The clan leader and several elders of the Green Hill Foxes nervously followed behind Dumbo, traversing the passageway shrouded in immortal mist towards the luxurious palace.
On both sides of the immortal path stood a group of alien pseudo-overgods in armor.
Jiang He did not have as many foreign pseudo-Overdeities as before. In the battle at the Grand Luo battlefield, seventeen of the three hundred foreign pseudo-Overdeities had fallen and sixty had self-destructed.
After that, several more had self-destructed outside the Grand Luo battlefield, and the remaining two hundred and eighty foreign pseudo-Overdeities were all standing on both sides of the immortal path.
They still retained many of their race's traits.
Their gazes were ferocious.
Their auras were cold.
Almost every twenty meters, there would be a Pseudo-Overgod of an alien race.
That left the clan leader and elders of the Green Hill Foxes feeling immense pressure and apprehension. At the same time, it also proved that the battle at the Grand Luo battlefield was not exaggerated!
Soon, they saw Jiang He.
Jiang He was having a drink with the Jade Emperor at the moment. When he saw that the Green Hill Foxes had arrived and remembered how he had told them to be courteous, he promptly rose to his feet to greet them, appearing very courteous.
The leaders of the Green Hill Foxes had no idea what Jiang He was planning, and could only force ugly smiles.
After a few pleasantries, Jiang He cut to the chase. "I know why you have come. You want nothing more than to resolve your grudge with me and resolve the karma between us … the fact that you have come to the Celestial Court to meet me shows your sincerity."
Jiang He said, looking out into the distance with a nostalgic look in his eyes. Breathing a long sigh, he said, "Now that I think about it, I was really young and full of vigor back then … I was just a newbie who had cultivated immortal arts for a few months, and yet I shouldered the heavy burden of protecting the homeworld, fighting against the Sky Demons alone!"
Jiang He withdrew his gaze after a long while and glanced at the leaders of the Green Hill Foxes, saying, "Back on the homeworld, the Green Hill Foxes had left the strongest legacies, not just an immortal weapon but also the corpse of an immortal daemon."
"And yet, when the Sky Demon legion had reached the homeworld, not a single one of your unfilial descendants, immortal sects, or demonic sects had come to help."
"After I destroyed the vanguard of the Sky Demons, they saw that I was quite capable and came to take me in as a disciple, but I refused and turned against them to suppress me … all I could do was fight back."
Jiang He recounted his past.
This could be considered as an explanation to the Green Hill Foxes, telling them the cause of the conflict between him and the Green Hill lineage that remained on Earth.
An elder of the Green Hill Fox Clan frowned and said in surprise, "That's impossible. Our Green Hill lineage has never taken a human as a disciple!"
"…"
Jiang He facepalmed. "Oh, right … the one who wants me as a disciple isn't the Green Hill Clan's disdainful offspring on Earth, but the Penglai Sect or something."
"I remember now!"
"The elites of the Green Hill Foxes were wary of my rapid growth, so they sent me an invitation to Green Hill Foxes to kill me. I had no choice but to kill them."
"Mister Jiang!"
One of the white-haired Elder Foxes said, "Even if our descendants are in the wrong, it is not so wrong that our clan should be wiped out."
"Hmmm?"
Jiang He's gaze darkened and he looked coldly at the Elder Foxes, asking word by word, "Are you teaching me how to do things?"
"…"
The Elder Fox's heart skipped a beat. All he felt was a mysterious killing intent engulfing him, as if he would be slapped to death if he said a single wrong word. Hence, he shuddered at once, not daring to breathe.
Jiang He, however, sneered. "Since they wanted to kill me, being killed by me only means their lack of skill … I've also killed all the immortal daemons that your Green Hill Foxes sent later … I'll accept your vengeance if you want it."
"Of course, we are all beings of the Three Realms, and your Green Hill Foxes have contributed to the Three Realms. I don't want to destroy your clan by killing again."
Jiang He spoke flatly.
Even so, his words were undoubtedly a thunderclap to the ears of the Green Hill Foxes.
The Green Hill Foxes' leader quickly said, "You must be joking, Mister Jiang. It was a misunderstanding between our clan and you in the first place … moreover, our clan had migrated to the celestial battlefield for years, and the legacy we left on the homeworld was established by a lesser daemon who had betrayed the Green Hill Foxes."
"As for the immortal daemons we sent to the homeworld, they were there to reinforce the homeworld and repel the legion of the Hundred Races Alliance. Since they provoked you, Mister Jiang, it is fine if they die."
As he spoke, he took out two Spatial Rings with a flip of his hand and smiled apologetically. "Still, it is the fault of the Green Hill Foxes in the end, and we are willing to compensate for disturbing you, Mister Jiang."
Jiang He accepted the Spatial Rings and scanned them with his immortal will.
There was not much inside, just a million immortal crystals, several premium-grade immortal items, and some medicinal pellets.
Nonchalantly handing the Spatial Rings to Dumbo, Jiang He flatly said, "Let's call it a day. Take care, the Green Hill Foxes."
Delighted, the clan leader of the Green Hill Foxes bade farewell and offered Jiang He and the Jade Emperor a fist-palm salute before quickly leaving with their clan elders.
After the Green Hill Foxes left, Jiang He felt as if half of the stone in his heart had been lifted, and he smiled at the Jade Emperor. "You must be joking, Brother Jade Emperor … to tell the truth, I've set two small goals for myself in coming to the celestial battlefield … the first is to resolve my grudge with the Green Hill Foxes, which I've finally accomplished."
The Jade Emperor asked curiously, "What about the second goal?"
"The second is to resolve the karmic ties between me and the Nether River Patriarch."
The Jade Emperor laughed out loud. "It seems that your second goal would be difficult to achieve for the time being."
"That's not difficult."
Jiang He said confidently. "When I cultivate up to full-fledged Demi-Saint and improve my martial arts to the fourteenth-tier, I could kill the Nether River Patriarch and resolve my karmic ties."
After another three days, the Jade Emperor sent people to deliver a large number of immortal pills. There were millions of them.
Most of them were rank-three and rank-four, followed by rank-five and rank-six, and rank-seven and rank-eight immortal pellets were even rarer.
Most of the rank-three and rank-four immortal pellets were used to restore Immortal Yuan Strength and Immortal Dao, and were useful for Heavenly Immortals and True Immortals.
At the same time, the Jade Emperor sent someone to take away the immortal items that had been planted and harvested.
…
Back at the Cloud Palace of the Golden Arches.
After sending an immortal soldier to deliver the immortal pellets to Jiang He, the Jade Emperor summoned Lü Dongbin and instructed him, "Since there is no fighting at the frontlines, you could recycle some of the immortal items and mystic treasures of the many celestial soldiers and generals, and distribute them after Jiang He has reforged them."
"No!"
"You mustn't, Your Majesty!"
The Jade Emperor had just finished his words when one after another celestial officials walked out and spoke, there was even a white-haired old celestial who knelt down and advised, "Your Majesty, now that the Celestial Emperor Treasury has been emptied, if we take back the celestial weapons and treasures of the celestial soldiers and generals, once something happens, many celestial soldiers and generals will not have celestial weapons and treasures in hand, their battle power will be greatly reduced."
"I believe in Mister Jiang's methods."
The Jade Emperor flatly said, "After he reforged them, the mystic treasures would be improved to the next level and their power would increase greatly. When the time comes, the overall combat ability of the Celestial Court's armies would improve greatly, and it would be beneficial to the Celestial Court."
"Please reconsider, Your Majesty!"
An elderly courtier stepped forward and advised, "Mister Jiang's methods are mysterious and unfathomable, and we are all in awe … but he is just one person. Even if he could clone himself, it would be a long process to refine every immortal item and mystic treasure …"
That was when the immortal soldier the Jade Emperor sent to deliver the immortal pellets returned, and asked for an audience outside the Cloud Palace.
The Jade Emperor granted the immortal soldier special permission to enter the Cloud Palace.
