If one were to rank the divine skills, the “Words Become Laws” Great Divine Power would certainly rank in the top ten.

“Words Become Laws” is a divine skill that the Dao Ancestor of the Immortal Realm created, where one’s words meddle with life and death, shift day into night, turn the orderly into chaos, it is a truly terrifying power.

Legend has it that the Dao Ancestor spent a total of seven times seven or forty-nine years in seclusion in the celestial realm to create the “Words Become Laws” a power that seekers of the Dao pursue their entire lives.

However, the immortal elder shared the real cause of this with Jiang Li and others privately.

There was a time when the Dao Ancestor enjoyed tongue twisters and often ruminated on ‘eating grapes without spitting their skin, slyly spitting grape skin without eating the grapes’.

The Sage found it strange and asked, how easy it is to eat grapes without spitting the skins, but how could one spit grape skins if one doesn’t eat grapes?

The Dao Ancestor agreed, and thus, he secluded himself in the celestial realm for forty-nine years and created the Great Divine Power, “Words Become Laws,” which finally solved the paradox of spitting grape skins without eating grapes.

When Jiang Li heard this story from the ancient immortal elder, his image of the Dao Ancestor drastically changed.

Originally, he thought that the Dao Ancestor’s personality was similar to his own, but he didn’t expect the Dao Ancestor’s true character to be more like Bai Hongtu’s.

“So what, you’re just ignorant. You’ve never heard of the stories about the Dao Ancestor of the Immortal Realm before. When I was a child following my ancient master, I’d hear him tell stories of the Dao Ancestor every day.”

“From a young age, I aspired to become someone like the Dao Ancestor.” Bai Hongtu disclosed his magnificent ambition.

“What did you want to be when you were little?” Bai Hongtu asked Jiang Li.

Jiang Li thought for a moment and replied, “When I was young, I wanted to be a scientist, and as I grew older, I wanted to be a person who upholds fairness and justice.”

“Then, you should have achieved it.”

The two were strolling inside the Emperor Tianyuan City, casually chatting while using their divine sense to scan the everyone inside the Imperial City.

Noble families, clannish prejudice, evil deeds, all were still present, but compared with before, it had greatly reduced, it was evident that Yu Yin had put in tremendous efforts in regulating the order of the Emperor Tianyuan Dynasty.

“Speaking of which, it seems that Yu Yin was not always like she is now.”

Jiang Li thought about Yu Yin’s initial icy cold demeanor and her expressionless face in the Remote Communication Talisman, he didn’t quite understand the meaning of Bai Hongtu’s words.

Bai Hongtu brought Jiang Li to a tea house, where they drank tea and ate cakes, and he said. “Probably due to her upbringing, I knew that she was a person who believed in the might is right concept right from the beginning when I first met Yu Yin.”

“Later on, she became a candidate for the Human Emperor and interacted more with you, me, and Ji Zhi, which slowly led to some changes.”

“Much of the credit goes to you because you were always preaching about how order is the best in a country and it was your ideal nation. You said that reason is the most important thing in the world, not brute force, and people should act reasonably.”

Jiang Li chuckled and shook his head, thinking Bai Hongtu was making wild guesses. “Why didn’t we just go and find Yu Yin directly, instead of disguising ourselves here and walking slowly to the Imperial Palace?”

Bai Hongtu pointed his finger and swung it left and right, boasting, “Don’t you understand, what is this place? It’s the most chaotic Emperor Tianyuan Dynasty, how can we not play dumb here?”

“Just listen to me, within two hours, some self-righteous young master will come here to flaunt his power, saying that he has reserved the whole place and asking us to get out. We’ll calmly drink tea and refuse to leave. Then the conflict will escalate, the young master will send his steward to throw us out, we defeat the steward, then the young master summons the family’s messengers, and we defeat them as well. He even asks his father to step in, and we defeat his father too, and finally, he implores his grandfather who is a court official to intervene.”

“His grandfather, leading the army, surrounds us with a ferocious smile, claiming that no one has ever dared to insult his grandson in Tianyuan Emperor City. At this point, Yu Yin appears, revealing our identities. The young master’s grandfather is horrified, everyone is in shock, and we are invited into the palace by Yu Yin. Perfect!”

Jiang Li glanced behind Bai Hongtu and asked, “Isn’t it inappropriate to keep Yu Yin waiting?”

“Let her wait, we can say we got lost.” Bai Hongtu didn’t seem to mind.

Jiang Li looked at the charming figure behind Bai Hongtu again and kindly suggested, “Why don’t you turn around, perhaps you can meet someone familiar?”

Bai Hongtu turned around only to meet the terrifying cold smile on Yu Yin’s face.

Jiang Li sincerely said, “Isn’t this great, directly skipping the complex process and straight to the big finale, with Yu Yin surfacing to greet you and shocking everyone.”

Without any disguise, Yu Yin showed up in the teahouse, behind Bai Hongtu.

Upon seeing their majesty personally, everyone in the tea house instinctively left their seats and stood in their places, their faces showing admiration and longing.

There are frequent rumors among the common people that Yu Yin often comes incognito to redress people’s grievances and that Yu Yin rules over the court with absolute power and command…

All these rumors are positive, making Yu Yin extremely popular among the people.

“So, I should invite you two over?” Yu Yin looked at the two men with a seemingly amused expression, which made the two feel a chill down their spines.

Jiang Li quickly denied his involvement, “Bai Hongtu just lost his way earlier, I just found him and was about to bring him to you.”

“Yes, yes, I lost my way.” Bai Hongtu agreed.

Both men revealed their true identities, causing a buzz among the crowd, their voices shaking and their bodies involuntarily trembling.

The strongest Human Emperor amongst all the predecessors, Jiang Li!

The strongest Dao Sect Master amongst all the predecessors, Bai Hongtu!

And the strongest of the nine monarchs, Imperial Yu Yin!

The fact that they could see these three in person was a great blessing.

“Let’s go.”

Yu Yin turned around briskly, Jiang Li and Bai Hongtu quickly followed suit.

On the way back, Bai Hongtu curiously asked, “How did you discover us? We didn’t even sense your divine sense coming towards us.”

Without looking back, Yu Yin replied, “I asked the City Gate Guard to pay keen attention, if some people entered who seemed to be here for leisure and didn’t take anything seriously, they were to report to me.”

“It must have been you who got exposed.”

“No, it was you.”

The two quietly pointed the blame towards each other.

“I asked the city gate guards to pay attention to two people.” Yu Yin knew what they were doing without a glance at them.

“…”

The two immediately fell silent.

Jiang Li and Bai Hongtu reflected profoundly, feeling that they should always maintain a serious appearance in future, even if they have nothing important to do.

Instead of bringing the two into the palace, Yu Yin led them to a mountain outside the city.

This was the Imperial Forest, a place Yu Yin often visited in her spare time. She would lie on a wooden chair, quietly reading a romance novel, listening to the babbling sound of the waterfall, enjoying the cool mountain breeze, it was extremely pleasant.

Sometimes, when she got sleepy from reading, she would have the Ruyi gourd read for her while she dozed off on the wooden chair.

Yu Yin also found painting inspiration here and practiced her Tao of painting. After learning the way of the music, she would even play tunes similar to High Mountain and Flowing water.

It was here that she comprehended the “Words Become Laws”.

Yu Yin placed the Ruyi Gourd on the wooden table, “I’ll teach both of you how to display the ‘Words Become Laws’ right here.”
