(PS: There was a mistake in the previous chapter. The Perfected Lord of the Qingyuan Dao was read too smoothly. It was written as the Perfected Lord of the Qingyuan Dao.)
…
"Jian 'er, don't move, don't move …"
Yohime was extremely nervous. She hugged Yang Jian tightly and did not dare to let go.
Yang Jian's eyes were a little blank. His weak spiritual senses spread out and he heaved a sigh of relief when he saw the situation around him.
The moment he relaxed, he immediately noticed the gentle touch on his face.
Yang Jian's face was a little red. Perhaps Yohime did not mind, but he still felt a little bothered.
It was really … a little too close …
"Mother, let me get up first."
Yang Jian coughed twice. Yohime hurriedly let go of Yang Jian and helped Yang Jian to sit up.
Venus Taibai walked forward and bowed to Yang Jian. "Congratulations, Perfected Lord. The Saint has issued a decree to bestow you the title of Qingyuan Dao. The Jade Emperor has decreed that if you enter the Celestial Court as a general, you can lead troops and not be subject to too many restrictions. "
Yang Jian was silent. Some Xuanqi surged out of his body and slowly repaired his body.
He said, "Which Saint gave the decree?"
He had really fainted just now.
Venus Taibai cupped his hands and said, "It's the Grand Pure One."
"Oh?" Yang Jian heaved a sigh of relief. Although his calf was still in pain, he could already stand up slowly.
He put away the Mountain-Splitting Axe and the spearless spear that he was pressing down on. There was no need to use force now. It was time to deal with the aftermath.
He first bowed to the sky and bowed from afar. He said, "Thank you for your protection, Saint." Then, he cupped his hands in the direction of the Lingxiao Treasure Hall and turned to look at Venus Taibai.
Venus Taibai hurriedly said, "It was also written in the decree of the Grand Pure One to let you enter the Celestial Court as a general."
"May I borrow the Sage's decree to take a look?"
"Of course." Venus Taibai took out the imperial edict from her sleeve and handed it to Yang Jian. Yang Jian read it and frowned.
Although there was a lot of content in this decree, wasn't the choice of words a little too casual? It was as if he was a young man, saying it carelessly and directly.
Of course, he didn't dare to question the Sage's will. He just assumed that he couldn't comprehend the Sage's intent.
Looking at the sentence 'If the Celestial Court were to punish us, the people of the Dao Sect must not act rashly', Yang Jian felt a little relieved.
The Sage had bestowed the title upon him and made him the Protector of Taoism, the Perfected Lord of Purity and Magic. He had also handed him over to the Jade Emperor to deal with. The meaning was self-evident.
Naturally, the Jade Emperor did not dare to punish him. That would directly embarrass the Sage. Other than letting him enter the Celestial Court as a general, there was no other way.
He had put in a lot of effort.
Yang Jian felt more grateful to the Grand Pure One, who he had never met before. He looked at Venus Taibai and asked directly, "Where does the Jade Emperor want to send me?"
"Perfected Lord, why do you say that? Where do you want to go? " Venus Taibai cupped his hands. "The Jade Emperor has personally said that you can choose a place to station your troops. The twelve youths from before are still waiting outside the Central Heavenly Gate. These twelve people are loyal to you. They can also be included in the ranks of the Heavenly Generals of the Celestial Court."
Yang Jian frowned and shook his head. He said, "I've already entered the Celestial Court. There's no need for them."
Venus Taibai pondered for a while and said, "Perfected Lord, Yang Jian, I have something to say. A minister has his ways, and a ruler has his ways. If you recruit a private army in the future and threaten the safety of the Heavenly Courts … "
"You're thinking too much, Lord Taibai Jinxing." Yang Jian smiled. His injuries had almost recovered, but he felt weak all over his body.
Yang Jian said, "I only have a few thousand guards at most to protect my mother and sister. If the Celestial Court wants to fight, as long as the general orders me, I will naturally bring troops to fight. "
Venus Taibai finally smiled.
A few thousand private soldiers were still in the open. Compared to the trusted aides that the Divine Generals had nurtured in their respective armies today, they were really nothing.
"In that case, I will report to His Majesty. Don't worry, Perfected Lord."
Yang Jian did not want to delay any longer in the Celestial Court. He asked directly, "How do I choose the place to station the troops?"
"Follow me. There is a numinous treasure in the Sky Martial Pavilion of the Hall of Enlightenment. It can manifest the various places where the Celestial Court needs to station troops."
Venus Taibai did not procrastinate this time. He set up a white cloud and carried the family of three towards the Hall of Enlightenment.
The Dragon Kings of the Four Seas and the Yama Kings of the Ten Halls had left at some point in time. Ao Xinke and Ao Ji had also disappeared. Yang Jian did not have the chance to thank the "seniors" who had pleaded for him.
The Dragon King's appearance was within Yang Jian's expectations. However, the Yama Kings of the Ten Halls had touched the string in Yang Jian's heart …
Did the Lady of Earth ask them to come?
At that time, he was fighting bitterly, but he could not even greet them. He could not ask how the Lady of Earth was doing.
"This way, please." Venus Taibai guided Yang Jian and the other two along the way. Yohime also answered a few questions on Yang Jian's behalf. She did not forget her etiquette.
At that moment, Yohime was very vigilant. She was afraid that this was a trap set up by the Celestial Court. She did not leave Yang Jian's side and deliberately pulled Yang Jian and Venus Taibai away.
Venus Taibai saw that and only sighed softly and shook her head. She did not explain anything.
The Jade Emperor had yet to issue a decree to reward them, but he would definitely reward Yohime and Yang Xiaochan. However, looking at Yohime's vigilant appearance, she no longer had any trust in the Celestial Court …
"Your Highness, you have escaped today. Your son has entered the court as a general and is highly regarded by His Majesty. Why don't we go to my residence later?"
"There's no need to nag, Lord Taibai Jinxing," Yohime said gently. "My son is weak now, and I'm a little tired. When my son recovers in the future, I will prepare a gift and visit you. "
Venus Taibai smiled and nodded. He did not invite further.
Along the way, Yang Jian saw the ruins of some palaces and many collapsed immortal mountains. His expression was a little gloomy.
Yohime and Yang Xiaochan supported Yang Jian on the left and right. Venus Taibai led the way in front, but he sent a voice transmission to Yang Jian. "Do you feel guilty?"
"It implicated many innocent people."
"Everything in the world is destined. Fate comes and goes because of fate." Perfected Taiyi sang a warning and said, "What you see is not what you see, and what you say is not what you say. In the future, you might be able to understand what happened today. Don't think too much about it now."
The voice transmission between the two of them did not go through the HexaEar. Yang Jian nodded when he heard that and suppressed the doubts in his heart.
He actually could not understand why the Jade Emperor wanted to embed the Peach Mountain into the Sealing Array of the Celestial Court …
Shaking his head and smiling bitterly, Yang Jian still felt that he had been tricked. That feeling was indescribable, but it made him feel a little depressed.
After passing the third heaven, they flew towards the majestic Lingxiao Palace.
The Hall of Enlightenment was below the Lingxiao Palace. It was a continuous group of palaces. There were at least a hundred of them. It was the place where the immortals of the Celestial Court were on duty.
The decisions made by the Lingxiao Palace had to be implemented and implemented in the Hall of Enlightenment. It was like the Minister Pavilion in the secular world.
Seeing that Venus Taibai had brought Yang Jian here, the Heavenly Soldiers and Heavenly Generals who had just returned all avoided them. They did not stop them, nor did they dare to glare at them angrily. No one went forward to flatter them.
These Heavenly Soldiers and Heavenly Generals still had the dignity of cultivators and the courage of men.
"Perfected Immortal, this way please."
"Thank you."
Venus Taibai brought Yang Jian into a magnificent hall. There was a murderous aura in the hall, as if it was suppressing many murderous weapons.
Yang Jian had already recovered some strength. He struggled a little and said, "Mother, Xiao Chan, wait here first. I'll be back soon."
"San 'er," Yohime grabbed Yang Jian's arm and whispered, "Mother is worried about you."
Venus Taibai smiled and said, "Your Highness is not an outsider. Just come in together."
Since that was the case, Yang Jian could only nod and agree. The family of three entered the Sky Martial Pavilion.
That was the place where the generals of the Celestial Court gathered to discuss matters. Most of the strategies and military strategies of the Celestial Court came from there.
Perhaps they knew that Yang Jian was coming. Other than the Heavenly Soldiers stationed at the periphery, there was not a single Heavenly General …
They walked all the way to the pond in the middle of the Sky Martial Pavilion. Taibai Jinxing flicked his horsetail whisk, and white mist rose from the surface of the pond. Within the white mist, a magnificent scene slowly appeared!
The Primordial World, which was like a four-petal lotus, the 33 Heavens that floated above the Primordial World, and the boundless four seas outside the five continents!
Was this the Primordial World?
The huge Celestial Court was only a tiny place compared to the five continents of the Primordial World!
Yang Jian did not even dare to think about how vast the Primordial World, which had not been destroyed by the dragons and phoenixes in ancient times, was.
Venus Taibai smiled and said, "Perfected Lord, you don't have to think about garrisons outside the five continents."
Yang Jian nodded and casually pointed at the clouds. The scene he pointed at quickly enlarged. A mountain range that looked like a dragon appeared in front of Yang Jian.
This should be a place where the dragon vein gathered. However, this mountain range was cut off by a large river. In terms of Fengshui, it was not a good place to go.
"Where is this? Are there any garrisons? "
He had chosen the place so easily.
Venus Taibai pondered for a while and said, "There are no garrisons here, but it is a dangerous place. Demons are entrenched there, and humans rarely step foot there."
"Oh? Where is it? "
"It happens to be at the intersection of the North Continent, the Middle Continent, and the Aparagodānīya Continent. It's called Plum Mountain." Venus Taibai stroked his beard and smiled. "Actually, you don't have to always look at the ground. There are many immortal mountains floating around the Celestial Court. It's a good place to cultivate."
Yang Jian did not hear what Venus Taibai said after that.
Plum Mountain?
Could this be fate? With a casual point, he had pointed out the location of the Eight Freaks of Plum Mountain and the Six Friends of Plum Mountain. If Plum Mountain was designated as the area under his "jurisdiction", it might be convenient for him to do things in the future.
As for the Guan River Estuary that he was supposed to go to … Yang Jian did not think too much about it.
"Let's go here," Yang Jian said firmly. Venus Taibai wanted to say something but hesitated. He could only nod and agree.
"In that case, Perfected Lord and Your Highness, please rest here. I'll go and ask His Majesty for a decree."
