Chapter 202

Purple Heavens Palace.

A figure tore through the void and landed silently in front of the palace gate.

As Chu Feng stepped into the Purple Heavens Palace, a familiar yet aloof Daoist aura washed over him.

Hongjun slowly opened his eyes. "What has troubled you so much that you have come in such a hurry?"

Chu Feng stepped forward, his solemn expression softening into concern. "I've come to see you. How have you been lately? How's your cultivation progressing?"

Hongjun nodded slightly, his tone calm. "Everything is normal, the Heavenly Dao is stable, and I am unharmed."

This conversation, which sounds like a casual greeting between a married couple, actually carries a sense of estrangement.

Chu Feng sighed inwardly, then cut to the chase. "I just got back from Ancestral Dragon."

"When I discussed philosophy with her, I found that she could easily suppress me."

Upon hearing this, a barely perceptible hint of surprise flashed in Hongjun's eyes.

Suppressing Chu Feng?

How is that possible?

She knew Chu Feng's strength better than anyone else; even she herself, without using the power of Heaven, would not be a match for him in a single move.

Ancestral Dragon was merely Primordial Grand Unity Golden Immortal, and there was an insurmountable chasm between him and Chu Feng.

"Is this true?" Hongjun's voice rose a few decibels.

"Absolutely true."

Chu Feng's expression was extremely serious. "If I hadn't experienced it myself, I wouldn't have believed it either."

Hongjun frowned slightly, and his supreme divine sense instantly spread out, sweeping across the entire Primordial World like ripples on water, landing directly in the Dragon Palace.

A moment later, she withdrew her divine sense, the surprise in her eyes disappearing.

"I've investigated. The Ancestral Dragon shows no abnormalities; his cultivation remains at the Primordial Grand Unity Golden Immortal. His origin is stable, and there are no signs of any external force supporting him."

She looked at Chu Feng and said slowly, "Perhaps you are overthinking it."

"Overthinking?" Chu Feng smiled wryly.

That feeling of being completely suppressed—could it be an illusion?

But he knew that the results of Hongjun's investigation with his divine sense would be accurate.

After all, she can now mobilize the power of Heaven.

Since he couldn't figure it out, he wasn't one to dwell on things.

Chu Feng suppressed his doubts for the time being, put on a playful smile, and leaned close to Hongjun, lowering his voice:

"Honey, let's not talk about this anymore. It's been so long since we last saw each other, have you missed me?"

A rare blush appeared on Hongjun's cheeks, but it was quickly covered by his cool demeanor.

She gently scolded, "Nonsense! The Witch-Demon Calamity have just ended, Primordial World world is in ruins, with a new war brewing."

"I still need to consolidate my cultivation, unravel the Heavenly secrets, and lay the groundwork for the next great calamity. You must not disturb me here."

Chu Feng smiled slightly, took a step forward, and lightly touched her brow with his fingertip, saying in a low voice, "You're always so tense, do you know how much it hurts me to see you like this? Although the great calamity is about to begin, you are not alone in bearing it."

In Chu Feng's view, his cultivation has now skyrocketed, reaching the same level as the Heavenly Dao, so Hongjun doesn't need to work so hard at all.

Chu Feng was also searching for a way for Hongjun to improve his cultivation.

The Heavenly Dao and Hongjun are inseparable; if one wants to enhance her strength, enhancing the Heavenly Dao's strength is undoubtedly the best approach.

However, Chu Feng couldn't fathom the will of Heaven, so he could only take it one step at a time.

Hongjun's eyelashes trembled slightly, and he subconsciously turned his head away. His voice remained clear and cold, but it had lost some of its sternness.

"You don't understand. Every step I take affects the fate of countless lives. If the plan is disrupted, who will bear the calamity of the backlash?"

I understand.

He interrupted her, placing his palm on the back of her slightly cool hand and slowly interlocking their fingers. "I don't understand the Heavenly secrets, nor do I delve into the great Dao. I only understand you."

You set up formations for the common people, and I will guard your heart; you unravel the Heavenly secrets, and I will shield you from worries, so you don't have to bear everything alone."

Upon hearing this, Hongjun chuckled and scolded, "You glib tongue, get out of here! If you bother me again, I won't let you summon Luohu."

"No, no, no, I'll leave, okay?"

Chu Feng was in a bind. If Luohu really came, the two of them would fight again.

Knowing it was better to avoid trouble, Chu Feng, realizing he had made a fool of himself, quickly backed down.

"Alright, alright, you go ahead with your important business, I'm just an idle person and won't get in your way."

Chu Feng shrugged, turned and walked out. "I'm going to check on Yuanfeng at the Volcano of Immortality."

Before he finished speaking, his figure had already disappeared at the entrance of the Purple Heavens Palace.

Looking in the direction Chu Feng had left, Hongjun's eyes were filled with complex emotions. He remained silent for a long time before letting out a soft sigh.

No sooner had Chu Feng left than Hongjun's cold voice rang out in the palace. "Haotian, Yaochi, come to see me immediately."

In a flash of light, two figures appeared below the hall, kneeling respectfully. "What are your orders, Master?"

Hongjun's gaze fell on Haotian, his voice majestic and solemn. "Haotian, the Demon Clan Heavenly Court is now only a name, the order of the Primordial World has collapsed, and the Three Realms cannot be without a ruler for even a day."

I wish to appoint you as the ruler of Heavenly Court. Are you willing?

Haotian was taken aback upon hearing this.

After the demon race left, they went to protect the Primordial World in the outer starry sky.

With the demon race gone and the Witch Clan withdrawing from the struggle for supremacy, all factions are now eager to make a move against the Immortal Court.

Haotian trembled with excitement and kowtowed deeply. "Disciple is willing! Thank you, Master, for your kindness! Disciple will certainly live up to your expectations and restore order to the Three Realms!"

Hongjun nodded, then looked at Yaochi: "Yaochi, you shall be the Queen Mother, assisting Haotian and jointly ruling the Heavenly Court."

Yaochi quickly kowtowed in gratitude. "Thank you for your kindness, Teacher."

Haotian suppressed his excitement and looked up, saying, "Reporting to Master, the Witch-Demon War has just ended, and the powerful figures of all races have suffered heavy casualties or gone into seclusion."

"Recruiting immortals and gods to fill the positions of the various righteous gods... I'm afraid that will be somewhat troublesome."

Hongjun's eyes were indifferent, as if he had already seen through everything. "You only need to use my name as the Child to proclaim to the Primordial World that the Immortal Court will be rebuilt."

As for manpower, I have my own arrangements."

"Your disciple obeys!"

Haotian and Yaochi felt reassured and respectfully accepted the order to leave.

Soon, an Imperial Decree was issued from the Purple Heavens Palace, resounding throughout the entire Primordial World world, from the mouth of Haotian: "By the Imperial Decree, the Immortal Court is re-established to restore order to the Three Realms!"

I am Haotian, now the Heavenly Emperor, Yaochi is the Queen Mother. All virtuous immortals may enter the Heavenly Court and participate in this grand event!

Like a stone thrown into a still pond, this Imperial Decree stirred up a thousand waves, causing the once-dormant Primordial World to boil once more.

Meanwhile, Chu Feng had already arrived at the Volcano of Immortality.

Unlike the serene atmosphere of the Purple Heavens Palace, this place is filled with a vibrant and boundless life force.

The Southern Bright Lihuo Ming dynasty, far from being destructive, nourished this land.

As soon as she landed, a beautiful figure, accompanied by a fragrant breeze, joyfully rushed up and affectionately took his arm.

"My husband, you've come!"

The newcomer possessed unparalleled beauty and imposing phoenix eyes; it was none other than Yuanfeng.

Chu Feng smiled and nodded, reaching out to gently stroke the tip of her pert nose, but the worry between his brows remained.

Yuanfeng, being perceptive, immediately noticed something amiss and asked with concern, "Husband, is something troubling you?"

Chu Feng pulled her to sit on the jade stone under the Divine Parasol Tree and asked in a deep voice, "Ah Feng, let me ask you, has the Ancestral Dragon shown any unusual behavior recently?"

"The Ancestral Dragon?"

Yuanfeng frowned slightly, pondered for a moment, and shook her head. "I haven't heard anything unusual about her."

She has always lived a secluded life, spending her time cultivating in seclusion in the East China Sea.

Husband, has something happened?

Chu Feng sighed and recounted the events that had recently occurred in the East China Sea.

When Ancestral Dragon heard that Zu Long had actually suppressed Chu Feng, her Yuanfeng eyes widened instantly, filled with disbelief.

"How is this possible!"

She exclaimed, "Husband, your cultivation is far superior to hers. Even if she used all her skills, she couldn't possibly harm you in the slightest, let alone suppress you! How did she manage to do that?"

"That's the problem, I don't know either."

Chu Feng rubbed his temples. "Hongjun also investigated, and the Ancestral Dragon is perfectly normal."

Yuanfeng's expression turned serious.

She trusted Chu Feng's judgment and Hongjun's investigation.

The contradiction makes the situation seem rather strange.

She hesitated for a moment, then a resolute glint flashed in her eyes. "Husband, this matter is strange. Why don't I send word to her and we ask her about it face to face?"

Chu Feng thought about it and realized that this was the only way.

"Fine, let's see how she explains it."

Yuanfeng immediately sent a message to Ancestral Dragon.

Before long, the Ancestral Dragon appeared.

When she saw Chu Feng and Yuanfeng, a smile appeared on her face, and she bowed slightly, saying, "Greetings, my husband."

When Ancestral Dragon's gaze fell on Chu Feng, his eyes were clear, as if nothing had happened.

Chu Feng stared into her eyes, trying to discern something from them, but all he saw was complete composure.

He took a deep breath and slowly said, "Tell me, do you remember what happened in the East China Sea not long ago?"
