Chapter 109: The Tai Xu Pavilion Members, Inspecting on Beha
lothing were never a concern. But whereas he used to gather friends at Wangjiang Tower, he now could only buy wine on the street and seek his dreams in dingy taverns.He hated it, but there was nothing...Silence fell over the room.
Huang Sheli remained silent.

This was Jiang Wang's first time at a Taixu Conference like this, delivering his fury with thunder.
Of course, it wasn't that he couldn't control his emotions. Rather, he was using those emotions to express his attitude—whether out of good intentions, bad intentions, or something else entirely. Don't try to dissuade him! No one needs to!
After a moment of silence, the screenwriter spoke: "What does Mr. Jiang mean"
"There's one more thing I haven't told you all." Jiang Wang reached out and grabbed a bamboo slip from the scattered pile, holding it up. "This matter is serious."
“Someone reported to the Lord of the Vast Expanse that there was a land grab incident in our Illusory Realm of Vast Expanse. The system of Blessed Lands was originally built by the Lord of the Vast Expanse for the sake of the divine cultivators of all realms to improve their cultivation. He contributed his own cave heaven treasure in exchange for seventy-two Blessed Lands, hoping that humanity would prosper and everyone could enjoy the blessed lands.”
>Nowadays, there are people who, relying on their cultivation, block the threshold of blessed lands, allowing only those from their own country to enter and forbidding those who come later. They aim to monopolize all the blessed lands!
“What kind of behavior is this It violates the fundamental principles of the Illusory Realm and goes against the original intentions of Lord Tai Xu. To be greedy for personal gain while neglecting the needs of humanity is detrimental to the human race and only benefits one's own nation! Who is this person 1
Jiang Wangdao: "Chen Suan of the State of Jing. I probably don't need to introduce myself to you all, right"
“No recollection.” Dou Zhao frowned. “Who is he”

With a bright smile, Cang Ming answered enthusiastically: "I am from Penglai Island and a direct disciple of the Eastern Celestial Master. I was also the cultivator who was originally supposed to compete in the outer courtyard at last year's Yellow River Assembly."
>
Dou Zhao simply replied with an "oh."
He can't even remember how many times he was on the field, let alone those who didn't play.
But he was very clear about the nature of this matter.
It's not just about how terrible Chen has done...
Xiao Linzheng was not from a prominent family in Jingguo, and Zhong Zh柔 was just an ordinary person with no power or influence.
Only this Chen Suan is a genuine prodigy of the Jing Guo. The very top tier! His background and talent are both first-rate, able to firmly "secure" his position in the fiercely competitive blessed land. His strength needless to say.
Jiang Wang wanted to provoke Chen Suan. That meant he had no intention of easing relations with Jing Guo.
Has the conflict gone this deep
How did we get here
"The challenges for blessed lands are becoming increasingly difficult, and even the lower-ranked ones are overcrowded. I've heard this with my own ears…" Qin Zhizhen pondered, "But I always thought it was because the Illusory Realm of Taixu was growing larger and more powerful, leading to an abundance of strong Human warriors. I never expected that Jing Guo could come up with a new trick. What does Chen Suan mean by this Does he intend to treat blessed lands as private property belonging to Jing Guo"
“The final investigation into Tianxia City's case concluded that there was no evidence. They even tried to request information about the reporter from Lord Tai Xu, claiming it was to confirm the situation…” Jiang Wang shook his head, a hint of bitterness on his face. This bitterness was half for himself and half for Taixu Pavilion: “Everyone, Taixu Pavilion has only been established for less than a year. Has it already begun to decay”
"I know each of you has a sense of belonging, something to rely on, and something you are seeking. You stand here not only representing yourselves, but also as members of this group. However, I want to ask, what are your thoughts on this world as members of this body"
"I would like to ask, when you travel the world, people address you as 'venerable elders.' How do you respond to such respect"
I know the world is ruled by strength. But I ask, is there no pure land in this world
"My friends! You need not answer me! The answer lies within yourselves. "

Jiang Wang stood up from his chair and walked slowly to the center, bathed in light while all other members of the council were shrouded in the shadow of power. The shadow of power surrounded him.
The young members of the cabinet, swords at their waists, left no doubt about their readiness to draw them. "I now propose," said Jiang Wang, "that I, as a member of Tai Xu Cabinet, initiate an investigation into Heavenly City."
He stood tall, like a solitary peak: “I admit I had personal feelings and acted foolishly because of them! But I promise you, my actions will always uphold the fairness and justice sought by Taixu Pavilion. No matter who is involved, no matter what the circumstances, no matter how much resistance I face, I will investigate to the bottom. As long as I, Jiang Wang, am alive, I will bring back a just result.”
He scanned the room, his gaze locking with each member: "Now, vote."
The resolution concerning the investigation of Tianxia City thus began.
Li Yi, who was absent from the meeting, could not speak up for this -- although Jiang Wang had already prepared for Li Yi to stand out.
This is a groundbreaking proposal, perhaps the first time Tai Xu Pavilion has conducted self-examination and correction since its establishment. Its influence will inevitably be far-reaching. And this is only the fourth Tai Xu Conference.
The director sat there coldly, finally stating: "Although the incident with the blessed land placement was extremely serious, things are prioritized. It is premature to launch an investigation into Your Excellency's Heaven City before Chen Suan's responsibility is settled. I think we can first investigate the blessed land placement incident and gather concrete evidence. Then, based on the results of the investigation, we can discuss subsequent matters -- for this decision by Elder Jiang, I abstain."
>
As the chairman of this meeting, he had two votes. Both were cast aside.
In the glow, Jiang Wang's expression was calm.
He calmly waited for all the results.
Huang Sheli said, "I... abstain."
“I support it.” Chongxuan’s response was concise and to the point.

"I agree with the guild member's opinion." Qin Zhizhen pondered for a moment before slowly saying, "I support the investigation into Chen Suan, but I do not support the investigation into Tianxia City. Therefore, I oppose this resolution."
Supporting an investigation into Chen Suan is based on the interests of the Qin state. Not supporting an investigation into Tianxia City is also based on the interests of the Qin state.
Today, you can check the cities of the world, tomorrow you can check even the West Pole.
Jiang Wang can cause trouble for Jing Guo, but he cannot threaten the interests of all hegemonic nations.
At present, there is one vote in support, one vote against, and three abstentions.
Jiang Wang himself was one vote in support, and there were three votes left.
"Wang Kun's actions are too reckless. We should investigate Tianxia City." Cang Ming's expression was hidden beneath his cloak: "I support this."
>
Zhong Xuan thought for a moment, and finally said: "Historians only record history, so they often have to lament the regrets in history. Today, I, Zhong Xuan, am fortunate to be sitting here, slightly influencing things. So I hope that future historians can record fewer regrets – sorry everyone, I've climbed onto the moral high ground again. It's human nature to inevitably boast about oneself, isn't it"

He shook his head wryly and said, “I support Councillor Jiang. I not only support Councillor Jiang's investigation into Tianxia City, but if one day he investigates my Dao Bi Xuan, I will also support him. A person lives a lifetime, shouldn't they leave something behind Historian Shi's vote is for purity.”
“Zhao Yi slapped the armrest and said, “I don’t have much to say, just one thing – Jiang, since you are so determined, then investigate thoroughly, and don’t back down when you encounter a prince or grandson. I give you my full support, I want to see the drama!”
Jiang Wang's face held no expression. He simply announced calmly, "Five votes in favor, one vote against, three abstentions. The resolution passes. I will uphold the decision of you all and, on behalf of Taixu Pavilion and Taixu Fantasy Realm, initiate an investigation into Tianxia City."
“Before we proceed, I need to say that -- this decision has been met with support, abstentions, and opposition. However, the vote has already taken place, and it represents the final decision of our Taixu Pavilion, signifying that all of you agree with this matter.”
He narrowed his eyes, gazing at every member of the council: "I require your unwavering support. This is not a request. It is your duty, your responsibility."
>
Having said that, he turned and disappeared into the room alone.
The remaining seven members were still seated.
Nine chairs for the cabinet members encircled the light hanging in the middle, with two empty seats directly opposite each other.
Near yet far.

"Who can tell me..." Dou Zhao looked left and right: "What happened over there with Minister Jiang I'm very curious 1
"
>
Nobody answered him.
Huang Sheli was the first to get up and leave his seat.
Council members gradually dispersed.
Just as Jiang Wang's foot left the Tai Xu Pavilion, it landed firmly in the vast expanse of emptiness.
The void has nothing, but is watched over by the Tai Xu Dao Master.
Today, he will represent Tai Xu Ge and investigate Tianxia City, touching upon Jing Guo. He should expound his thoughts to the Master of Tai Xu Dao.
He had indeed prepared a clear plan and solid reasons, but when he stood here, he suddenly didn't want to say any of it.
>
No matter how people speculate about the previous void-dwelling, Tai Xu Daozhu's current form of existence can be said to be the most selfless person in the world.
Just as the sun and moon, suspended in the vast ethereal realm, illuminate every corner of it, so too does their light shine upon the hearts of every practitioner in the void.
Lowly, or noble
Jiang Wang slowly said: “When I walked down the steps of the mortal realm, I told myself that my ability to enter Tai Xu Pavilion and take this seat was not because I was extraordinary, but because I had indeed done some right things in the past. It was because everyone trusted me. My becoming a member of Tai Xu Pavilion doesn't represent anyone's interests, only my own.”
"I'm not a very smart person who can figure out all the problems. I'm not always right. But I sincerely hope that after becoming a member of Taixu Pavilion, I can make choices as close to the original intention of Taixu Pavilion as possible. I've been working hard at this."
“Today I said some lofty words, and I also learned to suppress others with righteousness. I will continue to do so. But I cannot deceive myself; my investigation into Tianxia City was not entirely out of justice, and it can even be said that it was more due to my personal feelings.”
"Perhaps I am not qualified enough to be a member of the Tai Xu Pavilion, but today I must hold onto this identity."
"Because I've already thought of all the possibilities."
“I will use everything at my disposal to achieve what I want. This includes utilizing the Illusory Realm and the Vast Expanse Pavilion.”
"It is a pity that such a great creation should be tainted by my stubborn personal desires."
The only thing I can be certain of is that—I will not frame innocent people, and I will not let evil go unpunished. Apart from that, I am unsure to what extent I will be able to do anything.
"I am very afraid of myself now."

"I hope they are too."
After saying these things calmly, Jiang Wang turned and left.
He didn't expect Tai Xu Daozhu to respond, but it was because of Tai Xu Daozhu's special nature. He confided his heart here, seeking a moment of peace.
But at this time, in the vast emptiness of space, a high and distant voice sounded --
>
"Everyone has their own self-interest, and those without are not human."
Just this one sentence, no more than a whisper.
On Mount Tai Xu, various halls stood separately, each hall responsible for its own affairs and not under the jurisdiction of others.
Of course, Tianxia City was in charge of Wang Kun. Li Yilian would not attend the Tai Xu meeting if he could avoid it. It is impossible for him to manage the Pavilion.
Let me know if you have other text to translate! I'm happy to help.
In the vast Taixu Mountain, alone in his grand hall, he rules over numerous departments and subordinates. With the exception of attending meetings, Daili Xingyi has relinquished almost all power... Today's King Kun is indeed enjoying great success.
Of course, he didn't achieve the best outcome and Li Yi wasn't able to sit on that chair in Taixu Pavilion. But after Taixu Pavilion truly developed and gained a significant position in the hearts of the people, Wang Kun truly felt the immense power he held.
All matters concerning the Void Realm within the Kingdom of Jing were ultimately handled by Tianxia City. Whether an action was considered a violation or not depended entirely on his judgment.
He was once considered a prodigy and had even fought on the Star Moon Battlefield, but compared to Xu San and Pei Hongjiu, he was relatively unknown. The Wang family in Jing Guo wasn't even a top-tier clan.
All prodigies have pride, and no one is willing to be Li Yi's representative, acting as a manager in Tianxia City. Only he steps forward to seek a future for himself.
What about now
Even Chen Suan has to greet him before doing anything!
The taste of power is indescribable.
Of course, as a shrewd man, he especially knew where this power came from. So he unwaveringly protected the people of Jing Guo. In any trivial matter, he clearly demonstrated his unwavering stance.
Other departments more or less had some reservations and maintained relative fairness, sometimes even slapping themselves thirty times to show disapproval. But in his case, he didn't even bother with the formality of a three-cup penalty drink.
If outsiders harm Jing people, they will definitely be investigated thoroughly and not tolerated. If Jing people harm outsiders, it's either "no such thing" or "purely a rumor".
At this moment, he was in his study discussing the arrangements for the Tai Xu incident with several confidants, when suddenly a loud shout rang out across the city: "Where is Wang Kun"
Wang Kun frowned, stepped out of the study, and leaped into the air: "Who is making such a racket in my Tianxia City"
In the city, countless cultivators followed suit, momentarily numbering in the thousands as they ascended into the sky with him. The extraordinary auras intertwined, forming a truly imposing spectacle!
"Elder Jiang Ge and Wang Kun, from afar, saw Jiang Wang standing high in the sky. Wang Kun respectfully greeted him, saying: “You are a distinguished person! It's hard to even see you once in a lifetime! Today, how come you have time to come to Tianxia City and give me some advice on my work”
Jiang Wang glanced at him and announced in a calm voice, “The latest decision of Tai Xu Pavilion is to have this pavilion's representative, Tai Xu Huan Jing, investigate Tianxia City. Until the investigation results are out, all members of Tai Xia City are prohibited from leaving the city, and entry into Tai Xu Huan Jing is also forbidden. Do you understand”
He didn't need to raise his voice, his words naturally reached the ears of all the cultivators in the city, causing an immediate uproar!
Wang Kun was stunned: "Investigate what What right do you have"
"Do you object" Jiang Wang asked.
"Of course I object!" Wang Kun roared, leaning forward. "I don't even know what's going on—"
"While Li Jiang was about to interrupt him, he flipped his palm and pressed down immediately."
At that moment, all the cultivators who had ascended into the sky throughout the entire Heavenly City felt an overwhelmingly powerful pressure, directly forcing them back into the city walls.
When it rises, it is like a flame shooting into the sky. When it falls, it is like rain falling to the dust.
>
At the same time, the four city gates were closed, cutting off all traffic. An invisible but tangible light shield blocked everyone who wanted to rush out.
The Tai Xu Pavilion members hold the supreme authority over Mount Tai Xu, and at this moment, they have sealed off Heavenly City!
And Wang Kun, had already been unconsciously pressed under Jiang Wang's palm.
He had no chance to fight back, nor the qualification to talk.
Jiang Wang then carried the person in charge of Tianxia City, taking a step beyond the void. He appeared outside Jing Guo's border city. Then, high above, amidst the startled cries of the guards and Wang Kun's resistance, he soared across the sky, piercing through the sea of clouds for thousands of miles, stirring up fierce winds and leaving behind a magnificent rainbow!
He could have teleported directly to the Heavenly Capital, taking a single step. This was something agreed upon at the initial grand alliance of all factions. Yet, he chose to fly over the borders arrogantly and ostentatiously.
In the grand Imperial Kingdom of Dajing, masters are everywhere. Naturally, some people can't stand it.
Immediately, a powerful figure soared into the air: "Who dares to intrude upon the airspace of the Great Jing Empire"
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
Jiang Wang didn't say a word, slapping the man with a resounding palm that sent him flying back into the city. "Tai Xu Pavilion members, appointed to patrol on behalf of heaven, traversing all realms – do you have any objections"
Thanks to book friend "Aseed" for becoming the patron of this book! It is the 655th alliance for Red Heart Heaven Patrol! of Kule. If that yellow-faced old monk heard about it, he would definitely be overjoyed.Even within the Buddhist territory of Xuankong Temple, few people knew about his suffering, let alone called hi...
