"Tongtian, what exactly are you trying to do?"
Tongtian bowed with his head lowered. "Master, why speak of intentions? Your disciple has always responded passively, acting only in self-defense. When have I ever taken the initiative to harm anyone?"
"You should know that in this Investiture of the Gods Tribulation, the Investiture of the Gods List must be filled. If the Jie Sect refuses to enter the list, the Primordial Wilderness cannot fill its vacancies, and the Tribulation Fortune cannot end."
Hongjun's tone returned to calm as he let out a soft sigh.
"I know you are fiercely protective of your disciples, but the survival of the Primordial Wilderness hangs by a thread. Such favoritism is unacceptable."
Tongtian sighed as well.
"Master, where did the Investiture of the Gods List... come from?"
"It was transformed from the Heavenly Dao."
Hongjun answered without hesitation.
"Why must the Heavenly Dao fill every vacancy on the Investiture of the Gods List? And after the investiture is complete, where will it lead?"
Tongtian had pondered this question over and over long ago.
"Once the investiture is complete, the Heavenly Court will naturally be established to govern the Three Realms."
The Dao Ancestor Hongjun's gaze flickered, and a trace of surprise appeared in his eyes. He had not expected Tongtian to strike directly at this point!
The moment those words were spoken, the Four Saints were all stunned, their expressions changing drastically.
The powerful figures of the Primordial Wilderness likewise paled, their hearts sinking.
Establish the Heavenly Court and rule the Three Realms?
For now, everyone relied on their own abilities and lived freely without restraint. Once the Heavenly Court was established, would they not all have to obey those above and be bound by rules?
Who would willingly submit?
Anyone with a clear mind
