Chapter 1485: This Heavenly Court, Do I Still Get a Say? (4/5, please subscribe)

After thinking for a few breaths, Haotian and Yaochi exchanged a glance, but still accepted the people and began making arrangements.

There was no choice.

They could go crying to Hongjun, saying the three teachings wouldn't give them people and they wanted divine spirits.

Was Tongtian not an option?

Now that people have been sent over, and you still won't accept them.

If it got to Hongjun, the two of them probably wouldn't get off easy either.

When we don't give you people, you make a fuss!

When we give them to you, you don't want them!

What kind of game are you playing?

Haotian and Wang Mu could only pinch their noses and accept their fate.

It took several days, but the Jiao Sect immortals were finally arranged.

Originally, the Heavenly Court only had the structure of the Four Emperors, but the Jiao Sect had too many quasi-saints. In the end, after Haotian, Yaochi, Duobao, and others discussed it, they changed it to Six Emperors.

Namely the Jade Emperor, the Qinghua Emperor, the Central Heaven Purple Star Arctic Emperor, the South Pole Longevity Emperor, the Gouchen Upper Palace Heavenly Emperor, and the Houtu Earth God.

Haotian and Yaochi took two of the emperor positions, and the remaining four were naturally taken by the four great disciples of the Jiao Sect.

For a moment, both Haotian and Yaochi suspected that the Jiao Sect had made the Heavenly Court into a hollow shell for them.

"The Heavenly Court is full of Jiao Sect people. Will our words still carry weight in the future?" Haotian once again felt the sweet troubles of life.

When there were no people, there was trouble; when there were people, there was still trouble.

Fortunately, the Jiao Sect disciples were fairly conscientious, managing their divine duties quite well.

Of course, they only managed their divine duties.

If Haotian and Yaochi wanted the Jiao Sect immortals to run some private errands for them, that would be absolutely impossible.

They had come on orders to fight for the Jiao Sect's future, not to truly serve as Haotian and Yaochi's subordinates.

"No, we still need to recruit some trusted followers," Haotian deliberated. "Even as Heavenly Emperors, it's impossible to have no private matters at all. Someone has to handle these things."

Yaochi nodded: "Yes, we really should have a group of our own trusted followers."

While the two were secretly plotting to cultivate their own forces, the mortal world had already stirred up a huge uproar.

……

Kunlun.

"That's not right~ˇ!" Yuanshi Tianzun frowned. "Given Tongtian's temperament, how could he possibly back down and send people to serve in the Heavenly Court?"

"Did he calculate something? Or does he want to retreat?"

After thinking it over, he felt it was impossible.

Back when the three brothers' relationship was still good, he and Laozi had also advised Tongtian.

The timing was so good back then, yet Tongtian didn't retreat. Now there's no one giving him a way out, and yet he retreats—does he still want the face of a saint?

"The heavenly secrets are chaotic, I still can't divine anything. This matter of the Investiture of the Gods is probably going to be difficult!"

The Investiture of the Gods war originally arose because of the Investiture of the Gods. Now, whether it's the Four Emperors of the Heavenly Court or the 365 main god positions, they're all filled.

To pick minor gods, do they need to start another great war?

Western Sect.

"Senior brother, what should we do?"

"I did convert some Jiao Sect disciples before, but I didn't expect the impact to be this big." Zhunti frowned bitterly, at a loss.

Jieyin shook his head: "The Jiao Sect disciples you converted had already left the Jiao Sect to begin with, so the impact isn't big. This should be Senior Brother Tongtian playing chess. If they don't fight, how can our Western Sect flourish?"

Although now several tenths of the Jiao Sect disciples who fled had been converted, and the Western Pure Land had become very lively.

But those Jiao Sect disciples who fled were all useless good-for-nothings.

If it weren't for the Western Sect's powerful conversion divine abilities, who knows how much trouble these people converted into Western Sect followers would have caused!

"Then what should we do?"

Jieyin sighed: "Of course we still need to find a way to make them fight. Although they've entered the Heavenly Court, they're not without desires. We can always provoke their anger and make them fight."

Zhunti nodded: "Senior brother speaks wisely."

Jieyin: "I'll go to the mortal world, you go to the Chan Sect to stir things up. Remember to act carefully and don't let anyone discover you."

"Don't worry, senior brother."

The two exchanged a glance, concealed the heavenly secrets, transformed into escaping light, and disappeared into the Western Pure Land.

And the loose cultivators of the mortal world.

This period of time was simply disastrous for them.

The Jiao Sect disciples joining the Heavenly Court made the Heavenly Court's power unprecedentedly strong.

In the past, cultivators who caused chaos and evil deeds were beyond the Heavenly Court's reach.

Now, with the Jiao Sect's arrival, these people were directly suppressed one by one.

Even quasi-saint level strongmen were no exception.
