Boom!
Taibai Jinxing stood stiffly on the ground like a clay sculpture. However, his body was trembling slightly, and the arrogance in his eyes had disappeared without a trace. All that was left was endless fear and shock.
"Celestial … Celestial Master?"
Plop!
Under the horrified gaze of the two golden-armored Heavenly Generals, Venus Taibai knelt down and kowtowed to Ye Xuan excitedly, shouting the name of Celestial Master.
"Taibai Sage-to-be, you … you are …?"
The two golden-armored Heavenly Generals were at a loss and could not believe what they had just seen. Taibai Sage-to-be was kneeling to an unknown person. This was simply a fantasy.
Although Taibai Sage-to-be's cultivation was not top-notch in the Celestial Court, his seniority and seniority were almost unmatched. Even he did not need to kneel when he saw the Empress.
"Kneel, quickly kneel and pay respects to Holy Ancestor Celestial Master."
The next moment, Venus Taibai scolded with a flushed face, startling the two golden-armored Heavenly Generals. Although they hurriedly knelt down, they were still in a state of confusion.
"Holy Ancestor Celestial Master?"
Ye Xuan was slightly stunned, and then a touch of understanding flashed across his eyes. It seemed that this title was given to him by the people of the Celestial Court after he left the Untainted Land.
"Get up."
Ye Xuan did not care about the red tape. Moreover, he only came back to see an old friend and did not want to waste too much time because of these red tape.
"Celestial Master, Old Minister missed you so much. You left for millions of years. Old Minister could not sleep day and night and wished that he could leave with you. Now I regret it so much."
At this moment, Venus Taibai no longer had the demeanor of a Sage-to-be. He was completely flattering and fawning. He came to Ye Xuan with snot and tears running down his face. His words were full of sorrow and sincerity.
"That's enough. Wipe your tears away."
Ye Xuan frowned slightly, and a touch of helplessness flashed through his eyes. Taibai Jinxing was still as eloquent as before. He used to be his henchman in the Celestial Court, and now he had returned to his former self.
However, Ye Xuan also liked people like Venus Taibai. This was because Venus Taibai was someone who knew how to adapt to the situation. If Venus Taibai hadn't betrayed the Jade Emperor back then, it would have been quite troublesome for him to kill the Jade Emperor.
Looking at Ye Xuan's furrowed brows, Venus Taibai smiled awkwardly, then hurriedly led the way for Ye Xuan. She even put on a fawning appearance.
Looking at Venus Taibai's servile attitude, the two golden-armored Heavenly Generals were stunned speechless. This was not the high and mighty Sage-to-be Venus Taibai. At this moment, he was even inferior to the Heavenly Generals who guarded the gate.
However, the two golden-armored Heavenly Generals looked at each other, and a touch of fear flashed through their eyes. Someone who could make Sage-to-be Venus Taibai bow to her must have an unimaginable background.
Thirty-three Levels of Heaven!
Ye Xuan strolled on the rainbow bridge as if he was taking a leisurely stroll in the courtyard. There were celestial islands and pavilions as far as the eye could see. There were even red-crowned cranes flying by on both sides of the rainbow bridge. It gave the Celestial Court a sense of stability and prosperity.
"The past is like smoke, passing day and night. I didn't expect that after millions of years, the Celestial Court would still be the same as before I left. Not much has changed," Ye Xuan whispered softly.
"You may not know, Celestial Master, but after you left, Celestial Emperor Kong Xuan issued a decree that no one was to damage the Celestial Court. This was so that when you returned one day, you would still be able to see the Celestial Court in the past," Venus Taibai hurriedly reported.
"Brother Kong Xuan is very considerate. May I know where he is now, and who is Empress Qing Xuan?" Ye Xuan asked.
"Celestial Emperor Kong Xuan has been in seclusion for many years. As for Empress Qing Xuan …" Venus Taibai looked strangely at Ye Xuan, and did not continue speaking.
With Ye Xuan's intelligence, how could he not feel the coldness in Venus Taibai's eyes? This made him slightly startled, and he asked, "Is this person related to me?"
"Celestial Master, you really don't remember?" Venus Taibai smiled bitterly.
Ye Xuan's memory could be said to be very good. Even after millions of years, he could still remember what happened in the past. However, he really could not remember how he was related to Empress Qing Xuan.
Looking at Ye Xuan's frown, Venus Taibai knew that Ye Xuan really could not remember. This made him want to explain the whole story, but a rainbow bridge had already spread out from the Celestial Emperor Palace, and eighty-one bells rang throughout the Celestial Court.
"Disciple Qing Xuan welcomes teacher back to the Celestial Court."
Rumble!
Countless immortal lights shot out from the Heavenly Emperor Palace as a large number of immortals rushed over from all directions. They saw an azure-clothed woman with a peerless appearance leading the immortals of the Heavenly Court towards Ye Xuan.
"Welcome back to the Celestial Court, Celestial Master Saintly Ancestor."
The Celestial Court was shaken. When Ye Xuan returned to the Celestial Court, Venus Taibai had already sent the news to the Celestial Emperor Palace. This also made Empress Qing Xuan lead the Celestial Court immortal demon kings to welcome him.
"You are …?"
Looking at the woman in green, Ye Xuan vaguely felt that she was somewhat familiar, and then suddenly understood.
"You are that little girl from back then?"
Ye Xuan said with a smile. He finally remembered that when he returned to the Untainted Land, he had taken a little girl as his disciple, and even taught her some dharma. It was only because the little girl was very similar to Gu Xiaoxiao that he felt compassion for her.
He did not expect that now, millions of years later, the disciple he casually took in back then would now become the master of the Celestial Court. No wonder he could not remember this person at first.
"Teacher!"
The little girl from back then had grown up, and her face no longer had that immature look. She knelt at the feet of Ye Xuan, and sincerely kowtowed three times to Ye Xuan.
"If teacher did not nurture me back then, there would not be Qing Xuan today. Disciple kowtows to you."
"Good, good, good."
Ye Xuan said the word "good" three times in a row. Only then did Gu Qingxuan get up, but she was obviously very uneasy. This was because although she was Ye Xuan's disciple in name, the two of them did not have much interaction.
Moreover, Gu Qingxuan would never forget how terrifying her teacher was back then. The so-called Sage-to-be and Heavenly Path Sages all died tragically in his hands. This was something she had seen with her own eyes.
"Heavenly Lord!"
The demonic wind of heaven and earth blew, and a dozen figures appeared in front of Ye Xuan in an instant, and then with a plop, they knelt on the ground. They were the Sky-swallowing Toad and the others who had followed Ye Xuan before.
Not only these old Demon Kings, but in the next moment, the immortals of the Jie Sect also arrived in an instant. The leader was Shen Gongbao, who had not been seen for a long time, and many other old immortals of the Jie Sect.
They had not seen Ye Xuan for millions of years. When these people saw him, they all knelt on the ground, and some even cried excitedly. Suddenly, the whole Celestial Court became extremely noisy.
Looking at the Demon Kings and Immortals who used to be his subordinates, Ye Xuan was also very emotional. He reminisced about the past with them one by one, while Empress Qingxuan and the other immortals carefully accompanied him, and even their breathing was very careful.
It should be known that these Demon Kings and Immortals were all Sage-to-be. They were the old antiques of the Celestial Court, and had not been seen in the world for millions of years. Unexpectedly, they all came out of their own dojos today to welcome the Holy Ancestor Heavenly Lord.
