Above the Heavenly Court, Zi Wei sat high upon the Heavenly Emperor's throne, watching Rahu's performance within the Heavenly Demon Realm with indifference. A playful smile curled at the corners of his lips as he murmured inwardly.
"If it were only the Investiture of the Gods itself, then after Attain Dao, you could indeed break free from the Heavenly Court's control!"
"But my Investiture of the Gods has long since merged with the Heavenly Court's Thirty-six Heavens."
"There are thirty-six realms—or rather, thirty-seven, including the original Star Realm. Although it merged into the Thirty-six Heavens, it became the bridge connecting them, and its World Origin continues to accumulate."
"This is Zi Wei's true Destiny World. These thirty-seven worlds have long since reached the level of Origin Worlds."
"Not to mention that the Heavenly Demon Realm is only a Great Thousand World for now. Even if it ascends to an Origin World, so what?"
"How could a low-level Origin World contend with thirty-seven mid- and high-level Origin Worlds?"
"And that is without even mentioning Rahu, who only ascended to become a Primordial Chaos Golden Immortal with the help of the Heavenly Demon Realm. Wanting to break free from the Heavenly Court's control is simply wishful thinking!"
However, Zi Wei was too lazy to lecture Rahu any further. After all, demon cubs were naturally difficult to tame!
As long as Rahu did not hold them back during the Final Battle, that would be enough. Still, he had to keep him in line.
Within the void of the Heavenly Demon Realm, Zi Wei's indifferent voice rang out: "Now that you have reclaimed control of the Heavenly Demon Realm, prepare for battle properly. The Tribulation is about to begin. Do not let it interfere with important matters."
"I shall obey the Heavenly Emperor's decree!"
