Chapter 137: The Jade Emperor Shows Favor, Yang Jian's Crisis
The Jade Emperor looked calmly at his sister, the Fairy Yaoji, and her three children: Yang Jian, Yang Jiao, and Yang Lian. Their faces were calm, but they could sense the anger beneath the Jade Emperor's tranquil exterior.
The Jade Emperor's concubine, the fairy Yaoji, had lived with Huang Tian for countless years. As the Jade Emperor was Huang Tian's benefactor, Yaoji also had some understanding of the Jade Emperor's character. She quietly watched the Jade Emperor, and Yaoji had never felt as cold-hearted as she did now.
Jade Maiden Fairy understood that among herself and her three children, only she and Yang Jia had the highest cultivation. The four of them combined would not be afraid even if they were facing a powerful Golden Immortal like Da Luo. However, their current opponent was Yu Huang, who was an almost-saintly corpse. The difference in strength between the two sides was too great to measure. Jade Maiden Fairy could only hope that Yu Huang would spare her three children out of brotherly love for herself and her siblings.
"Big brother, little sister may have a thousand wrongs, but her children are innocent, they are also your nephews and nieces. Today they came to me to make amends for their mistakes, please look at the fraternal affection between us, the filial piety of the children, and the blood relationship between you and them, spare them this once. Little sister is willing to be sealed away for another 30,000 years to quell big brother's anger, and big brother can also give an explanation to all living beings under heaven."
The Jade Emperor, as the benevolent ruler of the Heavenly Kingdom, was indeed enthralled by his own power, but he was also formed from a thread of goodness in the heart of the Heavenly Kingdom. At this moment, he was moved by the words of the Fairy Maiden and hesitated involuntarily. But before the Jade Emperor could make a decision, Yang Jian spoke up: "Mother, you don't need to ask him, as a disciple of the Holy One, he can't control us."
The Jade Emperor's heart, which had initially shown some signs of softening, was instantly dispelled by Yang Jiao's words. As the ruler of heaven and earth, he had always been suppressed by the various saints and was unable to truly dominate the three realms. Now, being openly provoked by Yang Jiao, a mere newborn calf who relied on his own strength as a saint's disciple, was utterly unbearable. The Jade Emperor gazed coldly at Yang Jiao, looking at him as if he were already a dead man.
The Jade Emperor's change naturally couldn't escape the attention of the Yaoji fairy beside him. Originally, she saw that the Jade Emperor still had a sympathetic attitude towards herself and others, but unexpectedly her own eldest son couldn't calm down and enraged the Jade Emperor. At this moment, the Jade Emperor coldly stared at Yang Jiao, his boundless aura pressing down on him.
Jade Maiden naturally sensed the Jade Emperor's aura heading towards Yang Jiao, and at this moment, for Yang Jiao's safety, she unexpectedly went forward to block the Jade Emperor's oppressive aura. Fortunately, although the Jade Emperor was furious at this time, Yang Jiao was after all his own nephew, so he only wanted to teach Yang Jiao a lesson, with measured moves, but also wouldn't let Yang Jiao off easily.
At this time, the Yaoji fairy suddenly appeared in front of Yang Jiao, oppressed by the Jade Emperor's aura, and involuntarily let out a muffled hum, spitting out a mouthful of fresh blood. Yang Jia and Yang Lian, who were standing beside him, saw the sudden situation and quickly stood in front of Yaoji fairy and Yang Jiao, joining forces to block the Jade Emperor's quasi-saint aura. However, their blocking only slowed down the speed of the Jade Emperor's aura.
The already injured Yaoji Xianzi and Yang Jiao came to the back of Yang Jian and Yang Lian after seeing their situation, and joined forces to block the momentum of the Jade Emperor.
Everyone under the saint is like an ant, and even if Taizhen Jin Xian is compared to an ant, it's not much stronger. The desperate struggle of the four people only delayed some time. Just as the four were in a precarious situation, suddenly a cultivator holding a sharp sword appeared before Yu Huang and said: "Yu Huang, this time many evil spirits have committed offenses, please spare them on account of their filial piety."
The Jade Emperor looked at the suddenly appearing Taoist and said, "Yu Ding, you are not in your cave collecting blessings, what are you doing here? This muddy water is still not suitable for fellow Taoists to lie down." After finishing speaking, the Jade Emperor shifted his own momentum to attack Yu Ding.
Yu Ding Zhen Ren, as a disciple of Yuan Shi Tian Zun, has a profound Dao cultivation. Although he hasn't beheaded any corpses yet, his own cultivation is already at the later stage of Da Luo Jin Xian. Facing the aura of Yu Huang, Yu Ding Zhen Ren remains unbothered.
Only to see the Jade Ding True Person holding a precious sword in the midst of the Jade Emperor's aura, like a small boat drifting about, constantly dissolving the Jade Emperor's aura. The Jade Emperor saw that his own aura was unable to affect the Jade Ding True Person, and immediately went forward to attack him.
Yu Ding Zhen Ren's Taoist cultivation was indeed profound, but his own Taoist cultivation was even more profound. Although he could exert strength far beyond his own realm, his Taoist cultivation couldn't be converted into actual strength. After exchanging blows for a moment, Yu Ding was ultimately defeated by Jade Emperor.
The Jade Emperor defeated the Jade Cauldron and did not stop, continuing to attack Yang Jiao. Just as Yang Jiao was about to dodge, Yang Er suddenly appeared, saving Yang Jiao at the cost of his own injury.
The Jade Emperor originally thought he could recreate Yang Jiao, but unexpectedly halfway through, Cheng Yaojin appeared and was rescued by Yang Jia. At this time, the Jade Emperor was very angry and no longer cared about Yang Jiao, Yang Lian and others, directly heading towards Yang Jia to kill him.
In the realm of Taiyi Golden Immortal, how could Yang Jian be a match for Jade Emperor? In less than a moment, he was suppressed and beaten, constantly in danger. Just as Yang Jian was on the verge of defeat, suddenly a finger appeared in the sky pointing at Jade Emperor to attack him.
