Reborn Shang Zhou, angry at the sage Nuwa at the beginning

The Lingxiao Palace was deathly silent, and the gods wore different expressions.

The Jade Emperor's face was pale, the two Western Saints closed their eyes and remained silent, while Laozi stroked his beard and slowly spoke: "Human Emperor, this is the heretical talk of the Jie Sect to mislead the masses, how can it be taken seriously? The Investiture of the Gods was the will of Heaven. The Jie Sect went against Heaven and brought about its own destruction, which has nothing to do with anyone else."

"God willing?"

Di Xin roared, and golden spiritual light surged around him.

"What is the will of Heaven? Is the will of Heaven to place all gods high above, controlling the fate of the three realms? Is the will of Heaven to reduce all living beings to pawns, to be slaughtered at will?"

His gaze was fixed on Yuanshi Tianzun. "Yuanshi Tianzun, you are the leader of the Chan Sect, a man of high virtue and prestige. Do you also intend to deny the records on this jade slip?"

Yuanshi Tianzun opened his eyes, met Di Xin's gaze, and calmly said, "Human Emperor, the affairs of the Three Realms are intricate and complex, not as simple as you see them. Many disciples of the Jie Sect have committed evil deeds. The Investiture of the Gods was to purge the demons and evil spirits of the Three Realms and consolidate the order of the Three Realms, not the conspiracy you think it is."

"Consolidate the order of the Three Realms?"

Di Xin sneered, "If it were truly to consolidate order, why scheme in secret? Why seize the source of the Netherfire? Why subject all beings in the Three Realms to the ravages of war?"

He raised his hand and waved it, causing the Human Emperor Cauldron to emit a golden light screen. On the screen, the tragic scenes of the great war between the human and underworld races and the Investiture of the Gods were displayed.

And the tragic scene of all beings in the Three Realms being displaced and their corpses strewn across the land!

"Is this what you call consolidating order?"

The gods looked at the scene on the light screen, their expressions growing increasingly solemn.

Some of the younger gods even looked ashamed. They had not known these secrets before, and now that the truth was out, they realized how despicable the gods' actions were.

Just at this time,

A dark figure suddenly burst into the Lingxiao Palace, exuding a dense aura of yin energy; it was none other than the remnant soul of the Netherworld Ancestor.

"Your Majesty, you are right!"

The voice of the Ancestor of the Underworld was filled with resentment, "Back then, the gods used the human race to suppress my Underworld race and seize our race's origin. Today, I will join you in taking revenge on the gods!"

Di Xin frowned, his kingly aura surging as he suppressed the remnant soul of the Netherworld Ancestor: "Netherworld Ancestor, I have come here today to seek an explanation and resolve our grievances, not for revenge. If you dare to cause trouble here, don't blame me for being impolite!"

"Resolve the feud?"

The Ancestor of the Underworld sneered: "Human Emperor, you are too naive! The gods are ambitious and will not easily admit their mistakes. If we do not join forces today, not only will we not get an explanation, but we will also be silenced by the gods!"

As soon as he finished speaking,

The remnant soul of the Netherworld Ancestor suddenly surged and rushed towards the Primordial Heavenly Venerable.

"Old man Yuanshi, you plotted against my Underworld Clan back then, today I will make you pay for your crime in blood!"

The Celestial Venerable of Primordial Beginning's expression darkened. He raised his hand and waved it, sending a white spiritual light that repelled the remnant soul of the Ancestor of the Underworld.

"Remnants of the Underworld Clan, you dare to be so insolent even when you're about to die!"

"stop!"

Di Xin roared and stood between the Ancestor of the Underworld and the Primordial Heavenly Lord.
"Today's events have nothing to do with the Underworld Clan, but are a grudge between my human race and the gods. If the gods are willing to admit their mistakes, return the source of the Underworld Fire, and resolve the grudges between the three realms, I will spare the Underworld Ancestor and let the Underworld Clan return to the Avici Hell, never to come out and cause trouble again."

Laozi stroked his beard and slowly said, "Human Emperor, the origin of the Netherfire has long been integrated into the fortune of the Nine Heavens. How can it be easily returned? However, the Investiture of the Gods was indeed unfair, and we can resolve the injustice done to the Jie Sect. From now on, the fortune of the Three Realms will be shared by humans, gods, demons, Buddhas, and the Netherworld races. The gods will no longer interfere in the internal affairs of the Three Realms. What do you think?"

Di Xin's eyes narrowed, knowing that Laozi was making concessions but also avoiding the key issues.

"No!" he said firmly. "The Netherfire originated from the Netherworld race and must be returned by the gods. Furthermore, the Primordial Celestial Venerable, the Supreme Lord Laozi, and others must publicly apologize to the Jie Sect and the Netherworld race, restoring a true history to the Three Realms!"

"Your Majesty, don't push your luck!"

The Jade Emperor roared, his immortal aura surging: "The Heavenly Court is the legitimate authority of the Three Realms, how dare you be so presumptuous! If you insist on this today, don't blame us for being impolite to you!"

"You're welcome?"

Di Xin sneered: "I dared to lead the army of the Three Realms to storm the Heavenly Court today because I had already made thorough preparations. If the gods refuse to admit their mistakes and refuse to return the source of the Netherfire, I will have no choice but to join forces with the Netherworld Clan, overthrow the Heavenly Court, and re-establish the order of the Three Realms!"

After all,

Di Xin raised his hand and waved it, and the Human Emperor Cauldron emitted a golden beam of light, which resonated with the remnant soul of the Netherworld Ancestor.

The armies of the Three Realms also raised their weapons, staring intently at the gods inside the Lingxiao Palace with overwhelming momentum.

The gods' expressions changed. They hadn't expected Di Xin to be so tough, and they certainly hadn't expected him to actually join forces with the Underworld Clan.

Yuanshi Tianzun frowned, pondered for a moment, and slowly said, "Very well! We can publicly apologize to the Jie Sect and the Underworld Clan, and we can also return the source of the Underworld Fire. But the Underworld Clan must promise never to invade the Three Realms again, otherwise, we will utterly annihilate them!"

After pondering for a moment, the remnant soul of the Netherworld Ancestor nodded and said, "Agreed! As long as the gods return the source of the Netherfire and publicly admit their mistakes, my Netherworld Clan will never again step out of the Avici Hell!"

Di Xin breathed a sigh of relief as he watched the two sides reach an agreement.

"Okay! It's a deal!"

He declared loudly, "Let this be our agreement. If either party breaks this promise in the future, I will lead the power of the Three Realms to suppress them!"

Subsequently,

Yuanshi Tianzun, Taishang Laojun, and others walked out of the Lingxiao Palace and publicly apologized to the people of the Three Realms, admitting the conspiracy of the Investiture of the Gods and the truth of the great war between the human and underworld races.

With a wave of his hand, Laozi sent a golden stream of light flying out from the clouds of fortune above the nine heavens. It was the Netherfire Origin of the Netherworld Clan.

The Netherfire essence transformed into a black pillar of light, merging into the remnant soul of the Netherworld Ancestor, causing his power to surge instantly.

Ancestor Mingyuan felt a familiar power within his body, and a complex emotion flashed in his eyes.

He cupped his hands in a gesture of respect towards Emperor Xin: "Human Emperor, thank you for speaking up for justice today. My Netherworld Clan owes you a favor. If the Three Realms are ever in trouble in the future, my Netherworld Clan will surely lend a helping hand."

After all,

His remnant soul transformed into a black shadow and flew towards the direction of the Avici Hell.

As Di Xin watched the departing figure of the Ancestor of the Underworld, he was filled with countless emotions.

This age-old feud has finally been resolved today.

He turned to the gods and said, “Today’s matter is settled. I ask that you keep your promise and from now on never interfere in the internal affairs of the Three Realms again, and live in peace with the human, demon, Buddha and underworld races.”

"We will keep in mind the teachings of the Emperor."

The gods responded in unison, their expressions showing a hint of awe.

they know,

After today's events, Emperor Xin's prestige has deeply penetrated the hearts of the people, and the格局 (geju, a concept encompassing the overall structure and overall balance) of the Three Realms has been completely changed. The Heavenly Court is no longer the sole legitimate authority, and all races will share the destiny of the Three Realms. (End of Chapter)
