Who gave you the right to interject when I, the Emperor, am speaking with the Jade Emperor?”
Ye Xuan’s eyes turned cold as Luotian Mystic Immortal Light rippled around him, an incredibly terrifying pressure, like mountains collapsing and tsunamis surging, bore down on Nezha, causing him to retreat several steps and look at Ye Xuan with a trace of astonishment in his eyes.
“Luotian Realm?” Nezha exclaimed in shock.
It was not just Nezha who was extremely astonished, even the Jade Emperor’s body shook.
He then realized that Ye Xuan had actually reached the level of a Luotian Mystic Immortal, which made him clench his fists unconsciously, a streak of sinister light flickering in his eyes.
“Nezha, don’t think that just because you are the disciple of Taiyi True Lord, I will hesitate to kill you.
If you continue to be disrespectful and unreasonable towards me, don’t say I didn’t warn you when I crush your soul to pieces,” Ye Xuan said sternly, his gaze containing a glint of murderous intent as he looked at Nezha, while the dozens of Demon Kings around him smiled cruelly, a mist of demonic energy enveloping them.
Clearly, having pledged their allegiance to Ye Xuan, anyone who opposed him was now their enemy.
Despite Nezha’s great reputation, in the eyes of these Demon Kings, he was inconsequential.
If Ye Xuan willed it, once they departed the Palace of the Polestar, they would use harsh methods to clear away this obstacle for Ye Xuan.
At this moment, the assembly of immortals fell silent, their faces shifting with uncertainty as they regarded Ye Xuan and the Demon Kings with a great deal of wariness.
Obviously, Ye Xuan had now grown powerful, no longer the insignificant Taiyi Golden Immortal of old.
Setting aside Ye Xuan’s entry into the Luotian Realm, just the presence of dozens of Demon Kings at the Taiyi level was already putting immense pressure on the Heavenly Court.
Everyone also recognized that Ye Xuan, now backed by powerful allies and formidable in cultivation himself, was truly deserving of the title Emperor Dongji.
Even the Jade Emperor could not afford to provoke him lightly, lest he risk plunging the Heavenly Court into chaos.
“Emperor, please quell your anger.
Nezha is grieved by the death of Changsheng Immortal Venerable, and his words may have been rash.
Let’s put this matter behind us,” the Jade Emperor said with a smile.
A single Nezha was naturally beneath Ye Xuan’s concern, and he wasn’t about to dwell on the matter.
“Jade Emperor, Bai Hong killed Changsheng Immortal Venerable.
By executing him, I have sought justice for our Heavenly Court.
For their efforts, I hope the rewards for these Demon Kings can be discussed,” said Ye Xuan.
“What are you waiting for?
Pay your respects to the Jade Emperor!”
Having said that, Ye Xuan turned to look back at Heavenly Peng King and the others.
These Demon Kings, being clever, all bowed respectfully to the Jade Emperor as a greeting.
At this time,
The Jade Emperor’s expression was somber, and he remained silent for a long time, understanding Ye Xuan’s implications—he was demanding his reward.
The fact that Ye Xuan had brought Huaguo Mountain under control was undeniable, and it would seem ill-befitting for the Jade Emperor not to acknowledge their requests.
As for whether Changsheng Immortal Venerable was actually killed by Bai Hong, it was now irrelevant since Bai Hong was no longer alive to confront Ye Xuan.
Naturally, whatever Ye Xuan said was regarded as the truth.
“Your Majesty, please bestow rewards according to our contributions.”
Zhao Gongming stepped forward from the crowd, bowing first to the Jade Emperor, followed by the support of the other immortals from the Jie Sect.
“The Heavenly Court has clear distinctions for rewards and punishments, and those who have merit must be rewarded.”
“Where is the Profound Heaven Officer?”
“Your servant is here!”
The Xuantian Official’s face was pale, and his body trembled slightly, but when the Jade Emperor summoned, he had no choice but to step forward.
“In accordance with their contributions, the enfeoffment of Demon Kings from the Lower Realm shall be negotiated by you and Emperor Dongji.”
The Jade Emperor spoke with solemn authority, yet the glance he gave the Xuantian Official surreptitiously carried a trace of coldness, clearly indicating that these Lower Realm Demon Kings should be given titular recognition at best, without any real power in the Heavenly Court.
Although the Xuantian Official’s cultivation was not high, he had an exceptional ability to read expressions and discern intentions, and naturally understood the Jade Emperor’s meaning.
Yet now, caught between the Jade Emperor and Emperor Dongji, no matter what he did, he was likely to offend one of them.
This kind of perilous task filled the Xuantian Official with bitter helplessness, but he could only take one step at a time.
The following matter was simple.
The Jade Emperor made a grand, lofty speech and did not breathe a word about Ye Xuan killing the Eyebrow Arhat—a matter which the Jade Emperor wished the Buddha Bodhisattvas of the Western Lingshan would quickly take care of by killing Ye Xuan, given that he had offended them.
Meanwhile, Ye Xuan—who didn’t know Guanyin had visited the Heavenly Court—was not stupid.
He could completely guess from the expressions of the group of Immortals that someone from the Western Lingshan had indeed visited, but for some unknown reason, they were not in the Heavenly Court.
This made all the countermeasures he had prepared pointless.
“Emperor Dongji has made commendable contributions in subduing demons this time, but the position of Emperor is already the supreme in the Heavenly Court, and there is nothing more that I can reward.
I truly owe an apology to Emperor Dongji,” the Jade Emperor said pretentiously.
“I hear that there are numerous strange treasures in the Heavenly Court Treasury.
I wonder if the Jade Emperor could open the treasury to allow me to witness its wonders?”
Ye Xuan had long coveted the three forbidden places of the Heavenly Court: the Immortal Peach Orchard, the Doushuai Temple, and the Heavenly Court Treasury.
Now that he had made meritorious conquests, he naturally wanted to take this opportunity to enter the Heavenly Court Treasury.
As Ye Xuan’s words rose, Zhao Gongming and others echoed in support.
The Jade Emperor’s face changed slightly, but he still smiled and said, “Since the Emperor wants to experience the Heavenly Court Treasury, how could I be unwilling?”
“Emperor Dongji, follow me.”
The Jade Emperor rose from his throne, a golden cloud rising at his feet as he walked towards the outside of Lingxiao Palace—Ye Xuan, with a slight smile, naturally followed the steps of the Jade Emperor.
The two of them exited Lingxiao Palace together, disappearing from the eyes of the group of Immortals.
Leaving aside the matter of enfeoffment of various Demon Kings, let’s talk about Ye Xuan following the Jade Emperor, one behind the other, out of Lingxiao Palace.
The direction they headed was towards the Jade Emperor’s dojo, Dou Niu Palace.
Auspicious vapors filled the air, and Immortal Clouds surged around them.
The Jade Emperor, the sovereign of the Three Realms, and Ye Xuan, Emperor Dongji—on the level of titles, both stood as equals, and this was the first time the two appeared together alone.
Along the way, Immortal Officials and Fairies paid their respects to the Two Emperors, until they stepped into Dou Niu Palace.
As the palace gates slowly closed, the two disappeared from the outside world.
Inside Dou Niu Palace.
The heavenly vault was boundless, with stars spread throughout.
Clad in blue garments, the Jade Emperor stood hands behind his back, while Ye Xuan was as calm as a gentle breeze or drifting cloud, bearing not a trace of worldly aura.
“Ye Xuan, in fact, I very much admire you.
If you could just abide by the rules, I would be willing to rule the Three Realms with you.
Why must you be an enemy to me?” the Jade Emperor suddenly turned to look at Ye Xuan, his expression serene and undisturbed, without a trace of majestic aura radiating, as if he were conversing with an old friend.
At this moment.
There were only the two of them inside Dou Niu Palace, and this was also their first private conversation.
“Jade Emperor, you might be considered a hero, able to endure what others cannot, with a rather broad mind.
It’s just a pity that you and I are destined to be enemies, not friends,” Ye Xuan said with a faint smile, speaking frankly and directly.
There was no flattery, no affectation.
Since the Jade Emperor had been open and honest, and there was no third person in Dou Niu Palace, Ye Xuan felt free to speak his mind completely.
