Within Yaochi, the air seemed to be solid.
Chan Teachings, Interception Sect, Western Teachings disciples glared at each other, their swords were at war, and majestic mana fluctuations faintly stirred in the table, causing the clothes of some of the weaker cultivators to flutter in disorder, with panic on their faces.
The celestial fruits and nectar have lost their flavor, and the celestial music has no one to listen to its wonderful sounds.
All eyes, bright or dark, were cast on Haotian Shangdi and Jade Pool Golden Mother on the throne.
In his eyes, there was joking, sympathy for his situation, and even cold scrutiny.
How to deal with the dispute between the saint's disciples is the first test of the new emperor's ability and authority.
Haotian's face was ashen, and Yaochi's hands in his sleeves were slightly clenched.
Rebuke? They dare not, and it may not be useful.
Appeasement? No matter which side you lean towards, you will completely offend the other two parties, and even cause dissatisfaction from the saint behind it.
Only at this moment did they truly realize that without the support of the saints and without the foundation of their own strong strength, the position of the Emperor of Heaven would be empty and untenable.
Guang Chengzi There was a faint sneer at the corner of his mouth, Immortal Official Nanji lowered his eyes and said nothing.
Daoist Duobao's face is calm, Golden Spirit Holy Mother's eyes are sharp.
Western Teachings disciples use their eyes to observe their noses, and their noses to observe their hearts, as if the matter has nothing to do with them, but in fact they are observing secretly.
At the moment when Haotian's thoughts were racing, but there was no good solution, and the situation was about to get out of control--
"Buzz..."
A great harmonious cry came from the depths of the endless void, clearly ringing in the hearts of every immortal god.
Immediately afterwards, above Thirty-Three Heavens, endless purple energy rushed from the depths of chaos like a mighty river, stretching for thirty thousand miles, reflecting the entire Heavenly Court in a noble and auspicious way!
In the void, countless golden lotuses emerged out of thin air and bloomed leisurely; flowers were falling from the sky, exuding the refreshing fragrance of Dao Charm!
The strange fragrance hits your nose, the fairy sound is faint!
This is... the vision of the heaven and earth where the saint's Dharma descends!
In an instant, all the disputes and all the mana fluctuations in Yaochi were calmed down.
Whether it was the arrogant Guang Chengzi, the angry Immortal Jinguang, or the coldly watching Zhenyuanzi, everyone stood up involuntarily, with a look of awe on their faces, and bowed in the direction of the source of the purple energy.
"Welcome to the saint Dharma!"
The sound waves converged, and there was no more noise.
Haotian and Yaochi were stunned for a moment, and then their eyes burst into incredible surprise!
They never expected that a saint would actually visit Flat Peach Banquet!
For them, a brief introduction is a timely help and a great honor!
The two of them did not dare to show any signs of neglect. They immediately arranged their appearance, quickly walked down from the throne, and personally greeted Yaochi outside the Immortal Palace.
I saw two figures walking leisurely among the purple golden lotus that filled the sky.
The one in front is dressed in palace attire and has a peerless appearance. The whole body is shrouded in the hazy clear light of creation, as if the spirit of heaven and earth are combined into one body. It is Holy Mother of the Human Race, Primordial Daluo Golden Immortal, Lord of Humanity--Empress Nuwa!
Walking side by side with her was a green-robed Daoist with a handsome face, aloof temperament, a faint smile on his lips, and eyes as deep as the sea of stars. He was Immortal Venerable Qing Xuan who had a close relationship with Empress Nuwa, was also Primordial Daluo Golden Immortal, Human Dao Guardian, and whose Daoism was unfathomable!
"It's actually Empress Nuwa and Immortal Venerable Qing Xuan who are here in person!"
The hearts of all the immortals below were shocked.
Empress Nuwa is aloof and rarely attends such gatherings. It is really beyond everyone's expectation that he came here today.
Haotian and Yaochi quickly stepped forward and bowed deeply.
"I didn't know that when the empress and the immortal dharma arrived, I missed the reception from afar. I hope you will forgive me!"
Nuwa nodded slightly, his voice becoming clearer and calmer.
"Emperor of Heaven, Queen Mother does not need to be polite. The re-establishment of Heavenly Court was ordered by Dao Ancestor to maintain the order of Primordial World. It is also a grand event to hold Peach Banquet. Qingxuan and I happened to be meeting at the same time and came here to watch the ceremony."
Qingxuan also smiled.
"Emperor Heaven, Queen Mother, you're welcome. This Heavenly Court and I, Creation Heaven, are neighbors, so we should come to congratulate you."
His words not only pointed out the origin, but also gave Haotian Yaochi enough face. A warm current surged through their hearts, almost bringing tears to their eyes.
This call is tantamount to the strongest support in this embarrassing situation.
"It is Heavenly Court a great honor for the empress and the immortal to come. Please come in and take a seat!"
Haotian quickly turned sideways to lead the way.
Nuwa and Qingxuan, accompanied by Haotian Yaochi, slowly walked into Yaochi.
As soon as he entered Yaochi, Empress Nuwa's Holy Eyes scanned slightly and took in a panoramic view of the scene. There was a hint of indifference that was not easy to detect in the originally peaceful atmosphere.
Qingxuan's eyes first fell on the seat at the top, originally reserved for saints, but now occupied by disciples Chan Teachings and Western Teachings.
When Guang Chengzi, Immortal Official Nanji, Medicine Master Liuli and others saw Empress Nuwa and Immortal Venerable Qing Xuan actually coming in, their hearts tightened, and they quickly bowed and saluted, saying:
"Meet Uncle Nuwa/Martial Uncle, meet Immortal Venerable Qing Xuan!"
However, they did not give up their seats immediately, as if they were still hesitating, or in other words, unable to save face.
Qingxuan frowned slightly, and the smile on his face faded away. His voice was not loud, but it carried an unquestionable majesty that clearly reached the ears of every immortal god.
"This is such a grand occasion for you. Are you allowed to sit in the saint's seat? Is it possible that fellow Daoist Primordial, Jieyin, and Zhunti teach you this way on weekdays, disrespecting your teachers and disrespecting the order of heaven and earth?"
Before he finished speaking, Qingxuan did not see any movement, and an invisible force that was as vast as the sky instantly enveloped that seat.
Guang Chengzi, Immortal Official Nanji, Medicine Master Liuli and other saint disciples occupying the upper seats felt their whole bodies tense up, as if they were being repulsed by the whole world. An irresistible force gently lifted them up, "please" them without any explanation, and left the high seats, and fell back to their original positions below.
The whole process is silent but as fast as lightning.
By the time everyone reacted, the seats above had been vacated, leaving only curls of purple energy and golden lotuses surrounding them.
Guang Chengzi, Immortal Official Nanji and others stood firm, their faces instantly turned red, especially Guang Chengzi, who boasted that Chan Teachings had beaten Zhong Jinxian, had he ever been humiliated like this in public?
But the one who took action was Immortal Venerable Qing Xuan, who was a contemporary of the saint and whose conduct was unfathomable. They couldn't even have the slightest thought of resistance. They could only suppress the shame and anger in their hearts, lowering their heads and not daring to speak, wishing they could find a crack in the ground to crawl in.
There was silence in Yaochi.
You can hear the needle drop.
All the immortals, including Haotian and Yaochi, held their breath.
No one expected that Qingxuan would take the initiative and be so domineering, without giving any face to Chan Teachings and Western Teachings.
But no one thought it was inappropriate for him to be overbearing.
Because of the majesty of the saint, it is inviolable.
The previous behavior of Guang Chengzi and others was an act of transgression.
Empress Nuwa seemed unaware of this, and walked directly to the vacant chief seat with Qingxuan, and sat down safely.
Haotian and Yaochi breathed a long sigh of relief, and looked at Qingxuan and Nuwa with eyes full of gratitude.
Qingxuan's wave of his hand not only relieved their encirclement, but also used the power of the saint to severely suppress those rebellious disciples of the saint and established authority for them!
"Everyone, please take a seat."
Empress Nuwa's peaceful voice sounded, breaking the silence.
"Peach Banquet, don't let trivial matters disturb your interest."
The saint spoke, and all the immortals seemed to have woken up from a dream and sat down one after another in compliance with the words.
However, after all these twists and turns, no one dared to be arrogant anymore. Even Chan and Jie Sects disciples were all honest and did not dare to say another word.
The atmosphere inside Yaochi, in a subtle awe, regained its superficial harmony.
Haotian and Yaochi looked at each other and knew that this Flat Peach Banquet could finally proceed as they expected, and they remembered the favor between Qingxuan and Nuwa.
