Deng Chanyu followed Taibaijing Star to the tenth heaven.
In the past half year, Guiling Holy Mother and Wen Zhong had already made a relatively thorough cleaning of this area.
The war destruction caused by the demons and demon saints of the past, as well as the twelve foreclosed divines, seemed to have been completely smoothed out. What could be seen were abandoned palaces and buildings that were cleared away completely. There were countless corpses, broken armor, and shattered weapons that were effectively cleaned up.
Guiling Holy Mother's plan is fine. First, sort out the spiritual energy, then layout the basic array of Tianyu for the construction of a Tianyu prison. Finally, construct a Tianyu prison that can hold half-saints on top of the array.
This plan is absolutely correct. It's just that she has done very poorly in her first step, which is the spiritual energy sorting process. She has insufficient realm, and in order to make up for this shortcoming, she has invested a large amount of celestial resources on the tenth heaven.
All things have spirits; stones and trees can possess their own spirituality. These first, second, and tenth heavens can also be regarded as individual worlds. Since they are worlds, when spiritual energy converges together, it naturally gives rise to a world consciousness.
At the beginning, Guiling Holy Mother fed the world consciousness with celestial resources. The world consciousness was overjoyed, and there was peace and nothing happened. However, as soon as she stopped feeding celestial resources, the world consciousness immediately turned against her, which can be described as its taste being spoiled.
The world consciousness of the tenth heaven flattened Guiling Holy Mother's half-year efforts and made the environment here even worse.
Deng Chanyu shook her head firmly. In truth, taking over a mess like this is actually not as good as starting anew.
She couldn't help but look at the client, suggesting, "Let's go to the ninth heaven? Or even the tenth, eleventh, or twelfth heaven?"
Taibaijing Star shook his head hurriedly, Hou Tian had his own plans. If one thing changed, everything would have to change. The price might be negotiable, but the location couldn't be changed.
He indicated his meaning as he said, "Regardless, the ancient battlefield here has been cleaned up, and the destruction caused by the powerful Witches and Demons from the past has also been restored one by one, so it still holds some value."
Deng Chanyu nodded in understanding. The War between Wizards and Demons had happened long ago, and there were countless ghosts here that were originally killed. At the beginning, they couldn't leave their bodies. To become a Ghost Immortal, they could only search for all kinds of resources in this ancient battlefield, searching millions of times without finding anything useful. There was no such thing as finding treasures accidentally.
She previously gave a quotation for the cleanup project in the tenth heaven, which was quite extensive. Now, the preliminary work, whether it's good or bad, has at least been completed to some extent. Hou Tian wants her to repair the mess on top of this foundation according to the original quotation.
She sighed to herself in secret. The client is the most important one; since they're paying, they have the right to make requests. Receiving money means she should do the job well, which is only natural.
"Alright, although it will be a bit troublesome, it's not something we can't handle. Master Star Lord, you? Wait a minute? Why are they still here? Shouldn't they have gone back to the heavenly court?"
Deng Chanyu spotted Guiling Holy Mother and Wen Zhong from afar, feeling a bit puzzled. She turned to look at Taibaijing Star.
This matter is now in my hands, why are they still here?
"Your Majesty's meaning is to allow them to redeem themselves by making amends for their past wrongdoings." Taibaijing Star was also aware that Hou Tian used Guiling and Guiling in turn to bother each other, a tactic that was beneath the surface and seemed very petty. However, he couldn't say so directly.
He pondered for a moment and then blurted out, "In fact, the thunder department of Leisheng Puhua Tianzun is still very important here. One reason is to supervise the many celestial soldiers and generals, and the other is to deter those ghost immortals and spirits."
"Can't they be transferred away?"
"That's the thing"
"Great Tianzun really has some sway. I'll go and say a few words to them, and you, Old Star Lord, can come along too."
"Okay!"
Guiling Holy Mother, Wen Zhong, the four generals of the Magical family, Julushen, Gao Yan, and the one hundred and eight stars were all present, including the Longxiuhair star that was later banished to the ninth hell and Wu Li who used to be a high-ranking official in the old Shang dynasty. All the gods who had some connection to architecture were here. Seventy percent of them had been seen by Deng Chanyu before. For example, in Wen Zhong's Thunder Department there were even generals from the old Han state.
The four generals of the magical family were workers and guards, standing about eight or nine meters tall and all being strong laborers on construction sites. They could use their magic weapons to defend themselves against enemies, making them typical multi-skilled individuals.
Jushenshen was originally recruited by the heavenly court because he split out a path on Mount Hua with one swing of his axe, which can be considered a construction worker to some extent.
Gao Yan has a subordinate who is very skilled at bricklaying. Long Feihu likes to throw flying stones as large as grindstones, and Shang Rong, the former old minister of the Shang dynasty, here serves as a coordinating talent.
In addition to these gods, the rest are a group of celestial soldiers and generals serving as construction workers.
This construction company prepared by Hou Tian is actually quite capable, except for the problem of its leaders, there's nothing major.
Deng Chanyu said with a generous tone, "Gentlemen, most of you are old acquaintances. I won't say much more. In the coming days, please help me with your hands."
Guiling Holy Mother and Wen Zhong, as the former project managers, stayed here feeling very awkward. Neither of them spoke up.
Wen Zhong's Thunder Department has eight marshall, Deng Xin Zhang Tao, Pang Liu Gou Bi. There hasn't been an official appointment yet, but it's almost there.
Several guards who were posted at the southern gate have become marshals, and Phoenix has accomplished so many great things that he is also a marshal. This shows that Hou Tian actually has little political ability.
Having to let the new people face the old ones, making these newly ascended gods loyal to him, and maintaining a balance between superiors and subordinates.
Hou Tian has been wildly granting titles, and Phoenix's Marshal Immortal poses a threat to him, so he devalues the position of marshal. The Four Emperors influence his rule, so he grants a multitude of Emperor Immortals and True Immortals.
Despite being the peak period of the heavenly court ruling over three realms, he managed to turn it into a time of decline, with numerous high officials and titles becoming redundant.
The two generals from the Thunder Department's Eight Marshals, Gou Zhang and Bi Huan, stepped forward respectfully and bowed: "My humblest apologies to Your Majesty."
They had served under Zhang Guifang for a period of time, and it wouldn't be an exaggeration to say that they are Deng Chanyu's own people.
Deng Chanyu nodded courteously: "Gentlemen, please take your seats. Matters from the past are like so much drift smoke. I am just an ordinary, non-official celestial being, without any rank or title. Please don't disturb the order."
"The princess is our former commander, one day is our master for life!" Gou Zhang and Bi Huan, regardless of whether they were sincere or insincere, were quite excited and seemed to have found their organization."
Their bowing and greetings set off a chain reaction among the four generals of the Magical family and Julushen, each of them hurrying to bow and greet.
Deng Chanyu finally looked at Guiling Holy Mother and Wen Zhong: "Both of you are old acquaintances. Is there anything you can teach me?"
Guiling Holy Mother was never pleased with Hou Tian's side, let alone facing her.
She was now stiff-necked, refusing to speak.
Wen Zhong felt that serving this teacher was truly tiring, but had no choice but to stand up and smooth things over.
"High Lord"
Deng Chanyu cut him off before he could speak: "In the past, my father led an army to quell the rebellious bandits of Hufang, but unfortunately fell into a trap. It was Master Teacher who led the troops to come to the rescue. We are all old acquaintances; there is no need for formalities."
