This is promising!

The Jade Emperor was ecstatic beyond words.

There were two conditions for the Primordial Era World to advance its status.

The first condition didn't necessarily have to be completed first.

It was possible to achieve the second condition first and then fulfill the first one!

And the second condition, which was originally out of reach and impossible to achieve, was now possible!

Didn't you see? Old Ancestor Qilin, that old black dog, became a Primordial Chaos Grand Unity Golden Immortal just by eating Zhang Yifan's leftovers.

So, as long as he came for meals every day, he could become a Primordial Chaos Grand Unity Golden Immortal, right?

As long as he continued to cultivate, he would definitely be able to become a Primordial Chaos Grand Unity Golden Immortal of the Heavenly Dao Realm!

He definitely could!

The Jade Emperor was very certain!

"Well, the immediate priority is to put a stop to the Journey to the West. Then, I'll select some trusted confidants and loyal subjects to come and have meals."

The Jade Emperor made up his mind.

"Taibai, let's go. Prepare the imperial carriage back to the Heavenly Court." The Jade Emperor flicked his sleeve and strode out of the courtyard, feeling refreshed.

"Yes, Your Majesty."

Riding on auspicious clouds, Taibai Jinxing suddenly knelt before the Jade Emperor on the cloud, his forehead touching the Jade Emperor's shoes.

"What is it, Taibai?" The Jade Emperor's face was majestic, exuding an immeasurable imperial aura.

"Your Majesty, I, Taibai Jinxing, will forever be Your Majesty's most loyal and trustworthy dog. I beg Your Majesty to grant me this opportunity, to allow me to serve Your Majesty forever and go through fire and water for Your Majesty."

Primordial Chaos Grand Unity Golden Immortal!

Primordial advancement.

High-end supreme Primordial Era World.

Great Dao Saint!

Taibai Jinxing was not stupid at all. Such a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity was right before him, and he didn't want to miss it!

By staying by the Jade Emperor's side, he would have infinite opportunities!

"Taibai, what are you talking about? Haven't I always trusted you? That's why I keep you by my side." The Jade Emperor's words were light. How could he not know Taibai Jinxing's thoughts?

"I, Taibai Jinxing, swear by my Dao heart to be loyal to His Majesty the Jade Emperor until death. If I have any thought of defiance or rebellion, I shall immediately die a violent death."

Knowing that there was a chance, Taibai Jinxing immediately expressed his loyalty again.

"Indeed, there will be a position for you among the Great Dao Saints."

The Jade Emperor nodded, appearing like the Heavenly Emperor of a high-end Primordial Era World. He was quite satisfied with Taibai Jinxing's performance.

"Thank you, Jade Emperor! No, thank you, Heavenly Emperor!" Taibai Jinxing was overjoyed!

Even if he were to be a dog, wouldn't it be great to be a dog at the Great Dao Saint realm?

It was wonderful!

Taibai Jinxing's eyebrows curved with happiness.

The Jade Emperor laughed heartily. He felt great, incredibly great! This was exactly the feeling of controlling everyone's destiny!

Heavenly Court.

After returning, the Jade Emperor went to see Queen Mother.

Although Queen Mother appeared to be in her middle age, her charm was still undiminished, and her demeanor was extraordinary, befitting a queen.

Seeing the Jade Emperor arrive with such ease and joy, Queen Mother asked with a smile, "Your Majesty's face is beaming. Surely there is some good news?"

"Great news!" The Jade Emperor chuckled, completely shedding his majestic demeanor as the ruler of the Three Realms in the Lingxiao Palace.

"Oh, what great news? Could it be that the Western Teachings have conceded to Your Majesty and promised many benefits?"

"Hmph, don't mention those scoundrels from the Western Teachings. Just hearing about them makes me angry." The Jade Emperor disdained the Western Teachings.

"Then has the clone of the Grand Pure Saint, Grand Supreme Elder Laozi, ceded some of his power to you?" Queen Mother asked again.

"Oh, my Queen Mother, you're bringing up a sore subject. Would that old fellow Grand Supreme Elder Laozi give up the influence of the Human Teachings and Daoist Teachings and return the power of the Heavenly Court?" The Jade Emperor was exasperated.

"Then what other great news is there?" Queen Mother was dumbfounded.

"Heaven-shattering good news." The Jade Emperor swept away his displeasure, his face beaming again.

"Quick, tell me."

"I found you a father!" the Jade Emperor said with a grin.

"What?" Queen Mother was stunned.

"I said, I found you a father. We have a father now," the Jade Emperor said earnestly.

"A father? We have a father?" Queen Mother looked at the Jade Emperor as if he were a lunatic. What kind of joke was this?

"That's right. Exactly, we have a dad now!" The Jade Emperor nodded, very seriously.

"I understand that the affairs of the Three Realms have been troubling you, but you can't make fun of me like this!" The Queen Mother sighed and shook her head. This Jade Emperor was truly going mad from the schemes and calculations of the Three Realms.

"When have I ever lied to you! I, the Jade Emperor, really have a dad! And you, Queen Mother, also have a father-in-law!"

Seeing the Queen Mother's disbelief, the Jade Emperor grew anxious.

"You're serious?" The Queen Mother was greatly surprised.

She had initially thought the Jade Emperor was just joking, but seeing his earnest and anxious expression, it didn't seem fake at all!

"Of course, it's true. How could it be fake? If you don't believe me, go ask Taibai Jinxing," the Jade Emperor said, extremely pleased.

"Forget it, I believe you." The Queen Mother's face was full of suspicion, her mind filled with questions, but she still chose to believe the Jade Emperor. After all, they had supported each other for countless years, weathered storms together, and the Jade Emperor had never deceived her.

"I'm just curious, how did you get a dad?" the Queen Mother asked curiously.

"It's like this."

So, the Jade Emperor recounted the entire story to the Queen Mother, from beginning to end.

"Just like that?"

"Just like that!" The Jade Emperor nodded.

"Then you really acknowledged him as your father?" the Queen Mother asked with a chuckle.

"I didn't intend to, but what happened afterward made me feel that acknowledging this father was incredibly worthwhile!"

The Jade Emperor naturally knew what the Queen Mother was thinking.

He then set up a grand formation to isolate the inside from the outside, and proceeded to tell the Queen Mother about the Big Black Dog, the Old Ancestor Qilin, the meal containing fragments of Great Dao Laws, the matter of the Primordial Era World's advancement in status, the Primordial Chaos Grand Unity Golden Immortal, and the Great Dao Saints.

Hiss!

Hiss!

Gulp!

Gulp!

Listening to these various secret matters, the Queen Mother continuously gasped and swallowed, her shock so profound that she could no longer stand and slumped onto her phoenix throne.

After hearing the Jade Emperor's account, the Queen Mother's shocked and excited heart could not calm down for a long time.

After a considerable period, the Queen Mother finally managed to compose herself.

"Your Majesty, we must acknowledge this father! He is our biological father! Even more so than a biological father!" the Queen Mother declared resolutely!

This father must be our father!

No one can take him away!

"He is already our biological father!" the Jade Emperor said with a smile.

"Hehe, Jade Emperor, you truly have great fortune. To acknowledge a hidden powerful being, like a Great Dao Saint, as your father after descending to the mortal realm." The Queen Mother was very happy. If the Primordial Era World truly succeeded in its advancement, then she, the Queen Mother, would be the empress of the world, wouldn't she hold dominion over all heavens?

"It's our great fortune!"

"Hahahaha!"

The Jade Emperor and the Queen Mother looked at each other and burst into laughter.

"The urgent matter is to halt the Journey to the West for now," the Queen Mother said.

"Yes, I've already made arrangements. Tang Sanzang and his party have just reached Lion Camel Ridge, so let's hold them up there for now," the Jade Emperor replied.

The Queen Mother nodded, then asked with a smile of eagerness, "Then when can we go meet our father? I'm already a bit impatient."

"No rush. I've already spoken with Father, and he wants you and our daughters to come along. So, you should first call back our seven daughters, make arrangements, and then we can quietly descend to the mortal realm together."

"Alright! I'll go make the arrangements now."

The Queen Mother nodded in agreement, her heart filled with anticipation for this father who had appeared out of nowhere.

She imagined, what kind of existence could this father be?

Would he be easy to get along with?
