At this time, the powerful Luo Mo heard a voice saying, "Didn't Sakyamuni say that Fang Jian was an orphan? How come he has a mother again?"

The great Dharmarakshatra said in a voice transmission: "It seems that Sakyamuni lied."

While the two were talking, although Tathagata Buddha had a smile on his face, he actually felt a little strange in his heart. Logically speaking, with his own level of Taoism, he could not have been unaware of the fact that Dou Mu Yuanjun had conceived Fang Jian. However, this secret had been kept secret all along, and even the Supreme Taoist Ancestor did not know about it. If Tai Yuan Taoist Ancestor had not taken the initiative to reveal this matter, this secret would probably have been hidden for countless years.

But at this moment, Daozu Taiyuan cast an indifferent gaze towards Dali Luomo and Dafa Luomo. The two of them felt a chill all over their bodies, as if Daozu Taiyuan had seen through them. They dared not speak anymore and immediately fell silent and stood in silence.

At this moment in the Lingxiao Palace, the eyes of countless immortals and gods were focused on Fang Jian and Taiyuan Daozu.

At this moment, Fang Jian showed hesitation and doubt for the first time in his life towards the words of the Jade Emperor. Everyone could see that Fang Jian was very unwilling to acknowledge his relationship.

This again left everyone feeling incredulous. Daozu, that was Daozu! As long as she was willing, she could make you a Hunyuan Wuji Daluo Jinxian with a wave of her hand! Fang Jian was still unwilling. Everyone was deeply troubled and upset. Some immortal officials even thought: If it were me, I would have run up and cried for my mother long ago.

The atmosphere seemed to be somewhat stagnant. After Yu Luan recovered from her shock, she was also happy for Fang Jian. So when she saw Fang Jian hesitate, she said, "Emperor Fang Hongqing, the Great Celestial Venerable has come personally to do this favor, and you still don't accept the order to recognize your relationship?"

Fang Jian looked up at Yu Luan, and saw that Yu Luan's face was full of smiles and her eyes were full of encouragement.

Fang Jian retracted his gaze and looked at Taiyuan Daozu again. He saw that Taiyuan Daozu's originally cold and ruthless face immediately became gentle when he looked at Fang Jian.

In the end, Fang Jian finally obeyed Yu Luan's words and received the order from the Great Celestial Venerable. He flew before Tai Yuan Daozu. Because he was wearing the imperial robes of the Heavenly Court, he could not kneel, so he could only bow and kowtow, saying, "I am Fang Jian, the child, greeting my mother."

The next moment, led by the Five Imperial Emperors, all the gods from Heaven, Taoism, Buddhism, and even the Demon Sect bowed their heads and congratulated, "Congratulations to the Grandmother and Son of the Taoist Mother Taiyuan on their reunion."

Taoist Taiyuan looked at Fang Jian who was bowing before him, and slowly stood up from the throne. He walked forward in his Taoist robes, grasped Fang Jian's wrists tightly with both hands, and said, "Jian'er, there is no need for such formalities between you and me as mother. Stand up."

The call of "Jian'er" was extremely gentle, as if all the dusty memories of the mother and son when they were on Earth came flooding back like a tide. Fang Jian's body trembled slightly. He forced himself to suppress his emotions, then stood up straight with an expressionless face, looking directly at Taiyuan Daozu.

Taiyuan Daozu smiled slightly, then his body turned into a mist, and in the blink of an eye he was sitting back on the throne.

Fang Jian also bowed to Taiyuan Daozu again, then turned around and returned to his throne as emperor.

"Thank you all fellow Taoists. Please don't be so polite." After Taiyuan Daozu sat down, he spoke slowly to the immortals and gods who came to congratulate him.

Then the immortals and gods waived their formalities and stood upright. At this time, Taiyuan Daozu thanked the Jade Emperor, and the Jade Emperor said with a smile: "Fang Jian is my important minister. It is a pleasure for me to see him recognize his son today. Daozu has no need to thank me."

Taiyuan Daozu nodded to the Jade Emperor, bowed his head, and then sat upright on the throne without saying anything more.

At this time, the Jade Emperor spoke again, "I have conferred the title of Fang Jian upon him, and have given him full authority to oversee the re-establishment of the Heavenly Court's regulations. From now on, I will cultivate myself in the Taiwei Yuqing Palace, suppressing and dissolving the calamity forces beneath the Heavenly Dao. I will not appear in public except for the Grand Yuan Ceremony and the enthronement of the Great Emperor."

Then the Jade Emperor began to arrange the Five Imperial Guards: "Ziwei Emperor of the North Pole of the Central Sky."

The Purple Star Emperor immediately responded and bowed, saying, "Your Majesty is here."

The Jade Emperor said, "I appoint you as the Lord of Heaven and grant you the title of 'Cang Tian'."

Upon hearing this, the Purple Star Emperor immediately bowed and said, "Your Majesty will obey the order."

Whether it is the Lord of Heaven or the title of Heaven, these are part of the authority of the Jade Emperor. Now the Jade Emperor has bestowed these two powers on the Emperor of Purple Star.

But this does not mean that the Jade Emperor is not the Lord of Heaven. The Jade Emperor also has the title of Supreme Lord of Heaven and Ruler of the Three Realms. This title is much higher than that of 'Lord of Heaven' and 'Heaven'.

In general, the Jade Emperor gave Fang Jian enough authority to override the Five Emperors, so he must use his own authority to compensate the Five Emperors.

But there is a deeper meaning to doing so, which is that although these powers are great, they are "empty" most of the time, which means they will not be in charge of specific affairs.

So in this case, although Wu Yu has great power, precisely because of its power, it will not conflict with Fang Jian's authority.

This also shows that the Jade Emperor was determined to re-establish the rules of Heaven this time, and he even asked the Five Imperial Emperors to give way to Fang Jian's power.

At the same time, the reason why he wanted to do a favor by allowing Taiyuan Daozu and Fang Jian to recognize their mother and son was not entirely out of his concern for Fang Jian as a minister, but because after Fang Jian and Taiyuan Daozu recognized their son and son, there would be less resistance in doing things in the future. After all, no matter what, Fang Jian would always have the title of "Son of Daozu" on his head wherever he went in the future.

Whether Fang Jian wanted to admit it or not, he already possessed the greatest background under the Heavenly Dao...
