After leaving the Merit Divine Horse Heavenly Palace, Xuanqing Star Lord did not return to his dojo, nor did he descend to the Lower Realm. He wandered within the Celestial Court, preoccupied with the situation of the Merit Immortals.
Although he chose to trust Merit Suppressing God Heavenly Monarch, it was difficult for him to stay calm without definitive news.
Any loss of a Merit Immortal would make his heart bleed.
Merit Immortals cannot be replaced. At least, the Heavenly Tao Immortal Book in his possession cannot replace them. Moreover, each Merit Immortal was carefully selected by him and had established a good relationship with him.
Unnoticed, Xuanqing Star Lord arrived at the East Celestial Gate.
The Celestial Court has eight Celestial Gates, each formed from great destiny, able to connect All Heavens and Myriad Realms, as well as resist foreign invasions.
