Capítulo 9: Chapter 7: Heavenly Court Meeting

"Uncle Zhen told me," Yue told Heavenly Emperor Tian Zhu with an innocent expression on her face. As soon as her words escaped her mouth, a light noise of sudden coughing came from outside.

"Zhen you idiot!!! Come inside" Heavenly Emperor Tian Zhu let out loudly as he gazed towards the door.

"Your majesty, " A man's voice came as he entered with a glass half-filled with alcohol in his hand. There were some wet stains on the chest area of his robes and on his chin, which made it look like he had just coughed out alcohol.

"Were you the one who brought my daughter here?" Heavenly Emperor Tian Zhu asked War God Zhen as he stared at him.

"Yes, your majesty. I saw the princess in the hall looking for you. I brought her here and stayed outside to give all of you privacy" War God Zhen said innocently.

"Tell me one thing. Am I shameless in your eyes? ' Heavenly Emperor Tian Zhu asked with a slight smile on his face as he gazed at War God Zhen.

"Not at all, your majesty?" War God Zhen replied with an honest look on his face.

"Then why did you tell my cute little angel that I'm shameless? She just blew up your cover, you idiot" Heavenly Emperor Tian Zhu said to War God Zhen in a slightly louder tone.

" I didn't tell the little princess that your majesty is shameless. I just told her the definition of shameless sometime ago. Maybe the princess was talking about that. Isn't that right princess?" War God Zhen said with a wry smile on his face as he gazed towards the Princess.

"Uncle Zhen is always right! " Yue said in her cute little voice.

" Oh, Did uncle Zhen also teach you that?" Heavenly Emperor Tian Zhu asked Yue as he looked at her with a smile.

"Yup," Yue innocently nodded her head twice.

War God Zhen's face turned red as Heavenly Emperor Tian Zhu gazed at him with an amused look on his face.

"What was the definition of 'shameless' that Uncle Zhen told you?" Heavenly Emperor Tian Zhu asked his daughter Yue.

"It is when someone praises themselves through their own mouth, they are shameless" Yue replied honestly.

" Oh, is that it? " Heavenly Emperor Tian Zhu said with a clever smile on his face.

"When uncle Zhen told you that he is always right, he was praising himself on his own. Isn't he shameless as well then?" Heavenly Emperor Tian Zhu said as he started laughing loudly feeling proud of his cleverness.

" Oh right! Uncle Zhen is shameless as well!" Yue exclaimed as if suddenly struck with a realization.

"I...I should be going, I have things to do. By the way, happy birthday little guy. I'll bring your gift later in the evening." War God Zhen decided that things weren't looking good for him. He hurriedly wished Xu Liang for his birthday as he left with an embarrassed look on his face.

"What did he tell you about father? Is father always right as well?" Heavenly Emperor Tian Zhu asked Yue with a loving smile on his face.

"Uncle Zhen told me that father still acts like he is a young teenager in front of beautiful women," Yue said innocently.

"Huh…." Heavenly Emperor Tian Zhu felt at a loss of words as he heard Yue's words.

"Why did Uncle Zhen leave?" Yue further asked as she looked at her father.

"Well, he was embarrassed because you caught his shamelessness. He hurriedly left. " Heavenly Emperor Tian Zhu said as he looked at Yue.

" Why didn't you leave as well, father? Is it because you're thick-skinned just as uncle Zhen said?" Yue asked innocently.

"Zhen you bastard!!! Come back!!! " Heavenly Emperor Tian Zhu roared loudly as he cursed Zhen with a red face. It was unknown whether his face was red because of anger or because of embarrassment after hearing her daughter's words.

That memory ended as well but the incoming memories didn't stop. Other memories kept arriving. Xu Liang lived through those memories. He learned cultivation under Heavenly Emperor Tian Zhu for years. He learned Body Cultivation as well as spiritual cultivation. He was taught to use all the weapons in existence. Other than cultivation with Heavenly Emperor Tian Zhu, most of Xu Liang's time was spent with Yue and sometimes with War God Zhen who also taught him on occasions.

Heavenly Emperor Tian Zhu always praised Xu Liang's talents whenever he taught Xu Liang. His Cultivation was so fast that even Heavenly Emperor Tian Zhu was amazed. By the time Xu Liang was sixteen, he had already broken through to the peak of the saint realm. He was just a single sleep away from becoming immortal.

After spending so much time with Xu Liang and seeing the hard work he put in his Cultivation, Heavenly Emperor Tian Zhu took a decision that was enough to change the history of the Heavenly Realm.

On Xu Liang's sixteenth birthday, a special Heavenly Court meeting was held. All the Gods and Ministers of the Heavenly Realm were present in the meeting.

The Heavenly Emperor sat on the highest throne at the front of the court while others sat on lower seats in front of him. Amongst the seated ones, were all the big names of the Heavenly Realm.

Xu Liang and Yue also were in the court. Although they only stood behind Heavenly Emperor Tian Zhu.

"Heavenly Emperor Zhu. Why did you call everyone here today?" The man who was sitting in the front seat said. He looked to be in his early thirties, but just like everyone else in this Heavenly Court, he was also thousands of years old. He was called the Xuan Di, Also known as Illustrious Emperor. He was said to be the Strongest Person in the Heavenly Realm after the Heavenly Emperor Tian Zhu who ruled the Heavenly Realm.
