Bai Ze Demon Sage's Plan (Please Follow and Vote Monthly!)

Looking at the Solar God Palace great cultivators below, their faces radiant with delight, Dijun was quite satisfied with these subordinates who had submitted to him and his brother.

After all, once they established the Yao Race and opened up the Heavenly Court in the future, he would need capable wings beneath him to handle the Yao Race's and the Heavenly Court's trivial affairs.

Sweeping his gaze across the crowd, Dijun said thoughtfully, "All of you are the upper echelon of my Solar God Palace. I have gathered you here to discuss the establishment of the Yao Race and the opening of the Heavenly Court.

"Now that we have found traces of the Heavenly Realm Ruins, the final obstacle hindering our establishment of the Yao Race and opening of the Heavenly Court has been cleared away.

"If you have any suggestions, speak freely. I, Dijun, am all ears..."

The moment Dijun finished speaking, the great cultivators of the Solar God Palace within the palace began voicing their opinions one after another. Each had their own stance, and their attacks on one another were unceasing.

Broadly speaking, their views were divided into two factions. One faction, led by Demon Sages such as Jiu Ying, Gui Che, Fei Lian, and Ci Tie, believed that Dijun and Taiyi should immediately establish the Yao Race, open up the Heavenly Court, and announce it to all beings beneath heaven.

Meanwhile, Demon Sages such as Ji Meng, Shang Yang, and Ying Zhao fiercely opposed such a radical course of action. They believed that establishing the Yao Race was not a problem, but opening up the Heavenly Court required careful consideration.

After all, though Heavenly Court and Demon Court differed by only one word, they were in truth as far apart as heaven and earth. If they opened up the Heavenly Court, then all beings of the Primordial World would become subjects of the Yao Race. That would likely enrage the Primordial World's Great Divine Ability Users.

And at present, the Yao Race was still only in its infancy. They could not push all the great cultivators of the Primordial World to the side of their enemies.

"The two Emperors have obtained the Heavenly Realm Ruins and inherited the Heavenly Court orthodoxy of the World of Gods and Demons. They are favored by Heaven's Dao—why can they not open up the Heavenly Court and rule the Primordial World?"

"Not advisable. The ancient age, the World of Gods and Demons, has already passed two Dao eras ago. Even if the two Emperors have inherited the Heavenly Court orthodoxy of the World of Gods and Demons, would those Great Divine Ability Users of the Primordial World truly be willing to submit to our Yao Race?"

"That is precisely why the two Emperors should establish the Heavenly Court as soon as possible and gather fortune. With the power of fortune bolstering us, the forces of our Yao Race Heavenly Court can rapidly expand.

"By then, even those Great Divine Ability Users who hold their heads high above the clouds will have no choice but to submit to our Yao Race Heavenly Court!"

Watching the two factions assail each other, Dijun let out a cold snort, his face darkening. "Hmph, enough! Look at yourselves, attacking each other like this—what kind of spectacle is this?

"You are the elders of the Solar God Palace, and in the future, the trusted ministers of the Yao Race Heavenly Court. How can I entrust you with great responsibilities in such a state?"

After Dijun's rebuke, the palace immediately fell silent. The Solar God Palace great cultivators who had been attacking each other now watched their noses, their noses watched their hearts, sitting motionless like statues.

Having suppressed the disputes in the palace, Dijun's gaze fell upon Demon Sage Bai Ze, a glint flashing through his eyes.

Demon Sage Bai Ze was renowned for his schemes and was the sage of the Solar God Palace. Yet while everyone else had been arguing, he had not uttered a single word. Surely, he held lofty insights within his breast.

With that thought, Dijun looked at Bai Ze and said, "I wish to establish the Yao Race and open up the Heavenly Court, but the fellow Daoists of the palace cannot agree. What guidance do you have for me, Fellow Daoist Bai Ze?"

"The Emperor must already have a plan in mind. Bai Ze merely has three points to add for Your Majesty's consideration!"

Bai Ze bowed deeply, then rose and advised, "The two Emperors occupy the Heavenly Realm Ruins and have inherited the Heavenly Court orthodoxy of the World of Gods and Demons. They are favored by Heaven's Dao, so opening up the Heavenly Court is naturally the rightful orthodoxy of the Primordial World."

Upon hearing Demon Sage Bai Ze's words, the expressions of the great cultivators in the palace changed. The great cultivators from the faction led by Demon Sages Jiu Ying, Gui Che, Fei Lian, and Ci Tie naturally beamed with joy.

But before they could revel for long, Demon Sage Bai Ze's voice continued, "However, the ancient age, the World of Gods and Demons, lies two Dao eras in the past. The beings of the world have long ceased to bathe in the Heavenly Court's grace, and the Heavenly Court's prestige has long since faded.

"Thus, if you wish to open up the Heavenly Court, Your Majesties must first restore its prestige."

"Restore its prestige? Easier said than done."

Beside him, after hearing Bai Ze's words, Taiyi let out a faint sigh. Despite possessing boundless divine abilities and limitless mana, and despite always being decisive in slaughter, he could not help it now.

The Great Divine Ability Users of the Primordial World were no easy prey. How could they willingly crawl beneath the rule of the Heavenly Court?

Even if Dijun and Taiyi stood at the very pinnacle among the Great Divine Ability Users in terms of divine abilities and cultivation—even ranking among the top three or five—

there were simply too many Great Divine Ability Users in the Primordial World. Even with the Innate supreme treasure, the Chaos Bell, in his arms, Taiyi's two fists could not defeat four hands!

"This is the first point I wish to add for the two Emperors. I ask that Your Majesties establish the Yao Race first, and only then open up the Heavenly Court.

"As for opening up the Heavenly Court, I suggest that Your Majesties report it to the Purple Cloud Palace. If Teacher Hongjun issues a decree, then no matter how unwilling those Great Divine Ability Users may be, they will not dare obstruct our Yao Race from opening up the Heavenly Court!

"At most, they can only hide in the shadows, grumble a little, and throw a few obstacles in our path!"

Bai Ze clasped both hands and bowed solemnly toward the Purple Cloud Palace as he spoke.

"Report it to the Purple Cloud Palace? Would Teacher Hongjun agree?"

Hearing Bai Ze's suggestion, Taiyi was somewhat tempted, but hesitation appeared on his face as he asked uncertainly.

"Haha, second brother, that is what you do not understand. Teacher Hongjun of the Purple Cloud Palace will certainly agree."

Dijun, who had remained silent and listened all along, revealed a faint smile. He gave Bai Ze an approving glance before turning to Taiyi.

Seeing that Taiyi had not grasped the key, Bai Ze explained, "Since the Three Clans Tribulation and the war between immortals and demons, the Primordial World has lost the restraint of order. Previously, there were few living beings, so the lack of order did little harm.

"But now, the Primordial World has birthed more and more living beings, and their cultivation grows ever stronger. If order is not reestablished and they are allowed to fight and conquer one another, slaughter and destruction will be unavoidable, to the detriment of heaven and earth's growth.

"Teacher Hongjun of the Purple Cloud Palace is a Heavenly Dao Saint and the Dao Ancestor of the Mysterious Gate. Naturally, he will not stand by and allow this. If the two Emperors are willing to share Teacher Hongjun's burdens, he naturally will not object.

"Moreover, the two Emperors possess the fate of sovereigns and have inherited the Heavenly Court orthodoxy of the World of Gods and Demons. In the Primordial World, no one is more suitable than the two Emperors."

After hearing Bai Ze's analysis, Taiyi and the Solar God Palace great cultivators in the palace came to a sudden realization, their faces filled with delight.

After all, if they obtained the decree of the saint of the Purple Cloud Palace, then once they established the Yao Race Heavenly Court, they would thoroughly secure their position as the rightful orthodoxy of the Primordial World.

Then Bai Ze's voice continued to ring out through the palace. "Whether we establish the Yao Race or open up the Heavenly Court, we must continue drawing in Innate God-Demons born from the lineage of the Beast God.

"At present, there are three branches of Innate God-Demons in the Primordial World born from the Beast God's lineage: our Solar God Palace, Kunpeng's branch of the Northern Sea, and those Innate God-Demons of the Beast God lineage sheltered beneath the command of the great deities Nuwa and Fuxi at Fengqi Mountain.

"If we can draw the Northern Sea and Fengqi Mountain branches into the Yao Race Heavenly Court, the Yao Race's strength will certainly soar!"

Within the palace, as Dijun, Taiyi, and the others discussed establishing the Yao Race and opening up the Heavenly Court, Lu Yuan had already settled down within Shangqing Palace on Kunlun Mountain.
