There will always be conflicts in this world. Even among gods, as long as there are selfish desires, there will always be conflicts.
So, do gods also have selfish desires?
The answer is yes, but one thing is undeniable: the higher the level of cultivation of the immortal, the less selfish desires he has.
But less does not mean nothing, so whether it is Taoism's "pure cultivation" or Buddhism's "hard cultivation", they are all intended to warn disciples not to get involved in worldly affairs, to transcend the mundane world and eliminate desires.
However, for the immortal officials in heaven, this is destined to be difficult to achieve.
Because immortal officials are also officials, they have to deal with many affairs every day, meet many people, and are respected, flattered, worshipped, and offered sacrifices by many people.
Therefore, the gods in heaven are destined to forever struggle with their own emotions and desires, and to fight against the evil thoughts in their hearts.
Is it easy for the Heavenly Court to train a first-rank immortal official or a god who can guard a world?
"Xiyuan's fall is a very profound lesson. When power is too great and unlimited, it is easy to fall into the evil thoughts of self-esteem." Fang Jian remembered his previous obsession that turned him into a demon.
Fang Jian sighed and said, "From now on, I will uphold the laws of nature and be impartial and just. I will not abuse the law or punish people based on my own likes and dislikes."
After saying that, Fang Jian turned around and called out, "The sixth and seventh day of the first lunar month."
Two Yellow Turban warriors stepped forward and bowed to Fang Jian, saying, "Here we are."
Fang Jian said, "You two will stay here and guard the abode. No one is allowed to approach without permission. If anyone disobeys our advice and insists on approaching the abode, we will kill them immediately after warnings are ineffective."
On the sixth and seventh days, people sang in unison, "We will obey the order of the law."
Afterwards, Fang Jian took the other five Yellow Turban warriors, as well as Wang Ji and Xuan Ying, and rode on the clouds and flew all the way to the Baishi Divine Palace above the clouds.
Xiyuan has been captured, and the next ones to come are those in Baishi Divine Mansion.
Of course, struggles for selfish desires are common in the Bai Shi Divine Mansion. For example, the several wives of Bai Shi Divine Lord Xi Yuan are engaged in endless palace fighting.
Whenever Fang Jian thought of this, he wanted to laugh. Some people were always so short-sighted. They became immortals and even married a god in heaven, but their eyes were always fixed on the small piece of land in the god's palace.
But Fang Jian couldn't laugh, because Xi Yuan was a god in heaven, and he used to be.
...
Just as Fang Jian and his group rushed to the Bai Shi Divine Mansion, a big family discussion was also taking place inside the Bai Shi Divine Mansion.
The person who presided over this family meeting was Xiyuan's wife, Mo Jin Longnv, the daughter of Bai Shijie Youhai Dragon King.
And Xi Yuan's three co-wives: Yun Hong, the head of the Yuantan Sect, the largest sect in Baishi Realm; Ling Nu, the sister of the Yishan Mountain Goddess in Baishi Realm; and Xiao Ji, the only Taiyi Xuanxian female cultivator in Baishi Realm.
Those who came to participate in this family discussion included Xiyuan and Mojin Longnu's eldest son Wugu, Xiyuan and Yunhong's eldest daughter Bingxin, Xiyuan and Xiaoji's third son Yanhui, Xiyuan and Lingnu's fourth son Lutong... and Xiyuan and other sons.
There were some children born to concubines, but they had no seats in the hall and could only stand.
Mo Jin Long Nu was wearing a Qingxia Caifeng gown, looking delicate and charming, with unparalleled grace. She drank a sip of spiritual tea, then glanced at everyone in the hall and said, "Everyone has heard what Huang Yong, the left judge, said just now.
The newly appointed Three Realms Inspector, Master Hongqing, has arrived at the White Stone Realm, and the Divine Lord has already rushed to Muyun Mountain."
After she finished speaking, seeing that no one in the room reacted, Mo Jinlongnu gently placed the teacup on the table and said in a clear voice, "Everyone should understand that our Baishi Divine Mansion is ultimately one and the same. No matter what, we are all one family.
Even if we had some conflicts with each other before, they were our own business.”
At this point, Mo Jinlongnu said, "So, during the time when the Three Realms Inspector is here in the White Stone Realm, I hope that all of you sisters will prioritize the overall interests of our family, manage your own people well, and prevent them from causing trouble, and avoid causing trouble for the Divine Lord and the Divine Palace."
Hearing what Mo Jin Long Nu said, Yun Hong, who was wrapped in a Taoist robe and had a graceful figure, said: "Sister is right. My Yuan Tan Sect will naturally obey my orders and will never cause trouble. Bing Xin is the most considerate of my parents and will not cause trouble.
It's Wu Gu'er. I heard he recently captured a few female cultivators from the cultivation world and brought them to his residence for their enjoyment. I want to know if this will cause trouble for our Divine Mansion.
Hearing Yun Hong's words, Mo Jinlongnu's expression slightly condensed, and then she looked at her son Wu Gu.
Wu Gu, dressed in a jade robe and looking elegant, was caught by his mother's gaze and immediately stood up and said to Yun Hong, "Aunt, what are you talking about? When has my nephew ever captured a female cultivator in the cultivation world? This must be a rumor spread by those with ulterior motives!"
"Is it really a rumor?" Yun Hong asked back.
Wu Gu asked, "Auntie, where did you get this news? Could you please tell my nephew?"
"Haha." Yun Hong smiled faintly and did not answer Wu Gu's question. Tell you? Then you can kill people to silence them?
Mo Jinlongnu frowned and immediately slammed her hand on the table, showing the power of a wife. She first scolded Wu Gu, "Sit down! How can you talk to your aunt like that?"
Upon hearing this, Wu Gu bowed respectfully and said, "Yes, mother." Then he sat down.
Then Mo Jin Long Nu smiled at Yun Hong and said, "Sister, I'm afraid this is just a rumor. I've been keeping a close eye on Gu'er lately, so arresting the female cultivator might be a matter for further discussion."
Yun Hong sneered in her heart, looking at Mo Jinlongnu, she thought to herself, "As the legal wife, you are so protective of your own son, and yet you still want others to control your own people. This is really a huge joke."
