Chapter 139: Chapter 135, Departure from the Heavenly Court Yun Xiao said with a light smile, "There’s no need for mutual flattery, it’s clear that everyone is very capable." Kong Xuan nodded and said with a smile, "Sister speaks the truth; there indeed seems to be a hint of mutual adulation." Zhao Gongming laughed heartily and said, "Alright, alright, let’s not be modest. With the support of my junior brothers, I am confident that we will not let our senior brother down and will purge the Jie Sect for our Master." They spoke and laughed as they walked towards the interior of the island. This great battle had long been known throughout the Jie Sect. The Law Enforcement Team became famous after that battle, especially the members who took action – Feathered Immortal, Wuyun Immortal, Yun Xiao – their fearsome reputations soared. Even Zhao Gongming and Golden Ring Immortal, who didn’t take action, were not underestimated. Whoever could become a member of the Law Enforcement Team, standing in ranks with Feathered Immortal, Wuyun Immortal, Yun Xiao – how could they be ordinary? ... On Joy Island, Long-Eared Ding Guang Immortal, Qiu Shouxian, and Lingya Immortal gathered together, their expressions ugly. Long-Eared Ding Guang Immortal clenched his teeth and said, "Where did they all come from?" Qiu Shouxian’s face was pale as he said, "They are all junior brothers who recently joined. But all of them are unsung, I don’t know how Bai Jin managed to find them." Lingya Immortal said angrily, "Among those disorderly Outer Disciples that East Sea took in, there are indeed some extraordinary ones. Senior brother, what should we do now?" Long-Eared Ding Guang Immortal’s gaze was resolute as he said, "We must investigate, thoroughly investigate every single Outer Disciple, find out all their backgrounds, and bring all the extraordinary junior brothers under the wing of the senior-most disciple. Although Bai Jin has taken control of the divination, it is our senior-most disciple who truly represents the Jie Sect’s direct lineage." The two answered in unison, "Yes!" In the next few days, the Law Enforcement Team struck out boldly, capturing many unruly Outer Disciples and punishing them by making them build the Law Enforcement Hall while wearing Golden Hoops. In just a few days, the ethos of the Jie Sect changed dramatically. The name of the Law Enforcement Team instilled fear in the sect’s disciples, causing them all to behave and quiet down. ... Outside the Thirty-Three Heavens in Chaos, a palace drifted, with three inscriptions filled with mystery on its plaque: Zixiao Palace. Inside Zixiao Palace, six Saints sat on meditation cushions, silent. At the chief seat sat Taoist Hongjun. Taoist Hongjun looked at the six below him and said, "Due to the actions of a certain Saint who seized the reign of Heaven and Earth and established themselves as the principal figure, resulting in the Witch Demons being exterminated, Heaven Pillar collapsing, Sky Vault cracking, the Earth rupturing, Heavenly River overflowing, Earth Fire spilling out, poisoning countless." Nuwa looked down, honestly saying, "Teacher, I know my mistake, and I have already repaired the Sky Vault and sorted out the Earth Veins." Taoist Hongjun glanced at her and said, "A Calamity without intervention, reflect on this well." "Yes!" Nuwa responded respectfully. Taoist Hongjun extended his hand, and the Chaos Bell appeared in his palm. All Saints turned their eyes to the Chaos Bell, especially Tongtian and Zhunti, whose gazes were the most fervent. Taoist Hongjun, as if seeing nothing, said, "The Chaos Bell is banished to the void; it may be obtained by those with fate." With a wave of his hand, the Chaos Bell instantly disappeared without a trace. The faces of the Saints showed slight movements. The void was endless, and locating the Chaos Bell would be extremely difficult, but not without hope. Slowly, Taoist Hongjun said, "Under the Heavenly Dao there’s no eternal protagonist. The conflict between dragons and phoenixes, the battles of Witch Demons, and the competition of Ten Thousand Races have all taken place. However, now the Human Clan emerges out of the blue, taking the everlasting principal position. The Heaven and Earth return to order. The Heavenly Court should preside over the mountains and rivers. There should be a Heavenly Emperor to govern the Ten Thousand Spirits. Which of you has a suitable candidate?" All the Saints felt their hearts stir. The Lord of the Heavenly Court that governs the Primordial World? Tongtian immediately thought of his Senior Disciple Duobao, who cultivated the path of supreme individuality. If he could become the Lord of Heaven and Earth, his Tao would be fulfilled. He hurriedly said, "Master, I have a disciple named Duobao, who follows the path of ’I alone am honored.’ His talent is extraordinary, and he can be the Lord of the Heavenly Court." Zhunti shook his head and said, "Senior brother, the Lord of the Heavenly Court overseeing the mountains and rivers needs to embody virtue and benevolence. The path of ’I alone am honored’ is despotic, which is improper. Among my disciples is Mile, who is tolerant and generous, benevolent and rewarding. He can be the Lord of the Heavenly Court." Tongtian snorted and said, "Mile? Is that the little chubby one who only knows how to grin foolishly every day? Completely lacking in dignity, how could he be ruler of the Heavenly Court?" Zhunti’s eyebrows twitched a couple of times, a foolish fatty? Thinking it over carefully, it did seem a bit foolish! He had originally planned to designate Mile as the ruler of the Buddha Sect in the future, but now it appeared to be somewhat inappropriate. Taishang slowly said, "Master, I have only one disciple, Xuandu, and he is not fit to be the ruler of the Heavenly Court either. However, I recommend Bai Jin from Tongtian’s sect." Primordial nodded and said, "I recommend Guang Chengzi from my sect and Bai Jin from Tongtian’s sect." Tongtian’s face showed a pleased expression, and he laughed heartily, "Both my big and second brothers have recommended Bai Jin, if I were not to recommend him, that would make me seem petty and unwilling to let go. All right, I also recommend Bai Jin." Nuwa uttered a light laugh and said, "Then I shall also recommend Bai Jin." In a moment, Bai Jin gained the support of four Saints. Jieyin and Zhunti said no more, with four Saints offering their support, what was there to dispute? They prudently chose to give up and their desire for Bai Jin increased even more. When would our sweet nephew come to our Western Sect? All of the Saints looked up at the Master sitting in the principal seat. Taoist Hongjun slightly shook his head and said, "Bai Jin’s qualifications and temperament are insufficient, he cannot hold the lofty position of the Heavenly Emperor." Primordial asked, "How about Guang Chengzi?" "Guang Chengzi is overly competitive and lacks the right temperament." Jieyin asked, "Master, I have a disciple called Pharmacist, brimming with great compassion." Taoist Hongjun shook his head and said, "He lacks decisiveness and cannot be the Heavenly Emperor." Nuwa’s eyes brightened and said, "My elder brother Fu Xi has a True Spirit left behind, which can be reincarnated to become the Heavenly Emperor." Taoist Hongjun shook his head again and said, "Fu Xi owes a great karmic debt to the Human Clan, he cannot be the Heavenly Emperor." This one won’t do, that one won’t do, what are you asking us to recommend for? All the Saints realized that while the Master said he wanted us to recommend a Heavenly Emperor, in actuality, he had no intention of listening to us at all; it was just a formality. All of the Saints bowed respectfully and said, "The position of the Heavenly Emperor is of great importance, we request the Master to make the final decision." Taoist Hongjun revealed a slight smile and said, "Very well! Since none of you have an appropriate candidate, Haotian and Yaoshi, come out!" A boy and girl, two little Taoist disciples, walked forward from behind. The boy was handsome, and the girl was cute. They walked behind the six Saints and knelt on the futons respectfully calling out, "Greetings, Master!" Taoist Hongjun smiled and said, "Are you willing to become the rulers of the Heavenly Court, to govern the Primordial World?" Haotian and Yaoshi both blinked in astonishment, and bowed hastily, "We follow Master’s command with utmost respect." Joy could hardly be concealed in their eyes. "Stand up, all of you!" The Saints stood up together with Haotian and Yaoshi. The Saints turned around to watch Haotian and Yaoshi, the Master actually chose his own disciples. This was good as well, as they possessed sufficient status and were also neutral. Taoist Hongjun reached out with a gesture, and the figures of Haotian and Yaoshi swiftly grew larger, in the blink of an eye, they transformed from two little Taoist disciples into a serious-looking young man and a majestic young woman. Haotian and Yaoshi bowed and said with joy, "Thank you, Master!" Taoist Hongjun waved his hand and several streaks of light flew out, materializing into a purple pagoda, a divine mirror, and a divine sword that floated before Haotian. A small peach tree, a jade hairpin, and a small flag appeared before Yaoshi. "Haotian, I bestow upon you the Haotian Tower, Haotian Mirror, and Haotian Sword, to serve as the foundation of your being. Yaoshi, I bestow upon you the Innate Spirit Root Flat Peach Tree, Shaking Light Jade Hairpin, and Plain Cloud World Flag to serve as the foundation of your being." Haotian and Yaoshi both bowed excitedly, "Thank you, Master!"
