Chapter 1484

Whether for Yaochi or for Haotian, this was only a trivial matter.

"Sigh, I wonder when our Heavenly Court will ever be a little livelier." Haotian suddenly sighed with feeling. "When the Patriarch entrusted me with the heavy responsibility of overseeing the Three Realms, we have accomplished nothing at all — we truly let the Patriarch down."

Yaochi sighed: "There are no few great divine-power wielders between heaven and earth. With the likes of our abilities, how could we restrain them? How could we possibly oversee the authority of heaven and earth?"

Haotian nodded: "Indeed, there are far too many great divine-power wielders."

Just as they were speaking, a burst of hurried, disorderly footsteps sounded.

"Report, Your Majesty, Empress — a Jiao Sect immortal has come to visit, saying he wishes to help Your Majesty and the Empress oversee the Three Realms!"

"A Jiao Sect immortal?"

"Coming to serve as a divine spirit?"

Yaochi and Wang Mu exchanged a glance, both utterly shocked.

How on earth did these two things connect?

Haotian asked: "How many people, and what is their cultivation base?"

He was somewhat suspicious, because ever since the Investiture of the Gods plan began, the Jiao Sect had casually stuffed a few people over.

The heavenly general was utterly shocked: "Your Majesty, the visitors are very many — this humble general didn't have time to count them. However, I have actually seen the leader before: it is Duobao Daoren, Jin Ling Holy Mother, Wudang Holy Mother, and Gui Ling Holy Mother!"

"They came??"

Yaochi lost her composure and stood up.

These people were the most outstanding disciples of the Jiao Sect — how could they have run off to the Heavenly Court?

Haotian also wore an expression of utter disbelief.

"Are you certain you didn't see wrong?" Haotian asked.

The heavenly general wore a look of certainty and reported again: "Your Majesty, before this humble general ascended the immortal path, I once traveled to Jin Ao Island and witnessed the bearing of the various immortals — I would absolutely not mistake them."

Haotian and Yaochi exchanged a glance, both seeing the horror and disbelief in the other's eyes.

What on earth was going on?

Why had the Jiao Sect's elite disciples run off to the Heavenly Court?

There was no time to think further. The two straightened their attire and crowns, then went out to welcome them at the Southern Heavenly Gate.

A sweep of their gaze, and they immediately recognized many people.

The Jiao Sect's Four Great Disciples!

The Ten Heavenly Lords!

Luo Xuan!

Shiji!

These were all extremely famous figures!

"What performance are all my martial nephews putting on today?" Haotian asked, puzzled.

Duobao Daoren bowed: "Greetings to the two martial uncles. The Heavenly Court overseeing the authority of heaven and earth is originally a matter that benefits the Three Realms. We, in the past, were unaware; today we have suddenly awoken and have come especially to assist. We ask the two martial uncles to take us in."

Suddenly awoken today?

You're fooling a ghost!

Haotian didn't believe it one bit — not in a thousand, not in ten thousand.

As Quasi-Saint level powerhouses, without a heaven-shaking reason, they could not possibly change their past decisions.
