Honghuang: It makes sense that there are four Sanqing, right?

Circulating his divine power, Xu Qing extended his vision to the entire primordial world, where all living beings knelt in submission, none standing.

Xu Qing spoke solemnly, and at the same time, a golden image of Xu Qing quietly appeared outside the Lingxiao Palace.

When the essence and the law are the same, the mouth opens.

"The primordial world was created by the great god Pangu; I am but a descendant. How can I possibly become the master of the primordial world?"

Yuanshi Randeng and Tongtian bowed again.

"The Dao Lord possesses immeasurable merit and great supernatural powers. He commands all the saints of the Primordial World and is the number one person in the Primordial World."

"In the primordial world, the strong prey on the weak, and countless living beings live in constant fear, because the primordial world has no master."

"How could the Daoist Master bear this?"

The three voices were loud and clear, using supernatural powers. Not only could everyone in the Lingxiao Palace hear them clearly, but all the primordial creatures outside could also hear their words.

"My mind is made up; this is absolutely unacceptable."

Xu Qing's Dharma form and his true form spoke simultaneously once again, their expressions sincere and even serious, truly showing their deepest feelings.

Jieyin, Nuwa, Fuxi, Zhenyuanzi, and the others looked at each other and felt that the time had come. So they all stepped forward and bowed again.

"I hope the Daoist Master will have mercy on the creatures of the primordial world."

Xu Qing snorted coldly and said angrily.

"All living beings in the primordial world are born of nature and nurtured by the earth; they are free and unfettered creatures. How can they be subject to any master?"

By this time, many primordial beings had begun to admire Xu Qing's integrity, and some even spontaneously knelt down and kowtowed, pleading, "We hope that the Dao Lord will have mercy on the primordial beings."

One stone stirs up a thousand waves; once someone speaks, others quickly respond, spreading from near to far until it reaches the entire prehistoric world before stopping.

First came the Asura race, then the human race, and then the demon race, followed by the dragon, phoenix, and qilin races...

Finally, all living beings in the primordial world shouted in unison.

"I hope the Daoist Master will have mercy on the creatures of the primordial world."

A roar like a mountain collapsing and a tsunami erupted. The anger on Xu Qing's face, both his physical body and his Dharma form, gradually dissipated, finally turning into a faint sorrow as he spoke.

"Very well, since you have such high expectations, I will gladly serve as the one who coordinates the prehistoric creatures and allocates resources."

"However... the title 'Lord of the Primordial World' is really inappropriate; please don't use it again in the future."

Before Xu Qing's voice had even finished, the voice of Daoist Ran Deng immediately rang out from the primordial world.

"Xu Qingdao Master is the one who has gone the furthest and fastest among the cultivators of the prehistoric world, and can be called the Dao Pioneer."

As soon as Ran Deng finished speaking, the people of Lingxiao Palace, already familiar with the procedure, shouted in unison, "Greetings, Dao Xian."

The sound traveled throughout the primordial world, and it was shouted.

"Greetings, Daoxian!"

Xu Qing looked distressed and sighed.

"Oh, you've really put me in a difficult position. Oh well, oh well, oh well! I'll just do this dish first."

The crowd shouted again.

"Greetings, Daoxian."

"Fellow Daoists, all beings of the primordial world, please rise."

"Thank you first."

Then, all the primordial beings and the immortals and gods in the Lingxiao Palace stood up. Suddenly, a voice rang in Xu Qing's mind, "Young man, come to the Pangu Palace to find me."

Xu Qing remained calm, and the wedding ceremony continued, with a harmonious and beautiful atmosphere throughout the Lingxiao Palace.

Three more months passed, the wedding ended, and everyone in Lingxiao Palace dispersed to return to their respective residences. Let's leave that aside for now.

Xu Qing then returned to the Reincarnation Palace with Houtu.

However, at this time, the Reincarnation Abode had been renamed the Green Earth Abode, named by Houtu and written by Xu Qing himself on the plaque.

Barring unforeseen circumstances, Xu Qing will live here with Hou Tu for a long time. Since Kunlun Mountain, Xu Qing has once again found a stable place to settle down in the prehistoric world.

On this day, Xu Qing spoke to Houtu about the voice he had heard in his mind that day.

"Houtu, on the day of the wedding, after I made all the beings of the primordial world stand up, a voice suddenly rang in my mind, 'Young man, come to Pangu Palace to find me.'"

Xu Qing sat in the backyard of Qingtu Residence, looking at the stunningly beautiful Houtu in his arms, and said.

Hearing this, Houtu asked in confusion.

"Who is it? We're standing together, and he's trying to communicate with you telepathically, but I haven't responded. I even went to the Pangu Palace to look for him... Could it be a remnant soul of the Father God?"

Xu Qing shook his head.

"I didn't know, that's why I came to ask you. I also suspect that you are the Great God Pangu. Your origin is Pangu's essence and blood, and you also lived in the Pangu Palace for hundreds of millions of years."

"You know nothing either? For example, what kind of restrictions or taboos exist in the Pangu Palace?"

Houtu sighed.

"You are the embodiment of the Father God's seven emotions, and your two elder brothers are the Father God's primordial spirits. If there are any remnants of your souls, they should be in your inherited memories."

"As for the Pangu Palace, I have lived there with my eleven brothers for so long, and there has really been nothing unusual."

"If it were because I didn't have a primordial spirit to sense it back then, that would be one thing, but I revisited the place after I became a saint, and even now I haven't found anything."

Xu Qing breathed a sigh of relief and laughed.

"That's good. If even you haven't noticed anything unusual, then either it's a contingency plan left by the Great God Pangu, or there's nothing unusual at all."

"I was worried that some chaotic demon god might have tampered with the Pangu Palace, but now it seems that the one speaking must be the great god Pangu himself."

Houtu then said, "Then you should go."

Xu Qing nodded.

"That's right, I also have many things I want to ask him. The Jade Disc of Creation has been refined, so perhaps Fellow Daoist Taiyi will be resurrected soon. There's also the matter of the Myriad Wonders Ultimate Intent Sect..."

Xu Qing said a lot, and then continued.

"Why don't you come with me?"

Houtu shook her head again.

"No one told me to go to the Pangu Palace to find him. Maybe if I go, he won't show up."

"The great god Pangu is elusive, so it's wise to be careful. I will consult him, and I will tell you everything I can."

Xu Qing nodded in agreement after hearing Hou Tu's words, and then lowered his head to kiss Hou Tu.

"Wait for me to come back."

"Okay, I'll wait for you to come back."

The two parted ways, with Houtu sitting quietly in Qingtu Residence waiting, while Xu Qing flew towards Pangu Palace.

Reaching the foot of Buzhou Mountain, Xu Qing concealed his aura, not wanting to be discovered, and quietly walked to the entrance of Pangu Palace.

"Xu Qing has come here at the invitation of the emperor. May I ask if you are the great god Pangu? If so, you should accept my bow."

The gates of the Pangu Temple remained tightly shut, and there was no response whatsoever, not even a single sound came from it.

"senior?"

"Then I'll go in myself."

Xu Qing waited outside the door for three days, and finally, unable to contain his curiosity, he chose to enter the Pangu Palace directly.

After showering down a golden rain of merit and absorbing the power of the wishes of all living beings in the primordial world, Xu Qing's strength broke through again, reaching the level of a twentieth saint.

This level of strength ranks among the top ten throughout history, comparable to the Space Demon God at his peak, who was probably only around the level of a Thirty Saint at his peak.

Even if there really was a contingency plan left behind by the Chaos God before the creation of the world, Xu Qing didn't believe that it could have injured him after so long.

Apart from the fully-fledged Hongjun and Pangu, no one in the primordial world should be able to do this.
