Chapter 759: Lotus Lantern + Journey to the West - Tang Monk's Flesh 19
Before the fairy's desire to become a mortal was completely resolved, a fallen scholar appeared in the mortal world, pointing his finger at the sky and cursing the injustice of heaven and earth. When the Jade Emperor learned of this, he immediately ordered the barefoot immortal to come down to the mortal world and send the fallen scholar to the eighteen levels of hell. The barefoot immortal refused the Jade Emperor's order on the grounds that he would only kill evil demons and monsters, and would not attack mortals.
The barefoot immortal had profound magical powers and was a wandering immortal. Even if the Jade Emperor was dissatisfied, he had no way to order him. He had no choice but to send the Dragon King of the East Sea to the sky above the fallen scholar's hometown, Jingzhou, to bring heavy rain for a month to punish the fallen scholar for his disrespect to him. After the Jade Emperor's order came out, the Dragon King of the East Sea did not dare to disobey and could only bring floods to the innocent civilians in Jingzhou.
Yang Jian and Xiao Tian Dog passed by Jingzhou, which had become a swamp. Countless people's lives and belongings were washed away by the rainstorm. Seeing this tragic scene caused by the East China Sea Dragon King's continuous rain, Yang Jian flew into the sky on the spot to stop the East China Sea Dragon King from continuing to make rain. "East China Sea Dragon King, you have ignored the lives of the people of Jingzhou and cast a spell to make it rain heavily in Jingzhou for a month, causing thousands of people in Jingzhou to lose their lives."
"Such a huge massacre was caused for no reason. Today, I, Yang Jian, will seek justice for the people of Jingzhou!"
“Wait a minute, Master Erlang!” Seeing that Yang Jian’s magic was about to hit his face, the Dragon King of the East China Sea hurriedly explained, “I have been casting spells to make it rain in Jingzhou for a month in compliance with the order of the Jade Emperor. It was not my own decision. I hope Master Erlang could understand!” The Dragon King of the East China Sea felt aggrieved. If it were not for the order of the Jade Emperor, he, a Dragon King, would have lived a very comfortable life in the East China Sea. How could he be so stupid as to make it rain every day here?
"The Jade Emperor's order?" Yang Jian was puzzled.
The Dragon King of the East Sea was afraid that if he didn't explain clearly, he would be killed by Yang Jian, so he quickly explained the cause and effect of the matter clearly, "Erlang Zhenjun, this king really cannot disobey the order of the Jade Emperor."
"Just because a poor scholar cursed him, he wanted to bury so many people in Jingzhou with him?"
"Haha, what kind of Jade Emperor is this, and what a heaven is like..." After listening to the explanation of the Dragon King of the East China Sea, Yang Jian hated the Jade Emperor even more. At this moment, Queen Mother Wang, who had barely resolved the matter of the fairies descending to the earth, came to persuade Yang Jian to take on the position of the judicial god of heaven.
"Originally, such a small matter only needs to be reported to the God of Justice, who will deal with the culprit. It is precisely because there is no God of Justice in the Heavenly Court now that all matters are decided by the Jade Emperor alone."
"I want you to take on the role of the God of Justice, not to have you maintain the Jade Emperor's rule, but to have you uphold the laws of heaven and maintain the stability of the Three Realms."
After hearing what the Queen Mother said, Yang Jian felt a little shaken, but he was still hesitating whether to divorce the third princess, so he took Roaring Sky Dog and returned to Guanjiangkou.
Unexpectedly, when Yang Jian just returned to Guanjiangkou and had no time to say anything to the third princess, she started to accuse him of getting an illegitimate daughter from somewhere and asked him who the woman outside was. Yang Jian was reminded by the third princess's words and remembered that the third princess had thrown away Xiaoyu before, so he immediately quarreled with the third princess.
The quarrel between the two became more and more intense, and the third princess even threatened to go to Guanghan Palace to confront Chang'e. Everything was fine before, but the mention of Chang'e completely touched upon Yang Jian's most unspeakable secret. Yang Jian decided on the spot to accept the position of the God of Justice and escape from the sea of suffering.
Soon after, the Heavenly Court announced its decision to appoint Erlang Shen Yang Jian as the God of Justice. All the gods believed that Erlang Shen would never accept this appointment because it meant that Yang Jian would be charged with moral crimes such as forgetting his roots and betrayal.
However, what the gods did not expect was that Queen Mother and the Jade Emperor suddenly stepped in to dissolve the marriage between Erlang Shen Yang Jian and the Third Princess of the West Sea Ao Cunxin. Afterwards, Yang Jian, who had lost his wife, accepted the position of the god of justice and even admitted to the gods that it was wrong for his mother Yao Ji to come down to earth to be with his father.
When Yang Chan learned about this, she could not understand Yang Jian at all. She only felt that her former second brother Yang Jian had become a different person for the sake of power and godhood. Yang Chan was very disappointed. She did not want to see Yang Jian again, nor did she want to stay in Huashan anymore. She sent a message to Ruyi, and Ruyi told Yang Chan about herself in the Kingdom of Women. So in order to avoid Yang Jian, Yang Chan decided to go to the Kingdom of Women to find Ruyi.
When Yang Chan came to the Kingdom of Daughters and met Ruyi, she suddenly found that Ruyi's aura had changed a lot. She was a little surprised. No matter how hard Ruyi tried to hide it before, her fairy aura could not be hidden. Now Ruyi not only did not look like a fairy at all, but looked like an ordinary mortal.
"You are..." Yang Chan didn't know how to describe it. She just felt that Ruyi now was like the most ordinary grain of sand in the world, which would be overlooked if one was not careful. But if one looked closely, she felt that Ruyi was like a gem, with all its charm contained in it.
"Maybe... returning to nature?" During these days in the Kingdom of Women, Ruyi has been living like an ordinary mortal, running around for three meals a day and working hard for life. She felt that the time that had suddenly accelerated after she practiced Taoism has slowed down again.
"Indeed." Yang Chan looked at Ruyi and nodded in agreement, "It is indeed a return to nature." She originally wanted to complain to Ruyi about her second brother Yang Jian, but after seeing Ruyi, Yang Chan suddenly didn't want to say anything.
"Why let those things affect Ruyi's mood?" Yang Jian had never discussed anything he did with his sister, and Yang Chan suddenly felt bored.
Although Ruyi did not pay special attention to what was happening in Heaven, she could probably guess what the situation was based on the time. She did not ask specifically, but just invited Yang Chan to live in the Kingdom of Women together.
Ruyi rented a small courtyard in the Kingdom of Daughters, planted many flowers and plants, and lived a very ordinary life. The scenery in the Kingdom of Daughters is beautiful, and the people live and work in peace and contentment. There is no war or natural disasters. Yang Chan grew up with her parents in the mortal world. Now she lives like a mortal again, as if she is growing up again after she was eight years old. In just half a year, her mentality has changed a lot.
On this day, Yang Chan suddenly found Ruyi and said to her, "Ruyi, I, I want to drink the water from Zimu River."
"What?" Ruyi was stunned.
Yang Chan thought about it seriously, and then said to Ruyi: "My father and eldest brother were killed, and my mother was taken away when I was only eight years old. Later, my mother died. My second brother is my only relative."
"I used to think that no matter how much time had passed, my second brother and I would always be each other's only relatives. Even if my second brother married the third princess, it would just be one more relative."
"But it was not until now that I understood that my second brother is my second brother and I am me. My second brother has his life, and I should also have my life."
"so......"
"So you just want to drink the water from Zimu River and give birth to a child yourself?" Ruyi directly helped Yang Chan finish what she had not finished saying.
