He smiled, "I believe that if the new dynasty continues on this path, the sun and moon will shine bright, the starry sky will appear. By then, we will no longer need the Outer Heaven True God, because the real sun and moon will hang in the sky. Mr. Feng, I still need to connect with other capable ministers, farewell!"
Eunuch Feng watched him depart, feeling a surge of inexplicable emotion, like a hot current swirling around his heart.
"Mr. Chen, will the era you envisioned truly co to pass?"
After a mont, he turned and left, thinking to himself, "Though we eunuchs lack certain parts, we must strive for others to have them!"
He returned to Qingshi Lane and pushed open a black door. Behind the door was the old Feng family residence. Originally, this lane was a place where the poor lived, but after Eunuch Feng beca a Chamberlain in the Western Capital, he spent money to renovate it, repairing the hos of the poor in the lane.
In the old Feng family residence, several young eunuchs ca up to him. Once they reached the front hall, Eunuch Feng sat down and ordered, "Imdiately gather the skilled hands of the Eastern Factory and connect with the Eastern Factory's forces in various places. Our West Bull New Continent is about to have a True King."
The eunuchs acknowledged and hastily departed.
The Eastern Factory had always been the court's most important intelligence office, with its own ans to quickly connect with Eastern Factory experts across various regions.
Eunuch Feng closed his eyes to rest, quietly waiting.
By evening, Qingshi Lane fell silent. The once noisy lane, where the sounds of children playing with shuttlecocks, won gossiping by the door, drunk n shouting, and old n coughing could be heard, suddenly beca as silent as a grave.
The sound of a creaking door ca, as two tall figures walked through, kneeling with a thump when they reached the front hall.
Eunuch Feng opened his eyes and laughed, "Bai Sihai, Yan Shuangtian, you have indeed co."
The two n kneeling were his adopted sons Bai Sihai and Yan Shuangtian, also eunuchs. Previously, in the Western Capital, the two supported the prince against Chen Shi and Chen Tang and were dismissed from their positions.
Bai Sihai kowtowed and said, "Father, your kindness to us is as heavy as a mountain. We sons were unable to care for you in your old age and feel deeply ashad! We have co to make ands!"
He kowtowed heavily, the sound echoing loudly.
Yan Shuangtian also kowtowed beside him, choking with emotion, "Originally, we had our ambitions curtailed and entered the palace as low-ranking eunuchs, powerless, all thanks to father's nurturing—teaching us to read and write, training us in cultivation. Without father, we would not be where we are today! Yet we, out of foolishness, repeatedly opposed father, our conscience devoured by dogs!"
His kowtowing was even louder than Bai Sihai's.
Eunuch Feng watched them with a smile and said, "Now that you know your mistakes and can change, can I still hold onto the previous errors you committed? After all, you are my good sons, rise."
Bai Sihai, tearful and choked with emotion, said, "I will not rise! Thinking about sending father off with my own hands fills with even more regret!"
Yan Shuangtian cried, "Father, you have been wise all your life, why seek rebellion? Today, we sons must act righteously, even if it ans killing our own kin!"
Eunuch Feng's smile blood like a flower on his face, "Good sons, truly worthy sons of our family."
Bai Sihai wiped away his tears and looked up with a smile, "That is because father taught us well."
Eunuch Feng sighed, "I taught you to read and write but forgot to teach you how to be good people; that is my fault. If you can correct your paths and go with to Xinxiang Imperial City, assist the True King, and serve the True King, I can still assure you of wealth and honor."
"Father, you must be old now to be so bewildered?"
Yan Shuangtian said, "The court is of the Zhu surna, not the Chen!"
"Where has the Zhu surna been in the past six thousand years?"
Eunuch Feng slamd the table angrily, "It is the Thirteen Families that hold power, not the Zhu surna! The Thirteen Families act with the authority of the True King, if not in na, then in deed, which is an overstep, a betrayal!"
He lanted bitterly, "I taught you to read, taught you to cultivate, so you could limit the power of the Thirteen Families, not so you could collude with them! Is it Laozi who cut your parts off? No! It's the Thirteen Families! We can only limit their power by cutting off our own parts!"
He was so infuriated that his body trembled as he stood up, "Bai Sihai, Yan Shuangtian, I know you two still have influence in the Eastern Factory; my every move cannot escape your notice. So I purposely let the news slip, to use this opportunity to cleanse the Eastern Factory of disobedient elents."
Yan Shuangtian and Bai Sihai exchanged glances and slowly stood up. Bai Sihai, seized by sorrow, choked out, "Father, we co to kill you also for the sake of the Eastern Factory, father, do not bla us!"
Before he finished speaking, he attacked fiercely!
He practiced the Taiyin Spirit Treasure Scripture, passed down by the prince. This cultivation thod involves the Inner Refining of Five Organs and Six Hollow Organs, with various talismans imprinted on oneself, treating the body as a Magical Treasure for cultivation, even requiring the consumption of Black Dog Blood for offerings. When reaching a high realm, one can transform into forms of bells, tripods, towers, brushes, ink, paper, inkstones, blades, spears, swords, halberds, and other Magical Treasure forms with astonishing power.
Yan Shuangtian also cultivates the Taiyin Spirit Treasure Scripture. Originally, they practiced other cultivation techniques, but after the prince taught them this one, they primarily cultivated the Taiyin Spirit Treasure Scripture.
Bai Sihai leaped into the air, transforming mid-air into a large tripod, with the internal space as the Void Great Realm, where the sun and moon rise and fall, starlight fills the atmosphere, and various mysterious and inscrutable talismanic patterns appear on the tripod walls, resembling Divine beings standing on the tripod walls.
The large tripod, dozens of feet high, roared and spun, carrying imnse power as it attacked Eunuch Feng. The might of the tripod spread, shattering the surrounding buildings with cracking sounds, causing the ground to fissure, as everything was about to turn to dust.
