Shi Sheng's voice was loud and clear, allowing everyone present to hear him clearly.
She briefly explained the situation. Yue Yao got drunk and messed things up, tying her to Cang Lan and almost causing her to fail her ascension.
Yue Yao was a muddle-headed person to begin with and had made many mistakes in the past. But because her muddle-headed personality was quite cute and she had a good attitude when admitting her mistakes, the others didn't really dislike her.
It was only because she was suddenly so close to Cang Lan that some of the female Immortals found her an eyesore.
But they didn't expect her to make an even bigger mistake than before.
This wasn't something that could be brushed aside with a few words.
The Immortals looked at Yue Yao strangely.
"I didn't do it on purpose …" Yue Yao explained in a small voice.
"Then if I kill you and say that I didn't do it on purpose, will you come back to life and forgive me?"
"But aren't you standing here perfectly fine?" Yue Yao insisted.
Shi Sheng raised his brows. "Then what if I failed my ascension? What would you say? Say that I'm not worthy of becoming a Exalted God and that's why I failed my ascension. Isn't that your fault? "
'I can't take it anymore. I'm going to chop this female lead into pieces.'
Shi Sheng had just thought of this when he pulled out his Iron Sword.
"Qing Guan, what are you doing?" Cang Lan immediately stood in front of Yue Yao.
Shi Sheng flexed his wrists, a malicious smile on his lips. "I'm going to try and kill her. Let's see if she can forgive me."
Yue Yao trembled in fear.
She was just a Minor Immortal. How could she be a match for a Exalted God?
If Qing Guan really wanted to kill her, she wouldn't even have a chance to resist.
Yue Yao's eyes darted around a few times. Then, as if she had thought of something, her eyes lit up.
"All the Exalted Lords in the Heavenly Realm keep their Red Strings for themselves. They only give them to me when they need them. Why is yours with me?"
"Idiot."
Shi Sheng spat out these two words coldly. His figure flashed as he attacked the female lead.
Cang Lan blocked Shi Sheng. "Why don't you explain why your Red String is with Yue Yao?"
"A brain is a good thing. I hope you have one." Shi Sheng's Iron Sword swept out, forcing Cang Lan back. Then, he leaped up and landed in front of Yue Yao.
"Are you feeling guilty? You were the one who put the red string there. How can you blame me?" Yue Yao said anxiously.
Shi Sheng's Iron Sword swung down without hesitation. Yue Yao had suffered at the hands of this Iron Sword before. When she saw the cold glint of the Iron Sword, her body went limp and she fell to the ground. She watched in horror as the sword fell.
"Ugh …" A muffled groan sounded in her ears.
She was encircled in someone's arms, completely blocking her view.
"Highgod Cang Lan …" Yue Yao's voice trembled slightly. He had actually blocked the attack for her.
Shi Sheng did not expect Cang Lan to use his body to block the attack.
He was stunned for a moment, but he still pulled it out and continued stabbing.
Sending yourself to my doorstep for me to kill, it's impossible for me to be merciful.
Shi Sheng's ferocious appearance caused the onlookers to be flabbergasted.
'Heavens, this Highgod Qing Guan is too ferocious.
Why isn't Highgod Cang Lan fighting back? '
They had never seen two Highgods fight before.
'Highgod Cang Lan, don't just stand there!
Get up!
Fight back! '
No matter what the onlookers thought, Cang Lan did not resist.
Cang Lan's clothes were dyed red with blood, but he simply held Yue Yao in his arms and protected her from Shi Sheng's attack.
Shi Sheng wanted to cripple him, but with Highgod Cang Lan's strength, he was able to protect the important parts of his body, so he wasn't seriously injured.
Shi Sheng suddenly frowned and stopped.
Cang Lan turned around and looked at her coldly. "Have you vented your anger?"
"No." Shi Sheng shook his head honestly, his expression full of ridicule and arrogance. "Do you think you can write it off like this? Let me tell you, there's no way. She's the one in the wrong, so she has to pay the price. Even if you die, I won't let her off. "
'If you don't pay the price for your mistakes, you won't learn your lesson.'
'The female lead is too inexperienced and doesn't learn her lesson. She always takes other people's forgiveness for granted.'
'If you do something wrong, just say you didn't do it on purpose and you'll be fine.'
'If that was useful, why would we need the police?
Do you think the police will let you off if you say you didn't do it on purpose? '
'Idiot!'
"Don't go too far," Cang Lan growled.
"Fine, fine, fine. I'm going too far, as long as you're happy. But I don't want to let her off. What can you do about it? "Shi Sheng's lips curled into an arrogant smile.
"Qing Guan, don't forget that I'm also a Highgod." Cang Lan's tone was laced with threat.
Shi Sheng acted as if he didn't hear Cang Lan's words and replied indifferently, "So what?"
'You're a Highgod and you're awesome. Do you think you're invincible just because you've been called a Highgod for a few years?
Idiot! '
Shi Sheng's fearless and condescending attitude caused Cang Lan to be so angry that he couldn't speak.
"The Jade Emperor and Queen Mother have arrived!"
Someone shouted from outside the hall. The onlookers immediately straightened their attitude and lowered their heads to respectfully welcome the Jade Emperor and Queen Mother.
As soon as the Jade Emperor entered, he saw Cang Lan half-kneeling on the ground. His back was covered in blood, and he was protecting Yue Yao in his arms. Shi Sheng was holding a sword that was still dripping with blood. His expression was arrogant and evil.
The Queen Mother turned pale with fright. "What's going on?"
'Everything was fine when we left. Why are they fighting all of a sudden?
And Highgod Cang Lan is being bullied to this extent? '
"Highgod Qing Guan, what are you doing?" The Jade Emperor tried his best to keep a straight face, but his heart was crumbling.
'Both of them are Highgods!
Neither of them should be offended. '
"Settling a personal grudge," Shi Sheng replied calmly. The evil aura around him receded and he regained his calm.
'Personal grudge …'
The Jade Emperor choked.
'Someone, come out and tell me what's going on!'
The Jade Emperor looked at the Immortal standing closest to him. The Jade Emperor couldn't afford to offend the two Highgods, but he couldn't afford to offend three either! 'No, four!'
The Jade Emperor's glare left him with no choice but to grit his teeth and tell him what happened.
After he finished, he shrank back into the crowd, afraid that someone would cause trouble for him.
The Jade Emperor's face darkened when he heard the whole story. He didn't know that Qing Guan was one of the Red Strings Yue Yao randomly pulled.
"Jade Emperor, she's slandering me! Her Red String shouldn't have been with me!" Yue Yao probably felt more confident now that her backer was here.
The Queen Mother frowned. "Before Highgod Qing Guan descended to the Lower Realm, she had the Immortal Child pass the Red String to you. The Jade Emperor and I saw it with our own eyes. Yue Yao, how can you not remember this?"
The Jade Emperor wanted to say something, but it was too late. Besides, this was the truth.
Many people had seen Qing Guan send someone to pass the Red String to Yue Yao.
This was a rule. Although Highgods could keep the Red String for themselves, they couldn't bring it to the Lower Realm without permission.
Qing Guan had descended to the Lower Realm to experience her tribulation, so she naturally couldn't bring the Red String with her.
That was why she gave it to Yue Yao, the Moon Elder, to keep it. Who knew that she would be so careless and cause such a mess?
