Enlightenment Tea Tree! The Dominance of Human Sovereign Xuanyuan!

Penglai Immortal Island.

Ling Xiao lay at ease with his head resting on Wangshu's jade-like thighs.

Ding! Divine Choice Mission refreshed successfully!

Option One: Destroy the Demon Court and kill Lu Ya. Reward: Top-Grade Primordial Spiritual Treasure, Cosmos Diagram.

Option Two: Join forces with the Human Sovereigns and the Three Human Ancestors to scheme against Tongtian. Reward: Top-Grade Primordial Spiritual Root, Five-Needle Pine.

Option Three: Watch from the sidelines and see Tongtian regret it bitterly. Reward: Chaos Spiritual Root, Enlightenment Tea Tree.

The system's voice suddenly echoed in Ling Xiao's mind.

"So, the Human Sovereigns and the Three Human Ancestors are about to move against Tongtian and the Sect of Interception. If I am not mistaken, they are after the Human Emperor's Master positions held by the Sect of Interception's disciples, as well as the Human Dao supreme treasure, the Kongtong Seal."

"It is still too early to destroy the Demon Court, and Tongtian's suicidal actions have nothing to do with me."

"System, I choose option three!"

After pondering for a moment, Ling Xiao made his decision.

He did not lack spiritual treasures for the time being!

Compared to the Five-Needle Pine, the Enlightenment Tea Tree offered better value. After all, it was a Chaos Spiritual Root!

Congratulations to the host for obtaining the Enlightenment Tea Tree!

As the system's voice rang out again, a tea tree less than a zhang tall appeared within the system space. Hundreds of tea leaves grew upon its branches, each entwined with Great Dao laws and brimming with vitality and creation.

"Ling Xiao, what are you thinking about?"

Wangshu stroked Ling Xiao's long hair and asked gently.

Their fate as Dao companions was already Heaven's Mandate!

Wangshu did not resent this. Instead, she became even more indulgent toward Ling Xiao, while the love in her heart grew ever deeper.

"The Demon Court has been reestablished, causing a massive uproar throughout heaven and earth."

"Before long, we will get to watch a good show!"

Ling Xiao sat up and spoke to Wangshu.

With a wave of his jade sleeve, teacups and a teapot appeared atop the jade table.

Ling Xiao then boiled the Three Lights Divine Water and placed several Enlightenment Tea Leaves into the two cups. A faint green gradually emerged as the radiance of laws intertwined within the cups.

"Enlightenment Tea Leaves!"

"How is that possible?"

Wangshu's red lips parted slightly, and shock appeared on her beautiful face.

Hadn't the Enlightenment Tea Tree turned to ash during the Creation Calamity?

Hearing this, Ling Xiao took Wangshu's jade-like hand and said, "If I told you that I happened to obtain the Enlightenment Tea Tree by chance, would you believe me?"

"Have a taste. It should benefit your cultivation as well!"

Upon hearing Ling Xiao's words, Wangshu studied him seriously for a few moments.

"I believe you!"

Wangshu knew Ling Xiao was hiding secrets, but she had no desire to investigate them. As long as the two of them could remain as they were now, she would be content.

She lifted the teacup and took a small sip.

Its fragrance lingered on her lips and teeth, and endless insights surged forth. Even Wangshu nearly entered enlightenment, while her cultivation recovered considerably.

"Come, let us share a cup!"

Ling Xiao gently held Wangshu's jade-like hand. The two drank the Enlightenment Tea together, their atmosphere relaxed and natural.

Time passed, and the winds and clouds shifted.

Other than Fuxi, the Human Sovereigns and the Three Human Ancestors all broke their taboos and rode the Human Clan's providence from Fire Cloud Cave toward Golden Ao Island.

Strange phenomena arose as heaven and earth trembled.

This matter alarmed the Heavenly Dao Sages, as well as the Jade Emperor and Queen Mother of the Heavenly Court.

"Tongtian supported the reestablishment of the Demon Court. The ones he has offended are not merely our Heavenly Court. Both the Human Clan and the Netherworld share blood-deep enmity with the Demon Clan."

"Still, I did not expect the Human Clan's counterattack to come so quickly!"

Within Lingxiao Palace, Haotian's mouth nearly stretched to his ears.

Logically speaking, after the Demon Court's reestablishment, the Heavenly Court should have been the first to panic.

At first, Haotian and Yaochi had been furious as well. But seeing that Ling Xiao showed no reaction, and that the Demon Court had initially failed to gain recognition from either the Heavenly Dao or the Dao Ancestor, they finally calmed down.

Now that the Human Clan's Great Beings had emerged, Haotian's mood instantly improved.

"Senior Brother, how about we go to Golden Ao Island and watch the show?"

A mischievous smile flashed across Yaochi's dignified and noble face.

The Human Sovereigns and the Three Human Ancestors were not people even Tongtian could afford to offend. Otherwise, the Human Clan's providence under his control would become unstable, and who knew what consequences that might bring.

"Junior Sister has spoken straight to my heart."

"After the show, we will head to Penglai Immortal Island to visit Dao Friend Ling Xiao. He and the Lunar Goddess have the fate of Dao companions. So long as the master issues a decree, they can prove their Heavenly Marriage!"

Very soon!

Heavenly soldiers and generals guarded them from all sides, while Venus Tai Bai accompanied Haotian and Yaochi. The group left the Thirty-three Heavens and headed toward Golden Ao Island.

The vast East Sea surged with rolling waves.

Before Golden Ao Island, figures gathered in great numbers.

Haotian, Yaochi, Zhen Yuanzi, Daoist Hong Yun... all the Primordial Wilderness Great Beings who enjoyed watching excitement had descended here, waiting to see how Tongtian would deal with the Human Clan.

Ling Xiao and Wangshu sat upon the World-Ending Black Lotus. The Qingping Sword hung behind Ling Xiao. He appeared utterly disdainful toward the Sect of Interception's members, but in truth, his mockery was at its peak.

That was because!

The Qingping Sword had originally been Tongtian's natal supreme treasure, yet it had now fallen into Ling Xiao's hands.

"Little Friend Ling Xiao, you truly know how to hold a grudge!"

Daoist Hong Yun and Zhen Yuanzi landed atop the World-Ending Black Lotus. The former could not help laughing and immediately clapped in approval.

Looking around, the other Great Beings pointed and whispered.

The Sect of Interception disciples on Golden Ao Island were filled with righteous indignation. Dingguang Immortal, Zhao Gongming, and the Golden-Winged Great Peng in particular wished they could tear Ling Xiao apart.

"Senior Hong Yun, I do not understand what you mean!"

"Once this disturbance is over, Great Immortal Zhenyuan and Senior Hong Yun may accompany me to Penglai Immortal Island as guests. I have something good there to give you!"

Ling Xiao said meaningfully.

Wangshu's gaze remained calm, her face gentle. She knew what Ling Xiao was referring to.

"Dao Friend Ling Xiao, that is hardly fair!"

"The Queen Mother and I will also visit Penglai Immortal Island and trouble you for a while..."

Haotian brought Yaochi with him as they landed atop the World-Ending Black Lotus.

For a moment!

This scene drew the attention of all the Great Beings. They had not expected Ling Xiao to wield such influence, though once they remembered that he was the Great Emperor of the Azure Radiance, they found it understandable.

But the Sect of Interception disciples were grinding their teeth in hatred!

"Jade Emperor, Queen Mother, how could I possibly neglect you?"

"The good things I mentioned include a share for you as well. Moreover, I must trouble the Jade Emperor to make a trip to Zixiao Palace..."

Ling Xiao chuckled, immediately arousing Haotian's interest.

However, with so many people around, Haotian did not ask further. He merely looked Ling Xiao and Wangshu over, a mysterious smile rising at the corners of his lips.

Boom!

The Human Sovereigns and the Three Human Ancestors descended.

Every one of their auras had reached the peak of the Quasi-Sage realm. Shennong and Xuanyuan's auras far surpassed the others, and a faint trace of sage might lurked within the mana they emitted.

Suiren took a step forward, stirring ten-thousand-zhang waves across the East Sea and making Golden Ao Island tremble. Endless tidal waves, as though capable of destroying heaven and earth, swept toward Golden Ao Island.

"Tongtian, show yourself!"

Xuanyuan held a longsword, unleashing endless killing intent and murderous aura.

"Dao Friends, what exactly are you trying to do?"

Left with no choice, Tongtian could only reveal himself!

He sat upon a Cloud Terrace, magnificent sage might flowing from him, his face filled with helplessness.

The Demon Court's reestablishment had not brought disaster upon the Demon Clan or Nuwa. Instead, Tongtian was the one suffering for it. This caught him utterly off guard, and he had never expected all the Human Clan's Great Beings to appear.

"Do not play dumb!"

"The Human Clan and the Demon Clan are irreconcilable enemies. Today, this Human Sovereign demands an explanation from you! Hand over the Kongtong Seal, and have those Sect of Interception disciples willingly sever their karmic ties with the Human Clan!"

"If you remain stubborn, then this Human Sovereign will have no choice but to act personally!"

Xuanyuan was decisive and ruthless, with no tolerance for compromise.

Among all the Human Sovereigns, only he had ascended to the position of Human Clan leader through bloody battles. Thus, he did not care for Tongtian's dignity or his status as a sage. He only wished to help the Human Clan vent this resentment.

"How outrageous!"

"How can you speak to your master like this? Have you forgotten all the teachings I once gave you?"

Yun Xiao was heartbroken as she questioned Xuanyuan.

That was right!

During the era of the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors, she had been Xuanyuan's master and enjoyed the exalted position of Human Emperor's Master!

"Hehe..."

"The Sect of Interception was able to occupy several Human Emperor's Master positions not because of you, Yun Xiao, or the others, but because of the Great Emperor of the Azure Radiance. He is the senior who truly cared for the Human Clan."

"If the Sect of Interception wishes to achieve anything in the Investiture of the Gods Tribulation, then sever the karmic ties of the Human Emperor's Master positions with dignity and hand over our Human Clan's supreme treasure. Otherwise, do not blame this Human Sovereign for refusing to leave you any dignity!"

His words were deafening and forceful.

Before the Human Clan's interests and dignity, Yun Xiao was not qualified to make Xuanyuan waver.

Ling Xiao, seated atop the World-Ending Black Lotus, held his forehead and sighed softly.

How had watching the show ended up involving him?
