Honghuang Town Yuanzi.

Chapter 56 Heavenly Marriage (Combined Chapter)

"Wow, what a huge witch tribe!"

"Senior brother, is this the tribe of the Ancestral Witch Houtu?"

Looking at Qingfeng and Mingyue, whose faces were full of excitement, Yun Zhongzi couldn't help but feel a headache coming on.

To be precise, he had a headache and didn't know how to go back and explain to his master.

You can't exactly say that Qingfeng and Mingyue sneaked out on their own!

Upon hearing Qingfeng Mingyue mention Houtu Ancestral Witch, Yun Zhongzi's expression changed. He looked at Qingfeng Mingyue with a stern face and said, "Master said that our trip to the Demon Clan's Heavenly Court is only for paying respects, and we are not allowed to inquire about the affairs of the Witch and Demon Clans."

At this point, Yun Zhongzi's tone became somewhat stern: "Qingfeng and Mingyue, I know that you two have been given two innate swords by the Ancestral Witch Houtu, but you must not get too close to the Witch Clan, otherwise I would rather not go to the Heavenly Court of the Demon Clan than send you two back to the temple."

"Senior brother, you are absolutely right," the nine-headed beast interjected, shaking its head. "The witch and demon races are domineering, and we must never get involved in their conflict."

As it spoke, the nine-headed beast winked at Qingfeng and Mingyue, as if it were watching a good show.

"Senior brother, please don't misunderstand. We were just curious." Qingfeng and Mingyue were startled. If Yun Zhongzi really sent them back to the temple, they would not only have to face Zhen Yuanzi's punishment, but also miss the opportunity to see the grand gathering of the demon race's heavenly court.

At this moment, Yun Zhongzi recalled what he had seen and heard on his trip to the East Sea, and couldn't help but shake his head, saying, "If Master allows it in the future, the two of you can go to the East Sea for some training, and you will naturally understand the affairs of the Wu and Yao races at that time."

"To avoid causing trouble out of curiosity."

Since the emergence of the Wu clan, they have seized countless sacred mountains and blessed lands, leaving countless cultivators with nowhere to cultivate and forcing them to travel far and wide.

During his journey to the East Sea, Yun Zhongzi made many friends, including some whose sacred mountains and blessed lands had been forcibly occupied by the Wu and Yao clans. He witnessed the domineering nature of the Wu and Yao clans.

"Senior brother, are there any fun places in the East Sea?" Upon hearing Yun Zhongzi's words, Qingfeng and Mingyue's eyes lit up, eager to go to the East Sea immediately to gain experience and see the sights of the overseas cultivation world.

"Junior brothers, training is not for playing around." Upon hearing this, Yun Zhongzi's lips twitched, and he could only explain to Qingfeng and Mingyue.

Along the way, Yun Zhongzi told Qingfeng and Mingyue about the hardships and life-or-death struggles he encountered during his training.

During this time, the nine-headed beast would occasionally chime in, recounting its experience of being hunted by the witch clan.

On this day, the group arrived at the foot of Mount Buzhou, where they saw a towering pillar standing between heaven and earth. The mountain range stretched endlessly for countless miles, with peaks rising one after another, too numerous to count and seemingly without end.

At this moment, spiritual light was constantly flying in and out of Mount Buzhou, creating a prosperous scene, indicating that many guests had come for Emperor Jun's wedding.

It was truly a scene of auspicious clouds and spiritual light, a truly lively and extraordinary sight!

Not to mention that this was the first time Qingfeng and Mingyue had seen such a sight, even Yun Zhongzi and the Nine-Headed Beast were astonished.

"Is this Buzhou Mountain?"

"This is huge!" Qingfeng and Mingyue were shocked by Buzhou Mountain in front of them. It was even taller and more expansive than Wanshou Mountain.

"Master once said that Mount Buzhou was formed from the spine of the Great God Pangu. It is the highest mountain in the primordial world and possesses great fortune." Yun Zhongzi looked at Mount Buzhou in front of him and couldn't help but sigh inwardly. It was indeed the highest mountain in the primordial world and was truly extraordinary.

"Senior brother, this Buzhou Mountain is indeed majestic and magnificent, but why can't we see the Heavenly Court?" Qingfeng and Mingyue asked curiously as they looked at Buzhou Mountain.

Before Yun Zhongzi could speak, the nine-headed beast revealed a hint of longing and said, "I've heard that the Heavenly Court is located at the top of Buzhou Mountain, forming its own world with thirty-six heavens. It's vast in area, and not only is the innate spiritual energy abundant, but the essence of the stars in the heavens also falls down, far surpassing other blessed lands and grotto-heavens."

"What's so strange about it being a world of its own?" Qingfeng rolled his eyes at the nine-headed beast and said, "Our Longevity Mountain can also be a world of its own."

Just as the nine-headed beast was about to object, Yun Zhongzi spoke up, saying, "Alright, let's hurry up and see what the demon race's heavenly court looks like."

After speaking, Yun Zhongzi, accompanied by the nine-headed savage beast and Qingfeng Mingyue, arrived at the entrance of the South Heavenly Gate. A group of demons stepped forward, and the demon king at the head spoke up, "Esteemed Daoists, please show us your invitations!"

Emperor Jun's wedding was a grand affair, with many powerful cultivators and even some ordinary cultivators invited. The Lingxiao Palace naturally couldn't accommodate so many guests.

Only multiple banquets can be set up within the Thirty-Six Heavens, with seating arranged according to the visitors' cultivation level.

However, before Yun Zhongzi could take out the invitation, Qingfeng preemptively pulled out one and handed it over, saying, "Here, this is for you!"

Purple and gold invitation cards!

The Demon King's eyes narrowed. He reached out and took the invitation, glancing at it. He saw that it read "Wuzhuang Temple on Longevity Mountain," and was immediately startled. He asked, "May I ask if you Daoist masters are disciples of the True Man Zhenyuanzi...?"

The Demon Saint Bai Ze had already instructed his men to memorize the portraits of all the powerful beings, so that they would not be disrespectful.

It should be noted that among these powerful beings, there are many with extraordinary abilities, whom even Emperor Jun and Taiyi would address as fellow Daoists.

Zhen Yuanzi was one of them.

Upon seeing this, Yun Zhongzi first glared at Qingfeng, who had acted on his own initiative, then addressed the Demon King, saying, "It is indeed my master!"

The Demon King revealed an expression of understanding and respectfully returned the invitation, saying, "Please, fellow Daoists, proceed to the Lingxiao Palace."

Yun Zhongzi nodded, took the invitation, and said, "Thank you!"

Then, led by a palace maid, the group entered the Heavenly Court.

Along the way, the group admired the scenery and prosperity of the Heavenly Court.

Golden rays of light rolled like red clouds, and auspicious vapors sprayed purple mist. Maids and palace maids danced gracefully as they came and went, creating a lively and prosperous scene.

Before long, the group arrived inside the Lingxiao Palace. There were two rows of seats above, arranged exactly like the seats in the Zixia Palace. On the right were the Three Pure Ones, Jieyin, Zhunti, Nuwa, and others, while on the left were Fuxi, Kunpeng, Dongwanggong, and others.

Apart from Nuwa and Fuxi, the other great supernatural beings did not come; they only sent their disciples with a congratulatory gift.

Yun Zhongzi and his companions also presented a congratulatory gift, and then, guided by a palace maid, they sat down at a table.

As soon as they sat down, Qingfeng and Mingyue couldn't help but look around curiously at the people around them.

"You two shouldn't look around aimlessly, lest you be impolite," Yun Zhongzi whispered a reprimand.

Upon hearing this, Qingfeng and Mingyue reluctantly withdrew their gazes, each picked up a fruit, put it in their mouths and chewed. Immediately, their eyes lit up, and they said to Yun Zhongzi with delight, "Senior brother, you should try it quickly. This fruit is different from the ones in our temple. It contains a trace of rich essence of the stars in the heavens."

"This should be the Star Spirit Fruit that Master mentioned." Yun Zhongzi picked up a fruit, put it in his mouth and chewed it gently, praising, "What a fine spirit fruit."

"Haha, young friend, you have great insight." As laughter rang out, a Taoist priest walked over; he was none other than Fuxi, one of the great saints of the demon race.

"Eh!" Fuxi walked up to Yun Zhongzi, looked him up and down, and uttered a soft exclamation, "An immortal of virtue and fortune!"

"Fellow Daoist Zhen Yuanzi is truly blessed."

Upon hearing Fuxi's words, Yun Zhongzi and the others quickly stood up, bowed respectfully to Fuxi, and said, "Disciple Yun Zhongzi greets the Great Sage Fuxi!"

Yun Zhongzi had long heard of the five great saints of the demon race, so he recognized Fuxi's identity at a glance.

"No need for such formalities." Fuxi waved his sleeve and helped Yun Zhongzi and the others up, praising them as he said, "I never imagined that Fellow Daoist Zhen Yuanzi would have such an outstanding disciple."

As he spoke, Fuxi once again flicked his sleeve, sending out a beam of spiritual light that entered Yun Zhongzi's primordial spirit. He said, "My wealth is not as abundant as your master's, so I can only pass on a formation to you as a gift."

"Disciple thanks the Great Sage Fuxi!" Yun Zhongzi sensed the profound mystery of the array within his primordial spirit and quickly bowed in gratitude.

Fuxi chuckled, said a few simple words, and then turned and left.

After Fuxi left, Yun Zhongzi and the others sat down again, continuing to savor the various spiritual fruits and delicacies, and enjoying the songs and dances in the main hall. They were full of praise for the prosperous scene of the demon race's heavenly court.

After a while, as the auspicious hour arrived, a cloud of auspiciousness slowly descended from the South Heavenly Gate, upon which stood two female immortals. The female immortal in the lead wore a crown and a long golden palace dress, holding a laurel branch. She appeared aloof and noble, with a stunningly beautiful face. She was none other than Xihe from the Taiyin star.

The other female immortal is Nuwa, one of the great saints of the demon race. She is also dressed in a palace dress and has an unparalleled beauty.

Behind them followed a procession of palace maids and fairies, all dressed in gorgeous clothes, exquisitely made up, with delicate features, who occasionally scattered flower petals and played celestial music.

When Xihe and her group arrived at the South Heavenly Gate, Taiyi, along with the Ten Demon Saints and a host of demon gods and demon kings, had been waiting for a long time. They escorted Xihe and the others to the Lingxiao Palace, where they met up with Dijun and the others.

Nuwa and Taiyi immediately presided over the celestial wedding, proclaiming, "The Heavenly Emperor and Heavenly Empress are getting married; we must offer sacrifices to Heaven and Earth!"

Emperor Jun and Xihe held hands and stood in front of the Lingxiao Palace to begin their worship of Heaven and Earth.

The next moment, a thunderous roar suddenly resounded in the void, followed by a dazzling display of light, bursts of celestial music, and countless streams of meritorious and primordial energy.

I'm currently reading the error-free version! This is the first time I've published this novel.

This is a sign from Heaven, for this action has the merit of completing Heaven's Way, and Heaven has bestowed down the power of merit and virtue as a reward.

About 70% of the Xuanhuang Qi fell into the bodies of Di Jun and Xi He, the remaining 20% ​​fell into the bodies of Tai Yi and Nuwa, and the last 10% fell into the bodies of all the guests present.

The guests present were all taken aback. The wedding of Emperor Jun and Xi He was accompanied by a decree from Heaven. Wasn't this tantamount to saying that the rise of the demon race was the will of Heaven?

The guests who had been invited by Dijun and Taiyi all showed joy on their faces.

The will of Heaven decrees that the demon race will flourish.

This is also a good thing for them.

After the worship ceremony, the guests returned to the Lingxiao Palace with Emperor Jun and Xihe to continue enjoying the spiritual fruits and delicacies and watching the song and dance performances.

However, some guests looked worried, while others couldn't help but accept the offer from the Heavenly Court of the Demon Clan.

Several days passed in the blink of an eye, and Yun Zhongzi and his companions bid farewell to the Heavenly Court along with the other guests.

With the marriage of Di Jun and Xi He, the Heavenly Court of the Demon Clan not only gained a great supernatural being, but the two also jointly governed the Heavenly Court, one in charge of external affairs and the other in charge of internal affairs.

This made the Heavenly Court's fortune even more prosperous.

Furthermore, this celestial marriage undoubtedly deepened their relationship with Nuwa and Fuxi, gradually bringing the demon clan of Phoenix Mountain under the control of the Heavenly Court.

Furthermore, he recruited a group of cultivators during his wedding.

Among them, even the lowest level has the cultivation of Taiyi, and the most profound level has the cultivation of Daluo Jinxian. It seems that the number of Daluo Jinxian will soon reach 365.

On this day, in the Lingxiao Palace, Emperor Jun sat in the main seat, Taiyi sat in the secondary seat, and the Ten Demon Saints and a group of recruited demon gods gathered together to discuss how to strengthen the Heavenly Court.

"Your Majesty, I have a plan that can strengthen the Heavenly Court!"

A newly recruited demon god stepped forward and said, "It is said that the Nine-Tailed Celestial Fox clan in Qingqiu Mountain is one of the wisest people in the primordial world. Why not recruit them to serve in the Heavenly Court?"

"Although the Nine-Tailed Celestial Fox clan is not very strong, its members are mostly intelligent, so we can recruit them," said the Demon Saint Bai Ze in agreement.

Bai Ze had also heard of the Nine-Tailed Celestial Fox clan and knew that its members were mostly intelligent, unlike those barbarians who only knew how to kill.

If they were recruited to serve in the Heavenly Court, it would certainly enhance the strength of the Heavenly Court.

"Then please ask Bai Ze, the Demon Saint, to personally make the trip and recruit the Nine-Tailed Heavenly Fox Clan into the Heavenly Court." Di Jun's eyes lit up. Although the demon race has hundreds of millions of members, few of them are wise. They only know how to kill and fight, and are not good at politics.

Recruiting this nine-tailed celestial fox clan into the Heavenly Court is a good suggestion.

"Your Majesty, why don't you allow me to go with Bai Ze?" The Demon Saint Jiuying stepped forward and said, "If the Nine-Tailed Celestial Fox clan knows what's good for them, that's fine. But if they don't, we can attack Qingqiu Mountain and seize some of the Nine-Tailed Celestial Fox clan members to use."

"Your Majesty, you mustn't do this," Bai Ze quickly interjected. "We are here to recruit the Nine-Tailed Celestial Fox clan; how can we rob them?"

As he spoke, Bai Ze glared angrily at Jiuying and shouted, "Jiuying, don't forget, you are now one of the Ten Great Demon Saints of the Heavenly Court, not a Demon King from the Primordial World. How dare you arbitrarily seize things!"

The Nine-Headed Serpent is a ferocious beast, cruel by nature and fond of killing.

In the past, when the land was in the primordial chaos, Jiuying often robbed all living beings of their races. It was not until he was subdued by Dijun and Taiyi that he joined the demon race and became one of the ten great demon saints.

"Bai Ze, what you say makes a lot of sense. We must not start a bloodbath at this time. I hope Your Majesty will reconsider!" said the Demon Saint Ji Meng.

Upon hearing Ji Meng's words, several demon saints, including Fei Dan, Fei Lian, and Shang Yang, spoke up one after another.

After a heated debate among the demon saints, Di Jun concluded that Bai Ze was right; the purpose of this operation was to recruit the Nine-Tailed Heavenly Fox clan into the Heavenly Court, not to carry out a bloody massacre.

But Jiuying's words also make some sense. If the Nine-Tailed Celestial Fox Clan refuses, they can't just stand by and do nothing, or the Heavenly Court's authority will be lost.

"There's no need for you demon saints to argue," Di Jun waved his hand at the demon saints who were still arguing, and said, "Demon Saint Bai Ze is right. We want to recruit the Nine-Tailed Heavenly Fox clan, not to kill and plunder."

"However..." Di Jun changed the subject, saying, "If the Nine-Tailed Celestial Fox clan submits, they will be rewarded handsomely; if they do not submit, then we will attack Qingqiu Mountain."

At this point, Di Jun glanced at Jiu Ying and said, "But we must not commit too much killing; just suppress the Nine-Tailed Heavenly Fox clan."

"Your Majesty is wise!" Bai Ze exclaimed.

This action was an act of intimidation, not the killing and plundering by the Nine-Headed Serpent.

"In that case, I would like to ask the two demon saints, Bai Ze and Jiu Ying, to come along as well," Di Jun said.

"Bai Ze and Jiu Ying obey the decree!" Bai Ze and Jiu Ying bowed respectfully.

Bai Ze immediately ordered people to prepare a generous gift to recruit the Nine-Tailed Celestial Fox clan, while Jiu Ying ordered a group of demon soldiers and generals to assemble, ready to coerce the Nine-Tailed Celestial Fox clan at any time.
