Primordial Era: I, the Creation Lotus, will absolutely not be struck this time!

Chapter 37 Eastern King Duke: Yuanshi, come and be my dog!

"Tongtian, Nuwa, and Hongyun."

Hongjun's gaze swept over the strongest individuals.

"If not now, when?"

Hongjun couldn't hold back any longer. He discovered that after Laozi and the other two had severed their corpses, the others remained completely still.

"Reporting to the Corpse Master."

Tongtian rose.

"I feel that my accumulated knowledge is not enough to slay the benevolent corpse."

Nuwa and Hongyun nodded in agreement.

"Me too."

Emperor Jun, Fuxi, and the other innate deities seemed to have received some kind of signal.

He looked at Laozi, Yuanshi, and Zhunti with a mixture of envy and resentment.

"Damn it! I'm clearly stronger than them, so how come they managed to kill the corpse before me?"

Houtu scratched her face with her eight arms, watching everyone act without saying a word.

"Ha ha ha ha!"

Yuanshi, who was always immersed in showing off and feeling superior, did not realize the difference between himself and Zhunti and Laozi.

Seeing the defeated expressions on the faces of Nuwa and other innate deities who were originally of higher realms than him, he was overjoyed.

"A bunch of vulgar people dare to even dream of dismembering a corpse?"

Yuanshi sat upright on a futon, his words exuding an air of superiority.

I felt that all the pent-up anger from the past was finally released at this moment.

To emphasize his own nobility, Yuanshi sat on the futon without even turning his head, and didn't see the fleeting mockery in Dijun and the others' eyes.

It's even less likely that you'd see Hongjun frown.

"Ungrateful wretch."

Lao Tzu's gaze naturally did not escape Hongjun's observation.

He knew that Laozi was starting to blame him, and that once Yuanshi understood the situation, he might also blame him.

But without him, neither of you could have taken even this small step.

Can we blame him for insisting on using a low-grade or mid-grade innate spiritual treasure to sever the corpse?

Since the two were already trapped, Hongjun didn't care. What he cared about was that Tongtian and Nuwa hadn't severed their corpses.

"Not enough experience yet?"

The foundations of each of them are so strong that Hongjun even suspects they could directly sever their two corpses, yet they still haven't accumulated enough?

Hongjun understood; Qingyi was undoubtedly involved in this.

However, he remained calm, for this was the only way for the Primordial World to attain enlightenment.

Even Qingyi couldn't change that; at most, he could only get some high-grade or top-grade innate spiritual treasures for Tongtian and the others.

However, as long as one practices the method of severing the three corpses, one will eventually fall into the trap.

Hongjun didn't believe that these people could resist the temptation of a Quasi-Saint.

Could the fiery passion in the eyes of Nuwa, Hongyun, Dijun, and others be an act?

Thinking of this, Hongjun breathed a sigh of relief.

"Alright, next time we will talk about the way of the sage. If we cannot sever the corpse, then there will be no way to continue."

Just in case, Hongjun gave a heads-up.

"Is a sage the current level of the Corpse Lord?"

Zhunti asked somewhat impatiently.

Unexpectedly, Zhunti, who was brought in just to make up the numbers, was flattered, and Hongjun nodded in satisfaction.

"That's right, I'm at the level of a sage now, so I should sever my corpse as soon as possible."

After being reminded again, Hongjun changed the subject and turned his attention to the Eastern King Duke.

"The Corpse Master".

Dongwanggong trembled. He was not tempted by Hongjun's words. He was very flustered when Hongjun looked at him like that.

"I also haven't accumulated enough experience."

Hongjun felt a chill run down his spine, but he didn't pursue the matter.

He addressed all the guests in the Purple Cloud Palace, saying, "The primordial world has been in chaos for a long time, and disorder is about to appear."

"You primordial beings, there must be a great being to uphold your responsibilities and maintain order."

These words were heard by the powerful figures in Pangu Mausoleum.

That means—the thief who stole the sky is looking for Er Gouzi.

Dongwanggong immediately sensed something was wrong; he felt that Hongjun, that old scoundrel, was trying to trick him.

"Dongwanggong is the embodiment of the pure Yang energy of the Eastern Flower, and is the head of the male immortals in the primordial world."

What you fear most is what happens.

Hongjun didn't give Dongwanggong a chance to speak again. A ray of light landed in front of Dongwanggong and transformed into a dragon-headed walking stick.

"From now on, all male immortals in the primordial world must be included in the Immortal Register, and you will be in charge."

Hongjun looked at the Queen Mother of the West again.

"The Queen Mother of the West was formed from the pure and wondrous Yin energy of the Western Flower, and was the head of all female immortals in the primordial world."

At this point, Hongjun paused, feeling that the Plain Cloud Banner, one of the Five Banners, was more suitable for the Queen Mother of the West.

But he gave it to Qingyi, and with a wave of his hand, a phoenix-winged hairpin landed in front of the Queen Mother of the West.

"All the female immortals of the primordial world are recorded in the golden book, and you shall command them."

"This concludes the second sermon. The next sermon will be held one epoch later."

As soon as he finished speaking, Hongjun vanished without a trace.

All the innate deities were also directly sent out of Zixiao Palace.

Wow!

The square in front of Zixiao Palace was stirred up quite a bit.

Especially the Eastern King Duke, who was surrounded by a circle of male innate beings.

"We have met the Eastern King Duke."

These innate beings had never been to Pangu's Mausoleum, so they attached great importance to the male immortals personally appointed by the Dao Ancestor.

The Eastern King Duke is one of the most elite deities, and we hope to receive his protection.

On the other side, the Queen Mother of the West, was a group of female immortals.

At this moment, the Eastern King Duke and the Western Queen Mother were terrified. They looked at the outermost Pangu Mausoleum lineage with amused expressions.

Er Gouzi, you are the second dog of Hongjun the old thief.

Even the kind-hearted Hongyun looked at the two of them with a mocking expression.

The Eastern King Duke and the Western Queen Mother were almost crying; they didn't want to be in that position.

But they didn't give him a chance to refuse.

"How could the loyalty of the Eastern King Duke to the Dao Ancestor be shaken by a mere title of Head of Male Immortals? Besides, how can a title bestowed by a traitor be considered valid?"

The Eastern King Duke was genuinely uninterested; he would have been very happy if Qing Yi had bestowed the title upon him.

The Queen Mother of the West shared the same idea.

The entire Pangu Mausoleum lineage thinks this way: the old thief's decree doesn't count, so they're all watching the Eastern King Duke make a fool of himself.

Dongwanggong felt that he couldn't shake off this dark history.

"What bad luck! How could I be a manifestation of pure yang energy? How could I have the destiny of an emperor!"

"You old scoundrel Hongjun, I will never let you get away with this!"

The Eastern King roared inwardly.

Suddenly he saw the look in Nuwa's eyes.

He immediately understood that since it had been given to him, he should accept it for now, since they were no match for Hongjun anyway.

Dong Wanggong suddenly realized that his long-held idea of ​​creating a powerful force could now be put into practice.

At the same time, could he be considered to be holding the decree of the sage?

Although the sage's teachings were nothing to him, some people still believed in them.

Dongwanggong saw Yuanshi outside with a glint in his eyes.

Yuan Shi was extremely unwilling.

He didn't care about the title of the head of male immortals, but such a title was given to Dongwanggong, who wasn't even a quasi-saint.

What did he lack in Yuanshi?

Do you want him to obey the orders of the Eastern King Duke?

impossible.

"Fellow Daoist Yuanshi."

You call me a vulgar person? Then I'll use you to establish my authority.

It just so happens that the Dao Ancestor also said that you are an unfilial son. As someone who is closely united with the Dao Ancestor, I must help the Dao Ancestor vent his anger.

Dongwanggong bypassed the innate deities surrounding him and came directly to Yuanshi.

"I am acting on the orders of the Corpse Lord to prepare for the establishment of the Celestial Court."

"From this day forward, Fellow Daoist Yuanshi will be the War God of our Immortal Court, with the title of Qisheng," meaning equal to a saint and holding the highest official rank!

Wow~

All living beings were in an uproar, their gazes toward Yuanshi filled with envy.

To hold the highest official rank, on par with a saint—this honor is simply incredible.

The Eastern King is so majestic that one can enter the celestial court.

But Yuanshi was unhappy. So what if he was Qi Sheng? Joining the Celestial Court meant he would have to be subordinate to the Eastern King Duke.

No matter what official position one holds, in Yuanshi's ears, it all means: Yuanshi, come and be my dog.

"Hmph, you mere Grand Luo Golden Immortal, how dare you speak to me like that? Get lost!"

Yuanshi was furious.

"What is the meaning of this, Fellow Daoist Yuanshi?"

Dongwanggong had an expression that said, "My good intentions have been wasted."

"I have already granted you the highest official rank, fellow Daoist. Is it possible that you are not satisfied with the title of Sage?"

This statement is utterly offensive; even the Primordial Beginning would not accept it.

"Dongwanggong, your Celestial Court is not worthy of my joining. Become a Quasi-Saint first."

Yuanshi glanced at Dongwanggong with disdain.

"So you're disobeying the sage's command?"

The Eastern King Duke erected a dragon-headed walking stick.

A group of primordial creatures chirped around them.

"Fellow Daoist Dongwanggong is quite strong; he should be close to severing his corpse as well."

"That's right, they gave Yuanshi such a high official position and title, and he was still not satisfied."

"Hmph, have you forgotten? This guy comes from Dong Kunlun. Rumor has it that Dong Kunlun's character is... tsk tsk."

"I guess he wants to become the head of all male immortals."

Everyone present was a celestial being, so this whispered discussion was no different from talking in someone's ear.

The primordial moment was instantly red and warm.
