Those who knew Ye Xuan knew that if Ye Xuan suddenly killed someone, it meant that Ye Xuan was not angry. However, if he suddenly appeared calm or smiled, it meant that he was ready to kill.
Fatso Huang, Gu Beichen, Kong Xuan, Empyrean Fairy, Sky-swallowing Toad and Roc Demon had followed Ye Xuan for a long time. They all knew Ye Xuan's temperament.
Donghuang Taiyi, Ancestor Minghe and the others had only followed Ye Xuan for a short period of time. Naturally, they did not know Ye Xuan's temperament. When Ye Xuan looked around at the members of the Celestial Court and asked such a question, many people thought that Ye Xuan intended to withdraw his order.
"Celestial Emperor, I'm afraid that it will be difficult for Ziwei to convince the masses. Why don't we discuss this later?" Emperor Jun hesitated and probed.
"Ziwei is still inexperienced. Celestial Emperor, please reconsider." Ancestor Minghe spoke at the right time.
As the saying goes, with Taishang Laojun taking the lead, there was a huge chain effect. For a moment, all kinds of pleading voices were heard.
There was no lack of Sage-to-be among these people. There were also many like Daluo Jinxian. They all bowed and reported to Ye Xuan, hoping that the candidate to become a Saint would be reconsidered.
"Celestial Emperor, Ziwei is unworthy of becoming a Saint. Please withdraw your order."
Ziwei Tian Di put away the Five-colored Holy Stone and returned with the Hong Meng Immortal Vapor. He respectfully presented the two treasures to Ye Xuan, his face flushed red.
At this moment, even Ziwei had refused. Obviously, he knew that it was difficult for him to convince the masses. However, no one saw that Kong Xuan, Fatso Huang and the others were anxious. Some of them wanted to stop him, but they were met with Ye Xuan's sharp warning gaze.
"Alright, Brother Ziwei, you may leave for now."
Ye Xuan said in a hoarse voice. He took the Five-Colored Divine Stone and Hong Meng Immortal Qi and placed the two treasures on the table. Then, he looked around at the crowd and said, "Since Ziwei is not the most suitable candidate to become a Saint, today, everyone, please tell us who is the most suitable candidate to become a Saint. If this person can convince the crowd, he will be the new Heavenly Path Saint."
Whoosh!
The sudden surprise caused an uproar in the Celestial Court. The entire Celestial Court suddenly became noisy. Many people thought that Ye Xuan had changed his mind and was preparing to appoint a new Saint. The opportunity to become a Saint was placed in front of everyone. Naturally, it caused a great deal of discussion.
"Does anyone have a suitable candidate?" Ye Xuan asked gently. He gave people a feeling of broad-mindedness and showed the fairness of the Celestial Emperor.
However, Ye Xuan's attitude caused Luo Hou, who was beside him, to slightly narrow his eyes. The corners of his eyes were slightly surprised as he swept his gaze over Ye Xuan. At this moment, Ye Xuan gave him an extremely strange feeling.
This feeling was indescribable. Luo Hou had an indescribable feeling. It was as if something had gone wrong, but he could not find the reason.
Everything that happened in the Celestial Court today could be said to be within Luo Hou's calculations.
Nüwa's attack on the Celestial Court was his method. He wanted to test Ye Xuan's cultivation. Ye Xuan really made him look at him with new eyes. With just a glance, he could see that Nüwa was only strong in appearance. Moreover, Ye Xuan was not defeated by Nüwa.
Now, Taishang Laojun was taking the lead to oppose Ye Xuan. This was also his second method. He wanted to divide the people in the Celestial Court and test Ye Xuan's scheming and methods.
A person's cultivation was indeed important. However, in the same situation, one's scheming and methods were still important. This was what Luo Hou valued. If Ye Xuan could not handle this situation well, Ye Xuan would not be qualified to be his opponent.
However, Ye Xuan was now amiable and did not show any anger. This made Luo Hou feel a little uneasy. He faintly felt that he had miscalculated something.
Just as Luo Hou was pondering, the people in the Celestial Court were discussing animatedly. In particular, some of the Sage-to-be present had a fiery look in their eyes. Obviously, the person who was going to become a Saint again had to be chosen from the Sage-to-be.
"Celestial Emperor, please enlighten me. I have a suitable candidate."
Suddenly, Ancestor Netherworld stepped out from the crowd and bowed to Ye Xuan.
"Tell me." Ye Xuan smiled.
"This man is Old Ancestor Nether River. He was ordered by the Heavenly Emperor to unify the Underworld. It can be said that he has made great contributions. Moreover, in terms of seniority, Nether River is also a respected figure. If he can become a Saint, he will definitely make the Heavenly Court prosper." Old Ancestor Nether River explained tirelessly. What he said was reasonable.
"Celestial Emperor, please appoint Ancestor Minghe as the Heavenly Sage." The Ten Yama Kings of the Nether World bowed and the Ghost Immortals of the Nether World hurriedly echoed.
"What a joke! How can Minghe be qualified to become a Saint?"
Suddenly, a cold rebuttal was heard. Emperor Jun strode out and bowed to Ye Xuan, "Celestial Emperor, please enlighten me. My elder brother, Donghuang Taiyi, led hundreds of millions of demons to help Celestial Emperor to unify the Three Realms. He even made hundreds of millions of demons under the command of the Celestial Court. If you want to become a Saint, of course my elder brother is Donghuang Taiyi."
"Emperor Jun, you are boasting shamelessly. How dare you look down on me?"
Nether River Patriarch had been smiling, but Emperor Jun suddenly stood out to oppose him. His smile instantly disappeared, and he flew into a rage.
Ancestor Minghe and Emperor Jun had no grudges against each other. Instead, they had a little friendship. However, in front of the Opportunity to become a Saint, they completely fell out and would never give in.
"Ridiculous! One is from the Nether World, and the other is from the Demon Tribe. How can they become the new Heavenly Sage?"
At this time, Wutian stepped out and bowed to Ye Xuan, "Celestial Emperor, please enlighten me. Not only has Taishang Laojun refined elixirs for the Celestial Court for many years, but he has also guarded the Celestial Court alone. He has made great contributions. If he becomes a Saint, he can only be Taishang Laojun."
"Nonsense! How can an old alchemist become a Saint?" Kunpeng scolded bluntly, showing no mercy at all.
"Kunpeng, how dare you insult me?" Taishang Laojun's face turned red and he shouted at Kunpeng.
"Insult you? What a joke. If an old alchemist like you can become a Saint, then I, Kun Peng, would also dare to recommend myself to the Heavenly Emperor. My contribution is no less than yours. "Kun Peng sneered.
For a moment, the whole Celestial Court was in chaos. A strong smell of gunpowder broke out. A large number of people stood out to recommend their candidate to become a Saint, which made the whole Celestial Court extremely noisy.
An opportunity to become a Saint had completely divided the Celestial Court and made people hostile to each other. This was also the means that Luo Hou had demonstrated.
It had to be said that Luo Hou had only used a little trick to create great trouble for Ye Xuan. At this moment, the Celestial Court was so noisy, which was simply something that had never happened before.
"Silence, you are too presumptuous."
Suddenly, Fatso Huang's face turned pale. He had followed Ye Xuan for the longest time and knew Ye Xuan's temperament the best. He was afraid that Ye Xuan was like a volcano that was about to erupt. If they were allowed to make trouble, he was afraid that something extremely bad would happen next.
Fatso Huang's voice was so loud that it instantly suppressed the noise. This also woke up the Celestial Court and they hurriedly bowed to Ye Xuan to apologize.
