Chapter 225: Chapter 202, Bai Jin Ascends to Heaven

"Disciple, please come to the Heavenly Court." Suddenly, a voice rang out beside Bai Jin’s ear.

As Bai Jin departed towards the East Sea, his body halted, and he looked up into the sky, wondering why Senior Hao Tian was seeking him at this moment. After hesitating, he turned towards the Heavenly Court and directly traversed the Heavenly Curtain to arrive in front of the East Heavenly Gate.

Li Changgeng stood in front of the Heavenly Gate with a horsetail whisk on his arm, smiling.

Upon seeing Bai Jin’s arrival, he immediately stepped forward, bowed, and said with a smile, "The old Daoist warmly welcomes the Daoist Lord!"

Bai Jin smiled and returned the greeting, saying, "Daoist, you are too kind!"

Suddenly, Bai Jin noticed an additional divine seal of a Gold Star on Li Changgeng’s forehead. It seemed like he was looking at an Ancient Star, vast and enduring through ancient times.

Bai Jin blurted out subconsciously, "Gold Star Taibai!"

Li Changgeng smiled and said, "Daoist Lord’s insight is as sharp as a torch. His Majesty has just decreed to appoint me to the position of the Gold Star Taibai, Star Lord."

"I sincerely congratulate the Star Lord. Taibai Star is one of the 365 Ancient Stars, possessing command over the killing power between Heaven and Earth. There has always been talk of ’Taibai governs the skies, turning Heaven and Earth upside down’, which shows how much Senior Hao Tian values you."

A doubt flashed through Li Changgeng’s mind. Taibai governs the skies, turning Heaven and Earth upside down - is there such a saying? How come I’m unaware of it? The doubt flashed by, and he quickly responded modestly, "Daoist Lord, you flatter me."

Extending his hand, he said, "Please come inside, the Emperor has been waiting for quite some time."

Bai Jin followed the Gold Star Taibai inside, passing through countless pavilions and towers, noticing that many Immortal Gods were now in the Heavenly Court.

The two arrived at the Yaochi. Standing outside the Turquoise Pool, the Gold Star Taibai respectfully said, "I shall not go inside. Daoist Lord, please enter."

"Thank you for your efforts, Star Lord!" After expressing his gratitude, Bai Jin walked inside, following a misty path laden with immortal mist, reaching the Yaochi Square.

On the square, the Jade Emperor and Queen Mother were seated upright, with Chang’e and Xuan Nu standing beside the Queen Mother.

Bai Jin hurriedly stepped forward, bowed, and said, "Greetings to Senior Hao Tian, greetings to Master Yaochi!"

Heavenly Emperor Hao Tian laughed heartily and said, "Bai Jin has arrived, no need for excessive formalities, please have a seat."

Queen Mother of Yaochi smiled and said, "These days, Hao Tian has praised you hundreds of times in front of me, and now I finally get to see the True God."

Bai Jin replied in awe, "It’s all exaggerated praise from my master, and now I fear I have disappointed Your Highness."

"Exceptional talents and profound virtue," the Queen Mother praised.

Hmm~ Am I really that outstanding?

Heavenly Emperor Hao Tian laughed heartily and said, "Bai Jin, since you call us ’Master’, you are not an outsider. Please, take a seat quickly!"

"Thank you, both masters," Bai Jin walked over and sat down beside the table.

Queen Mother of Yaochi smilingly said, "Chang’e, Xuan Nu, serve the food!"

"Yes!" Chang’e and Xuan Nu respectfully responded and turned to walk out.

Moments later, two teams of female fairies gracefully arrived, carrying trays filled with fine wine and exquisite dishes.

The two teams of female fairies placed the fine wine and exquisite dishes on the table and then gracefully withdrew.

Bai Jin looked at the food and drinks; all the meat was from demon and spiritual beasts, including even flood dragons and Fire Phoenixes. The spirit fruits and spirit plants were also rare treasures, making the feast lavish indeed.

Yet, Bai Jin felt a surge of unease in his heart. Both his masters had suddenly invited him over, and now they were serving fine wine and dishes—clearly, they wanted something from him! Could a meal from the Heavenly Emperor and Queen be simply enjoyed?

He sneaked a glance at his two masters, both of whom were smiling at him. Their smiles felt rather unsettling.

Hao Tian chuckled and said, "My nephew, let’s eat!"

The Queen Mother of Yaochi also smiled and said, "My nephew, drink up!"

Bai Jin tentatively asked, "Masters, is there something you need my assistance with? If there is, please speak plainly. I won’t delay in what I can do." He implied that for what he couldn’t do, they shouldn’t blame him either.

The Queen Mother of Yaochi smiled and said, "You worry too much, my nephew. The first time you ascended to Heaven, Hao Tian had mentioned inviting you for a meal, but it was delayed due to the matter of the Heavenly Curtain. Afterward, you were busy with many things and did not visit the Heavenly Court again. This sudden invitation is to thank you for that matter of the Heavenly Curtain."

Bai Jin suddenly realized, "So it was for that matter. Serving my masters is an honor for me as a junior, no need for formalities."

He grinned and said, "The other masters and uncles call me Timely Rain Bai Xiaojin."

Heavenly Emperor Hao Tian laughed heartily, "Timely Rain Bai Xiaojin, what an interesting title." He lifted his wine glass and said, "My nephew, please!"

Bai Jin also lifted his wine glass smilingly and said, "I invite you, Master!"

After the wine was passed around thrice and the dish flavors changed five times, Hao Tian said, laughing, "Eating and drinking like this is too boring. I invite my nephew to watch a show for entertainment."

With a wave of his hand, a magnificent Divine Mirror spun out, enlarging continuously during its spin, and fixed above the Spirit Pond.

All three of them looked towards the Divine Mirror, where images of the vast Primordial Land appeared, with two vast camps confronting each other from a distance. Banners fluttered in the wind, and weapons shone sharply amid the tense atmosphere filled with a chilling aura.

Hao Tian said, "This is the struggle between Human Emperors in the Lower Realm. Bai Jin, my nephew, who do you think will win?"

"What does my master imply?" Bai Jin honestly said, "That’s hard to say!"

The Queen smiled and said, "I quite favor Xuanyuan."

In Zhu Lu Field, shouts and killing calls resounded. The Jiuli Clan clashed with the Yanhuang Alliance Army.

As the battle began, the Jiuli Clan sent forward two old men, both of whom cast witchcraft simultaneously. A violent storm brewed over the battlefield, blinding and destabilizing the Yanhuang Alliance Army.

The Jiuli army took this opportunity to attack, making the Yanhuang Alliance falter, killing them till they broke ranks.

Booming drum beats echoed as the Yanhuang forces retreated, and the Jiuli Clan did not pursue further. Xuanyuan suffered a major defeat in the first round.

In the second round, Xuanyuan sent his daughter, Drought, who caused the landscape to parch wherever she went, breaking the violent storm. Guang Chengzi summoned all his sect brothers to bravely intervene, using Immortal Techniques against the mortals, securing a grand victory in the second round.

This angered Xingtian, who directly pulled in eighty-one powerful members of the Witch Clan, each with extraordinary capabilities and valiant combat skills.

With each side winning one round, the third round carried particular importance; the tense atmosphere filled Zhu Lu field, as if even the air between Heaven and Earth had solidified.

Back in the Jade Pond of Heavenly Court, Hao Tian laughing said, "Last round, Chan Sect broke the rules by using Immortal Techniques against ordinary mortals. Now, Xingtian has brought eighty-one members of the Witch Clan to the battlefield. Like eighty-one long spears, they could easily pierce through Xuanyuan’s armies. Xuanyuan is in trouble."

Bai Jin, appearing thoughtful, looked at Hao Tian and said, "Master, are you thinking of intervening?"

Hao Tian helplessly said, "Originally, the struggle of the Human Emperor is none of my concern, and I had no intention of intervening, but my sister gave this to me."

Heavenly Emperor Hao Tian spread his hand, revealing a Star Map materializing in his palm—looking at it, Bai Jin felt as though he was gazing into the endless starry sky, where the Great Sun blazed brightly and the cold silver moon hung, with three hundred and sixty-five Ancient Stars rotating.
