Bai Chen Compiles the Heavenly Laws!
After the Queen Mother of the West left, Donghua advised Haotian:
"Fellow Daoist Haotian, during this period, the human race has been the protagonist of the world, and everyone is taking advantage of the human race."
If we keep a low profile, Bai Chen won't cause us any trouble.
Donghua, whether intentionally or unintentionally, mentioned that the human race was the protagonist of heaven and earth.
Upon hearing this, Haotian had a flash of inspiration and a plan formed in his mind.
He then bowed to Donghua and said:
"Donghua, I am going to the Purple Cloud Palace. I would appreciate it if you could keep an eye on things in Heavenly Court."
After Haotian finished speaking, he immediately fled towards the Purple Cloud Palace.
Looking in the direction Haotian had fled, Donghua felt a pang of sadness, as if he had let Haotian down.
Donghua understood Haotian's temperament, so he brought up those matters to get Haotian to cause some trouble and attract Bai Chen's attention.
Donghua felt he had no other choice, after all, Bai Chen was too vengeful and could take revenge on the Queen Mother of the West at any time.
Chapter 540 Bai Chen Compiles Heavenly Laws!
The composed Donghua also knew that Bai Chen's strength was terrifying. If Bai Chen were to take revenge on the Queen Mother of the West the Queen Mother of the West, she would definitely not be able to withstand it.
Therefore, in order to protect the Queen Mother of the West, Donghua could only make limited use of Haotian.
Donghua believed that even if Bai Chen eventually came to cause trouble for Haotian, Bai Chen would not kill Haotian out of respect for Dao Ancestor Hongjun.
Haotian: Donghua, you dog! I treated you as a friend, and you actually stabbed me in the back for a woman! You schemed against me!
Purple Cloud Palace...
"Haotian greets the Dao Ancestor!"
When Haotian arrived at the Purple Cloud Palace and met Dao Ancestor Hongjun, he quickly bowed and paid his respects.
"Lord Dao Ancestor, your disciple hereby obeys your Imperial Decree to reopen the Heavenly Court and govern the Primordial World."
Humanity is now the dominant force in the world, and this disciple wishes to share the burdens of the Dao Ancestor and manage humanity."
Haotian was really too greedy for the human race. Because of Queen Mother of the West's previous mockery, he also realized some realities, namely that his cultivation was not yet enough to convince the Innate Great God.
Humanity is now the dominant force in the universe. If I can gain some benefits from them, it might be possible for Haotian to rise to power.
Dao Ancestor Hongjun shook his head and said helplessly:
"Haotian, the affairs of the human race are not for you to interfere with. If you forcibly intervene, you will only bring trouble upon yourself."
Dao Ancestor Hongjun couldn't understand where Haotian got the audacity to plot against the human race. The current human race were not saints, and whoever interfered would be inviting the wrath of the other saints!
To put it bluntly, even if he agreed to let Haotian govern the human race, could Haotian control them without the Kongtong Seal?
Houtu Earthly Dao Spokesperson, and Nuwa, the Human Dao Spokesperson, would surely overturn the table, Three Pure Ones, Jieyin and Zhunti would certainly be dissatisfied.
"Haotian, your position as the Jade Emperor has already caused some dissatisfaction among Houtu, Nuwa, and other saints. You should go back and cultivate diligently, and avoid causing trouble."
After finishing speaking, Dao Ancestor Hongjun waved his Daoist robe and threw Haotian out of the Great Luo Heaven, giving him no chance to cry pitifully.
Above the Feng Clan Tribe, in Nuwa's temporary Temporary Palace, Bai Chen was watching the light screen.
Through the light screen, it saw the Queen Mother of the West going to the Heavenly Court, what happened with Haotian and Donghua, and Haotian going to the Purple Cloud Palace.
It could be said that, apart from the conversation between Haotian and Dao Ancestor Hongjun in the Purple Cloud Palace, it saw everything through the light screen.
This light screen wasn't created by Bai Chen, but by Nuwa.
Nuwa created this light screen for Bai Chen for a purpose somewhat similar to Donghua's.
Donghua wanted to use Haotian to distract Bai Chen and protect the Queen Mother of the West.
Nuwa created this light screen for Bai Chen to see in order to use Donghua and Haotian to distract Bai Chen and prevent the cat from causing trouble for Fuxi.
It has to be said that Nuwa's move was very successful; Bai Chen, watching the light screen, was furious.
"That bastard Haotian, he still wants to mess with the human race, doesn't he?"
"And Donghua, he's trying to cause trouble, isn't he!"
"If you dare to cause trouble for this great master, don't blame me."
Bai Chen was furious. He hadn't gone looking for trouble, and they didn't even appreciate it.
Now they're so ungrateful, plotting against the human race and provoking the Great God Bai Chen. Are they tired of living?
Bai Chen acted immediately, starting to prepare to dispose of Haotian and the others' tools.
Nuwa watched Bai Chen fiddling with something, a smile appearing on her lips.
Although she didn't know exactly what the cat was doing, she knew that the cat's focus had shifted to Haotian and the others.
Nuwa knew that Haotian was being targeted by Bai Chen, and even if he didn't die, he would be severely injured. Therefore, she could only mourn for Haotian and the others.
Donghua and Haotian: Nuwa, you have harmed us like this; you are unworthy of being Human Dao Spokesperson.
Bai Chen tinkered for an unknown amount of time before finally creating a tool to deal with Haotian and his group.
Bai Chen's prop is no ordinary prop; it embodies righteousness, making it impossible for Dao Ancestor Hongjun to protect Haotian.
Bai Chen approached Nuwa, poked her with his little paw, and said:
"Nuwa, this great goddess believes that since the Heavenly Court is there to help the sages manage all living beings in the Primordial World..."
But if you want to manage all living beings in the Primordial World, you must first restrain the Heavenly Court.
Before Bai Chen could finish his prepared remarks, Nuwa grabbed his chubby cheeks and said in an annoyed tone:
"Bad Cat, there are no outsiders here, so don't beat around the bush."
Nuwa was speechless at Bai Chen. It was just the two of them; what was this cat pretending for?
Who are these righteous and awe-inspiring words meant for?
"Nuwa, this great goddess wishes to establish Heavenly Rules and Immortal Laws to restrain the people of Heavenly Court, thereby enabling Heavenly Court to better govern all living beings in the Primordial World world."
Bai Chen revealed his intentions; indeed, the tool he used to deal with Haotian and Donghua was the Heavenly Rules and Immortal Laws.
Bai Chen: Haotian, Donghua, when this great god brings out the Heavenly Rules and Immortal Laws, what will you use to deal with it?
"Bad Cat, in my opinion, you don't want to restrain the people of Heavenly Court, but rather Haotian and his ilk."
Nuwa had known Bai Chen Bai Chen for far too long and saw right through his little scheme.
"Nuwa, are you implying that I, this great goddess, am deliberately targeting them?"
Bai Chen said irritably, "I, the Great God Bai Chen, created the Heavenly Rules and Immortal Laws for the sake of the Heavenly Court and all living beings in the Primordial World."
"Nuwa, this is a set of Heavenly Rules and Immortal Laws compiled by a great deity. Please sign it!"
Bai Chen handed the Heavenly Rules and Immortal Laws he had compiled to Nuwa, indicating that she Human Dao Spokesperson, should sign and approve them.
Once Nuwa, Human Dao Spokesperson, signs off, these Heavenly Rules and Immortal Laws will take effect.
Nuwa opened the Heavenly Rules and Immortal Laws that Bai Chen handed her and, after seeing the first one, was utterly speechless. She said in an annoyed tone:
"Bad Cat, you're not even going to act anymore, are you?"
The first rule of the Heavenly Rules and Immortal Laws, compiled by Bai Chen, roughly means that everyone in the Heavenly Court must abide by it, including the Heavenly Emperor, the Jade Emperor, the Yaochi Golden Mother, and the goddesses of the Desire Realm.
However, there is a reversal in this rule: because Innate Great God possess innate merit, they are given preferential treatment and are not bound by Heavenly Rules and Immortal Laws.
Nuwa felt that the first Heavenly Rules and Immortal Laws, when translated, was:
Although Bai Chen is the Heavenly Emperor, he should treat everyone equally before the Heavenly Rules and Immortal Laws.
However, Bai Chen is one of the Innate Great God, so he enjoys special privileges and is therefore not bound by Heavenly Rules and Immortal Laws.
Bai Chen played with his own hands, and said quite confidently:
"I am Innate Great God, so what's wrong with enjoying a few privileges?"
Bai Chen wrote these Heavenly Rules and Immortal Laws to restrain Haotian and the others, not to restrain himself.
If you were to use your own self-created Heavenly Rules and Immortal Laws to constrain yourself, wouldn't you be a complete fool?
Nuwa thought Bai Chen was playing dirty tricks. In order to deal with Haotian and Donghua, he actually created a set of Heavenly Rules and Immortal Laws, which numbered tens of thousands of articles, many of which could be described as inhumane.
For example, those in Heavenly Court are forbidden from falling in love or getting married!
The cat's description even goes so far as to say, "The gods and immortals of Heavenly Court are moved by love, and the Primordial World!"
Violating these Heavenly Rules and Immortal Laws is severely punished, ranging from being imprisoned in the Milky Way and the Weak Water to having one's heart pierced by a flying sword and one's immortal bones dug out.
Nuwa looked at the Heavenly Rules and Immortal Laws and Heavenly Rules and Immortal Laws compiled by Bai Chen, and in some inconspicuous place, she found a very interesting one.
Nuwa pointed to this Heavenly Rules and Immortal Laws and said to Bai Chen in a sarcastic tone:
"You Bad Cat, that hidden Heavenly Rules and Immortal Laws —that you have the right to interpret everything—is practically a death sentence!"
Nuwa felt that the one thing Bai Chen was hiding was truly sinister!
"Nuwa, I'm writing this down to avoid any future disputes with me regarding the Heavenly Rules and Immortal Laws."
Bai Chen explained that he simply didn't want others to manipulate or distort the Heavenly Rules and Immortal Laws and Heavenly Rules and Immortal Laws.
"Hehehe!"
Nuwa sneered; she guessed that the final interpretation of this cat's story rested with the Heaven Measuring Ruler.
If anyone dares to question the Heavenly Rules and Immortal Laws, this cat will surely swat them with its Heaven Measuring Ruler.
Since these Heavenly Rules and Immortal Laws had little impact on Nuwa, Nuwa the Human Dao Spokesperson, ultimately agreed to Bai Chen's outrageous Heavenly Rules and Immortal Laws.
"Bad Cat, you can take your Heavenly Rules and Immortal Laws and get out of here now!"
Nuwa approved Bai Chen's Heavenly Rules and Immortal Laws, then waved her sleeve, signaling Bai Chen to get lost and go find trouble with Haotian and Donghua.
"Snort!"
Bai Chen snorted coldly, "Fine, I'll get lost then."
