Journey to the West: I have Nine Golden Crows Inside Me-Chapter 1610: One thousand fifty-five Queen Mother_2
Chapter 1610: One thousand fifty-five Queen Mother_2
Filled with indignation, the attitude of the Great Divine Transcendents naturally wasn’t great. The experts from North Kunlun and West Kunlun gathered together, loudly venting their anger, clamoring to go to the Qilin Clan to demand an explanation.
"Do not be noisy!"
"The Qilin Clan wouldn’t split Mount Kunlun for no reason; there must be some deeper meaning behind this, or perhaps it was the decision of the divine beast itself."
"With all this noise, if you anger the divine beast, even our master cannot save you."
"You must know, in front of our master, the face of the divine Qilin holds much greater weight than ours. Without a just cause, our master would not trouble the divine beast for us."
"Given our master’s nature, he might even implicitly allow the divine beast to teach you a lesson."
Just as the Great Divine Transcendents were about to set off, a majestic female voice rang out, and then, a peerless goddess with an elegant and dignified demeanor appeared from the void, standing in front of everyone.
"We have seen Queen Mother Majesty!"
Seeing the newcomer, even though all present were Great Divine Transcendents, none dared to neglect her and all stopped in their tracks to pay their respects earnestly.
The person was none other than the ruler of West Kunlun, the true and great Queen Mother Majesty.
Queen Mother, with her title including "Queen Mother," shows her status is no less than that of a Heavenly Queen, being the foremost among celestial female immortals personally sealed by the Taoist Ancestors, and also one of the supreme beings of Heaven and Earth.
Being designated by the Taoist Ancestors as the leader among celestial female immortals highlights the exceptionality of Queen Mother.
Thus, even among the congregation of Great Divine Transcendents, the power of Queen Mother is among the top, having stepped into the realm of Sub-Saints long ago.
In the vast expanse of Mount Kunlun, apart from the Primordial Heavenly Sovereign, the strongest surely is the Queen Mother. Moreover, her position in Mount Kunlun is only second to that of Primordial Heavenly Sovereign, as the ruler of West Kunlun.
However, even though the Queen Mother is just the ruler of West Kunlun, not only Great Divine Transcendents from West Kunlun, but even those reclusive ones from North Kunlun also implicitly regard her as their leader.
In a sense, the power wielded by Queen Mother in Mount Kunlun has already surpassed that of the Primordial Heavenly Sovereign. It’s just that she has always kept a low profile, rarely appearing in the Prehistoric World, thus causing all beings of Heaven and Earth to unconsciously overlook this supreme being of the Prehistoric World.
Of course, the low profile of Queen Mother is not without reasons related to the Primordial Heavenly Sovereign deliberately downplaying her presence. After all, the very face-conscious Primordial Heavenly Sovereign does not want people to know that within Mount Kunlun, there is someone whose power surpasses his.
"Majesty speaks truth; it was our lapse of composure."
Having been chastised by Queen Mother, the Great Divine Transcendents did not become angry but instead reflected on themselves.
The people revered Queen Mother not only for her strength but also for her unique status.
In the Prehistoric World, Queen Mother is undoubtedly a very special existence, possessing significant authority but never having exercised it. This action earned her the friendship of many goddesses of the Prehistoric World, and even the past two Heavenly Queens became close sisters with her.
Queen Mother is indeed the leader of the female immortal celestials, which is one of the most important authorities for a Heavenly Queen, but controlled by an outsider. Naturally, this is uncomfortable for the Heavenly Queen who wishes to reclaim this authority.
But in the Prehistoric World, who would dare to strike against Queen Mother? Another celestial male immortal designated by the Taoist Ancestors, Dong Wang Gong, has already fallen. If the leader of the female immortals were to also fall, wouldn’t that turn the Taoist Ancestors into a joke?
One appointed and one perished, does the Taoist Ancestors still want face? Thus, due to the fall of Dong Wang Gong, the status of Queen Mother became even more special, and to move against her would be to challenge the authority of the Taoist Ancestors.
This is also the main reason why the Primordial Heavenly Sovereign can tolerate the existence of this powerful neighbor. Her background is too significant; truly, she cannot be provoked.
Otherwise, do you think it’s because Queen Mother is too inconspicuous and honest that the Primordial Heavenly Sovereign has not taken action against her? This would be laughable, as any powerful being would not allow a person who poses a threat to reside close by, regardless of whether this person is harmful or not. fɾeewebnoveℓ.co๓
The low profile of Queen Mother can be said to align with the thoughts of many, and hence she has earned friendships.
With a significant background, wide connections, and strong power, isn’t this the natural leader? Naturally, Queen Mother has become the leader of the reclusive Great Divine Transcendents in Mount Kunlun, and is deeply respected by them.
It can be said, they might not listen to the words of the Primordial Heavenly Sovereign, but the words of Queen Mother, they would consider no matter what.
"Go to the Qilin Clan and inquire. See what their intentions are; after all, they are the auspicious creatures of Heaven and Earth with a divine beast presiding. It’s better to avoid a conflict if possible."
"Additionally, when visiting the Qilin Clan, you must show respect. Sacred beasts suppress the four corners of Heaven and Earth, possessing great Merit for all beings. As disciples of the Mystic Sect, we must not show disrespect,"
"Otherwise, even if the sacred beasts don’t take any action, our teacher will definitely scold us harshly upon finding out."
Queen Mother of the West understands the Primordial Heavenly Sovereign all too well; usually, she would personally handle matters concerning Kunlun Mountain, never relying on others. Yet, this time she allowed them to step forward, which was highly unusual and definitely indicated some underlying issues.
Thus, the normally reclusive Queen Mother of the West personally emerged from seclusion this time, leading the team to the Qilin Clan for fear that conflicts might erupt between her group and the clan.
As someone who merged with the Tao, Taoist Ancestors naturally boasted a character beyond reproach, possessing a truly selfless side. Therefore, if conflict were to occur with the Qilin Clan, Taoist Ancestors would most likely not take personal sides and stand more on the side of the sacred beasts.
Even if Taoist Ancestors weren’t completely selfless, in terms of relationships, the sacred beasts were closer to them.
The sacred beasts are also a part of the Heavenly Dao, while they are merely named disciples of Taoist Ancestors, not even truly acknowledged as such. Clearly, the relationship between the sacred beasts and Taoist Ancestors is closer.
"Her Majesty stepping forward is naturally more fitting than us."
Hearing Queen Mother of the West say this, everyone was pleased and also secretly relieved.
Although they were not afraid of the sacred beasts, it was not necessary for the sacred beasts to fear them either.
Although the sacred beasts lacked freedom, they possessed the strength to turn the tables. Should the sacred beasts be truly provoked, a mere flip of the table by them would necessitate their departure from the cardinal points, causing immediate collapse of the Prehistoric World and endangering the survival of Heaven and Earth.
Merit and such are all illusory; it is only the method of mutual destruction that is real. Even if the sacred beasts accrued great achievements, the great Divine Transcendents of the Mystic Sect might not care. But the power of the sacred beasts to destroy heaven and obliterate earth was enough to make many hesitate and tread carefully.
The real world is often cruel; there isn’t such a thing as just retribution for good and evil, and merit isn’t actually that important; instead of relying on ephemeral merit, it would be better to focus on enhancing one’s power.
After all, only true strength matters; everything else is illusory.
...
"The reaction of the Primordial Heavenly Sovereign is indeed swift."
Deep within the earth, the sacred beast Qilin sensed the movements of Queen Mother of the West and others, and couldn’t help shaking his head. He thought the Primordial Heavenly Sovereign would personally appear, but this is it?
It was just Queen Mother of the West and others, so naturally, there was no need for the sacred beast Qilin to show himself; seeing this, he shook his head and closed his eyes again.
He did not anticipate any unexpected incidents this time, as he had already seen Jiang Chen approaching this place. The sacred beast Qilin believed Jiang Chen could properly resolve today’s matters without his intervention.
"Mystic Sect’s Great Transcendents, along with several Dao friends, have come to pay respect to the sacred beast, hoping for an audience with the sacred beast Qilin."
Outside of Southern Kunlun, Queen Mother of the West led a group of Great Divine Transcendents, bowing from afar.
"So it’s Queen Mother of the West who has arrived, please, come in,"
Within Southern Kunlun, an elderly man with white hair came out, greeting them with a smile on his face.
This was the second elder of the Qilin Clan, a mighty being from the ancient era, and one of the few remaining old ancestors of the Qilin Clan with the cultivation of a Sub-Saint.
Since the sacred beast Qilin did not appear, the only one within the Qilin Clan with the power and status to match Queen Mother of the West was this old Qilin.
"Greetings to my fellow Dao friend!"
In the practice of Tao where the accomplished are honored, although the Qilin Clan has an ancient lineage, Queen Mother of the West and her company treated him as an equal due to their comparable strength.
"No need for formalities, no need at all. May I know what brings Queen Mother of the West and others to our Qilin Clan?"
Feigning ignorance, the third elder of the Qilin Clan politely inquired.
