"Yes … Yes!"
The two Demonic Emperors were excited at first, but when Ye Xuan finished speaking, they were first stunned, then extremely disappointed, but still bowed to Ye Xuan.
"Styx! I'm relieved to have you in charge of the Underworld. In the future, you will assist the new Celestial Emperor. Don't let any turmoil happen in the Underworld, "Ye Xuan said softly.
"Old Minister Styx," Patriarch Styx smiled bitterly and hurriedly responded respectfully.
"Old Lord and Kunpeng will be the mainstays of the Celestial Court. In the future, they will be the right and left arms of the new Celestial Emperor. Only then can the Celestial Court prosper."
Ye Xuan looked at Old Lord Taishang and Kunpeng, which made them look at each other and hurriedly bowed to comply, not daring to show any dissatisfaction.
At this time, the entire Celestial Emperor Palace was extremely quiet. Ye Xuan called out their names one by one, seemingly to appease them, but in fact, he was secretly warning them not to be dissatisfied, which was also paving the way for the new Celestial Emperor.
Right now, there was only one person who hadn't been named by Ye Xuan, and that person was Mahamayuri Kong Xuan. He was also the person who had the deepest relationship with Ye Xuan, and the two of them even called each other brothers.
Everyone's eyes were burning with passion.
Everyone's eyes were on Kong Xuan, because at this time, no one was more qualified to become a Saint than Kong Xuan.
In terms of cultivation, Kong Xuan was at the peak of the Sage-to-be, and his talent was the Five-colored Holy Light.
In terms of seniority, Kong Xuan was a veteran of the Thirty-third Celestial Court.
In terms of friendship, Kong Xuan and Ye Xuan seemed to be monarch and vassal, but he called Ye Xuan his brother.
At this time, as long as one was not a fool, one could see that the new Celestial Emperor would definitely be Kong Xuan, and Kong Xuan was about to get the chance to become a Saint. He would also be the new Heavenly Saint.
However, what was strange was that Kong Xuan didn't have the slightest bit of excitement or joy. Instead, he calmly stood below Ye Xuan without revealing the slightest bit of emotion.
"Brother Kong."
"Celestial Emperor."
Kong Xuan strode out and solemnly bowed to Ye Xuan. "Kong Xuan already knows of the Heavenly Emperor's intentions. The Heavenly Emperor can rest assured that Kong Xuan will definitely assist the new Emperor. If anyone is unconvinced, they must first pass through me, Kong Xuan."
"I'm relieved with your words." Ye Xuan and Kong Xuan looked at each other and smiled. An image of the Immortal Conferment Ceremony appeared in their hearts at the same time.
Before the Immortal Conferring Ceremony.
Celestial Emperor Palace!
"It's him?" muttered Kong Xuan's, he could not believe his ears..
"In the past, he has shown great kindness to me, and even protected me with his life when I was weak. I, Ye Xuan, will never forget this kindness. Although I'm comparable to a Saint now, he has kept a distance from me and hidden among the immortals. But although his cultivation is not high, he has always silently protected me. How can I, Ye Xuan, forget his kindness?" Ye Xuan looked up at the sky and sighed.
"Without him, I wouldn't be who I am today. I hope Brother Kong can understand." Ye Xuan looked back at Kong Xuan.
"Brother Ye, you don't have to say anything. Although I, Kong Xuan, also covet the position of Saint, he deserves it. The new Celestial Emperor should be none other than him. If anyone dares to disobey him, they must go through me first," Kong Xuan said solemnly.
"It's difficult for people to accept him as the new Celestial Emperor, but he has become a Heavenly Saint. No one dares to say anything. Moreover, as long as I, Ye Xuan, am alive, who dares to disobey me?" muttered Ye Xuan coldly.
The scene reversed and returned to reality.
Kong Xuan expressed his loyalty to the new Celestial Emperor. The entire Celestial Emperor Palace was so silent that one could hear a pin drop. Everyone could not believe their ears.
"It's not Kong Xuan. It's not him?"
"How … how is this possible?"
"Besides Kong Xuan, who else is qualified to become a Saint and the new Celestial Emperor?"
After three breaths of time, the entire Celestial Emperor Palace was in an uproar. All kinds of surprised discussions could be heard. Everyone's eyes were focused on Ye Xuan. They did not know who Ye Xuan was going to appoint as the new Celestial Emperor.
"Silence."
Kong Xuan reprimanded coldly and suppressed all kinds of discussions. However, everyone was looking at Ye Xuan, waiting for him to announce the new Celestial Emperor.
Suddenly, the Empyrean Fairy stood up from her phoenix throne. No one knew when, but a golden decree had appeared in her hand. At this moment, it was unfurling in her hand.
Silence, silence, extreme silence.
When this scene appeared in front of everyone's eyes, they all breathed carefully because they knew that the decree that the Empyrean Fairy took out was to announce the new Celestial Emperor.
"Empress Ziwei, receive the decree!"
Boom!
It was as if the sky had collapsed and the earth had cracked. Just these four words from the Empyrean Fairy stunned everyone on the spot. It was as if their souls had left their bodies. Even though the Empyrean Fairy continued to read the decree in her hand, no one could hear what she was saying. The two words "Empress Ziwei" echoed in their minds. They could not recover from their shock.
Ten breaths later, the Empyrean Maiden of the Nine Heavens finally finished reading the celestial emperor's decree. She smiled at Empress Myrtlestar, who was hidden among the immortals.
"How can it be him?"
"Impossible, this is absolutely impossible. What right does a mere Daluo Jinxian have to become the new Celestial Emperor?"
"Empress Ziwei is merely a Grand Heavenly Immortal in the Celestial Court. There are more than ten thousand Grand Heavenly Immortals with such cultivation. Why is it him?"
A stone stirred up a thousand ripples. Various voices of disbelief and dissatisfaction rang out. Everyone's eyes were on Empress Ziwei.
Bewilderment, indignation, unwillingness, shock …
All sorts of emotions were born in everyone's eyes. Some were jealous, some were envious, but most were in disbelief. They felt as if they had fallen into a dream.
At this moment.
Empress Ziwei was stunned on the spot. It was as if her soul had left her body. She stood on the spot like a clay puppet and couldn't believe her ears. She couldn't recover for a long time.
In the past, Ye Xuan was still very weak when he first entered the Celestial Court. The Jade Emperor even wanted to kill Ye Xuan.
During the battle of the Celestial Court, Empress Ziwei and Ye Xuan hit it off at first sight. In order to save him, she almost lost her life in the Celestial Court. She had saved Ye Xuan's life countless times.
During the battle of the Celestial Court, she promised the ginseng fruit to King Chujiang just to help Ye Xuan survive the calamity. Yang Jian wasn't afraid of the power of Chan School in the battle and still stood firmly with Ye Xuan.
It could be said that when Ye Xuan was weak, if not for Empress Ziwei's help, he might have died long ago. Ye Xuan wouldn't be where he was today.
However, as time passed, Ye Xuan's cultivation level became stronger and stronger. Empress Ziwei gradually couldn't keep up with him. She watched as Ye Xuan grew day by day and finally became an existence comparable to a Saint. Empress Ziwei also hid among the immortals and quietly did something that she could.
How long has it been?
A hundred thousand years, right?
In Empress Ziwei's memory, she didn't seem to have spoken more than ten words to Ye Xuan in the past hundred thousand years. In her heart, perhaps Ye Xuan had long forgotten about her.
In the past hundred thousand years, Empress Ziwei was a little sad. She could no longer find the brotherly love she had with Ye Xuan. However, when she saw Ye Xuan grow step by step to today's level, Empress Ziwei was satisfied. This also proved that she hadn't misjudged him.
Today, in this immortal conferment ceremony.
Everyone had been conferred a title, but he had been left out. Empress Ziwei was a little sad, but she didn't care. It was just a title. Moreover, there were now more than ten thousand Daluo Jinxian in the Celestial Court. It wasn't strange that she, a mere Ziwei, was left out.
However, Empress Ziwei didn't expect that it wasn't that he was left out. It was that his title was the Celestial Emperor, and he was also the new Celestial Emperor. Ye Xuan had never really forgotten him.
At this moment.
Empress Ziwei's eyes were a little wet and her eyes were faintly red. He wasn't happy because he had become the new Celestial Emperor, nor was he happy because he was about to obtain the position of Saint. He was touched because Ye Xuan had never forgotten him. The tears in his eyes were tears of joy.
The kindness of a drop of water was repaid with a gushing spring.
Ye Xuan stood up from the Emperor's Throne and strode toward Empress Ziwei. There was a smile on his face, just like before. It had never changed.
"Big Brother, you are worthy of the position of Celestial Emperor. If you hadn't helped me in the past, I wouldn't be here today." Ye Xuan bowed three times, his voice extremely sincere.
Don't forget your original intentions, only then will you succeed!
These simple words were Ye Xuan's creed. He had never forgotten everything that Empress Ziwei had done for him. Today was the time for him, Ye Xuan, to repay her kindness.
