I am a boss in the world of nine uncles

"Here!"

Under Hongjun's piercing gaze, all six sages bowed their heads and obeyed.

Hongjun nodded in satisfaction: "Apart from that, there's nothing else. Let's disperse."

"As you command." The eight people bowed and saluted, then turned around in unison and walked out of the Taoist temple, which looked small from the outside but was surprisingly spacious inside.

"boom."

After they left, the wooden door of the Taoist temple suddenly closed automatically, and then the entire temple disappeared into the void.

Upon hearing the sound, the eight people stopped simultaneously, sizing each other up, each harboring their own thoughts.

"Senior brother, fellow Daoist Jieyin, fellow Daoist Zhunti, would you like to visit my Jade Void Palace?" In the midst of silence, Yuanshi suddenly spoke.

"That is indeed our wish, but we dare not ask," said Zhunti on behalf of the duo with a smile.

Lao Jun's gaze swept over the others, finally settling on Nuwa's face: "Holy Mother, shall we go together?"

Nuwa shook her head, and her body suddenly disappeared from the spot: "The grudges between you are none of my business."

Lao Jun then glanced at Tongtian, but ultimately failed to extend an invitation.

In fact, he has been trying to repair bilateral relations for years, but he has been struggling to come up with the corresponding compensation.

Without any substantial compensation, how could mere words possibly move Tongtian?

A short while later.

The four saints completely ignored the other three and immediately transformed into rainbows and departed.

The three remaining people looked at each other and burst into laughter.

"Interesting... How did you offend Jieyin and Zhunti?" After laughing, Tongtian looked at Qin Yao and asked.

Qin Yao shrugged: "They wanted a way to reach the other world, but I didn't give it to them."

Tong Tian laughed: "That's definitely the style of those two."

If I want something from you, and you not only don't offer it to me, but you also dare to refuse it, then we're enemies.

These two old geezers have always acted this way.

In his memory, the earliest victim was named Hongyun...

The Jade Emperor's eyes gleamed with a sharp light as he invited, "Gentlemen, would you like to have a seat in my Ninth Heaven?"

Tongtian laughed and said, "Let's go to my Biyou Palace instead... Over the years, I've had nothing to do, so I planted many immortal fruits on the island. Now that the harvest is plentiful, it's the perfect time to have an immortal fruit feast."

Qin Yao asked, "Can we pack it up?"

Tongtian: "???"

Jade Emperor: "..."

Jade Void Palace.

Inside the main hall.

Yuanshi Tianzun waved his sleeve to seal the palace, and then uttered a shocking statement:
"Qin Yao must die!"

Zhunti said, "The Dao Ancestor made it clear that he does not allow us to fight among ourselves."

"What he meant was that we should not have any more designs on foreign lands, and that we should not incite any more large-scale battles on the scale of the Investiture of the Gods," Yuanshi Tianzun emphasized.

Zhunti said, "The death of a sage should be even more tragic than the Investiture of the Gods, right?"

They all knew very well that Qin Yao had not entrusted the Way of Heaven to him.

While this means ample freedom, it also means losing the attribute of immortality in this world.

To put it bluntly, Heaven will not revive Qin Yao, thus making him the only saint who could possibly be killed.

"Don't you all want the ability to freely enter and leave other realms?"

The Primordial Celestial Venerable swept his gaze across the three faces and slowly said, "The Dao Ancestor only did not want to reveal the location of our world, but did not issue a prohibition on the ability to conceal one's aura and travel between the two worlds."

Zhunti: "..."

How can I not think about it?

With the arrival of this foreign land, their stagnant lives were suddenly revitalized, and they were filled with anticipation and longing for the future.

“To achieve this, we must uphold the greater good!” After a long pause, Zhunti said resolutely.

Yuanshi said, "That's right, just like during the Investiture of the Gods!"

Zhunti's mind stirred slightly, and he asked, "I wonder if any of you have read a popular novel called 'Journey to the West'?"

The other three shook their heads. Yuanshi asked curiously, "This novel... has anything to do with our claim to the righteous cause?"

Zhunti smiled and said, "Let me briefly describe what the novel is about. It is said that during the Tang Dynasty in the lower realm, the eminent monk Xuanzang was enlightened by Guanyin and ordered by the Tang Emperor to travel west to Mount Ling in the Western Paradise to seek the true scriptures."

Along the way, Tang Sanzang successively subdued the demons arranged by Guanyin, including Sun Wukong, the White Dragon Horse, Zhu Bajie, and Sha Wujing. With the protection of these powerful demons, he fought against demons and monsters all the way, experiencing a total of eighty-one tribulations before finally achieving enlightenment.

Interestingly, among these eighty-one tribulations, there were demons with connections and backgrounds who were either sent down to undergo trials or secretly descended to the mortal realm to enjoy themselves, but without exception, they were all spared.

Only those demons without connections or background, even powerful demon kings, were forcibly suppressed. As for weaker demons, they were simply killed.

Ultimately, this journey to the West, paved with the blood and bones of demons, became the broad road to enlightenment for Tang Sanzang and his companions. Moreover, no one saw them as bloodthirsty butchers; they only felt that the demons deserved their fate.

The other three were all extremely shrewd individuals, and they immediately guessed his plan, falling into deep thought for a moment.

Zhunti said, "How about this, I will go to the mortal realm and retrieve a few deluxe editions of Journey to the West. You will all be able to see more for yourselves."

After saying that, his body vanished from the spot in an instant.

The three saints looked at each other and remained silent in tacit agreement.

Not long after.

Zhunti reappeared with four deluxe editions of Journey to the West, handing three of them to the three saints respectively:

"Nowadays, the technology in this world is truly advancing by leaps and bounds, far surpassing that of the immortal realm in terms of enjoyment."

If you have time, you can go down and experience it for yourself; it truly has a unique flavor.

Lao Jun shook his head and said, "Playing house is fine for a novel experience, but it's not suitable for us to live in for long."

As they spoke, the three saints simultaneously opened "Journey to the West" and quickly finished reading the entire story.

"That's really interesting..."

As Lao Tzu pondered the story, even he couldn't help but exclaim in admiration.

Zhunti said, "There are good people and bad people among humans, and there are good demons and evil demons among demons."

In the realm of immortals, ever since the Three Maos ascended to heaven and brought the Maoshan lineage with them, countless swindlers and evil cultivators have been fond of impersonating Maoshan Taoists to swindle and cheat, and even murder for money.

Maoshan magic has become the most famous magic in the world of earth immortals, and everyone knows that Maoshan magic possesses unfathomable abilities.

Yuanshi Tianzun gripped the Journey to the West book tightly, a smile playing on his lips: "The Taoist priests of Maoshan are no different from the demon race."

"Yes."

Zhunti said, "It is undeniable that there are many upright Taoists in Maoshan, but there are quite a few Taoists with wicked intentions. Exterminating evil demons is acting on behalf of Heaven, but is exterminating demons not also acting on behalf of Heaven?" Yuanshi Tianzun said, "The problem is, we can't just copy the layout in this book, can we? Qin Yao himself ascended from the lower realm, so he must have read Journey to the West."

"Slight changes will suffice."

Zhunti said, "For example, Journey to the West tells the story of obtaining Buddhist scriptures, so we can definitely make a grand plan to spread the scriptures."

With the slogan of spreading Buddhism and helping people, they spread the teachings from west to east.

During the process, they encountered cultivators with backgrounds in the Chan and other religions, and engaged in friendly exchanges to discuss cultivation.

However, if they encounter those charlatans from Maoshan who deceive and swindle, or even murder for money, they will be exterminated just like Sun Wukong fighting demons.

Over the years, the realm of immortals has become a complex mix of good and evil, and the Maoshan sect has formed a vast network of connections, much like the Jie sect in the past.

As the disciples of Maoshan continued to fall, the problems that had once faced the leaders of the Jiejiao sect were now also facing the leaders of Maoshan.

With us in control of the greater good, the four saints working together are enough to handle any situation!
Ultimately, this fire will surely reach Qin Yao.

If Tongtian couldn't resist back then, I believe Qin Yao certainly couldn't either.

Otherwise, what difference would there be between them and a cowardly turtle? How could they possibly maintain their place in the Three Realms in the future?

Upon hearing this, Yuanshi Tianzun's pupils contracted slightly. While he was secretly shocked, he couldn't help but admire the other party's wisdom.

He knew very well that Zhunti had been thinking about bringing Buddhism to the East for countless years, but had never found a suitable opportunity.

After all, under the system where sages rule the world, without his and his senior brother's approval, the Western Buddhist sect simply could not preach in the Earthly Immortal Realm...

"Leaving aside past grievances, just the fact that possessing such a treasure is a crime is enough to deter those four from letting you off easily." In Biyou Palace, amidst the tables and chairs, the Tongtian Sect Leader spat a peach pit into a fruit plate and said to Qin Yao with a smile.

Qin Yao knew he was referring to the matter of traveling between two worlds, so he took a sip of tea to moisten his throat and said, "I know very well."

"Do you regret it? If you hadn't revealed this ability, things might have been better," said the Tongtian Sect Leader.

Qin Yao countered, "Do you regret setting up the Ten Thousand Immortals Formation back then?"

The Master of Heaven laughed, but his smile was quite complicated: "Regret...regret for entrusting my trust to the wrong person!"

"Fortunately, my people are very reliable," Qin Yao said with a smile.

The Tongtian Sect Leader shook his head, then changed the subject: "Based on my understanding of the four of them, they will most likely target the Maoshan Sect and then gradually drag you down with them. Just like they did to me back then."

Qin Yao said, "Now you're practically a Monday morning quarterback, do you have any good advice for me?"

The Tongtian Sect Leader waved his hand: "They will definitely use open tactics, and even if you know the opponent's moves, you can't defend against them."

"Your Majesty, please keep an eye on the movements of the Immortal Realm after you return. The sooner we know what they are doing, the safer we will be," Qin Yao said softly, glancing at the Jade Emperor.

"Alright, but I also ask that Qin Sheng stay in the Heavenly Court to protect me."

The Jade Emperor nodded slightly and said, "Forgive me for speaking so disrespectfully, but some saints are really not magnanimous. I'm worried that if I go back alone, I will face the most direct retaliation."

Qin Yao said, "I'll go with you later."

"If you ever need my help in the future, you can come to the Biyou Palace in the Outer Heavens to find me anytime," Tongtian suddenly promised.

Qin Yao smiled and said, "I am the same."

The Jade Emperor gazed at the two sages and said, "Me too!"

He knew it was a huge gamble.

After all, Tongtian was a loser, and Qin Yao was a new saint, while there were four saints on the other side.

But alas, he had no choice.

Rather than saying he made a choice, it's more accurate to say that the situation pushed him to this side!
half an hour.

Qin Yao and the Jade Emperor bid farewell to Tongtian and flew back to the Nine Heavens from the Outer Heavens.

After entering the palace, the Jade Emperor immediately summoned a group of divine craftsmen to build the Qin Sheng Palace in the most precious area by the Jade Pool, as Qin Yao's place of residence and rest.

Watching this magnificent palace being built as if it had been printed out, Qin Yao couldn't help but sigh at the importance of specialization.

In terms of palace construction, the master craftsmen's abilities are second only to illusion magic and the supernatural power of creating something from nothing.

After receiving the key to the Holy Palace from Lu Ban, Qin Yao immediately went to the Qin Mansion in the Earthly Immortal Realm to bring over A Li, Nian Ying, Cai Yi, Bai Min'er, Ren Tingting, Xiao Wenjun, Athena, Xia Xia, and the two servants, the Red and White Duo. As a result, the originally quiet palace instantly became lively.

As he watched the women curiously wandering around the various palace rooms, a smile gradually appeared on Qin Yao's face. Then he thought of Xiao Zhuo, who lived alone in the Holy Maiden Palace, and Chang'e, who was separated from him.

Apart from that, all his other fleeting romances had completely faded away by then, and he didn't even have the urge to go looking for them...

"What are you thinking about?" Just as his thoughts were drifting away, A-Li, dressed in white, slowly approached and asked softly.

Qin Yao smiled and said, "I was thinking, thank you all for following me to so many places."

Ah Li couldn't help but laugh: "Don't impose suffering on us, we don't feel bitter."

After all, you are not the emperor, and we don't need to compete for favor, let alone engage in internal strife.

Or rather, living with a group of attractive women, without any pressure, and feeling happy every day.

Qin Yao said, "Then shall I introduce two more sisters to you?"

Ah Li's smile faltered slightly: "Get lost then~"

"How lively!" Suddenly, a burst of laughter came from outside the door.

The two looked in the direction of the sound and saw the Queen Mother leading the seven fairies slowly entering. A fragrance immediately wafted towards them.

"Your Majesty." Qin Yao grasped A Li's hand and led the women to greet her.

The Queen Mother smiled and nodded, glancing sideways at A Li: "The Seven Fairies wish to invite you to visit the Jade Pool. What do you think?"

Ah Li laughed and said, "Okay, let's set off now."

"Please follow us, fairies," the fairy in red said softly.

A-Li immediately led her sisters out of Qin Sheng Palace with the Seven Fairies, and soon only Qin Yao and the Queen Mother remained in the huge courtyard.

"I never imagined that you would become a saint in the blink of an eye; not long ago, you were just a Great Golden Immortal," the Queen Mother said softly.

Qin Yao vaguely guessed the other party's intentions, but did not say it directly: "It was just a fluke."

The Queen Mother shook her head: "Other things may have a chance of being lucky, but there is absolutely no chance of being lucky when it comes to attaining sainthood."

Qin Yao pretended to be confused, saying, "Your Majesty flatters me."

Seeing that he was reluctant to bring it up, the Queen Mother had no choice but to be more direct and say, "Qin Sheng, I also want to go to other lands to see."

Qin Yao paused slightly and said, "Didn't the Great Celestial Venerable tell you? The laws of other realms are different from our world, so it's not certain that we can find a way to attain enlightenment. As for me, it was just a fluke."

The Queen Mother said, "That's true, but if you don't try it yourself, you'll eventually feel extremely unwilling."

Qin Yao remained silent.

"Qin Sheng, for the sake of our past friendship, please help me this once?"

The Queen Mother lowered her stance again, speaking almost pleadingly.

Qin Yao sighed and said, "Very well, just this once..." (End of Chapter)
