Chapter 811: Celestial Emperor Ji Yan
Chapter 811: Celestial Emperor Ji Yan
"If that’s the case, Your Highness will surely become a Xian revered by all, and will reshape the image of Xians in the hearts of the people."
Gu An looked at the Xuan Yuan Human Sovereign with admiration, and these words brought a smile to the Human Sovereign’s face.
Elder Immortal Ci Xuan said with a smile, "Your Highness has always had the ideal of restoring the righteousness of the Heavenly Court. After this victory, Heaven’s rewards to Your Highness far exceeded expectations, indicating that even the Heavenly Dao supports Your Highness’s ideals."
His tone was excited as he spoke, clearly indicating that the outcome of the Emperor's Contention was different from what he had expected, and it made him even more elated.
The Xuan Yuan Human Sovereign’s face lit up with a smile, his mood soaring.
To receive the approval of a peerless being like the Primordial Ancestor was proof that the path he had chosen was right.
The three of them chatted for a while longer. The Xuan Yuan Human Sovereign and Elder Immortal Ci Xuan did not linger much, although they had stayed for an hour, they felt they had gained a great deal.
At the very least, they now had a chance to win the Primordial Ancestor’s favor.
"By the way, what do you think of Celestial Emperor Ji Yan?"
Gu An suddenly asked, making the two immortals pause as they were about to leave. They looked at Gu An in surprise.
Elder Immortal Ci Xuan asked first, "Ancestor, why are you asking about him?"
The mention of Celestial Emperor Ji Yan made Elder Immortal Ci Xuan’s expression uneasy, and even the Xuan Yuan Human Sovereign frowned.
Gu An maintained his smile and said softly, "Just curious, I want to know more."
Elder Immortal Ci Xuan glanced at the Xuan Yuan Human Sovereign and then said, "This Celestial Emperor ranks very high among the Celestial Thrones. His cultivation is on par with some of the Heavenly Dao Sovereigns. His position as a Celestial Emperor is among the top hundred. He once won the Emperor's Contention but later lost. Since then, he has been in deep seclusion, rarely showing his face. However, over the long years, the Xians under his command have been cultivating new Xians. In short, this Celestial Emperor is not someone to be trifled with."
By saying "not someone to be trifled with", he was subtly warning Gu An not to provoke Celestial Emperor Ji Yan.
Even though Gu An had shown strength that rivaled the Daoji Grand Immortal, Elder Immortal Ci Xuan did not want Gu An to attract the ire of Celestial Emperor Ji Yan.
The Xuan Yuan Human Sovereign remained silent, but it was clear that he was very wary of Celestial Emperor Ji Yan.
Gu An laughed and said, "Don’t worry, I have no grudge against him. I just happened to see him planning something. That’s all. You two can go now."
Elder Immortal Ci Xuan was even more puzzled. He wanted to ask what Celestial Emperor Ji Yan was planning, but he dared not taint himself with Celestial Emperor Ji Yan’s karma.
The Xuan Yuan Human Sovereign looked at Gu An and asked, "Is what he’s planning related to the Three Thousand Great Worlds?"
Gu An did not answer, only looking at the teacup on the table.
The Xuan Yuan Human Sovereign and Elder Immortal Ci Xuan immediately understood. Their faces turned grave.
They did not ask any more questions but bowed and left.
After leaving the Void, the two immortals teleported directly to the Realm Gate.
The Xuan Yuan Human Sovereign’s face was dark, his eyes blazing with anger. The Celestial Spirit Deity guarding the Realm Gate quickly stood up at the sight.
"Your Highness, don’t act rashly!"
Elder Immortal Ci Xuan hurriedly said, guessing what the Xuan Yuan Human Sovereign intended to do.
The Xuan Yuan Human Sovereign did not turn back and said, "I understand. I’m just angry, but I won’t give him the chance."
As he passed the Celestial Spirit Deity, he stopped, turned, and his expression softened. "Serve the Primordial Ancestor well. If anything happens, come to me. Just call my name at the Realm Gate, and I will hear it."
The Celestial Spirit Deity was flattered and quickly agreed.
Then, the Xuan Yuan Human Sovereign and Elder Immortal Ci Xuan stepped through the Realm Gate.
After the bright light from the Realm Gate faded, the Celestial Spirit Deity felt a great weight lifted from his shoulders, and his face broke into a smile.
The path ahead was becoming smoother!
As a Celestial Deity, serving a non-Heavenly Court great power was a heretical act, but now, many high-ranking Xians supported him in doing so.
The Celestial Spirit Deity resumed his meditation, his gaze drifting to the distant Tianhao.
I wonder if that kid has become a Xian and what rank he has attained?
Meanwhile, Gu An walked out of the Mountain-Watching Pavilion, strolling along the mountain path, and wandered through the wilderness. He was pondering the future.
In the distant future, Celestial Emperor Ji Yan would reincarnate and descend to the Heavenly Spirit Grand World, achieving the status of a Supreme Being and sparking a war for dominion over the Three Thousand Great Worlds.
This fate became apparent after the Xuan Yuan Human Sovereign’s victory, clearly indicating that Celestial Emperor Ji Yan was targeting the Xuan Yuan Human Sovereign.
Gu An had previously warned Ji Xiaoyu not to believe in the concept of Xian fate because Ji Xiaoyu would encounter Celestial Emperor Ji Yan in the future.
Celestial Emperor Ji Yan’s cultivation was formidable, reaching the Great Perfect Realm of Daoji!
But unfortunately, such cultivation held no secrets for Gu An.
This made Gu An reflect that it was fortunate he did not act recklessly when he became a Daoji Grand Immortal. If he had gone on a killing spree and frantically accumulated lifespan, he would have surely drawn the attention of the Primordial Essence Immortal and the Primordial Profound Venerable Immortal.
"There’s always someone playing the lead role in this world, but it’s better to stay here and watch the show."
Gu An mused to himself, though no one was around to hear him, and even if they were, they wouldn’t understand what he was saying.
He planned to go and check on Zhuang Xian’s cultivation progress.
Although he said he was observing Zhuang Xian’s own creation, it was the first time in millions of years that he had taught someone cultivation, and he couldn’t let Zhuang Xian’s progress be too poor!
...
In the Heavenly Court, the Grand Law Celestial Palace.
In the grand hall, hundreds of Xians were seated on their cushions, including Li Xuemiao and Heaven Destroyer, who sat next to each other.
The Grand Light and Vast Law Divine Exalted had not yet appeared, and the disciples of the Grand Law Celestial Palace were discussing the Emperor's Contention.
"I never expected the Xuan Yuan Human Sovereign to turn the tide. It truly surprised me."
"Who would have thought? Grand Immortal Tai Xian was almost victorious, yet the situation was reversed. I wonder what happened in the Three Thousand Great Worlds."
"I heard the Xuan Yuan Human Sovereign invited a peerless being to intervene."
"I also heard that Grand Immortal Tai Xian invited a Supreme Xian, but he was no match for the other. This might be why the Xuan Yuan Human Sovereign was bestowed the title of Vast World Xian King."
"The Xuan Yuan Human Sovereign introduced hundreds of Xians, and Heaven approved. I fear more Celestial Emperors will engage in such Emperor's Contentions in the future."
Listening to the Xians around her, Li Xuemiao felt that her master was somehow involved.
If anyone in the Three Thousand Great Worlds was the greatest variable, it had to be her master.
Grand Immortal Tai Xian’s ruthless methods had made her worry about the Heavenly Spirit Grand World, and she feared that Gu An might become an enemy of the Heavenly Court to protect it.
Heaven Destroyer said, "The impact of this Emperor's Contention might be a sign of something."
Li Xuemiao turned to him, curious, and asked, "What kind of sign?"
Heaven Destroyer did not answer directly but said, "I heard both Celestial Emperors used Heavenly Dragon Qi."
"What is Heavenly Dragon Qi?"
"It’s the Tong Sheng of the Celestial Emperor, possessing the overwhelming power to suppress the Heavenly Dao."
Heaven Destroyer’s words made Li Xuemiao’s expression change.
Two Celestial Emperors who had received the true teachings of the Celestial Emperor were in conflict, and Heaven had bestowed unprecedented merit rewards. This was indeed extraordinary.
