He looked up at the Jade Emperor and Queen Mother who were sitting at the very top.
The moment they looked at each other, they both smiled somewhat unnaturally.
"You are looking for your uncle, is there something wrong?" The Jade Emperor took the initiative to break the silence, his tone gentle, as if he had become a different person.
When everyone heard the word "uncle", their expressions became strange.
Even Chenxiang blinked blankly, wondering if the Jade Emperor was also enduring humiliation like his uncle?
But he is the Jade Emperor!
Yang Jian ignored the Jade Emperor's overtures and said expressionlessly, "Aren't you asking someone to arrest me? Why are you asking me now?"
"Who is spreading misleading orders? I clearly asked someone to invite you here." The Jade Emperor pretended to be angry and said at the end, "But I called you here because I really have something to tell you."
A sneer appeared on Yang Jian's lips.
He didn't believe a single word of the Jade Emperor's pretentious words.
But he was very curious about what lies the other party could make up.
Seeing that he remained silent, the Jade Emperor winked at the Queen Mother beside him.
The Queen Mother smiled and said, "The matter of Heavenly Law is of great importance and cannot be decided overnight. However, Heaven has been established for a long time, and the original Heavenly Law is rotten and outdated, and it has also given rise to many things that we feel we owe."
Noticing Yang Jian's impatient expression, she continued, "After consultation between the Jade Emperor and me, and incorporating the opinions of the gods in heaven, we have drawn up a new heavenly law and sealed it under Mount Hua."
The Jade Emperor nodded and said: "You can go and split Mount Hua, so that my niece and the new Heavenly Law can be born together."
The kind words from the two made Yang Jian hesitate for a moment.
Chen Xiang was overjoyed and said, "Uncle, can my mother be saved?"
"Haha, you are Yang Chan's son, right? You are indeed a handsome man, just like your uncle," the Jade Emperor stroked his beard and smiled, "Your mother is naturally fine. Speaking of which, you still have to call me grandpa."
The Queen Mother also followed suit and gave a few compliments.
Chenxiang's face was full of surprise.
All he wanted was for his mother to be rescued as soon as possible. Now that he got the outcome he wanted, he was extremely excited.
The behavior of the Jade Emperor and the Queen Mother made him doubt whether he had misunderstood the two.
But Yang Jian knew more.
He understood the personalities of both of them.
As the masters of the three realms, they have no family affection in their hearts and only see interests.
The reason they are taking the initiative to show goodwill now is simply because they can overthrow their position.
Yang Jian exhaled lightly and said indifferently: "What about my mother?"
"And what about the millions of innocent people who died?"
The Jade Emperor's expression suddenly changed.
The Queen Mother sighed and said, "Although your uncle is the nominal Lord of the Three Realms and seems to have unlimited glory, do you know how heavy a responsibility he bears?"
"Your mother is his sister. Why would we want to hurt her? And those people who suffered were already suffering from the disaster in their lives..."
"Everyone can be emotional, but we must be fair in everything and follow the laws of heaven. Otherwise, how can we ensure the stability of the three realms..."
"Really?" Yang Jian sneered, "You are used to being high and mighty, and have never paid attention to the suffering of the people. Do you think you can cover up your dereliction of duty with a trivial disaster?"
Anger welled up on the Jade Emperor's face, but when the words came to his lips, he held them back.
The Yang Jian now is not the same Yang Jian he was a thousand years ago. He has superb strength and is helped by these mysterious people of unknown origin. If the Three Pure Ones and Tathagata do not take action, even if all the power of Heaven is used up, it may not be able to stop the other party. If they annoy the other party, it may really lead to a change of dynasty in Heaven.
After noticing that all the gods looked at him strangely, the Jade Emperor became so angry that he almost vomited blood.
He felt that his prestige had hit rock bottom.
But who could have imagined that this would happen? Yuanshi Tianzun once said that people like them would never appear again in the world.
"What do you want?" the Jade Emperor said, suppressing his anger.
"Apologize for your past sins in front of all living beings in the three realms!" Yang Jian said word by word.
"Impossible!" said the Jade Emperor flatly.
If he really did that, where would his dignity and face be?
By then, he, the Lord of the Three Realms, will exist in name only and will completely degenerate into an insignificant symbol.
By then, perhaps the position of Heavenly Emperor should be passed on to someone else.
He couldn't bear the price! "Yang Jian, don't mess around." The Queen Mother also advised, "You will..."
Yang Jian glanced at her indifferently and said, "It's okay if you don't apologize."
The Jade Emperor relaxed his expression and said, "I did do something wrong. Today, in front of all the people in Heaven..."
He was interrupted by Yang Jian when he was halfway through his words: "Then let the affairs of the human world return to the human world."
"You...what do you mean?" The Jade Emperor frowned.
The gods also looked at each other.
"The Heavenly Court and the Human World do not interfere with each other," Yang Jian said indifferently, "The affairs of the Human World are managed by mortals."
"The three realms interfere with each other and are interdependent. If we do this, won't it cause chaos in the three realms?" The Queen Mother said calmly.
Yang Jian glanced at her and said, "I have heard of a world that was originally the same as ours, but the Lord of the Heaven made a mistake, which led to the outbreak of the war between humans and gods. Later, he sealed the Heaven, and the two worlds have been separated since then..."
"How can that be possible?!" The Jade Emperor looked grim.
He suddenly felt a little regretful. Why did he compromise a thousand years ago instead of trying his best to suppress this guy to death.
Yang Jian stared at him indifferently.
This idea came to him when he heard Chenxiang and Li Xiaoyao talking about the structure of the Fairy Sword world.
He had thought deeply about this matter for a long time.
Although he is revered as a god, he has deeper feelings for the human world.
He has always been very clear that many of the disasters in the world are caused by the interference of the immortal world.
Isolating the human world from the fairyland will surely solve many problems.
This is also a punishment for the Jade Emperor.
"I don't accept it!" the Jade Emperor said stubbornly.
Yang Jian laughed and said, "There are countless mountains and ridges in the world. The Jade Emperor and the Queen Mother may choose which mountain is suitable for you to reflect on your mistakes!"
"How dare you!" The Queen Mother was shaking with anger.
"Are you threatening us?" The Jade Emperor suddenly stood up.
"Yes." Yang Jian smiled nonchalantly.
Faced with the tense situation among the three people, the many gods in Lingxiao Palace remained silent.
Xiao Yan, Ye Fan and others were just watching the fun.
Sun Wukong scratched his ears and cheeks, wishing that the few of them would start fighting right away.
He always regretted not giving the Jade Emperor a blow in the Lingxiao Palace.
I think it's also possible to use the Jade Emperor from this other world as a substitute, at least I can practice first.
Chenxiang's eyes lit up and he felt that this moment was so refreshing.
My uncle is really awesome!
The Jade Emperor stood there, his face changing from gloomy to bright.
Apologizing to all sentient beings in the three realms is something he can never accept.
As the Emperor of Heaven, how could he bow to those ants?
Separating the immortals from the mortals would also cause the status of the Heavenly Court to plummet, and even the previous order would collapse.
This was also difficult for him to accept.
But looking at Yang Jian's expression and feeling the gradually suffocating aura, he knew that the other party was not lying at all.
If he didn't agree, he would have to spend the rest of his life in the dark mountains, which made him despair.
This nephew, who once caused him a lot of trouble but was not regarded as a real threat by him, has grown up like this and can even force Tathagata Laojun to retreat.
Why could Yang Jian's own nephew be so convinced of his uncle, but this evil creature wanted to lock him up? He suddenly felt a strong sense of powerlessness.
The Jade Emperor closed his eyes and didn't open them again until a while later.
"Okay," he looked around at the gods and immortals in the Lingxiao Palace and said, "Then let the immortals and mortals be separated forever!"
The gods, who had been calm and indifferent, all looked incredulous when they heard this.
The Jade Emperor looked at the man and sneered without saying anything.
Even if he is killed, it will be impossible to apologize to those ants, otherwise he will lose face and his position as the Emperor of Heaven will be in danger.
The reason he could reach his current position was not because of his unrivaled strength, but because he was one of the people chosen by the top gods who had no time to take care of worldly affairs to respond to the calamity. He emerged from among them after experiencing thousands of calamities.
He is not irreplaceable, he just happens to be able to maintain the stability of the three realms, allowing those people to focus more on cultivation and provide them with the necessary resources.
Since Yang Jian wanted to break this order, why should he oppose it? Anyway, these gods and immortals all miss the incense of the human world. After the immortals and mortals are separated, let's see what they will do.
Many of them have powerful backers.
Then let’s all give up the incense and offerings from the mortal world!
It would be best if it caused the wrath of heaven and the resentment of the people! A trace of resentment flashed in the Jade Emperor's eyes as he looked at Yang Jian in front of him.
Yang Jian naturally guessed what the Jade Emperor was thinking, but he didn't care.
In the face of absolute power, all conspiracies and calculations are useless.
Even after he released his own aura, the other gods in Lingxiao Palace did not dare to speak again.
Feeling the silence around him, the Jade Emperor became more and more irritated.
"Besides that," Yang Jian said again, "let's talk about compensation."
"Compensation?" The Queen Mother's eyes widened, and two words slowly emerged in her mind.
Shameless! Yang Jian nodded: "My parents, brother, and my brothers cannot sacrifice in vain..."
He repeated it expressionlessly, and ended by saying, "You have never compensated them!"
"Yang Jian, don't go too far!" The Queen Mother was so angry that she almost slammed the table.
Yang Jian turned to her, and a dazzling purple light flashed in his eyes.
The Queen Mother's voice suddenly stopped and she fell silent.
"What do you want?" asked the Jade Emperor.
"Ten thousand peaches, ten thousand tons of spiritual stones, ten thousand sets of magic weapons and armor..."
Before Yang Jian finished speaking, the Queen Mother blushed and said, "You are trying to rob me!"
Sun Wukong quickly added fuel to the fire and said, "They are just trying to snatch it. Do you dare not agree?"
He was eagerly waiting to hit the Jade Emperor on the head with a stick! The Queen Mother's eyes went dark and she almost fainted.
The Jade Emperor tried to be as calm as possible and said, "Uncle was indeed wrong about what happened back then, but this is our family affair..."
Chen Xiang turned to Yang Jian and interrupted, "Uncle, I heard that Mount Tai is majestic and very suitable as a place for the Emperor of Heaven to reflect on his mistakes."
The Jade Emperor's eyelids twitched and he wished he could slap the boy in front of him to death.
This little bad boy is really just like his uncle! But looking at Yang Jian's aggressive look, it was obvious that he was not going to treat him as uncle and nephew.
Yuanshi Tianzun, Laojun and others were reluctant to show up.
He suddenly felt a strong sense of powerlessness.
"I promise you." He closed his eyes, with a look of despair, "If you have any other conditions, just kill me!"
He knew that he had lost all face, and a helpless and crazy thought arose in his mind.
Tired, destroy it!
"That's all." Yang Jian looked at him and smiled, "Then please sign this Heavenly Dao Contract, Your Majesty!"
As soon as he finished speaking, a piece of golden paper condensed in the air and flew towards the Jade Emperor.
Feeling the breath of heaven on the gold paper, the Jade Emperor suddenly felt relieved.
Ordinary people cannot mobilize the power of heaven, and only the Three Pure Ones can do this.
It doesn't seem too shameful to give in in front of such a person.
At least he is his good nephew!
The Jade Emperor gritted his teeth.
"It would have been great if Yao Ji hadn't died." At this moment, the Jade Emperor suddenly thought of his sister and felt deep regret in his heart.
If I had cared more about my family at the beginning, things wouldn't have ended up like this.
He signed his name, feeling the bond of heaven. When he looked up at Yang Jian, he smiled again and said warmly, "Yang Jian, now that we have finished discussing official matters, how about we talk about personal matters?"
This sudden change left Yang Jian unable to react.
He almost thought that he had just done the Jade Emperor a great favor, causing him to show unprecedented kindness and intimacy to him.
Seeing that he remained silent, the Queen Mother smiled and said, "Your friends have come from far away. As the Lord of Heaven, can your uncle entertain you a few?"
Chenxiang looked confused.
He felt as if he had misunderstood something.
Tony secretly gave a thumbs up, thinking that politicians in any world have very flexible bottom lines.
Xiao Yan and Ye Fan looked at each other, admiration revealed in their eyes.
These two people were clearly humiliated by Yang Jian, but now they are trying to build relationships again.
Having been the god of justice for a thousand years, Yang Jian thought he was very thick-skinned, and at this moment he was impressed by the performance of the two.
He shook his head coldly and said, "I will entertain my friends myself."
"You probably haven't asked anyone to prepare wine and food yet?" The Jade Emperor said with a smile, "I have already asked someone to prepare them. They are all fresh dragon liver and phoenix marrow, which are carefully prepared by the God of Food. There are also fine wines and peaches and fruits. Don't waste them."
"Yes," the Queen Mother also persuaded, "Your friends have come from afar, we can't let them go hungry, right?"
Yang Jian hesitated for a moment, thinking that he really couldn't come up with anything better to entertain everyone, so he nodded and said, "Thank you."
Anyway, my goal has been achieved, so it doesn't matter if the Jade Emperor and Queen Mother are willing to show goodwill.
The originally lifeless Lingxiao Palace instantly became cheerful again after Yang Jian said this.
The others just came to join in the fun, so it would be great if they could help, but if they can't, it would be an interesting experience for them to taste the delicacies of heaven and see the scenery here.
Walking in the fairy-like heaven, listening to the celestial music that makes people feel refreshed and mesmerized, and tasting one delicious food after another that makes people linger on the aftertaste, everyone has one thought in their mind.
It is indeed the fairyland! During this period, the gods also accompanied everyone and chatted with them.
Everyone was surprised to learn that this monkey carrying the golden cudgel was also called Sun Wukong.
After hearing the name of Nezha, the Jade Emperor hurriedly asked someone to call over the other Nezha who had been punished.
After the two Ne Zha met, they were curious about each other and then fought.
After all, the demon boy Nezha has the blessing of the tavern, so he is naturally better.
He proudly introduced his master, but when he was about to say his master's name, Taiyi Zhenren covered his mouth.
Unlike the heartless Nezha, he has no interest in recognizing another "self", and he doesn't want to meet the Yuanshi Tianzun of this world, so as to avoid ending up like Zhu Youjian in the tavern.
But everyone guessed the identity of Taiyi Zhenren.
This made everyone even more curious.
The Jade Emperor and Queen Mother, who were sitting firmly in the first place, were secretly surprised.
They showed goodwill for two reasons: firstly, it was because Yang Jian's strength was no longer what it used to be, and they were trying to win over the other party through their blood relationship; secondly, they wanted to take the opportunity to find out where these people came from.
As they kept hearing the word "tavern" from people's mouths, they gradually formed a vague impression in their minds.
These people seemed to come from a special tavern, and they themselves came from a different world.
This made it even more difficult for them to understand.
What kind of tavern would have such a mysterious effect?
Could it be that those transcendent ancient gods have changed their profession to open taverns to attract people from other worlds? ...
Everything in the dimension of "The Lotus Lantern" has been settled.
Chenxiang rescued his mother effortlessly and released the new heavenly law in the process.
However, as soon as this new law appeared, the scope it covered became extremely limited.
Because with the birth of the new heavenly law, the people discovered that the statues in the temples they worshipped had cracked almost at the same time and their glory was gone.
The era of mortal self-governance has finally arrived.
At this time, a new guest arrived in the tavern.
