Not long after Minghe left the Haotian Palace, waves of fluctuations spread out from the Chaos Sea of the 33 Heavens.
Sensing the situation outside the palace, Cheng Hao could not help but frown. Then, with a thought, the palace door quietly opened.
"Since you're here, come in!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Hongjun, who was dressed in a dark green robe, strolled in with an indescribable majesty of the Heavenly Dao at the opened door of the Haotian Palace.
The person who came was not Hongjun himself, but the Third Corpse Hongjun who had already reached the Dao Integration Stage.
"Fellow Daoist, please take a seat!"
Cheng Hao raised his hand and pointed at the void. Suddenly, a futon on a Dao platform appeared out of thin air and stood in mid-air, facing the high platform he was on.
Hongjun nodded and took a step forward. The futon on the Dao platform flashed and his figure appeared.
"The Great Witch Demon War this time was the largest calamity since the opening of the sky. Now that the calamity is over, I can be considered to have settled the great karma left behind by the opening of the sky. I'm not far from completely settling all the karma with the Heavenly Dao!"
This time, Hongjun did not exchange pleasantries after arriving. Instead, he went straight to the point and explained his intentions.
"The karma before the opening of the sky is almost settled. Next, it's to perfect the operating rules of the Eldritch World. In order to complete this goal, there will be a few more calamities in the future!"
Cheng Hao's expression did not change. He nodded calmly. "Fellow Daoist, you've already reached the Dao Integration Stage and represent the will of the Heavenly Dao. Whether you need to launch a calamity in the future, you can decide for yourself. There's no need to inform me!"
"Although that's the case, fellow Daoist, you're the Haotian Dao Ancestor of the Eldritch World after all. There are some things that I still need to discuss with you!"
The white-haired Hongjun shook his head gently. No one could tell what he was thinking from his expression. No one knew what he was thinking.
"This time, both the Witch Demon War and the Eldritch World suffered great losses and left the stage of the Eldritch World. However, the Heavenly Court needs to be rebuilt to restore the order of the world and educate all living beings. I wonder if fellow Daoist agrees? "
"Of course!" Cheng Hao naturally would not object to such a thing. After all, although the Sages had the responsibility of educating the Untainted Land, they could not let the Sages deal with some trivial matters in the Untainted Land personally, right?
Therefore, the reestablishment of the Heavenly Court was inevitable.
"In that case, do you have a suitable candidate in mind?" Hongjun continued to ask.
"Fellow Daoist Hongjun, you can make the decision yourself. There's no need to ask me!"
Cheng Hao did not really care about who the Celestial Emperor would be when the Heavenly Court was rebuilt. After all, what he wanted was the entire Untainted Land. A Celestial Emperor who was bound to become a puppet under the pressure of the Sages was indeed beneath his notice.
"I feel that Minghe, your subordinate, can take on this great responsibility in terms of strength and reputation. What do you think?"
Hearing this, Cheng Hao was slightly stunned. Then, he shook his head and said, "That's not right. Minghe is a person who has the opportunity to become a Sage. Soon, he will become a Sage. With a Sage overseeing the Heavenly Court, I'm afraid the Sages will cause trouble in the future!"
"Fellow Daoist, your worries are not unreasonable!"
Seeing that Cheng Hao directly refused, Hongjun did not insist. Instead, he revealed a rather awkward expression. It seemed that it was difficult to choose the next candidate for the Celestial Emperor.
"Why, don't you have a suitable candidate?"
"The people I valued before were Minghe and Fuxi. But now that Fuxi has entered the reincarnation cycle and Minghe is about to become a Sage, he is not suitable to be the Celestial Emperor. For a while, there is indeed no suitable candidate! "
"I see!"
Cheng Hao smiled. He finally understood the purpose of Hongjun's visit. This person wanted him to choose a Celestial Emperor.
In this way, the karma between Cheng Hao and the Untainted Land would be deepened. He would not have to go against the Heavenly Way for no reason.
After all, he was the one who chose the Celestial Emperor. In the future, if there were any major events in the Untainted Land that were inconvenient for Hongjun to take action directly, as the teacher of the Celestial Emperor, he could not just stand by and do nothing, right?
"Fellow Daoist, if you are really in a difficult position, I have a suitable candidate here!"
Cheng Hao did not refuse Hongjun's plan. Anyway, sooner or later, the Untainted Land would become a part of his Inner World. In that case, he would choose a person he liked to look at to be the Celestial Emperor of the Untainted Land Heavenly Court!
"Oh? Fellow Daoist, please speak! "
Cheng Hao smiled and waved his sleeve. Suddenly, the power of time and space spread out. In the waves of time and space ripples, a young man and a young woman walked out in a daze.
The two of them looked to be 15 or 16 years old. The man was handsome and looked 70 to 80% similar to Cheng Hao. The woman was beautiful and looked quite similar to Lin Xi.
The two of them were Little Tian and Nanan, who spent most of their time in the Inner World.
"Father!"
After the surrounding time and space ripples disappeared, Little Tian saw Cheng Hao sitting on the high platform and immediately shouted happily.
"Brother!" Nanan was also very excited to see Cheng Hao. However, in the presence of Hongjun, an outsider, she did not rush up directly. Instead, she stood beside Little Tian and shouted with a smile.
Cheng Hao nodded gently to the two of them, and then turned his eyes to Hongjun.
"Fellow Daoist, do you think these two people can be the Celestial Emperor and the Empress?"
Hongjun looked at Little Tian and Nanan in surprise, as if he was trying to recall whether they had appeared in the Untainted Land before. However, after thinking for a long time, he could not find any impression of them.
"The cultivation of Sage-to-be Early-stage is enough to be the Celestial Emperor. But I wonder, what is the relationship between them and fellow Daoist?"
"They can be considered as my son and daughter!" Cheng Hao answered ambiguously.
Hearing this, Hongjun showed a look of understanding. He more or less had his own judgment. These two people should be special life forms created by Haotian Tao Ancestor.
Hongjun could not determine how the girl was created for the time being. However, the young man was very similar to Cheng Hao. He guessed that this person should be like the Human Race and had been given a special bloodline by Cheng Hao.
"Since they are your descendants, they are qualified to be the Celestial Emperor!"
Hongjun was very satisfied with Cheng Hao's approach. In fact, he did not care who would be the Celestial Emperor. Today, he came mainly to let Cheng Hao choose a candidate for the Celestial Emperor and deepen the karmic connection between him and the Untainted Land.
"In that case, I will pass on the news of the reconstruction of the Heavenly Court to the other Sages. When the Heavenly Court is rebuilt, I hope fellow Daoist can lend a helping hand."
Since the matter had been settled, Hongjun did not continue to stay. After nodding, he walked out of Haotian Palace under the curious gazes of Little Tian and Nanan.
"Father, do you really want me to be the Celestial Emperor?" After Hongjun left, Little Tian and Nanan could not wait to come to Cheng Hao, their eyes full of excitement.
