Emperor Haotian
Chapter 1615 Emperor Haotian
Bai Yuqiong came to see Meng Yungui, but saw Meng Yungui was arranging flowers. He held a flower in his hand but was unable to put it in.
Flower arrangement tests one's artistic sense and sense of spatial hierarchy. The flowers arranged have spatial hierarchy, shadows, and white space, showing visual impact. No matter from which angle you look at it, it is a fine work of art.
As a master of numerology, flower arrangement is actually not difficult, but Meng Yungui was stunned.
Bai Yuqiong walked forward and asked with a smile, "What are you thinking about, Brother Meng?"
Meng Yungui said softly: "I have a dream..."
"What?" Bai Yuqiong was puzzled.
Meng Yungui regained consciousness, cleared Yu Chenzi's words from his mind, and said with a smile: "It was just a rant. Master Bai Tian, I have already done what you asked me to do, you can rest assured. But this will not happen again, and there must not be a second time."
Bai Yuqiong said, "Of course there won't be a second time. The world is about to be unified, and it will be difficult for Heavenly Masters like us to have a place to use our skills in the future. Lord Haotian ascended the throne and became the emperor, with all power in his hands. No one can compete with him, and no force can resist the Heavenly Court. We Heavenly Masters will soon retire."
"I hope so."
Meng Yungui said: "With our merits, you and I can at least be assigned a world. In our world, the human race can live well."
Bai Yuqiong's eyes flickered, and she lowered her voice and asked, "Have you been to Nantian?"
Meng Yungui glanced at her and said nothing.
Bai Yuqiong said: "The people of Nantian can no longer be called human beings, but animals. It makes me shudder. The last time I went to Nantian, I almost escaped..."
Meng Yungui was silent.
Bai Yuqiong said: "The actions of Fire Lord are a bit too shameless. He openly claims to protect the human race, but in fact he treats the human race as livestock, and he is the shepherd dog that feeds the livestock for the demigods. After we become successful, will the heavens under our command become the Southern Heaven..."
"Won't!"
After Meng Yungui said this, he realized that his tone was too harsh, so he slowed down his tone and said, "We are different from Huo Tianzun. Huo Tianzun seeks power, while we seek a place to settle down. In order to seek power, he must please the demigods, win over the demigods, lower his posture, and beg for mercy. That is why Huo Tianzun always rushed to the front when dealing with Kaihuang and Mu Tianzun. We rely on our own abilities to gain credit and use our credit to exchange for a place to settle down."
Bai Yuqiong hesitated for a moment and said, "What if the world is at peace and the Heavenly Court orders our territory to become the Southern Sky?"
The corners of Meng Yungui's eyes twitched.
After a while, Meng Yungui said: "Don't think about these miscellaneous things, you and I just need to do our duty. Huo Tianzun has a way of dying, and he won't live much longer. I foresaw his death a long time ago and told Xu Tianzun that if Xu Tianzun married him, he would be implicated. Now, the time has come for it to come true." (See Chapter 1234, The Great Emperor is Unparalleled)
Bai Yuqiong thought for a moment and said, "Then will we become the second Fire Lord? If Hao Tianzun doesn't trust the Fire Lord of the human race, can he trust the White Master and the Meng Tianshi of the human race?"
"shut up!"
Meng Yungui gave a low shout, looked around, and said in a serious tone: "Junior Sister Bai, you and I were once from the same sect. I am reminding you now, otherwise you will also die! Your words and actions are very dangerous now. Today is different from the past. If you say anything wrong, it may bring you a fatal disaster! In the past, there were ten Tianzun, so it was nothing to say something wrong, but now there is only Hao Tianzun, even if Tianzun says something wrong, he will die!"
Bai Yuqiong sighed, bowed, turned and left.
Meng Yungui pinched the flower branches and continued to arrange the flowers, muttering: "I have a dream...Damn it!"
Yu Chenzi felt relieved and slowly returned to his residence. The residence arranged for him by the Prime Minister was full of spies. His every move would be monitored clearly and there was no secret at all.
He didn't take it seriously and stayed there calmly, eating and sleeping as usual, without any pressure at all.
The Heavenly Court was busy preparing for the coronation ceremony of Lord Haotian.
On the day of the coronation ceremony, it was extremely lively, sacred and solemn. The rulers of all the heavens and worlds came one after another, various divine displays of various visions, and in the sky there were goddesses with fluttering dresses, scattering divine flowers.
The ground was covered with flower petals. The various sacred beings who came to participate in the ceremony did not step on the ground at all, but walked on the thick petals.
The heavenly realm was decorated with lights and lanterns were hung in every household. The mythical beasts guarding the gates were also in high spirits. Dragons coiled on pillars, phoenixes flew onto branches, and unicorns sat in front of the doors, looking majestic and awe-inspiring.
The grand ceremony was held, and Taichu Tiandi wore an imperial robe and a crown, accepting worship from his ministers.
Lord Haotian also knelt below and kowtowed to Taichu.
The announcer sang the ceremony, and after the ceremony, Taichu Tiandi burned incense and prayed, and said a speech about abdicating and giving way to the virtuous. He said that he was unworthy of the position because of his lack of virtue, and praised the talents and virtues of Haotianzun, so he abdicated and invited Haotiandi to ascend the throne.
Taichu Tiandi took off his crown and robe and placed them on the jade plate.
Lord Haotian hastily refused, feeling extremely terrified.
Taichu Tiandi was displeased and resolutely abdicated, making him the emperor.
Lord Haotian knelt on the ground, kowtowed repeatedly, and begged his father to revoke his order.
Taichu once again asked Haotianzun to ascend the throne, but Haotianzun fell to the ground and cried loudly, and kept refusing.
The Emperor Taichu Tian was furious and shouted, "Hao'er, do you want to see your father die on this throne before you ascend the throne?" After saying that, he drew out the Emperor's sword and was about to commit suicide.
All the ministers stepped forward in a hurry to persuade Taichu Tiandi to stop.
The Great Emperor of Heaven could not struggle, so he threw down his sword and shouted, "What's the point of you trying to persuade me? Go persuade the new emperor to ascend the throne!"
The ministers went to persuade Lord Haotian again, and Lord Haotian fell to the ground and cried. After everyone persuaded him again, he stopped crying. He was helped up by the ministers and sent to the throne of Lingxiao Palace.
Taichu personally put the crown of God on him and dressed him in the robe of God, and then stepped back step by step.
All the ministers knelt and shouted "Emperor Haotian".
Taichu also knelt down and shouted "Emperor Haotian".
Lord Haotian sighed, "I am not very talented and virtuous, and I rely on your support to ensure peace and prosperity in my country, the world, and the prosperity of the heavens. I hope you will support me in the long days ahead. My dear ministers, please stand up and take your seats."
Everyone stood up and took their seats. The goddess waitresses came in one after another and served all kinds of delicacies like flowing water.
At this moment, a god suddenly came to report: "Someone is kneeling outside the South Heaven Gate to ask for forgiveness!"
There was an uproar in the court, with officials whispering to each other and discussing the matter.
"Could it be that Lord Mu Tianzun has really come to descend upon me?"
Emperor Haotian's heart was slightly moved, and he said with a smile: "Bring up the person who pleads guilty."
Not long after, there really was a man with bare chest, hands tied tightly behind his back, and some brambles stuck in his back, who was brought into the court.
Emperor Haotian stared at him, somewhat disappointed. All the ministers looked at that man, and each of them was surprised and delighted.
"Your Majesty has ascended the throne, and the Azure Dragon of the East Emperor has heard the news and is coming to surrender. This is a very auspicious sign!"
Everyone congratulated him. The Eastern Emperor Qinglong knelt on the ground and said loudly: "Your Majesty, you obey the will of heaven and the people. I am convinced. I know that I cannot resist the power of heaven, so I come to surrender. I beg your majesty to punish me!"
Emperor Haotian stood up, walked to the side of Emperor Qinglong of the East, pulled out a twig from his back, whipped him a few times, then threw the twig away and stretched out his hands to help him up.
"Someone, prepare the robe and put it on Qinglong."
Emperor Haotian smiled and said, "Don't blame me, Qinglong. The reason I have to whip you is because you were my enemy in the past and declared yourself emperor, so I want to whip you. However, you know how to repent, and I appreciate your talent, so I am willing to accept you and let bygones be bygones."
The Eastern Emperor Qinglong choked up and said, "Your Majesty, you have shown me your kindness and spared my life. Even if I die, I will never be able to repay you!"
Emperor Haotian laughed loudly, put a robe on him, and said, "My dear minister, please take a seat."
The Eastern Emperor Qinglong sat down.
Taichu frowned slightly, the surrender of Dongdi Qinglong was beyond his expectation. Dongtian Qingdi was his man. Once Haotianzun unified the world, he would sooner or later launch an attack on Dongjitian. By then, both Dongtian and Dongjitian would be Taichu's territories.
And now that the Eastern Emperor Qinglong has surrendered, this territory will directly be under the name of Emperor Haotian!
"I can only endure it." Taichu said silently in his heart.
Suddenly, another priest sang loudly: "The traitor Mu Tianzun's messenger Yu Chenzi has come to the temple to present a letter of surrender and pray for the grace of God to show mercy!"
As soon as these words were spoken, there was another uproar.
Emperor Haotian smiled, feeling very happy. He glanced at Taichu and thought, "On the first day of my accession to the throne, my achievements surpassed yours in hundreds of thousands of years! Father God, you cannot defeat me. I have already secured the throne."
Yu Chenzi went up to the palace, bowed his head, held up the surrender letter with both hands, walked slowly into the palace, knelt down, and said loudly: "Your Majesty, your humble servant Qin Mu, knows that your Majesty is a master of martial arts and has great power. I cannot defeat you, so I beg for surrender!"
Emperor Haotian laughed loudly, stood up and said: "Although Lord Mu Tian and I are enemies, I also admire his bravery. It is better for me to have such a great general than to have the whole world! Present the letter of surrender!"
The prime minister hurriedly brought the surrender letter, and Emperor Haotian said in high spirits: "Read it!"
The Prime Minister hesitated for a moment, then unfolded the letter of surrender and read it. When the ministers in the court heard Qin Mu's letter of surrender, they burst into laughter and were very happy.
The wealth of Yankang listed by Qin Mu in the surrender list made them even more excited, and their eyes emitted a faint light.
Even the Heavenly Lord couldn't help but be tempted by Yankang's wealth, and each of them calculated how much of the wealth they could get.
When the Prime Minister read the words "I have fallen asleep" written by Qin Mu, an idea suddenly occurred to him and he skipped this sentence.
Emperor Haotian smiled slightly and thought to himself, "He is quite sensible and a promising talent. It's just a pity that Langxu..."
After reading the surrender letter, the prime minister presented it to Emperor Haotian.
Emperor Haotian put the surrender letter aside and said calmly: "Lord Mu Tian has great literary talent. I think the surrender letter should be printed in millions of copies and sent to all the heavens so that you rough guys can learn from his wisdom!" The court was full of praises.
Emperor Haotian was overjoyed and held a banquet to reward his ministers. After the ceremony, the ministers dispersed, and only Huo Tianzun, Xu Tianzun, Zushenwang, Taichu, Taiji, Yin Tianzi and others stayed.
Emperor Haotian said: "Mu Tianzun surrendered his entire country. This is a serious matter, so I will leave you fellow Taoists here..."
The Ancestral God King said quickly: "Your Majesty is too polite. Now we are your subjects. How can you still call us fellow Taoists? It is too much for us! If Your Majesty thinks we are still useful and calls us beloved ministers, it will be a blessing from heaven!"
Emperor Haotian pretended to say, "When the Supreme Emperor was in power, he even called the God of Heaven and the Lord of Earth "fellow Taoist..."
Emperor Yin stepped out and said loudly: "This is a different time! Every emperor has his own ministers. The old rules cannot be applied in today's court!"
Emperor Haotian said reluctantly: "Then I have no choice but to follow suit. My dear ministers, how do you think we should divide it, Yankang?"
Huo Tianzun bowed and said, "Your Majesty, Yankang is a human race, and should be under the jurisdiction of my Nantian! I am the Tianzun of the human race. In a few years, I can train the rebellious thieves in Yankang so that they will never rebel again!"
Hao Tianzun said calmly: "Yankang is rich, Lord Huo, do you have such a big appetite and swallow it all in one gulp?"
Huo Tianzun said: "Your Majesty, the human race will be managed by me. We had an agreement in the past..."
Emperor Yin smiled and said, "Venerable Fire, this is a different time now. How can the agreement made in the past apply to the present? The whole world belongs to the emperor, and all the people are his subjects. The entire universe belongs to your majesty, so how can there be yours and mine?"
All the Heavenly Lords frowned together.
Huo Tianzun sneered and said, "Yin Tianzi, do you have the right to speak here? Get out!"
Emperor Haotian smiled and said, "I forgot to tell Lord Huo that Yin Tianzi is no longer the Dark Emperor. I plan to confer him the title of Yin Tianzun."
Huo Tianzun was so angry that he laughed: "In the past, the Tianzun was enfeoffed by virtue, and later by force. Now, is the Tianzun enfeoffed by flattery? I am ashamed to be associated with him!"
Hao Tianzun's expression changed slightly, and he laughed, "Lord Huo is still hot-tempered, and hasn't changed at all. Hahaha, let's put aside the matter of Emperor Yin conferring the title of Lord Tianzun for now. Lord Huo has made great contributions to my being able to sit on this seat, and I toast you a glass!"
Huo Tianzun hurriedly stood up and raised his glass, saying ashamedly: "Your Majesty, my temper has not changed. I am sorry to make you laugh."
Lord Haotian drank it all in one gulp, put down the wine glass, and said with a smile: "How can I not know the temper of Lord Huo? Although you and I are not brothers, we are better than brothers! Half of my kingdom belongs to you!"
