The Reversal System: Only for the Elite at the Mahayana Stage

Arriving at an uninhabited place, Gong Zhifu slapped Jiang Zuchang, who spun twice in the air before landing, his mouth full of blood.

"You bastard, making me appoint you as the city lord of Qingcheng was my biggest mistake. If your ancestor wants to live a few more years, he can figure it out himself. Don't make us clean up after him!"

"You said that your ancestor practicing demonic cultivation was approved by the People's Emperor Jiang, right? Quickly contact the People's Emperor. Only he can save us now!"

Jiang Zuchang murmured and spat out the blood in his mouth, "The People's Emperor has always been the one to contact us. We have never contacted him."

Gong Zhifu now suspected that the People's Emperor didn't even know about Jiang Yixing's cultivation of demonic cultivation. Maybe the People's Emperor was truly impartial and had never turned back to the Jiang family.

But now, it was useless to investigate these things.

"So, the People's Emperor is unreliable, right?" Gong Zhifu's face was dark as if it could drip water. "There's only one plan that can work now."

"What is it? Send someone to kill Zhang Li?" Jiang Zuchang and Zeng Chengzhu asked quickly.

"Idiots, Zhang Li was killed as soon as he applied for time tracing. Killing him won't solve the problem. It will only slap the face of the court. If the court doesn't handle this matter, where will its dignity be? When it's investigated, we'll all be finished!" Gong Zhifu cursed loudly, his century-old cultivation destroyed twice in one day, once by Zhang Li and once by these two idiots.

"The Third Prince admires the People's Emperor's achievements, so he intends to promote us, the officials who have served as city lords in Qingcheng. We can only ask the Third Prince for help now, let him do time tracing to protect us, and then we'll have a chance to survive!"

"But who among us is qualified to see the Third Prince?"

Gong Zhifu sneered, "I'm not the only one who rose high after serving as the city lord of Qingcheng. Their positions are not low now. Now that the situation has been exposed, no one can run away. Let them help us find someone."

...

"The People's Emperor's cousin practices demonic cultivation, and he got the People's Emperor's approval for it. Is this true?!" The Third Prince stood up excitedly, his face full of disbelief.

"In response to Your Highness, it is true. I learned about this when I was an official in Qingcheng, and I was also shocked." These days, the officials who had served as city lords in Qingcheng used all their connections to finally get the opportunity to bring Gong Zhifu to the Third Prince.

After Gong Zhifu arrived in the capital, he rehearsed several times before daring to go to the Third Prince.

"The People's Emperor's position is high and his power is great. He only has a few close friends, so he values family ties especially. But as the People's Emperor, he cannot show it too obviously. He actually can't bear to see his cousin die, so he secretly instructed his cousin to practice demonic cultivation and break through the Nascent Soul stage to extend his lifespan."

"Now that the matter of the People's Emperor's cousin practicing demonic cultivation has been implemented by those two idiots, the matter of the People's Emperor's instruction to practice demonic cultivation may also be exposed. If that really happens, the People's Emperor's reputation will plummet, Your Highness!"

"If we cover up this matter, the People's Emperor may thank us when he finds out."

The Third Prince paced back and forth in the room, his eyes shining with joy, silently chanting "People's Emperor's reputation," "thank us," "People's Emperor is kind and can't bear to see his brother die," "brotherhood is stronger than demonic cultivation." Finally, he said to Gong Zhifu:

"I already know about this."

...

In the Xuanzheng Palace of the Great Zhou Dynasty, Ji Zhi, the friend of the protagonist, was a man with heavy pupils, a slender body, and a handsome face. Just sitting there gave people a sense of majesty and justice.

This was not an illusion, but a real feeling caused by the weight of the country on his shoulders.The fate and law of the Great Zhou Dynasty were closely related. The more just the law, the stronger the fate of the country. As a supporter of the country's fate, Zhou Emperor Ji Zhi could not bear the weight of the fate if he acted unfairly, and would eventually be crushed by it.

Ji Zhi read the memorials and applications for tracing time, and asked, "There is a Nascent Soul cultivator in Qingcheng who is suspected of practicing demonic cultivation. The lord of Qingcheng may be guilty of favoritism and destruction of evidence. Someone needs to go to Tianqing Prefecture to trace time. Who wants to go?"

Several princes and princesses remained silent. Doing well would have no reward, but doing poorly would have consequences. It was always the emperor who assigned two people, one to execute and one to supervise. Now it was just going through the motions.

"In response to Father Emperor, this child wishes to go." The third prince stood up, causing the other princes and princesses to look at him curiously, wondering why the third prince was so enthusiastic. Did he want to show off in front of Father Emperor?

"Then the third prince and the fourth prince will go. This matter is settled. Dismissed."

After the court was dismissed, the third prince called the fourth prince over.

"Fourth brother, come here."

The fourth prince frowned. His relationship with the third prince was not too good. They both had their eyes on the throne and had countless struggles, both open and hidden. Many ministers had already started taking sides.

Now he was called over, and the fourth prince could only think it was related to tracing time.

"Third brother, what's the matter?"

"Do you know the background of the case that Father Emperor asked us to trace time for?"

"Isn't it just that the lord of Qingcheng helped a Nascent Soul cultivator practice demonic cultivation?"

"That Nascent Soul cultivator's background is not simple. He is the cousin of the People's Emperor and the only peer relative of the People's Emperor."

"What?!" The fourth prince was shocked. When he first heard the third prince mention the background of the case, he didn't take it seriously. With the strength of the Great Zhou Dynasty, even if the other party was a Daoist, they would dare to act according to the law. They would catch those who needed to be caught and sentence those who needed to be sentenced.

Unless the other party had a background that even the Great Zhou Dynasty couldn't afford to provoke.

The identity of the People's Emperor's cousin and only relative met this background condition.

Moreover, if the People's Emperor's cousin practiced demonic cultivation, would the People's Emperor be unaware? The People's Emperor was incredibly powerful. Did he also practice demonic cultivation?

If the People's Emperor practiced demonic cultivation, would the Great Zhou Dynasty control him or not?

Thinking about it, the fourth prince was terrified. No wonder there was such a big background, but Father Emperor didn't mention it in court. Perhaps if he did, the final result would only be "there isn't" regardless of whether the People's Emperor's cousin practiced demonic cultivation or not!

The Great Zhou Dynasty had the power to control the People's Emperor, but not the ability to do so. After all, he was a Mahayana cultivator. The Great Zhou Dynasty using all its power would only be like a moth flying into a flame.

The fourth prince's thoughts turned quickly, and he quickly reached a secret agreement with the third prince.

Although they had conflicts, when it came to the face and survival of the Great Zhou Dynasty, they could temporarily reconcile.

...

The location for tracing time was set outside Qingcheng, so after submitting the application, Jiang Li and Yuan Wuxing returned to Qingcheng.

For the past few days, Yuan Wuxing had been living in fear. Rare Nascent Soul and Divine Transformation cultivators came to visit him, and they all used threats and inducements to ask Zhang Li to withdraw the application.

The reasons were nothing more than affecting the People's Emperor and the overall situation. Jiang Li was completely bored and uninterested in these people. He politely retorted to them.

One Divine Transformation cultivator's cultivation was not enough, and he was irritated by Jiang Li's "Do you understand anything about the People's Emperor?" He attacked in a rage, and Jiang Li immediately gave Yuan Wuxing a classic performance of a genius Nascent Soul defeating an old Divine Transformation cultivator.

Someone knocked on the door outside, and Yuan Wuxing reluctantly went to answer it.
