Yue Yao thought about it carefully. 'That does seem to be the case …'
'How could I have forgotten such an important matter?'
Yue Yao panicked and didn't know what to do.
"Highgod Cang Lan …" She subconsciously grabbed Cang Lan.
Cang Lan patted her head to comfort her.
"Highgod Qing Guan, today is your big day. Why don't we discuss this matter later?" The Jade Emperor suggested tentatively.
Shi Sheng's gaze was as cold as ice, causing the Jade Emperor's scalp to go numb. It was as if Shi Sheng was looking at an inanimate object.
The Jade Emperor suddenly had a bad premonition.
As expected, Shi Sheng sneered, "Jade Emperor, you've helped her time and time again. What's her relationship with you?"
It was one thing for the Jade Emperor to be biased once, but Yue Yao had done so many wrong things that the Jade Emperor had glossed over.
Even this time, he had only asked Yue Yao to secretly descend to the Lower Realm without telling anyone.
None of the Immortals here knew that Yue Yao had descended to the Lower Realm or what she had done there.
The Queen Mother's eyes darkened as she glared at the Jade Emperor.
She felt that the Jade Emperor was being too lenient with Yue Yao. Although she had her suspicions, she didn't dare to voice them out.
Now that Shi Sheng had brought it up, how could she not take the opportunity to figure out what was going on?
The Jade Emperor broke out in cold sweat. 'This Highgod Qing Guan is really touching my sore spot!'
"Highgod Qing Guan, don't think you can spout nonsense just because you're a Highgod! I have nothing to do with the Jade Emperor!" Yue Yao exploded before the Jade Emperor could.
This was slandering her relationship with the Jade Emperor! How could she remain calm?
"It's not up to you to decide whether or not you have anything to do with him." 'The Jade Emperor and the Queen Mother haven't even said anything yet, yet you're in such a hurry to deny your relationship. Isn't that even more suspicious? Idiot! '
"How is it not up to me?" She was also involved, so how could her words not be up to the Jade Emperor?
Shi Sheng sneered, "Do you think your words carry more weight than the Jade Emperor's? Are you the one in charge of the Heavenly Realm, or is the Jade Emperor? "
Although the female lead was muddle-headed, she was still intelligent enough to understand what Shi Sheng was trying to say. Her expression abruptly changed as she glared at Shi Sheng angrily, "That's not what I meant! Highgod Qing Guan, please don't misinterpret my meaning!"
"Didn't you just say that I have the final say?"
"I …"
The surrounding immortals did not even dare to breathe too loudly. Today's show … might cause someone to die.
However, there were even more people who were suspicious of the relationship between Yue Yao and the Jade Emperor.
Yue Yao was merely a minor immortal in the God Realm. In the past, no one cared about her. But one day, the Jade Emperor suddenly promoted her to Yue Lao.
After that, the Jade Emperor only punished her symbolically. It was obvious that he was biased.
"Jade Emperor." The Queen Mother's face was cold. "Aren't you going to explain?"
The Jade Emperor wiped away his cold sweat and lowered his voice, "Queen Mother of the West, it's a long story. Let's go back and talk about it. Right now, we need to appease Highgod Qing Guan."
The consequences of offending a Highgod were much more serious than Yue Yao.
The Queen Mother was clear in her heart and didn't pursue the matter.
If the Queen Mother didn't pursue the matter, the others definitely wouldn't dare to ask.
The Jade Emperor sighed in relief and hurriedly gave Cang Lan a look, telling him to stop Yue Yao and not let her speak nonsense.
"Highgod Qing Guan, this matter was due to Yue Yao's incompetence. I'll remove her from the position of Yue Lao and punish her to repent at the Cliff of Reflection. What do you think?"
"And then?" The Shi Sheng raised his brows.
The Jade Emperor was dumbfounded. 'Isn't that enough?
There's still more to come … '
Yue Yao glared angrily at the Shi Sheng, but Cang Lan didn't let her speak.
'Isn't it just pulling the wrong Red String? I wasn't even affected by the Red String, yet you still want to pursue the matter?
'Isn't it just a Highgod? So what if it's a Highgod?
It's all because I have good parents and was born a Highgod. If I were like them, I wouldn't be so glorious. '
"Highgod Qing Guan, this … We'll see each other often. Why make things so tense? Once she goes to the Cliff of Reflection, Yue Yao will also be taught a lesson." The Jade Emperor emphasized the words' Cliff of Reflection '.
That place was used to punish immortals who made mistakes. In that place, one's magic power couldn't be used at all. Immortals could only endure the cold and fire.
Any immortal who went to the Cliff of Reflection would be traumatized upon hearing the words' Cliff of Reflection '.
Shi Sheng poked the ground with his Iron Sword. 'It's pointless to kill her in one go.' Shi Sheng reluctantly agreed to the Jade Emperor's suggestion.
Yue Yao was stripped of her position as Yue Lao and sent to the Cliff of Reflection to receive her punishment.
Before leaving, Cang Lan glared fiercely at the Shi Sheng.
The corners of the Shi Sheng's mouth twitched, and he returned a provocative smile.
'I'm not afraid of you!'
… …
After this incident, rumors spread in the Heavenly Realm that Yue Yao was the Jade Emperor's illegitimate daughter.
Some even said that the Jade Emperor had fallen for Yue Yao.
However, one of the parties involved was at the Cliff of Reflection, while the other didn't respond. The immortals kept guessing about this matter.
Immortals had long lives. They didn't have much entertainment aside from gossip. How could they let go of such a material?
Thus, all kinds of rumors began to spread.
Meanwhile, the Shi Sheng had already left the Heavenly Realm and arrived at the Wasteland at the edge of the Heavenly Realm.
The greatest villain in this story was Dong Jing, a fiendish god in the Great Desolation Realm.
The Great Desolation Realm was a small world. There were all kinds of things in it: humans, demonic beasts, demons … gods.
Dong Jing was a god. He was very close to becoming a high god. However, he gave up at the last moment. After causing a ruckus in the Heavenly Realm, he went to the Great Desolation Realm.
No one knew what had happened back then.
The Shi Sheng wandered around the entrance of the Great Desolation Realm for several days before he found the way in.
The Great Desolation Realm was truly a wasteland. There wasn't a single bit of greenery in sight. There were only rocks and flying sand, not to mention any signs of human habitation.
Since all directions were the same, the Shi Sheng could only choose a random direction to walk in.
"Save me … save me …"
"Save me …"
The cries for help came from a rock next to the Shi Sheng. The Shi Sheng looked up and saw something strange lying there. The cries for help were coming from there.
The Shi Sheng jumped up the rock and saw what it was.
Its body was covered with sharp spikes and barbs.
It was actually a hedgehog. Moreover, it was a very large hedgehog …
This thing could also cultivate into a demon? How mysterious.
"Save me …" When the hedgehog saw the Shi Sheng, its small eyes lit up with hope.
However, the Shi Sheng only stood at a distance. He had no intention of coming closer. "Do you know where Dong Jing is?"
"Dong … Dong Jing … You, you, why are you looking for him?" The hedgehog was obviously scared. Its body was trembling.
"I'm looking for him to eat," the Shi Sheng said calmly.
The hedgehog: "…" Is there something wrong with you? Looking for that demon to eat?
The hedgehog rolled its eyes. "I know where he is, but I can't move. You have to help me."
The corners of the Shi Sheng's eyes curled up. "Sure."
She took out her Iron Sword and slashed at the hedgehog. Before the greed in its eyes could fully emerge, its gaze was fixed on her.
"I'll help you ascend to the heavens. No need to thank me."
Motherf * cker. Even a hedgehog wants to scheme against I. Do I really look like I'm that easy to bully?

Little Fairy: Do you have a ticket?
Cherub: No, no, no.
Little Fairy: If you don't have one, I'll send you to heaven.
Cherub: … Yes, yes, yes!
