"Jade Emperor, you can only blame yourself for being so stupid as to make an enemy out of Ye Tiandi. Although the Old Minister doesn't want to kill you, for the sake of the Old Minister's life, you can die now!"
Venus Taibai roared ferociously as he fell into madness. While the Jade Emperor was cursing him viciously, he controlled the Heavenly Book and instantly destroyed the Jade Emperor's Primordial Spirit.
It was over. Everything was over.
When Venus Taibai destroyed the Jade Emperor's Primordial Spirit with his own hands, the Jade Emperor's eyes were bitter and lifeless. He fell to the ground like a pile of mud, as if he had lost his soul.
"Not bad. You did well."
Ye Xuan smiled and patted Venus Taibai's shoulder affectionately. Then, he didn't look at him again.
From the beginning to the end, Ye Xuan's plan was flawless. He even nipped all the hidden dangers in the bud.
Ye Xuan was very confident that he could kill the Jade Emperor. However, he also understood that the Jade Emperor was the Master of the Three Realms after all. He was once the Daoist child of the Daoist Ancestor. He definitely had his own methods to protect himself.
Moreover, Ye Xuan knew the Jade Emperor very well. The Jade Emperor was a ruthless person. He was the best choice regardless of whether he was patient or shrewd. He would never put all of his eggs in one basket.
Immortals valued the Primordial Spirit the most. As long as the Primordial Spirit wasn't destroyed, there would be a chance to start over again. This was an iron law that had never changed. Even the Jade Emperor was no exception.
As expected, the Jade Emperor left himself a way out. He separated a trace of his Primordial Spirit and placed it in the Heavenly Book. Even if his Primordial Spirit was destroyed, as long as the trace of his Primordial Spirit in the Heavenly Book was still there, he would have a chance to revive.
Therefore, when Ye Xuan returned to the Celestial Court, he went straight to Venus Taibai. As Venus Taibai was the Jade Emperor's trusted aide, he was the only one who knew many of the Jade Emperor's secrets.
As expected, Ye Xuan made the right bet. Venus Taibai became Ye Xuan's most crucial chess piece. When he stole the Heavenly Book, he even captured the Jade Emperor's escaping Primordial Spirit under the guidance of his Primordial Spirit. This also caused the Jade Emperor to lose his last trump card. In the end, his soul dissipated and he died.
The Jade Emperor died with his eyes wide open. This was because his most trusted aide had dealt him a fatal blow, causing him to completely vanish from the Three Realms.
At this moment.
The immortals and Daluo were silent. No one dared to reprimand Ye Xuan for his actions because they had personally witnessed the tragic deaths of the Jade Emperor and Queen Mother. They knew that if they stood out now, they would be courting death.
Suppressing the heaven and earth, sweeping through the past and present — this was the feeling that Ye Xuan brought to the Immortals and Zenith Heavens.
In front of the Southern Heavenly Gate.
Ye Xuan had his hands behind his back. Three thousand strands of blood fluttered in the wind. An unimaginable majesty of a Celestial Emperor bloomed around him. His momentum had been established, and no one dared to reprimand him.
"The Feast of Peaches is held once every hundred thousand years. Although some very bad things have happened today, I do not wish for the Feast of the Three Realms to end so hastily. Would you all be willing to continue this unfinished Feast of Peaches with me?"
Ye Xuan said calmly. When he opened and closed his eyes, it was as if the stars in the heavens were rotating in his eyes. His suppressive aura swept towards the immortals and Zenith Heavens from all directions.
"Ah, ha … haha … Your Majesty has invited us … How would we dare to disobey?" Perfected Taiyi forced a laugh, but a hint of fear flashed across his eyes.
"Your Majesty, please." Chijingzi forced a laugh. How would he dare to complain?
The twelve ancient Golden Immortals, Daoist Ci Hang and Perfected Yu Ding had both died in the hands of Ye Xuan. Guang Chengzi had just been killed by Ye Xuan. This had already brought great fear to the twelve ancient Golden Immortals.
Now, the remaining few Golden Immortals deeply understood that their lineage of Chan had already offended Ye Xuan. If they dared to show any dissatisfaction at this moment, they were afraid that the twelve ancient Golden Immortals would fall in the hands of Ye Xuan today.
Not only the twelve ancient Golden Immortals, the Ten Kings of Hell, the Western Maitreya Buddha, and the others all lowered their eyes and did not make any sound. Although they would not flatter Ye Xuan, they would not curry favor with Ye Xuan either. This was because they represented various factions.
However, now that Ye Xuan's power had been established, they did not want to have a conflict with Ye Xuan, lest they be killed mercilessly by Ye Xuan.
This was because everyone knew that Ye Xuan was not a patient person like the Jade Emperor. In the eyes of such a ferocious person, he had never taken the various Great Orthodoxies seriously. If he had even a little bit of fear back then, how would he have killed the people of Spirited Mountain and Chan Sect?
Emotionless, sinister, and ruthless. If he wanted to kill someone, he would do so without the slightest scruple. This was the Ye Xuan in the eyes of the immortals and the various Great Luo Immortals. This caused them to be silent.
"It seems like none of you have any objections. Then, let's continue this Feast of Peaches that only happens once every hundred thousand years."
Ye Xuan smiled and strolled towards the Jade Pool. However, the corner of his mouth quietly curved into a cruel smile. Obviously, the Feast of Peaches would not be so simple.
The Jade Pool spanning a hundred thousand miles.
The female immortal officials were busy with various immortal arts. The shattered Jade Pool was restored to its original state in just a few dozen breaths. Thousands of white jade tables appeared. Many of the female immortal officials were pale, but they continued to serve immortal fruits and spirit wine. Then, they stood on both sides, trembling silently.
The so-called Peaches of Immortality were already eaten by the immortals and Zenith Heavens when they were presented. This so-called Feast of Peaches of Immortality seemed to be missing something. However, the immortals and Zenith Heavens did not have the mind to care about the Peaches of Immortality. At this moment, all of them were sitting upright and still. Clearly, Ye Xuan was giving them great pressure.
At the Celestial Emperor's throne at the center of the Jade Pool.
Ye Xuan sat on the Celestial Emperor's throne. He looked around at the immortals and Zenith Heavens present, and the Jade Pool, which was already dead silent, became even more oppressive.
"This Emperor would like to propose a toast to all of you."
Suddenly, Ye Xuan slowly raised his cup amidst the oppressive atmosphere and toasted the immortals from afar. He was the first to finish the immortal wine in his cup. The immortals forced a smile and drank the wine in their cups.
Whoosh!
Ye Xuan casually tossed the cup onto the Celestial Emperor's table and exhaled a turbid breath. He then looked around at the immortals present and said, "As the saying goes, the Celestial Emperor takes turns to sit on the throne. Today, it is my turn. This Emperor intends to do his best for the stability of the Three Realms. Today, I will become the Lord of the Three Realms.
Do any of you have any opinions? "As Ye Xuan spoke, the immortals of the Jade Pool fell silent. Although they already knew that Ye Xuan was going to bring this up, none of them dared to refute him. However, none of them stood out to agree either.
The Celestial Emperor's position was no small matter. It was not something that could be the Lord of the Three Realms just because one's cultivation was higher.
Firstly, the Celestial Emperor's position must be acknowledged by the Saints. Otherwise, the title would not be legitimate. Why would the various orthodoxies acknowledge Ye Xuan as Celestial Emperor?
Secondly, although the immortals appeared to be subservient, the most fundamental reason was that they were afraid of Ye Xuan. They were deeply afraid that they would die tragically in Ye Xuan's hands if they stood out to refute him.
Thirdly, there was no one from the third watershed of the Golden Immortal Realm present, so Ye Xuan was naturally allowed to speak as he pleased. Once they returned to their respective orthodoxies, there would naturally be someone from the third watershed of the Golden Immortal Realm to deal with Ye Xuan.
Fourthly, and also the most important matter, the Jade Emperor and Queen Mother were personally conferred by Dao Ancestor Hongjun. Now that they were killed by Ye Xuan, the Saints would definitely intervene. Ye Xuan would not be free for more than a few days. Perhaps it would not be long before Ye Xuan's body and Dao dissipated. Patience.
That was right. The immortals were enduring.
They knew that none of them could oppose Ye Xuan at this moment, but they would never express their approval either. They would naturally inform their orthodoxies of this shocking change once they left the Celestial Court.
PS: I've stayed up late to write this. One of the chapters is to make up for yesterday's.
Then, Fatso, I'd like to say something to the pirated readers.
If you want to read the pirated version, then read it silently. I'm only responsible for the original readers. Don't read the pirated version and come to my last chapter to compete with me, alright?
I'm getting less? My family is dead?
Can't you see your own fan value? Don't you know? You're scolding me for not updating enough after reading the pirated version? You're stealing the fruits of my labor and scolding me as you read, right? I'm your father. Do I owe you anything?
My book is almost five hundred thousand words on the shelves. The VIP version only has five hundred thousand words. Don't you know if an apprentice like you has read the pirated version?
I'm not discriminating against those who read the pirated version because there are students who don't have money. Fatso, I understand. Just read it silently. However, I hate it the most when I read the pirated version and read the original version. Can you be more shameless?
In addition, I'd like to say something to the original readers. You're my bread and butter. The money I earn to support my family depends on you. However, Fatso, I'll try my best to not let you down. However, I don't have enough energy sometimes. Furthermore, I can't sit in front of the computer all day long to write because I have my own matters to attend to.
I didn't go back on my words at the beginning of the month when I said I would update more. You can look at the chapters I update every day. I hope you can understand. Fatso, thank you.
