“Uncle-Master,” Li Ping’an said, his eyes filled with a touch of emotion, “are you implying that the Three Pure Ones are actually like brothers but had a major fall-out due to past minor conflicts?

You are hoping that I, as the prospective Heavenly Emperor, could exert some effort to resolve their ancient disputes and thereby fundamentally prevent the arrival of the Dao Immortal Tribulation?

Uncle-Master’s vision is indeed admirable!”

In the neighboring kitchen, Mother Gui Ling’s face also showed much sentiment.

She had actually misunderstood this little Golden Dragon, who’s ‘the most professional when it comes to interpreting the words – This Poor Daoist’.

Who could have expected…

“Ah?”

Immortal Huanglong’s aged eyes blinked repeatedly.

Li Ping’an asked in confusion, “Isn’t that so?”

Immortal Huanglong whispered, “The conflict between our Master and your Uncle-Master is actually due to the doctrinal differences between Chan Teaching and Jie Sect, which are irreconcilable, aren’t they?”

“So what is all this you’ve said about?”

“Ah, This Poor Daoist was just reflecting,” Immortal Huanglong cleared his throat, “This Poor Daoist was actually trying to say, look, with This Poor Daoist’s aptitude and time of entry into the fold, I am actually among the forefront of the Three Teachings of the Taoist Sect.

Although I joined as a disciple relatively late, This Poor Daoist was the first to go to the small courtyard.”

Li Ping’an’s mouth twitched slightly: “And then?”

“Then it’s just…

hehe.”

Immortal Huanglong whispered:

“Today, I watched the grand assembly in the Heavenly Court and This Poor Daoist thinks this New Heavenly Court has a lot of potential.

Instead of being prideful and missing opportunities, why not take decisive action while the Heavenly Court is still rising and directly place my bets on the Heavenly Court!

“Look, could you give your Uncle-Master a high-ranking official position to take on?”

Li Ping’an smiled wryly: “The Heavenly Court is not yet established, how can I bestow official titles?

Moreover, in the future, everything will depend on contributions to the Heavenly Court; the Heavenly Dao is watching, and no one can abuse their authority.”

“This Poor Daoist understands, This Poor Daoist understands.

I meant bestowing a high official position in the future.”

Immortal Huanglong tucked his hands into his sleeves and muttered:

“Later on, I’ll follow your commands, clashing with the Western Sect is fine, but first have a word with the Heavenly Dao to get his recognition for This Poor Daoist, how about that?

“Previously, when I fought with Fenghou, my Spiritual Treasure of a little sword almost blew itself up.

If This Poor Daoist hadn’t diverted my attention to protect the sword, how could I have been so easily bound by Fenghou?”

“I think I understand your point, Uncle-Master.”

Li Ping’an pondered for a moment, then said earnestly:

“I can’t guarantee anything else, but I can make you a promise, Uncle-Master, and suggest something.”

“Speak, speak.”

“If I need capable people to join forces with me in the future, with the opportunity to earn achievements, I will definitely consider Uncle-Master Huanglong and Uncle-Master Gui Ling first.

The two of you coming here to support me is a great help.

How can I not be grateful?

“This is my promise to both of you.”

Li Ping’an said:

“And the suggestion is…

Have you considered taking part in the Heavenly Emperor Temple?”

Immortal Huanglong looked puzzled: “Isn’t that for collecting incense offerings for you?”

“Although I’m not entirely clear about the specific use of incense and merit, the Heavenly Dao acknowledges it.”

Li Ping’an said gently:

“Now the Human Race has a problem, which is the Divine Court of the Southern Continent.

“How was the Divine Court in the Southern Continent born?

It originated from the constant worship of the Human Race in the Southern Continent.

The incense and merit gathered resonated with the Heavenly Dao, thus giving birth to a batch of deities in the Divine Court.

“These deities are even troublesome for the Holy Mother.

They are like rooted in the lands of the Southern Continent.

“The Heavenly Emperor Temple, in fact, aims to replicate the process of this Divine Court, by first amassing the incense and merit, which is certainly useful.”

After pondering for a while, Immortal Huanglong said: “Do you mean that This Poor Daoist should also set up a placard in the Heavenly Emperor Temple?”

“Too small,” Li Ping’an said, “You’re thinking too small.”

“Then what should we do?”

“The Heavenly Emperor Temple will reserve thirty-six statue spots.

Currently, there are only two: one for the Heavenly Emperor and one for Sister-in-law Xu, whose statue’s responsibility falls on the Temple Priest.”

Li Ping’an continued slowly:

“Sister-in-law Xu now has the body of an acquired deity and will be responsible for blessings and prophecies, making the Heavenly Emperor Temple efficacious.

“But this Heavenly Emperor Temple is still in need of protectors to deter evils from all corners, so that the wicked dare not commit misdeeds.”

Immortal Huanglong blinked: “This Poor Daoist becoming a protector?

Is that appropriate?”

“Why not,” Li Ping’an smiled, “When the Heavenly Emperor Temple is erected, you can manifest your true form across the heavens and earth for a while, use your mana, dragon form, and Dao Charm to awe the East Continent, and afterwards descend into the Heavenly Emperor Temple, coiling above the dome of the main hall…

As long as the incense in the Heavenly Emperor Temple remains prosperous, won’t that count as merit toward the Heavenly Dao?”

“This plan is good!

Let’s settle it like that!”

Immortal Huanglong slapped his thigh, his eyes lighting up:

“It takes you, Ping’an!

Great kindness will not go unthanked.

If there comes a day when This Poor Daoist gains recognition from the Heavenly Dao and my misfortunes fade, I shall set up a grand banquet to express my gratitude!”

Li Ping’an nodded with a smile, heaving a sigh in his heart.

Uncle-Master Huanglong…

is so easily swayed.

In the adjacent kitchen, Guilingling thought carefully and ultimately dismissed the idea of coming forward to volunteer herself.

She too could perform the art of soaring through the sky and impressing the East Continent.

But revealing her true form in front of others felt rather embarrassing, so she thought better of it.

…

In the days that followed, Immortal Huanglong was extraordinarily concerned about the progress of the chief Heavenly Emperor Temple, following Elder Yansheng around every day, constantly offering strategies for the design of the temple’s main hall ceiling.

Li Ping’an’s small courtyard gradually became tranquil.

Unable to cultivate due to the backlash of the Heavenly Dao’s power, he could only read more, gain more understanding, and mull over the Path of Artifact Refining.

Xuntian Xu soon moved to Dong’an City with his wife and daughter.

The subsequent research and development work of the Self-moving Immortal Armor also formally kicked off.
