Chapter 377 - 377 376 True Martial Provocation

377: Chapter 376: True Martial Provocation 377: Chapter 376: True Martial Provocation But Marshal of the Heavenly Canopy indeed had no shallow destiny, playing one of the main roles in the minor trials of the Journey to the West, enduring ninety-nine arduous trials, and eventually, Buddha conferred him the title of Envoy of the Cleansed Altar.

Although his Cultivation was merely that of a Luotian Golden Immortal, no one dared to underestimate him because behind this Envoy of the Cleansed Altar was an unbridled Fighting Saint Buddha.

Perhaps it’s better to refer to the Envoy of the Cleansed Altar as Marshal of the Heavenly Canopy.

Although he was cast into the Beast Path and reborn as a piglet by the Jade Emperor back in the day, having achieved Buddhahood, he had long since shed his demon form and regained his original appearance.

It must be said, Marshal of the Heavenly Canopy possessed a heroically handsome visage truly befitting a beautiful man, but at this moment, his brows were deeply furrowed, holding a Nine-toothed Nail Rake in his hands that caught an odd look from a Group of Immortals, yet they said nothing more.

Because everyone knew, this Marshal of the Heavenly Canopy was one of Guanghan Fairy’s suitors.

His visit to the Heavenly Court was far from simple and given his brotherly relationship with the Fighting Saint Buddha, even if he caused troubles, he had the latter’s protection.

Even Daluo Golden Immortals would have to give him face.

“Daoist Ci Hang!”

True Warrior Emperor, a highly proud individual, naturally had to curb his arrogance in the presence of South Sea Guanyin, an Ancient Golden Immortal.

He simply performed a Taoist salute as a greeting.

As for Barefoot Immortal and Marshal of the Heavenly Canopy, True Warrior Emperor did not acknowledge them at all.

Clearly, as one of the three Great Emperors of the Heavenly Court, it was improbable for him to take the initiative to greet Barefoot Immortal and Marshal of the Heavenly Canopy.

Barefoot Immortal didn’t care much about such formalities and understood the temperament of True Warrior Emperor well, naturally not minding these things.

However, Marshal of the Heavenly Canopy harbored resentment and had no fondness for the people of the Heavenly Court, naturally feeling irritated by the attitude of True Warrior Emperor.

“Hmph, the courts of the Heavenly Court really put on great airs,” muttered Marshal of the Heavenly Canopy coldly.

Hearing the words of Marshal of the Heavenly Canopy, True Warrior Emperor’s expression changed, and he said coldly, “Tian Peng, don’t think that just because you’ve entered Western Lingshan you can act recklessly.

If you stir up trouble here in the Heavenly Court, even Western Lingshan might not be able to save you.”

Bang!

The Nine-toothed Nail Rake whirled through the void, pointing at True Warrior Emperor, and Marshal of the Heavenly Canopy scoffed, “Don’t think I’m afraid of you because you are a Daluo Golden Immortal.

Even if I’m not your match, I’ll call upon my brother Monkey to teach you a lesson.”

“You…!”

True Warrior Emperor, furious, the Daluo Immortal Light churned, but he still didn’t make a move, evidently extremely wary of the person Marshal of the Heavenly Canopy mentioned.

“Ha-ha!”

“True Warrior, you’re really a joke.

You’re threatened by a former subordinate and dare not act; it’s a disgrace to our Heavenly Court.”

Suddenly, a wild laugh echoed from all directions.

Two golden clouds crossed Changtian, causing the Group of Immortals present to startle and then look towards the source of the sound.

“Emperor Ziwei has arrived!” an Immortal quickly declared.

Hum!

The void solidified, the golden light faded, and when Emperor Ziwei arrived in front of the South Heavenly Gate, the Group of Immortals present commenced greetings, even South Sea Guanyin clasped his hands and chanted a Buddha’s name.

“Ziwei!”

True Warrior Emperor’s face darkened like the water, his voice turning exceedingly cold at that moment.

Unfortunately, as the True Martial Emperor glared angrily, Emperor Ziwei simply ignored him, then turned his head and smiled at Ye Xuan, “Brother, you must remember that this True Martial Emperor is petty and must not be offended.

In the past, at the Peach Banquet, he went to extreme lengths for a peach of 9,000 years, which truly shamed the dignity of the emperors of Heavenly Court.”

Ye Xuan, shrouded in golden light and indistinct in form, seemed as if a cloud of mist obscured him, naturally preventing the group of immortals and the Four Great Heavenly Kings from recognizing him.

“Thank you for the reminder, brother,” Ye Xuan said calmly.

“Ziwei, do you wish to battle with me here?”

The countenance of the True Martial Emperor was cold, clearly harboring a significant grudge against Emperor Ziwei, and now being ridiculed by Emperor Ziwei only increased his anger.

“If you wish to fight, then I will accompany you.

But I must tell you, with your mere Daluo Second Layer Heaven cultivation, you are not my opponent,” Emperor Ziwei said with a cold laugh.

“Hmm?”

The True Martial Emperor’s expression changed slightly.

When he carefully sensed the aura of Emperor Ziwei, a look of astonishment crossed his eyes.

He had not expected that within a mere one hundred thousand years, Emperor Ziwei would have advanced to the Daluo Third Layer Heaven.

“Hmph, so you’ve reached the Daluo Third Layer Heaven, no wonder you dare to be so presumptuous.

Once this matter of Heavenly Court is concluded, I will definitely teach you a lesson,” the True Martial Emperor said coldly.

“Brother, let’s go.”

Disdain flashed in Ye Xuan’s eyes at the pretense of the True Martial Emperor.

His return to Heavenly Court was firstly for the matter concerning the Guanghan Fairy, and secondly to check on the several dozen Demon Kings that he had planted in Heavenly Court over the past three hundred years.

He had no inclination to waste time here exchanging verbal jabs with the True Martial Emperor.

As Ye Xuan spoke, he casually walked towards the inner South Heavenly Gate.

Emperor Ziwei nodded slightly, also paying no heed to the True Martial Emperor, simply greeted South Sea Guanyin and others quickly and proceeded to Heavenly Court with Ye Xuan.

“How dare you!”

Suddenly, just as the two of them were about to enter the Heavenly Court, the True Martial Emperor shouted angrily.

Daluo Immortal Light surged out and struck directly towards Ye Xuan.

Bang!

The expression of Emperor Ziwei changed slightly.

He moved to intercept the True Martial Emperor, neutralizing his assault, but this scene caught the attention of the assembled immortals, all displaying looks of surprise.

The group of immortals naturally noticed Ye Xuan, although they could not see his face, but they were very aware that someone whom Emperor Ziwei called a brother was no ordinary individual.

“True Martial, are you seeking death?”

Emperor Ziwei flew into a rage, Daluo Immortal Light roiled in all directions, causing Heaven and Earth to tremble, and the fierce killing intent of Daluo Immortal Technique steamed forth at that moment.

It’s no wonder Emperor Ziwei was so enraged; Ye Xuan was someone he had brought to Heavenly Court and intended to swear brotherhood with.

For the True Martial Emperor to attack Ye Xuan was not only a slap in the face to Ziwei himself but also a complete disregard for Emperor Ziwei.

“Hmph, a mere Luotian Golden Immortal, who does not know how to show respect to me, I merely wanted to teach him a lesson.

Do I have to ask your permission, Ziwei?” the True Martial Emperor retorted sharply.

No wonder the True Martial Emperor attacked Ye Xuan; initially, Marshal Tian Peng mocked him, and he refrained from retaliating because Marshal Tian Peng had the backing of Fighting Saint Buddha, whom he could not afford to provoke.

Then Emperor Ziwei mocked him, and as a fellow Great Emperor and considering Emperor Ziwei’s higher realm, even though he was angry, he only could suppress it.

But Ye Xuan’s disregard was the last straw, causing the True Martial Emperor to unleash his fury upon Ye Xuan.
