The reason why Fuyuan Immortal said these words was to arouse dissatisfaction in the hearts of other immortals.
In any case, Qi Yuan is still a junior. He has only been an immortal for a few years, and he has also been an immortal for only a few years. Even if he has made great contributions, he should not be promoted to such a high position and control such a large power all at once.
.
After all, most of the immortals have achieved their current level of Taoism after years of practice. Therefore, in the eyes of these immortals, Qi Yuan, a descendant who is not yet a hundred years old, is indeed too young, and suddenly he is better than many of them.
Even if you have a high status, some people will definitely feel uncomfortable.
Sure enough, after Fuyuan Immortal's words fell, a burst of whispers soon sounded in the palace.
When Fu Yuan Immortal saw this, he was secretly happy, and then said: "In terms of credit, there are so many people who have made contributions to the heaven. Your Majesty rewards Zao Lord so highly, where do you put the other gods?"
"snort."
Suddenly, there was a soft hum from the side, followed by a majestic female voice: "Fu Yuan Immortal is saying that His Majesty's rewards and punishments are unfair?
I don’t know who has made great contributions but has not been praised by His Majesty. Why don’t you come forward and tell us so that we can see what kind of contributions he has made?”
Fuyuan Immortal's expression changed.
He turned around and saw that it was the Holy Mother of the Golden Spirit. He immediately frowned and felt a little embarrassed.
The Holy Mother Jin Ling usually sits in Dou Mansion and does not usually go to court. However, she had long guessed that Qi Yuan would be rewarded for his contribution and was worried that there would be trouble, so she took the time to come and have a look.
The result was not beyond her expectation. Sure enough, someone jumped out.
When the Holy Mother of Jin Ling was practicing on Jin'ao Island, she helped the leader of Tongtian Cult manage the disciples of Jiejiao Cult. Now after going to heaven, she is in charge of the 84,000 evil spirits of Dou Mansion, and she has great power in her hands.
And after several years of training, she has a very thorough understanding of these political matters, so with just one sentence, she lifted the atmosphere that Fuyuan Immortal had previously deliberately created.
After all, even if some gods feel disgusted, they dare not step out and cause trouble at this time.
What's more, the Holy Mother of the Golden Spirit has already come to the fore. She is the leader of the Jie Jiao gods. Offending her is equivalent to offending all the Jie Jiao gods in heaven. Those people really don't have the courage.
Fu Yuanxianweng suppressed the previous discussions when he saw Our Lady of the Golden Spirit with one word, and the gods in the temple became quiet again. Although they were a little angry, they did not dare to admit the accusations of the Holy Mother of the Golden Spirit.
He quickly said: "Don't talk nonsense, Mr. Doumu Yuan. When did I say that Your Majesty's rewards and punishments are unfair?"
The Holy Mother of the Golden Spirit said calmly: "Then what do you mean by preventing His Majesty from rewarding Kitchen Lord?"
Immortal Fu Yuan pondered for a moment, and then said: "I just think that Zao Lord is still young, so he might as well practice for a few more years. There is no need to promote him to such a high position so early, and to have such great power. Young people, how many years?
There is no harm in practicing and practicing.”
"Hmm."
The Golden Spirit Mother sneered disdainfully: "According to what Fu Yuan Immortal said, all the powers in heaven can be divided directly according to age, so what's the use of credit?
They are all immortals who have attained immortality. They all work hard to gain qualifications and live longer than anyone else. However, have the immortals ever thought about who will work for heaven in this case?
What's more, even though some people live long enough, they are just people living in corpses, and they actually have the nerve to say it to others. It's really a joke."
"You...don't take it out of context."
Immortal Fu Yuan was a little angry. What the Golden Spirit Mother said was too unpleasant. What is a corpse meal?
You are a senior after all, so you are disrespecting me by criticizing me in front of me!
"I took it out of context?"
The Holy Mother of the Golden Spirit glanced at the Fuyuan Immortal and said: "Heaven is in charge of everything under the operation of heaven, and the rules are strict. Your Majesty now entrusts the Kitchen Lord to take charge of the kitchen fire and food, in order to make up for the deficiencies of Heaven in this regard, and let me in Heaven
Can run better.
Immortal Fu Yuan is also an old man in heaven, can't he even see this?
Since the Immortal feels that Lord Zao is not worthy of His Majesty’s reward, then I don’t know who else is worthy of this priesthood. Why not bring it up and let us see if the Immortal’s vision is even better than His Majesty’s?”
Qi Yuan heard the words of the Golden Spirit Mother not far away and couldn't help but secretly praise them in his heart.
This uncle is really powerful. He not only questioned Fuyuan Immortal's ability, but also labeled him as contemptuous of His Majesty.
"..."
Fu Yuan Xianweng felt a little tired. He really didn't expect that the words of the Holy Mother of the Golden Spirit were so sharp. There was clearly something in them that slandered him, but she still linked her to the Jade Emperor, leaving him unable to refute.
He turned back and looked at the gods in the temple, only to find that the gods who were still discussing before were all silent. After seeing his eyes, they turned a blind eye.
He sighed secretly in his heart. He originally wanted to arouse the dissatisfaction of the gods, but in the end he overestimated them. None of these guys dared to offend the Golden Spirit Holy Mother.
As for his two allies, although they wanted to help him, they could not find a good reason to refute, so they remained silent.
After a moment of silence, Fuyuan Immortal raised his hand to the Jade Emperor and said, "But it's my fault that I didn't think carefully. Your Majesty is not as thoughtful as your Majesty. I feel ashamed."
Since he failed to instigate the gods to oppose him, and he was alone, there was no point in persisting, so he might as well just admit defeat.
The Jade Emperor nodded slightly, and did not seem to have any dissatisfaction with Fuyuan Immortal's words, and asked: "Does that Qing family think there is anything wrong with my reward to Lord Kitchen?"
The gods were silent, and no one stood up to refute.
Even the Immortal Fu Yuan was defeated. Even if some people still have some taste in their hearts, they will not stand up to seek disgrace.
Seeing that there was no objection from the ministers, the Jade Emperor said: "Since none of the ministers objected, it is obvious that they all approved my reward this time.
In this case, Mr. Zao, from now on, you will be the chef of Jiutian East and the emperor Taiyi Yuan will be the God of Dingfu. You should do your job well."
Qi Yuan quickly bowed and thanked: "I obey your order, thank you for your generous gift."
"You have made such a great contribution, and this is what you deserve."
The Jade Emperor looked at the gods in the palace and said: "The same goes for all the ministers. If you really make great contributions to the heaven, I will naturally not hesitate to reward you. I hope you will work hard in the future."
"I obey your orders."
All the gods agreed in unison. As for whether they will really work hard after returning, that is a matter of two opinions.
After all, most of the clergy positions in Heaven cannot be changed. Unless they make particularly huge achievements, they may be given a chance to be promoted.
Under normal circumstances, even if they make some merits, it will not give them much rights, but more of a reward in terms of cultivation resources.
Therefore, this inevitably resulted in the mentality of many gods to muddle along.
"Start your Majesty."
Qi Yuan did not return to the court, but bowed again and said: "The reason why this peach event can be held so smoothly is not just the credit of Wei Chen, but the result of the joint efforts of all the spiritual chefs in the Kitchen God Division
.
Therefore, Wei Chen implores Your Majesty to also provide some rewards to the kitchen god's spiritual chefs so that they can better serve the heaven in the future."
"oh?"
The Jade Emperor asked: "You take credit instead of being proud. Instead, you seek rewards for your subordinates. Yes, it's rare that you are so broad-minded. Tell me, what rewards do you want to obtain for your subordinates?"
When the gods in the palace heard the Jade Emperor's words, they immediately understood that the Jade Emperor was deliberately promoting Qi Yuan.
Those gods who were originally jealous of Qi Yuan felt envious and jealous after seeing this scene. It was a pity that they were not protected by the disciples of Jie Jiao, and they were not valued by the Jade Emperor. They wanted to ascend to the divine status.
Easier said than done.
Qi Yuan cupped his hands and said: "The affairs that Wei Chen is responsible for in the Kitchen God Department are too complicated, and I have long had the idea of selecting some gods to assist Wei Chen in his work.
I have a list here of the spiritual chefs who have performed relatively well in the Peach Club. I would like to ask your Majesty to grant them the title at your discretion, so as not to have all the affairs of the Kitchen God Division be shouldered by one person."
With that said, Qi Yuan handed the memorial he had drafted long ago to the spiritual officer in the palace and asked him to forward it to the Jade Emperor on his behalf.
The Jade Emperor took it and looked at it. It was just for the Kitchen God to confer some attributes to gods. This was not a big deal.
Qi Yuan must have considered the character of these spiritual chefs a long time ago. After all, he is selecting gods for himself. If they are of bad character, he will definitely not report them, otherwise it will cause trouble for himself.
So after just a few glances, the Jade Emperor placed the memorial on the dragon table, nodded and said: "There are not many subordinate gods in the Kitchen God Department. We should really add some subordinate gods to you, the Kitchen God. I will send one later."
People give orders and convey them.”
"Thank you, Your Majesty."
Qi Yuan bowed down again, and then stepped aside.
He was satisfied in his heart. With the help of these gods, he could use these gods to complete some of his plans and strengthen the Emei Sword Sect.
However, he did not use these gods to gain resources, so he did not use his power for personal gain. Even if someone caught him and sued him to heaven, he would not be afraid of anything.
Next, Qi Yuan stood in the court, just quietly listening to the gods reporting various things to the Jade Emperor. As for other things in heaven, he was very obedient and did not interrupt.
After the court meeting dispersed, Qi Yuan returned to the Kitchen God Division along with the spiritual official who conveyed the order.
After coming back, he immediately summoned everyone in the Kitchen God Division to gather together.
After all, such a glorious thing as conferring a title to the gods, of course all the spiritual chefs and apprentices should come out to see it, so as to stimulate their passion for practicing cooking skills.
As long as they learn cooking skills well, they will also have the opportunity to become gods under the Kitchen God Division.
