Chapter 225

The decree from the Haotian and the century-old agreement were instantly forgotten by her.

She had only one thought in her mind: He can't be hurt, and those people can't die!

She rushed out of the palace without regard for anything, rode on auspicious clouds, and sped towards the human world at top speed.

When Yao Ji's figure appeared in front of Yang Tianyou, he almost thought it was his own hallucination.

When their eyes met, a thousand words were exchanged, replaced by a surge of emotion and a sense of peace.

However, the situation was urgent and allowed no time for tenderness.

The two immediately rushed to the location of the hidden danger in the Earth Veins.

Yao Ji said solemnly, "The earth's energy here is chaotic. To calm it down, I must use my own Immortal Power to regulate and guide it. However, this method is extremely dangerous and takes a very long time."

"What can I do?" Yang Tianyou asked without hesitation.

"When I cast my spell, the earth's energy will surge and become violent. You need to lead the people to set up a protective Array Formations at the location I indicate to protect the surrounding villages."

He did it without hesitation.

Yang Tianyou immediately mobilized all available resources to dig ditches and bury talisman stones according to Yao Ji's instructions.

Yao Ji hovered above the center of the Earth Veins, her hands forming a hand seal, and her body burst forth with dazzling celestial light, like a bright moon descending to the mortal world.

She poured her pure, primordial Immortal Power, bit by bit, into the raging Earth Veins.

Yao Ji's face grew increasingly pale. After the earth's energy was successfully channeled deep underground, she could no longer hold on. A trickle of blood spilled from the corner of her mouth, and she fell from the sky.

"Yao Ji!"

Yang Tianyou rushed forward and hugged her tightly.

Looking at his beloved, who had exhausted her Immortal Power and fallen into a coma, Yang Tianyou felt as if his heart was being torn apart.

He settled her in a makeshift tent and stayed by her side all night, trying to warm her gradually cooling body.

At that moment, they completely forgot the prohibition against meeting in private.

However, they forgot that Heavenly Court would not forget.

Yao Ji unleashed her primordial Immortal Power, and the energy fluctuations that shook the Earth Veins soared into the heavens like beacon fires in the night, instantly alarming the entire Heavenly Court.

Lingxiao Palace, the Haotian Shangdi suddenly stood up from his dragon throne, his face contorted with unprecedented rage.

The armrests of the dragon throne turned to dust silently under his palm.

"Well done, Yao Ji!"

She laughed in anger, "You never learn! You dare to descend to the mortal realm in secret and even use your primordial Immortal Power to interfere with the Earth Veins!"

What does she consider her celestial position? What does she consider my decrees? If she is not severely punished, where are the Heavenly Rules? Where is the majesty of the Heavenly Court?

A terrifying rage erupted from Haotian, sweeping across the entire Heavenly Court.

The immortals fell silent, trembling with fear; none dared to speak.

This time, Haotian does not intend to send any more Heavenly Soldiers and Generals.

She was going to personally descend to the mortal realm and bring this arrogant and ignorant younger sister back to Heavenly Court!

On the other side, in the mortal realm.

As the tremors in Earth Veins Sichuan subsided, the surviving people erupted in thunderous cheers, surrounding the beautiful couple in the center.

The woman, dressed in a flowing fairy gown, smiled gently; she was none other than Yao Ji. The man beside her, though looking weary, had clear eyes; he was none other than Yang Tianyou.

The two exchanged a smile, their fatigue vanishing instantly.

Just then, the light of the sky suddenly disappeared, and an extremely cold divine power descended from the heavens, silencing all the mortals present instantly. They prostrated themselves on the ground, and even breathing became difficult.

Amidst the golden light, an incomparably majestic figure slowly descended.

"Yao Ji."

Haotian's voice was devoid of any warmth, "Do you know your crime?"

Yao Ji's face drained of color instantly. She instinctively shielded Yang Tianyou behind her. "Sister, the danger to the Earth Veins has been eliminated, I..."

"Abandoning public duty for private gain and arbitrarily using one's primordial Immortal Power to interfere with the Earth Veins in the mortal realm—this is one example."

Haotian didn't give her a chance to explain at all, his gaze sweeping over Yang Tianyou behind her.

"Having an affair with a mortal and defiling the divine body of a celestial being—that's the second offense, Yao Ji. What else do you have to say?"

"Tianyou and I are truly in love, how can this be considered an insult! Calming the Earth Veins is to protect all living beings, what is wrong with that?" Yao Ji argued vehemently.

"Protecting all living beings?"

Haotian seemed to have heard the biggest joke in the world, a mocking smile playing on his lips. "The order of the Three Realms is governed by the Heavenly Dao."

"For your own selfish desires, you have repeatedly violated the Heavenly Rules. Where has that placed the dignity of Heavenly Court?"

Too lazy to say more, she waved her sleeve and ordered, "Guards, take the sinful immortal Yao Ji back to the Heavenly Court to await her fate!"

A golden-armored celestial being appeared out of thin air, its cold chains heading straight for Yao Ji.

"Don't want!"

Yang Tianyou stepped forward, spreading his arms to block Yao Ji: "She saved everyone here! You can't take her away!"

"An ant dares to try and stop a chariot with its bare hands?"

A cold glint flashed in Celestial Eye, and he flicked his finger.

Suddenly, a golden light struck Yang Tianyou.

In an instant, Yang Tianyou spat out blood, his body flying backward like a kite with a broken string, crashing heavily to the ground, and immediately lost consciousness.

"God bless you!"

Yao Ji Fa a mournful cry, but was firmly bound by the Heavenly God's Immortal Binding Rope and could not move.

She could only watch helplessly as her beloved fell into a pool of blood, while she was forcibly escorted away, transforming into a streak of light and disappearing into the horizon.

The atmosphere in the Lingxiao Treasure Hall was solemn and tense. Haotian sat on the imperial throne, his face ashen.

Your Highness, Yao Ji was bound by the Immortal-Binding Rope and knelt on the cold jade steps, her face pale.

"Listen up, all celestial officials!"

Haotian's voice resounded throughout the hall, "The sinful immortal Yao Ji descended to the mortal realm without permission, fell in love with a mortal, and became pregnant."

Even worse, in order to help mortals, he repeatedly used his primordial Immortal Power to interfere in human affairs, nearly causing great disasters. Each and every one of these acts was a capital offense against the Heavenly Edicts!

All the immortals bowed their heads, and none dared to speak.

Yao Ji raised her head and looked directly at Haotian on the throne. Her voice echoed throughout the entire Lingxiao Palace: "Sister, although the distinction between immortals and mortals is ordained by Heaven, true feelings transcend the distinction between immortals and mortals."

Yang Tianyou and I have never harmed anyone; on the contrary, we have protected humanity on numerous occasions. Why can't the Heavenly Rules tolerate this sincerity?

"Presumptuous!"

Haotian was thoroughly enraged by her words, "Even on the verge of death, you're still so stubborn!"

What you perceive as a good deed is nothing more than your mind being clouded by worldly desires!

Since you refuse to admit your mistake, then I will make you repent properly through endless suffering!

Meanwhile, in a simple thatched hut, Yang Tianyou awoke from his coma with a sharp pain in his chest.

He struggled to his feet, his mind filled with the desperate look in Yao Ji's eyes as she was taken away.

"Cough cough... Yao Ji..."

Just as he was anxious and at a loss, an old voice rang out from outside. "Young man, your injuries haven't healed yet, don't move around."

The old man helped him up and sighed, "The Heavenly Rules are merciless, but the human heart is righteous. Haotian represents the order of Heaven, which you alone cannot shake."

A light rekindled in Yang Tianyou's eyes. He looked at the old man and nodded emphatically. Even if the road ahead was fraught with danger, he would do anything for Yao Ji.

The old man was quite satisfied with Yang Tianyou's expression. As long as Yang Tianyou continued to cause trouble, he would have completed the Jieyin and Zhunti the mission to him...
