332: Chapter 196 Gou Chen Submits_4 332: Chapter 196 Gou Chen Submits_4 To think about killing him within his own Ziwei Heavenly Court, even the Jade Emperor couldn’t accomplish this, let alone Great Emperor Gou Chen and Taiyi Suffering Heavenly Venerate Tianzun. A gleam flashed in Sun Wukong’s eyes, and he said with a smile, “Perhaps there is good news, Your Majesty. It wouldn’t hurt to see them.” Great Emperor Ziwei nodded and immediately said, “Let them in.” The Divine General quickly rushed out to invite the two inside. Even though Great Emperor Ziwei is now a Great Heavenly Venerate, Great Emperor Gou Chen was originally his elder brother. Coupled with his status as one of the Four Heavenly Kings, he was only slightly inferior to the Supreme of the Three Realms. Now that Great Emperor Gou Chen had requested an audience, Ziwei naturally would not slight him. On the other hand, Taiyi Suffering Heavenly Venerate Tianzun didn’t merit much concern. Although his status was not low, he ultimately couldn’t compare with the Four Heavenly Kings. Stepping into the Ziwei Heavenly Palace once again, Great Emperor Gou Chen felt turbulent emotions. His expression was odd, as if overcome by an indescribable feeling. Meanwhile, Taiyi Suffering Heavenly Venerate Tianzun seemed somewhat cautious. Although he was certain that Great Emperor Ziwei wouldn’t mistreat them and would even treat them with respect, once there, he couldn’t help but feel nervous and perceived the pressure to be immense. He and Great Emperor Gou Chen, one after the other and under the watchful eyes of the civil and military Immortal Officials, came before Great Emperor Ziwei. Great Emperor Gou Chen stared at Great Emperor Ziwei. As they gazed at each other, one above, one below, a spark of tension seemed to spread through Ziwei Hall. Great Emperor Ziwei remained silent, simply staring at his elder brother. Great Emperor Gou Chen, too, didn’t speak, although he was here to surrender. But persuading him to speak first was awfully difficult. Between them, a stalemate ensued. The onlookers wore puzzled expressions, unsure of Great Emperor Gou Chen’s intentions. It was clear that he had come to see Great Emperor Ziwei, but upon meeting, neither brother uttered a word. Taiyi Suffering Heavenly Venerate Tianzun, sensing that the atmosphere had turned sour, inwardly smiled wryly. If the silence continued, it might be interpreted as a provocation. If Great Emperor Ziwei, in a fit of rage, decided to execute them both, it would be a catastrophic loss. With this in mind, Taiyi Suffering Heavenly Venerate Tianzun quickly said, “Taiyi pays his respects to Great Ziwei Heavenly Venerate Your Majesty.” Great Emperor Ziwei’s expression eased slightly as he said indifferently, “Taiyi Suffering Heavenly Venerate Tianzun, what brings you to see Us?” Great Emperor Gou Chen looked at Taiyi Suffering Heavenly Venerate Tianzun discontentedly, clearly understanding his thoughts. Great Emperor Gou Chen was somewhat dismissive. What was there to fear? Was it just an upset Ziwei? Even if it made him unhappy, what could he do, chop off his head? Taiyi Suffering Heavenly Venerate Tianzun inwardly smiled wryly. Great Emperor Gou Chen might be spared by Great Emperor Ziwei for being his brother, but it was different for him. If Great Emperor Ziwei got upset, he could easily use Taiyi as a scapegoat, and then he’d have nowhere to cry. It was better to state their purpose right away to avoid any misunderstandings. Taiyi glanced at Sun Wukong and said solemnly, “Previously, the Great Sage Equalling Heaven had sent a message to Taiyi, suggesting to forsake darkness for light. After considering it, Taiyi found the Great Sage’s advice sound, and Great Emperor Gou Chen shared the same view. Therefore, the two of us have come to submit ourselves to the Great Ziwei Heavenly Venerate. We beseech the Great Heavenly Venerate to accept our allegiance.” Upon hearing this, the crowd was astonished. No one expected that Great Emperor Gou Chen and his company had truly come to submit to Great Emperor Ziwei. The most remarkable aspect was that Great Emperor Gou Chen was also willing to submit to Great Emperor Ziwei. Though they were brothers, their relationship had always been complex. Their hidden struggles spanned more than a mere day or two. For Great Emperor Gou Chen to submit to the Great Ziwei Heavenly Venerate was, to him, more agonizing than death. Great Emperor Ziwei had indeed thought of it, but he dared not believe it. For the same reason as everyone else, he truly didn’t think that Great Emperor Gou Chen would surrender to him. Even in his heart, he felt grateful enough that his brother wasn’t actively opposing him. Now that he had come to submit, it gave Great Emperor Ziwei an unreal sensation. He looked at the two with a hint of suspicion and couldn’t help asking, “Is this true? Or are you attempting to deceive Us?” It wasn’t that Great Emperor Ziwei didn’t believe them; the matter was simply too far-fetched. In fact, he began to suspect that Great Emperor Gou Chen might be playing spy for the Jade Emperor. Otherwise, why would he do such a thing? To him, it was a grave insult. “If you don’t wish to, forget it. We hardly care,” said Great Emperor Gou Chen, rage rising in his heart as he turned to leave. Taiyi Suffering Heavenly Venerate Tianzun quickly grabbed hold of Great Emperor Gou Chen and gave Great Emperor Ziwei a meaningful look, saying, “It’s true, please discern the truth, Your Great Heavenly Venerate. We wholeheartedly seek to join Your Majesty. The Jade Emperor engages in perverse acts, hoping to allow the return of the Ancient Gods from beyond. Great Emperor Gou Chen and I naturally could not side with them. With our limited strength, only by submitting to the Great Heavenly Venerate can we prevent the return of those Ancient Gods and protect the lives of the Three Realms.” Continuing, Taiyi Suffering Heavenly Venerate Tianzun added, “Moreover, both Great Emperor Gou Chen and I have a message we wish to convey to the Heavens.” “Speak,” said Great Emperor Ziwei, who had calmed down. Observing Great Emperor Gou Chen’s reaction, he instantly felt the matter was mostly true. If it were a feigned submission, that man wouldn’t be so awkward. This awkwardness indicated that he indeed came to join him. With this in mind, the corners of Great Emperor Ziwei’s mouth rose slightly, and he no longer wished to squabble with Great Emperor Gou Chen. After such a long history of overt and covert battles between the two brothers, it had finally led to this outcome.
