Transmigrating into Haotian, ruling the Three Pure Ones and pacifying the primordial world.

The cultivators who obtained the primordial spirit were astonished. They hadn't expected that their control over their life gate would return so easily. They thought they would be forever controlled by the Great Celestial Venerable!

"Your Majesty's grace is beyond our comprehension!" All the cultivators who had previously submitted to Haotian kowtowed excitedly, their faces filled with emotion.

Haotian's expression was stern: "Bai Ze, after court, you will take the Demon-Summoning Banner and release your primordial spirit."

Bai Ze suddenly raised his head and saw the deep meaning in Haotian's eyes. He immediately understood that only the demons he had subdued in the past should be released, while those who surrendered after the destruction of the Demon Court should be observed slowly.

"Yes, Your Majesty, I obey."

"Does Your Majesty have something to say?" Haotian felt his sleeve being gently tugged, and turned his head to ask softly.

The gods remained silent. The Great Heavenly Venerable was so powerful that no one in the Heavenly Court dared to defy him, but this goddess was equally ruthless.

When the Great Celestial Venerable and the Six Sages were mending the heavens, it was this Heavenly Empress who personally went to the Heavenly Court to maintain its disordered order and annihilated all the rebels and those with heavy karma.

The Law of Metal penetrates the physical body, while the Law of Yin freezes the primordial spirit. Anyone in the Heavenly Court who dares to resist is rendered utterly destroyed, body and soul.

Back then, everything in Heaven was arranged by this person. Although he hasn't uttered a word in the Lingxiao Palace today, no one dares to underestimate him.

"Your Majesty, I believe the Heavenly Court's timeline has changed." Yaochi parted her red lips slightly, pointed in the direction of the Sun Star, which was already close to the Western Sea, "We are in the Lingxiao Palace, the place where all immortals discuss matters."

"Now Your Majesty has only arranged some matters concerning the Heavenly Court, and a day is almost over. In the future, when reports of things from the primordial world are submitted, we cannot rely on Your Majesty's magical power to maintain the Heavenly Court's daytime forever."

As Yaochi finished speaking, the immortals all looked on with admiration. In the past, when they were in the Demon Court, they spent their days either cultivating in seclusion or preparing for battle, and they didn't care much about the passage of time.

Previously, preparations for the emperor and empress's ascension to the throne and the earthly marriage had kept the immortals incredibly busy. Although the night was still illuminated by countless stars and the Moon,—

They felt as if they had blinked, and the sun and moon appeared one after the other, as if light and darkness were constantly flashing before their eyes.

On the day of the Emperor and Empress's wedding, many guests came here. They only had a banquet, and ten days and nights passed. This was nothing for them, who were of the long-lived kind, but it was still somewhat inconvenient.

Haotian looked at Yaochi with a smile on his lips and nodded in deep agreement: "Your Majesty is right. After the court session, I will set about changing this matter, and from now on, the Heavenly Court will be separate from the Primordial World."

"Your Majesty and Your Majesty are wise." The gods bowed down.

"You shall all diligently perform your duties, each fulfilling your responsibilities, jointly protecting the Way of Heaven, and eternally pacifying the primordial wilderness."

Haotian nodded, listened to the reports from his ministers, and casually dealt with the urgent matters. In the blink of an eye, three days had passed before the two of them set off to return to the palace.

Longde Palace.

Seeing Haotian's dejected expression, Yaochi smiled gently and said, "Senior Brother, why do you look so tired?"

"Things are too complicated." Haotian smiled helplessly. "It's because we've just taken over the Heavenly Court, and there are bound to be many matters to attend to. Once Bai Ze and the others have arranged the positions for the immortals, you won't need to worry about it so much, brother."

"Senior brother, aren't you worried about handing the Demon-Summoning Banner over to Bai Ze?" Yao Chi frowned slightly, somewhat worried, and even returned the fragmented primordial spirits that had been used to subdue them.

Haotian shook his head: "Junior sister, you are overthinking it. Now that you and I hold the power of the Heavenly Court, they have no reason to betray us."

"Moreover, the Six Sages have already acknowledged the Heavenly Court's status, and Master has personally bestowed the title. The Heavenly Court is in charge of the prehistoric world. As long as one performs their divine duties to benefit heaven and earth, merits will be bestowed upon them. Although the amount is not much, it is better to receive them gradually over time."

As he spoke, Haotian's expression turned cold: "If they really dare to rebel, then I will see if they have found a sage to protect them and if they have made the decision to never leave the Daoist temple."

Yaochi nodded. Indeed, with their current power and cultivation, there was no need for them to worry so much.

"It seems that I need to change my identity as soon as possible." Yaochi smiled.

Haotian looked outside the palace, slapped his forehead, and auspicious clouds unfolded, Haotian Tower appeared, and the Heavenly Emperor Seal on the imperial desk also gently rose. The two spiritual treasures, one in the east and one in the west, enveloped the entire Heavenly Court.

"I reign supreme in the nine heavens, ruling over all the realms. I observe that the order of time in the world is different, and that the time in the mortal realm and the immortal realm is different."

The following heavenly rules are hereby established: one day in heaven is equivalent to one year on earth; one day in heaven is equivalent to half a year on earth; one night in heaven is equivalent to half a year on earth.

The sun, moon, and stars revolve in the heavens, their cycles long; while in the mortal realm, the four seasons change, and the years pass quickly.

This establishes the order of Yin and Yang, distinguishes the realm between immortals and mortals, and clarifies the distinction between gods and commoners.

From this day forward, this shall be an eternal law, to be obeyed by all the heavens and followed by all spirits, without exception.

As soon as the words were spoken, the stars that were about to appear in the sky above the Heavenly Court disappeared, the Sun Star shone down its light, and all the immortals bowed down towards the Dragon Virtue Palace.

Gods from all corners of the primordial world bowed in agreement, and those who had participated in the wedding banquet that day all showed their approval.

As Haotian Tower fell back down, Haotian's eyes were quite deep. Yaochi hesitated to speak, but Haotian shook his head, saying that there was no rush.

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, the Left and Right Heavenly Officials request an audience," a celestial attendant announced.

"Send it here," Haotian said softly, sitting on his throne.

Two figures entered, bowing respectfully. Except for the day of his ascension to the throne and today being the first grand court assembly where all the officials knelt in obeisance, ordinary court etiquette was sufficient at other times.

"Rise, my dear subjects." Haotian gestured, and the two bowed again before daring to sit down. He asked curiously, "Have you two finished your business?"

Bai Ze paused, a hint of helplessness in his eyes. "Your Majesty, we innate gods have no lifespan limit, but you don't need to push us so hard."

"This humble deity has come merely to report that the Jiuhua Palace, built for the Princess, is now complete. We request Your Majesty to bestow a name upon our palace."

Haotian and Yaochi exchanged a glance. He had long ago given Yaoji a title—Yunhua, the younger sister of the Heavenly Emperor, naturally making her the eldest princess.

The Jiuhua Palace was named by the Heavenly Emperor, and the Ministry of Works began construction on it. As for the interior furnishings, they depend on Yao Ji's own preferences. As for the palace name for Bai Ze and the others, the official titles conferred upon them today were something he had already decided on beforehand, and he hadn't told them about it.

It is only right that he bestow names upon them now, since these people will have to handle their own affairs in the future, and they can't stay alone in the Lingxiao Palace and his Longde Palace!

"Tushan was granted the Xiechen Palace, Bai Ze was granted the Jiheng Palace, Taibai was granted the Chengguang Palace, Kunpeng was granted the Sichen Palace, Shangyang and Jimeng entered the Xuanrong Palace and Tiange Palace, and Zhulong entered the Yuze Palace."

After a moment's thought, Haotian gave his instructions: "You can discuss the other palaces with Tushan."

"Thank you for bestowing this name upon us, Your Majesty." The two rose and bowed.

"Taibai, is something the matter?" Yaochi asked with a smile, recalling the hesitant expression he had shown back in the Lingxiao Palace.

Venus bowed and said, "Your Majesty, may I find someone to temporarily assume my divine duties? I only wish to serve Your Majesty."

Bai Ze immediately turned his head, his pupils fixed on his side, thinking, "You insidious bastard!"
