Soon.
The Chaos Green Lotus shimmered with the light of the Great Dao, and Dong Wanggong and his six Dao Companions stood upon the earth.
"We pay our respects to the Immortal Emperor and the honored Empresses!"
The Three Pure Ones bowed and greeted him, leading their disciples.
"There's no need for such formalities. Find a place and sit."
Dong Wanggong nodded slightly and took his seat upon the jade throne Tongtian had prepared. Before him, the jade table was laid with all kinds of spirit fruits and Jade Nectar.
"Let Daoist Duobao take some time to prepare. For now, let's raise our cups!"
"Brothers, don't dwell on what happened in the past."
Haotian sat with the Three Pure Ones. He raised his Jade Cup and spoke apologetically.
He had been the instigator of the Investiture of the Gods Tribulation—and its greatest beneficiary. He had never really had the chance to speak his heart to the Three Pure Ones, but now that they were all gathered together, he personally toasted them.
The Mystic Gate had to stand united against the Demon Sect.
"Don't worry. We're not petty people!"
Primordial Heavenly Venerate slung an arm around Haotian's shoulder, smiling broadly.
There was no need to bring up the past.
Besides, if not for the Investiture of the Gods Tribulation, he might never have seen the true nature of his disciples.
"Junior Brother Haotian, come, let's have a drink..."
Amid the clinking of cups and lively conversation, the Three Pure Ones and the Heavenly Emperor Haotian smiled and put their grievances behind them.
The great powers from every corner gathered together.
They discussed the Great Dao and exchanged thoughts on all things in the Primordial Wilderness.
Seated on his jade throne, Dong Wanggong surveyed the gathering, a gentle expression on his face.
