485 Weird Change in the Buddhist Temple (2/2)
”Kind and moral?”
The old man mocked himself as he looked at his palm. A ball of energy rose from within, showing a golden yellow color.
The emperor path secret technique of Great Shang was called the dragon emperor nine defense art. It had 12 grades. He was the 2nd person out of all generations of Great Shang to cultivate in the 12th realm. His cultivation depth was deep, and even exceeded that of his father--when he was alive.
Even god realm experts need to bow down and acknowledge him!
He was also praised by people as a resurgent ruler, a saint ruler.
These few years, when he was on the throne, he went all out. He focused on politics and as a ruler, never neglected it a single bit. When he ascended at a young age, he gritted his teeth. Finally managing to fix this large boat of Great Shang dynasty which was leaking all over.
However, even so, the old man knew that he was far from being a saint ruler.
He was too far away from the so called saint emperors of the ancient era.
Although he couldn't see it, he knew that there were many other colors in the emperor's path energy that he gathered. He was even stronger than his ancestors, but there was a limit to it.
There were even several times where he saw the imperial teacher, as well as the several devotees who had special abilities, look at him with pity.
”Imperial tutor, imperial tutor, in the past you taught me the way of the ruler. The comprehension of absolute integrity, genial development of the common people and endless pursuit of the perfection of humanities. Distant myself from despicable people and be close to smart ones. To believe in the way the Confucians rule the country. To be diligent, to understand the lives of the commoners. If I am a good leader, the people will respect me and treat me sincerely. If I am trustable, people will serve me well. Asking myself about it, I have done all of this. However, why in the eyes of the heaven path am I not better than an ordinary lord Why are Great Shang's foundations still shaky? Was I wrong or was the Confucian path itself not right?”
His gaze was dark, and his expression also slowly turned sharp. He clenched his fists as one heard a ”peng” sound.
In that instance, snow flew upwards in the land a full 100 thousand feet in front of the emperor robed old man. All flowers and plants were all crushed into dust.
When the internal affairs junior supervisor saw that, his pupils constricted, his head covered in cold sweat. However, he didn't dare to walk away. Instead, he bowed, ”Your majesty, please calm down!”
The old man seemed to be in total focus, and his expression was vicious. When he heard the words of Gao Ruo, he came back to his senses and calmed down,
”Rise! I lost control of myself!”
He waved his sleeves. It seems like the snow was slowly stopping. It only then did the emperor robed old man slightly at ease. He didn't want to remain here any longer. Just as he was about to turn around to step into the hall, he saw that at the corner of the imperial garden laid several broken corpses.
Amongst the scattered snow in the garden, there was some blood within. It was like their bodies were crushed into dust too.
The old man's brows furrowed and stopped caring about it. These people were just servants of his family so if they died then so be it.
”Bury them and compensate their families greatly.”
Such an arrangement was already showing great kindness.
He casually instructed some words before he made his way into the building. He saw that there were tens of golden-colored documents hanging on the windows at his 2 sides.
Gao Ruo didn't even need him to instruct as he took those documents. Right as he was about to place them on the table, the old man waved his hands in exhaustion.
Gao Ruo instantly understood, flipping open one of them. Just one look and his expression became weird. Following which he flipped another one, his eyes looking even weirder.
At this moment the old man also noticed that Gao Ruo's eyes were unusual. His brows rising as he said flatly, ”Why aren't you reading the documents?”
Gao Ruo didn't reply, flipping over several more documents. It wasn't until impatience appeared in the eyes of the old man, did he bow and reply, ”Your majesty, the contents are mostly similar. Within our Great Shang border, tens of states all snowed at the same time. Not only us, the other parts of the central continent, the 4 continents and the 12 islands all had snow. Even the 10 shrines, 19 spiritual houses, even 5 vast habitats are no exceptions…”
When the emperor robed old man heard that, he was shocked. He didn't understand what was going on.
If it was just the 5 continents and the 12 islands, then it was still okay. Even the shrines and spiritual houses, even the vast habitats which were half independent away from the land. There was snow there too?
Although the imperial teacher had mentioned this wouldn't affect the luck of the country but how wouldn't he be worried?
Just as he was in deep thought, Gao Ruo flipped to another document. His pupils constricting, ”Your majesty, today Jianan Cave, Two world Shanming Temple, White Horse Temple, Xiangguo Temple, etc many temples. The Buddha statues like the Vairocana, Dipamkarara, Ksana, Loka, etc all shook continuously, shining out brightly. All the north walls of the temples all collapsed with no exception.”
The old man was startled once more. A moment later he calmed down, ”Which means that this change is due to the Buddhists?”
The official within had started to quietly jot down, in his book he wrote ”Yuanchen 27th year June 13th, emperor capital snows, his majesty is worried the snow would cause a disaster which was why he lost his composure. When the snow stopped and he heard that the cloud world snowed, weird things happening in the temples, the emperor started to be at ease” a few lines of words.
