Chapter 576 The Crane's Speechlessness
"Hello to you too," Yunxiao said with a smile.
"Fairy, have you finished your work over there?" Chizuru asked in surprise.
He remembered Yunxiao saying he wanted to go back to the Three Immortals Island.
Now that we're done with our work, wouldn't it be a good time to help him rescue Sun Wukong?
This is a task, after all.
As long as we rescue Sun Wukong, we can let him cause trouble in the Heavenly Court of the Immortal Realm.
Anyway, CloudSky will cover you!
In that celestial realm, there is a path to certain death!
........................
At that time, as long as all the rare resources there are retrieved, his enviable talent for cultivation, which is a hundred times greater, will be put to great use.
With the aid of those precious resources in cultivation, one's strength will surely advance by leaps and bounds. Just thinking about this makes one secretly delighted, as if one can already see oneself becoming incredibly powerful.
"Well, finally done! By the way, I have something to tell you. I just made a special trip to the Heavenly Court and met with the high and mighty Jade Emperor. I mentioned to him that you should take on the position of the God of Justice!"
Yunxiao covered her mouth and laughed after she finished speaking.
Upon hearing this, Qianhe's eyes widened instantly, and her hands began to shake rapidly like rattles, as she repeatedly said, "Oh dear, fairy, please don't joke like that! What virtue or ability do I possess to shoulder such a heavy responsibility?"
I thought to myself, "No way!"
He doesn't want to be an official!
However, Yunxiao replied with a serious and solemn expression, "This is by no means a joke! The Jade Emperor is in dire need of people right now, and I specifically recommended you. He also highly recognizes your abilities."
Hearing this, Chizuru inwardly groaned.
What does it mean to be short-staffed?
Didn't your Heavenly Court already complete the Investiture of the Gods?
This is no sweet job at all, it's practically a death sentence for me!
At this moment, his heart was in turmoil, like fifteen buckets of water being drawn up and down.
The position of the Heavenly Judge in the Heavenly Court may appear majestic and radiant on the surface, but in reality, it is the target of everyone's criticism and is at the center of controversy.
The slightest mistake could anger all the powerful forces at once.
He was well aware of the complex web of power dynamics within the Heavenly Court!
The Heavenly Court has at least several factions.
The Chan Sect, the Jie Sect, the Haotian Sect, and some other sects.
Don't be fooled by the fact that the Human Sect is led by the Grand Master Xuandu; most of them have ulterior motives in order to curry favor with Laozi for the elixir of immortality!
....................
now.
In the current situation, Chizuru is truly in a dilemma.
Chizuru knew that if she rashly refused the proposal, she would inevitably anger the all-powerful Jade Emperor.
At that point, the consequences would be unimaginable, and even their lives would be in danger.
He hasn't even dealt with the Heavenly Emperor yet, and now he's provoked Haotian. What's he trying to do?
It would be better to just restart it.
"What should I do?"
Chizuru felt like she was being roasted over a fire, caught in a dilemma, unable to move forward or backward.
While he was hesitating, Yunxiao patted him on the shoulder: "Fellow Daoist, don't worry. With me here, since I recommended you, I will naturally protect you. Moreover, if you become the God of Justice, it will be entirely beneficial to you!"
"What, still hesitating?" Yunxiao saw that Qianhe was not speaking and wondered what he was hesitating about.
Qianhe looked up at Yunxiao, her eyes full of doubt: "Benefits? Fairy Yunxiao, don't try to fool me. What benefits could the God of Justice possibly offer? Not to mention the threats from various forces, just the sheer volume of tasks alone would exhaust anyone."
His role as the head of Maoshan Sect was somewhat like that of a hands-off manager.
Should we make him a judicial god?
Damn it.
Yunxiao smiled and said, "Do you know that the God of Justice is in charge of the Heavenly Laws? If you were to take up this position, you could freely browse through the Heavenly Court's benefits and ancient texts. Aren't you tempted?"
Chizuru's eyes lit up; this was indeed a great temptation.
It's a perk.
Those must be peaches of immortality, elixirs of immortality, and fine wines and dews.
But he still had some concerns: "If I make a mistake, it will be irreversible."
This is not a joke.
The Heavenly Rules of Haotian are very strict!
Actually, Chizuru was overthinking this.
The Heavenly Rules apply to ordinary gods and immortals.
For people of the three religions, the role of heavenly rules is dispensable.
..............................
Yunxiao shook his head: "You don't need to worry. Besides, as the God of Justice, you can legitimately make connections with powerful figures from all walks of life, gain more information and connections, which will greatly benefit your future development."
She really wanted to say it.
You are Xuanzhen!
Senior Brother of the Three Teachings and the Mysterious Sect!
Who would dare mess with you?
Only a saint would dare!
After listening, Qianhe fell into deep thought, realizing that Yunxiao's words made sense.
He wanted to improve his skills, and although the position was dangerous, it was also full of opportunities.
After a long silence, Qianhe slowly spoke: "Isn't that God of Justice Yang Jian?"
He remembered that Yang Jian was the God of Justice.
Yunxiao was taken aback: "Yang Jian? Who is he?"
She remembered that during the Investiture of the Gods, in the Nine-Bend River Formation, Yang Jian's Eight-Nine Arcane Arts were completely useless in front of her. He was directly defeated by the Golden Bucket and had no room for resistance. How could someone like that become the God of Justice?
