Chapter 1000 -s 948-949 The Struggle of the Six Imperials_2
These True Immortals expressed their agreement one after another, showing no objection to Pei Xuanjing nor any intention to compete for the Divine Position.
The Master of the Heavenly Court, the holder of the Six Imperial Honors, might seem highly respected and unrivaled, but in reality, it was not so.
Between Heaven and Earth, it was the will of the True Immortals that governed everything. Even after being promoted within the Heavenly Court, the Emperor of Heaven could not truly command the worship of all gods or lead the Emperor of Heaven.
According to the system they envisioned for the Heavenly Court, it should nominally be the Lord of Heaven and Earth, but in terms of actual authority, it held very little.
Therefore, this was a position that appeared glamorous, but was actually quite burdensome. Since True Monarch Shenxiao was fighting for his disciple’s cause, they did not mind agreeing.
Moreover, it was noticeable that the True Immortals were very deliberate in their words. What they agreed to was that the lord of the Great Ming Divine Dynasty could be the Central Jade Emperor, but they did not say that Zhu Houji could become the Jade Emperor.
If it came to a point where Zhu Houji became uncontrollable, they did not mind replacing him with a more obedient lord of the Divine Dynasty, the future Emperor of Heaven.
Of course, to many True Immortals this was seen as the last and reluctant option. As long as Zhu Houji wasn’t too excessive and considering he had the support of True Monarch Shenxiao, they would not press too hard.
With the Six Imperial Honorable Positions, the Emperor of the Central Jade held one, leaving the remaining five Emperor positions open for contention.
Ha, this True Monarch Shenxiao really doesn’t hold back at all – thick-skinned and black-hearted, truly a kindred spirit!
