The Golden-Armored Immortal General flew over. His voice was like a huge bell and drum, echoing in the world for a long time.
His master had just left, and Yang Jian's state of mind had yet to calm down. However, he was not in a hurry to agree. He just stood there and watched quietly, waiting for the Heavenly Soldiers and Heavenly Generals to fly closer.
However, he was thinking … What is the Jade Emperor going to do?
Is he going to pursue the matter of the Saint's previous declaration? That's unlikely. The Jade Emperor will never mention it again.
Although the Saint's declaration was made by Yang Jian, it was in the name of the Saint of the Jade Void Palace. If the Jade Emperor dared to deny it, he would be embarrassing the Saint.
Yang Jian speculated that the Jade Emperor would most likely issue a decree to reward him at this time. At the same time, he would fulfill the promise of the Celestial Court to reward the Demon-Slayer in the previous declaration.
Lü Chunyang was supported by the woman and landed at the side. Naturally, he did not have the ability to recover as quickly as Yang Jian.
Lü Chunyang said, "Brother Yang, what are you waiting for? Accept the decree. "
Yang Jian was thinking about how he should respond. When he was urged by Lü Chunyang, he smiled in his heart.
It was useless to think too much. It was better to let nature take its course.
Yang Jian pursed his lips and seemed to be disapproving of the people from the Celestial Court. Many people, including the Heavenly General, saw the subtle expression on Yang Jian's face, but they did not think much of it …
Most of the capable cultivators had no feelings for the Celestial Court.
Yang Jian was not rude. He cupped his hands at the sky like he did with Venus Taibai in the Dragon Palace.
The Golden-Armored Heavenly General also knew that Yang Jian had a deep background, was ruthless, and powerful. He did not even give face to the Jade Emperor, let alone a Heavenly General.
He opened the yellow scroll in his hand and read it aloud, "You're not allowed to be angry.
"The decree of the Celestial Court!
The disciple of the Hollow Jade Temple, Yang Jian, risked his life to eliminate demons and defend the Dao. However, this devil was originally created by Yang Jian in order to defend against the enemy. It was the cause of the disaster, so the merits and demerits of the two should offset each other.
However, although this demon started with Yang Jian, because of the schemes of others, it became a huge problem and threatened the safety of the Three Realms. Also, this devil only wreaked havoc in the North Continent and only one person died. Yang Jian's mistake could be forgiven, he had rendered meritorious service in eliminating the demon, the Celestial Court would reward him accordingly.
On the day Yang Jian receives the edict, he shall enter the Bright Hall of the Celestial Court and await the announcement of the edict. "
The Heavenly General finished reading the edict in one breath. Most of the hundreds of people around Yang Jian smiled and looked like they were watching a good show.
In the past few days, there had been rumors in the Primordial World. When Yang Jian was in the East Ocean, the Jade Emperor had reprimanded Venus Taibai for issuing a decree to Yang Jian and appointing Yang Jian as the Marshal of the Lingxiao Treasure Hall. He could be considered a high position and the commander of the Jade Emperor's personal guards.
However, Yang Jian had reprimanded and chased Venus Taibai away. He had even made a statement and asked the Celestial Court to release his mother.
The previous decree was personally issued by the Jade Emperor. It was far from comparable to the decree of the Celestial Court today. The latter was just a document issued after the "officials" of the Celestial Court had discussed.
Everyone thought, "According to Yang Jian's style, he will definitely reprimand the Golden-Armored Heavenly General to scram as soon as possible."
In fact, the Golden-Armored Heavenly General was prepared to be scolded.
Being scolded was a small matter. The Heavenly General could not offend Yang Jian too much, but he had to consider the dignity of the Celestial Court. He even had to consider the face of the Jade Emperor …
It was really a tough job.
However, the moment Yang Jian spoke, his tone stunned everyone. He was actually so friendly?
Yang Jian said, "I've troubled you to come and announce the decree. However, let me ask you something. If I enter the Bright Hall to listen to the announcement, will the Celestial Court let my mother return?"
"This …" The Golden-Armored Heavenly General deliberated for a while. He looked calm on the surface, but his heart was in turmoil.
This was a serious matter. He did not dare to speak rashly. At that moment, he was in charge of announcing the decree. He was the envoy of the Celestial Court. If he said anything wrong, the Celestial Court would not be able to extricate themselves, and his life would be over …
Suddenly, a wisp of clear air entered the Heavenly General's ears. The Heavenly General's eyes were filled with joy. He coughed and said again, "Your mother, the White Lotus Princess, has violated the heavenly rules. Naturally, the matter of your reward should be separated."
Yang Jian suddenly looked angry and reprimanded, "May I ask which heavenly rule my mother has violated!?! What heavenly rule!?! "
"As a princess of the Celestial Court, she has an affair with a mortal man. She disregards the dignity of the Jade Emperor and the face of the Celestial Court." The Golden-Armored Heavenly General answered fluently. He was full of energy and did not show any signs of weakness. "It would have been fine if the White Lotus Princess was a fairy from some heavenly palace. However, she represented the dignity of the Celestial Court. She had no choice but to punish her in public. Otherwise, how would the dignity of the Celestial Court exist? How would it be able to control the Three Realms and the Eight Desolates? "
Yang Jian was silent. The human cultivators around him could not help but nod.
This Heavenly General was not an ordinary person. His reasoning was pertinent and did not seem to be aggressive at all. It was reasonable.
Yang Jian suddenly said, "If I were to use my merit in defeating the demon this time, would I be able to make up for the crime that the Celestial Court has placed on my mother?"
"These are two matters. They cannot be considered together." The Heavenly General shook his head.
Yang Jian's voice gradually rose. "Then, let me ask you this today. How will the Celestial Court be willing to let my mother go? Let my family reunite! "
Seeing Yang Jian's display of power, the Golden-Armored Heavenly General's expression did not change. He only sighed. "If you really want to save your mother, you should even more so enter the Celestial Court. If you can make outstanding achievements for the Celestial Court, why can't you save your mother?"
Yang Jian suddenly sneered. "May I ask if Venus Taibai is speaking?"
"That's right." White smoke emitted from the Golden-Armored Heavenly General's ears and transformed into an old Daoist priest with white hair in an immortal robe. He flicked the horsetail whisk in his hand and nodded at Yang Jian with a smile. "You're indeed capable."
However, he did not feel embarrassed after being exposed.
Yang Jian snorted coldly. The expressions of the surrounding human cultivators changed slightly. They did not notice when the Heavenly General had been "replaced". If Yang Jian had not pointed it out, they would have been deceived by the old official.
"Lord Taibai Jinxing." Yang Jian's expression turned colder. He no longer had the friendliness from before. "I only want to ask one thing."
"What is it?"
"If my mother is imprisoned by the Celestial Court, but I work for the Celestial Court and get promoted! Then, do I still deserve the title of 'son of man'!?! "
Upon hearing that, Venus Taibai's expression turned bitter. He never expected Yang Jian to be so difficult to deal with.
It was one thing for the East Ocean Dragon Palace. Yang Jian had only reprimanded him with his aura, and Venus Taibai did not really bother with him.
Today, the Celestial Court had already gained the right to reason. He did not expect that this kid would be able to say such a thing. Instead, he had gained the "reason".
The surrounding human cultivators pondered for a while and felt that Yang Jian was right. The Celestial Court was too despicable. They actually used Yang Jian's mother to threaten him and make him fight for the Celestial Court.
Lü Chunyang sighed and said, "I never thought that the Celestial Court would become more and more unreasonable."
"So it's Dong Gong." Venus Taibai bowed as if he had only just seen Lü Chunyang.
Lü Chunyang was the reincarnation of East Wang Gong. This matter had once caused an uproar in the Middle Continent. Everyone present knew about it, and no one was surprised.
Yang Jian did not want this matter to become too complicated. He secretly sent a voice transmission to Lü Chunyang. The latter nodded and did not say anything.
Yang Jian said, "If Lord Taibai Jinxing can't give me an explanation today, please return to the Celestial Court to report. How can I save my mother? You guys can decide on your own. "
Just as Taibai Jinxing was about to speak, Yang Jian interrupted him with another sentence …
"Now, the Celestial Court is established by the ancestor of the Dao Sect. The Celestial Court has the Grand Supreme Elder, who is also the incarnation of the Saint of the Dao Sect. I naturally do not dare to act rashly against the Celestial Court."
Yang Jian's gaze was oppressive. It was like two sharp blades that cut through the sky!
"However! If the Celestial Court says that my mother's matter is a family matter of the Jade Emperor, I will use it as a personal matter. My mother has offended the Jade Emperor because of this matter. My uncle's anger has yet to dissipate. As his nephew, I can help him vent his anger! "
"If the Celestial Court says that this is official business, then so be it! My mother and father have only been together for more than ten years. Now, she has been imprisoned for five hundred years! How long are you going to keep her locked up!?! "
"Since it is a law of the Celestial Court, this law should also have a fixed time limit! My mother is gentle and virtuous. She has never rebelled against the Celestial Court. If she is judged unfairly, I must go to the Celestial Court to find the Jade Emperor and ask for an explanation! "
These words and sentences really made Venus Taibai speechless.
It was really difficult to distinguish between public and private matters about Yohime being imprisoned by the Celestial Court. However, Venus Taibai could not say that 'the family matter of the Jade Emperor is the official matter of the Celestial Court'. This was a taboo statement.
The Jade Emperor only commanded the Three Realms and was in charge of the Celestial Court. He was definitely not an emperor in the secular world!
For a moment, Venus Taibai had mixed feelings. She sighed softly and said to Yang Jian, "What you said, I will naturally listen to it."
Yang Jian said indifferently, "If my mother is safe and sound, my family of three will be reunited. If the Celestial Court rewards me again, I will naturally not resist like this."
Venus Taibai faintly looked at Yang Jian. What is this? Give him a slap and then give him a sweet date?
Why is this date so bitter? The Celestial Court took the initiative to reward him, but still had to look at his face …
This nephew of the Jade Emperor is really difficult to deal with. But I can't let the Jade Emperor show up in person …
Forget it.
Venus Taibai said, "I will go back to the Celestial Court to report."
"I will not see you out."
Fortunately, it was not the word 'scram'. At least it was better than the last time.
The drums sounded again. At this time, the Heavenly Soldiers and Heavenly Generals no longer had any power to speak of. None of them dared to look at Yang Jian on the ground. They rode the clouds and flew to the Thirty-three Levels of Heaven.
After the people of the Celestial Court left, the immortals around the black mountain all went forward to greet Yang Jian. They told him their surnames and Daoist titles, purely to form a good relationship with him, and then they left.
One should not hit a smiling person. Yang Jian responded to them one by one without any deliberate intention, making people feel that he was not that difficult to get along with.
After the human cultivators left, Lü Chunyang chuckled and gave Yang Jian a thumbs-up. "Brother Yang, you're so eloquent. Venus Taibai is good at persuading people. He's famous in the Three Realms, but you made him unable to open his mouth. Haha!"
"I'm just in the right," Yang Jian said calmly. Then, he looked at the beautiful woman standing beside Lü Chunyang and bowed. "Greetings, Sister-in-law."
Lü Chunyang's face immediately turned the color of a pig's liver. The woman smiled and bowed to Yang Jian. She smiled but could not speak.
"Don't, don't fool around." Lü Chunyang looked bitter. "Brother Yang, you're pushing me into a pit of fire. This is my master, not your sister-in-law!"
"Oh?" Yang Jian was stunned.
After he saved Lü Chunyang, he thought that the two of them were deeply in love and had gone through life and death together. He was extremely impressed. After that, he rushed into the black fog that filled the sky to fight the demons. He really did not hear Lü Chunyang calling her master softly.
The woman snorted softly. "I've long expelled you from the sect."
