Chapter 127: Chapter 126: The Shock of the Star Lords.
Translator: 549690339
Heavenly Court.
The Jinmuzhu of the Seven Dictions is lying down prostrate.
Before a chessboard.
Two immortals sit facing each other.
One is entirely red with many flesh tumors on his head.
The other looks like a proper Daoist immortal with a fairylike deanor, and white hair and beard, holding a whisk in his hand.
A white flag falls.
A large number of black flags are eliminated, and the chess ga instantly forms a crushing montum.
“Haha- Lord Iluo De, you lose again-” Star Lord Taibai smiles while stroking his beard.
“Well, Taibai, can 1 owe you? The fairy brew bestowed by the Jade Emperor so days ago is down to the last bottle.” Lord Iluo De chuckles twice.
“Hey- You have to accept losing a bet. There’s no such thing as owing.”
“Besides, as the two of us are luminaries among the Seven Dictions in the Three Realms, wouldn’t it tarnish our reputation if we went around owing?”
Star Lord Taibai leisurely says.
“Enough, enough- People say that you, as the Jinmuzhu, are overbearing, but in my opinion, you’re totally a talker-” Lord Iluo De has no choice but to admit defeat.
“Hahaha, give the fairy brew!”
Star Lord Taibai laughs heartily, in a very good mood.
It’s not because he won a bottle of fairy brew, but because he enjoys spending each day drinking and playing chess with his immortal friends and Daoist companions.
As the two chat.
Suddenly.
“Huh?”
Star Lord Taibai raises an eyebrow and lightly exclaims!
“What is it?” Lord Iluo De asks in confusion.
“Nothing, just a young friend in the Lower Realm triggered a divine command and wants to borrow my power.” Star Lord Taibai laughs as he waves his hand.
Having said that.
Lord Huo De is even more curious. There are very few cultivators in the Lower Realms today who can be referred to as ‘young friends’ by his old friend.
“Is it Yuan Tiangang of the Great Tang, or Li Chunfeng?” Lord Huo De casually asks.
“No!”
“Is it Wei Zheng, the official of the people?”
“It’s not.”
Star Lord Taibai laughs and shakes his head, then explains: “The background of this one, is much more impressive than theirs.”
“This person is known as Daoist Xuanqing, who so days ago made a spiritual journey to the Southern Heavenly Gate. Guess who commanded to personally greet him?”
“Huh- Could it be Emperor Haotian who can mobilize us from the Seven Dictions?”
Lord Huo De’s first thought is of Emperor Haotian since among the Seven Luminaries Star Monarch, the Golden Morality Taibai has the title of the Emperor’s Secretary.
“Not Your Majesty, but the one from the Thirty-Three Heavens!”
At these words.
Lord Huo De is shocked.
After thinking for a mont.
“My fairy brew is all gone, and this chess ga can’t be played anymore. I’m idle with nothing to do, why don’t 1 go with you to see this Xuanqing?”
“Good!”
Star Lord Taibai nods.
Although they are gods with divine authority, as long as there are no accidents, they don’t need to actively deal with the affairs of the Three Realms, which are run by the natural laws of Heaven and Earth.
No choice, they must find so fun.
Too idle!
anwhile.
At the Southern Heavenly Gate.
Xuanqing arrives here once again.
However.
He didn’t co this ti via a spiritual journey but by borrowing the strength of Star Lord Taibai to cross the two realms with his physical body.
At the gate.
Zeng Zhang Tianwang is still guarding it.
He is seen holding the Wisdom Sword and squatting beside a pillar, his head drooping and lifting at tis, as if he is bored and dozing off.
Suddenly.
He feels a fluctuation.
Zeng Zhang Tianwang quickly stood up, looking around and then subconsciously scolded Xuanqing.
“Hey- Where did this Dao…Dao…Daoist Xuanqing co from?”
“Imasurable Longevity and Fortune, you slacker, instead of guarding the Heavenly Gate, you’re squatting on the ground, dozing off and neglecting your duties, aren’t you afraid of punishnt?”
Xuanqing smiled slightly, flicking his whisk.
“This…uh…”
Zeng Zhang Tianwang stuttered, nodding his head, but didn’t know how to answer.
He couldn’t answer by saying that everyone is like this, and it’s not just him. The Heavenly Court is so boring that without resting and dozing, how could one even live?
After the previous incident with Star Lord Taibai, he knew that this Taoist, who dared to defy the Guanyin Bodhisattva, also had so background.
So he didn’t dare to look down upon him anymore.
At this mont.
In the distance.
Two figures, one in red and one in white, ca towards the Southern Heavenly Gate, chatting and laughing.
Upon seeing this,
Zeng Zhang Tianwang’s eyes lit up and he quickly shouted, “Little God pays his respects to the two Star Lord!”
“Hmm!”
Star Lord Taibai and Lord Huo De snorted lightly, as if saying hello, then passed by Zeng Zhang Tianwang and headed out of the Southern Heavenly Gate.
They ignored him, disregarding his presence.
On one hand, he was just a gatekeeper, not even from the sa sect, and on the other hand, they were both among the Seven Luminaries Star Monarchs of the Heavenly Court. A re snort was already an act of showing respect to a humble scholar.
At this mont.
Seeing Star Lord Taibai coming over, accompanied by a red-colored Immortal who looked exactly like Lord Huo De from the myths, Xuanqing couldn’t help but feel a little surprised.
He didn’t expect that the Star Lord would co to greet him in person again. Wasn’t this giving him too much face?
Of course, he would never think that the reason why the other party did this was because they were simply bored and looking for sothing to do.
“Junior Xuanqing pays his respects to the two Star Lords!” Xuanqing held his hands in a mudra, slightly bowing.
“Haha, it’s only been a few days, young friend, and you’re still as elegant as ever-”
Star Lord Taibai nodded slightly.
Lord Huo De, standing beside him, looked Xuanqing up and down, surprise flashing in his eyes. He didn’t expect that this Daoist Xuanqing actually possessed the Body of a Heavenly Immortal.
A few days?
Xuanqing was taken aback before realizing that one day in the Heavenly Court equaled one year on earth. So for Star Lord Taibai, it probably was just the ti since they last parted at Douluo Palace.
“To speak frankly, this ti, junior has asked for your help, Lord Taibai, to use the Teleportation Array once more and send to the Thirty-Three Heavens.”
Upon hearing this,
Star Lord Taibai was a little surprised.
“In that case, let’s go. We’ll talk while we walk.”
“Alright!”
The three of them stepped into the Southern Heavenly Gate.
As for the gatekeeper Zeng Zhang Tianwang, in other people’s eyes, he might be the famous ’guard’ of the Southern Heavenly Gate, one of the four venerable Shin Heavenly Kings.
But in the eyes of these powerful beings, he was no more than a…gatekeeper.
On the way to the Ascension Altar.
While walking,
Star Lord Taibai and Xuanqing chatted first.
Most of it was Star Lord Taibai asking about the Lower Realm’s affairs, and Xuanqing choosing interesting topics to talk about.
Fire Deity Star Monarch beside them remained silent, only occasionally nodding in agreent.
When they arrived at the Ascension Altar,
“Senior Star Lord Taibai, the favor you did for last ti is still not repaid. 1 am ashad to trouble you again. I have nothing else to offer but a few Ginseng Fruits. Please accept them as a token of my gratitude. 1 hope you won’t mind!”
Xuanqing cupped his hands in greeting.
Upon seeing this,
Star Lord Taibai gasped, and Lord Huo De’s eyes also widened.
Both were shocked.
What is a Ginseng Fruit?
It was the unique possession of one of the top powerhouses in the Three Realms, the Ancestor of the Earth Immortals, Zhenyuan Great Immortal. No one else had ever heard of owning such a thing.
But just now, this young friend Xuanqing said he has ‘a few’ Ginseng Fruits. The implication of this was self-evident.
“Young friend, are you familiar with the Great Immortal Zhenyuan too?”
