Chapter 399 Conference!

Sun Wukong nodded slightly, with some approval in his eyes:

"Brother Niu is always trustworthy in my work. I will leave the preparations for the Dao Conference to you. You must make sure that the representatives of all ethnic groups feel our sincerity."

The Bull Demon King patted his chest proudly and said with a smile:

"Don't worry, Seventh Brother. I will make sure everything is arranged properly and there will be no omissions."

Sun Wukong turned to look at Nezha again, and said in a calm tone:
"Nezha, the patrol mission of the Heavenly Palace and the surrounding areas is now handed over to you. During the Three Realms Conference, no chaos must occur."

Nezha raised his eyebrows, and a cold light flashed in his eyes:
"Don't worry, Great Sage. If anyone dares to cause trouble at this time, I will make him know the power of the Fire Spear!"

Sun Wukong smiled slightly and patted Nezha on the shoulder:

"Of course I trust your methods, but I also want to remind you to be cautious when patrolling and not to escalate conflicts."

Nezha nodded, with the corners of his mouth slightly raised:
"Understood. I will know when to stop."

After the meeting, Nezha immediately summoned his trusted subordinates and began to formulate a detailed patrol plan.

He stood on the high platform of the martial arts arena, his eyes as sharp as torches, sweeping over the soldiers lined up in neat rows below.

"Brothers, the Three Realms Conference is about to be held. Our mission is to ensure the safety of the Heavenly Palace and the surrounding areas. We must not allow anyone with ill intentions to take advantage of the opportunity!"

Nezha's voice was loud and powerful, echoing over the martial arts arena.

The soldiers below responded in unison, the sound was deafening.

Nezha continued:

"The patrol mission is divided into three shifts, and each team must strictly patrol every corner of the Heavenly Palace, especially those places that are easily overlooked. Once any abnormality is found, report it immediately!"

The soldiers took orders in unison, and then, under the command of the deputy general, they divided into several teams and began to carry out their tasks.

Nezha personally led a team of people to inspect several important strongholds outside the Heavenly Palace.

He stood above the clouds, overlooking the mountains and rivers below, with a sharp look in his eyes.

"General, are we going to search the camps of the various tribes in these areas?"

The deputy general stepped forward and asked in a low voice.

Nezha shook his head, his tone stern:
"No, our main task now is to deter, not to intensify the conflict. As long as they behave themselves, we don't need to interfere too much."

The deputy general nodded and then led the team to continue the patrol.

At the same time, Yang Jian also began to collect suggestions and opinions from various ethnic groups.

He sat at the desk of the Supervisory Office, in front of him were piles of memorials and documents sent from various states, with different handwritings and complicated contents.

Yang Jian rubbed his eyebrows gently, with a bit of fatigue in his eyes, but more of seriousness and concentration.

He picked up a memorial at random, read it carefully, and occasionally wrote down the key points on the paper next to it with a brush.

“These suggestions are quite insightful.”

Yang Jian muttered to himself, then looked up at the attendant beside him.

“Sort these suggestions into categories and put them into different categories to facilitate subsequent discussions.”

The attendant responded respectfully and immediately began to get busy.

A few days later, Yang Jian presented the sorted information to Sun Wukong.

He stood in the Qitian Hall with a solemn look:

"Great Sage, these are the suggestions and opinions put forward by various races. I have classified them into three categories: one is about the improvement of the laws of the Three Realms; the second is about the allocation of resources among various races; and the third is about the promotion of education."

Sun Wukong took the thick file and smiled slightly:
"Yang Jian, you have worked hard. These materials will provide important references for the Dao Conference."

Yang Jian nodded, his tone calm:
"Great Sage, I have also arranged for members of the Supervisory Department to strengthen the secret surveillance of representatives of various tribes to prevent anyone from having ill intentions and secretly sabotaging the conference."

A hint of approval flashed in Sun Wukong's eyes:
"You are very thoughtful. The Dao Conference concerns the future stability of the Three Realms. We must ensure that nothing goes wrong."

Yang Jian nodded slightly, then turned and left, continuing to be busy with the affairs of the Supervisory Office.

A few days later, the Heavenly Palace was decorated with lights and lanterns, and representatives from various ethnic groups arrived one after another.

In the Tianting Square, representatives of all ethnic groups gathered together, making it very lively.

Cranes were circling in the sky, auspicious clouds were lingering, and the entire heaven was shrouded in a peaceful atmosphere.

Sun Wukong stood on the high platform of the Qitian Hall, his eyes swept over the representatives of various ethnic groups below with a gratified smile on his face.

He raised his hand and said in a loud and powerful voice:
"Everyone, today the Three Realms Discussion Conference is officially held! We gather together to make plans for the future of the Three Realms. I hope that all races will work together and move forward hand in hand!"

Representatives of all ethnic groups in the audience stood up one after another, and applause and cheers rang out one after another.

At this moment, Nezha quietly appeared beside Sun Wukong and whispered:
"Great Sage, the patrol team has been fully deployed. Everything inside and outside the Heavenly Palace is normal. There is absolutely no abnormality."

Sun Wukong nodded slightly, with a look of trust in his eyes:

"Very good, you've worked hard."

Yang Jian also stepped forward, looking solemn:

"Great Sage, representatives from all races have arrived. The Dao Conference can now officially begin."

Sun Wukong smiled slightly and waved his hand:
"Okay, let the meeting begin!"

Nezha cupped his hands and said, "Don't worry, Great Sage. Everything is under control."

After he finished speaking, he nodded slightly to Sun Wukong and turned back to his seat.

The golden armor sparkled in the sun, and the Hun Tian Ling and Qian Kun Ring on Nezha's waist swayed gently with his steps.

In the square, fairy music played and fairies danced gracefully with their clothes fluttering in the wind, just like the colorful clouds in the sky.

Yang Jian slightly turned sideways, withdrew his gaze from the square, and whispered to Sun Wukong:

"Great Sage, I have sorted out the suggestions and opinions submitted by the representatives of each tribe and can present them at any time."

He took out a scroll from his sleeve and handed it to Sun Wukong with both hands.

The scroll exuded a faint scent of ink, and was densely covered with beautiful small characters.

Several cranes flew over the square, their cries echoing through the sky. Sun Wukong took the scroll, unfolded it, took a look, and nodded with satisfaction:
"I always trust Master Erlang to do things."

He put away the scroll, turned to the representatives of various ethnic groups in the square, and cleared his throat:
"Everyone, today's discussion meeting is aimed at gathering wisdom and discussing the development of the Three Realms. I hope everyone will speak freely and contribute wisdom to the peace and prosperity of the Three Realms."

His voice was loud and clear, and it spread throughout the heaven. In the square, representatives of all ethnic groups fell silent, and their eyes were focused on Sun Wukong.

An old man in a green robe with white hair and a youthful face stood up and bowed to Sun Wukong, saying:
"Great Sage, I am Li Chunfeng, the immortal from Penglai Island. I have a few humble opinions that I would like to discuss with you."

Although his voice was old, it was full of energy and could be heard clearly by everyone.

A few breezes blew by, and a few golden leaves fell on the square.

Sun Wukong nodded slightly, looked at Li Chunfeng gently, raised his hand and said, "Master Li, please speak."

Li Chunfeng stroked his beard, his eyes deep, and spoke slowly:
"Great Sage, although the Three Realms have become stable, the barriers between the races still exist. In particular, the relationship between the demon race, the human race, and the immortal race has never been completely harmonious. I think that if we want to truly achieve harmony among the Three Realms, we need to establish a cross-race cooperation organization that is specifically responsible for coordinating conflicts of interest between the races and promoting exchanges and cooperation."

He paused, and glanced at the representatives of various ethnic groups in the audience, with a hint of anticipation in his tone:

"In this way, the misunderstandings and conflicts between the races can be gradually resolved, and peace in the three realms can be truly stable."

A glimmer of approval flashed in Sun Wukong's eyes. Li Chunfeng's proposal coincided with his idea.

He turned to look at Yang Jian and saw that Yang Jian also nodded slightly, obviously agreeing with this proposal.

Nezha stood aside. Although his face was still a little stern, there was a hint of thought in his eyes. It was obvious that he was also seriously considering this proposal.

Just as Sun Wukong was about to express his opinion, a demon representative dressed in gorgeous brocade clothes stood up and said loudly:
"Although what Elder Li said is good, how can the conflicts of interest between the races be resolved so easily? The conflicts between the demon race, the immortal race, and the human race have existed for thousands of years. How can one organization solve them?"

Li Chunfeng smiled slightly. He was not angry at the other party's questioning. Instead, he responded calmly:

"What this fellow Taoist said is not without reason, but it is precisely because the conflicts between the various ethnic groups are deep-rooted that we need a platform for cooperation. If we always act independently and do not interact with each other, the conflicts will only become deeper and deeper. Only through continuous exchanges and communication can we gradually eliminate misunderstandings."

The representatives in the audience began to discuss in low voices. Some nodded in agreement, while others frowned in thought. It was obvious that they had different opinions on Li Chunfeng's proposal.

The Bull Demon King stood aside, stroking his beard, with a thoughtful look in his eyes.

He took a step forward and said loudly:

"What Li Laoxian proposed does make sense, but how can we ensure the fairness of this organization? If we favor one tribe, it might cause even greater conflicts."

Li Chunfeng nodded and responded:
"What the Bull Demon King said is absolutely right. Therefore, this organization must be composed of all races, and each race must have an equal voice. At the same time, the decision-making mechanism within the organization must also be open and transparent to ensure that the interests of each race are treated fairly."

Yang Jian also stepped forward and stood beside Li Chunfeng, adding in a calm tone:

"Not only that, this organization must also establish a supervision mechanism to prevent any one clan from becoming too powerful and affecting the fairness of the organization. At the same time, the selection of personnel within the organization must also be strictly evaluated to ensure that they have sufficient fairness and responsibility."

The representatives in the audience nodded one after another, obviously agreeing with Yang Jian's supplement. Nezha also spoke at this time:

“The establishment of an institution is certainly important, but how can we ensure its execution? If there are disagreements within the institution and decisions are delayed in implementation, then it will probably be just empty talk.”

Li Chunfeng smiled slightly, with a bit of confidence in his eyes:

"General Nezha's concerns are not without reason. Therefore, a special executive department must be set up within the organization to be responsible for implementing various decisions. At the same time, the executive department must work closely with the administrative agencies of each ethnic group to ensure that decisions can be implemented quickly."

The representatives' discussions gradually subsided, and it was obvious that Li Chunfeng's proposal had received support from many people.

Seeing this, Sun Wukong smiled slightly and said loudly:

"Mr. Li's proposal is very good. We might as well have further discussions on this to see how to truly establish this institution and ensure that it can play its due role."

Li Chunfeng nodded slightly, with a bit of relief in his tone:

"The great sage is wise."

Just as everyone was about to continue the discussion, a representative of the human race wearing a Taoist robe stood up from the stage, with a questioning tone in his voice:

"Li Laoxian, your proposal is good, but how can we ensure that all tribes are willing to cooperate? Especially those powerful tribes, are they willing to abide by the resolution of the organization?"

Li Chunfeng remained calm when he heard this. He looked at the other person gently and said slowly:

"What this fellow Daoist said is indeed a key issue. Therefore, the establishment of an institution not only requires the joint participation of all races, but also the support of the laws of the Three Realms. Only by binding the resolutions of the institution to the laws of the Three Realms can we ensure that all races are willing to abide by and implement them."

Yang Jian also added at this time:

"Not only that, we also need to establish a reward and punishment mechanism. For tribes that actively cooperate with the organization, we will give them certain resources or policy support; for those that refuse to cooperate, we need to take corresponding punishment measures. Only in this way can we ensure the authority of the organization."

The representatives in the audience nodded one after another, obviously agreeing with Yang Jian's addition.

The Bull Demon King also spoke at this time:

"Your Excellency is right, but we still need to consider how to prevent the organization from being controlled by certain forces. If the organization is controlled by one or several tribes, it may cause greater conflicts."

Li Chunfeng smiled slightly, with a look of deep meaning in his eyes:

"What Bull Demon King said does make sense. Therefore, a multi-party check and balance mechanism must be established within the organization to ensure that the interests of each clan are treated fairly. At the same time, the decision-making within the organization must be open and transparent and subject to supervision by all clans in the three realms."

The discussion in the audience sounded again, and the representatives obviously had a deeper understanding and recognition of Li Chunfeng's proposal.

Nezha also nodded slightly at this time, obviously agreeing with Li Chunfeng's plan.

Seeing this, Sun Wukong smiled slightly and said loudly:

"In that case, we might as well put Li Laoxian's proposal as the first topic, and then discuss the specific implementation details later. What do you think?"

The representatives in the audience nodded in agreement.

Yang Jian also stepped forward at this time and said in a calm tone:
"Great Sage, I suggest setting up a special team to be responsible for the preparation of the organization. Li Laoxian, Bull Demon King, Nezha and others can participate together to ensure that the establishment of the organization can proceed smoothly."

Sun Wukong nodded, with some approval in his eyes:

"Master Erlang is absolutely right. I'll leave this matter to you to arrange."

Yang Jian nodded solemnly, then turned to look at Li Chunfeng, Bull Demon King and Nezha, and said in a steady tone:

"Everyone, we will start the preparatory work immediately and build the framework of the organization as soon as possible."

Li Chunfeng nodded slightly, with a look of expectation in his eyes:

"I always trust you when you do things."

Thus, the matter was settled.
