"Your subject, Li Jing, pays his respects to Your Majesty!"
Li Jing, the Pagoda-Bearing Heavenly King Li, is now a new saint. Although he says he is paying his respects, his behavior shows that he does not take the Mysterious Maiden of the Nine Heavens seriously at all. He stands very straight, like a divine sword standing between heaven and earth, his whole body exuding sharpness.
His eyes were dazzling and piercing, as if the myriad worlds within them were collapsing and the starry sky was crumbling. From the Linglong Pagoda he held in his left hand came a soft, high-pitched war song, as if declaring its master's intentions.
"What a clever Li Jing!" The Mysterious Maiden of the Nine Heavens saw through Li Jing's thoughts at a glance.
King against king!
Li Jing has now turned the tables and is going to treat his master as his own!
"I'd heard that Heavenly King Li had become a saint! I didn't expect it to be true!" Xiao Tian, transformed into Moon Rabbit, ate purple jade grapes and peaches, his eyes curiously observing Li Jing.
Li Jing glanced at Xiao Tian out of the corner of his eye, not even giving him a proper look, and rebuked him in a deep voice. "How dare this demon rabbit run wild in the Hall of High Heavens!"
"Your Majesty, let this old minister capture this impudent demon rabbit for you and send it to the execution Demon-Slaying Platform to demonstrate the might of Heaven!"
The Mysterious Maiden of the Nine Heavens and her trusted confidante Cailian, were filled with shock and anger.
Li Jing is being far too arrogant!
At this moment, Xiao Tian was secretly annoyed and couldn't help but mutter vulgarities in his mind.
"You, Li Jing! You've brought this upon yourself! You like dragging towers, don't you? Well, I'll give you a new job later!"
After a fleeting moment of internal monologue, Xiao Tian, in a second, was on full display of his acting prowess, his entire body flaring with fury. His bright eyes fixed on Li Jing, the Pagoda-Bearing Heavenly King Li Jing! I am the Moon Rabbit of the Palace of Broad Cold! Only my fairy Chang'e has the right to Self-Slaying! Don't think that just because you've become a saint you can be arrogant! What are you so cocky about! Don't you know this is the Hall of High Heavens! His Majesty is here; your domineering attitude suggests you're plotting a rebellion!"
"A rabbit from the Palace of Broad Cold? Hmph! Don't even mention that Fairy Chang'e can't come out, even if she could come out from Tai Y Star, what would I, the Heavenly King, care! You know this is the Hall of High Heavens! Is this a place for a little rabbit like you to speak!" Heavenly King Li's eyes were icy cold, like sharp swords.
"Hey! Heavenly King Li, don't change the subject! Are you planning a rebellion?! Do you not even respect the Deva Path?! Don't you know that His Majesty is the Heavenly Emperor, appointed by the Deva Path Dao? Do you not even have the cultivation of Great Luo Golden Immortal?"
Xiao Tian, transformed into the Moon Rabbit of the Moon Palace of Broad Cold, continued his offensive, causing Pagoda-Bearing Heavenly King Li, to raise his eyebrows in anger and his hair to stand on end, seemingly having been broken down by Xiao Tian's words.
"Nonsense!" Heavenly King Li's face darkened. He stared directly at the Mysterious Maiden of the Nine Heavens Mystic Maiden and said in a deep voice, "It is true that Your Majesty was appointed by Deva Path! But Deva Path has other plans! This old minister dares to request Your Majesty to abdicate and yield the throne to a worthy successor!"
He should step down and yield the position to a more capable person!
The Mysterious Maiden of the Nine Heavens and Cailian were taken aback by Pagoda-Bearing Heavenly King Li's forceful and coercive words.
Xiao Tian secretly exclaimed, "Wow, that's really direct! That's really domineering!"
The Mysterious Maiden of the Nine Heavens's face was covered in frost, and her starry eyes radiated a sharp light that could pierce the Nine Netherworlds.
" Heavenly King Li! Whom do you represent?!"
Pagoda-Bearing Heavenly King Li, stood firm, unfazed by the murderous glare of the Mysterious Maiden of the Nine Heavens, and declared resolutely, "This old minister does not represent any faction within the Heavenly Court, but the attitude of ninety percent of my colleagues within the Heavenly Court is the same as mine! Your Majesty is not qualified to assume the throne of the Heavenly Emperor!"
" Heavenly King Li! How dare you speak so arrogantly!" The Mysterious Maiden of the Nine Heavens clenched her jade hand into a fist, three thousand black robes fluttered, and the entire Hall of High Heavens was instantly filled with holy might.
"Hmph!" Pagoda-Bearing Heavenly King Li, stood tall between heaven and earth like a divine sword, showing no weakness and resisting the Sage pressure of the Mysterious Maiden of the Nine Heavens.
"Although Your Majesty was appointed by Deva Path, whether you have the ability to become our Heavenly Emperor and whether you have our approval is not something that can be changed by a mere Deva Path decree! Even if I die and am erased by Deva Path, I will not allow the Heavenly Court to be managed by incompetent people!"
" Mysterious Maiden of the Nine Heavens! If you have the ability, then show it! This world is no longer one where the might of Sage holds absolute power! If you want an old minister to assist you, you must first overcome your own life-or-death tribulation!"
Pagoda-Bearing Heavenly King Li, laughed heartily:
"If you are afraid, Mysterious Maiden of the Nine Heavens, this old minister advises you to abdicate and submit a petition to Deva Path. Perhaps then you can save your life!"
After saying this, Heavenly King Li turned his head, laughed loudly, and left.
The Hall of High Heavens trembled violently, and the celestial officials outside the palace shuddered in fear.
" Li Jing! Where are you going! My fairy wants to make a bet with you!"
Before Pagoda-Bearing Heavenly King Li, had gone far, a provocative voice from a fake rabbit in the Palace of Broad Cold caught up with him.
Li Jing frowned and stopped in his tracks.
He turned to look at the Moon Rabbit from the Palace of Broad Cold who had transformed into a human and emerged from there. His expression was dignified, and he said in a deep voice, "Your fairy cannot even leave Tai Y Star, and there are no treasures on Tai Y Star. What could possibly move this Heavenly King's heart?"
" Li Jing, who told you my fairy can't leave Tai Y Star? Was it your mother? Or your unborn grandson who traveled through time to tell you?"
Li Jing frowned deeply, looking at the Moon Rabbit of the Palace of Broad Cold, who was clearly a lady but had the mannerisms and tone of a shrew, and couldn't help but feel worried for the Tai Y Sage.
"How dare you, Heavenly Court maiden, speak so disrespectfully to this Heavenly King! Do you really think your maiden can protect you? Guards, seize this arrogant Moon Rabbit!"
The surrounding celestial soldiers immediately responded and swiftly surrounded and attacked Xiao Tian, who had transformed into Moon Rabbit.
"Damn it! You, Heavenly King Li, your path is really getting narrower and narrower! If I don't give you a good beating, you won't know your place!"
The Moon Rabbit Xiao Tian was secretly annoyed and immediately contacted his true form.
" Li Jing! I advise you not to court death! You have no chance of defeating my fairy!" Moon Rabbit Xiao Tian said confidently.
Li Jing frowned even more. Admittedly, if he were to truly fight the Tai Y Sage of Palace of Broad Cold, he might not be able to win. After all, the Tai Y Sage had the home-field advantage. If they were outside, he wouldn't lose either. However!
Tai Y Sage was renowned, and Yang Jian, who became a saint in the same batch as him, Zhu Bajie, who became a saint later, and several other geniuses Sage in the Primordial, were all ardent fans (simps) of Tai Y Sage, and had a deep crush on him.
Aside from Yang Jian, who dared not go to the Palace of Broad Cold to see Chang'e and express his love, but only dared to observe her secretly and pave the way for her, helping to eliminate all the scheming male immortals who threatened Chang'e, the others were no pushovers either.
" The Third in the family and Yang Jian have a good relationship, but that can't change Yang Jian's nature of being crazy in love."
" The Tai Y Sage can never leave Tai Y Star! This was said by the Heavenly Venerable Yuanshi! Tai Y Star and fell Tai Y Star!"
Li Jing stared at the Moon Rabbit and couldn't help but laugh loudly, "What a cunning Moon Rabbit from the Palace of Broad Cold! Does it really think this Heavenly King is so easily fooled? If your fairy could come out of Tai Y Star, this Heavenly King would gladly let you kick my head like a football!"
"Holy crap!" Moon Rabbit Xiao Tian was shocked. This Heavenly King Li's flag was really ruthless!
Looking at the seemingly ordinary yet confident Pagoda-Bearing Heavenly King Li, Xiao Tian, Moon Rabbit, felt a mixture of sympathy and expectation in his Heavenly Eye.
" Li Jing, I really look forward to taking your head off and using it as a football! I would be recorded in history, my name echoing throughout the heavens and myriad worlds! I would be the first person to kick a Sage's head!"
Li Jing couldn't help but feel a toothache, and his anger surged to the top of his head.
"This Heavenly King hasn't encountered such an arrogant little fairy in a long time! Arrest her! Tai Y Sage holds me accountable, this Heavenly King will take the blame! Today, if this Heavenly King doesn't teach you a lesson, you shrew, you won't know the meaning of 'female virtue'!"
"Who dares to touch me! Get out of my way! Do you want to die!" Moon Rabbit Xiao Tian was surrounded by holy and dazzling Yuehua, and his Quasi-Sage aura directly suppressed the approaching heavenly soldiers.
"Hmph!" Although Heavenly King Li did not make a move, his cold snort directly shattered the Quasi-Sage's pressure, allowing the heavenly soldiers to resume their actions.
Below the Sage, all are but ants!
"You idiot Li Jing! You fool! If you remain obstinate, you're finished! There's no Investiture of the Gods to protect you anymore!"
Li Jing was furious; the Investiture of the Gods had always been a source of pain for him!
Although his name was not on the Investiture of the Gods in the past, the Investiture of the Investiture of the Gods was torn up during the great Great Tribulation before the Deva Path Deva Path, which ended the Great Tribulation prematurely, causing the various departments of the Heavenly Court to be absent. Li Jing went through layers of tests to rise to power and was finally valued by the Heavenly Emperor Haotian.
but!
After that, Haotian gave him a task: to strengthen the Heavenly Court!
The Second of the Investiture of the Gods has fallen into his hands!
He failed miserably in his plan to Investiture of the Gods Second. He adopted the wrong approach and achieved the wrong result, which led to a long period of Deva Path punishment upon himself.
Arrest him! Immediately!
Seeing Li Jing suddenly explode in a rage, the Moon Rabbit Xiao Tian suddenly remembered that in this world, during the Investiture of the Gods period, he had destroyed the Investiture of the Gods, and Heavenly King Li was not included in Investiture of the Gods.
"No wonder it exploded!" The omniscient and omnipotent man learned the wonders of the Second of the Investiture of the Gods.
The heavenly soldiers, steeling themselves, launched their attack. The Moon Rabbit Xiao Tian feigned that he was being suppressed by Li Jing's masterful gaze and divine might, unable to mobilize his magic power and thus in danger.
"Who dares to touch my bunny!"
A clear, cold voice echoed, Tai Y Sage Chang'e, with Whirling Wind Dancing Snow unparalleled beauty and grace, descended upon this place.
The chilling, desolate atmosphere permeated the heavenly soldiers, Ice Seal the clouds around Heavenly King Li and his companions at their ankles.
The chilling desolation seeped into my bones; the loneliness and desolation penetrated deep into my heart; the bitter resentment clung to my bones like poison.
The heavenly soldiers present stood stiffly, their faces filled with sorrow, and tears streamed uncontrollably down their cheeks.
Heavenly King Li felt a chill run down his spine and his scalp tingled. The Tai Y Sage Chang'e Fairy could actually come out of Tai Y Star!
This! How is this possible!
It was Heavenly Venerable Yuanshi, one of the Three Pure Ones, who said that Chang'e's ascension to sainthood would definitely not be possible outside of Tai Y Star!
How could this be!
The Chang'e, with her own domain, exuding indifference, coldness, loneliness, and resentment, easily broke through the Sage's protective aura and attacked Heavenly King Li's mind.
Li Jing suppressed the external mental attack, his heart sinking. Currently, he could only use 70% of his magical power!
Thirty percent requires one's own mental strength to suppress!
At the same time, Chang'e was overjoyed! She could finally leave Tai Y Star and descend upon the Heavenly Court realm beyond Tai Y Star —a long-cherished wish she had held for many years since becoming a saint!
"Bunny, how could you..."
Chang'e frowned. At first glance, she recognized that this was not her Moon Rabbit, but with her Linglong wit, she instantly understood the whole story.
What exactly does Deva Path intend to do?
Chang'e didn't think much of it; she was allowed to descend to the Heavenly Court to help the Moon Rabbit out of its predicament.
"Sister Chang'e!" Xiao Tian, Moon Rabbit, immediately looked aggrieved, transformed into Moon Rabbit, and leaped towards Chang'e.
Chang'e instinctively opened her arms and hugged the Moon Rabbit, but only afterward did she realize that it wasn't her Moon Rabbit.
For a moment, Chang'e felt a little uncomfortable. She carefully examined the fake Moon Rabbit and could only see that it had the cultivation level of Quasi-Sage, but she couldn't discern its origin.
"Is this Moon Rabbit a trick of Deva Path?"
Holding the Moon Rabbit, Chang'e turned her gaze to Pagoda-Bearing Heavenly King Li- Bearing Heavenly Li Jing, her expression indifferent and cold, and questioned, "When did Heavenly King Li learn to bully the younger generation! If I hadn't come out, were you going to send my Moon Rabbit to the Demon-Slaying Platform?!"
"What are you saying, fairy? Please don't be angry." Heavenly King Li knew that this was not a place for fighting, and once a battle started, he probably wouldn't be a match for him in a one-on-one fight. Moreover, afterward, the Fengzi Yang Jian would definitely come looking for trouble, which would be the most troublesome thing.
" Li Jing, give this emperor an explanation!"
"Fairy, Li Jing apologizes to you." Heavenly King Li smiled, but the smile looked completely fake.
Having become a saint, Chang'e changed, and she was very disappointed.
" Heavenly King Li, you've wronged my Moon Rabbit!"
The Moon Rabbit Xiao Tian proudly stretched out its head, its little paws waving arrogantly at Li Jing, as if to provoke him.
Seeing the Moon Rabbit's arrogant behavior, Heavenly King Li's forehead veins bulged. After hesitating for a moment, he still chose to back down.
" Moon Rabbit, my actions just now were indeed a bit rash. I apologize."
"Sister Chang'e, I can't see any sincerity in this guy at all."
Heavenly King Li's face darkened; this Moon Rabbit was really getting worked up!
Chang'e was speechless. Gently soothing the Moon Rabbit with her jade-like hand, she said to Li Jing, " Li Jing, let's leave it at that. However, there's something I must remind you of. Although I don't wish to interfere in the affairs of Heavenly Court, please don't stray onto the wrong path."
"This guy has gone down the wrong path! He's hopeless! No matter what I say or do, it won't change my mind that I'm going to make him into that kind of guy!" Moon Rabbit Xiao Tian thought viciously to himself, and then comfortably rolled over.
"I will remember what the fairy says. Farewell!" Li Jing was in a bad mood and did not want to linger here for even a moment longer.
"Rabbit, where are you going next?" Chang'e asked telepathically, rubbing the Moon Rabbit Xiao Tian.
"I'll just wander around the Heavenly Court. Sister Chang'e, come out for a moment. From now on, I can walk sideways with my head held high."
Chang'e also understood that her time to come to the Heavenly Court had come.
After releasing the Moon Rabbit Xiao Tian, Chang'e ascended to heaven and returned to the Heavenly Dao Palace to continue raising rabbits.
The fact that the goddess Chang'e, the sage of Tai Y Sage, was able to leave Tai Y Star and even intimidate Pagoda-Bearing Heavenly King Li, truly shocked some of the Sage in the Heavenly Court.
Things are getting more and more outrageous! The saints' plan has been overturned once again! They continue to discuss how to punish the current Heavenly Emperor, the Mysterious Maiden of the Nine Heavens.
The Moon Rabbit Xiao Tian transformed into human form and wandered around the various Tenten realms of the Heavenly Court.
Of course, I wasn't just wandering around aimlessly; I was searching for the 'junk' left behind by the Great Heavenly Venerate Lingbao.
Xiao Tian didn't know what level the Great Heavenly Venerate Lingbao was at, but one thing Xiao Tian was very clear about was that, no matter what, matters concerning the Great Heavenly Venerate Lingbao had to be handled with utmost caution.
Because of the Tai Y Sage Chang'e, wherever the Moon Rabbit Xiao Tian went, the immortals who had been instructed to do so greeted him with smiles, showered him with small gifts, and flattered him.
However, Xiao Tian, Moon Rabbit, firmly adhered to his principles!
"Peaches from the Peach Banquet? Aren't you worried about them getting moldy and expiring? Did you spoil them a little? This little Baobao so cute and beautiful, you wouldn't have designs on me, would you?"
"What kind of magical fruit is this? Get it away! I don't want any food or drink! When I'm traveling, Sister Chang'e told me never to eat or drink anything from strangers."
"What?! A peach from a 90,000-year-old immortality peach! It looks quite appealing! This little sister of yours, I'm determined to teach her. Give it to me!"
Unbeknownst to him, Xiao Tian, Moon Rabbit, who had reaped countless small gains, strolled by and passed by the Manor of the Manifest Sage True Lord!
Who lives inside the True Lord Talisman? It's none other than Yang Jian, the legendary God of War of Heavenly Court!
Since becoming a saint, Yang Jian has become increasingly lazy. He has lost his martial arts skills and uses his Three-Pointed Double-Edged Sword as a barbecue skewer, becoming a well-known "saintly slacker" among the immortals in the Heavenly Court.
Yang Jian has become increasingly mysterious, and many of his close friends have found it difficult to even catch a glimpse of him!
This piqued the curiosity of the Moon Rabbit, Xiao Tian!
Based on the Primordial Heavenly Dao, which grant omniscience and omnipotence, it can be determined that Erlang Shen Yang Jian is inside the mansion.
Upon arriving at the Manor of the Manifest Sage True Lord, after glancing at the plaque, Moon Rabbit Xiao Tian's gaze fell upon a fat pig snoring beside a heavenly soldier on the left side of the entrance.
"Is this pig Heaven-Howling Dog?"
The Heavenly Soldier Han Mao, who was being questioned, was stunned. His scalp tingled, and he quickly shook his head, shut his mouth, and even tried to run away.
"Who, who's talking about me?!"
The Heaven-Howling Dog opened its sleepy eyes and saw a beautiful fairy who was spotless, holy, and radiant.
"Girl, who are you?"
Looking at the Heaven-Howling Dog fat pig, Moon Rabbit Xiao Tian remained silent for a moment, then stared wide-eyed in disbelief and said, "Sister Chang'e said that the Heaven-Howling Dog was the most beautiful and valiant dog god in the Heavenly Court, so how did it become like this!"
The Heaven-Howling Dog was initially furious, but upon hearing the name Chang'e, he immediately became listless, struggling to open his eyelids, which were pressed down by fat, and carefully examined the fairy in front of him.
" The Moon Rabbit of the Palace of Broad Cold?"
"It's me, Fatty, Heaven-Howling Dog. Is your owner home?"
The Heaven-Howling Dog instantly exploded like a powder keg, roaring furiously:
"That despicable Yang Jian! Ever since he became a saint, all he knows is extravagance and indulgence! He's fallen! He's always sending me fine wine and meat! But he never takes me out to have fun! Look at my physique, it's not good at all! Moon Rabbit, you want to see him, huh? Just wait, I'll go in and bite him out of there!"
boom!
As the Heaven-Howling Dog rose to his feet, the First Heaven realm seemed to tremble!
The Heaven-Howling Dog slowly began to run, and the Moon Rabbit Xiao Tian couldn't help but worry about whether the floor tiles could bear the weight.
"Good heavens! They've all turned into pigs! Peace and tranquility are truly the most deadly poison to ruin a strong person!"
Before long, the ground trembled slowly yet extremely strongly! The heavenly soldiers at the gate were dumbfounded! They only saw their True Lord, Yang Jian, who had become a saint, struggling to walk out, his left leg being tightly bitten by the fat Heaven-Howling Dog.
" Moon Rabbit, does your fairy want to see me? Come in, what would you like to eat? Do you like the 90,000-year-old peaches? If not, I also have some rare carrots..." Yang Jian, who had just stepped out of the door, had a smile as warm as a spring breeze, like a gentle man who warms the heart.
The Heaven-Howling Dog's eyes were filled with contempt!
"Something's not right." Looking at Erlang Shen Yang Jian in front of him, the Moon Rabbit Xiao Tian was startled.
