Sun Wukong laughed and said, “My friends, you all did splendidly this time, however, the real test is yet to come. Please don’t hold anything back, use all of your abilities. As long as we get through this, the Great Heavenly Venerate’s position will truly be determined.” “Naturally.” “Rest assured, I always fight with all my might.” Just then, a beam of Demonic Light flashed past, and Chi You appeared. The Yellow Emperor became tense at once. Had Chi You already become the Great Heavenly Venerate? Would he take action against him? As these thoughts raced through his mind, the Yellow Emperor stepped back slightly. Chi You noticed him and wore a look of disdain. “Yellow Emperor, there’s no need for you to hide, I have no interest in you. I’ve come today to chop down the Great Heavenly Venerate.” The Yellow Emperor immediately breathed a sigh of relief, grateful that Chi You was not there for him. With Chi You’s current strength, had it not been for the title of Great Heavenly Venerate, he truly wouldn’t be a match for Chi You. Chi You said with a face full of distaste, “You’d better become the Great Heavenly Venerate quickly. You’ve lived in vain for so many years; even if you begged me to strike you now, I’d find it beneath me—I have no interest in bullying the weak.” A twitch crossed the Yellow Emperor’s mouth. He, weak? Only Chi You would dare say such a thing. He was a Heavenly Venerate, how could he be weak? But since Chi You was the Great Heavenly Venerate, he truly had the guts to say so. Xingtian glanced at Chi You, feeling somewhat distressed. While his strength back in the day was not as great as Chi You’s, it wasn’t too far off. Now, however, with Chi You as the Great Heavenly Venerate, he absolutely wasn’t a match for him. “I must also strive to become the Great Heavenly Venerate quickly; otherwise, I won’t even qualify to be Chi You’s rival in the future.” He thought to himself with a soaring battle spirit. By now, nearly everyone had arrived. Such an assembly could certainly be considered extravagant. Yet, everyone felt uneasy, a pressure weighing on their hearts. They knew full well that even with such a force, it might not be enough to withstand the combined efforts of the other three of the Four Heavenly Kings. Moreover, no one knew whether the Jade Emperor would take action. The position of Great Heavenly Venerate had been seized; the Heavenly Court’s fortune, represented by the nine golden dragons, had all merged into the body of the Great Emperor Ziwei. If he wasn’t driven mad by this, that would be the real surprise. Inside the Traveling Palace of Houtu, the Jade Emperor’s face was ashen. His eyes sparked with fury, and a powerful desire to kill surged through him. “You’re not planning to take action?” Lady Houtu asked, her voice tinged with surprise. Even on the verge of madness, the Jade Emperor had no intentions of striking out. Taking a deep breath, the Jade Emperor said coldly, “How can I take action now? To the beings of the Three Realms, I am as good as a dead man. If I were to go out now, wouldn’t it mean that I have deceived the beings of the Three Realms? Then I would truly be doomed beyond redemption.” Lady Houtu smiled faintly and said, “Then you can only watch as events unfold. This was the choice you made yourself; you can’t blame others.” “Are you mocking me?” The Jade Emperor’s eyes flashed with a chilly glint as he stared at Lady Houtu. Lady Houtu smiled faintly and replied, “You are the Jade Heavenly Venerate, who would dare to mock you? I certainly wouldn’t dare.” If it were any normal day, the term “Great Heavenly Venerate” would not stir any emotions in the Jade Emperor. But today, he found the title to be particularly grating on the ear. The Jade Emperor’s face turned even more ashen as he said coldly, “Houtu, go to the Purple Forbidden Enclosure now, and kill him for me.” “Very well.” Lady Houtu had already planned to do this. She might mock the Jade Emperor, but she wouldn’t stand for someone stealing his position. Did they truly believe that she, Houtu, would not demonstrate her power? “Gou Chen and Longevity will also go. I will send experts as well. If there’s a chance, eradicate Ziwei for me,” the Jade Emperor said coldly. He was full of killing intent. Even though he couldn’t take action himself, he didn’t wish to see Great Emperor Ziwei live. “I understand.” Lady Houtu replied indifferently. She set out, flanked by powerful beings, hastening towards the Purple Forbidden Enclosure. At the same time, the Great Emperor Gou Chen and the Longevity Great Emperor from the South Pole had mobilised as well. Both wore terribly grave expressions; they had both coveted the position of the Great Heavenly Venerate, yet had not anticipated that the Great Emperor Ziwei would steal a march on them by ennobling the Human Race. They were naturally resentful and called upon their best to prevent the Great Emperor Ziwei from becoming the commander of the Three Realms. If they didn’t stop him today and Great Emperor Ziwei became commander of the Three Realms, even if he couldn’t truly rule the Three Realms for the moment, With the backing of the title of Great Heavenly Venerate, many would be willing to pledge allegiance to him, and it would become really difficult to curb the development of Great Emperor Ziwei later. The Lamp-Burning Ancient Buddha and Maitreya Buddha stood before Tathagata. After Great Emperor Ziwei became the Great Heavenly Venerate, they sought out Tathagata to ask what should be done. “What has it to do with me?” Tathagata replied with a question. The Lamp-Burning Ancient Buddha and Maitreya Buddha were taken aback, but then they understood. This was a struggle within the Daoist Sect; what did it have to do with the Buddhist Realm? No matter who became the Great Heavenly Venerate, the Buddhist Realm would still be the Buddhist Realm. A Daoist Sect riven by internal strife posed the least threat to the Buddhist Realm. A slight smile curled the corners of Tathagata’s mouth as he spoke with a smile, “The Jade Emperor thought himself so cunning. He believed that there would be prolonged strife among the Four Heavenly Kings. Even after the Great Heavenly Venerate was decided, it would take a long time, but he never expected Great Emperor Ziwei to come up with such an idea. Outsmarted by his own scheme, the Jade Emperor’s face must be quite unsightly right now.” Lamp-Burning Ancient Buddha and Maitreya Buddha shared the same sentiment; they felt sure the Jade Emperor must be exploding with rage. At that moment, Li Guangming, accompanied by ten Heavenly Venerates, knelt before the Jade Emperor. “You will strike, help Houtu, and attack Purple Forbidden Enclosure. You must kill Ziwei.” “Yes.” Li Guangming immediately responded.
