Song Zhong heaved a sigh of relief when he saw that the Golden Phoenix Heavenly Empress had tactfully agreed. This way, he could give an explanation to the Queen Mother and the Grand Elder.
Since he had already vented his anger, he believed that the rest of SongZhong's subordinates would also not have any complaints. After all, the vanguard's duty was not that easy to complete. After this battle, who knew how many demons would die. It could be considered as avenging those Flower Demons who had died tragically.
Song Zhong waved his hand, indicating for the Golden Phoenix Heavenly Empress to stand up. Then, he continued to entertain the Queen Mother and the Grand Elder.
Seeing this, the Queen Mother and the Grand Elder were quite satisfied. Although the Golden Phoenix Heavenly Empress had become Song Zhong's servant from now on, she could only blame herself for being foolish.
That betrayal was too much. It was already very good that Song Zhong had spared her life. This was definitely because of the two of them.
Moreover, although the Golden Phoenix Heavenly Empress had become a servant in name, everyone knew that her identity was extraordinary. As long as she made a great contribution in the future, the Queen Mother and the Grand Elder would continue to plead for her and she might be able to regain her freedom.
Of course, all of this would depend on her future performance. If she was still half-hearted or disobeyed the vanguard's mission because she pitied her subordinates, she might not even be able to keep her old life!
But no matter what, this matter had finally come to an end. In the following time, it was time for everyone to feast to their heart's content.
The Queen Mother and Song Zhong had already become Sages. Although the Grand Elder had yet to become a Sage, he was only one step away and could break through at any time. Therefore, the three of them had similar statuses. They sat at the table and drank to their heart's content.
No one dared to disturb them. The three of them had a good relationship. This time, they had a great victory, so they drank to their heart's content. The celebration banquet only ended after nearly ten days. Song Zhong was still thinking about the counterattack and ended the banquet early. Otherwise, they would have been drinking for a few months!
After all, this was the most glorious victory in the Heavenly Court in millions of years. How could they not drink to their heart's content?
After the banquet, no one left. Instead, according to Song Zhong's orders, they began to reorganize the army, selecting the strong and discarding the weak, and redistributing them.
Although the original number of troops was large, it was a pity that they were too messy, with varying strengths and without a unified command, they could only be described as a mass of scattered sand. Such an army was clearly too weak.
It was just that the situation was urgent at that time, so he didn't have the time to adjust. But now, it was different. Song Zhong planned to form a new elite troop and then charge into the Buddhist League.
With Song Zhong's current status, he did not need to worry about rebuilding the army himself. Everything was left to the Jade Emperor and Shura Xue. The Jade Emperor was responsible for coordinating the subordinates of the other Celestial Emperors, as well as all the miscellaneous troops. As for Shura Xue, she was still in charge of all the Divine Lightning Flying Ships.
Under normal circumstances, the other Celestial Emperors would definitely not submit to the Jade Emperor's leadership. But now, the situation was different. After inheriting the Water God Gonggong's mantle, the Jade Emperor's strength had increased by leaps and bounds. He was already a level higher than the other Celestial Emperors.
Moreover, the current situation dictated that the Heavenly Court's army needed an absolute leader. Therefore, the Celestial Emperors were very cooperative and were willing to follow the Jade Emperor's orders.
The Jade Emperor was also a shrewd person. He did not dare to offend the Celestial Emperors too much. Since they were willing to follow his orders, he also returned the favor and said that he could let the Celestial Emperors continue to lead their own subordinates.
The Jade Emperor would not interfere with the matters of their subordinates. As long as the Celestial Emperors were willing to follow the Jade Emperor's orders, it was fine.
Because the Buddhist League's attack was extremely sudden and abnormally vicious, it was equivalent to slapping the Immortal World in the face. This caused the various factions in the Immortal World to be extremely angry with the Buddhist League.
Under such circumstances, none of them wanted to become pitiful creatures who only knew how to kowtow and worship the Buddhas. Therefore, for this reorganization, everyone was surprisingly cooperative. Everyone was holding back their energy, wanting to take revenge on the Buddhists.
Therefore, the generals of the Heavenly Court who were of one mind began a vigorous reorganization and training exercise in the Eastern Royal Heaven. At the same time, great amounts of supplies were shipped over from Zhu Rong Heaven and other places as well.
The entire Eastern Royal Immortal Realms became a huge military camp. Everyone's morale was high and they were filled with anticipation for the battle against the Buddhist Sect.
Just as the troops below were preparing for battle, Song Zhong, Xi Wangmu, and the First Elder arrived at a secret room.
After the three of them sat down, Song Zhong asked curiously, "You two brought me here so mysteriously. Do you have something important to say?"
"Indeed!" The Queen Mother of the West said solemnly, "Your Majesty, have you decided to launch a large-scale attack on the Buddhist League?"
"Yes, this is obvious!" Song Zhong said indifferently, "We can't suffer such a big loss for nothing, right?"
"Then can I know how powerful your attack is?" The Queen Mother of the West said, "Are you going to take down dozens of worlds to vent your anger, or do you really want to exterminate the Buddhist League?"
"Naturally, I want to exterminate the Buddhist League!" Song Zhong said somewhat angrily, "These fellows are too much. I will never forgive them!"
"This ~" The Queen Mother of the West and the First Elder exchanged glances. Then, she smiled bitterly and said, "Your Majesty, I also know that the Buddhist League has wild ambitions. They are really not good people. However, they are extremely strong. They have occupied the Western Pure Land for millions of years and have accumulated a lot of resources. Even if they are defeated this time, I'm afraid they won't be destroyed so easily! "
"Yes!" The First Elder also persuaded, "I think it's fine if you attack and occupy some territories. There's really no need to go deep into the Pure Land. That is not a good place. Even if you have a million Divine Thunder Flying Boats, it will still be difficult to take them down! "
"Hmm?" Song Zhong heard this and could not help but frown, "The two of you seem to have little confidence in me? The Buddhist League's strength has been greatly reduced. Hundreds of thousands of pagodas have been destroyed. In addition, I have the Bell of Chaos. Under such circumstances, don't I have the confidence to win? "
"Sigh!" Hearing this, the Queen Mother of the West sighed helplessly and said, "Your Majesty, you underestimate the Buddhist League too much. Although they had suffered heavy losses this time and could even be said to have suffered serious injuries, it was still not enough to make them lose much of their vitality. The Western Pure Land still has a strong defensive force! It is enough to resist your army. "
"That's right!" The First Elder said, "In addition, don't think that your Bell of Chaos is invincible. In fact, the Buddhist League still has a way to resist it!"
"What?" Song Zhong heard this and immediately said in surprise, "Do they still have a Supreme Artifact in their hands?"
"No, they don't. A Supreme Artifact is not something that can be casually obtained. There are only nine of them in the world, and many of them have been taken away by the True Gods. In short, the Buddhist League originally only had one Genesis Lotus, and now they have none! "The Queen Mother of the West said with a smile.
"Since they don't have a Supreme Artifact, how can they resist my Bell of Chaos?" Song Zhong asked, puzzled.
The Queen Mother of the West and the First Elder looked at each other as if they had made a decision. Then, they looked at Song Zhong solemnly.
The Queen Mother of the West said seriously, "Donghuang, when the Supreme Artifact was in your hands, was it damaged?"
"Yes," Song Zhong nodded and said, "When I first picked it up, it was broken into several pieces. Although it was later combined, it was congenitally deficient. Even if I found a corner of the Great Dao left behind by Goddess Nuwa, it could not be completely repaired. In the end, it was completely restored with the help of the Jade Archive of Fate!"
"That's right!" The Queen Mother of the West said, "Then do you know how the Bell of Chaos was broken?"
As he heard that, SongZhong was stunned. He knew the power of the Bell of Chaos better than anyone else. At its peak, the Bell of Chaos could deal with a Saint like playing with a child. It might not be at a disadvantage even if it fought against several Supreme Artifacts. Even so, the Bell of Chaos was still broken.
All these years, Song Zhong had been unable to understand why the Bell of Chaos was broken. One had to know that the owner of the Bell of Chaos was the Donghuang Taiyi, who was an upright person. He did not offend anyone. At least, all the Saints in the Celestial World had a good relationship with him. They would not kill him.
However, there were only a few Supreme Artifacts. If the Saints in the Celestial World did not make a move, then how could the Bell of Chaos be broken? Who had such great ability?
Song Zhong had suspected the Buddhist League in the beginning because they had wanted to preach in the Celestial World but had been stopped by the Donghuang. They had a grudge with the Donghuang.
However, a Supreme Artifact of the Buddhist League was no match for the Bell of Chaos. How could it break the Bell of Chaos?
Therefore, Song Zhong had been very conflicted about this matter. He could not think of a reason why the Bell of Chaos was broken no matter how hard he racked his brains.
Now, the Queen Mother of the West had taken the initiative to mention this matter. Naturally, it attracted Song Zhong's attention.
Therefore, Song Zhong immediately asked impatiently, "Why? Do you know how the Bell of Chaos was broken? "
"Indeed!" The Queen Mother of the West nodded and then said seriously, "It was actually broken by the Buddhist League!"
"What?" As SongZhong heard that, he was startled and hurriedly said, "The Buddhist Sect only has a single supreme artifact, the World Creating Divine Lotus. Although that item is extremely powerful, it is not a match for the Bell of Primal Chaos!"
"Because other than the Supreme Artifact, the Genesis Divine Lotus, the Buddhist League also has three extremely powerful Blood Sacrifice Forbidden Artifacts that defy the heavens and destroy Dao!" The Queen Mother of the West said seriously. (To be continued. If you like this work, you are welcome to come to qidian.com to vote for me. Your support is my biggest motivation.)
