Chapter 416: Chapter 373: The Various Zis Descend to the Lower Realm Upon hearing Bai Jin’s explanation, Yun Xiao suddenly realized and said: "So that’s how it is! Eldest senior brother has indeed thought everything through." Wuyun Immortal also sighed and said: "Eldest senior brother, you really are far-sighted! We are nowhere near your level." Bai Jin said with a proud and cheerful smile: "This is the art of governance. While you may have surpassed me in the path of cultivation, there’s still much for you to learn in other areas!" At the banquet, everyone was nodding their heads in agreement, admiringly looking at Bai Jin. Eldest senior brother truly deserves the title, understanding even the art of governance to such an extent, it’s simply amazing. Meanwhile, within the Heavenly Court Jade Pond, Hao Tian and Yaochi were also drinking and making merry, celebrating the establishment of Heavenly Tribulation, and the suppression and incorporation of the Demon Tribulation. Yaochi Saint Mother said with a smile: "Hao Tian, now that the Heavenly Demon Tribulation has been suppressed by the Heavenly Tribulation, you should thank Bai Jin a lot!" Hao Tian laughed heartily and said: "Of course, indeed I should thank him. If not for him, who knows how long it would have taken to resolve the Heavenly Demon Tribulation." Yaochi said with a hint of annoyance: "Heavenly Tribulation, you couldn’t even come up with such a simple solution? And you still have the cheek to be the Heavenly Emperor?" "Cough cough~" The Heavenly Emperor Hao Tian coughed twice, then explained: "I indeed hadn’t thought in that direction. In the past Primordial World battles, it was always you devising plans and me countering them. But just copying your moves is something I’ve never done. Moreover, I couldn’t do it. I am the Three Realms Emperor after all, and I have my reputation to maintain!" Yaochi frowned slightly and said: "So, you let Bai Jin carry the bad reputation?" Hao Tian’s eyes flickered, and he said with an awkward smile: "Yaochi, this was his own idea after all." Yaochi pointed at Hao Tian’s forehead and said with dissatisfaction: "Bai Jin kindly helped you, and yet you scheme against him like this, beware that he doesn’t turn to Buddhism instead." "Don’t worry! I will compensate him well." "Your Majesty, your old servant requests an audience with Your Majesty!" A voice called from outside. Hao Tian and Yaochi promptly straightened up, sitting upright in their seats. Hao Tian authoritatively said: "Come in!" Gold Star Taibai quickly walked in from outside, bowing deeply and saying: "Greetings to Your Majesty, greetings to the Queen Mother~" The Heavenly Emperor Hao Tian asked: "What’s the matter?" Gold Star Taibai respectfully said: "Your Majesty, previously you ordered me to keep watch on the matter of the Heavenly Tribulation. I am here to report back." "Oh? What is the Lower Realm’s view on the Heavenly Tribulation?" "Reporting to Your Majesty: I discovered that some in the Primordial World are deliberately spreading rumors, saying that Your Majesty is brilliant and valiant, with fortune covering the Primordial World. By your sole effort, you established the Heavenly Thunder Tribulation and suppressed the Heavenly Demon Tribulation, thereby protecting all beings." Hao Tian was momentarily stunned, a sense of foreboding rose in his heart, and he quickly asked: "Who spread this?" Gold Star Taibai said with a forced smile: "Although I also feel this statement is quite accurate, fearing that others may be scheming against Your Majesty, I specifically investigated. After an extensive inquiry, I traced it back to a Gu Liang Fairy in Gouchen Palace. The Gu Liang Fairy said that it is right after the Divine Enthronement, a moment for the Heavenly Court to assert its authority. In consideration of Your Majesty’s worries, they attributed the establishment of the Heavenly Realm to Your Majesty, aiming to let Your Majesty’s influence press over the Primordial World. Your Majesty, Emperor Gouchen is truly admirable, helping you without counting the cost or gain." Hao Tian stared blankly, his lips quivering. Bai Jin, my nephew in the way of the Tao, do I also have to thank you for this? Gold Star Taibai added joyfully: "Your Majesty, this rumor has now spread across the Primordial World, and countless beings are feeling grateful for Your Majesty’s kindness!" Grateful for kindness? A glimmer of vitality flashed in Hao Tian’s eyes, and he quickly asked: "Is there any other opinion?" Gold Star Taibai hesitated for a moment, then said softly: "There are some subtler voices claiming that Your Majesty’s action is unbecoming of your status, but these are not important. The majority of the Immortal Gods are grateful to Your Majesty." Heavenly Emperor Hao Tian’s eyes flickered, have I lost my dignity? Is this to say I should not rigidly adhere to face? Feeling somewhat aggrieved in his heart, but this really wasn’t my doing! As time goes by, people will come to recognize this more and more, oh my reputation! Heavenly Emperor Hao Tian hurriedly spoke, "Taibai, go and issue an edict, say that I appreciate Emperor Gouchen’s creation of the Heavenly Tribulation to benefit the Primordial World, and thus bestow upon him ten pairs of Flat Peaches." Taibai Golden Immortal was slightly taken aback, does Your Majesty not care for this reputation? "What are you waiting for, go and broadcast it with gongs and drums." Taibai Golden Immortal felt a surge of emotion, as the relationship between His Majesty and Emperor Gouchen was genuinely good! Both showing modesty to each other, he immediately responded with respect, "As you command!" and turned to walk outside. "Hold on!" The voice of the Yaochi Saint Mother sounded. Taibai Golden Immortal halted his steps, turned to look at Yaochi, and said respectfully, "Your Highness, do you have any instructions?" Yaochi smiled and said, "There’s no need for the edict, just directly send thirty pairs of the freshest Flat Peaches picked from the Immortal Peach Orchard." Taibai Golden Immortal subconsciously glanced at Heavenly Emperor Hao Tian. Heavenly Emperor Hao Tian was about to speak. "Mhm~" Queen Mother turned her head to look at Hao Tian, her phoenix eyes narrowed slightly, showing a hint of coldness. Heavenly Emperor shrank his neck and said with a cough and authority, "What are you still waiting for? Hurry and follow the Queen Mother’s orders." "Yes~" Taibai Golden Immortal turned around and swiftly ran outside. Heavenly Emperor Hao Tian smiled, "Now is it fine, Yaochi?" Yaochi frowned and said, "Bai Jin has been so considerate of you, how rare is such a nephew? How can you haggle with him? As for scheming the Heavenly Tribulation, you take the lead." Heavenly Emperor Hao Tian nodded repeatedly, smiling ingratiatingly, "What Yaochi says is very true." Yaochi then changed the subject, "Although the Heavenly Demon Tribulation has been suppressed by the Heavenly Thunder, and only a fraction of the Heavenly Demon’s power remains, it still has the ability to lure Cultivators into demonhood, what should be done next?" Heavenly Emperor changed from his ingratiating smile to a serious tone, "That’s up to them, to become a demon or an immortal depends on a single thought, and moreover, many Great Powers of the Primordial World have gone down to teach, everything will get better." Yaochi said with furrowed brows, "I hope so! Kui Gang, that instigator of the Heavenly Demon Tribulation, always makes me feel a bit uneasy." Heavenly Emperor opened his arms warmly, "Come! I will protect you." Yaochi rolled her eyes, "Xuan Nu, Chang’e, let’s play mahjong." "Coming~" Xuan Nu and Chang’e floated in from afar, their Immortal Dresses fluttering, their faces smiling. "Cough cough~" Heavenly Emperor Hao Tian quickly stood up, urgently saying, "It’s also getting late, I have important matters to deal with, I shall take my leave!" Without waiting for Yaochi to respond, he immediately walked briskly outside, and his figure flashed and vanished in an instant. Xuan Nu and Chang’e giggled behind their hands. ... Ten years later in the Heavenly Court, more than three thousand six hundred years had passed in the Earth Immortal Realm, the Zhou Dynasty had perished, entering the chaotic Spring and Autumn period. Many Great Powers of the Primordial World, responding to the Saints’ invitations, went down to the Lower Realm to teach, and for a time, the Hundred Schools vied for dominance. Different from the previous life, the Hundred Schools of the Primordial World now included a new addition: the Zen School. Inside the Heavenly Court, Bai Jin lay leisurely in a Bird’s Nest, enjoying fruits, one indeed had to admit that the treatment in the Heavenly Court was excellent, being able to eat many fruits he had never tasted before, very comfortable. Gu Liang bounded in from outside, exclaiming noisily, "Senior Brother, Senior Brother~" Bai Jin, reclining on the sun lounger, beckoned with a smile, "I’m right here!" Gu Liang ran over and sat down on a nearby sun lounger, she stretched out her hand and grabbed a handful of bright red cherries, tossing them into her mouth.
