Chapter 282: Haotian's response, the Three Pure Ones are not in harmony
Gu Xiu was waiting leisurely on Three Immortals Island for Princess Long Ji's news.
At this time, he was lying on a smooth blue stone, surrounded by flowers and butterflies dancing.
He closed his eyes slightly, his expression relaxed.
Suddenly, his heart moved, and he slowly opened his eyes, looking towards the distant sky.
I saw on the horizon, a handsome Green Luan flapping its wide wings, carrying the outstanding Princess Long Ji, flying rapidly towards Three Immortals Island.
The feathers on the Green Luan flashed with five-colored light under the sunlight, and Princess Long Ji's clothes fluttered, her long hair moving with the wind, and her temperament was extraordinary.
Gu Xiu's mouth raised slightly: "It seems the talk with Haotian went well? I hope it's good news."
As he said this, he got up and returned to his residence to wait.
When the Green Luan landed steadily outside the courtyard, Princess Long Ji jumped down lightly, her steps light and elegant, and then walked into the courtyard.
Gu Xiu had long been waiting at the stone table, and two cups of steaming fragrant tea were placed on the stone table, the tea fragrance curling up and permeating the air.
Seeing Gu Xiu looking at her with a smile, Princess Long Ji nodded slightly, walked quickly to the stone table and sat down.
"Was Princess Long Ji's trip to the Heavenly Court smooth? I wonder what the Heavenly Emperor meant?" Gu Xiu poured her a cup of tea.
Princess Long Ji took a sip of tea: "My father agreed to your suggestion, but the disciples sent to the Heavenly Court cannot have too low cultivation."
Gu Xiu smiled: "This is natural. You go back and tell the Heavenly Emperor that in a few days, my Jie Sect disciples will go to the heavens to hold positions. As for other problems, we will discuss them when our disciples go to hold positions."
Princess Long Ji looked at Gu Xiu with her beautiful eyes, really wanting to know why Gu Xiu would take the initiative to suggest letting Jie Sect disciples go to the heavens to hold positions.
If the Chan Sect was also so easy to talk to, maybe there wouldn't be the Investiture of the Gods.
"Good, then I will go back to report."
After saying this, Princess Long Ji got up.
Suddenly, a terrifying Saintly power swept over from the direction of Biyou Palace.
At the same time, a majestic voice came from the sky.
"Tong Tian, I don't want to talk nonsense anymore. Hand over the Nine-Dragon Fire Cover."
"The Demon-Subduing Pestle is also in your hands, right? Hand it over together."
Princess Long Ji, who was about to leave, was slightly stunned.
She steadied herself and looked at Gu Xiu.
"Could this be the Jade Pure Saint?"
Gu Xiu was calm and smiled: "It looks like it. My Master took Perfected Taiyi's Nine-Dragon Fire Cover, and the Jade Pure Saint is asking my Sect Leader for it."
Princess Long Ji didn't know what to say for a moment.
Thinking that she came to Three Immortals Island and actually encountered something between Saints.
At this time.
Outside Jinao Island.
Yuanshi Tianzun stood in the void, with laws flowing around his body.
His face was gloomy, and cold light flashed in his eyes.
"Tong Tian, I don't want to say it a second time. Hand over the Nine-Dragon Fire Cover and the Demon-Subduing Pestle."
His voice was cold and majestic, like ten thousand tons of thunder exploding in the sky, shaking the entire void slightly.
Tong Tian in Biyou Palace originally didn't want to pay attention to Yuanshi Tianzun.
Feeling Yuanshi Tianzun's anger, his figure flashed and he came outside Jinao Island.
Sect Leader Tong Tian was dressed in a green Daoist robe, his figure was straight, and his expression was calm.
"Second Brother, the Nine-Dragon Fire Cover is indeed in my hands, but I have already said that after the Investiture of the Gods ends, I will naturally send it to the Jade Void Palace. As for the Demon-Subduing Pestle, it is not in my Jie Sect's hands; how can I hand it to you?"
Yuanshi Tianzun heard these words from Sect Leader Tong Tian, his face became more gloomy, and he snorted coldly: "Tong Tian, this excuse of yours is too far-fetched. When the Investiture of the Gods ends is not yet known. You are delaying like this; could it be that you want to keep it for yourself?"
Sect Leader Tong Tian frowned: "Second Brother, what do you mean by this? The magic treasures you gave to your disciples are like scrap metal to me. How could I covet these magic treasures? Currently, for the Investiture of the Gods Great Calamity, the Teacher requires the disciples of the three sects to enter the calamity. We are opponents. The current situation is complex. Returning the magic treasures at this moment may cause variables, so after the Investiture of the Gods ends, I will naturally send it to the Jade Void Palace."
The Nine-Dragon Fire Cover and the Demon-Subduing Pestle were the treasures of Perfected Taiyi and Perfected Dao-Conduct. Without these two magic treasures, their combat power would decrease.
By then, there might be many changes in the matter of scheming against the Jie Sect.
Yuanshi Tianzun said sternly: "Stop talking! If you don't hand it over today, don't blame me for not considering the brotherhood."
Sect Leader Tong Tian laughed out of extreme anger: "Since Second Brother is so unreasonable, then let's see the real chapter in our hands and see if you can take it by force from me!"
After saying this, Sect Leader Tong Tian's Saintly power surged, his green robe rustled, and the vast Saintly power swept across the heavens and earth, spreading throughout the Primordial.
"Hmph! Tong Tian, do you really think I'm afraid of you?" Yuanshi Tianzun also did not show weakness, and an incomparably terrifying Saintly power erupted from his body.
Immediately, two vast Saintly powers collided, and a powerful force erupted between heaven and earth.
Mount Shouyang.
Eight Views Palace.
Supreme Master Laozi woke up from meditation, a look of solemnity flashing in his eyes.
He looked up towards the direction of Jinao Island.
"Second Brother, why did you run to Jinao Island?"
"And you are taking action against Third Brother. The Immortal-Slaying Sword Formation cannot be broken without four Saints. If you take action, Second Brother will be the one to suffer."
"Currently, the Investiture of the Gods is imminent. If Second Brother loses face in Third Brother's hands again, it will have a significant impact on the morale of the Chan Sect. I must go and stop it."
Thinking this, Laozi got up, took a step, and his figure instantly disappeared from the Eight Views Palace.
When he appeared again, he had already arrived above Jinao Island.
"Second Brother, Third Brother, don't fight anymore. Why are you so impulsive to reach this point?"
Seeing Supreme Master Laozi appear, Yuanshi Tianzun and Sect Leader Tong Tian both stopped.
Yuanshi Tianzun snorted coldly: "Big Brother, you came just in time. I came here to ask for the Nine-Dragon Fire Cover and the Demon-Subduing Pestle."
Hearing this, Supreme Master Laozi looked at Tong Tian: "Third Brother, the Nine-Dragon Fire Cover and the Demon-Subduing Pestle are Second Brother's things. We Three Pure Ones should support each other. We must not have gaps because of these treasures and let others make a joke of us. If it is in your hands, give it back. Don't hurt the harmony."
Tong Tian frowned slightly. In the past, whenever he argued with Yuanshi Tianzun, Supreme Master Laozi would always come out to pull the partial frame in time.
It was the same now.
"Big Brother, the Nine-Dragon Fire Cover is indeed with me. As for the Demon-Subduing Pestle, it is not in my Jie Sect's hands, and I am not refusing to return it. After the Investiture of the Gods ends, I will naturally send it to the Jade Void Palace."
Mount Sumeru.
Jieyin and Zhunti felt the movement from the Primordial heaven and earth and cast their gaze towards the Primordial.
"Junior Brother, it seems that the Three Pure Ones have conflicts again." Jieyin narrowed his eyes and spoke.
Zhunti nodded: "Senior Brother, it seems that the disharmony of the Three Pure Ones is becoming more and more serious. Our hope of getting involved in the East is becoming more and more promising."
Jieyin put his hands together and smiled slightly: "Good! My West is barren. If we can get a share of the rich East, we will definitely be able to carry forward our Western Sect."
Zhunti nodded and cupped his hands: "Senior Brother's words are very true. However, the current situation is indeed a rare opportunity for us. As long as we grasp it properly, we will definitely be able to gain something and strengthen our West."
"Good!"
Chaos Domain.
Wa Palace.
Nuwa leaned on the throne, her figure elegant and lazy.
Her eyes were closed, and her long eyelashes cast faint shadows on her jade-like skin.
Feeling the movement from the Primordial, her beautiful eyes half-opened.
"Are these two Saintly powers Yuanshi's and Tong Tian's?"
Her voice was clear and ethereal, echoing in the empty palace.
She looked at the situation on the Primordial and felt emotional.
"The Three Pure Ones are eventually drifting away, like strangers."
At this time, Jin Ning walked in: "Nuwa Niangniang,"
"Jin Ning, you are back. What is going on with the Heavenly Court?" Nuwa leaned on the throne, her beautiful face showing confusion.
Perfected Taiyi caused trouble in the Heavenly Palace, eventually leading to Yuanshi Tianzun's consciousness descending. Nuwa also knew about this and specifically sent Jin Ning to inquire about the situation.
Jin Ning respectfully saluted.
"Reporting to Niangniang, the Heavenly Court went to Three Immortals Island to find the three Xiao sisters of the Jie Sect and Gu Xiu to capture Perfected Taiyi. Haotian originally wanted to use this to ask the Chan Sect for compensation, but the Chan Sect didn't intend to compensate at all."
"Even the Jade Pure Saint's consciousness descended, forcing Haotian to release the person, and the Spirit Pearl has died, and his physical body has been destroyed."
Nuwa said lightly: "The Spirit Pearl's heart is not on our side, so let it be. However, the disciples of the Chan Sect have all inherited Yuanshi Tianzun's temperament, all arrogant. This time, making Haotian lose all face will definitely lead to him going to Zixiao Palace to complain."
As she said this, Nuwa sat up straight slightly, her jade-like fingers resting lightly on the armrest of the throne, her beautiful eyes deep.
"It is the three Xiao sisters of the Jie Sect who suddenly participated in this matter; it should be related to the Gu kid."
"Niangniang, do you think so highly of Gu Xiu?" Jin Ning asked with a trace of doubt on her face, unable to help but speak.
"This child is extraordinary. Being able to maneuver in the game of Saints, I look forward to him giving me more surprises. It is his appearance that makes me want to plan some things." Nuwa's beautiful eyes flashed with strange brilliance, looking into the distance.
Jin Ning's gaze also looked towards the Primordial.
"Niangniang, the Jade Pure Saint and the Upper Pure Saint seem to have conflicts; is it okay?"
Regarding this matter, Nuwa had little interest and said casually: "The Three Pure Ones were destined to drift away since they separated. I am alone and weak, so I'd better not participate in these things and do our own things well, which is the right thing to do."
"Yes, Niangniang." Jin Ning bowed her head and responded.
Nuwa glanced at the Primordial heaven and earth, her eyes flowing.
"I just want to see how the Gu kid will do in the Investiture of the Gods battle; this is something to look forward to."
Zixiao Palace.
During the Investiture of the Gods period, Hongjun was at the critical moment of merging with the Dao.
The Chan Sect caused trouble in the Heavenly Palace, and Haotian came to cry and complain, which already made Hongjun a bit unhappy.
Who knew that Yuanshi Tianzun and Sect Leader Tong Tian were about to fight again. Feeling the Saintly power from the Primordial, Hongjun frowned slightly.
"Yuanshi, Tong Tian, are they going to fight so soon?"
"It is not appropriate to move at the critical moment of merging with the Dao. After the merging with the Dao is completed, it is time to rectify them."
"If they continue to make trouble, the order that was finally established will be broken."
At this time.
Three Immortals Island.
Gu Xiu had long known that Yuanshi Tianzun would definitely come to Jinao Island to ask for the Nine-Dragon Fire Cover and the Demon-Subduing Pestle, so he was not surprised at all.
Princess Long Ji, on the other hand, was very surprised.
She didn't expect that this matter would make three Saints appear together.
On the side of the three Xiao sisters, seeing Supreme Master Laozi come to pull the partial frame, they all frowned.
A trace of worry flashed on Yun Xiao's dignified and beautiful face.
But they couldn't comment on the affairs of the Saints.
Bi Xiao had a straightforward temperament and couldn't help but complain.
"The sect leaders of the Ren and Chan Sects are too hateful, actually joining forces to bully the Master."
"Third Sister, we must not discuss the affairs of the Saints. I believe the Master has his own decision." Yun Xiao hurriedly stopped her.
Although Bi Xiao was unwilling, she knew that Yun Xiao's words were reasonable, so she endured her temper and continued to cast her gaze on the sky above Jinao Island.
Above Jinao Island.
Supreme Master Laozi came to pull the partial frame, and Tong Tian was very unhappy in his heart.
But he couldn't get angry, so he had to say: "Big Brother, I still say the same thing. The Nine-Dragon Fire Cover is indeed in my Jie Sect's hands. As for the Demon-Subduing Pestle, I don't know anything about it, so don't put it on the Jie Sect's head."
"But the Nine-Dragon Fire Cover can only be sent to the Jade Void Palace after the Investiture of the Gods ends. If the two brothers are unwilling, then you can only take it back from my hands yourself."
Yuanshi Tianzun heard these words, and anger rose from his heart, shouting in a panic: "Tong Tian, do you really think I dare not?"
As he said this, the Saintly power around him surged, wanting to fight with Tong Tian.
Supreme Master Laozi gave a look and persuaded Yuanshi Tianzun.
Then Supreme Master Laozi spoke slowly: "Third Brother, the Investiture of the Gods is imminent. The Twelve Golden Immortals of the Jade Void bear the killing calamity and need magic treasures for self-defense. Why not let Second Brother exchange for the magic treasures with spiritual roots of equal value?"
Although Tong Tian didn't value the Investiture of the Gods and thought it was the Chan Sect's business and didn't want his disciples to participate.
But recently, after Gu Xiu mentioned it, he also thought about it seriously.
Thinking of Gu Xiu's excellence and Nuwa's importance to him.
Anyway, the Three Pure Ones had already separated, and Tong Tian didn't mind offending Yuanshi Tianzun again. His expression was peaceful, and his tone was decisive.
"Big Brother, for the Investiture of the Gods, the Teacher let the three sects enter the calamity, so we are currently opponents. We should not have too much contact and should avoid suspicion. After the Investiture of the Gods ends, I will return the magic treasures. There is no need for Second Brother to exchange with spiritual roots."
"I remember Perfected Taiyi is deeply loved by Second Brother and has been given many magic treasures. Without a Nine-Dragon Fire Cover, it doesn't count for anything. Of course, if Big Brother is willing to take the Nine-Turn Golden Pill as an exchange, I can consider it."
The Nine-Turn Golden Pill was extremely precious, and its value was far higher than the Nine-Dragon Fire Cover. Supreme Master Laozi could refine it, but it required many top-grade heavenly materials and spiritual roots to match, and it was not guaranteed to refine the Nine-Turn quality.
If he let Supreme Master Laozi give it away casually, he wouldn't be willing either.
But Yuanshi Tianzun heard that there was still a turning point and looked at Supreme Master Laozi.
"Big Brother..."
Before he finished speaking, he was interrupted by Supreme Master Laozi.
"Second Brother, I don't have the Nine-Turn Golden Pill in my hand right now. The new one is still being refined, and it will take some time."
Then, he looked at Tong Tian, his eyes deep and complex, and said slowly.
"Third Brother, let's go back first and give you an answer."
"Big Brother, Second Brother, take care." Tong Tian's expression was calm.
He proposed to ask for the Nine-Turn Golden Pill because the Nine-Dragon Fire Cover was a high-grade magic treasure with little effect, so he tried to ask for the Nine-Turn Golden Pill for Gu Xiu.
He originally wanted to find an excuse to go back and ask for Gu Xiu's meaning.
He didn't expect Supreme Master Laozi to directly propose the matter of consideration, so Tong Tian didn't waste his breath.
Yuanshi Tianzun snorted coldly, with a look of dissatisfaction, but since Supreme Master Laozi had said so, he had to give Supreme Master Laozi some face.
Seeing the two elder brothers break open the void, their figures disappeared into it.
Tong Tian shook his head.
"The three sects entered the calamity, and we should be opponents to each other. Big Brother, however, is as partial to Second Brother as ever..." ===== CHAPTER 283 =====
