Chapter 365

It could be completely comparable to some of the three thousand Chaos God-Demons.

Of course, compared to the top-tier ones, it was still quite a bit behind.

He still needed to continue working hard.

In this seclusion, Hongxuan successfully transformed multiple laws into rules.

Most importantly, his physical body broke through, advancing to the tenth turn.

At the same time, his origin was improved again.

He directly surpassed the six Saints of the Primordial world.

His future achievements would inevitably surpass the six Saints of the Primordial world.

The premise was that the Primordial world would not court death.

If he fell halfway, that would be another matter.

Pinching his fingers to calculate, the Great Tribulation of the Investiture of the Gods had already begun, and it was time for him to enter the arena.

At the same time, many of the scripts he had prepared were also time to begin.

Now, the Western Earl Ji Chang had already died.

Jiang Ziya was leading the Xiqi army to start the crusade against Zhou.

Whether it was the Chan Sect or the Jie Sect, they had already entered the game.

As for the Western Sect, they were watching from the sidelines.

It was just a pity that how could Hongxuan forget the Western Sect? They were a very useful pawn.

Wouldn't it be a waste not to use them?!

Just out of seclusion, Hongxuan prepared to head to the Shang-Zhou battlefield.

Suddenly, a message came from his Divine Dao incarnation in his mind.

The Heavenly Court's Great Heavenly Venerable Haotian actually had something to discuss with him.

Hongxuan pondered for a moment, his figure moved, and he went directly to the Heavenly Court.

Heavenly Court, Lingxiao Treasure Hall.

"Fellow Daoist Hongxuan, long time no see. I didn't expect your cultivation to have improved again; congratulations!"

"Just luck, it's just a small step closer to the Great Dao in my heart; I still need to continue working hard!"

"I wonder why the Great Heavenly Venerable specifically sent someone to find me this time; is there something the matter?"

"Fellow Daoist Hongxuan should know that this Great Tribulation of the Investiture of the Gods is extraordinary, and my daughter Long Ji is unfortunately in the tribulation. Before long, I fear she will have to walk through the tribulation!"

"With Long Ji's cultivation, if no one protects her in the dark, she will likely not be able to pass the tribulation!"

Hearing the helplessness in Haotian's tone, Hongxuan raised his brows slightly.

He actually detected a trace of concern in Haotian's expression.

This made Hongxuan feel extremely surprised.

Back then, Haotian was so ruthless to Yaoji, and even to the Seven Fairies, he seemed to have little father-daughter affection.

It was more like ruler and subject, master and servant.

Hongxuan thought Haotian was a heartless person.

Who only cared about interests.

He didn't expect him to have a daughter he cared about, Princess Long Ji.

However, as daughters of Haotian, why was the gap between the Seven Fairies and Long Ji so large?

It seemed Long Ji was the daughter of Haotian and Yaochi.

While the Seven Fairies were the daughters of the mortal Zhang Bairen and the mortal form transformed from Yaochi's good corpse.

Even after Zhang Bairen returned to Haotian and the good corpse returned to Yaochi,

in terms of affection and bloodline, the Seven Fairies were indeed much worse than Long Ji.

At least, the current Princess Long Ji was already at the Taiyi Jinxian realm.

While the Seven Fairies, after ascending to heaven and cultivating for so many years, were only barely Profound Immortals.

It was unknown how long it would take for them to become Golden Immortals in the future.

Taiyi Jinxian, or even Daluo Jinxian, the possibility was almost small to none.

In the eyes of Haotian and Yaochi, the Seven Fairies had low potential and very low cultivation value.

Compared to Long Ji, it seemed they were far behind.

It was understandable that there was such a large gap in treatment.

It was just a pity for the Seven Fairies; their former parents and their current parents were likely completely different.

No wonder in the future, the Seven Fairies would fall into love tribulations one by one, unable to extricate themselves.

Pitiable and lamentable.

However, all of this was Haotian's family business, and Hongxuan was too lazy to care.

Why did Haotian call him over this time to talk about this?!

"I wonder what the Great Heavenly Venerable means is..."

"I ask Fellow Daoist Hongxuan to take extra care of Long Ji in the Great Tribulation."

"I believe with your ability, as long as you are truly willing to protect Long Ji, you should be able to easily let Long Ji escape the tribulation!"

"The Great Heavenly Venerable jokes. I calculated not long ago that I would be targeted by Saints in the Great Tribulation and could barely protect myself, so how could I protect Princess Long Ji?"

"Perhaps the Great Heavenly Venerable could ask the Chan Sect disciples?"

Hearing Hongxuan's words, Haotian snorted coldly:

"Chan Sect disciples? Fellow Daoist jokes. With the character of those guys, if I really did that, wouldn't Long Ji die even faster?"

"They can even easily discard their own personal disciples; they are so despicable, how could they care about my face?!"

"Only someone as loyal and righteous as Hongxuan is more worthy of my trust!"

Hongxuan was silent, noncommittal about Haotian's praise.

Loyal and righteous?

Being evaluated like this in the Primordial world—is it a compliment or a derogatory term?

Anyway, in the hearts of many Primordial powerhouses, loyal and righteous is a solid derogatory term.

Instead, being heartless, ruthless, and selfish has become a true compliment in the hearts of many powerhouses.

Moreover, hearing such words from Haotian, Hongxuan always felt it was extremely harsh.

"Great Heavenly Venerable, after the Great Tribulation of the Investiture of the Gods, I intend to appoint Yang Jiao as the new guardian god-general of my Ziwei Imperial Palace."

"I wonder what advice you have for this appointment of mine?"

Hongxuan did not answer immediately, instead talking about something else.

"Yang Jiao? Is that the son of Yaoji who was secretly saved by the Ziwei Emperor back then?"

"Originally, I thought the Emperor had taken Yang Jiao as a disciple; I didn't expect it to be appointing him as a god-general of the Ziwei Imperial Palace."

"I imagine that under the Emperor's teaching, Yang Jiao's cultivation must be extraordinary, and he is qualified to become a god-general."

"I think the Emperor's appointment is quite wonderful!"

Haotian seemed not to have heard the meaning in Hongxuan's words at all, or perhaps he didn't know about the hatred between Yang Jiao and him.

Instead, he nodded in agreement.

"Many thanks, Great Heavenly Venerable!"

"Since that is the case, in the upcoming Great War of the Investiture of the Gods, I will protect Princess Long Ji well and will absolutely not let her fall into a death tribulation."

"However, the Great Tribulation is full of crises, and Princess Long Ji will inevitably suffer some tribulations, large or small; the pain will not be little!"

"Haha, as long as her life can be saved, what is a little pain?"

"Many thanks to Fellow Daoist Hongxuan for giving me this face!"

"Hehe, Great Heavenly Venerable, we are all the same!"

Hongxuan and Haotian's tones were extremely polite, but they both understood each other's meaning.

Primordial land, at the peak of a very ordinary mountain range.

Hongxuan sat cross-legged, with a tea table in front of him.

The faint fragrance of tea drifted and overflowed.

Hongxuan picked up the teacup very comfortably and tasted it carefully. ===== CHAPTER 366 =====
