Chapter 194 The Curtain-Rolling General
Meanwhile, the Giant Spirit God hurriedly returned to the Heavenly Realm.
He's not stupid either.
After what happened at Meishan, he naturally saw through it.
The Heavenly Emperor Haotian was actually quite concerned about his nephew Yang Jian.
That's why no more troops were sent to suppress the demons of Meishan.
Soon, the Giant Spirit God arrived at Haotian's residence in the Heavenly Court.
As soon as he appeared, a beam of light appeared not far away.
"stop!"
The man blocking the way was clad in golden armor, with a kind face and a touch of majesty. He was none other than the Curtain-Rolling General, a close guard responsible for protecting the Jade Emperor's palace.
Upon seeing the Curtain-Rolling General, the Giant Spirit immediately bowed deeply.
"Greetings, General!"
General Rolling Curtain glanced coldly at the Giant Spirit God, his expression full of contempt and disdain.
General Curtain was well aware of the Giant Spirit's previous achievements.
He was first defeated by Chen Changsheng of the human race at Guanjiangkou.
He then led troops to besiege the demons of Meishan, but was defeated and forced to retreat.
It was precisely because of this setback that...
The Giant Spirit God was just demoted by Haotian to guard the South Heavenly Gate.
"Djinn God."
"Why are you here at His Majesty's palace instead of on duty at the South Heavenly Gate?"
"What is the punishment for desertion of duty?"
Upon hearing the curtain's question, the giant spirit's face was filled with bitterness and helplessness.
The cultivation levels of these two generals might not be considered top-tier in the Heavenly Court.
However, his status and position are extraordinary.
Because of his close relationship with Haotian, he held a special position in the Heavenly Court and could be considered one of Haotian's favorites.
Faced with such an existence, how could the Giant Spirit God possibly be negligent?
Then, he quickly bowed to the general in charge of rolling up the curtain and said:
"General Rolling Curtain, it is not that I have deserted my post, but there is a matter of great importance that I must report to His Majesty immediately!"
"Oh!"
The Curtain-Rolling General chuckled coldly and said:
"You've already been demoted to guard the South Heavenly Gate, what important matter do you have to report?"
"this……"
The giant spirit was taken aback, then looked at the Curtain-Rolling General with a pleading expression and said:
"General, I...I really have something extremely important to report to His Majesty immediately!"
"I hope the general can go and report this on my behalf."
Seeing the Giant Spirit God's earnest expression, a subtle glint of surprise flashed in General Curtain's eyes.
He looked down on the Giant Spirit God.
However, if it is truly important, it is not appropriate to neglect it.
After a moment's thought, General Curtain-Roller came to his senses, unexpectedly rolled his eyes at the Giant Spirit, and then replied:
"You shall wait here."
"Please allow me to go in and announce your arrival!"
Upon hearing this, the Giant Spirit God secretly breathed a sigh of relief and nodded vigorously, saying:
"well!"
"Thank you for making this trip, General!"
General Rolling Curtain didn't seem to care what the Giant Spirit God said, and turned to head towards Haotian's palace.
Meanwhile, inside the imperial palace.
Haotian was cultivating with his eyes closed.
The Heavenly Court was newly established, and although it nominally ruled over the Three Realms, various forces were deeply entrenched, and there were not many truly powerful figures who could awe the surrounding areas.
Therefore, Haotian wanted to further improve his cultivation.
Only by becoming stronger here can he truly awe the Three Realms.
Just then, a series of hurried footsteps suddenly came from outside the palace.
"Um?"
Hearing the noise, Haotian slowly opened his eyes, looked directly at the Curtain-Rolling General, and asked:
"What happened? Why are you in such a hurry?"
The Curtain-Rolling General bowed respectfully to the Emperor and then reported:
"Your Majesty, the guardian general of the Southern Heavenly Gate, the Giant Spirit God, is requesting an audience."
"What?"
Haotian was taken aback and muttered to himself:
"Why does this Giant Spirit God want to see me at this time?"
Seeing this, the Curtain-Rolling General quickly added:
"Your Majesty, the Giant Spirit God says he has something very important to report to you!"
Upon hearing this, Haotian snapped out of his reverie, maintaining a calm and composed demeanor, and said:
Go!
"Bring him in."
"Yes."
Rolling Curtain bowed and acknowledged, then quickly turned and left.
Before long, General Rolling Curtain arrived outside the palace.
At this moment, the Giant Spirit God was pacing anxiously back and forth, fearing that Haotian would not see him.
Upon seeing the Curtain-Rolling General appear, the Giant Spirit God hurriedly stepped forward and asked anxiously:
"The Curtain-Rolling General!"
"How is it?"
"Does His Majesty wish to see me?"
General Rolling Curtain coldly rolled his eyes at the Giant Spirit God and spoke in a light, cold voice:
"His Majesty summons you in."
Upon hearing this, the Giant Spirit God was overjoyed. He smiled and gestured to the Curtain-Rolling General before quickly walking towards Haotian's palace.
"etc!"
Suddenly, the curtain-rolling general shouted to stop them.
"Um?"
The giant spirit paused, turned to look at the Curtain-Rolling General, and said with a puzzled expression:
"General, is there...is there anything else you require?"
The Curtain-Rolling General glanced at the curtain slightly and said:
"What urgent matter do you have to report to His Majesty?"
Upon hearing this, the Giant Spirit looked embarrassed and quickly pursed his lips, saying:
"General."
"I am truly sorry, but this matter can only be reported to His Majesty!"
"Furthermore, there are some things you, General, shouldn't want to know."
"snort!"
General Rolling Curtain snorted coldly and waved his hand impatiently at the Giant Spirit God, saying:
"Hurry up and go inside!"
Then, the Giant Spirit God didn't linger and quickly left.
Before long, the man arrived inside the palace.
At this moment, Haotian sat upright on the imperial throne, surrounded by the aura of imperial power, exuding an imposing presence without anger.
Upon seeing the giant spirit god approach, Haotian asked directly:
"Djinn God."
"I told you to guard the South Heavenly Gate properly, what are you doing here at my palace?"
Upon hearing Haotian's question, the Giant Spirit God dared not conceal anything and quickly recounted to Haotian in detail what he had seen at the mouth of the Guanjiang River.
"Oh?"
Upon hearing that Yang Jian had established the Erlang Temple and was collecting incense offerings, Haotian was slightly surprised.
After a moment of silence, he finally spoke:
"I understand."
"Oh, right..."
At this point, Haotian paused briefly, then added:
"Is there anyone else who knows about this?"
Upon hearing this, the Giant Spirit God quickly shook his head and said:
"Reporting to Your Majesty."
"Upon learning of this matter, I immediately rushed back to the Heavenly Court to report to His Majesty."
"Besides my apprentice at Guankou, no one else knows about this."
After hearing what the Giant Spirit God said, Haotian's furrowed brows relaxed, and he said calmly:
"This matter must not be known to a third party, understand?"
The giant spirit felt a chill run down his spine and immediately kowtowed:
"Understood, sir!"
Seeing this, Haotian smiled slightly, thinking that the Giant Spirit God had handled this matter cleverly.
After thinking for a moment, he added:
"You don't need to guard the South Heavenly Gate for now."
"Step down!"
Upon hearing what Haotian said, the Giant Spirit God was naturally delighted and said with great excitement:
"Yes! This subordinate takes his leave!"
After the giant spirit god left, Haotian slowly raised his hand, and an ancient and mysterious treasure mirror appeared in the air.
It was the Haotian Mirror.
Immediately afterwards, Haotian injected a stream of magical power into the Haotian Mirror, and the mirror surface rippled, quickly revealing the scene of Erlang Temple at the mouth of the Guanjiang River.
