The Sick Heavenly Court
"What happened?"
Only then did Chang 'e run over. When she saw the Heavenly Soldier lying on the ground, she immediately covered her mouth to prevent herself from crying out.
"The death of the Heavenly Soldier is very strange. Yang Jian and I are going to report it to the Jade Emperor …"
Ye Zichen licked his lips. Chang 'e's expression froze for a moment, she had finally found a chance to go on a date with Ye Zichen.
"Okay, then you go. Business is more important."
Ye Zichen nodded with a smile. This familiar scene inexplicably moved him.
He felt like he had seen it somewhere before …
Xiao Yumei!
When she was in the modern world, she always silently supported her like this. How Xiao Yumei was back then was how Chang 'e was now.
Creak.
He clenched his fists tightly.
Back in the Modern Realm, she was always busy with trivial matters and never had a proper date with Xiao Yumei.
"Sorry, I'll make sure to give you a real date next time."
He raised his hand and pulled Chang 'e into his arms. Chang' e's face blushed. She nodded and ran away while covering her face.
"Brother, not bad!"
Yang Jian bumped him with his shoulder. Ye Zichen smiled, then pointed at the Heavenly Soldier on the ground.
"Let's deal with him first."
Soaring Heaven King Palace.
The sudden death of a Heavenly Soldier, and in such a strange manner at that, was something that had never happened in the Heavenly Courts before. Almost all the great deities in the Heavenly Court were present. The Jade Emperor sat on a chair and frowned.
"Immortals, what do you think?"
"Of course we have to investigate." The one who spoke was Lei Zhenzi, he frowned and said, "The sudden death of a Heavenly Soldier is unprecedented in the Heavenly Court. No matter where we set out from, we need to thoroughly investigate this matter. If it was done by someone, they would be able to catch the culprit. If it's a disease, we have to suppress it in advance. "
"I agree with Lei Zhenzi," said Pagoda-Bearing Heavenly King Li.
"Seconded!"
"Seconded!"
The immortals in the Heavenly Court spoke one after another. Actually, they didn't have much to say. Now that something like this had happened, other than investigating it thoroughly, there was nothing else they could do.
As for how to investigate and where to start, that was not something they could think of.
The Jade Emperor, who was sitting on the throne, also frowned deeply. The answers given by the immortals made him look even more tired.
"Yang Jian!"
"Present!" Yang Jian cupped his fists and walked to the center of the hall.
"Send this Heavenly Soldier to the Grand Supreme Elder and let him see if it's caused by an illness."
"Understood!" Yang Jian lifted the Heavenly Soldier on the ground and left the Soaring Heaven King Palace.
"Li Jing!"
"Here!" Li Jing cupped his fists and walked out.
"I'll leave this matter to you. Report to me if there's any progress."
"Understood."
Pagoda-Bearing Heavenly King Li returned to his seat, and the Jade Emperor nodded calmly.
"That's it. Disperse. Oh, right, Celestial Venerable Nameless, stay behind. "
After the deities left, only Ye Zichen and the Jade Emperor remained in the hall. He thought that the Jade Emperor wanted to ask about the situation at that time, but who would have thought …
"How's the progress?"
Ye Zichen blinked in confusion, then heard the Jade Emperor speak up.
"Didn't you promise to give me a feast for my eyes? It's almost time for half a month."
Who would have thought that the Jade Emperor would only think of enjoying himself after such a huge incident had happened?
Ye Zichen knitted his eyebrows. No wonder Taibai Jinxing's comments about the Jade Emperor were so terrible. I thought that Taibai Jinxing had a grudge against the Jade Emperor and was intentionally slandering him. It seems like the Jade Emperor has truly gotten used to a peaceful life and has already smoothed out his edges.
"Shouldn't the Jade Emperor be thinking about the cause of the Heavenly Soldier's death?"
"What's there to think about? There will naturally be results after Old Lord Taishang and Li Jing investigate," the Jade Emperor acted like he didn't care, then raised his eyebrows. The Jade Emperor acted as if he didn't care. He raised his eyebrows and said, "I'm more concerned about that visual feast."
"It definitely won't disappoint you," Ye Zichen's tone was rather cold.
However, the Jade Emperor nodded with a smile as if he didn't notice the change in his tone, "That's for the best.
"That's for the best. If this emperor is satisfied, this emperor will reward you handsomely."
"Mhmm!" Ye Zichen nodded. He didn't want to continue talking with the Jade Emperor, who only knew how to enjoy himself. "Time is of the essence. I have to go and supervise the fairies' training."
"Go, go!"
Ye Zichen was in a rather bad mood after leaving the Cloudy Palace of the Golden Arches.
Ye Zichen felt like he saw the shadow of those muddle-headed emperors from the Jade Emperor's past dramas.
If this continues, then the Heavenly Court will be destroyed in my hands sooner or later, just like in the dramas.
Yang Jian had just returned from Old Lord Taishang's place. When he saw Ye Zichen walk out of the hall, he smiled.
"Bro, why did you come out?"
"The deities have already left, and the Jade Emperor has gone to the Immortality Peach Garden. You don't need to report to him anymore," Ye Zichen replied indifferently.
Yang Jian couldn't help but raise his eyebrows when he noticed Ye Zichen's strange expression.
"What happened? Did something happen?"
"Nothing …" Ye Zichen shook his head. "What did Old Lord Taishang say?"
"Old Lord Taishang couldn't give me an answer immediately, so he told me to leave him there. But from his initial analysis, it shouldn't be man-made, "Yang Jian answered honestly.
"If it's not man-made, then could it be poison?" Ye Zichen frowned.
"Who knows? Don't worry about it so much. I'll just tell you immediately when Old Lord Taishang says anything," Yang Jian put his arm around Ye Zichen's shoulder with a smile.
Yang Jian put his arm around Ye Zichen's shoulder with a smile.
"Brother, what have you been doing in my backyard all this time? The Seven Fairies go there every day, and they're even playing songs. What the hell are you researching this time!? "
"A visual feast prepared for your Jade Emperor."
Ye Zichen replied weirdly. At that moment, he suddenly regretted making a girl band. If he really did it, then the Jade Emperor might just get even more out of line.
"A feast for the eyes …" Yang Jian's eyes lit up and he said, "Can you let me enjoy it?"
"You saw it when you were in the Modern Realm. Don't talk about it, go back. It's almost time. I have to remind those fairies. Otherwise, if the Jade Emperor isn't satisfied, all of you will be punished. "
"You're right. Let's hurry back."
When Ye Zichen returned to the manor, he went straight to the backyard. However, he did not go to watch the dance of the seven fairies. Instead, he was thinking about the Jade Emperor and the Heavenly Court.
The Heavenly Court was really too comfortable. He could feel it in the past few days.
As one of the giants of the Three Realms, no one dared to provoke him. All of the deities were rather lazy about their duties, and did not feel nervous at all.
Indulging in pleasure, neglecting their duties …
It's fine if it was a peaceful year, but the demons were currently eyeing the Three Realms, and might launch a large scale attack at any time.
If this continues, then the Heavenly Court might be the first to fall.
All of a sudden, Ye Zichen hesitated on whether he should continue with his plan. The mission the system gave him was to let the Heavenly Court do whatever they wanted, but …
Dingdong.
At that moment, the phone on the chair rang.
