Daojun, start from Penglai foundation building

The Great Thousand-Year Calendar of the Three Realms, three thousand years, New Year's Day.

At this time, the entire Heavenly Court was decorated with lanterns and colorful decorations, especially the Jade Pool Sacred Realm, because the Peach Banquet had officially begun.

Countless processions soared into the sky from the thirteen continents and four seas, rushing from various holy sites and immortal sects to the Southern Heavenly Gate, heading to the Jade Pool for a banquet.

Within the eighth heaven, the Yaochi Sacred Realm in the northwest is breathtakingly beautiful. Above, a rainbow of nine colors lingers, and auspicious light shines everywhere. There is also a shimmering Milky Way, a sea of ​​stars, and a magpie bridge extending in all directions. Azure phoenixes dance gracefully, and every distinguished guest who comes to Yaochi is escorted to the Yaochi Langhuan Terrace by an azure phoenix procession.

At the main gate of Yaochi Sacred Realm, the three armies of the Judicial Heavenly Lord's Palace were already in position and arrayed. Tian Ming'an, Qiu Buyu, Li Jianchun, and Huang Ping'an, the four True Lords of Refining Emptiness, were acting as gatekeepers. As for the task of welcoming guests, it was the Jade Virtuous Immortal Lord who was in charge of welcoming guests, along with Fairy Yueping and Fairy Yuerui from Yaochi.

Although the Judicial Heavenly Lord's Palace is responsible for guarding the inside and outside of Yaochi, Jiang Sheng, as the Judicial Heavenly Lord, does not need to patrol all the time like others. After all, Jiang Sheng is also one of the distinguished guests at this Yaochi Law Banquet. However, Jiang Sheng did not enter Langhuan Terrace.

Not only Jiang Sheng, but all the gods and immortals in Heaven were like this.

The veteran Mahayana masters of the Heavenly Court, such as Emperor Sichen and Emperor Zhenxing, and the newly appointed Mahayana masters, such as Emperor Tianyun and Emperor Liuyuan, were chatting and laughing in the Jade Pool. As colleagues of the Heavenly Court and with the same divine background, they naturally got along well.

On the other side, the Xuanjing Immortal Lord, Junxiao Immortal Lord, Chiyun Immortal Lord, and other Xuanmen Mahayana masters of the Eastern Heaven were clearly separated from the Heavenly Court's divine emperors and were grouped together on the east side; in contrast, the Mahayana Venerables and Bright Kings of the Western Heaven's Buddhist sect were discussing Buddhist teachings with smiles on their faces.

When Venerable Zhenhe, Venerable Zhenkong, and Venerable Zhenhai of Dalingyin Temple, along with Venerable Miyin and Venerable Mijian of Futu Temple, and Venerable Putai and Venerable Pushe of Mingguang Temple and Jinglian Temple, came together, their Buddha-light was truly dazzling and their Dharma-image radiant.

Immortals, gods, and Buddhas are clearly distinct. When the various demon lords of the demon race arrived, they instinctively banded together for warmth. However, Immortal Lord Fuyun was different. He first went to the Eastern Heaven and shamelessly chatted for a few words, then went to the Buddhist sect to exchange Buddhist teachings, and finally even had a casual chat with the demon race. Neither the Taoist sect of the Eastern Heaven nor the Buddhist sect of the Western Heaven could refuse Immortal Lord Fuyun, and the demon race was no exception.

With Immortal Lord Fuyun acting as a mediator, the previously distinct divisions between different groups gradually disappeared. After all, who doesn't have a few friends?

The Xuanmen sect also has friends from the demon race and the divine path, while the divine path also has relatives and friends from the Buddhist sect and the Eastern Heaven. Previously, everyone was too embarrassed to take the initiative to approach each other due to their respective sectarian stances. However, with the help of Immortal Lord Fuyun breaking the ice, and the group of Mahayana cultivators who are all old and shrewd, they took the opportunity to decline. In a short time, the Yaochi Sacred Realm became more and more lively.

Venerable Putai and Lord Zhenxing discussed the immortal tea from a while ago, while Immortal Lord Junxiao and Immortal Lord Xuanjing discussed the location for their next game of chess with Emperor Liuyuan and Emperor Sichen. King Zhenhai and Emperor Qianji talked in hushed tones, while Venerable Zhenkong and Lord Zhenyue recounted interesting stories from the Heavenly Court. The conversation grew increasingly enthusiastic, and their laughter even reached the entrance to the Jade Pool.

"It's so lively inside, why doesn't the Heavenly Lord go in and join the fun?"

Jade Immortal Lord looked at Jiang Sheng beside her and smiled.

Jiang Sheng shook his head: "Isn't the Immortal Lord here too? As the Heavenly Lord of Justice, I should first do my best to stand guard at the last post. After all, my disciples are on duty at the gate, and my subordinates are patrolling inside and outside. How can I go out to eat, drink, and have fun?"

Jade Maiden nodded. She believed Jiang Sheng's words. After the two chatted for a while at the door, a charming voice came from afar: "Your Majesty is in a good mood. To be honest, I have been in Little Penglai for two years and have not seen Your Majesty once. I am very sad."

Before the person arrived, their voice preceded their arrival, followed by a captivating spring breeze. In an instant, the entrance to the Jade Pool was filled with boundless springtime charm, making one's mouth dry and one's desires restless.

Even without seeing the person, just hearing that alluring voice and feeling the breeze, Jiang Sheng knew who it was. Yu Zhen Xianjun also frowned after smelling that fragrant and seductive scent.

"Oh dear, so Sister Yuzhen is here too. I greet you."

Daji smiled and gracefully bowed, her demeanor elegant yet alluring. Jade Immortal Lord, however, remained indifferent, saying, "Since the Demon Lord has arrived, please go in. There may be many old acquaintances of the Demon Lord inside."

Daji wasn't embarrassed at all, she just smiled and said, "Then I'll catch up with the Heavenly Emperor after the banquet starts. Sister Yuzhen, I'll go in first."

As she spoke, Daji entered the Jade Pool, and immediately, many joyful voices echoed from within: "It's Lady Daji!"

"Why is Daji Demon Lord only arriving now? We've already saved a seat for you."

"It's been a long time since we've seen Lady Daji."

Listening to the commotion in the Jade Pool, Immortal Lord Yuzhen frowned even more: "That damned vixen, she's been leaving her mark all over the heavens and myriad realms, you can smell her filth everywhere!"

Clearly, Jade Immortal Lord was extremely dissatisfied with Daji. It was unclear whether it was because Jade Immortal Lord came from the orthodox lineage of the Xuanmen and the legitimate lineage of Yaochi, thus looking down on Daji's demonic charm and demeanor, or for some other reason.

"Immortal Lord, isn't this Demon Queen Daji a distinguished guest of your Jade Pool?" Jiang Sheng asked.

Jade Immortal Lord snorted and said with great disdain, "What kind of distinguished guest is she? A demon mongrel who was favored by the Great Sage of Tushan and ran away from the Great Wilderness Realm to our Three Realms to freeload."

"How can a shameless and dissolute demon who roams the myriad realms be considered a distinguished guest of my Jade Pool?" "I truly don't know what the Great Sage of Tushan sees in her!"

Leaving aside other matters, the nine-tailed celestial foxes of all the heavens and myriad realms are divided into the white fox lineage and the red fox lineage. The white fox lineage is Qingqiu, which is known as the land of the fox ancestors of all realms.

The fox clan of Qingqiu is noble and proud. Although there are some who are not so virtuous, most of them are monogamous and are proficient in poetry, calligraphy, painting, cultivation, and various arts. They also have their own networks and are all quite wealthy. Moreover, once a fox woman in Qingqiu has chosen someone, she will not change her mind. She does not care if her partner is poor or ugly. As long as the other party has a skill that catches her eye and can move her heart, she will be willing to follow him. Therefore, many fox women in Qingqiu are women who marry down.

The fox men of Qingqiu are the same; they are chaste, exceptionally talented, and devoted to their lovers. In addition, almost all the fox men and women of Qingqiu are handsome. Therefore, both the demon race and the human race in all the heavens and myriad realms highly praise the fox men and women of Qingqiu.

As for the Tushan Red Fox lineage, it is similar to Qingqiu. However, in addition to being chaste and devoted to love, the Tushan Red Foxes also like to arrange marriages for others. Many marriages between demons and humans are facilitated by the Tushan Red Foxes. Although there seems to be no problem, a large group of half-demons born as a result have not had a good ending. Later, Tushan found a way to gather those half-demons who had lost the protection of their parents and settle them in Tushan.

It can be said that both the Red Fox lineage and the White Fox lineage have a good reputation in the myriad realms, and at least their words and deeds are worthy of respect. However, Daji, who has the bloodlines of both the Tushan Red Fox lineage and the Qingqiu White Fox lineage, is clearly an outlier.

Despite possessing the bloodlines of two different celestial foxes, she only inherited their beauty and temperament, but not their principles and beliefs. No wonder Jade Immortal Lord looked down on Daji.

"What? That vixen has already arrived?"

A graceful and elegant figure approached, her hair adorned with jade hairpins and her palace dress flowing with tassels. The moment her bright and radiant face appeared, it was as if a hundred flowers were blooming outside the Jade Pool, captivating all who beheld her.

When Jade Immortal Lord saw the newcomer, she showed no trace of the bad luck she had felt when she encountered Daji. Overjoyed, she stepped forward and said, "It's Sister Baihua! Why did you take so long to arrive?"

The Hundred Flowers Immortal Lord ascended from the Middle Thousand Worlds and obtained a noble position in the Heavenly Court, in charge of managing the flowers and plants of the Heavenly Court. However, this is a true Mahayana Immortal Lord, and has many close female friends in the Heavenly Court.

Jiang Sheng knew that many female immortals in their Eastern Heaven had a good relationship with this immortal lord, so Jiang Sheng took the opportunity to greet him: "Immortal Lord of a Hundred Flowers".

The Hundred Flowers Immortal Lord laughed and said, "The Heavenly Lord is here too. I heard that the vixen is making a fuss and insists that the Heavenly Lord take care of her. I suppose the Heavenly Lord is also having a lot of trouble."

Jiang Sheng remained silent, which was taken as an admission. He did not have a good impression of Daji. It was obvious that she had come to him with a clear purpose and was shamelessly flaunting and seducing him. Jiang Sheng had always kept his distance from her.

Then Jade Immortal Lord said, "Sister, did you hear that? That fox is being fawned over by all the immortals and gods inside, and he's quite pleased with himself."

Hearing the laughter coming from the Jade Pool, Daji's charming laughter was very clear. The Hundred Flowers Immortal Lord snorted and turned to the Jade Virtue Immortal Lord, saying, "No rush, let her show off in there for a while."

"I ran into Lord Lan Qingyue when I arrived. She was on her way here with Lord Yuanjingyue and Lord Lingongyue. It's not too late to go in after the three lords arrive."

There are many suns and moons in the Three Realms, but only a few are under the control of the Heavenly Court. The three Moon Lords are all Mahayana deities of the Heavenly Court, each with an extraordinary, elegant, and noble temperament. As elders of the Heavenly Court, their appearance will at least make those deities and Buddhists more restrained.

Sure enough, in no time, the three Moon Lords arrived together. As the Moon Palace's carriage reached the Jade Pool, Jade Virtuous Immortal Lord and Hundred Flowers Immortal Lord went up to greet them. The three Moon Lords got off the carriage and whispered something to the two Immortal Lords, occasionally laughing.

Jiang Sheng immediately moved far away. He didn't want to hear anything he shouldn't have, since the five Mahayana female immortals were gathered together.

After chatting for a while, the Hundred Flowers Immortal Lord seemed to say something, and then the three Moon Lords bid farewell to the Jade Virtue Immortal Lord. The Hundred Flowers Immortal Lord, together with the three Moon Lords, entered the Jade Pool.

At this moment, Daji was flitting among the immortals, gods, demons, and Buddhas in the Jade Pool, like a butterfly fluttering among flowers, leaving her mark everywhere and flaunting her charms. She captivated all the immortals, gods, demons, and Buddhas. On one side, the Emperor smiled obsequiously, and on the other side, the Venerable Ones presented her with treasures. Under the watchful eyes of everyone, Daji became even more radiant and beautiful, captivating all hearts.

Just as Daji was about to unleash her charm, the Hundred Flower Immortal and the three Moon Lords entered the Jade Pool. Instantly, hundreds of flowers bloomed and the moonlight shone brightly. Amidst the flowers and the moon, the Hundred Flower Immortal and the three Moon Lords walked hand in hand, their aloofness, nobility, and radiant beauty instantly calming the immortals and gods in the Jade Pool.

The gods and deities of the divine path immediately avoided Daji, each retreating far away to demonstrate their innocence; the Buddhist venerables also returned to their detached and ascetic state, some chanting scriptures and others discussing the Dharma.

Immediately, everyone seemed to notice that the Hundred Flowers Immortal Lord and the three Moon Lords had also stepped forward to greet him: "Hundred Flowers Immortal Lord."

"Master Lan Qingyue."

The Hundred Flowers Immortal Lord and the three Moon Lords greeted the assembled Immortal Lords, Emperors, Venerables, and Demon Lords with smiles. Then, seemingly unintentionally, they passed by Daji. The Hundred Flowers Immortal Lord spoke softly, as if chatting with the three Moon Lords, but Daji could hear him clearly: "What an arrogant vixen! She dares to flaunt her charms even in the Jade Pool."

Daji's smile remained unchanged, as if she hadn't heard anything, but her peach blossom eyes slowly swept over the group of immortals, gods, demons, and Buddhas. Looking at their pretentious aloofness, a cold glint flashed in her eyes: These men, even if they become gods or monks, are still the same!

They're all heartless, they're all unreliable! (End of Chapter)
