Upon hearing Zhulong's words, the Dragon Demon King glared at the Jade Emperor on the high platform. After hesitating for a moment, he finally chose to lower his head and admit his mistake.
After all, the ancestor had already stepped in, so there was no need for him to continue being stubborn.
However, before the Dragon Demon King could say anything, the Jade Emperor snorted coldly.
"Hmph, Daoist Torch Dragon, these seven demon saints have offended the dignity of the Heavenly Court. How can you just call them young and ignorant?”
The Jade Emperor felt very unhappy. This feeling was too stifling.
Back when he first took over the Heavenly Court, the Heavenly Court lacked manpower. They had the title of the ruler of the three worlds, but they could not interfere in the management of the three worlds.
At that time, there were even Saints high above, making him, the nominal master of the three worlds, have no power at all.
It was not easy to wait until after the apotheosis. The Heavenly Court had enough manpower, and the Saints were also grounded in the Chaos and could not interfere in the affairs of the three worlds. He had thought that he was finally worthy of being the master of the three worlds, but he realized that there were still some veteran Quasi-Sages in the three worlds who could ignore the dignity of the Heavenly Court.
It was precisely because of this that the Jade Emperor was willing to conspire with Tathagata to seek benefits from the Journey to the West. He would obtain boundless merit in the Cultivation Tribulation, so that the Heavenly Court would grow stronger and no longer fear anyone.
Now, the great event had yet to be accomplished, and the Fire Dragon Ancestor had actually barged into his Soaring Heaven King Palace and stood in the shop to ask him for him. He did not seem to care about the offense of his junior at all. How could the Jade Emperor tolerate this?
Torch Dragon was strong, but the Heavenly Court was not weak either. Not to mention that he and Queen Mother were both Quasi-Sages, they were also Connate Numinous treasures bestowed by the Dao Ancestor to suppress the Heavenly Court. If they really fought, they might not be afraid of Torch Dragon.
While the Jade Emperor was thinking about it, Zhu Long was stunned when he heard the Jade Emperor's firm words.
He did not expect that the Jade Emperor, whom he looked down on, would actually dare to reject him when he had personally come forward to ask for him.
"Oh? What do you think?" Zhulong's pupils constricted, and he didn't even call him Fellow Daoist anymore.
"These six demon monarchs have offended our Heavenly Courts, so they naturally have to receive the punishment they deserve. Fellow Daoist Torch Dragon wanted to take him away, but it was too unreasonable. If Fellow Daoist Zhulong really wants to force his way in, even though the Heavenly Court doesn't have any experts, a Quasi-Sage like Fellow Daoist Zhulong can't do whatever he wants!”
Since they had already shed all pretense of cordiality, the Jade Emperor no longer hid anything. The Heavenly Court had two Sage-to-be, him and the Queen Mother. The Western Paradise Buddhist Sect had already formed an alliance. Even if he was really no match for them, as an ally, Gautama Buddha would not just stand by and do nothing.
Since that was the case, why was he still being bullied like this?
Hearing the Jade Emperor's words, Zhulong's face darkened completely." Jade Emperor, are you not going to give me face?”
The Jade Emperor nodded." The Heavenly Court has its own dignity. If we were to force our way through, I'm afraid that you won't be able to get away with it alone!”
As soon as the Jade Emperor finished speaking, another Sage-to-be's aura locked onto Zhulong in the Jade Pool. The three Sage-to-be's auras faced each other from afar, and it seemed that they would fight if they didn't get along.
Just as the Jade Emperor and the Queen Mother were about to force Zhulong away, and Zhulong's expression was gloomy and conflicted, another voice sounded from the Soaring Heaven King Palace.
As soon as he finished speaking, another old man in a golden Emperor's robe suddenly appeared in the Soaring Heaven King Palace.
The smile on the Jade Emperor's face faded when he saw the old man. His face darkened again." Lion Ancestor!”
"Fellow Daoist Zhulong and I have already given your Heavenly Court enough face by coming here to ask for him. Isn't that enough?”The Lion Ancestor said as he looked at the Jade Emperor, whose expression had darkened again.
"Not enough!" Although two Quasi-Sages had come, since they had already shed all pretense of cordiality, it would only be more embarrassing for the Jade Emperor to be forced to admit defeat. Therefore, he could only walk down the path to the end!
Although the other party had two veteran Quasi-Sages, it wasn't like they didn't have a way to deal with them.
However, just as this thought appeared in his mind, another old voice sounded in the hall.
"If so, what if we add this old Daoist?"
As soon as he finished speaking, an old man in a Yin Yang Daoist robe appeared above the Soaring Heaven King Palace.
"Yin Yang Patriarch!" The Jade Emperor's face darkened when he saw the person who had come.
He would never have thought that these six Monster Kings would attract three old Quasi-Sages. Although he knew that these people had powerful backers, he didn't think that these Quasi-Sages would come all the way here for the sake of a few juniors. However, it seemed that he had miscalculated.
If he had known this would happen, he definitely wouldn't have made things difficult for the six demon monarchs. Unfortunately, it was too late now.
Just as the Jade Emperor was secretly regretting his decision, another figure silently appeared in the Soaring Heaven King Palace. The person did not speak. He just stood beside Zhulong and gave off an invisible sense of awe.
"Kun Peng, you want to join in?”The Jade Emperor's expression changed completely when he saw who it was.
He was more afraid of Kunpeng than he was of the other three Sage-to-be. Kunpeng was a ruthless man. Even Emperor Jun Taiyi had to show respect to him. In the war between the Sorcerer and Demon Tribe, Emperor Jun Taiyi had fallen and the eleven Ancestors of Sorcery had not survived. Only Kunpeng had survived until now. How could he not be respected?
However, the Jade Emperor's shock was not over yet. After the Kun Peng, another figure appeared silently in the Soaring Heaven King Palace.
The newcomer was dressed in a green robe, and his hair and beard were all green. He gave off a very strange feeling, but no one dared to underestimate such a person.
"Green-robed Patriarch!" The Jade Emperor called out the person's name again. At this moment, he knew that even with the power of the Buddhist League, he would not be able to resist the top existence among the five Sage-to-be, let alone the Heavenly Court.
This time, he really had to admit defeat.
Just as the Jade Emperor was about to open his mouth and release the six Monster Kings, a figure that no one had expected appeared.
The Jade Emperor's expression changed drastically when he saw the fiendish figure with a dark red face.
"Minghe, do you want to join in the fun?”
Hearing this, Minghe grinned at the Jade Emperor. Holding the Yuantu and Abi Swords in his hands, he said in a threatening manner," The Fuma of the Shura Tribe has been captured by you in a disgraceful way. Why don't you let me take him back?"”
Upon hearing Minghe's words, everyone remembered that the Bull Demon King had another identity besides being the mount of the Shangqing Sage.
His wife, Princess Iron Fan, who was known as Rakshasi, was the princess of the Asura Cult of the Bloody Sea and the adopted daughter of the Asura Cult Master, Minghe. With such a heavy identity, it was reasonable for a ruthless person like Minghe to be present.
