Chapter 164: Chapter 154, Heading to the Heavenly Court Bai Jin was still in a daze when Taishang waved his great hand, and with an alarmed shout from Bai Jin, his figure instantly vanished within the Eight Sceneries Palace. In the silent grand hall, Taishang helplessly said, "Out of all people, why provoke those two? Isn’t this just asking for trouble?" He called out, "Xuandu!" Xuandu walked in from the outside, bowed respectfully, and said, "Master!" "Go to the Alchemy Hall and get two bottles of Nine Revolutions Golden Pills, and send them to Wa Emperor Heaven and the Underworld." "How should the disciple phrase this?" "Just say it’s your master showing gratitude for their care towards Bai Jin, and these are gifts of thanks. They will naturally understand." "Your disciple obeys the command." Xuandu walked backward out of the Eight Sceneries Palace, only then turning around to leave, truly frightened by Bai Jin’s words, not daring to turn his back on others for a while. Thousands of miles away from Shouyang Mountain, a streak of light flashed by, and Bai Jin’s figure abruptly appeared, looking resentfully at Shouyang Mountain thinking, Eldest Uncle, you can’t play like this, this really makes my heart flutter! After a moment, a pair of wings rose behind him with a whoosh and with a shake of the wings, he shot up through the clouds, entering seclusion for two days to contemplate how to persuade Senior Hao Tian to lay out the Heavenly Curtain. After two days, he realized the only bargaining chip he could offer were the disciples of his master, but if he were to give away the disciples of his master, wouldn’t the master be angry enough not to speak to him anymore? In the end, he could only resort to using his own special skills, to bluster and give it a try. ... In front of South Heavenly Gate, auspicious clouds drifted ethereally. A table was set before the Heavenly Gate, and behind it sat an old man nodding off to sleep. A fierce light flashed in front of the Heavenly Gate, startling Li Changgeng awake, who quickly stood up. As the light dissipated, Bai Jin’s figure appeared, wearing an innocent and friendly smile, and said, "Old sir, is this where the Heavenly Court is located?" Li Changgeng was momentarily unsure of Bai Jin’s origins and stroking his beard he said, "This indeed is the Heavenly Court. Where do you come from? Are you here for recruitment? Although our Heavenly Court is in its early stages with not many staff, it is extremely significant to the Three Realms and has a broad future. Your decision to come here for recruitment is the wisest choice. With the care of His Majesty, you will certainly become a great god renowned across the Three Realms." Bai Jin replied with a smile, "I, Bai Jin, a Jie Sect Disciple, request an audience with my uncle, please pass on the message." Li Changgeng’s expression changed, and with surprise he said, "Saint Disciple..." He hastily gestured and said, "Please forgive any neglect on my part, Immortal, please follow me!" Bai Jin followed Li Changgeng into and through the Heavenly Gate. This being his very first visit to the Heavenly Court, for he had never visited when the Demon Court was controlled by the Demon Clan, he couldn’t resist looking around everywhere – pavilions and towers, palaces of jade, spirit ponds rippling, and divine flowers and Immortal elms. Li Changgeng introduced cheerfully, "All of these were personally managed by His Majesty. After the dilapidation of the Demon Clan, even the waters of the pond were looted; they didn’t show the slightest virtue or principle." He couldn’t help praising, "Yet our Emperor of Heaven is a paragon of virtue and magnanimity, amiable, very different from the cold despotism of the former Demon Emperor." "Have you met the Demon Emperor?" "I haven’t, but I’ve heard that the Demon Emperor is tyrannical and callous." The two strolled through the sky as if in a leisurely garden and occasionally encountered several maids, all of whom bowed respectfully. After a while, they saw a man in a purple robe standing in front of a palace, smiling. Li Changgeng whispered, "This is His Majesty, the Emperor of Heaven." Bai Jin nodded and quickly stepped forward to bow respectfully, saying, "Disciple Bai Jin pays respect to Uncle." Hao Tian quickly stepped forward, reached out to help Bai Jin to his feet, and said warmly, "I have long heard that Brother Tongtian has a disciple who is unparalleled in talent. I didn’t expect you to have reached the Daluo Realm already. Among the younger generation, you truly deserve the highest respect. Remarkable, truly remarkable." Bai Jin rose to his feet and humbly said, "This modest achievement of mine does not warrant such praise from my senior uncle." The Jade Emperor turned towards Li Changgeng with a kind expression and said, "Changgeng, go to the Turquoise Pool and notify them that today I wish to keep my nephew apprentice Bai Jin for a meal." Li Changgeng bowed deeply and respectfully said, "Yes!" Bai Jin hurriedly said, "Your Majesty, there’s no need to trouble yourself." "It’s no trouble at all; just a family dinner." The Jade Emperor, pulling Bai Jin’s arm, said with a smile, "Come! Follow me inside." Bai Jin followed the Jade Emperor towards the palace, through the long corridors, entering the inner hall. Senior Hao Tian sat down at the main seat, with Bai Jin sitting to the left below him. With a wave of his hand, Senior Hao Tian conjured drinks and snacks in front of Bai Jin, laughing as he said, "These are specialties of the Heavenly Court, Flat Peach Mooncakes and Osmanthus Wine. Please, have a taste." Bai Jin took a small bite of the mooncake, and immediately, a rich fragrance burst forth in his mouth, accompanied by a surge of Immortal Spirit Qi, prompting him to say with appreciation, "Delicious!" Senior Hao Tian laughed heartily and said, "I’m glad you like it, nephew apprentice. Later, you can take some with you." "Thank you, senior uncle~" Bai Jin quickly finished the mooncake in his hand, stood up, bowed with hands clasped together and said, "I heard of my senior uncle’s ascension to the Heavenly Emperor, and I should have come to pay my respects earlier. Only because of the busy undertakings in the Underworld was I delayed. Please accept this modest gift from me, and do not take offense." Several Spiritual Treasures appeared in front of him. Senior Hao Tian said with a smile, "You are too courteous, nephew apprentice. The affairs of the Underworld are related to the very essence of the Primordial World; they are equally important." Senior Hao Tian reached out and took the Spiritual Treasures. Although these Acquired Spiritual Treasures were not overly precious, the thought behind them was quite rare. And what’s considered not very precious is from his own perspective—the collection might be all that his nephew apprentice had! He felt a warmth in his heart thinking, my nephew apprentice Bai Jin is indeed too polite! Senior Hao Tian shook his head helplessly and said, "I won’t hide it from you, nephew apprentice; you are the first to come and congratulate me. The others clearly don’t take this Heavenly Emperor seriously." Bai Jin stood straight, shocked as he said, "How could that be?!" Senior Hao Tian smiled bitterly and did not speak, thinking that in the eyes of those Great Powers of the Primordial World, he was still the Daoist Disciple from Zixiao Palace. Nonchalantly, he said, "Let’s not talk about that. I’m very happy that you could come, nephew apprentice. Today, we shall not return until we are drunk." "Senior uncle, I actually don’t drink much." Senior Hao Tian chuckled and asked, "How can a good man not drink?!" Bai Jin said, "Senior uncle, in fact, I am here on the orders of my Master and two senior uncles." "Hm~" Senior Hao Tian’s heart flashed with surprise, realizing it was the three senior brothers who had sent him, and immediately asked with a smile, "What do my senior brothers wish of me by sending you here?" "Master and the senior uncles said that since you are their junior brother, they sent me to see if there’s anything you need help with." Senior Hao Tian’s eyes lit up and he said eagerly, "Nephew apprentice, as you’ve seen, my Heavenly Court is newly established and severely understaffed. I’ve heard that when the Jie Sect’s ten thousand immortals appeared, it was quite a spectacle." "Senior uncle, when you sent out the call across the Primordial World to host a recruitment event, we all heard about it. Right away, my Master hinted that he encouraged the Jie Sect Disciples to apply for positions at the Heavenly Court." Senior Hao Tian nodded repeatedly and said, "Indeed, disciples from the Jie Sect did come to apply, and they’ve mentioned this. My senior brother is truly righteous!" Regretfully he added, "But it’s a pity, in the end, none stayed behind." This chapter is updated by freew(e)bnovel.(c)om
