Primordial World: Big shots are all my friends-Chapter 384 - 339: The Four Imperial Return to Their Positions (Congratulations for the Grand Reward)
Chapter 384: Chapter 339: The Four Imperial Return to Their Positions (Congratulations for the Grand Reward)
Jiang Ziya, in a state of panic, contemplated a thought—should he come clean to his senior brothers and await their judgment?
No, that won’t do; they might kill me! When faced with trouble, I cannot sit and wait for death. I must seek my own salvation. But where should I go now? Maybe I should seek help from my master? But the master has gone to the Chaos! A place flashes through his mind unconsciously—Kunlun Mountain. Although my master has left, Kunlun Mountain is still the location of his Taoist practice ground. On my master’s territory, they wouldn’t dare to kill me, right?
Jiang Ziya made up his mind and, with respect, bowed to the four directions, putting on a smile and said, "Senior brothers, please wait a moment, I will go now!"
After bowing, he packed up the Sealing God Platform, turned into a yellow smoke, entered the ground, and rapidly escaped towards Kunlun Mountain using the earth-escaping technique.
...
On the other side, all gods returned to Heavenly Court. In the Palace of the Polestar, Emperor Haotian and the Queen Mother of Yaochi sat at the main seats, exuding awe and grandeur.
Below, all gods bowed and saluted in unison, a grand voice arose: "Praise to the Heavenly Emperor, praise to the Queen Mother of Yaochi."
Emperor Haotian raised his hand, commanding with dignity, "My beloved subjects, rise!"
The gods stood up, lining up on both sides.
Inside the Palace of the Polestar, numerous Jie Sect Disciples had also resigned to their fate. Although they had fallen and were listed for sealing, and must obey the orders of Heavenly Court, they were spared from death, bestowed upon with precious commandments, forever in charge of heaven’s silk threads.
The most important thing was that they had finally escaped the Law Enforcement Team. No longer would they have to live in fear, now becoming deities, worshipped by all beings, free to do whatever they desired. Eh~ upon reflection, this might not be a bad thing after all.
Many deities revealed smiles, secretly proud within their hearts. When they became deities in the future, worshiped by their followers, manipulating heaven and earth with their divine might, they would definitely take the opportunity to show off in front of the former Law Enforcement Team.
A humming sound resonated from outside the Palace of the Polestar, and within the reverberations, several figures appeared: Bai Jin, Immortal Elder of the Southern Pole, Taiyi True Man, and Bo Yikao.
The four landed before the great hall and entered the Palace of the Polestar. All gods turned their heads to look as they saw Bai Jin, and couldn’t help but have their eyelids twitch twice.
Emperor Haotian looked at the four of them, outwardly calm yet commanding with his grand voice, "Why have you come here when you have not been deified?" freeweɓnøvel~com
Taiyi True Man and Immortal Elder of the Southern Pole said nothing, maintaining calm expressions.
Bo Yikao, on the other hand, wore an irrepressible look of joy, unable to contain his excitement.
Bai Jin gave Emperor Haotian a look, indicating, "Uncle Master, please be patient."
Bai He Child raised the Golden Decree, walked into the Palace of the Polestar from the outside, stood in the center of the hall, and said, "By the edict of the Primordial Venerable, due to the gravity of affairs in Heavenly Court and the fears that the Heavenly Emperor may be overwhelmed, it is specially decreed that Four Imperials be sealed to assist the Heavenly Emperor in the operation of sun, moon, mountains, and rivers.
Bai Jin is sealed as Emperor Gouchen of the Upper Palace, commanding the Demon Clan, and overseeing military affairs in the Mortal World.
Taiyi is sealed as the Eastern Extreme Qinghua Emperor, empowered to guide suffering dead souls to rebirth.
The Immortal Elder of the Southern Pole is sealed as the Southern Polar Emperor of Longevity, in charge of the seasons and climate transformation.
Bo Yikao is sealed as the Emperor of the North Pole, overseeing the heavenly patterns and guiding the stars of all heaven. Let it be respected!"
Bai Jin, Immortal Elder of the Southern Pole, Taiyi True Man, and Bo Yikao all bowed and said respectfully, "We follow the Primordial’s Dharma Decree!"
Bai He Child’s Golden Decree turned into four beams of golden light that flew out and landed on Bai Jin, Immortal Elder of the Southern Pole, Taiyi True Man, and Bo Yikao. A flash of light enveloped them, and they were clothed in the Heavenly Emperor’s Dragon Robes.
Bo Yikao’s rich aura uncontrollably swept out, the might of a Daluo Golden Immortal pressing down on the Palace of the Polestar.
In an instant, the gods were in uproar, staring dumbfounded at the four heavenly emperors in imperial robes within the great hall. Four more emperors? They couldn’t help but look up at Emperor Haotian seated at the main seat, wearing peculiar expressions, and many deities started entertaining different thoughts in their minds.
Sitting at the main seat, Emperor Haotian could clearly feel that a part of his authority had been carved out. However, he indeed needed to thank his Senior Brother Yuan Shi; otherwise, his beloved nephew, Bai Jin, would not have been able to come to Heavenly Court. He immediately smiled and said, "Four Emperors, please take your seats!"
Two additional Emperor’s Chairs appeared to the left and right beneath Jade Emperor’s main seat. Bai Jin and the others floated up and settled into the Emperor’s Chairs.
The assembled gods stood solemnly.
Bai Jin smiled and said, "Today, as the gods resume their positions, the Heavenly Court must establish laws."
He rose to his feet, faced the principal seat, and made a bow, saying, "Your Majesty, I wish to establish several divine positions."
The Heavenly Emperor nodded with a smile and said, "Please speak!"
Bai Jin stood up, turned around, looked down, and called out, "Where is the Law Enforcement Team?"
Six rays of light shot in from outside and landed within the great hall, revealing their figures. It was Zhao Gongming, Yun Xiao, Golden Peng, Kong Xuan, Wuyun Immortal, and Golden Ring Immortal, each dressed in the Law Enforcement Team’s uniforms, standing in a row, imposing and awe-inspiring.
All the gods in the hall held back, retreating two steps with unease in their hearts. Why has the Law Enforcement Team come? After the Calamity, shouldn’t they have returned to their seclusion for cultivation? What business do they have in the Heavenly Court? We’ve suffered so much already, aren’t they going to let us be?
Bai Jin stood above them and commanded with authority, "I hereby confer upon Zhao Gongming, Yun Xiao, Golden Peng, Kong Xuan, Wuyun Immortal, and Golden Ring Immortal the positions of Law Enforcement Celestials, to take charge of the Judicial Temple and oversee the Three Realms."
Zhao Gongming, Yun Xiao, Golden Peng, Kong Xuan, Wuyun Immortal, and Golden Ring Immortal chorused a bow and said, "Acknowledged!"
The surrounding gods all put on a practiced ingratiating smile, their hearts filled with sorrow, feeling darkness before their eyes and foreseeing a gloomy future.
Bai Jin continued to speak, "Shen Gongbao!"
Silence fell within the grand hall.
Gold Star Taibai stepped out from the ranks and respectfully bowed, saying, "Reporting to Emperor Gouchen, Shen Gongbao has been conferred as the Water Dividing General and holds no grade, hence ineligible to enter the Palace of the Polestar."
Bai Jin turned his head to the principal seat and said, "Your Majesty, Shen Gongbao is a rare talent. His role as Water Dividing General is truly a waste. I wish to promote him to the position of Diplomacy God. What does Your Majesty think?"
Queen Mother of Yaochi inquired, "What is a Diplomacy God?"
"The Diplomacy God, as the name implies, is a divine being responsible for the Heavenly Court’s external diplomacy."
The Heavenly Emperor nodded and smilingly said, "Let it be as you say. Gold Star Taibai, draft the Dharma Decree to appoint Shen Gongbao as Diplomacy God."
Gold Star Taibai bowed and replied, "As you command!"
The Heavenly Emperor stood, laughing heartily, and said, "With the gods in their places, we should celebrate together. Three days from now, I will host a grand Flat Peach Banquet in the Turquoise Pool. I invite all my ministers and officials to attend."
All the deities bowed and responded, "As you command!"
The Heavenly Emperor waved his sleeve and declared, "Court is adjourned!"
The gods orderly departed from the hall.
Bai Jin also rose to his feet and walked toward the members of the Law Enforcement Team.
The Heavenly Emperor called out, "Bai Jin, please wait."
Bai Jin halted in his steps and said, "Zhao Gongming, you take them back to the East Sea Three Lights Immortal Island first."
Zhao Gongming nodded, leading Yun Xiao and the others as they turned and left.
Bai Jin, the Heavenly Emperor, and Yaochi Golden Mother walked towards the Yaochi Holy Land.
Bai Jin apologized, "Uncle Teacher, I have caused offense with today’s actions."
The Heavenly Emperor laughed heartily and said, "What offense is there to speak of? This is actually a good thing!"
The Queen Mother of Yaochi frowned and said, "Senior Brother Yuan Shi, by establishing the Four Imperials, your authority has been divided. How can this be considered a good thing?"
