Chapter 522 Intervention
Seeing the majestic Lingxiao Palace, Jifa couldn't help but feel awe in his heart.
But then he felt ashamed and angry.
He secretly thought that he was the Holy Son of Heaven and the future Emperor of Mankind, so how could he feel afraid here?
He took a deep breath and suppressed the fear in his heart.
With a gentle smile, he said, "As expected of the Supreme Emperor who presides over the center of the Three Realms. It is truly magnificent! It is truly impressive."
Princess Longji chuckled and said, "My Lord, it's just a first glance. In fact, if you look at it more often, you won't notice it anymore."
As the two were talking, a beam of white light flew out from the Lingxiao Palace and landed directly in front of them.
When the white light dissipated, an old Taoist with white hair and beard and a gaunt face appeared.
This old Taoist is none other than Taibai Jinxing, the first civil servant under the Jade Emperor.
Taibai Jinxing smiled when he saw the two of them and said, "Princess, Holy Son, His Majesty is calling you in."
"Meet the Star Lord."
Long Ji bowed gently to Taibai Jinxing, then said with a smile, "My Lord, this is the Jinxing Priest, a civil servant who delivers imperial edicts and issues orders to His Majesty. He holds a very high position."
Upon hearing this, Ji Fa also bowed to Taibai Jinxing and said, "Ji Fa, the prince of the lower realm, greets the Star Lord."
"Oh, there's no need for you to be so polite, Saint Son. But I'm wasting my merits."
Taibai Jinxing quickly raised his hand to help Jifa up, and said with a smile: "Go in quickly, don't make His Majesty wait impatiently."
The two nodded at the same time, then boarded the Qingfeng and entered the Lingxiao Palace.
The Lingxiao Palace was rebuilt from the former Donghuang Palace. It is very magnificent, grand and majestic.
The Heavenly Emperor Palace was shattered to pieces during the Lich Catastrophe.
There were two groups of civil and military officials standing inside, looking quite imposing.
But they are all unknown, they are just some casual cultivators in the human world who have entered the heaven.
Seek a stable and excellent place for practice, as well as some rewards of practice resources.
Only Taibai Jinxing, Juling Shen, the Four Seasons Gods, Fengbo and Yushi, Tianyou, Yishen, and Yousheng Three Gods and several minor fairies are somewhat famous in later generations.
It’s no wonder that the Jade Emperor tried every possible means to gather talents from all over the world to gather in the Heavenly Palace.
Really, how could the current Heaven be worthy of his title as the most supreme being in the Three Realms?
It's a bit too shabby.
But after all, the two groups of civil and military officials, plus thousands of heavenly soldiers and generals, with their expressionless faces, managed to create a huge momentum.
Especially the imperial throne in front.
But the Jade Emperor was six feet and six feet tall, wearing a golden crown, a twelve-tassel pearl crown on his head, and carrying a huge wheel of merit behind him.
As three long strands of beard fluttered slowly, the sound of the avenue filled the air.
Waves of powerful aura and pressure continuously emanated from him.
Long Ji and Ji Fa came riding on the wind. When they reached the white jade steps in front of them, they quickly landed and walked inside.
Even though she often saw the Jade Emperor, Princess Longji was still afraid of her father.
In addition, she was a criminal to begin with, so the further she walked, the more cramped and nervous she became.
As for Jifa, although his expression remained unchanged, his heart was gradually becoming tense!
As the two men moved forward, the heavenly soldiers and generals on both sides became solemn, and a murderous aura gradually filled the air.
The giant spirit had a fierce look in his eyes, as if he would pounce on them at any time and chop them into meat paste with his axe.
When the two of them reached the golden steps, Princess Longji was the first to bow to the Jade Emperor, saying respectfully, "Your Majesty, your servant Longji, pays homage to His Majesty the Great Supreme."
Since they are in the Lingxiao Palace, there is no father-daughter relationship, only hierarchy.
When Ji Fa saw this, he was stunned.
He had originally intended to bow and pay his respects, as a sign of respect from a feudal lord to the Emperor, but now he had to kneel down and pay his respects...
How can that be?
Even when facing the Human Emperor, I never kneeled down.
But now the momentum was strong enough all around, and Longji was the first to kneel down.
Jifa only felt that countless eyes were staring at him.
All kinds of murderous intent, anger, and scolding came overwhelmingly!
All these ideas came together into one sentence.
Kneel down!
To kneel or not to kneel?
Jifa was struggling in his heart so much that his whole body began to tremble slightly.
At this moment, the Jade Emperor lowered his eyebrows slightly, looked at Ji Fa below, and did not speak.
But just this one look made Ji Fa feel cold all over!
A great fear immediately crushed the persistence in his heart!
At that moment, Ji Fa's knees weakened and he knelt on the ground, bowing his head and saying: "Under the princes of the lower realm, Ji Fa, I pay my respects to His Majesty, the First Supreme Lord of the Three Realms!"
After saying this, he murmured to himself as if to comfort himself: "I am just a prince of the lower realm. It is not a disgrace to pay homage to the Supreme Being of the Three Realms, the Jade Emperor. Yes, it is not a disgrace, it is not a disgrace..."
The Jade Emperor then narrowed his gaze slightly, and said with a faint smile, "Stand up."
"Thank you, Your Majesty!"
Long Ji stood up in response.
Ji Fa paused for a moment and then said calmly, "Thank you, Your Majesty."
Then he stood up and stood with his hands behind his back.
The Jade Emperor looked at Ji Fa and simply smiled faintly, saying, "Ji Fa, you must be wondering why I sent Long Ji to summon you to Heaven?"
Ji Fa said: "Your Majesty has summoned me, and I will obey without hesitation. As for the matter, Your Majesty will naturally tell me."
"As expected of the Son of Heaven, such magnanimity is truly remarkable."
Upon seeing this, the Jade Emperor nodded and said something approvingly.
Then he sighed and said, "Thinking of the Human Emperor of the Lower Realm, who committed evil and cruelty, and brought disaster to all living beings, I, in Heaven, have witnessed this and am deeply saddened. I am worried about the millions of lives that have passed.
When Jifa heard this, his eyes suddenly lit up.
He nodded quickly and said, "Your Majesty is absolutely right! That Emperor Xin is cruel, vicious, lustful, and greedy. Since he ascended the throne, the world has been in turmoil, and the people of the world have suffered. My father, the Duke of Xibo, saw the suffering of the people and could not bear it. That's why he made up his mind to lead an army to attack Shang, hoping to force that tyrant to change his ways."
The Jade Emperor said slowly, "Marquis Xibo's trip is in accordance with the will of Heaven."
Ji Fa sighed again, "But that foolish monarch has gathered a large number of evil spirits under his command. With their support, the army attacking Shang has made no progress in over a month. It's truly despicable."
After saying that, Jifa looked at the Jade Emperor and knelt down.
Since I've already knelt, it doesn't matter.
He raised his hand and said to the Jade Emperor, "Your Majesty! You are the Supreme Lord of the Three Realms and Six Paths. All the creatures in this vast world are under your jurisdiction. All of us in this world are your subjects! The Human Emperor is unjust and causing chaos in the world. Are you just going to watch? You should speak up! As the Emperor of Heaven, reprimand the Human Emperor!"
Upon hearing this, the Jade Emperor immediately shook his head and said, "Although I am the Supreme Emperor of Heaven, there is a distinction between the Three Emperors of Heaven, Earth, and Man. I cannot arbitrarily interfere in the affairs of the human world."
A hint of disappointment suddenly appeared in Jifa's eyes.
However, the Jade Emperor then added, "If you are willing to take me as your father, I will also marry my sixth daughter, Longji, to you. Then I will have a reason to take action."
After saying this, the Jade Emperor looked at Ji Fa and smiled faintly, "What do you think, Holy Son?"
