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

"Does Your Majesty mean to let Western religions develop freely?" Yuanshi frowned.

Haotian chuckled: "Yes, let him prosper. I will have my own way of forcing them to abdicate when the time comes."

"What the two senior brothers should do is take good care of their disciples and prevent them from being won over by those two."

"As long as the one who sits in a high position in the Western Sect is a disciple of my Xuanmen, the one who will enjoy the good fortune will always be a disciple of the three religions. As the disciples under my sect improve their cultivation, no matter what schemes they may have, the Western Sect's plans will ultimately come to nothing."

Laozi and Yuanshi exchanged a glance: "Your Majesty's actions do not seem like an immediate thought, but rather something you anticipated."

"You are all aware of the grudges and conflicts that arose when you became disciples of Zixiao Palace," Haotian said calmly.

Yaochi lowered her eyelids. Back then, her senior brother had truly been intent on killing her, but due to the will of Heaven, he ultimately failed to do so.

Haotian sighed inwardly. He didn't know that he would be able to awaken the Earth and Human Paths later on; otherwise, his master would definitely have helped him!

Yuanshi paused for a moment. It was all a mess. His master had done it to repay karmic debts, but these two had only played a decorative role in the restoration of the Western Earth Veins, at least for now.

They did their best, but didn't achieve much.

Now they're even interfering in the affairs of the Chan and Jie sects...

"We will heed His Majesty's instructions." Yuanshi paused for a moment. "My third brother said that jade can be identified during the great calamity, but whether that jade truly belongs to the Jie Sect... will be revealed after the great waves have washed away the sand."

Laozi added, "Your Majesty has your own plans, and we will not ask further. However, I believe that the four of us are personally taught by our master, and our relationship is closer than that of the other two."

"Your Majesty is the Heavenly Emperor, but also a disciple of the Xuanmen sect. Even your master needs fortune."

Haotian snorted lightly: "I naturally know, there's no need for my senior brother to remind me."

Yaochi looked displeased: "Senior Brother, we know our identities. There's no need for you to repeat yourself. Master is still here!"

A hint of embarrassment flashed in Laozi's eyes. "I am the senior disciple of the Xuanmen sect, and I must be responsible for the sect."

After all, you two are the Heavenly Emperor and Empress, so you only need to consider your master. Although we disciples are your junior disciples, so are the Western Sect. All four sects belong to the Xuanmen (mysterious sect). The prosperity of any one of them will not have much impact on the Heavenly Court. At most, it will just be a matter of personal grudges.

"Let's not talk about that anymore." Haotian shook his head. "The primordial world is currently in turmoil. Have you two senior brothers decided which country you will assist to replace the Shang Dynasty?"

"Among the Three Sovereigns, only the Emperor Ren has the most descendants. He was taught by my Chan Sect, and the new dynasty should naturally be descended from him. The ancestor of the eight hundred vassal states of the Great Shang Dynasty, the Marquis of Xibo, was Houji, the son of Jiang Yuan, the primary consort of Emperor Ku. I intend to support him," said the Primordial Lord with an air of composure.

"Senior brother has really gone to great lengths," Yaochi added, having chosen this one from among the eight hundred lords.

Ji Qi was the son of Emperor Ku, as was Qi, the ancestor of the Shang Dynasty. Emperor Ku was taught by Kong Xuan, who was a former member of the Phoenix Clan. Xuan Tian and Xuanyuan were born of the same mother, so he was naturally happy to see Xuanyuan's descendants succeed.

"I have no choice but to win over allies and take advantage of their influence." Yuan Shi's expression remained unchanged. Since he was going to change dynasties, he naturally had to weaken the power of the previous dynasty.

Haotian drank a cup of tea, and a stream of light flew out: "Since we are going to transfer the fortune, the Phoenix Clan must also begin to take action. Kong Xuan and Jinpeng are at a critical moment right now, and it would be bad if they suffered a backlash."

Laozi Yuanshi raised his head in disbelief: "Your Majesty means that those two have made another breakthrough?"

Yaochi smiled without speaking, while Haotian smiled smugly: "Indeed!"

The Black Bird is the totem of the Great Shang Dynasty. The Phoenix Clan's fortune was gathered on the two of them, so it would be strange if they didn't break through!

Yuan Shi smiled bitterly, "Your Majesty, they used the Shang Dynasty's fortune to break through; they will surely have to repay this karmic debt in the future!"

"Anyway, I won't make a move." Haotian snorted lightly. As a master, how could he possibly deal with his own disciple personally?

"If you make a move, be careful not to hurt them!" Haotian warned.

Laozi Yuanshi was speechless. You've said everything.

"Your Majesty, changing dynasties is not just a matter for my Chan Sect," Yuanshi said irritably. You also want to change the Human Emperor to the Son of Heaven, are you just going to stand by and do nothing?

Kong Xuan and Jin Peng were already quasi-saints with great supernatural powers. Which of the disciples of the three religions could be their match?

"Ahem—" Yaochi reminded him, "Senior brother, have you forgotten that Kong Xuan and Zhunti also have a karmic connection?"

Haotian paused for a moment. Yes, he had helped Kong Xuan refine that branch of the Seven Treasures Tree.

"Zhunti is known for his underhanded tactics, so Junior Brother should remind Nephew Kong Xuan to be extra careful." Yuanshi thought to himself, someone could help resolve this, but what about that person's character...?

Haotian rubbed his temples. Although he didn't take Zhunti seriously, he was still a saint.

"I will find a way to handle this matter."

Perhaps the opportunity to reclaim that item lies in this battle!

"This time, the Chan Sect is in charge. When the time is right, I will send the Investiture of the Gods to the Chan Sect, and those who are to be conferred the title of gods will also join the Chan Sect." Haotian stroked his teacup. "The Shang Dynasty's fortune has not yet run out, but it can only last for a thousand years at most."

"Thank you, Your Majesty." Yuanshi bowed deeply. If he could control the Investiture of the Gods, it would give the Chan Sect an advantage.

"However, I need to borrow Yun Zhongzi from my senior brother."

"Yun Zhongzi, he's just a Great Luo Golden Immortal, what can he do?" Yuanshi asked, somewhat puzzled, but his gaze suddenly paused. "Refine artifacts?"

"Indeed, heavenly soldiers can only descend to earth on auspicious clouds, which is fine within the primordial world, but when demon gods attack, I must provide the Heavenly Court with more protection. I cannot let them lose their lives in vain."

"Indeed, Yun Zhongzi is the most skilled weapon refiner in our Chan Sect, but Duobao has also received my true teachings."

"Senior brother has truly devoted himself to the Jie Sect." Haotian raised an eyebrow and chuckled.

"He has also been taught by me, and he is the chief disciple of the Jie Sect. I cannot but take great care of him." Yuanshi said calmly.

Haotian clicked his tongue in amazement. Everyone said that Senior Brother Yuanshi was arrogant and looked down on those who wore fur and horns, but he couldn't help but favor those who understood etiquette, could distinguish right from wrong, and were truly in his eyes.

"Alright, let him come too." Haotian looked at the two with a half-smile. "He can help in the Heavenly Court for a maximum of a thousand years. Don't worry, it won't interfere with your two sects' fight."

Yuanshi remained silent, for that was not what I meant.

Haotian finished his tea and began to urge them to leave: "I've said everything I needed to say, senior brothers, you can go back now."

Laozi Yuanshi rose and said, "Thank you very much, junior brother. We shall take our leave now."

As space shifted and the independent space disappeared, the numerous fairy maidens remained completely unaware. Watching the two figures depart, Yaochi sighed, "These two senior brothers have been incredibly kind and righteous to Senior Brother Tongtian. I never expected they would even be willing to take out the Taiji Diagram."

Haotian shook his head: "Junior sister, your understanding is still too shallow. This item was formed from the Pangu Axe and was bestowed by our master. Even if I were to take it, I would only bestow it upon him in the future. Do you think senior brother can't see this?"

Yaochi's expression froze for a moment, then she looked over with a half-smile: "For Xuantian? Senior Brother has certainly gone to great lengths. I wonder what you've prepared for my Longji?"
