Chapter 1533: Chapter 552: Wagering Against Hongjun (Part 3)
Several female Heavenly Fury Guards stepped forward to bind and seal the unresisting Nine-tailed Fox, escorting it back to the Heavenly Court.
…
An hour later.
Above the East Sea.
Li Dazhi, with a hint of intoxication, raised his hand to swallow a sobering Elixir Pill, and, along with Zhao Gongming and Qiong Xiao Celestial Maiden, hurried towards the Heavenly Court.
Zhao Gongming asked: “What is so urgent?”
“No idea!”
Li Dazhi muttered:
“Ping’an, cough, His Majesty sent a ssage, rely telling to call upon two chief disciples of the Jie Sect, claiming it’s to serve as witnesses and related to the apocalypse between heaven and earth. Qing Su and Guiling have returned, and the Chan Teaching has been summoned as well.”
“Witness?”
“Apocalypse?”
Zhao Gongming stroked his long beard, remarking with a smile:
“The Daoist Celestial Consecration Tribulation hasn’t even occurred yet, and they’re already plotting the apocalypse. Shouldn’t it be said that our Majesty is a bit overambitious?”
“That’s hardly overambitious.”
Li Dazhi shook his head and continued:
“Simply put, the Investiture of the Gods Catastrophe is a process, surmounting the apocalypse is the goal, gathering sufficient strength during the process to then break through the difficulties of world extinction.
“And then, everyone returns ho and finds their parents, enjoying a peaceful cultivation.”
Zhao Gongming said: “The matter of extinction cannot be surmounted so easily, This Poor Daoist has taken it lightly, having lived far too long since ancient tis, This Poor Daoist’s lifeti has been worth it.”
Li Dazhi elbowed Zhao Gongming: “Worth it? You haven’t experienced the joys of affection yet. Once you have a few more children, you’ll have new attachnts.”
Zhao Gongming smiled and shook his head.
Qiong Xiao Celestial Maiden murmured softly: “Jin Ling Senior Sister has already agreed, Big Brother, don’t hesitate.”
Li Dazhi’s spirit was lifted, his eyes filled with the fire of gossip.
Zhao Gongming replied: “Let’s wait until after the Daoist Celestial Consecration Tribulation is over. Cultivation seeks freedom, so should such matters, with heavy pressure ahead, freedom is unattainable.”
“Ah,” Qiong Xiao lanted, “Big Brother, you think too much.”
Li Dazhi sighed inwardly.
Freedom indeed?
If the Daoist Celestial Consecration Tribulation progresses normally, Jinling Saint Mother and you both would have been listed, one becoming Doumu Yuanjun and the other the God of Wealth, Sanxiao would die once, a remnant soul listed, and the Golden Dipper of Hun Yuan would beco a treasure for bathing newborns.
Yet, Li Dazhi dared not say these things directly.
Li Dazhi remarked with a smile: “We humans have a saying, pick flowers while they bloom, don’t wait still branches when none.”
“We’re at the Heavenly Gate!”
Zhao Gongming changed the topic:
“We ask Heavenly Emperor Father to guide us, to co in for observation.”
“Observe what, nothing much has changed recently.”
Li Dazhi, smiling broadly, led these two great masters of the Jie Sect to land before the Heavenly Gate, where the gate-keeping Heavenly General hurried forward to greet them, verified their identities, and then called for the ‘Ferry Cloud Boat.’
Monts later.
Li Dazhi, alongside Zhao Gongming and Qiong Xiao, reached Lingxiao Hall.
Within Lingxiao Hall, there were already more than ten figures present.
Li Ping’an sat on the central throne, eyes closed, resting.
On an adjacent throne, the Queen Mother bent her head over the docunts in hand, looking sowhat tired.
Below stood the Eastern King and several key officials of the Heavenly Court.
Qing Su and Guiling stood with hands behind their backs near the closest White Jade Pillar to the high platform, opposite them were Guang Chengzi from the Twelve Golden Immortals of Chan Teaching, Manjushri Guangfa Tianzun and Immortal Yuding.
All eyes fell upon the forefront of the high platform.
There, a slender figure knelt with head bowed, her pink dress outlining her graceful form, three thousand strands of green hair cascading casually.
Nine-tailed Fox?
Li Dazhi blinked, asked no more, and turned to make a gesture of invitation.
Zhao Gongming and Qiong Xiao bowed to greet Li Ping’an, who opened his eyes and returned the gesture. Afterwards, Zhao Gongming and Qiong Xiao went together to Guilingling’s side.
“What’s going on?” Qiong Xiao whispered.
“I have no idea, I too was just summoned.”
Guilingling’s clear eyes were filled with innocence.
“Just wait, don’t whisper anymore.”
Zhao Gongming whispered a reminder, then exchanged glances with Guang Chengzi, nodding as a form of greeting.
Moo——
Outside the hall, the call of the Green Ox was heard, as Lao Jun arrived riding it, except for Li Ping’an and the Queen Mother, all celestial beings went to the hall’s door to greet him.
The arrival wasn’t just of Lao Jun, a naless elder human youth who was supposed to watch over Xuan Capital City, but happened to be visiting Dou Rate Palace for a feast, was called by Lao Jun to arrive here too.
Thus, one of the participants in the War of the Ancient Heavens, the conqueror of East Emperor Taiyi—Xuan Du Da Fa Shi, also ca here.
Li Ping’an inwardly smiled.
This is clearly the deliberate arrangent of Granduncle Taiqing.
This is just right;
Regarding the ancient mystery of the Chaos Bell and East Emperor Taiyi, perhaps today the truth will co to light.
