Chapter 124: Tong Tian
Golden Turtle Island.
Immortal energy swirled, auspicious colors were everywhere, spiritual peaks were steep and beautiful, and waterfalls and springs flowed.
At this time, on the Jie Sect's preaching square, ten thousand immortals gathered.
They were all speculating why the Sect Master Tong Tian had suddenly summoned them.
After a while, Tong Tian's figure appeared out of thin air on the high platform for preaching.
His posture was majestic, his spirit was high, the Dao rhyme flowed, and a green Dao robe fluttered in the wind.
The moment Sect Master Tong Tian appeared, the ten thousand immortals looked at the high platform and bowed in unison.
"Disciples pay respects to the Sect Master."
Sect Master Tong Tian scanned the ten thousand immortals below and spoke slowly.
"Today, I have summoned you all for the future of the Jie Sect."
These words set off stormy waves in the hearts of the ten thousand immortals, and they could not help but straighten their backs and hold their breath.
Sect Master Tong Tian paused and continued: "Currently, the heavens and the earth are facing a great calamity. The Dao Ancestor needs disciples from the Ren, Chan, and Jie Sects to enter the calamity and be listed on the Investiture of the Gods."
"This matter was originally caused by the Twelve Golden Immortals of Jade Void committing the killing calamity. In order not to destroy the relationship of the Three Pure Ones, after I returned from the Zixiao Palace, I let you close the mountain gates, quietly recite the Huangting Sutra, and not participate in the Great Calamity, so as to avoid disputes with the Chan Sect."
"But now the Chan Sect wants to scheme against my Jie Sect disciples, wanting my Jie Sect disciples to fill the list to eliminate the Great Calamity. I cannot sit idly by."
The news that the Chan Sect wanted to kill Shi Ji's attendants and, failing to scheme against Shi Ji, went to kill Ma Yuan, had already spread on Golden Turtle Island.
All the disciples knew, and every Jie Sect disciple felt indignant in their hearts.
But Tong Tian had not expressed his position, so many disciples could not say much.
Now that Tong Tian had personally mentioned this matter, the ten thousand immortals of the Jie Sect ignited their fighting spirit, all hoping to face the Chan Sect head-on, rather than being powerful but shrinking on Golden Turtle Island, letting the Chan Sect scheme against them.
After a pause, Tong Tian looked at the disciples below.
"I will let Duobao be responsible for the Investiture of the Gods to deal with the Chan Sect's schemes. If Jie Sect disciples outside discover that the Chan Sect has any improper actions, they can report to the Biyou Palace at any time."
Upon hearing this, the ten thousand immortals said in unison: "Disciples obey the decree."
Duobao Daoren, Jin Ling, Gui Ling, Wu Dang, and the three Xiao sisters below were all overjoyed to hear Tong Tian's decision.
Although Tong Tian did not explicitly say that he wanted to have a big fight with the Chan Sect.
At least they were not shrinking on Golden Turtle Island, doing nothing, and always being in a passive state.
Duobao Daoren stood out and bowed with cupped hands.
"Teacher, rest assured, I will send people to watch the Chan Sect and pay attention to their every move. If the Chan Sect wants to plot against my Jie Sect, I will definitely report to Teacher at the first opportunity."
Tong Tian nodded slightly: "Duobao, I will trouble you with the Investiture of the Gods."
After speaking, Tong Tian's figure disappeared from the high platform and returned to the Biyou Palace.
Mother Jin Ling spoke: "Senior Brother Duobao, Teacher asked you to be responsible for this matter. What do you plan to do?"
Gui Ling and Wu Dang were both waiting for Duobao's reply.
After thinking for a while, Duobao Daoren smiled.
"After Teacher signed the Investiture of the Gods in the Zixiao Palace, he let us close the mountain gates, so we don't know anything about the Chan Sect's previous plans."
"We only know that the Chan Sect wants to scheme against Jie Sect disciples and have them fill the list for them because Junior Nephew Gu Xiu told us. So we still have to ask Junior Nephew first and listen to his opinions."
Mother Jin Ling thought for a while and nodded.
"That's a good idea."
Then, she looked at Yun Xiao on the side.
"Sister Yun Xiao, you don't mind if we borrow your disciple, do you?"
"Sister Jin Ling is joking. Although I don't know why Gu Xiu has been paying attention to the Investiture of the Gods from the beginning, he will definitely be very happy to share his thoughts."
Duobao Daoren smiled: "In that case, let's go find Junior Nephew Gu Xiu together and see what he thinks."
Following that, several people left Golden Turtle Island and went to the Three Immortals Island together.
At this time.
On the Three Immortals Island, Princess Longji had not left for long.
Gu Xiu noticed that several powerful auras were coming towards the Three Immortals Island.
Three of the auras were those of the three Xiao sisters.
"It seems that Teacher and the others are back, but the four auras following them seem to be Duobao and the three great Mothers."
Gu Xiu was puzzled: "Why are Duobao Daoren and the three great Mothers not staying on Golden Turtle Island and coming to the Three Immortals Island? They wouldn't be coming to find me, would they?"
After a while, the three Xiao sisters, Duobao, and the three great Mothers including Jin Ling.
Descended outside the residence.
Gu Xiu's words were a bit of a self-fulfilling prophecy.
Seeing several people enter the courtyard, he stood up to welcome them,
"Disciples pay respects to Teacher and all Senior Uncles and Aunts."
Duobao Daoren smiled: "Junior Nephew Gu Xiu, we have disturbed you, I hope you don't mind."
"Senior Uncle Duobao is joking. I wonder what I can help with?"
Yun Xiao stepped forward and told Gu Xiu about the matter on Golden Turtle Island.
Upon hearing this, Gu Xiu's heart rippled.
Tong Tian actually let Duobao Daoren be responsible for the Investiture of the Gods?
At first, he thought he had heard wrong.
It seems that what he did before really changed some things.
Duobao Daoren said slowly: "That's how it is. The Sect Master suddenly asked me to be responsible for the Investiture of the Gods. We came here this time to listen to your insights on the Investiture of the Gods."
Gu Xiu pondered for a moment and sorted out his thoughts.
"Senior Uncle, I have no insights, I only know that the Chan Sect is despicable and shameless. We don't need to talk about the relationship of the Three Pure Ones with them. If they want to scheme against the Jie Sect, we will just counterattack at the first opportunity." ===== CHAPTER 125 =====
