Chapter 251 Bai Ze Intends to Recruit the Three Pure Ones and the Ancestral Witches
Looking at Ao Qi, Jin Ning, and the three unlike creatures in front of him.
After pondering for a moment, Di Jun asked curiously, "The three of you, are the ancestors you speak of the three seniors, Ancestral Dragon, Primordial Phoenix, and First Qilin?!"
Upon hearing this, Ao Qi, Jin Ning, and the Four-Faced Beast nodded and said with a smile, "Your Majesty, that's right!"
"Over the years, some of the karmic debts our clan owed have dissipated, which is why a few members of our three clans can occasionally venture into the primordial world. It just so happens that the Heavenly Emperor is hosting a banquet, and our ancestor has arranged for us to come and offer our congratulations!"
Upon hearing this, everyone was filled with a myriad of emotions, and could only say that the Heavenly Court was indeed a force created in accordance with the will of the Daoist Master.
Even the three ancestors, Zulong, Yuanfeng, and Shiqilin, were eager to befriend him.
It should be noted that after the Great Tribulation of Dao and Demon, the three ancestors, Zulong, Yuanfeng, and Shiqilin, were assigned by Daozun to the three extreme regions of the Primordial World, each responsible for a corner of the Primordial World.
Aside from some momentous events, he could be said to be detached from worldly affairs.
Now, however, they have specially arranged for someone from their clan to visit the Heavenly Court.
This can be described as giving the Heavenly Court a great deal of face.
Upon hearing what Ao Qi and the other two said, Di Jun and the others from the Heavenly Court smiled, unable to hide their joy.
Emperor Jun, seated on the throne of the Heavenly Emperor, laughed loudly: "You three fellow Daoists are too kind. I appreciate the kindness of the three seniors, Zulong, Yuanfeng, and Shiqilin. I will definitely pay a visit to express my gratitude in the future. Now, please take your seats, and let us begin the banquet!"
"Thank you, Heavenly Emperor!" Ao Qi, Jin Ning, and the Four-Faced Beast said with smiles.
After Ao Qi and the other two were seated.
Di Jun raised the spirit wine in his hand and slowly addressed the crowd: "Everyone, this banquet is the first since the establishment of our Heavenly Court. Di Jun would like to thank all of you fellow Daoists for taking the time and effort to attend!"
"Hahaha, Your Majesty, you are too kind. It is our honor to participate in this grand feast!"
"Yes, Your Majesty, we are overjoyed to be here and to meet so many fellow Daoists!"
However, Nuwa frowned slightly, still pondering the purpose of the Dragon, Phoenix, and Qilin clans' arrival.
The more she thought about it, the more the suspicion lingered in her heart.
She always felt that the Dragon, Phoenix, and Qilin clans were just there to watch the show!
After all, given the strength of the three predecessors, Zulong, Yuanfeng, and Shiqilin, there was no reason why they couldn't sense the current crisis facing the Heavenly Court.
Even so, they still sent someone over specifically.
You say this was specially to congratulate and celebrate? Nuwa would never believe it.
At this moment, Ao Qi, Jin Ning, and the Four-Faced Beast also seemed to notice the change in Nuwa's expression.
After all, Nuwa was the only Primordial Golden Immortal present, so they couldn't possibly ignore her.
But they didn't say much, they just smiled and raised the spirit wine in their hands to Nuwa.
it is more than words.
Seeing this, Nuwa immediately realized that she had not been wrong.
The dragon, phoenix, and qilin clans really did come to watch the show.
I just don't know what will happen in the Heavenly Court.
Should I stay here and watch the show too?
After all, the Dragon, Phoenix, and Qilin clans only sent one peak Golden Immortal.
With my current strength as a Primordial Golden Immortal, I should be able to protect myself, right?
Even if I encounter danger, don't I still have my master?!
Thinking of this, Nuwa's tense heart relaxed.
It feels like I have a master; you know what, it's just great!
As time went by, the atmosphere on the field became more and more lively.
Bai Ze even walked around the crowd with a wine glass in his hand.
Thanks to Bai Ze's persuasive words, he actually managed to win over quite a few powerful figures willing to join the demon race.
This made Di Jun, who was watching this, extremely happy.
But he knew that among those present, only three people were truly crucial.
Those were the Twelve Ancestral Witches, the Three Pure Ones, and Nuwa, who had broken through to the Hunyuan Golden Immortal realm.
These sixteen people are the ones that Emperor Jun values most.
After all, the Twelve Ancestral Witches and the Three Pure Ones were all descendants of Pangu and the nephews of the Daoist Master, so their status was undoubtedly noble.
Their strength is absolutely overwhelming.
Each and every one of them was in no way inferior to him and Taiyi.
Nuwa was the only Primordial Golden Immortal present, and she was born and entered the world only after the Great Calamity of the Primordial Era.
It goes without saying that he must be carrying a great deal of fortune and merit.
These three groups, totaling sixteen people, would be a tremendous blessing for both the Heavenly Court and the demon race, no matter which one they recruited.
However, Di Jun also knew that it would be difficult for him to recruit the Three Pure Ones and the Twelve Ancestral Witches into his demon race.
After all, as the nephews of the Daoist Master, the Three Pure Ones and the Twelve Ancestral Witches are all of extremely high status.
He was even comparable to him, the ruler of the Heavenly Court and the emperor of the demon race.
On the contrary, Nuwa is still somewhat possible.
However, it doesn't matter if the Three Pure Ones and the Twelve Ancestral Witches are unwilling to join their demon race.
There's still a Heavenly Court, isn't there?
Let them hold sinecure positions in Heaven.
Isn't that the same?
Then, Di Jun subtly gave Bai Ze, who was mingling among the Great Luo Golden Immortals like a social butterfly, a look that prompted him to recruit the sixteen people as originally planned.
After Bai Ze sensed the instruction in Di Jun's eyes.
With a smile on his face, he walked out of the crowd, then, carrying the spirit wine, approached the three Pure Ones.
He first bowed slightly to the three Pure Ones, then said softly, "Bai Ze thanks the three fellow Daoists for gracing our Heavenly Court banquet. Their presence is truly an honor for our Heavenly Court."
At this point, Bai Ze paused, then continued, "His Majesty noticed that the three of you had been sitting idly here, and couldn't help but feel a little worried, fearing that you might be neglecting yourselves. Therefore, he sent Bai Ze to specifically inquire whether the three of you felt there was anything lacking in this banquet hosted by our Heavenly Court. If so, I will immediately report to His Majesty."
"Given His Majesty's high regard for these three fellow Daoists, he will surely order changes to be made immediately!"
Faced with Bai Ze's humble and polite words, Taishang stroked his long beard and responded with a kind smile:
"Fellow Daoist Bai Ze is too kind. There's no need to trouble Fellow Daoist Di Jun. It's not that we feel there's anything lacking in this banquet; it's just that the three of us have always preferred quiet. Being able to sit quietly and listen to others discuss the Dao is already enough to satisfy us!"
Upon hearing Taishang's words, Bai Ze pretended to breathe a sigh of relief, "I see. In that case, I, Bai Ze, have been presumptuous and have disturbed the refined enjoyment of the three fellow Daoists!"
Taishang smiled and shook his head, "Fellow Daoist Bai Ze is joking. How could your actions be considered abrupt? On the contrary, the Three Pure Ones should thank you for your concern."
