Grand Sorcerer Tianhao was the first to regain his senses. He roared with a trembling voice and called Houtu by her name. Obviously, he could not accept what Houtu had done.
Fortunately, the Twelve Ancient Grand Sorcerers were of the same origin. Although Houtu looked gloomy, she did not blame Grand Sorcerer Tianhao for calling her by her name.
"Although the Demon Clan has some grudges with my clan, they are still one of the living beings in the Three Realms. Today, I held the Grand Ceremony for the safety of the Three Realms. Since you are the Grand Sorcerer of the Sorcerer Tribe, how can you be so obsessed with persecuting fellow Daoists of the Demon Clan? Is it because I, Houtu, have become a Sage that gives you confidence?"
Houtu scolded coldly, which stunned the Sorcerer Tribe. Grand Sorcerer Tianhao was so angry that his face turned red. He looked at Houtu in disbelief.
"Cough … cough …!"
Just when everyone was in a daze, a violent cough was heard. Grand Sorcerer Xuan Ming struggled to get up. His body trembled slightly as he bowed to Houtu and said, "I have made a big mistake. Please calm down, Sage."
"Hmph!"
Houtu snorted coldly. "Today is the Grand Ceremony to discuss the strategy of mending the heavens. Let go of the so-called grudges. Otherwise, even though I am a member of the Sorcerer Tribe, I will act impartially and will not allow you to bully others."
Her righteous words and holy aura were displayed. This was Houtu's attitude, which made the Grand Sorcerer's expression change. They then bowed and retreated.
At this moment.
All the orthodoxies and Quasi-Sages looked at this scene in disbelief. They could not believe their eyes, and they could not believe Houtu's words.
Ever since Houtu became a Sage, the Sorcerer Tribe had risen strongly. The Demon Clan was the first to be suppressed, and the other orthodoxies had to retreat in the face of the Sorcerer Tribe. It was all because Houtu supported the Sorcerer Tribe. Why did she suddenly become selfless today?
Something was wrong!
These three words appeared in the minds of all the orthodoxies. They were not fools. If they could not see the problem, they would call themselves idiots.
It was him?
The various orthodoxies and Quasi-Saints were all shocked. They all gathered their gazes onto Ye Xuan, and their eyes were filled with extreme shock.
This matter was caused by this mysterious person. Even if Houtu was really selfless, this person ignored the Sage and had no respect for the Sage in his words. Not only did he not incur Houtu's anger, but he also made Houtu scold several Ancestors of Sorcery of the Wu Tribe. This was enough to show that this person was not simple.
Hiss!
Some people gasped in secret, and their expressions changed. Houtu's actions today also proved an extremely terrifying problem. The Houtu Saint actually scolded her own people for this person, which meant that this person's background was simply terrifying.
At this moment!
Houtu furrowed her brows and glared at the Ancestral Shamans. If it weren't for the presence of various orthodoxies, she would have scolded the Ancestral Shamans.
Previously, she had told the Ancestral Shamans that a great change was about to happen in the Heavenmender Festival. She also strongly urged them not to cause trouble in the Heavenmender Festival. However, these Ancestral Shamans still went to provoke Ye Xuan. Did this not put her and Ye Xuan on opposite sides?
Fortunately, she was the one who injured Ancestral Shaman Xuan Ming. If it was Ye Xuan who attacked, Ancestral Shaman Xuan Ming would not have survived. As a Sage, she had watched her own people die. If she did not seek justice from Ye Xuan, where would she put her face as a Sage?
The most dreadful thing for her was that Ye Xuan's appearance at the Heavenmender Festival clearly indicated that he wanted to settle the karma of the past with Nüwa, Yuanshi, and the others. A great battle was sure to erupt. She had just become a Sage and did not want to get involved in this dispute. She only wanted to stay out of it. This was the result she wanted.
She had lived for countless years and schemed for countless years to become a Sage. She cherished her position very much. If Ye Xuan didn't have a trump card, how could he dare to show up at the Heavenmender Festival?
Moreover, don't forget that the Grandmaster of Heaven was on good terms with Ye Xuan. This Heaven Mending Gathering was already out of her control, so she could only restrain the Shaman Clan and not have any conflicts with Ye Xuan.
"Fellow Daoist, please don't blame us. Our Shaman Tribe might be hot-tempered, but we are not unreasonable." Houtu smiled kindly at Ye Xuan, hinting that Ye Xuan and the Shaman Tribe did not want to get involved in this dispute.
"Xuan Ming, why don't you apologize quickly?"
Houtu's expression turned cold as she scolded Ye Xuan. Xuan Ming Ancestral Witch's face was filled with shame and anger, but he still bowed to Ye Xuan under Houtu's aggressive and secret voice transmission.
"Xuan Ming was rude to you before. Please forgive me." Xuan Ming Ancestral Witch apologized angrily, but unfortunately, he did not get any response from Ye Xuan.
At this moment.
A fairy child had already brought a new cloud table for Ye Xuan, and Ye Xuan sat calmly on it. He naturally understood Houtu's meaning, so he nodded slightly to her and did not say anything.
Seeing that Ye Xuan did not intend to pursue the matter, Houtu sighed and secretly warned the Shaman Tribe again. No matter what happened later, they were not allowed to get involved.
The Ancestral Witches were not fools. They finally felt that something was wrong. Obviously, even Houtu was extremely afraid of this mysterious person. This was not someone they could afford to offend.
Silence, silence, an eerie silence.
The entire Auspicious Cloud Banquet was extremely quiet. Although Houtu tried her best to hide her attitude towards Ye Xuan, everyone present was smart enough to see that Houtu treated Ye Xuan with caution.
The orthodoxies were bewildered because they suddenly realized an extremely terrifying thing. Houtu was a Saint. Besides the other Saints, who else in the Three Realms could make her feel afraid?
When everyone thought of this terrifying thing, they looked at Ye Xuan with a heavy gaze. A sense of uneasiness grew in their hearts, as if something terrible was going to happen at the Skymender Festival today.
Unfortunately.
Ye Xuan wasn't the slightest bit interested in the thoughts of the various orthodoxies. He continued to sit cross-legged in the middle of the Auspicious Cloud Banquet, while the two great Demon Emperors sneered as they looked around at the various orthodoxies. From time to time, they would fill Ye Xuan's wine, and their faces were brimming with excitement.
Rumble!
Thousands of auspicious clouds and the Heavenly Dao's sacred light filled the Auspicious Cloud Banquet. Just as the Auspicious Cloud Banquet fell into a strange atmosphere, the heavens and the earth began to flicker. A few majestic figures were walking towards the Auspicious Cloud Banquet from the edge of the starry sky.
In the vast expanse of time, the Saint's aura rumbled. Golden rain fell from the sky, and lotuses bloomed in the void. These were the signs of the Saints' arrival. The orthodoxies retracted their gazes from Ye Xuan and hurriedly got up to welcome the arrival of the Saints.
"Who dares to anger Junior Sister Houtu? How dare you provoke her personally?"
A chuckle came from the edge of the starry sky. Before the person arrived, the voice had already resounded throughout the Auspicious Cloud Banquet. A graceful and elegant figure slowly walked out from the depths of the starry sky. It was one of the Seven Saints, Queen Nüwa.
