Taishang Taoist Ancestor said: "Pin Dao has long ignored the affairs of this world, so I am afraid that I will disappoint fellow Taoist Yuan this time."
Yuan Sheng said: "The Eight Views Palace is also in the world of mortals, and even you, Taoist Patriarch, cannot completely transcend the affairs of the world of mortals.
The Kunlun event would lose its meaning if Taozu did not participate.
Although I have some abilities, when it comes to influence, it is still far behind Dao Ancestor.
There have always been misunderstandings between me and the saints in the immortal world.
Therefore, I believe that whether it is for public or private purposes, Daozu, you should go and participate."
Taishang Taozu said: "It is not difficult for Pindao to attend, but the purpose of your Kunlun gathering, fellow Taoist Yuan, is not clear to Pindao yet.
Pindao's departure is just a flag, but if Pindao goes, what if he becomes a tool for you to use, fellow Taoist Yuan?
Who will bear this responsibility?"
Yuan Sheng said: "People in the world have misunderstandings about me, but I didn't expect you, Taoist Patriarch, to think so of me?"
Taishang Taoist Ancestor said: "I don't know much about fellow Taoist Yuan, so I dare not draw any conclusions."
Yuan Sheng said: "This grand gathering in Kunlun, with Taoist ancestors present, is what people want.
If there is any conspiracy below, Daozu, you have an insight into the details. If you climb up and call out, everyone will definitely respond.
Therefore, based on this, you should participate.”
Taishang Daozu was silent for a long time, and then said: "Okay, since fellow Taoist Yuan insists on inviting me, then Pindao will go there."
Yuan Sheng stood up, bowed his head heavily, and said, "Thank you, Dao Ancestor!"
Afterwards, Yuan Sheng said goodbye and left first.
Taishang Daozu promised that he would arrive on time.
After Yuan Sheng left, a disciple of Taishang Daozu came up and said in confusion: "Master, weren't you ready to attend this Kunlun event early in the morning?
Why are you refusing again and again today?"
Taishang Daozu smiled and said: "This is not to refuse but to welcome. It is just to test the Yuan Sheng's purpose."
The disciple said, "Have you tested it out yet?"
Taishang Taoist Ancestor said: "Just as I imagined, he is definitely not trying to show off his power this time, but is deliberately showing weakness!"
The day of the Kunlun Festival is getting closer...
During these days, a large number of masters came every day.
Yuan Yuxian will be responsible for the reception.
Yuan Yuxian hired a large number of servants in the city to help her receive the heroes.
They have prepared enough elixirs, fruits and ambrosia, and every guest who comes will be given exquisite gifts.
The gifts include rich elixirs and good magic tools...
Those masters with lower cultivation level were very happy to receive such souvenirs.
Every morning, noon and evening, Yuan Yuxian prepared a feast to entertain the heroes.
And invited singers and musicians to perform...
Yuan Sheng often came out to toast with the heroes without any pretense.
Although this Kunlun event has not officially started yet, the heroes have already begun to like this amiable Yuan Sheng.
The two sages of the West, Zhunti and Jieyin, arrived on this day.
Accompanying them were Master Creation and the four great Vajras under his sect.
When they arrived, Yuan Sheng burned incense and colorful ribbons and went to greet them.
Immediately afterwards, Xiao Ling, the Immortal King of the Shura Realm, also came with his two envoys on the left and right...
Yuan Sheng also burned incense and flowers and went to greet him.
On the second day, Empress Nuwa came alone...
The arrival of Empress Nuwa was very sensational. Not only Yuan Sheng and Yuan Yuxian came out to welcome her, burning incense and colorful decorations.
The two sages of the West, Immortal King Xiao Ling, Zhenhua Zhenren, etc. all came out to greet him.
Chen Yang also came out with the other heroes to join in the fun.
These saints were not united. When the Immortal King Xiao Ling came, the two saints of the West did not come out.
Master Creation actually came out and had a chat with Xiao Ling.
Only when Nuwa came, all the saints came out to greet her sincerely.
When Chen Yang saw Nuwa clearly, he was slightly surprised because he felt that Nuwa and his wife had many similarities.
The Nuwa Empress was dressed in plain white, with cold eyes, like a goddess who had emerged from the mortal world.
After she arrived, she greeted the saints with neither humility nor arrogance, nor saltiness nor indifference.
The last ones to arrive were Taishang Daozu, Tongtian Cult Leader, and Yuanshi Tianzun.
They also brought some core disciples here.
The leader of Tongtian brought the Wudang Holy Mother, the Golden Spirit Holy Mother and Sanxiao.
Yuanshi Tianzun brought the Antarctic Immortal and Master Taiyi to come.
Taishang Taozu brought a disciple here. The disciple was called Qingfeng, and he was known as Taoist Qingfeng.
When these three big men came, all the saints came out to greet them, including Empress Nuwa.
The rest of the heroes did not dare to neglect.
Suddenly, the sky was filled with colorful lights and holy lights. It was truly a gathering of gods.
It is worth mentioning that Princess Longji and others from Heaven also came.
Chen Yang naturally didn't say hello to them, so as not to expose himself.
Of course Yuan Sheng and Yuan Yuxian understood this, because they asked Chen Yang to play Gu Xianyuan.
Among the saints, the only ones who have not arrived are Emperor Fuxi and Ye Qingming in the Netherworld Blood Sea.
The fact that these two people didn't come was also expected by Yuan Sheng.
The Kunlun Festival was held on the second day, and the party started that night.
The heroes chatted with people they knew each other. In the sky, bonfires burned, and the darkness was illuminated as bright as day.
The music continues all night long...
Endless wine, endless elixirs and delicacies!
Chen Yang walked through it and felt very happy.
He didn't run to find Yun Xiao, because he knew that the scene looked messy, but Yuan Sheng was a perceptive person.
You are already in perfect condition, but don't seek death and reveal your flaws.
This night, the heroes stayed up all night and caroused all night long!
They couldn't help but sigh that the fairyland had not been so lively for many years.
Yuan Sheng was interspersed among them, and he kept toasting to the heroes without any pretense.
On the second day, at the event site, the sky was crisp and clear, with no clouds in the sky.
The morning sun shines, surrounded by flowers...
The event has officially begun.
The heroes took their seats one after another below...
It was bustling with thousands of people.
In the arrangement of honorary positions above, the middle position is the position of Taishang Daozu.
The second position is that of Nuwa.
Yuan Sheng arranged himself in the last position... As for the other positions, there is no order.
All the saints can find their own seats and sit down.
The saints are also modest among themselves and do not compete for position.
The other saints would not have any objections to Taishang Daozu and Nuwa empress taking the throne.
Chen Yang sat in a position below the heroes, not showing off the mountains or the water.
Anyway, Yuan Sheng and Yuan Yuxian have no time to pay attention to him recently... Sometimes, when he goes to ask Yuan Yuxian, Yuan Yuxian doesn't bother to pay attention to him.
It is worth mentioning that Lu Ya also came with his disciples.
But he couldn't recognize Chen Yang either.
Although Lu Ya is powerful, there is still a gap between him and those saints, so he cannot sit in an honorable position.
Lu Ya found Yuan Sheng alone and expressed his gratitude in person.
Yuan Sheng smiled slightly and said: "Taoists in the world are all from the same family, so there is no need to be polite."
Before the event began, there was a song and dance performance.
Afterwards, Yuan Sheng came to the high platform in the field.
Facing the saints and heroes, Yuan Sheng spoke.
He said: "This time I took the liberty of holding this grand gathering in Kunlun. Speaking of which, it is indeed abrupt.
Because Kunlun is not my territory, this time I have borrowed the territory of fellow Taoist Tongtian, fellow Taoist Yuanshi and Taozu. I am extremely grateful to these three for their generosity."
After saying that, he bowed deeply to the throne.
Taishang Daozu and Yuanshi Tianzun bowed slightly in return.
Leader Tongtian smiled slightly and said: "Fellow Taoist Yuan is too polite. Speaking of which, our fellow apprentices are still not familiar with etiquette. What should have been done by us has been left to Taoist friends to worry about."
Yuan Sheng immediately said: "Fellow Taoist Tongtian said this, I am really ashamed."
The Taishang Taoist Patriarch raised his voice and said: "The people gathered here today are all members of our Tao. We practitioners should pay attention to clear thoughts and free and easy conduct.
Therefore, there is no need to say too much politeness.
Fellow Daoist Yuan, do you think so?"
Yuan Sheng hurriedly said: "Yes, yes, what the Taoist said is absolutely true!"
After that, Yuan Sheng began to get back to the topic and said: "More than a hundred years ago, I used the Hongmeng Purple Qi to transform this immortal world into the current situation.
Later, I also benefited greatly from that transformation.
But at the same time, many fellow Taoists have lost a lot of things.
I have been feeling uneasy about this.
But after so many years, I have never had the opportunity to talk to you properly."
"So this time, I want to take this grand event and take this opportunity to apologize to all the saints and heroes, and also express my true thoughts!"
Yuan Sheng seemed very sincere.
All the heroes listened patiently.
The heroes participated enthusiastically in this Kunlun event, and the main reason was that they really wanted to know what Yuan Sheng's plans were.
Yuan Sheng is now the strongest being in the immortal world, and he has such a deep hatred for human beings... He has always been like a sword hanging over the heads of the heroes.
Everyone doesn’t know when this sword will fall...
This time, Yuan Sheng behaved so humbly and politely.
Many people have a big stone dropped in their hearts.
At least I know that nothing will happen for the time being.
Many smart people know that this is probably Yuan Sheng's delaying strategy.
But if all the saints accept this delaying strategy, what do they have to worry about?
There are also more people who are willing to be paralyzed like this deep in their hearts!
Yuan Sheng continued to speak.
"What happened back then was that you killed me and I killed you.
Later, I went to the earth and found the Godly Tree of Grains and Plants, which also caused too many killings.
In my opinion, the hatred should have ended that year.
More importantly, I realize that prosperity and replacement are natural changes.
Forcing a reversal will only lead to a dead end.
After so many years, we Kepler people should accept the reality.
Dynasties change, and the owners of the planet will also change... Next, if we Kepler people want to live well, the only thing we have to do is to coexist peacefully with you.
Otherwise, it will be a dead end! I know this very clearly.
So I never want to be your enemy again... I know that many of you will not believe these words.
I may also feel that this is my delaying strategy...but I should speak out first and then do it.
If I really wanted to do something, I would not make a covenant with heaven that is not beneficial to me."
