Which deity would be willing to bear such a huge karmic burden? After rescuing Bai Suzhen, they can simply stay in the Marquis's mansion.
Surely no deity would personally intervene and forcibly seize the wives of feudal lords by then? That would be direct interference in the struggle for power among mortals!
Since ancient times, since the Three Dynasties, since the immortals like Guang Chengzi, who has dared to do this? Not a single one!
After all, unless the celestial being directly intervenes, it will be impossible to harm Bai Suzhen.
If a celestial being were to actually make a move, he would most likely be wiped out due to the karma of tens of millions of people. Even if he didn't die, his cultivation would be greatly reduced, and his strength would be reduced to less than one-tenth of what it was!
When the time comes, if a calamity is encountered, there's a high chance they'll have to face it! Therefore, after Xu Xian opens Peach Mountain and rebels, the most likely thing the immortals will do is wait!
When Xu Xian's rebellion fails, or the power he built disappears, it will only be a few hundred years at most. Why bother fighting over temporary gains and losses?
Simply put, I'm just going to quietly watch you show off!
Upon hearing Xu Xian's words, Bai Suzhen could sense the immense determination contained within them.
The world is vying for power, creating a massive vortex. Moreover, Xu Xian possesses formidable cultivation, which is itself forbidden by the immortals and gods!
The Human Emperor was forbidden from cultivating immortality, haha, wasn't it because he was afraid that he would encounter a wise and enlightened emperor who would then directly rule over the immortals?
"My lord, how are your preparations going? Are you confident?"
"Haha, you're good at cultivation, but when it comes to rebellion and vying for supremacy, that's where I'm the expert. I currently command 200,000 elite troops, all top-notch heroes, in addition to 10 million shi of grain and 600,000 sets of armor..."

Chapter Thirty-Seven: The Uprising Against the Serpent, Crimson Sky!
Before they knew it, dawn broke again. Xu Xian, by the cave, stayed with Bai Suzhen, talking intimately for a whole day and night.
Looking at the rising sun, its rays shining upon him, Xu Xian lazily shifted and said, "My wife, please rest for a moment and recharge your energy. In a little while, everything will be very different, very different!"
Are you ready?
Upon hearing this, Pang Tong immediately replied, "Reporting to the Marquis, everything is ready. The people within a radius of fifty li were relocated three days ago. Within a radius of one hundred li, thirty thousand elite troops are stationed. Ten li away, there are three thousand cavalrymen, who are already on high alert."
Three thousand cavalrymen charged forward, and even a fourth-level cultivator could be in danger of death if he wasn't careful!
Surrounded by an army of 30,000, the soaring malevolent energy could even directly shatter the immortal spirits within the immortals. If they were not careful, their souls would be corrupted, forcing them to reincarnate and start anew.
This is why, even though people know that Xu Xian has been secretly making some small moves, such as digging a hole on Peach Mountain, no immortals have come to intervene over the years.
Anyway, as long as Taoshan isn't demolished, you can do whatever you want!
Upon hearing this, Xu Xian nodded. Pang Tong was an old follower of his, and he trusted him with his work. Therefore, he didn't ask any further questions. Then, he glanced at his attribute list.

Looking at his attribute panel, Xu Xian nodded in satisfaction. At the same time, he glanced at the Crimson Sky Sword in his hand; it was the protagonist of today's event.
Accompanied by the pre-prepared signal—a sky full of fireworks and loud noises—more than a million people in the vicinity of Hangzhou began to worship in unison.
They worship Xu Xian and Bai Suzhen. By the way, it is said that this is a cult, which is also the reason why others think Xu Xian is not a big deal!
The leader of this cult is a cultivator who is obsessed with romantic relationships. No matter how you look at it, he doesn't seem like someone who can accomplish anything!
These comments never stopped. But after reading the stories of Lenin and Stalin, Xu Xian no longer cared about his reputation among the common people.
At this moment, the beliefs of millions of people, whether good or bad, converged around Xu Xian and were absorbed by the Crimson Sky Sword.
These beliefs are quite diverse, some good, some bad, some benevolent, some malevolent. However, before the Crimson Sky Sword, all thoughts are equal, merely raw materials.
Meanwhile, the Crimson Sword also emitted a fiery red light, illuminating the entire earth. All the soldiers illuminated by it felt extremely comfortable, as if they were filled with power.
"Forged from the convictions of the people, this sword can be called the sword of humanity. Human will can conquer nature."
At this moment, Xu Xian released the Heavenly Emperor's Radiance he had exchanged. Stimulated by the beliefs of countless people, Xu Xian fully comprehended the secrets contained within this ray of Heavenly Emperor's Radiance.
"The sun rises in the east, painting the vast land red, sweeping away all demons and monsters! There are no philosophers of the Hundred Schools of Thought, no immortals, Buddhas, demons, or even exploitative landlords and rich peasants. What a magnificent world!"
"Revolutionizing Heaven, revolutionizing Earth, revolutionizing the gods, revolutionizing the bald-headed, revolutionizing the landlords, revolutionizing the various schools of thought—this revolutionary path is truly extraordinary! I am still far from being a true Heavenly Emperor!"
"At least, I still have selfish desires, and the common people still have selfish desires. Hmm, we can revise it a bit: first, we'll overthrow the landlords, then the various schools of thought, and finally, the bald-headed ones, then the gods, then the Heavenly Court and the Underworld!"
"Finally, let this entire world be filled with a red glow!"
"By the Great Dao above, today Xu Xian once again vows to carry out the great transformation and ultimately establish an ideal world where everyone is like a dragon and the world is in harmony!"
"May all people under heaven be like dragons, and may the Great Way bear witness to this vow!"
With a thunderous roar, Xu Xian, one of the most powerful warlords in the world, was already under the watchful eye of the will of humanity. Now, having made a vow to carry out the revolution, he was naturally immediately recognized.
From this moment on, no deity will ever again directly attack Xu Xian! No one dares to confront the wrath of humanity's will! Not even the Jade Emperor, not even the Three Pure Ones!
