The Biased Crowd! My World!

As for whether the Heavenly Rules should be changed, everyone in the group voiced their own opinions.

However, their views differed, and no consensus could be reached.

At that moment, Shi Yaoyao delivered the final verdict.

[Call Me Group Owner]: True Monarch, don't you like Chang'e? Since that's the case, the Heavenly Rules must be changed. (wicked grin.jpg)

The moment Shi Yaoyao said this, everyone in the group immediately responded. Their previously differing opinions were instantly unified.

[Demon Realm Supreme]: Change them! They must be changed! Rules have always existed to restrain the weak; the strong are the ones who make the rules!

[Prince Changqin]: Agreed! The Heavenly Rules have harmed far too many people. They actually made True Monarch love someone he couldn't have!

[Sect Master Baiyue]: They all say I don't understand love, but I understand True Monarch. These Heavenly Rules must be changed!

[Maoshan Heavenly Master]: All living beings possess love and affection. This is the law of nature.

[Xiongba]: I don't care about anything else, but if anyone makes True Monarch unhappy, I won't allow it!

From different positions, people naturally viewed the same matter differently.

Previously, everyone had maintained an objective attitude toward changing the Heavenly Rules, with a fair-minded outlook of hanging it high when it did not concern them.

But once it involved themselves, their hearts were bound to become biased.

They might not care whether the immortals of the Lotus Lantern World could fall in love freely, but they cared about Yang Jian.

Yang Jian was one of their own.

If they did not support one of their own, were they supposed to support irrelevant outsiders instead?

Therefore, the moment they saw Shi Yaoyao's words, everyone chimed in. The Heavenly Rules absolutely had to be changed!

No one could stop their good brother from dating!

[Judicial God]: ...???

Yang Jian was rendered speechless. However, he had to admit that he was deeply moved by everyone's blatant favoritism.

Yang Jian liked Chang'e. No, it would be more accurate to say that he loved her deeply.

From unreachable admiration to mutual understanding born of compatible values, Yang Jian's love for Chang'e could withstand any test.

As for his former wife, Ao Cunxin, what he felt was more responsibility and familial affection born from spending so long together.

Chang'e was the White Moonlight Yang Jian could never obtain, buried deep within his heart.

When Yang Chan had tested Yang Jian, he had said that if he could win Chang'e's true heart, he would rather descend to the mortal world and become a demon.

Whether those words were true or false, and how much truth they contained, perhaps only Yang Jian himself knew.

Unfortunately, he had feelings for her, but she had none for him. From beginning to end, Yang Jian had only been in unrequited love.

[Demon Realm Supreme]: There's no need to dwell on whether the Heavenly Rules should be changed. As long as you are strong enough, everything can be done as you please.

[Prince Changqin]: At ease, unrestrained, following one's heart.

[Xiongba]: Exactly. Ever since learning of Tianmen Di Shitian and Xiao Sanshao, I had been constantly on edge, afraid they would come looking for me. But now, I've slaughtered them both. Before long, Tianxia Hui will conquer the entire world.

[Maoshan Heavenly Master]: Chief Xiong quietly accomplished something huge!

[Sect Master Baiyue]: Using the resources of an entire world to nourish oneself is absolutely correct.

[Xiongba]: Although my world is a martial arts world, fortunately, it is not barren. It even has Divine Beasts.

[Maoshan Heavenly Master]: My world is the most barren. It is also a World of Dharma Decline and is rapidly decaying. (teary-eyed.jpg)

[Call Me Group Owner]: Uncle Jiu has changed too. He's started saying "my world" as well. (covering mouth and laughing.jpg)

[Maoshan Heavenly Master]: ...You're slandering me! This is slander! (slamming table.jpg)

[Xiongba]: My world? There's nothing wrong with that.

[Demon Realm Supreme]: There's absolutely nothing wrong with it. @Judicial God; Yang Jian, since you are the Judicial God, shouldn't you be in charge of the laws of Heaven and Earth, and the laws of the Three Realms?

[Sect Master Baiyue]: So, True Monarch, shouldn't the Heavenly Rules be yours to decide? (doge for protection.jpg)

[Judicial God]: ...There are Sixteenth Order Saints in my world...

[Demon Realm Supreme]: It seems that unless Immortal Venerable makes a move, Yang Jian will have to keep eating beef. (holding back laughter.jpg)

[Call Me Group Owner]: Since we can't beat up the Saints, let's bully the Jade Emperor instead. Storm the Heavenly Palace, beat up the Jade Emperor, change the Heavenly Rules, and snatch Chang'e! (wicked grin.jpg)

[Prince Changqin]: The group owner truly loves watching chaos unfold. (helpless.jpg)

[Maoshan Heavenly Master]: As long as the Three Realms are not endangered, the Six Saints and Dao Ancestor Hongjun probably will not interfere.

[Sect Master Baiyue]: True Monarch is the Jade Emperor's nephew. This counts as a family dispute.

[Judicial God]: In recent years, for some unknown reason, the Saints' gazes have remained fixed upon the Three Realms...

[Demon Realm Supreme]: Could it be because you took out a Sixteenth Order treasure?

Chonglou understood this very well. When he had taken the Chaos Hate Blade out of the red packet, it had shaken the entire Demon Realm—no, the entire Six Realms.

Had he not refined the Chaos Hate Blade in time, the Six Realms would likely have been torn apart by its blade light.

Yet even so, Space-time rifts had appeared throughout the Six Realms, leaving its living beings uneasy to this day.

Heavenly Emperor Fuxi of the God Realm had even ordered the divine generals and heavenly officials to investigate the various realms and discover what had happened.

Therefore, Chonglou knew that even a mere trace of aura from a Sixteenth Order supreme treasure was incomparably terrifying.

And Yang Jian's world contained Sixteenth Order Saints. They had probably noticed something.

[Judicial God]: ...That's very possible. The commotion back then really was enormous. The Saints must have been investigating ever since.

Although Yang Jian was somewhat alarmed, he was not overly worried.

After he had fused the Heavenly Eye with Innate Yin Yang Qi, the divine light released by the Heavenly Eye had covered the entire Three Realms. The disturbance had been immense, but even Saints or Dao Ancestor Hongjun presumably could not determine where exactly that divine light had originated.

If they could have found him, then with a Saint's divine abilities, they would have done so long ago. Why would there still be no movement even now?

Of course, Yang Jian did not know that the Six Saints had been watching the Three Realms all this time for reasons entirely unrelated to him.

Hongjun had ordered the Six Saints to stabilize the order of the Three Realms, while he needed to reassemble the Origin Law of Destiny that Bai Yu had severed.

Thus, any great expert of the Grand Unity Golden Immortal realm in the Three Realms could sense the Saints' power permeating the entire Three Realms, believing that the Saints were watching over all living beings.

In truth, they were healing the world's wounds...

This time, the Lotus Lantern World had truly suffered a crushing defeat.

The Origin Law of Destiny had been severed, the roots of the Five Qi had been taken, Dao Ancestor Hongjun had been brutally beaten, and even the Jade Plate of Creation had nearly shattered, covered in cracks.

Hongjun himself did not know how long it would take for all this to fully recover...

As for revenge? Hongjun had never considered it. He could only silently lick his wounds.
