"Xian … A Worthy Younger Brother!"
Empress Myrtlestar's eyes were red as he stared blankly at Ye Xuan. He had a lot of good things to say in his heart, but he only spat out these two words when they reached his mouth.
"Elder Brother, please."
Ye Xuan smiled and pulled Emperor Ziwei toward the throne in the center. The Empyrean Fairy also bowed, greeting Emperor Ziwei like Ye Xuan did.
"A Worthy Younger Brother, please don't."
Suddenly, before Ye Xuan could push Emperor Ziwei onto the throne, Emperor Ziwei came to his senses and anxiously pushed Ye Xuan away. He even bowed to Ye Xuan.
"Celestial Emperor, Ziwei appreciates your kindness, but I can't accept the position of Celestial Emperor. Please retract your order."
Empress Myrtlestar was just too touched, so she allowed Ye Xuan to pull her to the Emperor's Throne. However, now that he's gradually calmed down, it's impossible for him to accept the position of Heavenly Emperor that Ye Xuan bestowed upon him.
The reason was simple.
What did Ziwei do to deserve it? What right did he have to sit on the throne?
In terms of cultivation, he was only at the second stage of the Grand Heavenly Realm. He wasn't even at the peak of the Grand Heavenly Realm. There were more than ten thousand people in the Celestial Court who were at his level of cultivation. Even a lowly Celestial Inspector might be stronger than him.
In terms of merits, he didn't have any. He couldn't even compare to some of Ye Xuan's Monster Kings.
If there was anything outstanding about him, it would be that when Ye Xuan was weak, he risked his life to help Ye Xuan and never left him.
Although Zi Wei knew that with his relationship with Ye Xuan, he could definitely sit in this position. However, one had to know their own limits. With just Zi Wei alone, he wouldn't be able to convince anyone. If he really sat in the position of Heavenly Emperor, everyone would probably be convinced.
"Elder Brother, you don't have to be modest. Only you have the right to sit on the throne. If anyone dares to disagree, they can speak up."
Ye Xuan seemed to be talking to Empress Myrtlestar, but his eyes were looking at everyone present. This caused the expressions of the members of the Heavenly Court to change slightly, and all of them revealed forced smiles.
Ye Xuan's power was too terrifying and too invincible. No one dared to show the slightest dissatisfaction because no one dared to defy Ye Xuan's will. This was a fact that the Celestial Court was an iron-clad fact.
"Minister Kong Xuan pays his respects to Ziwei Tian Di."
Suddenly, Kong Xuan waved his sleeve and bowed to Emperor Ziwei. This made the others quickly come to their senses. They followed Kong Xuan's example and paid their respects to the new Celestial Emperor.
"Minister East Emperor Jun pays his respects to Ziwei Tian Di."
"Minghe pays his respects to the Celestial Emperor."
"Minister pays his respects to Your Majesty."
Their voices reverberated in all directions. The Celestial Court members bowed to pay their respects. No matter what they thought, Ye Xuan had already designated Emperor Ziwei as the new Celestial Emperor. They had to show their allegiance. Otherwise, it would be a slap to Ye Xuan's face. No one dared to do such a thing.
"Elder Brother, this throne is yours. Just sit down and relax."
Ye Xuan smiled. Without waiting for Emperor Ziwei's response, he directly pressed Emperor Ziwei onto the throne. The Celestial Court members below him cheered again. They were all chanting Ziwei's name.
"A Worthy Younger Brother … I …!"
Without waiting for Ziwei to speak, Ye Xuan secretly transmitted his voice. "Elder Brother, don't worry. I have my own plans. The Celestial Emperor's throne belongs to you. Don't refuse it."
Upon hearing Ye Xuan's words, Emperor Ziwei secretly sighed and did not refuse. However, he felt very uncomfortable sitting on the Celestial Emperor's throne. Moreover, the cultivation of the people below him was much stronger than him. This made Ziwei feel slightly uneasy.
"The ascension of a new Celestial Emperor is a major event for the Celestial Court. We have to announce to the Three Realms that we will hold the ascension ceremony. Celestial Emperor, please choose an auspicious date." Venus Taibai bowed to Ye Xuan.
Ye Xuan did not care much about these complicated formalities. However, Venus Taibai was right. He had given the throne to Emperor Ziwei. This was a major event for the Three Realms. It was impossible for Ziwei to become the Celestial Emperor with just a few words from him. They still had to hold the ascension ceremony and announce this matter to the Three Realms.
"Then let's set it on …"
"Report!"
Suddenly, before Ye Xuan could set an auspicious date, a celestial general rushed into the Celestial Emperor Palace. He looked anxious, as if something major had happened.
"How dare you!"
Venus Taibai frowned. He looked at the celestial general with great displeasure. Ye Xuan was discussing the ascension of a new Celestial Emperor, but the celestial general just had to interrupt. Venus Taibai naturally scolded him.
"Please forgive me, Celestial Emperor. I have something to report."
The celestial general's expression changed slightly. He hurriedly apologized to Ye Xuan, but his expression was very anxious. This made Ye Xuan frown. "It's fine. What do you have to report?"
"The Demon Ancestor's disciple is outside the Southern Heaven Gate. He says he has come on the Demon Ancestor's orders to see you, Your Majesty," the celestial general quickly reported.
"Hiss!"
As soon as he finished speaking, the sound of gasps came from everywhere. The entire Celestial Emperor Palace suddenly fell silent. Clearly, the words "Demon Ancestor" were too heavy. Even the people present were very surprised.
"Celestial Emperor, the Demon Ancestor is the ancestor of all demons. Legend has it that he is one of the Demon Gods of Chaos. When the world was first created, he fought the ancestor Hong Jun. Although he was defeated and fled in the end, his cultivation is shocking." Donghuang Taiyi stepped forward and reported to Ye Xuan.
"This Luo Hou created the Demon World. He has been hiding there for countless years. Now that he has sent his disciple, I'm afraid he has ill intentions," Patriarch Styx said.
As the two of them finished speaking, all kinds of comments were made. Clearly, the Demon Ancestor Luo Hou had sent his disciple to the Celestial Court. This made the people of the Celestial Court puzzled. They did not know what Luo Hou wanted to do.
Of course, with the current power of the 33rd Celestial Court, no matter how strong Luo Hou was, the people of the Celestial Court did not think too much of him. Not to mention the two great arrays of heaven and earth, just Ye Xuan's cultivation, which was comparable to a Saint, was enough to not fear Luo Hou.
Of course, no one knew that Luo Hou's real cultivation was comparable to Daode Tianzun and Lao Tzu. He was definitely an extremely terrifying figure. Moreover, Luo Hou's real terror was not his cultivation, but his shrewdness and wisdom.
"The Demon Ancestor Luo Hou?"
Ye Xuan frowned and murmured. A smile appeared at the corner of his mouth. He looked at the Celestial General and said, "Summon the Demon Ancestor's disciple."
"Yes, Your Majesty."
The Celestial General walked away quickly. Obviously, he was going to summon the Demon Ancestor's disciple to the Celestial Emperor Palace.
Soon, a short time had passed. A series of footsteps came from outside the Celestial Emperor Palace. Gu Beichen was strolling into the Celestial Emperor Palace under the guidance of the Celestial General.
"The Demon Ancestor's disciple Gu Ruochen greets Ye Tiandi."
Gu Beichen was dressed in black. The scar on his face was unusually conspicuous. He greeted Ye Xuan in a manner that was neither servile nor overbearing.
"Sage-to-be? This person is actually a Sage-to-be? "Emperor Jun whispered in surprise. He looked at Gu Beichen seriously and kept examining his cultivation.
"The Demon Ancestor Luo Hou's disciple is a Sage-to-be. I'm afraid this Luo Hou's cultivation is unfathomable," Patriarch Styx said seriously.
