Queen Mother of the West Takes Charge of the Heavenly Court

The battle between Candle Dragon and Haotian ended in mutual destruction.

This result exceeded everyone's expectations, yet it also felt somewhat inevitable.

Was Haotian innocent? Obviously not!

He suffered this calamity because he attacked the Dragon Clan first.

Moreover, given Haotian's merits and foundation, becoming the Heavenly Emperor was already a very difficult feat.

Even with Hongjun's mandate, he would find it difficult to secure the position of Heavenly Emperor.

This calamity is something that Haotian must go through.

It was simply reflected on the Candle Dragon's body.

As for Candle Dragon...

Even if Haotian is incompetent, he is still the Heavenly Emperor of the Heavenly Court, protected by the Heavenly Court's Fortune.

Killing the Heavenly Emperor will inevitably result in a backlash from the Heavenly Court's Fortune.

Although the war has ended, its impact continues.

This is especially true for the Dragon Clan.

The Dragon Clan was as overjoyed and excited when Candle Dragon was born, but now they are filled with the same fear.

That was the Heavenly Emperor, yet Candle Dragon actually killed Heavenly Emperor directly.

If Candle Dragon were still alive, no one would dare to provoke the Dragon Clan in the future.

But the crucial point is that Candle Dragon perished.

With the Dragon Clan's current strength, how can they withstand the Heavenly Court's retaliation?

In an instant, all the Dragon Clan fell silent, awaiting their fate.

The Heavenly Court is also having a tough time.

Even if one knows that Haotian is destined for this calamity, being able to choose to reincarnate and undergo the calamity is still different from being forced to undergo it.

The killing of the Heavenly Emperor also brought the Heavenly Court's prestige to its lowest point.

"Although the Heavenly Emperor has passed away after undergoing tribulations, the Heavenly Court must not be thrown into chaos because of this."

At this critical moment, the Heavenly Court must unite as one to maintain the stability of heaven and earth!

Inside the Lingxiao Treasure Hall, the Queen Mother of the West's aura surged, making her appear even more majestic and sacred.

Having undergone tribulation in her reincarnation, Haotian is now the sole ruler of the Heavenly Court, and it is even more crucial for her to stabilize the Heavenly Court's operations at this time.

Under the arrangement of the Queen Mother of the West, the celestial beings in Heavenly Court, who had been feeling uneasy, returned to calm.

They were all well aware that, in terms of cultivation and strength, the Queen Mother of the West was still above Haotian.

Previously, Haotian had also relied heavily on the Queen Mother of the West.

As long as the Queen Mother of the West is still alive, the Heavenly Court will not be in chaos.

After arranging the immortals, the Lingxiao Treasure Hall returned to silence, with only the Queen Mother of the West and Cihang remaining in the hall.

"Congratulations, fellow Daoist, on taking sole command of the Heavenly Court!"

Cihang smiled and congratulated the Queen Mother of the West.

For the Queen Mother of the West, the reincarnation of Haotian was not actually a bad thing.

"What is there to be happy about? Although the Heavenly Court has great fortune, it can actively gather Karma, and disputes will continue."

Now that Haotian has been reincarnated and is undergoing tribulations, who knows when he will be able to return successfully!

The Queen Mother of the West did not feel joy at having absolute power; instead, she was filled with worry.

The Heavenly Court is indeed the center of the rules and order of heaven and earth, but with the presence of the sages, the Heavenly Court's authority has been greatly suppressed.

It was alright before because Haotian was there; even if he wasn't a good cultivator, he still came from the Zixiao Palace.

Now, however, she has to bear the pressure brought by all the saints alone.

The Queen Mother of the West was filled with uncertainty about the future.

Moreover, unlike Haotian, although she also cared about the power and fortune of the Heavenly Court, she did not rely on it entirely.

Her essence has always been the Primordial Chaos Path.

The reason they agreed to take over the Heavenly Court was merely to Heavenly Court's Fortune and merits to assist their own cultivation.

But what the Heavenly Court is facing now is still beyond her expectations.

She didn't want to become the next Di Jun and Tai Yi.

"Fellow Daoist, there is no need to worry."

What you're worried about won't happen.

Even if the Heavenly Court is weak, it is still the legitimate authority of Heaven and Earth, protected by the Dao Ancestor Hongjun. The Sanqing Ones cannot go too far."

Cihang gently offered words of advice.

The Queen Mother of the West and Di Jun and Tai Yi are different.

She had neither the ambition to dominate the Primordial World nor the need to compete with the Sanqing Ones.

Moreover, Haotian was merely undergoing a tribulation and reincarnation; he did not truly perish.

The true ruler of Heavenly Court is still the Haotian; the Queen Mother of the West merely holds power on his behalf.

"I hope so!"

Cihang said that the Queen Mother of the West was not unaware of this, but ultimately could not rest easy.

"Fellow Daoist Cihang, if I remember correctly, you also possess the divine position of the Great Emperor Ziwei."

"I wonder if you would be willing to assume the throne of the Great Emperor and reside in the Heavenly Court!"

With a change in tone, the Queen Mother of the West looked at Cihang expectantly.

If Cihang joins the Heavenly Court, her pressure will be greatly reduced.

She knew that the saints were extremely wary of Cihang.

"I'm afraid I'll have to disappoint you, fellow Daoist. I have other plans for the position of the Great Emperor Ziwei."

It is not yet time for the Great Emperor Ziwei to return to his throne!

Cihang softly refused the Queen Mother of the West.

Although he did not give up on developing his career in Heavenly Court, he did not attach too much importance to it either.

He would never personally enter the Heavenly Court, even if he were merely an avatar.

"I'm sorry, I insisted!"

Upon hearing this, the Queen Mother of the West said nothing more.

She was just being overly concerned. With Cihang's strength and achievements, how could she possibly care about the position of a Great Emperor in the Heavenly Court?

For other cultivators, this was an opportunity, but for Cihang, it was a constraint.

"Fellow Daoist, there's no need for such formalities. If you ever encounter any difficulties in the future, you are welcome to come to Mount Luojia to find me. Cihang will certainly do his utmost to help you!"

Unlike Haotian, Cihang had a good relationship with the Queen Mother of the West.

If there is a real need, he will not completely ignore it.

"Thank you, fellow Daoist. With your words of comfort, I am relieved!"

The Queen Mother of the West smiled and thanked Cihang.

In fact, Cihang to stay alone in the Heavenly Court this time already showed her support for him in front of many powerful figures.

She was too hasty before.

"Now that you have just assumed power, you must have many things to arrange, Cihang will not disturb you any longer!"

Seeing that the Queen Mother of the West had regained her former composure, Cihang took her leave.

Thanks to Cihang's silent support, the Heavenly Court successfully navigated the change of power.

Of course, this is also due to the fact that the Queen Mother of the West herself possessed extraordinary power.

The Queen Mother of the West was already stronger than Haotian.

Apart from the saints, no one really dared to ignore its existence.

Even the Sanqing would give the Queen Mother of the West some face.

Therefore, the world did not change much due to Haotian's tribulations and reincarnations.

Only the Dragon Clan live in constant fear and anxiety.

They originally thought that the appearance of Candle Dragon would change their predicament.

Unexpectedly, their predicament not only remained unchanged, but even led them to a dead end.

With the current strength of the Dragon Clan, they are no match for the Heavenly Court.

Once the Heavenly Court retaliates, only destruction awaits them.

However, their fears never materialized.

The Queen Mother of the West did not take action against the Dragon Clan.

Although she and Haotian were the Heavenly Emperor Heavenly Empress, their relationship was not as close as people expected.

Haotian's vigilance towards the Queen Mother of the West was no less than that of the Sanqing Ones.

After all, the Queen Mother of the West was far more powerful than him, and he was afraid that Queen Mother of the West would compete with him for control of the Heavenly Court.

Haotian also wanted to emulate Di Jun by marrying the Queen Mother of the West, so that their destinies would be completely intertwined.

However, the Queen Mother of the West firmly refused.

As a result, the relationship between the two became increasingly distant.

Under such circumstances, the Queen Mother of the West would naturally not seek revenge for Haotian.

Moreover, this is the Karma of Haotian, and he should settle it himself.

The Dragon Clan is far more complex than it appears on the surface.

Candle Dragon dared to kill the Heavenly Emperor; who dares to say that the Dragon Clan has no other powerful figures or resources?
