"The Great Sage Qianjin from Tianding Mountain in Northern Julu Continent has arrived."

"The Great Sage Kunyan of Mount Ku in Uttarakuru has arrived."

"The Great Sage Zhenyuan has arrived from Leiguang Mountain in Northern Julu Continent."

"The Great Sage Lifang from the Huo Liao Mountain of the Northern Continent has arrived."

"The Great Sage Genqing from the outer mountains of Northern Juluzhou has arrived."

"The Great Sage Kanlong from Shuiyinwu, Northern Juluzhou, has arrived."

"The Great Sage Xunlan from Fengxia Mountain in Northern Julu Continent has arrived."

"The Great Sage Dui Liu from Ze Ling Mountain in Northern Julu Continent has arrived."

On Fanqing Peak, as the gods called out their names one by one, the eight powerful demons that Fang Jian had hired from Northern Juluzhou finally arrived.

Fang Jian personally led Tang Yu and others out of the reed hut to welcome them. They saw that the eight powerful men were all wearing Taoist robes, golden crowns on their heads, and dressed like immortals.

"Greetings to Master Hongqing." The eight powerful men bowed to Fang Jian in unison.

Fang Jian laughed heartily, immediately bowed his head in return, and said, "My eight fellow Daoists are so understanding of justice that they have come all the way to Xitianfu to aid us in this battle. This deity is deeply grateful."

The Great Sage Ganjin laughed and said, "Master Hongqing, you are too kind. The eight of us are here for no other reason than to rob the jade."

"Okay!" Fang Jian laughed and said, "Daoist Gan Jin, you are so quick to speak. Come here."

As soon as Fang Jian finished speaking, a divine general came over holding a jade plate, and on the jade plate were eight storage bags.

When the divine general came before the eight great saints holding the jade plate, Fang Jian said, "My eight Taoist friends, each of these storage bags contains 120,000 robbery jades. Please accept them first."

Hearing Fang Jian's words, the eight great saints fixed their gazes, and then looked at the eight storage bags in the jade plate.

Then Great Sage Kunyan said, "I never thought that Master Hongqing would offer four months' betrothal money right away. Such a broad mind is truly admirable."

Fang Jian smiled calmly and said, "Even close brothers have to settle accounts clearly. Since the eight Daoists are willing to come to the West Heaven Palace to help, how can I be stingy with this Jieyu Jade? Please accept it, eight Daoists."

Hearing Fang Jian's words, the eight great saints' expressions grew solemn. They all bowed their heads and said, "Since that's the case, we would be honored to receive your invitation."

Everyone accepted the robbery jade, and then Fang Jian invited everyone to enter the reed hut together.

Everyone sat down in the reed shed, and then the eight great saints looked towards Tang Yu, and then they all bowed to Tang Yu with extremely respectful expressions.

Tang Yu simply nodded, then said, "I am the General of Capture and Killing of the Western Heaven Palace, a general under the command of Master Hongqing. I will only obey Master Hongqing's orders."

The eight great saints were not surprised to hear this. Tang Yu was Fang Jian's "little fanboy", and this was nothing new among the demon clan in the entire Northern Continent.

The reason why Tang Yu said this to the eight people was to tell them not to confuse the relationship between primary and secondary in the future and just obey Fang Jian's orders.

Fang Jian just smiled faintly at Tang Yu's statement. At this time, the general had already brewed the spiritual tea and brought it to the table of everyone present.

At this time, the Great Sage Qianjin said, "Master Hongqing, I heard that the Great Sage Fuhai and the five Jiao Demon Kings are also in Banjie Mountain?"

"Yes," Fang Jian said, "Except for the Bull Demon King and the Monkey King, five of the Seven Great Sages have gathered at Banjie Mountain."

Upon hearing this, Great Sage Zhenyuan laughed and said, "They are the five Great Sages, and we are the eight Great Sages. I wonder who is stronger and who is weaker?"

Upon hearing this, Fang Jian smiled and said, "Those five Great Saints are merely in name only, calling themselves Great Saints because they gather in the mountains and forests. After I have pacified them, I will report this to the Grand Envoy and ask him to formally confer the title of Great Saint upon the eight Daoists."

As Fang Jian finished speaking, the expressions of the Eight Great Sages suddenly changed, and then their eyes gleamed brightly.

If what Fang Jian said could really come true, it would undoubtedly be of great benefit to them. Although the title of "Great Sage" was not a fruit position, the title of "Great Sage" existed in the Heavenly Court, Taoism, and Buddhism.

If the eight of them could obtain the title of "Great Sage" from the Taixuandu Province, it would be equivalent to having an honorable title and position in the Heavenly Court, and they would be officially included in the Heavenly Court sequence. Their status would be much higher than that of the immortal officials in the Qingxiao Treasure Realm.

You must know that although the Demon Court of Uttarakuru converted to the Heavenly Court, only the top few people in the Demon Court received the imperial decree from the Heavenly Court and entered the sequence of the Heavenly Court.

Although the rest of the demon cultivators in the Demon Court all hold the position of immortal officials, they do not belong to the sequence of the Heavenly Court. Instead, they are immortal officials under the jurisdiction of the Qingxiao Treasure Realm. Simply put, they are officials under the command of the princes, rather than officials directly under the jurisdiction of the court.

Of course, this does not mean that Fang Jian is poaching people from the Qingxiao Treasure Realm. Even if Taixuandu Province bestows the title of Great Sage on them and they enter the direct jurisdiction of the Heavenly Court, they still have to serve under Emperor Jun of the Qingxiao Treasure Realm.

Although the Eight Great Sages came to assist on orders, after receiving Fang Jian's promise, in addition to a sense of mission, they also felt a strong passion and excitement in their hearts.

How many demon clan great saints have been appointed by the Heavenly Court? The answer is only one, and that is the Great Sage Equaling Heaven. If they could receive the same treatment as the Great Sage Equaling Heaven, their lives would be truly worthwhile.

Therefore, the Eight Great Saints immediately stood up and bowed to Fang Jian, saying, "Thank you very much, Master Hongqing."

Just then, a divine general hurried into the reed hut and said, "Your Excellency, a group of demon cultivators have emerged from Banjie Mountain, carrying five-colored flags and heading towards Fanqing Peak."

Upon hearing this, Fang Jian immediately asked, "How many people are there?"

The general said, "It's quite a large force, about fifty to sixty thousand people."

Fang Jian asked again, "What level of cultivation does the leader have?"

The general said, "Please forgive me, my Lord Shangshu, I couldn't see it."

General Fatan on the side said: "I can't tell, he must be above the Xuanxian realm."
