Honghuang: Oh no, the Witch Clan Chief has lost his mind!

The group looked at each other.

In the end, everyone turned their attention to Apocalypse.

"Thirteenth Brother, we don't have any good suggestions, so why don't you recommend one?"

If all else fails, then you can take over yourself, little brother!

From now on, Pingxin will take charge of the Earthly Path, and you will take charge of the Heavenly Path. I think that's very suitable!"

Zhu Rong was the first to propose,

Upon hearing this, everyone nodded in agreement, agreeing that Zhu Rong's words made sense.

They all said that they thought so too!

Tianqi's lips twitched, and after a moment's thought, a thought struck him.

He spoke a sentence into the void.

"It's your turn to step in."

No sooner had the words left his mouth than a beam of scorching energy shot out from the direction of the Moon Star.

It landed in front of everyone, transforming into a familiar figure.

This familiar figure was as radiant, bright, and full of life as the sun.

The person who arrived was none other than Tianqi's clone: ​​Xiangyang.

"The original manifestation of the Sun..."

At this moment, Zhu Jiuyin recognized the newcomer's background with a single glance.

"So that's how it is. No wonder when your clone obtained the Heavenly Marriage back then..."

"Our witch clan is fortunate to receive such a large share of the merit!"

Apocalypse nodded and continued,

"Back then, I merged with a wisp of the sun's essence to obtain the Heavenly Marriage Fate and even obtained the Taiyin Star!"

After cultivating on Taiyin Star for so many years, Xiang Yang's cultivation level has reached the peak of the Great Luo Golden Immortal realm.

With another boost from the Sun Star, it will be of great use!

There's no need to worry about rebellion anymore!

As soon as Apocalypse finished speaking, he nodded to his clone.

Facing the sun means sitting cross-legged.

Xiangyang and Tianqi formed hand seals together, and a phantom of a great sun immediately appeared behind them, beginning to echo the distant sun star.

Shortly after, an incredibly hot beam of energy shot out directly from the sun.

In an instant, it enveloped Xiangyang's body.

Without Hongjun's obstruction, and because he had merged with the essence of the sun star within the Fusang Tree,

Xiangyang can now communicate with the Sun Star at will.

He is rapidly increasing his strength using the energy of the sun.

With the infusion of energy, Xiang Yang quickly broke through to the Quasi-Saint realm without any hindrance.

Amidst the stunned gazes of everyone,

Especially in the complex expressions of Di Jun and Tai Yi,

Xiangyang's strength ultimately stopped at the peak of Quasi-Saint level.

After all this, the sun's light seemed to dim a bit.

As the sunlight stabilizes...

Tianqi and Xiangyang spoke at the same time:

"Today, Xiangyang, in the name of the Lord of the Sun Star,"

"Acting on behalf of Heaven, regulating Yin and Yang, and restoring control of the Heavenly Way..."

As Xiangyang's voice faded, the Heavenly Dao, understanding the situation, resonated with it.

A continuous stream of Heavenly Dao authority and Heavenly Dao merit flew out from the primordial world and fell into Xiangyang's body.

These heavenly powers are the portion of the Dao that returned to the world after Hongjun's death and the dissipation of his Dao.

Xiangyang's expression remained unchanged as he began to rapidly merge with the surroundings.

At the same time, it is based on "order", "light" and "vitality".

Reshape the rules of Heaven.

This is a long process.

The saints stood guard to ensure there were no accidents.

Tianqi was also constantly communicating with the primordial protective array, ready to intervene at any time.

To prevent threats from chaos,

Forty-nine days later.

Above the Thirty-Three Heavens, a new palace slowly took shape around the sunlit area.

The new palace is no longer as ancient and simple as the Zixiao Palace.

Instead, it was a magnificent and radiant temple, like the Temple of the Sun.

With the complete fusion of the Heavenly Dao's authority...

In the center of the hall, Xiang Yang suddenly opened his eyes and instantly became a Heavenly Saint!

He's basically taken over from Hongjun!

At this moment, the personal feelings he had for Apocalypse diminished considerably.

The indifference and compassion of Heaven's impartiality have actually increased considerably!

"The Heavenly Dao...has been reorganized."

Xiangyang spoke, his voice resonating like the heavens and earth.

"From this day forward, the first principle of Heaven shall be to maintain the operation of the primordial world and protect all living beings."

The matter of the Great Tribulation should be left to nature, and no further human intervention is needed.

The authority of saints is limited and they must not disturb human affairs without permission.

New rules of Heaven began to cover the primordial world.

All living beings, sensing something, look up at the sky.

Although they didn't know what was going on, they could clearly sense...

The sky over this ancient land is now clearer, and the sunlight is warmer.

"Next, we should go and reclaim the Heavenly Court."

"It's a real waste to make that little boy the ruler of Heaven!"

Tianqi looked down towards the location of the Heavenly Court.

......

Haotian and Yaochi were standing outside the South Heavenly Gate, trembling with fear.

They witnessed the entire process of Hongjun's fall and the reshaping of the Heavenly Dao, and were already terrified out of their wits!

Even his master is gone.

How could those two doormen possibly protect themselves?!

"Haotian, Yaochi."

Xiangyang, or rather, the new incarnation of the Heavenly Dao, spoke.

"During your tenure in the Heavenly Court, you two were mediocre and incompetent, biased and protective of your own, and indulged your cronies, thus losing the virtues of the Heavenly Emperor."

Today, I, in my capacity as the embodiment of Heaven, depose you two from your positions as Jade Emperor and Queen Mother.

Enter the cycle of reincarnation and start anew to accumulate merit.

"No! Dao Ancestor! No, Lord Xiangyang!"

Haotian knelt down and begged.

"We know we were wrong! We beg Your Majesty for mercy; we do not wish to be reborn!"

Yaochi also pleaded:

"We are willing to atone for our crimes by performing meritorious service; we beg your forgiveness, Your Honor!"

But at this moment, Xiangyang's choice is a cruel twist of fate!

He raised his hand and waved.

Haotian Yaochi's body vanished like dust.

The true spirit falls directly into the Netherworld and enters the cycle of reincarnation.

The two will experience ten lifetimes of trials in reincarnation.

If one can cultivate merit again, one may be able to ascend to the path of immortality once more.

If one does not strive diligently in cultivating immortality... then one will be eternally trapped in the six realms of existence.

"Alright, those two guys are done."

But Heaven cannot be without a ruler for even a day, otherwise, with so many people in Heaven, chaos will ensue!

Apocalypse looked at the saints.

"Who do you all think is suitable to become the new ruler of Heaven?"

Upon hearing this, the saints exchanged glances again. This was truly a hot potato; they needed to think it over carefully!

After all, ruling the Heavenly Court may seem glamorous, but in reality, it carries immense responsibility.

Moreover, being bound by the laws of Heaven is not as carefree and joyful as being a sage.

"I have two candidates."

Pingxin said.

"Oh? Please go ahead, Sister Pingxin."

"The position of Jade Emperor can be held by Duobao."

"He was originally the chief disciple of the Jie Sect, but now he holds a sinecure position in Buddhism."

He is knowledgeable, steady, and capable of mediating between various parties.

The disciples of the Jie Sect in Heaven also greatly admired him.

"As for the position of Queen Mother..." she paused.

"Let Duobao choose for himself!"

Otherwise, forcing us to be paired up wouldn't be appropriate!

Everyone nodded in agreement.

If Duobao were to become the Jade Emperor, the Heavenly Court would truly be of one mind.

Our strength will definitely reach a new level!

Perhaps Hongjun never imagined that the biggest winner of the Investiture of the Gods would be the Jie Sect!

"Then it's decided," Xiangyang nodded.

"Duobao's management team is indeed experienced and broad-minded, making them a perfect fit!"

As he spoke, he glanced at Tongtian beside him.

Tongtian nodded slightly, offering no objection.

"That makes perfect sense!" Apocalypse said.

"Then it's settled."

Three days later, the Heavenly Emperor's coronation ceremony will be held, announcing to the primordial world that the Heavenly Court has changed hands!

After everyone made their decision,

Duobao, who was watching from inside the Buddhist temple, was completely dumbfounded!

What's going on?!

I haven't done anything, how come I'm going to become the ruler of Heaven?!
