From the South Heaven Gate to the front of the Taixuan Palace, the boy Qingyan led the nine demon lords through the Taixuan Bureau, the Thunder Department, the Tianshu Bureau, the Tianshu Province, and finally entered the Taixuan Province.
When the nine demon lords stood in front of the Taixuan Palace, they already had a clear understanding of the structure of the Heavenly Palace.
The Heavenly Court is definitely not a makeshift group like the Palace of the God King Tang Yi, the Tianshi Mansion in Donglu, and the Paradise of Ancestor Boxun as they imagined.
The Heavenly Court is an extremely complete system of priesthood established in accordance with the Way of Heaven. It is the ruler of the three realms who holds all power in the world under the Way of Heaven, and it is also the embodiment of the will of Heaven.
At this moment, the nine demon lords finally understood what kind of system they would work in in the future.
The four words "Lord of the Three Realms" seemed to carry infinite responsibility and heavy power, which suddenly pressed down on the shoulders of the nine demon lords.
The nine demon lords unconsciously straightened their bodies, not daring to show any disrespect before the majestic aura of the Taixuan Palace. They imitated the immortal officials they had met along the way, adjusting their posture and mimicking the majestic demeanor of an immortal official.
"My fellow Taoists, please wait here for a moment. I will go into the hall first to report to the chief envoy." The boy Qingyan turned and said to the nine demon lords.
The nine demon lords nodded and said, "Please come in, fairy boy."
As the boy Qingyan entered the Taixuan Palace, the nine demon lords stood respectfully outside the Taixuan Palace.
At this time, two figures walked out from the Taixuan Left Palace not far away, one male and one female. The male was a Golden Immortal, wearing a blue-gray Taoist robe, middle-aged, with a tall and straight figure.
The woman was wearing a flowing cloud fairy dress and a three-cloud hairpin flower crown on her head. She had an extraordinary and beautiful face, but she only had the ability of a mysterious immortal.
However, from the expressions on their faces, it can be seen that they are in a very good mood at the moment, and their joy is beyond words.
After the two men walked out of the Taixuan Left Hall, they quickly walked towards the outside of the Taixuan Hall. When they passed by the Nine Demon Lords, the Golden Immortal Taoist paused and bowed to the Nine Demon Lords.
Seeing this, the nine demon lords also hurriedly returned the greeting. Then, the Golden Immortal Taoist said, "I see that your auras don't resemble those of the cultivators of the Great World of Yamabu, do they?"
Upon hearing this, Xu Ying immediately bowed and said, "Fellow Daoist, you have a keen eye. We have come from the lower realms and are respectfully awaiting an audience with the Grand Master."
The Golden Immortal Taoist looked slightly surprised, "A fellow Taoist from the lower realm, how disrespectful!"
The nine demon lords returned the greeting, and then Fierce Whale bowed and asked, "May I know your Dharma name?"
The Golden Immortal Taoist bowed and said, "Thank you for asking. My name is Ding Yuan, and this is my wife, Qu Xia."
Madam Quxia immediately bowed to the nine demon lords, then smiled and said, "We are fortunate to meet today, but my wife and I have important matters to attend to and cannot accompany you for long. If you, my fellow Taoists, ever visit Dongsheng Shenzhou in the future, please be sure to come to Liuhua Cave in Baiyuan Mountain. My wife and I will do our best to show our hospitality."
Upon hearing this, the nine demon lords immediately bowed and said, "Thank you for your invitation. I dare not refuse."
Afterwards, Taoist Dingyuan bid farewell to Madam Quxia and left Taixuan Palace, heading straight for the Thunder Department.
The couple came to Taixuan Palace to receive the imperial edict, because Chonghua's hundred-year imprisonment period had expired, and the couple came to take their son out of Lei Ze Prison.
After Taoist Dingyuan and his wife left, the nine demon lords waited for a while, and the boy Qingyan finally walked out of the Taixuan Palace.
"The great master has issued an order, ordering the nine demon lords of Canglan Sea to come to the palace for an audience." The Qingyan boy loudly announced to the nine demon lords.
The nine demon lords immediately became nervous upon hearing this. They quickly straightened their appearance and looked at each other again and again. After making sure that there was nothing wrong, they turned around to accept the order and followed Qingyan boy into Taixuan Palace.
As soon as they entered the Taixuan Palace, the nine people immediately felt a majestic gaze falling on them.
The nine dared not move, not even to look up at the owner of that gaze. Instead, after Qingyan Tongzi's report, they immediately bowed and said, "Canglan Sea Monster Immortal Xuying (Chen Jing, Gu Fan, Cui Che, Du Lie, Cui Hai, Lang Ji, Chong Ming, Qiu Yun), greets the Grand Master and respectfully wishes him a long and prosperous life."
"Stand up." A clear and mysterious voice fell, carrying an irresistible force directly into the minds of the nine demon lords.
The nine demon lords were filled with awe and immediately bowed, "Thank you, Great Lord."
Then the nine demon lords stood up straight, and they were finally able to see the legendary 'Great Envoy'.
She sat high atop a cloud of auspicious clouds, a mysterious aura illuminating the heavens. She wore a hibiscus crown and a golden-threaded crimson silk gown. A long, flowing blue jade sash draped her skirts, and a white jade scepter adorned her sleeves. She held a divine azure jade ruyi, her eyes gleaming with starlight as it shone through the heavens. Her divine form was forged by nature, her face eternally radiant. To her left and right were two young girls in green, one holding a hut and a scepter, the other a banner and a fan. She rode a phoenix on a cloud of auspicious beauty, adorned with a nine-colored emerald robe.
The nine demon lords only took one look and immediately lowered their heads in shock. Such a fairy-like appearance made them feel that it would be a blasphemy to look at her any longer.
"Although you are demon immortals from the lower realms, you are able to understand the general situation, understand the will of heaven, have good intentions, and follow the righteous path. You have helped Master Hongqing to destroy the foreign demons and save all living beings. Your achievements are obvious. I, following the orders of the Great Celestial Venerable, hold the authority of the Heavenly Court. I will reward those who have made contributions and punish those who have made mistakes. You have made such contributions and deserve to be rewarded."
After the Lady of the Nine Heavens finished speaking, she asked, "Would you like to be a carefree immortal, or would you like to be conferred the title of an immortal official?"
As soon as the Lady of the Nine Heavens finished speaking, the nine demon lords immediately prostrated themselves on the ground and said respectfully, "Your Excellency, we are deeply influenced by the teachings of the True Man Hongqing and have long since converted to the Jade Emperor. We are willing to serve as immortal officials. From now on, we will work diligently to enlighten all spirits, fearless of disasters, and bring peace to all living beings. We will diligently cultivate merit and practice supernatural powers, not betraying the majesty of the Heavenly Court, and spreading the compassion of the Heavenly Dao."
