Chapter 252: Chapter 209 Nuwa Visits Taiyin
This merit is not the same as the one generated when Emperor Jun established the Heavenly Court and conferred the title of Star God, it is Nuwa’s own merit.
When she conferred the Star Gods in the past, Nuwa did not perceive any opportunity.
Thinking of this, Nuwa no longer hesitated, put away the Red Embroidery Ball in her hand, and left Feng Qi Mountain.
She passed through the South Heavenly Gate and stood in front of the Palace of the Polestar, softly saying, “Demon Emperor, Nuwa comes to visit.”
In the Palace of the Polestar, Emperor Jun sat upright on the Law Throne, and upon lifting his eyes, he saw Nuwa standing outside the door.
His divine sense moved, and the grand doors of the Palace of the Polestar slowly opened.
“Wa Emperor, please come in.”
The voice of Emperor Jun emanated from within the Palace of the Polestar.
Nuwa did not hesitate at all and directly passed through the grand doors into the Palace of the Polestar.
Before Nuwa could speak, Emperor Jun preemptively said.
“So it seems my opportunity lies with the Wa Emperor.”
Upon hearing Emperor Jun’s words, Nuwa could not help but be slightly dazed, incredulously saying, “Could it be that the Demon Emperor already knows?”
Emperor Jun shook his head, continuing, “Not long ago, my divine sense stirred, perceiving an opportunity related to me.”
“But even though I used the River Map and Luo Book, I couldn’t calculate what this opportunity was, nor did I know where it was.”
“The moment Wa Emperor appeared in front of the Palace of the Polestar, I knew then that my opportunity was with the Wa Emperor.”
“As for what this opportunity is, I have still not calculated it.”
Upon hearing this, Nuwa could not help but feel emotional about Emperor Jun’s immeasurably deep cultivation realm, barely a moment had passed since the opportunity within the Red Embroidery Ball had appeared, and already Emperor Jun had sensed it.
Emperor Jun looked at Nuwa, continuing, “It seems, Wa Emperor, you should know what this opportunity is, why not tell me?”
“This visit to the Demon Emperor is precisely for this matter, which is not only an opportunity for the Demon Emperor but also an opportunity for me,” Nuwa said calmly.
“Oh? Concerning our mutual opportunity, I wonder what it could be?” Emperor Jun inquired again.
Nuwa did not speak, with a thought, the Innate Top-Grade Spirit Treasure, the Red Embroidery Ball, appeared before her.
“This opportunity lies within the Red Embroidery Ball, please have a look, Demon Emperor.”
After speaking, Nuwa controlled the Red Embroidery Ball to cross the thirty-three steps, arriving before Emperor Jun.
Emperor Jun, looking at the Red Embroidery Ball before him, was reminded of the words spoken by Hong Jun during the third sermon in the Purple Cloud Palace when he bestowed the Red Embroidery Ball to Nuwa: the opportunity contained within the Red Embroidery Ball.
Is the opportunity about to manifest now?
Moreover, looking at the Red Embroidery Ball before him, Emperor Jun also recalled a legend from a previous life and had already made a guess.
Emperor Jun reached out and took the Red Embroidery Ball, his Divine Sense probed into it, encountering no resistance.
After a long while, Emperor Jun withdrew his Divine Sense, internally emotional: Indeed, it is a celestial marriage.
He gently tossed the Red Embroidery Ball, which then landed in front of Nuwa.
Nuwa, her divine sense moving, collected the Red Embroidery Ball and then looked towards Emperor Jun, asking, “I wonder what the Demon Emperor thinks about the matter of celestial marriage.”
After pondering for a moment, Emperor Jun said.
“Celestial marriage, although intended as a marriage for the Heavenly Emperor, it actually serves Perfecting the Heavenly Dao, the Heavenly Realm, and even the Heavenly Court, bringing forth merit from the Heavenly Dao.”
Nuwa nodded upon hearing this.
“However, with celestial marriage as the pivot, subsequently as the Heavenly Emperor, the Heavenly Empress will be closely related to me in weal and woe, sharing the responsibilities and retributions of the Heavenly Court,” Emperor Jun continued.
“Wa Emperor, how do you view the matter of celestial marriage?”
“If this matter benefits in perfecting the Heavenly Dao and obtaining merit, should the Demon Emperor desire it, I will fully support it,” Nuwa stated looking at Emperor Jun.
Celestial marriage concerns Emperor Jun, the Heavenly Emperor, and is not something Nuwa could decide on her own.
Whether in the Demon Clan or in the Heavenly Court, Emperor Jun holds absolute authority; even as a Saint’s disciple, Nuwa can’t sway his decisions.
A significant reason why such a situation has formed, Nuwa knew, was due to Emperor Jun’s power.
Hearing Nuwa’s words, Emperor Jun fell into contemplation, pondering the implications brought forth by celestial marriage.
If a celestial marriage is initiated, it brings along beings who will share fortune and misfortune, advancing and retreating with him.
The downside is the entanglement of karma and fate, added responsibility and concern.
The path he walks is not that of emotionless, ruthless ways.
The benefit is having beings to share the complex karma and fate of the Heavenly Court, allowing him more ease.
Perfecting the Heavenly Dao is indeed the duty of a Heavenly Emperor.
Thinking this, Emperor Jun made up his mind, straightforwardly declaring, “As the Heavenly Emperor of the Heavenly Court, it is proper for me to perfect the Primordial Heavenly Dao; the matter of celestial marriage needs to be settled soon.”
“After all, Wa Emperor your time is extremely precious, although this is an opportunity, unfortunately, it’s not the opportunity from the Hongmeng Purple Qi, likely insufficient for attaining sainthood on its own,” Emperor Jun said with a sense of regret.
“What the Demon Emperor said is profound. After the matter of celestial marriage concludes, I shall return to Feng Qi Mountain, continuing the comprehension of Hongmeng Purple Qi,” Nuwa concurred.
“Now that the matter of celestial marriage has been set, the candidate for Heavenly Empress also needs to be swiftly determined,” Emperor Jun stated.
Hearing Emperor Jun’s words, Nuwa couldn’t help but frown, then spoke.
“At present in the Primordial, none among all lives has a cultivation realm comparable to the Demon Emperor; they can only be considered similarly matched in terms of heritage and identity.”
Nuwa said this while thinking about the beings in the Primordial who in terms of heritage or identity are comparable to Emperor Jun.
“The Queen Mother of the West, the first strand of pure Taiyin energy formed from nature, matches with you, nurtured from the Sun Star in a Yin Yang Union.”
