The magical race withdrew humbly from the heavenly court. In fact, before Qin Feng took the stage, many had already visited the magical realm, believing themselves to be eloquent and persuasive—yet all of them had suffered significant defeats before the magical lords, including Xi Xi and Tao Tao. After thoroughly understanding the full circumstances, both Xi Xi and Tao Tao expressed profound admiration for Qin Feng and regretted not having joined him in defeating the magical forces. They pledged to bring them along next time such an opportunity arose. To this, Qin Feng expressed the utmost contempt. "This isn't news anymore. Several of the kings remained silent, while the others watched with amusement, waiting for Sakhtos to speak next. Though they were allies of the Crystal King—having jointly burned incense and severed chicken heads in alliance—they had always treated such oaths as mere formalities when their own interests were at stake. The Crystal King suffered heavy losses during its campaign to invade Earth. Sakhtos' resentment toward the Celestial Court is understandable; as for the others, they merely showed a faint sense of indignation. It was precisely because of this that a delegation had been sent to negotiate with the Celestial Court, rather than directly challenging it. "Ladies and gentlemen, we must make adjustments," Sakhtos declared with passion. "The Celestial Court has been so arrogant, treating us as if we were nothing. Can you bear this?" Silence fell. After a long pause, someone finally spoke: "I too feel that sending a negotiation delegation was rather hasty." "Saktos was thrilled—finally, someone was standing with him, speaking up for him. The person continued, "Look at my delegation: not a single royal-level figure, just a few general-level officers and a group of warrior-level champions. The heavenly realm would surely look down upon them. So, from the very beginning, we've been mistaken." Saktos frowned—this sounded a bit off. Then the speaker added, "To gain recognition from others, one must first recognize oneself. Therefore, I propose that the second delegation be led personally by Wang Wang of Jing Wang Star, Saktos. Will the heavenly realm now dare to overlook them?" The suggestion immediately won widespread approval. While they clearly lacked the spirit of unity in times of shared hardship, they certainly excelled at making others feel abandoned when their own fortunes declined. Sakto's face turned the color of liver, a hue entirely unworthy of a noble of his standing—so, from the very beginning, his plan had been to make a grand spectacle of this matter, even to the point of turning it into a full-blown crisis, so that he might reap benefits from the turmoil. Now it seemed, everyone was sharp, and achieving one's own goals was no easy task. "Since all of you have agreed upon this course of action, I shall reluctantly make the journey to the Heavenly Realm. I simply cannot believe they will treat me any differently than they treated my previous envoy," he said with unwavering confidence. Unbeknownst to him, Qin Shao's greatest pleasure was in stepping on people, and the more prestigious the person, the more satisfying it felt. At the Hall of Heaven, two eager palace attendants now stood behind Qin Feng, constantly flustered and making courtly efforts to please him. These two—Chen Xi and Chen Jie—were as obsequious as they came, and had nearly driven Qin Shao mad. In truth, his intention was simple: he only needed one maid, and Qingya was entirely capable of fulfilling that role. Kei Qingya disagreed with everything, and thus ended up with just these two eunuchs. With an expression of utter disdain, Qin Shao said, "You two, I'm not at all opposed to having you serve as free employees here. But could you possibly do it a bit more professionally?" Tai Hua, his brother, beamed with delight, "How exactly would that be more professional?" "Indeed, Qin brother, please feel free to suggest anything you'd like—we'll certainly follow your instructions." The tall, handsome young man added. These two had been dismissed from the very beginning and now, after all this time, still felt frustrated. Of course, they were eager not to miss this opportunity. Qin Shao spoke seriously, "This is the Hao Tian Palace. Though I may not be the head here, I am at least the personal disciple of the Hao Tian Emperor—equivalent to a crown prince or even a prince in status. You should therefore strive to be more professional." "How exactly would that be more professional?" "At the very least, you should remove the unseemly article from within your trousers—then you'd truly be doing it professionally." "He smiled and said, 'What's wrong with you two staring at me? Cutting off that part is the very basic requirement for becoming an eunuch. What's wrong with what I said?' The two of them grew increasingly red-faced; if they hadn't been outmatched, they would have united to give him a proper dressing-down. 'If you don't want to stay, then go on back. We don't need you two here, and I personally find you both rather obtrusive,' he continued to criticize them. At that moment, Qingya, dressed in a pale pink gown, walked in, her voice soft and delicate, saying, 'Why are you still lounging here? The second batch of representatives from the magical realm have already arrived at the heavenly court, demanding to see the Jade Emperor and making a great fuss.' Qin's eyes widened. 'What? They dare send representatives over? It's outrageous! Did they think I was too lenient last time when I beat them up, and that they didn't take it seriously?' The former beautiful Inspector shrugged and said, "Then I really don't know. It's said this delegation is much stronger and more courteous than last time—indeed, they've left our reception staff just as overwhelmed. Isn't that just passing the buck again?" To showcase their capabilities before Qin Shao, the two young men exchanged glances and stepped forward. "Qin brother, last time you handled them. This time, why not let us take the lead?" "You're sure you can manage?" he said with a dismissive tone. The rarely handsome young man slapped his chest. "If you can do it, how can we not?" "Yes, Qin brother," the one with the blossoming charm said firmly, "just wait for our good news—we're certain we'll succeed." After a moment's thought, he realized it was indeed unnecessary to handle everything himself. It was beneficial to develop the younger staff. So he nodded. "Very well. This matter is yours. Just don't let me down." "Don't worry, we'll only make you proud." After the two had hurried off, he casually asked, "Yaya, what's the background of this so-called negotiation team?" Qingya replied, "King Sakatos of Crystal Planet is leading the team, and as for the others..." Before she could finish speaking, Qin Shao had already widened his eyes in alarm, "Oh no, those two are definitely going to suffer.
