Chapter 260: Mood Lifting
The banner is unfurled, the horn is sounding for a long time, and there are more than 30,000 heavenly soldiers with bright armor, swords and guns flashing with cold light, majestic and high-spirited in front of the Lingxiao Treasure Palace. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
Although the Bull Demon King dispatched 10,000 elite soldiers to guard the West Heavenly Gate to ensure that the retreat was not lost, and there were no ten steps for the two miscellaneous demons to stand guard and put on a show, but there were still more than 400,000 monsters in front of the Lingxiao Treasure Palace, and most of them were elites, and they could easily crush the 30,000 heavenly soldiers in front of him, but to Chen Xian's surprise, after the Bull Demon King arrived here, he did not move, and he couldn't help asking: "What is the situation now?"
"As I said before, we are not here to seize the Heavenly Palace, and it is not appropriate to slaughter too many Heavenly Soldiers. Let's just surround the Lingxiao Treasure Palace, the Jade Emperor will go to court in a few hours, what does he think, he will soon know, and then decide what to do next, calm down!"
As he was talking, he saw a passage more than a foot wide in the middle of the dense heavenly soldier phalanx opposite, and an old man with a kind smile on his face walked over from it and went straight to the demon soldier camp.
"Who is this old man?" He smiled very kindly, and he was very bold, he dared to come to the enemy camp alone, what a character!" In order not to affect the appearance of the army, Chen Xian asked in a fascinated way.
"This old man is Taibai Xing Li Changgeng, don't look at him smiling kindly, just think he's a good person, his heart is black, and there are no less than 10,000 creatures that die under his Taibai sword, and he is full of smiling tigers!" replied to the Macaque King.
"He's the Platinum Star? It's no wonder that after tricking the monkey to the sky for the first time and becoming Bi Ma Wen, he was able to trick him into the sky for the second time. Could it be that he came because the Jade Emperor was planning to recruit An?" After hearing that this old man was Tai Bai Xing, Chen Xian couldn't help but think in his heart.
Because there are still four or five miles away from Li Changgeng, and he can't speak lip language, Chen Xian doesn't know what he said to the little demon in front of the battle, but he doesn't care, there will be a demon to report.
The little demon on the battlefield spread to the depths of the army layer by layer, and said: "Report to the great king, the four kings, the five kings, and the eight kings, there is an old man who comes to the battle, claiming to be Li Changgeng, saying that he is a messenger sent by the Jade Emperor, and he has something to discuss with several kings." ”
"Get out of the way and let him in!" said the Bull Demon King, and immediately a herald passed down the order layer by layer, and in the middle of the demon soldier camp, he immediately dodged a three-foot road.
Chen Xian raised his eyes and saw that Li Changgeng was dressed in a neat garment, shaking his spirits, pulling his clothes, following the rules, and walking towards a few people step by step.
"Li Changgeng has seen four kings!" Li Changgeng shook his sleeves and saluted.
"Venus is polite!" the Bull Demon King replied.
As for the Lion Camel King, the Macaque King, and Chen Xiande's subordinate figures, they just raised their hands and did not speak.
"Jin Xing, I wonder what the Jade Emperor sent you to say?" asked the Bull Demon King with a smile on his face.
"After all, Heavenly Court is orthodox in the Three Realms, and the four demon kings who brought troops to the Great Upper Realm are tantamount to rebellion. The Great Heavenly Venerable was merciful and didn't want to see too many casualties, so he sent the old man to recruit him, hoping that the demon kings could lead their subordinates back to the nether realm. Li Changgeng said with a smile.
"It's easy to say, it's easy to say, I don't know what official position the Jade Emperor allows me to wait for?" asked the Bull Demon King.
"If the demon kings retire, the Great Heavenly Venerable will not despise the reward, and he is willing to add the title of Heavenly King. Li Changgeng bowed and said.
In the heavenly court, in addition to the status of the three Qing Dynasty, the Jade Emperor has to go out to greet him, and commensurate with the Taoist ancestor, under the Jade Emperor, he has the highest official rank of the Four Emperors (Tianding), and under the Four Emperors, it is the Emperor of Donghua, the Emperor Zhenwu and other emperors, and under the emperor, it is the king of heaven. Under the king of heaven is the marshal or the commander of the eight departments, under the marshal is the general (the eight star officials), under the general there is a governor, under the governor there is a commander, under the commander there is a military chief, below the military chief is the heavenly soldiers and Bi Ma Wen and other generations who have no quality or do not enter the stream, and then there are miscellaneous servants such as wrestlers and palace maids (there are few civil officials, so they will not be listed).
In this way, the status of the Heavenly King is already very bullish in the Heavenly Court, and it is one grade higher than the official title awarded by Zhu Bajie, who is a three-flower gathering top, a five-qi dynasty, and a self-proclaimed Da Luo Immortal, but even Taiyi Jinxian can't beat the Taiyi Golden Immortal. As Li Changgeng said, the Jade Emperor does not despise rewards, and it is the title of Heavenly King, although it must be like the Monkey King, who has no official position and no rank, will not assign subordinates, and is not qualified to participate in the court meeting, but he is a high-ranking official.
"'Murder and arson of gold belts, repair bridges and repair roads without corpses', the ancients did not deceive me! Sure enough, in ancient times, if there was no strong background and wanted to be an official, and if formal methods such as the imperial examination could not work, they would have to kill people and set fire to be recruited!" After listening to Tai Bai Xing's words, Chen Xian secretly thought in his heart.
"Although the title of Heavenly King is respected, it is a little worse. Lao Jinxing went back and told the Jade Emperor not to be stingy, just a false title, it must be the title of emperor, otherwise we will not retreat!"
"All official positions are honored from humility, and the four demon kings should not be awarded the position of king of heaven first, and after making meritorious contributions, they will be crowned emperors. Li Changgeng said with a smile.
"My old cow is an acute child, and I can't wait for a long time. Jin Xing still went to tell the Jade Emperor that he would award the emperor first, and then make meritorious contributions to him in the future. The Bull Demon King was not in a hurry at all.
"King Niu, this is a problem for the old decay......" Tai Bai Xing twisted his beard and groaned.
"Anyway, it's an empty title, it's famous, and it's not a good thing, and if you give an emperor and you won't miss two pieces of meat from the Jade Emperor, you can go and talk to him again." The Lion Camel King also stepped forward to help.
"That's it, you just go and talk to the Jade Emperor, whether you allow it or not, it's also his business, don't worry about the Jade Emperor here." The macaque king also said, in fact, he wanted to say that the emperor was not in a hurry and the eunuch was in a hurry, but he thought about it and held it back.
"Okay, then the old man will go back to the Jade Emperor!" Li Changgeng bowed and then retreated.
"Let's make trouble in the Heavenly Palace, could it be that we want the Jade Emperor to recruit An?" After Li Changgeng walked away, Chen Xian asked the Bull Demon King.
"Well, after all, Heavenly Court is orthodox and occupies the name of righteousness, so we have received his position, so we don't have to worry about the Buddhists raising a large army to fight. And if there is a change in the Tao today, I am afraid that there will be another catastrophe in the future, it is really hard to say, multiple identities and multiple ways to retreat. The Bull Demon King said with a heavy face.
"Oh!" Chen Xian nodded, and finally understood the intention of making trouble in the Heavenly Palace this time, it turned out that he wanted to turn a bandit into an official, turn a demon into an immortal, and mix an official body, so as not to be killed at will by Heavenly Court or Lingshan in the future on the grounds of subduing demons and eliminating demons, and with an official body, Heavenly Court and Lingshan must be famous if they want to move them again.
"In that case, why didn't the eldest brother accept Zhao'an just now, in case the Jade Emperor was reluctant to be crowned emperor, wouldn't he have wasted his efforts?" Chen Xian asked.
"This time, I finally took advantage of the emptiness of the heavenly court to come up and bring a bunch of little demons to protect us, we don't have to be afraid of the Jade Emperor, let's consume it with him! Although the Heavenly King is tall, he is still a courtier, and when he sees the Jade Emperor, he still has to salute, and the emperor is different, and he can sit on an equal footing with the Jade Emperor and the Four Emperors, and be commensurate with Taoist friends. Although we are recruited, we are not courtiers for the Jade Emperor, and we can't do it in name!" said the Bull Demon King with a domineering face.
Well, this is the gap between the big demon king and the little monster, the little monster trembled when he heard the attack of the heavenly soldiers, the big demon king was not only not afraid, but also dared to hit the sky, Sun Monkey wanted the Jade Emperor to abdicate and let him go, the Bull Demon King knew the current affairs better than the monkey, and brought countless creatures to coerce the Jade Emperor to be the emperor, and he was on an equal footing.
"It seems that I should also adjust my mentality, if I want to be a big demon, I should not be afraid of heaven and earth, and I should not be afraid of the head and tail, it is really not the demon!" Chen Xian thought about it, and felt that his soul was unprecedentedly clear, and his mood was greatly improved.
