Conferred Gods: Start with a Phoenix clone

Chapter 285 Phoenix Ascends to Heaven as an Official
Haotian has practiced for 1,750 Yuanhui, and his skill in cultivating Qi has been practiced to the extreme. The great calamity of Conferred Gods enveloped the three realms, but it had no effect on him at all. Phoenix retreated to advance, and he also calmed down.

Haotian turned the Haotian Mirror again. This innate spiritual treasure bestowed by the Taoist ancestor could observe the entire Three Realms, and seeing a phoenix was no problem.

As the Red Luan Star appeared brightly in the Haotian Mirror, some things that were previously hidden instantly surfaced. There was no need for divination. He only needed to take a glance and understand the whole story.

It would have been fine if he didn't know, but once he knew, it only took him a moment to realize that the problem was with Yue Lao.

Yue Lao, Fu Yuanxianweng!
As for whether there is another mastermind behind this, we can’t see it.

He did not continue to investigate. Such a thing involving himself could be done secretly and concealed from his detection for several years. This matter was far beyond the level of Fu Yuanxianweng. It must be the work of a saint.

Who exactly? It's hard to say.

In his opinion, the Three Pure Ones and the Two Saints of the West were all suspects.

After putting away the Haotian Mirror, he called Taibai Jinxing again, and the king and his ministers discussed the matter.

"This is too much! Longji is my daughter!" Haotian suppressed his anger. Several times he had the idea of ​​going to Zixiao Palace again and asking Daozu to investigate the matter thoroughly, but in the end he suppressed it.

The Taoist master has become one with the Tao, and his personal feelings have become increasingly indifferent. The little affection that Haotian had when he was a boy is becoming less and less with each use.

Taibai Jinxing waited until he calmed down before whispering, "Your Majesty, we shouldn't delve into this matter further. Our previous approach was indeed inappropriate, but now the time is ripe. I believe the person who tied the bell must untie it."

What was the solution last time? What was the solution last time?
Haotian thought for a while. This kind of riddle-like conversation between the monarch and his subjects was very tiring, but in order to avoid the attention from some saints, he had to be extremely careful.

He finally remembered that the last time they talked about this topic was because of the incident caused by Zhu Tianlin, and the emperor and his ministers were planning to summon Deng Chanyu to heaven to serve as an official.

Haotian stroked his long beard and said, "My dear minister, your words make sense. This plan is feasible."

Before, Deng Chanyu’s cultivation was too low, and she could not serve as an official in heaven. Now that she is a true immortal, this cultivation is more than enough for her to serve as an official in heaven.

Directly recruiting Deng Chanyu to the Heavenly Court, but giving her such a lowly position would be disrespectful to the Saint Nuwa. You're giving me, my only disciple, a lowly position? Come, take my Mountain, River, State, and State Map!

If the official position given is too high, Haotian will not be willing to accept it.

When Deng Chanyu was in the celestial realm, Taibai Jinxing had suggested recruiting her to serve as an official in heaven, but Haotian felt that it was difficult to arrange, so he dropped the idea.

It is indeed difficult to arrange for Deng Chanyu, but it is easier to arrange for Fenghuang, who is a "wild immortal".

Taibai Jinxing said something very right: the person who tied the bell must untie it. It would be more appropriate for Nuwa, who is in charge of marriage, to handle the matter concerning Longji.

"Please trouble you to make the trip."

"The minister obeys the order."

Phoenix was still fortune-telling when he felt a slight movement in his heart. He immediately walked out of the Fire Cloud Cave and saw Taibai Jinxing coming on a cloud with a happy face.

She didn't bother with small talk and went straight to the point: "This matter is urgent. Princess Longji could be in trouble at any time. Old Star Lord, let's cut to the chase, shall we?"

"Okay, I'll do as you say." Taibai Jinxing didn't know what her current situation was, so he kept a low profile.

Phoenix asked, "But what clues did the Great Celestial Venerable find?"

Taibai Jinxing smiled gently and said, "To be honest, Your Majesty has found some clues, but the matter involves the Empress Nuwa Palace. Therefore, I would like to invite you to ascend to heaven as an official. With the responsibilities of the Heavenly Court, you can then legitimately investigate this matter." Fenghuang thought Haotian was quite efficient. She was still pondering, but it seemed that the other side had already found the key to the problem. She glanced at Fuxi, who nodded, implying that she should just follow Haotian's instructions.

"May I ask what your official position is, Old Star Lord?"

Taibai Jinxing smiled. The personalities of this Fenghuang and Deng Chanyu were really different. She was too straightforward, a bit uncomfortable with her straightforwardness.

"The official position must be granted by His Majesty himself. Will you please come with me to Heaven to report the decree?"

It's really troublesome! Phoenix doesn't like these messy social events and so-called procedures, but when something happens to her main body, she has to take over.

He returned the River Map and Luoshu to Fuxi, and rode the clouds to heaven with Taibai Jinxing.

It was still the familiar side hall of the Lingxiao Palace, but this time there was no general who rolled up the curtain.

"Your Majesty, I have summoned the immortal Six Phoenixes to heaven and have come to deliver your instructions."

This name is not a Taoist name, but something that was thought up on the road. Fenghuang herself has lost all her memories, so who knows what her ranking is? Since she is the sixth on Jinwu's side, let's name her Liu.

Haotian seemed to be blind and asked majestically, "Who is Liu Feng?"

Phoenix cursed the red tape inwardly and took two quick steps: "Greetings to the Great Celestial Lord, I am Liu Feng."

Haotian seemed to have finally regained his normal vision at this time. He looked at Taibai Jinxing and said, "Well, you are indeed a person with great fortune. My dear, is there any position vacant in the Heavenly Court that Liufeng can take up?"

There are vacancies everywhere in the Heavenly Court now. If there were no vacancies, why would there be any need to make a list of gods?

Taibai Jinxing pretended to think for a while, and Fenghuang urged him with his eyes, "I'm so anxious, why don't you speed up the process?"

He then spoke, "Your Majesty, the union of yin and yang brings all things into being. This is a matter of paramount importance in the Three Realms. Zi and Chou combine, Yin and Hai combine, Mao and Xu combine, Chen and You combine, Si and Shen combine, and Wu and Wei combine. This is the law of nature. This old minister believes that fellow Daoist Liu Feng can assume the position of Six Harmonies Star Lord."

Taibai Jinxing glanced at Fenghuang and said, "Look at you! You were the one who named yourself Liufeng! If you were called Wufeng or Qifeng, it would be inappropriate for you to be the Lord of Liuhe Stars. What's going on now? This is God's will!"
Haotian also sensed that there seemed to be a mysterious divine will in this, and immediately looked at the phoenix, as if to ask, are you satisfied?

Phoenix: “.”

After all this commotion, how did the position of Liuhe Xingjun, which Deng Chanyu held after his death in the original time and space, end up in my place?!

"Your Majesty, may I ask, is there something wrong with your marriage?"

Haotian nodded silently.

Phoenix pondered for a moment, and after thinking carefully, there was nothing wrong with this official position. Nuwa was in charge of marriage, and now there was a problem with the marriage on the main body's side. If he wanted her to investigate, he had to give her an official position in this area.

There are indeed vacancies in positions such as the Thunder Department, Fire Department, and Water Department, but they have nothing to do with marriage.

Fenghuang felt that this was God's will, and she had to take up the position of "Six-Harmony Star Lord". In the original time and space, Deng Chanyu took up the position after her death, but now it was her clone who took up the position while she was still alive. That was the only difference.

"My lord, accept the order!"
