People in Conferred Gods: Rising from humble beginnings, I am the God of Wealth

Chapter 108 Haotian delegates power to confer the title of First Rank, and the chance for enlightenment lies in Yang Xuan!

Lingxiao Palace.

"Ahem! I have admired Your Majesty for a long time..."

Looking at the increasingly strange looks of Shan Jun and the others, Yang Xuan couldn't help but cough twice and gave them a reminder, hoping that this would divert their attention.

"Admire?"

Lei Yun was slightly stunned at first, then he suddenly realized something, bowed deeply to Haotian again, and said with a sincere look on his face:
"What the Great Celestial Venerable said is true. We have admired Your Majesty for a long time. We hope Your Majesty can give us a chance to atone for our sins and allow us to join the Heavenly Court and become minor gods. We will be loyal to our duties, perform our duties as gods in the Heavenly Court, benefit all living beings in the prehistoric world, and promote the majesty of our Heavenly Court!"

"I hope that Your Majesty can give us a chance to atone for our sins and allow us to join the Heavenly Court and become minor gods. We will be loyal to our duties, perform our duties as gods in the Heavenly Court, benefit all living beings in the prehistoric world, and promote the majesty of our Heavenly Court!!"

Shan Jun and the other two also hurriedly saluted and echoed the words, fearing that if Haotian was unhappy, he would use them as an example to scare the monkeys and demonstrate the majesty of the Heavenly Court.

At the same time, they felt even more grateful towards Yang Xuan.

The Great Celestial Master is such a good man. If it weren’t for his reminder, our sincerity would not have been enough and we would not have been able to satisfy Haotian.

Haotian will surely kill us all to demonstrate the majesty of Heaven, and even our clansmen and disciples will suffer!

Great Heavenly Venerable, have mercy on me! Great Heavenly Venerable, have mercy on me! ! !

Haotian:......

I'm just busy, not stupid, okay!
You people, you’re lucky enough not to have not called me a disgrace to the quasi-saint in private, and you even admire me?

Haotian's expression remained unchanged, but he kept complaining in his heart.

In order to maintain the operation of Heaven and repair the ancient starry sky, it is indeed difficult for him to leave Heaven. It has even been hundreds of years and he has no time to practice and attain enlightenment. It can be said that his life is quite miserable.

It was only in the years since Yang Xuan ascended to heaven that their situation became slightly better with the help of many righteous gods in heaven to maintain the operation of heaven. They could spare some time to collect resources from the ancient starry sky and fill the treasure house of heaven.

But this does not mean that he does not know what the prehistoric beings think of him. The power of the Emperor of Heaven can monitor the prehistoric beings.

He knew that many creatures in the ancient world now thought that he was a disgrace to the quasi-saints. He had the cultivation of a quasi-saint, but could only struggle to maintain the operation of the heavens and repair the ancient starry sky, and he had no freedom.

At the beginning, when he heard these words, he wished that a bolt of lightning would strike down from the sky to let these creatures know that the majesty of the Emperor of Heaven cannot be challenged, and to let all living beings in the prehistoric world know that he is not a disgrace to the quasi-saints, but a strong one among the quasi-saints!
But after thinking about it, he gave up. What's the point of doing this? Not only can it not change the current situation of the Heavenly Court, but it will make the prehistoric creatures more resistant to the Heavenly Court. His plan to recruit immortals and gods and let the Heavenly Court operate independently will become even more distant.

Later on, he simply focused all his attention on maintaining the operation of the Heavenly Palace and repairing the ancient Heavenly Palace, and no longer cared about the affairs of the ancient times.

This is also a big part of the reason why there has been no major changes in the Heavenly Palace for hundreds of years.

Now, seeing Shan Jun and others paying homage to him with great ceremony and saying things that were inconsistent with their thoughts, Haotian felt a sense of inexplicable pleasure while being speechless.

If the cultivation level of this golden body was not strong enough, it would probably not be able to suppress the upturned corners of his mouth!

“You know what, this feeling is really refreshing. If one day in the future, all the creatures in the prehistoric world can respectfully say to me - Praise the Lord of Heaven, that feeling…”

As he thought about it, Haotian couldn't help but reveal a hint of anticipation in his eyes, and he subconsciously glanced at Yang Xuan.

"With you here, perhaps there will be such a day. You have only been in heaven for less than a Yuanhui, and you have already recruited more than two million low-level immortals, six Daluo Jinxians, and two Quasi-Saints for the Heavenly Court."

"If I give him more time and more authority, I won't need to worry about the Heavenly Court anymore. With the help of the gods in the Heavenly Court, the Heavenly Court can operate autonomously."

"It can even maintain the order of the prehistoric world and play the role that the Heavenly Court should play, becoming the true orthodoxy of the prehistoric world."

"It's just that my dear, your speed of cultivation..."

Thinking of this, Haotian shook his head and smiled. In less than one Yuanhui, he would enter the Taiyi Golden Fairyland. This speed of cultivation could be considered fast even among the saints' sects.

However, everything Yang Xuan did was difficult to connect with the Golden Immortal. Even the Daluo Golden Immortal could hardly do it, so that Haotian subconsciously ignored this point.

"What do you think, my dear?"

Haotian did not answer Shanjun and others, but looked at Yang Xuan and asked for his opinion.

After all, these people were involved in the plot against Yang Xuan, and Haotian is not sure what Yang Xuan is thinking now.

If it were him, he would definitely kill all these people.

So he didn't know whether Yang Xuan hoped that he could kill all these people with his quasi-saint cultivation, or whether Yang Xuan was really broad-minded and selfless, and would not care about the grudges here in order to add four Daluo to the Heavenly Court.

"Reply to Your Majesty!"

Yang Xuan bowed and spoke the words he had prepared long ago.

"I think that the actions of Shan Jun and others have damaged the dignity of the Heavenly Court. If they are not dealt with severely, more prehistoric creatures will plot against the Heavenly Court's gods in the future."

"The spirit of the Golden Immortal is immortal and will last forever. Simply killing them would be too easy for them."

"If we can get them to join the Heavenly Court, we can not only trap them in the Heavenly Court for eternity, so that all living beings in the prehistoric world know the price of offending the Heavenly Court, but we can also recycle waste and help maintain the operation of the Heavenly Court. It's like killing two birds with one stone!"

"If Your Majesty is still not satisfied, you can also recruit their tribes and disciples into the Heavenly Court and have them work for us forever!"

At the end, Yang Xuan deliberately sneered, showing his acting skills to the fullest.

Don’t you like to imagine things at will? I will just be the villain. I don’t believe you can come up with anything else in your imagination.

However, what Yang Xuan didn't know was that Shan Jun and the others were already so moved that they were almost crying.

"Great Celestial Venerable is so merciful that in order to save our lives, he did not hesitate to damage his own reputation and act as such a narrow-minded, sinister and cunning villain!!"

If Haotian had not been watching, they would even want to give Yang Xuan a big gift and swear to follow his lead from now on.

As for the matter of their spiritual treasure being taken away, although they were still reluctant, they had come to terms with it.

Yang Xuan relied on his own abilities to take away their spiritual treasures, so there is no reason for him to return them. This rule applies no matter where this matter happens.

Besides, they were the ones who plotted against Yang Xuan first, so it was perfectly reasonable for Yang Xuan to take an innate spiritual treasure to settle the cause and effect.

On the other hand, Yang Xuan could have relied on his own strength to snatch one of their spiritual treasures, and then he could have ended the cause and effect there and left them to Haotian to deal with without getting involved in the matter anymore.

As a result, Yang Xuan not only gave them advice, but also spoke well of them in front of Haotian, and even their disciples and clansmen were not left out.

This act of repaying evil with kindness completely conquered Shan Jun and others, and they all made up their minds.

As long as I can survive this disaster and join the Heavenly Court, I will be loyal to Yang Xuan in the future, fully support all his orders, and clear all obstacles for him within my ability!
In order to prevent Yang Xuan's plan from failing, they did not show anything unusual. Everyone lowered their heads to Haotian with a respectful look and a look of submission.

Yang Xuan, Haotian and others did not notice anything unusual in their hearts.

After a moment of silence, Haotian smiled slightly:
"Then I'll do as you say. Shanjun and the other three will be at your disposal from now on."

"Your Majesty, what about their divine thrones?"

Yang Xuan felt a little uneasy. Could it be that Haotian was thinking...

"My dear minister, as the Great Lord of Fortune and Law of the Nine Heavens Immortal Scrolls of the Heavenly Court, I will leave this small matter to you to handle."

Yang Xuan: ...No, even if Shan Jun and the other three were guilty, they were still Golden Immortals. With the state of Heaven, how could pardoning and enfeoffing Golden Immortals be a small matter?
You are being too much of a hands-off boss, aren't you? If you keep going like this, won't everything fall on my shoulders?

No!

If this happens, how can I be a salted fish in heaven and be an ordinary god of wealth quietly?

"Your Majesty, this is a disciple of Jiejiao, a disciple of the saint, Bixiao from Sanxiao Island."

Yang Xuan pulled Bi Xiao to his side and introduced her:
"After arriving at the Heavenly Palace, Lady Bixiao realized that it was not easy for Your Majesty to maintain the Heavenly Palace, and she was willing to join the Heavenly Palace and do her part."

"I returned to Jin'ao Island and got the approval of the saint. I want to go to heaven to serve as an official and seek a position as a god. I also ask Your Majesty to grant the queen a pardon and title!"

Yang Xuan bowed and sneered in his heart.

I am a disciple of the saint. You can't push Bixiao's pardon to me, right?

However, Haotian actually did so.

After hearing what Yang Xuan said, Haotian was stunned for a moment, and then his expression became a little strange, both happy and worried.

Bixiao is a celebrity in Jiejiao, and even Haotian has heard of her. Although she is only an outer disciple, she is deeply loved by Tongtian, who bestows upon her the Golden Dragon Shears, a precious weapon for killing.

The disciples of Jiejiao had to be courteous to her when they saw her, out of respect for the saint and also out of fear of the golden shears in her hand.

Even if a Daluo Jinxian was cut by the Golden Dragon Shears, his body would be injured and it would not be pleasant.

It is naturally a good thing for the Heavenly Court to be able to obtain such a powerful Daluo Jinxian, who is also a disciple of a saint.

I am happy because I have ascended to heaven.

Worry is also because of Bixiao.

Haotian had also heard of Bixiao's nickname of the devil of mischief. He didn't believe that Bixiao went to heaven to help him share his worries.

With Bixiao's personality, he must want to go to heaven just for fun, so it's good enough that we don't cause trouble for him.

"Huh? Something's wrong!"

At this moment, Haotian suddenly discovered that Bixiao looked so well-behaved today, and didn't look like a devil at all.

"Is it a rumor?"

As soon as this thought came up, it was rejected by Haotian.

As the saying goes, there are only wrong names, but no wrong nicknames. The whole East China Sea knows that Bixiao is the devil of confusion, so how could this be false?
"That's all because of you, my dear. I don't know how you did it, but you actually made Bixiao listen to you."

"Perhaps even Bixiao's ascension to heaven was due to him. Incredible, really incredible!"

Haotian was filled with emotion, and then showed a look of joy.

Bixiao is a disciple of a saint. Even when he personally showed up, he was unable to invite any of the saint's disciples to heaven.

Now that Tongtian has agreed to allow Bixiao to go to heaven, this is sending a signal, which can be used as a breakthrough to invite more saint disciples to go to heaven.

However, Haotian did not think much about what to do specifically. Tongtian obviously agreed to let Bixiao go to heaven not because of him. In that case, he naturally did not need to worry about this matter.

Thinking of this, Haotian smiled and nodded at Bixiao, then said to Yang Xuan:

"My dear minister, as the Great Heavenly Venerable of Fortune and Virtue who holds the Nine Heavens Immortal Scrolls, from now on, the pardons and enfeoffments of the First-Rank Gods and below will be fully entrusted to you. There is no need to discuss such trivial matters with me."

Haotian's smile became brighter and brighter. From now on, he had one less thing to do in Heaven, which made him feel happy. His Tao heart became clearer, and even his Taoism skills increased dramatically.

You have to know that he is a quasi-saint. Even the slightest growth is beyond the imagination of a Daluo Jinxian.

Now that his Taoism had suddenly increased, Haotian was stunned where he stood, then a look of sudden realization appeared on his face.

“No wonder the old master said that the position of Heavenly Emperor is both a training and a test. Once you complete the Heavenly Dao test, your cultivation will come naturally. If you go one step further, you will have no worries about becoming a sub-saint in the future, and you will have hope of achieving enlightenment!”

It was not until this time that Haotian understood Hongjun's good intentions.

Maintaining the operation of the Heavenly Palace and repairing the ancient starry sky for countless epochs, such days are indeed hard and there is no freedom. It is not the treatment that a quasi-saint deserves at all.

But aren’t days like this a kind of tempering of one’s spiritual heart?

Even Haotian himself did not realize that after these years of training, his Tao heart had already become as perfect as jade.

At this time, he relaxed a little, no longer bound by the position of Heavenly Emperor as before. The years of training naturally gave him feedback, allowing his Taoism to grow a lot.

“If the Heavenly Court can function normally in the future and completely get rid of the shackles of the Heavenly Emperor, I will definitely be able to kill the evil corpse and become a Quasi-Sage of the Second Corpse!”

Haotian was overjoyed and became more determined to make use of Yang Xuan.

If Yang Xuan had not joined the Heavenly Court, how could the Heavenly Court have changed so much? How could he have realized it so quickly, and how could his cultivation level have improved?
He made up his mind that as soon as Yang Xuan's cultivation reached the Daluo level, he would take Yang Xuan to the Zixiao Palace. Even if he had no chance to hear the Taoist ancestor's preaching, being able to feel the Taoist charm of the Zixiao Palace would be a great opportunity.

There was just one thing that Haotian couldn't understand. He could understand the improvement of cultivation, and beheading the evil corpse was not a problem, but becoming a sub-sage seemed impossible no matter how he looked at it.

The three emperors of the three tribes were able to achieve the sub-saint status because the human race became the protagonist of heaven and earth and consumed infinite human merits, which enabled them to achieve the sub-saint status.

If one day the human race falls from the position of the protagonist of heaven and earth, their cultivation will also be affected.

Even though the status of the Emperor of Heaven is equally high, to become a sub-sage one still needs a huge amount of merit.

Who among the living beings in the ancient times does not know that merits and virtues can be encountered but not sought after, and even a tiny bit of them are extremely precious.

It is not realistic to just stay in heaven and expect to gain merits enough to become a sub-sage.

Haotian racked his brains but couldn't figure out the key to this matter, so he simply stopped thinking about it.

In short, one thing is basically certain, his chance to prove his truth lies in Yang Xuan.

Not to mention anything else, as long as Yang Xuan keeps going like he is now, allowing Heaven to function normally, so that he is no longer bound by the karma of heaven and earth and does not have to maintain the operation of Heaven, he will have the opportunity to kill the evil corpse.

As for the other things that Daozu mentioned, I think they are also related to Heaven.

"Employ people with confidence, and don't employ people you don't trust. Since your heart is in heaven and you are always thinking about heaven, why don't I delegate some of my power to you?"

Haotian's thoughts raced through his mind. It all seemed to take a very long time, but in fact it was just a moment. He had just finished his previous sentence, and before Yang Xuan could react, he added another sentence.

"If you find a living being that matches the status of a first-rank emperor, you can make the decision first. As long as it complies with the rules, I will not object!"

After saying this, Haotian obviously felt a little more relaxed, and his mind became clearer.

It is still this kind of feeling of comfort that someone can share my worries. I really hope that you can grow up soon so that I can hand over the affairs of the Heavenly Palace to you.

Speaking of which, my dear, you are the first person in the prehistoric world to obtain such power in the Golden Immortal Realm. You must be very grateful for my decision!
