Chapter 853 -857: The Mad God Ming Meng
Xuange announced the hosting of this year’s Leader’s Conference, and on that day, Ming Meng God had also occupied a huge city at the very eastern edge of Xuange, killing a large number of the city’s guards and enslaving many of Xuange’s people, including a great number of God’s people and several God’s Descendants.
Having no choice, Xuange had to prepare for the Leader’s Conference while simultaneously sending Li Yunzi with an army to reclaim those territories occupied by Ming Meng God, and to redeem the enslaved God’s people and God’s Descendants.
The victory of Li Yunzi was crucial to the dignity of Xuange Divine Country.
After all, a God Country that was hosting the Tianshu Leaders’ Saintly Meeting, if still bullied and had its territories occupied by Ming Meng God, could easily lose its credibility. The leaders from different territories who would come to the meeting naturally would not take Xuange’s Saint Honor and deities seriously, and the difficulty of hosting the conference would greatly increase!
That was also why, after Li Yunzi’s victory, there were many voices of support, and she was even considered a new deity of worship by some citizens.
Ming Meng God was indeed brazen and arrogant.
Having just fought with Xuange, he now comes to Xuange as a leader and True God to attend the conference.
It was as if he was telling Xuange, “I, Ming Meng, come and go as I please, and you can do nothing about it!”
As for the matter of negotiating peace, it was even more like a pipe dream.
Ming Meng God hadn’t even discussed with the Tianshu a treaty for peaceful coexistence of territories, so how could he suddenly come in the midst of the Leader’s Conference wanting to negotiate peace?
“Can’t you see what his intentions are?” Nan Lingsha pondered from Li Yunzi’s perspective and asked Xuange.
“For so many years, he has learned how to avoid my gaze. He has some evil wizards around him… I have already left the God Forbidden Army and Worship Sage for you to command,” Xuange said.
“Now?” Nan Lingsha asked.
“Yes, now.”
“Alright,” Nan Lingsha nodded.
Zhu Minglang listened to their conversation and felt secretly anxious.
He had thought they narrowly escaped danger, but Xuange had come directly to them and had immediately arranged a very urgent matter.
This meant that Nan Lingsha must continue to impersonate Li Yunzi and take the God Forbidden Army that just attempted to capture her to negotiate with Ming Meng God.
“Lord Xuange, may I accompany my wife on this task?” Zhu Minglang spoke up.
“You may,” Xuange agreed, looking briefly in the direction of the White Domain and said softly, “Yuheng’s people will arrive in seven days. The people from Tianquan, Kaiyang, and Tianshu will follow one after another. Yunzi, Ming Meng God is a troublemaker, but right now Tianshu needs to show unity, or at least appear united. Otherwise, if the divided state of us True Gods becomes known, we will be greeted by the armies of Yuheng, Kaiyang, and Tianquan from the neighboring territories, and all of us may face the possibility of being annexed… If Ming Meng’s terms are not too excessive, you may agree to them, decide as you see fit.”
“Hmm,” Nan Lingsha replied casually, aware that Li Yunzi was not the sort of person to submit to others. Initially, Xuange had persuaded Li Yunzi to join Xuange by calling her a sister, but even Xuange might not be her deity of worship.
No need for honorifics, no need to perform grand salutations, and even no salutation could be acceptable.
“Then, Master Zhu will replace the War Saint on behalf of my Xuange Divine Country to ensure Yunzi’s safety…” Xuange said to Zhu Minglang.
There were implications in her words.
Zhu Minglang smiled and nodded, “I’ve always been very protective. Not to mention Ming Meng, even if an Immortal Monarch or Divine King from the heavens dared to bully my Yunzi, they would face utter annihilation.”
Xuange remained expressionless.
Flaunting affection in front of her?

Xuange turned and left.
Zhu Minglang hadn’t gotten a clear look at Xuange’s appearance; through the haze, she seemed indeed to be a beauty, but with rather deep bags under her eyes… As a deity, no amount of maintenance could hide the problem of deep eye bags. Clearly, she hadn’t slept the night before, staying up late cultivating…
…
“Xuange must really be targeting Yunzi this time,” Zhu Minglang said, feeling somewhat dissatisfied after Xuange left.
“She seems to like scheming,” Nan Lingsha also expressed her dissatisfaction with Xuange’s actions.
If she truly considered Li Yunzi as a sister, then she shouldn’t have used the matter of the Flowing God as a bargaining chip, even trying to use Nan Lingsha as leverage to control Li Yunzi.
“For now, you can only continue to play the part, and we will face Ming Meng God,” Zhu Minglang said.
Nan Lingsha nodded.
Given the current situation, the act must go on.
Xuange had just mentioned Zhi Rou, which meant she had actually visited the Mansion of Martial Saint earlier.
This means that Xuange, the Mechanist, might have foreseen a certain possibility… If she had seen Li Yunzi at the Mansion of Martial Saint, their act would have been exposed.
Li Yunzi was not present, thereby avoiding the Mechanist’s scheming.
“Perhaps Li Xinghua has awakened,” Nan Lingsha guessed.
“Yes, she must be aware of our situation here. My Immortal Soup has done a great service,” Zhu Minglang said.
As soon as Immortal Soup was mentioned, Nan Lingsha’s face turned a few shades uglier.
Only Li Xinghua’s prophetic abilities could have circumvented the Mechanist’s schemes; otherwise, following Nan Lingsha’s capture, Li Yunzi could but be at Xuange’s mercy.
…
Worship Sage Song Tao’s expression was peculiarly strange.
The Knowledge Saint Honor oversaw affairs great and small within the God Country, the Martial Saint ruled the God Army, and Worship Sage Song Tao commanded the God Forbidden Army, which was indeed his biggest leverage to stand on equal footing with the other two Saints.
But now, the God Forbidden Army was entirely at the Martial Saint’s beck and call.
This way, wasn’t he, the Worship Sage, completely deprived of his power?
Leading the God Forbidden Army, Nan Lingsha and Zhu Minglang headed towards White Holy City.
White Holy City was rather peripheral to God Capital; the Ming God, having offended many True Gods, naturally would not venture lightly into the center of the God Capital. Should those True Gods join forces to take his life, he alone would struggle to cope; in this White Holy City, though under the governance of the God Capital, should any disturbance arise, the Ming God would be able to withdraw promptly.
Besides the God Forbidden Army, the main forces and elites of the several Holy Cities, as well as some God’s Descendants and God Army Leaders surpassing King Level strength, were all converging on White Holy City. The peculiar behavior of the Ming God could not go unguarded against; should he not come to negotiate in good faith, a fierce battle was likely to ensue here.
…
Suddenly, White Holy City was completely deserted.
The Ming God, leading his Sword God Army, had arrived. Although he had not exercised any force, the people of White Holy City, having heard of the Ming God’s infamy, evacuated at the first chance, leaving the city a deserted place for negotiations.
Soon, the God Armies of the two Great God Countries occupied both sides of White Holy City. The central street pavilion around the fountain became the meeting place for the leaders of both sides.
In the pavilion, a robust man draped in a Red Dragon cloak was seated; his entire being radiated an ancient and barbaric aura. In front of him was placed a plate of lightly-steamed Holy Dragon meat which he was tearing into with big bites.
To his right, a slender and seductive woman sat; she had a pair of bewitching green eyes, skin as pale and translucent as ice, draped only in two fuzzy cloths, with all other parts of her body boldly exposed.
She held a wine cup, feeding him a mouthful of fine wine between his bites of meat.
“This White City is very beautiful, I like it,” said the woman with the green eyes coquettishly.
“Include this White Holy City in our peace negotiation terms,” the Ming God instructed a scholarly God’s Descendant behind him.
“Our God truly dotes on me,” she said.
“You’ve been with me for so many years, seldom asking anything of me, rarely expressing likes. It’s rare that you fancy this White Holy City, even if it takes raising an army, I will conquer it for you,” the Ming God said.
The green-eyed woman, thrilled by his words, pressed her body against the broad chest of the Ming God, almost hanging onto him, her waist swaying like a serpent.
At that moment, golden whirlwinds rushed in, intertwining within the pavilion at White City’s center, rapidly forming a thick golden barrier.
The God Forbidden Army descended like beams of golden light under this golden barrier, while at the same moment, Zhu Minglang, Nan Lingsha, Worship Sage, Xiang Shen, the man in tiger pelt, and the commander of the God Forbidden Army, six figures appeared in the pavilion.
Nan Lingsha walked at the forefront, a snow-white wind robe tied around her tall figure, the silver lining underneath outlining her lithe and curvy body.
She strode toward the pavilion commandeered by the Ming God. Rarely did Nan Lingsha showcase such a heroic air, and the golden-armored God Forbidden Army kept pace with her, maintaining a fixed distance behind her at all times.
In terms of momentum, the God Forbidden Army was by no means inferior to the Sword God Army.
Both sides represented the strongest God Armies of their respective God Countries, now clashing within White Holy City; it felt as though sudden winter had descended, their auras colliding and creating a gusting force above the Holy City!
The Ming God’s eyes were sharp, piercingly fixed on Nan Lingsha.
“Is she the Martial Saint, Li Yunzi?” the Ming God asked in surprise.
The Ming God had never crossed swords with Li Yunzi, only that some of his strongest subordinates suffered defeat repeatedly.
As a True God, the Ming God would not easily engage in war, unless a True God also appeared on the opponent’s battlefield.
“Yes… yes,” nodded the scholarly God’s Descendant behind him, his complexion turning unsightly. As a strategist for the Ming God Army, one of those defeated, the sight of Li Yunzi didn’t bode well.
“Such a peerless beauty… skilled in warfare, knowledgeable in military strategy, a ruling goddess of Ming that is truly a rare jewel,” standing, the Ming God revealed a smile, “I’ve changed my mind.”
“What does Our God mean?” the Military Advisor to the Divine Army asked, puzzled.
“Alter the peace negotiation terms once more. I decree that Xuange’s Martial Saint shall enter into a marriage alliance with my Ming God Clan, making Li Yunzi my lawful wife, to continue the lineage of the Ming God Clan,” the Ming God declared.
“Our God… what about me?” the woman with green eyes exclaimed in shock.
“Now that I look at you again, you seem dull and tasteless, be gone,” said the Ming God.
“How can you treat me this way, Our God, I…” the green-eyed woman said, her voice tinged with disbelief.
But the Ming God, with one hand, lifted her as if she were a bone picked clean, tossing her outside.
