Time flew by like a shuttle.
In the blink of an eye, a thousand years had passed. Ye Xuan did not set off immediately because he still had some matters to deal with in the Celestial Court. Be it the Grand Supreme Elder or the mobilization of the Celestial Court, he had to make sure that nothing went wrong. Only by stabilizing the Celestial Court could he leave with peace of mind.
A thousand years later.
An earth-shattering piece of news spread. The Ancient Demon Court had reappeared in the world and would recreate the golden age of the demons in the past. Legend had it that Saint Nüwa was supporting them from behind. However, this rumor was groundless and could not be confirmed.
That was not the end. There was another piece of news that caused the Three Realms to tremble.
The Chan School announced to the Three Realms.
The immortals of the Chan School would enter the Ancient Demon Court and officially become its subjects. The Deputy Sect Master of the Chan School, the Old Man of the South Pole, would become an Imperial Lord of the Ancient Demon Court. At this moment, he had changed his honorific title and was called the Old Man of the South Pole.
When this news spread, the Three Realms was in an uproar. The entire world was shaken. A huge storm began to brew, causing the people of the Three Realms to panic. They knew that something terrifying would happen in the future.
The disciples of the Chan School and the Saint had all joined the Ancient Demon Court. This also proved that it was Yuanshi Tianzun's attitude.
However, don't forget that the disciples of the Jie School were members of the 33rd Heaven's Celestial Court. The two sects could be said to have a long grudge. This was openly standing on the opposite side of Ye Xuan.
Moreover, there could only be one Celestial Court in the world. This time, the appearance of the Ancient Demon Court and the addition of the Chan School undoubtedly proved that the Ancient Demon Court was the orthodox Celestial Court. There would definitely be a battle between the two Celestial Courts.
When this news spread to the 33rd Heaven's Celestial Court, the immortals of the Celestial Court were in a state of panic. However, Ye Xuan did not show any abnormalities, as if he had already expected this outcome.
In the Lingxiao Hall.
"Heavenly Emperor, the ancient Demon Court has reappeared in the world. The Chan School has joined in. I'm afraid …" Shen Gongbao said with a trembling voice. He wanted to say something but stopped.
Not only did Shen Gongbao look worried, but the immortals of the Celestial Court were also silent. Even the demon kings had complicated expressions on their faces. Obviously, they felt greatly threatened by this news.
Moreover, some Daemon Kings had complicated expressions in their eyes. After all, they were Daemons. If the Ancient Demon Court summoned them, it would be a huge problem whether they should go or not.
At this moment!
Ye Xuan walked down from the Emperor's Throne. He looked around at the Celestial Court and seemed to have guessed everyone's thoughts. However, Ye Xuan had already expected this outcome and did not say anything.
The Ancient Demon Court had dealt Ye Xuan a heavy blow. This blow seemed calm, but it had actually shaken the foundation of the Celestial Court.
That was because the Ancient Demon Court was the orthodox Daemons, and most of his subordinates were Daemon Kings from the lower realm. Only Shen Gongbao and the others were immortals of the Jie School.
At this moment, the Chan School had joined the Ancient Demon Court to fight against the rise of the Jie School. Apart from the immortals of the Jie School, the remaining Daemon Kings, except for the Sky-Devouring Toad and the others, were all his trusted aides. If he did not handle it well, there would be a huge change sooner or later.
After all, the Ancient Demon Court had reappeared in the world and represented the orthodox Daemons. They had even fought to recreate the golden age of the Daemons. How could these Daemon Kings not be moved?
Right now, the only thing Ye Xuan was gratified about was that Nuwa hadn't issued a decree yet. The billions of demons in the three realms were still watching from the sidelines. It was obvious that Xue Ji had contributed greatly to this.
"You don't have to worry. It's just the Ancient Demon Court. I have my own decision."
Ye Xuan spoke calmly without any abnormalities. This also calmed the immortals of the Celestial Court. Clearly, Ye Xuan was as important as a mountain in their hearts and was their spiritual pillar. As long as Ye Xuan did not fall, no one would dare to betray him.
"Immeasurable Heavenly Lord!"
Suddenly, a voice sounded in the Lingxiao Hall. Grand Supreme Elder quietly appeared beside Ye Xuan. He was wearing a purple-gold eight-trigram robe and was looking at everyone with a smile. Then, he bowed to Ye Xuan.
"Greetings, Celestial Emperor."
Such a sudden scene stunned the immortals of the Celestial Court. When they saw Grand Supreme Elder appear, everyone turned into clay puppets and did not recover for a long time.
"Grand … Grand Supreme Elder?"
Shen Gongbao growled in shock. He looked at Grand Supreme Elder with great shock. He never thought that the legendary figure would appear in the Celestial Court. At this moment, he even bowed to Ye Xuan like a subject.
Not only Shen Gongbao, but the other immortals and Daemon Kings were the same. They looked at Grand Supreme Elder with great surprise and a deep sense of respect.
There were too many legends about Grand Supreme Elder, but the most shocking one was that Grand Supreme Elder was the incarnation of the Sage Lao Tzu. How could they not have heard of this legend?
"From today onwards, Grand Supreme Elder will oversee the Celestial Court. If a great enemy invades, he will be able to suppress them." Ye Xuan looked around at the immortals of the Celestial Court and said calmly.
Hearing Ye Xuan's words, Shen Gongbao was the first to react. He looked at Ye Xuan with surprise and asked, "Celestial Emperor, are you leaving the Celestial Court?"
Unfortunately, Ye Xuan did not answer this question. Instead, he strolled out of the Lingxiao Hall. This made the immortals of the Celestial Court not dare to ask more.
…
In the Bullfighting Palace.
Ye Xuan was dressed in black. A door opened in front of him. It was the door to the Lower World. The Empyrean Fairy stood beside him and looked at him worriedly.
"Are you really leaving?" The Empyrean Fairy bit her lips and asked.
"I walk the path of cultivation through strength. If I don't become a Sage-to-be, I won't be able to fight against many great enemies. I'll have to trouble you while I'm away."
Ye Xuan stroked the Empyrean Fairy's hair bun. Since he returned to the Celestial Court, the two of them had not been together. Now that he was leaving, the Empyrean Fairy felt guilty.
"Ye Xuan, you must remember that I'm your wife. I'll always wait for your return in the Celestial Court. You must come back alive to see me."
The Empyrean Fairy suddenly smiled. She gently leaned her head into Ye Xuan's arms, but a touch of moisture wet Ye Xuan's chest. This made Ye Xuan slightly startled, and a complicated look appeared in his eyes.
"Okay, go quickly. I'll wait for you to come back."
Suddenly, the Empyrean Fairy pushed Ye Xuan away and quickly turned around. She didn't want to look at Ye Xuan again, but her face was full of tears. She clearly didn't want Ye Xuan to see her cry.
"Take care!"
Ye Xuan took a deep breath and suddenly entered the door of light. As the door closed with a rumble, Ye Xuan also disappeared from the Bullfighting Palace.
With Ye Xuan's departure, the Empyrean Fairy slowly turned around. Her face was full of tears. She stared blankly at the place where Ye Xuan disappeared, and her voice echoed in the Bullfighting Palace.
"No matter what happens in the future, I'll always be your wife. You must come back alive to see me!"
A wisp of emotion, a wisp of hidden bitterness, and even a deep expectation could not express the Empyrean Fairy's feelings for Ye Xuan.
