Chapter 565: Chapter 393: Return service to the plum with a peach!_1

“Kikiki~ Precisely, I’ve heard that under Friend Xuanqing’s command, there is one who can craft exquisite wine known as ‘Drunk Golden Immortal’. I wonder what the taste is like.”

Lady Nuwa also pursed her lips in a smile.

To one side.

Taiqing Daode Tianzun, being of a more solemn temperament, merely nodded towards Xuanqing.

As for Zhunti and Jieyin, the pair of challenged brothers, due to their earlier mishap of accidentally releasing two demon gods, could only offer an awkward chuckle.

Seeing this.

“Since it is so, I would respectfully comply. I, Xuanqing, suggest that we go to the Taichu Dojo on Black Wind Mountain and have a grand celebration to honor Primordial World’s overcoming of the Catastrophe!”

Xuanqing declared loudly, naturally not willing to go against the wishes of the few Sages.

“Hahaha, excellent~ Let’s go to Taichu Dojo for the celebration,” Taiqing Daode Tianzun said, stroking his beard with a smile.

The other great Sages also showed a hint of anticipation in their eyes!

Speaking of which.

Ever since the Conferment of the Gods, when gods and devils began plotting over the Primordial World, these Sages of Primordial have been on high alert every single day, not daring to be the slightest bit negligent.

“It has been many years since I last returned to Primordial, I wonder how that little nine-tailed fellow is doing,” Nuwa looked into the void behind her, reminiscing in her heart.

Even the Two Saints, Zhunti and Jieyin, couldn’t help but wonder how the Western Religion, which had been transformed into Shimen, was faring nowadays.

…

…

In the Primordial World.

An event that shocked the entire Three Realms occurred.

The Six Great Sages have returned to the world!!

The sky was filled with holy light and the immense power of the world, and descriptions such as ‘earth spouting golden lotuses’ and ‘heavenly flowers falling in disarray’ were not enough to describe one ten-thousandth of it.

“Haotian, pays his respects to all Sages!”

“Earthly Immortal Zhen Yuanzi, pays his respects to all Sages!”

“This humble monk Shakyamuni… pays his respects to all Sages!”

“Lu Ya Wuchao….”

“Kong Xuan…..”

…

Under the astonished and stunned gazes of all beings, every notable figure in the Three Realms, no matter what they were doing, immediately put down what was in their hands and flew into the sky to pay their respects to the Six Sages.

For ordinary cultivators, both the leaders of the Three Realms and the Sages known from legends are extremely distant matters; they do not understand the significance of the Sages’ return.

But these veteran leaders are very clear in their hearts.

In the Primordial World, Sages represent the sky for everyone, no matter the sect or power… when encountering a Sage, one must perform the rites due to ‘Sir’!

Because the Sages’ divine spirits are entrusted to the Heavenly Path, in a sense, they represent not only themselves but also the sky of this world!!

…

However.

What happened next.

Completely stupefied all beings in the Three Realms.

“Master of Primordial Beginning, Xuanqing… has saved Primordial and his contributions are indispensable. We six Sages pray… from now on, all teachings should hold Primordial as the supreme!”

The majestic voice reverberated throughout the Three Realms, echoing in the minds of all creatures, including those of Quasi-Sages!

Boom!

Burst~

Countless creatures couldn’t help but gasp, utterly shocked at what Xuanqing had done to receive such treatment. Even the six Great Lords of the Primordial World bowed down to him… and even declared that all teachings should hold Primordial as the supreme!

….

Heavenly Court.

Atop Lingxiao Bao Hall.

The gods were already stunned by the sudden disappearance of their Jade Emperor, only to find out later that it was because of the return of the six Great Lords. Their hearts were already deeply shocked, and now they heard this news.

“Master of Primordial Beginning, Xuanqing… has saved Primordial and his contributions are indispensable. We six Sages pray… from now on, all teachings should hold Primordial as the supreme!”

The majestic voice of the Sages spread throughout the hall and echoed in their minds.

“All teachings should hold Primordial as the supreme…. All teachings should hold Primordial as the supreme…”

Taibai Venus’s body trembled, unable to steady the Duster in his hand, repeatedly muttering to himself.

Inside the main hall.

Not only Taibai Venus, but also Donghua Emperor who had many dealings with Xuanqing, Universal Transcendence of the Department of Thunder, and ‘Marshal Tianpeng and Purification Envoy’ Zhu Ganglie…

Were shaken to their core.

…

Headquarters of the Celestial River Naval Forces!

Zhu Ganglie, riding on an immortal horse, trembled slightly and murmured to himself, “Junior Xuanqing… Junior… ”

However.

As he prepared to utter ‘Junior Xuanqing’, he found he could not get the word ‘Junior’ out after saying ‘Junior’ no matter how hard he tried.

And.

A feeling of extreme dread washed over him. If he were to forcefully pronounce the two words ‘Junior Brother’, he feared he would die on the spot, his existence obliterated, beyond even the salvation of the Heavenly Path.

“Hiss…..”

The scenario, which felt as sacred as reciting the name of a Sage, or rather, even more terrifying than that, stupefied Zhu Ganglie. He could no longer speak and simply kept drawing sharp breaths.

Chaos Immortal!

The immense status that came with it meant that even a Quasi-sage could not bear the karmic consequence of uttering ‘Junior Brother’, let alone someone at the level of Zhu Ganglie.

….

…

Deep in the Netherworld.

Inside a simple wooden hut.

The Earth Queen Lady Houtu stepped out of her home, looking up at the sky, her heart turned upside down like rivers and seas.

Since the great battle between witches and monsters, her personality became quite pessimistic. Regarding the world of Primordial… she came to feel it would inevitably come to an end.

So… even though the Witch Tribe had recovered over the years, she still wouldn’t allow them to engage in the strife of Primordial.

Her plan was simply to nurture a few more individuals above the Great Luo realm, and before Primordial World utterly perished, send them out of Primordial to seek a new path in the Endless Chaos.

Her past regard for Xuanqing was such that she even gave away her most precious Magic Treasure, without the slightest desire for personal gain, solely because their paths of practice were ‘aligned in spirit’.
