Chapter 122 Supreme Supreme
The leader of this group was a tall, golden-haired creature with a canine-like head, but whose eyes shone with wisdom.
He came from the Golden Mastiff tribe. The Golden Mastiff tribe is not considered one of the top tribes, but thanks to their keen sense of smell and wisdom in assessing situations, they have always done quite well.
Jin Xiao, the patriarch of the Golden Mastiff Clan, a quasi-emperor, tidied his appearance when he was still ten thousand miles away from the South Heavenly Gate.
Then, with the utmost respect, excitement, and loudness, he bowed deeply towards the direction of the Lingxiao Palace, his voice resounding through the starry sky:
"Golden Mastiff Clan Chief Jin Xiao, leading the entire clan, congratulates the Heavenly Emperor on establishing the Supreme Heavenly Court. The establishment of the Heavenly Court is a blessing for the Origin Realm, a blessing for all the heavens, and a blessing for all spirits. Our Golden Mastiff Clan has admired the Emperor's majesty since before the Emperor attained enlightenment."
Seeing the grandeur of the Heavenly Court, we are filled with longing and desire. We wish to dedicate our entire clan to serving the Heavenly Court, to be at the beck and call of the Heavenly Emperor, and to do our utmost to protect this land, even at the cost of our lives!
His voice was full of sincerity, his posture was extremely humble, his flattery was deafening, and his eyes were full of fanaticism and piety.
The other racial representatives who followed him, many of whom hadn't even settled in their seats, heard Jin Xiao's string of declarations of loyalty and their expressions immediately changed, cursing him inwardly:
"That damn sycophant, he even admired you before he even attained enlightenment, have you no shame? You big-eyed, thick-browed guy, how can you be so shameless? Where's your usual arrogance?"
"How shameless! How infuriating! You were so quick, you finished speaking before I could even say anything!"
"The Golden Mastiffs truly live up to their reputation; their noses are incredibly sensitive, and their skin is unbelievably thick!"
"Oh no, he beat me to it!"
A group of people cursed inwardly.
Jiang Hao, standing in front of the Lingxiao Palace, naturally heard these words.
His gaze fell upon the excitement and cunning in the eyes of the golden mastiff chieftain, and he found it amusing.
"Golden Mastiff Clan, Golden Roar," Jiang Hao said, his voice calm yet carrying the might of the heavens.
"You're quite good. Since you have this intention, I won't be stingy."
Jiang Hao pointed, and a golden light fell into Jin Xiao's hand, transforming into a token and a scroll.
"You are hereby appointed as a Heavenly Patrol General and concurrently the Lord of the Earth Star. You are responsible for patrolling the heavens and supervising lawlessness, and you govern the Earth Star Domain and the surrounding three domains. I expect you to perform your duties diligently and live up to this position."
Jin Xiao was stunned for a moment, then he was overwhelmed with joy!
Divine General, Star Lord!
They were the first to be banned!
This glory, this authority!
Jin Xiao was so excited that his golden fur trembled all over. He instantly prostrated himself on the ground, his voice choked with emotion:
"Your subject... Jin Xiao, thanks the Heavenly Emperor for his great favor, and will surely repay this kindness with his life!"
He raised his head, took the token and scroll, and felt the heavenly fortune and the will of the Heavenly Emperor contained within them. He was so excited that he could hardly contain himself.
When he saw the envious, jealous, and even somewhat sour looks in the eyes of those who came after him, he felt even more proud, his back straight and his head held high.
What are you looking at? This is called having good taste!
That's called courage, understand? What licking? I'm pledging allegiance to a wise ruler. You guys want to lick my boots but don't have the skill.
Don't you want to lick his boots? You're just jealous!
I was prepared from the moment the Heavenly Emperor built the Heavenly Court. I was prepared for a hundred years. Can you do that?
Jin Xiao stood tall and proud.
This made everyone feel even worse.
"Damn it, why didn't I run faster?"
"Why didn't I lick his boots sooner? If I had known this would happen, I would have just gone out and started praising the Emperor, licking his boots while I was doing so!"
With Jin Xiao as their role model, representatives from various factions rushed to express their loyalty and request to join the Heavenly Court.
The scene became incredibly lively.
After discussing for a while with Lingbao Tianzun, Jiang Hao began to bestow titles upon each race based on their strength, specialties, and past performance.
"The Nine-Headed Lion Clan, appointed as the Demon-Suppressing General, commands a celestial army."
"The Xuan Turtle Clan, appointed as guardian deities, are stationed at the Northern Heavenly Gate."
"The Human Race's Feathering Cult bestows the title of Feathered Star Lord, who governs the original territory and must abide by the laws of the Heavenly Court."
"The Elf race, appointed as messengers of life, are responsible for overseeing celestial plants and some healing aspects."
"The Heavenly Mystery Pavilion, also known as the Heavenly Mystery Hall, is responsible for divination and intelligence, and is directly under the jurisdiction of the Lingxiao Hall."
"..."
Deep within the various forbidden zones, the divine thoughts of the supreme beings intertwined.
"Hmph, what a grand display."
"The Heavenly Court... Hmph, it'll be finished sooner or later, just like the Daoist's Heavenly Court!"
"Let's see how long he can be so smug. With such arrogance and the accumulation of such fortune and karma, his future tribulations are bound to be severe."
"Let's see what tricks he can pull."
There was envy, disdain, curses, and a subtle, almost imperceptible complexity.
They had to admit that Jiang Hao was far more successful than them. Although they were also revered by all the heavens at the time, their prestige and influence were far inferior to Jiang Hao's now.
One imperial edict after another descended like heavenly music, its golden light entering the hands of the representatives of each ethnic group, transforming into tokens and decrees symbolizing authority.
The moment that light enveloped them, all those who received the title clearly felt an unprecedented change.
A magnificent and mysterious power flowed out from the Lingxiao Palace, quietly connecting with the fortune of themselves and even the races behind them through the imperial edict.
The recipient felt a sudden clarity of mind, and some obscure points in his past cultivation began to loosen, as if he were standing on a higher platform overlooking the Great Dao.
Within the territory of the race they represented, spiritual energy seemed to have become more active, and the laws of heaven and earth operated more smoothly and clearly.
With the token of the Celestial General in hand, Jin Xiao seemed to be able to see some of the vague energy flow in the star fields under the coverage of the Heavenly Court's laws.
The decree of the Demon-Suppressing God General has further activated the dormant fighting spirit and evil-dispelling power within the bloodline of the Nine-Headed Lion Clan Chief.
As the guardian deity assumed his duties, the ancient, phantom-like carapace of the Xuan Turtle Clan Chief faintly appeared behind him, resonating with the aura of the Northern Heavenly Gate.
The Lord of the Heavenly Mystery Hall felt that the interference and backlash he experienced when deducing heavenly secrets had significantly lessened, as if the Heavenly Court's fortune was sharing the burden for him...
Having this identity means that they are not only nominally affiliated with the Heavenly Court, but also have truly received a gift of fortune and are bound by responsibilities.
All those who received the imperial decree, while overjoyed, also felt a heavy weight in their hearts, understanding that from then on they would truly share in the glory and misfortune of the Heavenly Court.
Meanwhile, those forces and cultivators who had not yet received the imperial decree and were watching from afar observed the faint golden aura and high-spirited demeanor emanating from the recipients.
Sensing the subtle changes emanating from their tribe's territory, the envy and longing in their eyes almost materialized.
Joining the Heavenly Court seems to be a shortcut to heaven!
"Heavenly Emperor!"
It's unclear who shouted first, but their voice trembled with excitement, yet it carried unparalleled sincerity and fervor.
"Heavenly Emperor!"
"Heavenly Emperor!"
"The Chaos Emperor!"
First came the newly conferred representatives of various races and their entourage, gathered outside the South Heavenly Gate, followed by the densely packed cultivators and beings from the distant starry sky who had come to witness the ceremony.
Finally, as if in a chain reaction, in countless corners of the heavens and myriad realms, wherever there were living beings who knew of this matter and felt a surge of emotion.
Regardless of their cultivation level or race, everyone involuntarily joined in the chanting.
At first, the sounds were somewhat chaotic, but they quickly coalesced into a terrifying wave of sound that swept across the starry sea!
The universe seemed to be trembling.
