Ancestor Yang Mei Appears!
Just then, Bai Chen cast a dissenting vote for himself.
Bai Chen truly didn't want to be the Heavenly Emperor. He, the Great God Bai Chen, was born to enjoy a life of luxury; how could he possibly work for saints?
And what's the deal with the office being Heavenly Court?
These saints may not have known.
Great God Bai Chen, Taiqing, after all, it was he who ordered people to clean up the battlefield.
When cleaning up the battlefield, Bai Chen thought that Haotian would take over in the future, so he Ji Meng and the others to empty the Heavenly Court, taking away even the floor tiles that could be pried off.
Everything that couldn't be moved was destroyed, even the protective barriers of the South Heaven Gate were erased.
The Heavenly Court of today is, to put it nicely, the ruins of the Heavenly Palace; to put it bluntly, it's a rubble in the heavens.
Bai Chen felt that if he were to become the Heavenly Emperor, he would have to pay out of his own pocket to rebuild the Heavenly Court.
Working for saints and having to pay for the renovation of their offices out of your own pocket—how unfair is that?
"You have to be Bad Cat!"
Nuwa glared at the cat Nuwa saw that Bai Chen didn't want to be the Heavenly Emperor.
I'm helping this cat fight for the throne of the Heavenly Emperor, and the cat doesn't even want it. This cat is truly rebellious.
"Yes, Little White, you have to be one!"
Houtu believed that Bai Chen was the best candidate to become the Heavenly Emperor. If Bai Chen became the Heavenly Emperor, the Witch Clan could also gain some benefits.
"Bad Cat, I know you're lazy. If all else fails, you can leave a clone in Heavenly Court. I'll arrange for people to manage Heavenly Court for you."
Nuwa knew that the main reason Bai Chen didn't want to be the Heavenly Emperor was because this cat was incredibly lazy and didn't want to work.
Bai Chen wanted to retort, but Nuwa took out a spiritual fruit and stuffed it into Bai Chen's mouth, silencing him.
Dao Ancestor Hongjun saw that Nuwa and Houtu both recommended Bai Chen to Heavenly Emperor, he frowned, because the situation was beyond his expectations!
"Houtu Fellow Daoist Nuwa, I also have candidates in mind for managing the Heavenly Court: my three attendants, Haotian, Yaochi, and Yaoji."
Dao Ancestor Hongjun gave a wry smile and revealed his recommended candidate.
Nuwa, seeing that Dao Ancestor Hongjun had a recommended candidate, smiled and said:
"I think it would be better for those who want to compete for the position of Heavenly Emperor Heavenly Emperor have a fair competition rather than have us decide the outcome all by ourselves!"
Nuwa believed herself to be quite reasonable, and that a competition and exchange of skills would be much fairer and more just!
If Haotian and his friends can defeat their own Bad Cat, they'll accept it.
Houtu chuckled, indicating that she seconded the motion:
"I think Nuwa's suggestion is good!"
"Let Haotian and Little White fight. Whoever wins becomes the Heavenly Emperor. That would be fair and just!"
It wasn't that Houtu looked down on Haotian and the other juniors; it was that even the Innate Great God were unwilling to fight Bai Chen.
There are three reasons. First, Bai Chen's power of laws is formidable, especially the Time Laws.
Secondly, Bai Chen's spiritual treasures are powerful; thirdly, Bai Chen has accumulated a lot of merit, which allows him to increase his cultivation level at any time.
Houtu and Nuwa were determined to elevate Bai Chen, Dao Ancestor Hongjun had no choice but to say:
"Houtu Daoists Fellow Daoist Nuwa, since you insist on recommending Bai Chen as the Heavenly Emperor, and I support Haotian, why not divide the Heavenly Court in two?"
"The Three Realms and Twenty-Eight Heavens were divided among the Haotian, Four Brahma Heavens were given to the Bai Chen. The Heavenly Court's Fortune divided in two, with each side receiving half."
As for managing all living beings in the Primordial World, Bai Chen is busy cultivating, so he'll let Haotian take on more of the responsibility.
Dao Ancestor Hongjun did not want to break ties with Houtu and Nuwa, so he chose to back down.
"Can!"
Nuwa and Houtu nodded in agreement. Although only four of the thirty-two heavens were given to Bai Chen Bai Chen, they were the best Four Brahma Heavens among the thirty-two heavens.
Moreover, the Merit and Fortune of the Heavenly Court are also split equally between the two sides.
Moreover, Bai Chen is the kind of person who only needs to take benefits and doesn't have to do any work or manage anything.
"I never intended to Heavenly Emperor, so how did I inexplicably become Heavenly Emperor?!"
Bai Chen shrugged helplessly; this Heavenly Emperor was not the position it had always wanted.
The Dao Ancestor Hongjun, Houtu, Nuwa have all finalized this matter, so even if other sages have objections, they cannot object.
"Although the positions of the Heavenly Emperor have been agreed upon, there is still one more thing I must tell you."
"Now the human race is the protagonist of heaven and earth, but the human race is weak. Therefore, according to the Great Dao's Destiny, ten human races will be born, including the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors and Five Bingzhu Shi Huang, to educate and enlighten the human race."
The Dao Ancestor Hongjun explained the matter of the ten positions held by the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors, the Historical Emperor and Weapon Master.
Humanity became the protagonist of heaven and earth. When humanity reaches its peak of prosperity, if a member of humanity can grasp the entire destiny of humanity, they can attain sainthood.
Now, the Great Dao's Destiny the ten positions of the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors, Five Emperors, Bingzhu Shi Huang, in order to dismantle the Saint position of the human race, the protagonist of heaven and earth, so that the human race can no longer rely on the fortune of the protagonist of heaven and earth to give birth to saints.
The saints breathed a sigh of relief when they understood this matter. They had previously been afraid that as the human race became the main force in the world, some members of the human race would become saints and compete with them for territory.
Now that the saintly status of the human race has been split into ten human statuses, including the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors and Five Emperors, the Bingzhu Shi Huang, they are at ease, as no one is competing with them for territory.
Compared to the relaxed attitudes of other saints, Nuwa wasn't worried about any human becoming saints and trying to seize her territory.
Ever since Nuwa saw that Bai Chen's Kongtong Seal could mobilize the human race's fortune, she knew that it was virtually impossible for any human, the protagonist of heaven and earth, to attain sainthood by relying on the fortune of the protagonist of heaven and earth.
Unless the human race can snatch the Kongtong Seal back from Bai Chen, the fate of the human race will remain in the hands of this cat.
Nuwa now strongly suspects that the ten human positions mentioned by Dao Ancestor Hongjun —the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors and Five Emperors, the Bingzhu Shi Huang— are related to the Kongtong Seal in the hands of the Bad Cat.
After regaining his senses, Taiqing Laozi turned to Dao Ancestor Hongjun and asked:
"Master Hongjun, who can be considered the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors, Bingzhu Shi Huang?"
Taiqing Laozi had already realized that there was profit to be made in the human race's positions, so he wanted to seize the opportunity.
Upon hearing this, Dao Ancestor Hongjun pointed at Bai Chen and laughed:
"You still need to discuss this matter with Bai Chen!"
That's right, Dao Ancestor Hongjun already knew that the Kongtong Seal was on Bai Chen.
"???"
When Dao Ancestor Hongjun uttered these words, the Three Pure Ones, Houtu, Jieyin and Zhunti were all extremely shocked.
Only Nuwa remained exceptionally calm, realizing she had indeed guessed correctly: the ten human beings holding high positions were related to the Kongtong Seal in the hands of the Bad Cat.
Before the other sages could react, Dao Ancestor Hongjun spoke to Bai Chen:
"Bai Chen, I'm going to shamelessly ask you for a Human Race position today, to give the Human Race Earth Emperor position to Hong Yun. What do you think?"
Dao Ancestor Hongjun once tricked Hongyun because he suspected that Hong Yun had a relationship with the great god Pangu.
Dao Ancestor Hongjun felt that he had acted somewhat unethically in this matter.
Even though Dao Ancestor Hongjun saved Hong Yun's life when he self-destructed, he still felt indebted to Hong Yun and wanted to make amends to Hong Yun, while also washing away his own stain from back then.
"You flatter me, Dao Ancestor!"
Bai Chen bowed to Dao Ancestor Hongjun. Even if Dao Ancestor Hongjun didn't speak, he would still give the position of Earthly Emperor of the Human Race to Hong Yun.
When Bai Chen used Hong Yun to self-destruct, he schemed against many Innate Great God and reaped great rewards. He then promised to compensate Hong Yun, and now it's time to fulfill that promise.
Of course, now that the Kongtong Seal is in the hands of the Great God Bai Chen, Hong Yun no longer has to be the unlucky one and go to jail with that monster.
Chapter 504 Ancestor Yang Mei Appears!
Dao Ancestor Hongjun was very satisfied with Bai Chen's attitude. He estimated that if the Kongtong Seal were in the hands of some rebellious disciples, Jidu wouldn't even respect him as their teacher.
Taiqing Laozi: Master Hongjun, I feel like you're targeting me!
"Since that's the case, today's meeting is about time. After dealing with the matters of the Heavenly Court, let's arrange for the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors of the Human Race, and the Bingzhu Shi Huang to rule the world as soon as possible!"
After the Dao Ancestor Hongjun finished speaking, he gestured for everyone to return to their respective homes.
After Dao Ancestor Hongjun announced the end of the meeting, Nuwa immediately took Bai Chen and left, with Houtu quickly following behind.
Just as the Three Pure Ones, Jieyin and Zhunti were about to leave, Dao Ancestor Hongjun suddenly remembered something and called out to Yuanshi Tianzun and Sect Master Tongtian:
"Yuqing Yuanshi and my disciple Tongtian, you two stay here."
"I will obey Master Hongjun's Imperial Decree!"
After bowing to each other, Yuanshi Tianzun and Sect Master Tongtian obediently stayed behind.
When Taiqing Laozi saw that his two younger brothers had stayed, he also wanted to stay, but Dao Ancestor Hongjun did not allow him to stay!
Outside the Purple Cloud Palace, Jieyin and Zhunti saw that only Taiqing Three Pure Ones Laozi Ones, so they approached him.
"Senior Brother Taiqing, do you think Master Hongjun's decision to leave Yuanshi Brother Yuanshi and Senior Brother Tongtian behind is to grant them some kind of good fortune?"
Zhunti's words were just meant to stir up trouble; he was purely there to anger Taiqing Laozi.
Previously, only the three disciples envied the Three Pure Ones, who were Direct Disciple of the Dao Ancestor Hongjun. Now, even the Direct Disciple Laozi Taiqing Laozi has fallen to the same level of treatment as his two outer disciples.
Thinking Zhunti this, Zhunti felt much better.
Taiqing Laozi, suppressing his anger, Zhunti:
"Zhunti, stop stirring up trouble and trying to sow discord among us brothers in the Three Pure Ones."
In fact, Taiqing knew that Dao Laozi Dao Ancestor Hongjun leaving his two younger brothers behind must mean something good.
After all, leaving Yuanshi Tianzun alone might not be a good thing, but having Sect Master Tongtian would definitely be a good thing.
"Senior Brother Taiqing, I was wrong. I underestimated the friendship among the Three Pure Ones."
Zhunti appeared to be admitting his mistake, but his words were full of sarcasm.
Regarding the friendship between the Three Pure Ones mentioned Laozi Taiqing, Zhunti could only chuckle inwardly!
If the bond between the Three Pure Ones Three Pure Ones was truly unbreakable, would they have split up over such a trivial matter?
Keep spouting tales of friendship with the Three Pure Ones; you can fool outsiders, but don't fool yourself.
