Chapter 942: Chapter 410: Who Delights in the Celestial Palace

"Lord of the Heavenly Court!"

"Great Saint of the Human Race!"

"Sect of the World!"

The shouts were like a mountain roaring and a sea raging. The battle had ended, Hongbo Fairy was dead, Evergreen Immortal Venerable was extinct, and even Yunluo Immortal Venerable had been shocked into retreat. Only the exhilarating emotions remained, invigorating even the Daluo Golden Immortals, who sincerely cheered.

In the land of demise, Shangguan Xiaoxiao felt the strands of mysterious power, assisting in the condensation and stabilization of her place of demise, preventing it from completely collapsing. She instinctively looked around, but saw nothing.

She was certain that someone had helped her just now.

Otherwise, relying on herself, she wouldn’t have been able to stabilize the explosion and disappearance of the land of demise, and she was destined to perish along with it.

Now, this gentle and soft power helped preserve some shadows of the land of demise, preventing complete collapse, which was the foundation for her standing in the mortal world.

After this battle, she was severely injured, and her cultivation might fall from Daluo Golden Immortal. It would be difficult to recover fully in this lifetime, but she wouldn’t die.

"Who..."

Countless questions arose in her heart.

Her Daluo World was refined from the land of demise, and in this world, aside from herself, only Immortal Venerable level figures could traverse it by relying on their profound cultivation. How did someone enter?

Furthermore, why would the person who entered choose to help her?

She pondered repeatedly.

Was it truly a Longevity Seeker?

She knew that though she was once possessed by Longevity Seeker’s wife, Yuan Ziyi, and had communicated with her, but as for the Longevity Seeker... she had never met him.

Perhaps he had a feeling of gratitude for her assisting in Yuan Ziyi’s resurrection, hence remembering the favor?

Or maybe, the Longevity Seeker harbored hatred for Evergreen Immortal Venerable and Yunluo Immortal Venerable, thus leaving a countermeasure to eliminate both of them?

She didn’t know.

All these were possible, yet it was impossible to validate them.

In sum, she survived.

"To find life in a desperate situation... Li Gou, my luck is indeed better than yours."

She sighed softly.

...

"Both the Heavenly Court’s Lord and Great Saint of the Human Race are injured, the conferment ceremony should be simple. Moreover, as the Heavenly Court undergoes reforms, with mysterious entities looming, an urgent need exists for consolidation, thus I, An Li, propose immediate military preparation!"

As emotions surged among the people, An Li stepped forward, speaking, "Celestial Monarch Zuo Feng, Celestial Monarch Shi Teng, Great Immortal Ye Tiancan, should immediately lead their forces to defend against mysterious invasions. Immortals Yunxi, Ye Cauldron, and Xiang Yuntian are heavily injured and should retreat to heal."

Being cautious in times of peace was a habit An Li cultivated over years. Hearing him, the excited masses calmed down.

"Truly the Daoist Sect Leader!"

"Though the Daoist Sect Leader lacks the stance of Daluo Golden Immortal, he possesses an astounding ability to strategize the world."

Many people sighed, and none dared to belittle An Li anymore.

This is a super strategist using Daluos as chess pieces, daring to plot against two Immortal Venerables and successfully killing one!

In the minds of the masses, his threat level likely surpassed that of a Daluo Golden Immortal.

"Follow Sect Leader An’s words and everyone proceed swiftly."

Purple Fairy immediately ordered!

"Furthermore, all the Longevity White Mist here will be managed by the Great Saint of the Human Race!"

An Li continued, "Shangguan Great Saint holds an unrivaled trump card, able to intimidate Yunluo Immortal Venerable. Only she can guard these Longevity White Mists; otherwise, anyone else obtaining them invites disaster upon themselves!"

"One day Shangguan Great Saint guards these mists, the world enjoys one day of peace. If these things fall into Yunluo Immortal Venerable’s hands, everyone would perish!"

His voice was solemn and serious, his gaze sweeping across the heroes. Despite merely having the cultivation of Taiyi Golden Immortal, many Immortal Dao experts with fervent gazes dared not meet his eyes.

After Evergreen Immortal Venerable’s death, all his mists scattered here, in astonishing amounts, equivalent to a quarter of all Longevity White Mist, a tremendous temptation for the world.

Yet at this moment, no one dared to question An Li’s words. Even those with greed dared not move.

Firstly, An Li’s words were true, Yunluo Immortal Venerable was gathering the world’s mists, whoever obtained them would attract his attention, making these items truly hot potatoes.

Secondly, for the people of the world, letting Shangguan Xiaoxiao hold them was indeed the best choice; her cultivation had fallen from Daluo, far from achieving longevity, while Yunluo Immortal Venerable feared her greatly...

The most crucial reason lied elsewhere; with the Heavenly Court changing masters, Shangguan Xiaoxiao already achieved tremendous merit, now titled Great Saint of the Human Race, with immense prestige and mutual reverence with the Dao Sect as the mainstay, Biluo Palace, Treasure Cauldron Palace, and others as support, even ordinary beings, let alone Daluo Golden Immortals, attempting to seize the Longevity White Mist from their hands would be courting death and wrath of the entire world.

Consequently, the people of Dao Sect immediately acted to gather the Longevity White Mist scattered across heaven and earth.

Ye Tiancan, Biyao Fairy, and others left with their forces one by one.

The battle finally concluded!

...

That day, the Heavenly Court was extremely busy.

Purple Fairy should have held a coronation ceremony, but she was severely injured, rendering the ceremony not very impactful, unable to gain the corresponding insights from the many Great Daos.

The personnel replacements and reforms within the Heavenly Court also needed urgent attention.

Fortunately, An Li was uninjured, managing the situation, thus everything was orderly and not chaotic.

"If Li An in the underworld knows, he should feel comforted."
