Chapter 153: The goddess dances, her beauty unrivaled throughout eternity, the crimson clouds long for her!
Regaining control of a law's power is of great help to Chen Ku.
And as the saying goes, "returning a peach for a plum."
At this moment, Chen Ku's heart stirred, and he also thought of something.
"Since the two goddesses have decided to stay in the West, they are now my Western people, united in heart and virtue."
"I observe that the two goddesses have no spiritual treasures protecting them."
"These two top-grade innate spiritual treasures are actually suitable for the two of you."
Speaking, Chen Ku flipped his palm, and the Cold Moon Hook and Bind Star Lock he had previously obtained instantly appeared.
He unhesitatingly gave the two spiritual treasures to Xi He and Chang'e.
Seeing this, Jieyin and Zhunti were stunned.
Immediately exchanging a glance, they both revealed a knowing smile.
This disciple (nephew-disciple) of mine is really quite capable.
They have indeed seen Chen Ku's foundations.
Just two top-grade innate spiritual treasures are nothing to Chen Ku.
However, giving them now to Xi He and Chang'e, the latter's feelings are completely different.
Jieyin clearly noticed that, in response to Chen Ku's action, the two women's beautiful eyes almost had little stars twinkling.
This way, Xi He and Chang'e will surely be more determined to stay in the West, sharing weal and woe with them.
Thoughtful!
So thoughtful!
Even the ice-cold to the bone Xi He cannot remain calm.
"How... can we sisters possibly deserve such grace from fellow Daoist?!"
Xi He blurted out instinctively, her face showing startled gratitude.
You should know that the two women's gift of fine wine was originally to repay Chen Ku for rescuing Chang'e and exposing the great kindness of Yue Lao and others.
Moreover, staying in the West now under the protection of Jieyin and Zhunti, in Xi He and Chang'e's view, is also them taking advantage of the West.
How could they feel embarrassed to accept Chen Ku's gifted spiritual treasures?
However, Chen Ku's expression was firm, and he said without room for doubt:
"Fellow Daoist Xi He, you need not refuse."
"These two spiritual treasures originally belonged to the Cold Toad and the Whistling Moon Old Ancestor who schemed against you."
"Now handing them over to you to manage is also perfectly natural."
Having come to this point, Xi He could not say much more.
"This... this palace thanks Fellow Daoist Chen Ku."
She expressed thanks again, and then accepted the two spiritual treasures.
Watching this scene, Jieyin beside them also gave a light laugh.
"Heh, since the disciple is so generous,"
"then as master and your master-uncle, we naturally ought to show something as well."
Before his words finished, Jieyin flicked a finger.
Instantly, only see immortal light flowing, brilliant and gorgeous, extremely dazzling.
Within the immortal light, another two spiritual treasures manifested.
"These two spiritual treasures are the Phoenix Rosy Cloud Cape and the Seven-Colored Rainbow; both are defensive spiritual treasures, ranked as middle-grade innate."
"And they happen to be suitable for female immortals to use."
"Today, it just so happens to be perfect to give them to the two goddesses."
These two spiritual treasures were originally obtained by Jieyin and Zhunti at the Treasure-Splitting Rock.
Moreover, they do not have Chen Ku's astonishing accumulation.
Fortunately, these two spiritual treasures are innately suited for female cultivators, so they are appropriate now.
Xi He and Chang'e were even more delighted!
In a single day, they actually obtained four spiritual treasures?!
Such an opportunity, even on Taiyin Xing, one would not dare to imagine.
The West... is indeed no longer as barren as before.
Thinking this, only see the Seven-Colored Rainbow and Phoenix Rosy Cloud Cape set up in the high heavens, pouring down holy immortal light.
The two women instinctively leapt up and draped the two spiritual treasures over themselves.
In an instant, the void seemed to have strains of wondrous immortal music flowing, like divine music echoing, immortal sounds filling the ears, extremely moving.
And the figures of Xi He and Chang'e also moved with the immortal music, gracefully beginning to dance.
The two women's postures swayed, dancing upon the vast sky, exquisitely beautiful beyond words.
Every gesture, every frown and smile, exuded a charm that could overturn the ages.
Spiritual light swayed, immortal cranes gathered, and spiritual birds accompanied beside the two women.
Under their feet, the sea of clouds surged, magnificent and splendid.
This is a beauty unparalleled throughout eternity.
Even a mere fleeting glimpse of a startled swan makes it unforgettable for myriad ages.
Unknowingly, Chen Ku, as well as Jieyin and Zhunti, etc., all looked somewhat lost in thought, completely immersed.
The silken robes flutter, the light skirts follow the wind!
Graceful as a startled swan, like a swimming dragon!
Hehe, how wonderful, how wonderful!
The goddess dances, her beauty unsurpassed through the ages—indeed, too beautiful to take in.
Jieyin and Zhunti praised.
Beside him, Chen Ku's heart also stirred greatly.
Bitterness... bitterness...
Our Western Heaven and Earth is simply lacking too many female disciples.
Otherwise, we must certainly take on more.
Without saying anything else, even just being this pleasing to the eye makes this life not wasted.
Chen Ku thought this to himself.
In the legends, after the era of the sages arrived, the Jie Sect actually took in many female disciples.
Such as the Golden Spirit Holy Mother, the Peerless Holy Mother, and the Three Auspicious, each one an unparalleled goddess.
Looking at it this way, it is still that Sage Who Penetrates Heaven, 'Mingzhi,' who is wise.
After a long while, amidst everyone's astonishment, the celestial music from the void slowly faded away.
When the piece ended, the figures of Xihe and Changxi also gradually came to a stop.
The heavenly light filling the sky faded with it, and the miraculous phenomena gradually dissipated.
Haha, good!
Being able to watch the goddess dance upon the vast heavens today is truly a great fortune in life.
Chen Ku led the applause, sparing no words of praise.
Jieyin, Zhunti, and the others likewise smiled and nodded, their words full of awe.
Xihe and Changxi returned to the side of the few people; hearing Chen Ku's praise, they couldn't help but blush slightly, adding an indescribable charm.
Beside them, Hong Yun stared blankly, lost in thought.
Envious!
So envious!
You know, Xihe and Changxi are existences that cause countless male cultivators to flock to them.
If this scene were witnessed by other powerful beings, even just for the bearing of the two goddesses, they might well be unable to resist coming to cultivate in the West.
More importantly, how Jieyin, Zhunti, and the others treat Xihe and Changxi also stirs Hong Yun's heart greatly.
These two women have just joined the West; they not only received the protection personally promised by Jieyin and Zhunti,
but also gained various innate spiritual treasures!!
This treatment... is also too good!
If this poor Daoist were to join the West, could I also do so?
Unbeknownst to himself, Hong Yun's heart had already given rise to such a thought.
Hong Yun glanced at Xihe and Changxi, then looked toward Jieyin, Zhunti, and the others.
In his gaze lay an indescribable meaning, along with a feeling of wanting to speak but holding back.
Chen Ku said nothing, yet he had already taken in all of Hong Yun's various reactions into his heart.
Hehe, not bad, not bad!
This venerable one wants exactly this effect.
Chen Ku's heart stirred with great thoughts.
In fact, earlier, when he first saw Hong Yun, Chen Ku had already conceived the idea of subduing him and bringing him into the West.
Such a rare powerhouse, if he were to later fall into the hands of the giant fish‑bird and others, would indeed be a shame.
Hong Yun's strength is unquestionable; as an innate great power, even if not matching Jieyin and Zhunti, he is still counted among the world's top existences.
Moreover, he possesses Primordial Purple Qi.
As long as he does not fall midway, thereafter using this to prove the Dao and become a sage is no difficult feat.
By then, the West could indeed have three sages in full.
Absolutely invincible in the world!
Especially after the Three Pure Ones go their separate ways, the Western school's three sages, said to walk sideways between heaven and earth, is no exaggeration.
And precisely for this reason, earlier he brought Hong Yun back to the Western Heaven and Earth together.
The purpose was to let Hong Yun see the changes in the West, and their attitude toward other powerful beings.
However, although he thought this, Chen Ku did not say much, merely sipping lightly at the Lunar Yin Jade Dew in his hand with a faint smile.
Hong Yun differs from Xihe and Changxi; he has not yet realized the great crisis he faces.
Therefore, if he were to actively reach out to win him over, it would instead be unbecoming, appearing too deliberate.
Only by truly moving Hong Yun's heart and having him propose joining the West would be the best outcome.
Moreover, Chen Ku is not in a hurry; as long as he temporarily plants such a seed in Hong Yun's heart, he need not fear that it will not bear fruit later.
On the other side, Jieyin, observing Chen Ku's expression, also understood what he thought.
A glance exchanged, the two understood each other without words.
My own disciple, his layout is truly superb!
