Chapter 13 The Four Saints of Kowloon Island(1/3)
"Inheriting the way of heaven and following the order of earth: Zi'er Tianpeng Immortal, who has deep celestial connections and endless blessings. Under the protection of the way, he is my ally and will assist me for a long time..."
"I decree you to be the marshal of the Tianhe River, the president of the whole world, monitor the rivers, punish the lawless, and punish the unjust. This is your duty!"
Tianpeng knelt stupidly in the Lingxiao Palace, listening to the Heavenly Court's edict recited by the Jade Emperor's confidant Taibai Jinxing.
He was confused and confused.
"This...does he become Marshal Tianhe?"
He doesn't quite understand!
It should be noted that this Marshal Tianhe has not yet been finalized.
But in terms of his responsibilities, the president is everywhere, monitoring rivers and rivers, exercising power on behalf of heaven, punishing lawless people, and slaying evil spirits.
This is the first level of heavenly priesthood.
Needless to say, a great Luo must be appointed to take charge in order to be able to suppress the unruly Sihai Clan.
If we can't send Da Luo, we have to send a Golden Immortal no matter what, right?
Even if you can't invite a golden immortal, you have to at least be a heavenly immortal, right?
He, Tianpeng, is an earthly immortal. How can he be so virtuous and capable as to occupy such a high position?
If Marshal Tianhe of the Heavenly Court made a joke that would not leave the Marshal's Mansion, it would hurt the face of the Heavenly Court and the majesty of the Jade Emperor!
So, this is a hot potato!
After passing the Biyou Palace and his party, Tianpeng already understood.
In the three realms, everything is empty.
Only Taoism and magical powers are the real support!
Therefore, after hearing Taibai Jinxing's edict, Tianpeng did not immediately thank him.
On the contrary, he was trembling with fear and bowed his head: "How could you be so virtuous and capable as a little immortal? How dare you live here? I hope your majesty will take back your life!"
Are you kidding me?
Tianpeng knows his own weight.
He was afraid that even He Bo from the lower realm might not be able to defeat him.
Just bring any dragon king and you can teach him to become a god.
By then, something went wrong.
If the Jade Emperor is beaten down, with his small arms and legs, he may become a scapegoat at any time.
Tianpeng already has a clear enough understanding of this!
The Jade Emperor looked at Tianpeng and couldn't help but become suspicious: "Has Senior Brother Tongtian enlightened Tianpeng Immortal?"
The saint is invisible, just like the great road.
The sage does nothing, just like heaven and earth.
Therefore, it is colorless, soundless, intangible, intangible, measurable, and incalculable.
Therefore, the saint can enlighten others silently and grant blessings.
But the problem is...
This Tianpeng Immortal looked submissive and fearful.
It doesn't look like there is a saint behind him.
"Am I overthinking it?" the Jade Emperor said to himself, and then he rejected the idea in his heart.
Because the sage does nothing, he does everything.
The sage's moves are always true and false, false and true.
If you can easily see through the sage's chessboard.
Then the saints don't have to carefully calculate the cause and effect and fall into the three realms.
As soon as he thought of this, the Jade Emperor knew what he should do.
He stood up with a smile and said softly to Tianpeng: "Why should I be so humble, my dear?"
"Before you leave, I have already made a promise to you..." The Jade Emperor whispered softly, but with a hidden edge: "When you return from your service, you will be rewarded with the rank of Marshal of the Tianhe Navy!"
The Jade Emperor said with a serious face: "Do you want me to break my words and become fat in front of the sentient beings in the three realms, and be like that kind of king who doesn't believe in his words?"
Tianpeng was immediately trembling with fear, dripping with cold sweat, and apologized repeatedly: "How dare you, little fairy? How dare you, little fairy!"
How dare he offend the Jade Emperor?
If he is jealous of the Jade Emperor, he can find any reason to throw him into a prison!
He was even tied to the Immortal Killing Platform and bombarded by thunder, and his soul was destroyed!
It’s not like the Jade Emperor has never done this kind of thing!
The Jade Emperor suddenly beamed with joy: "In this way, Aiqing has accepted the decree and is waiting to take office!"
After saying that, he signaled to Taibai Jinxing, took the decree, and stuffed it into Tianpeng's hand.
Tianpeng had no choice but to worship: "Xiaoxian is sincere and frightened, and will obey the law!"
no solution anymore!
Tianpeng lamented in his heart: "I, Old Zhu, may be in trouble this time!"
How can an earthly immortal hold the position of marshal?
But when he thought about it again, he became happy again.
Because, this Marshal of the Tianhe Navy must have a high status in heaven.
There must be a lot of incense, salary, and heavenly merit.
"You have something to eat, you have something to drink, and you have some rights..." Tianpeng thought to himself: "What do I, Old Zhu, do with all these things?"
"Just be careful and don't offend anyone..."
"Anyway, I was put on the shelf by the Jade Emperor..."
"Even if you do something wrong, you will just be demoted to the mortal world..."
"As long as I serve as Marshal of Tianhe for a few years and save some money, I, Old Zhu, will still be a happy person even in the mortal world!"
Thinking of this, the sadness on Tianpeng's face disappeared.
He took the Tianting Talisman and bowed his head to the Jade Emperor to thank him again and again. After getting the Jade Emperor's permission, he stood up and said goodbye.
When walking out of the Lingxiao Palace, Tianpeng thought of the world of joy that he had heard of before.
He has long heard of the famous names in Huanxi Realm!
There are living Bodhisattvas there. They feel sorry for the immortals in heaven who are helpless and helpless, so they donate their bodies in the flesh.
To enter the world of joy, you not only need to be recommended by acquaintances, but you also need to have enough Tianyin!
In the past, Tianpeng was short of money, where could he afford it?
now……
"I am now a marshal!"
"Bodhisattvas from the realm of joy, I am here!"
……………………
The Jade Emperor looked at the back of the canopy and disappeared outside the sky curtain.
He leaned slightly on the throne.
A pair of eyes, light and dark intertwined, I don't know what I am thinking.
Taibai Jinxing, who had been standing beside him, finally couldn't help it and asked: "Your Majesty, is this how Tianpeng Immortal became Tianpeng Marshal?"
The Jade Emperor smiled mysteriously and did not answer.
Taibai Jinxing said with some worry: "Please forgive me for talking too much..."
"This Tianpeng Immortal is nothing more than an Earth Immortal..."
"If he really takes office, he will be Marshal of the Tianhe Navy..."
"I am worried that there are many people from all over the world who are dissatisfied. This may hurt Your Majesty's face!"
The Jade Emperor glanced at this confidant and naturally understood what Taibai Jinxing meant.
It's a pity that this Taibaijin star is still small in size after all, and one leaf obscures the view.
How do you know that this canopy might be the son of the Jie leader who fell quietly?
In fact, this canopy is a touchstone placed by the leader in the heaven!
The leader of Jiejiao is probably testing the heaven's attitude towards Jiejiao through the canopy!
