Yao Ji's Mortal Longing, Yuding Blocks the Path

"What did you say?"

Luohu was so shocked that he almost fell off his chair. He quickly got up and stood up, asking Mo Yi again.

"Are you sure?"

Mo Yi was very sure and explained the situation to Luohu.

"Good! Excellent!"

"I never expected I'd have a child, and a grandchild is coming soon too!"

"Hahaha!"

"Mo Yi! You've done a great service this time. Take this origin demonic energy. After refining it, it can help you break through your cultivation. You may go!"

While Luohu was happy, he also decided that the Demon Realm would strike at Buddhism first after its emergence.

Meanwhile, something major was also happening in the Primordial Chaos.

Haotian, who was leisurely listening to music in the Heavenly Court, received a report from his subordinate.

"Reporting to the Jade Emperor, this humble servant was inspecting the performance of the gods in the Heavenly Realm and discovered that the Goddess of the Desire Realm is not fulfilling her duties in the Desire Realm. We searched the entire Heavenly Realm but could not find any trace of her. This humble servant fears something has happened and has come to report to the Jade Emperor!"

Haotian was stunned but didn't take it too seriously. His sister had always liked to play around. Although her cultivation wasn't particularly high, she yearned for the mortal world. When Haotian first became the Heavenly Emperor, Yao Ji, who had just arrived at the Heavenly Court, found it novel, and nothing had happened.

But later, after staying in the Heavenly Court for a long time, she found it too desolate and would often go to the mortal world to play. Haotian had always turned a blind eye to this, letting her do as she pleased as long as there were no major problems.

However, Yao Ji was now enfegetted as the Goddess of the Desire Realm and had the responsibility of overseeing it. The Heavenly Realm was full of intrigue, and Haotian needed to set an example.

Although Yao Ji's dereliction of duty wasn't a big deal for Haotian, since someone had reported it to him, he couldn't openly show favoritism. He decided to find Yao Ji and discipline her properly.

Immediately, Haotian conjured the Spiritual Treasure, the Haotian Mirror, and began searching for Yao Ji in the mortal world. To his surprise, he saw a scene that almost made Haotian furious and die. He was so angry that Haotian directly stood up from his dragon throne.

It turned out that Yao Ji had left the Heavenly Realm this time and met the mortal Yang Tianyou while traveling in the mortal world. The two fell in love and secretly got married, making Haotian's recently issued decree a joke.

After they got married, they even had two sons and one daughter. The eldest son was named Yang Jiao, the second son was named Yang Jian, and the youngest daughter was Yang Chan.

At this moment, the mirror displayed the harmonious scene of Yao Ji's family, which was clearly seen by everyone in the Lingxiao Palace, causing their expressions to change drastically.

In fact, this wouldn't have been a big deal in the past. The problem was that Haotian had just issued a decree forbidding immortals and mortals from falling in love, and unexpectedly, the first one to violate it was Haotian's sister.

Smarter people, even if they had an immortal-mortal romance, would hide it and give some miraculous elixirs to the mortal to help them become an immortal, and then they could be together openly. This way, the Heavenly Court wouldn't interfere.

But Yao Ji, for some unknown reason, got married without a word and even had children. Wasn't this slapping Haotian in the face? Now, even if Haotian wanted to show favoritism, he had no excuse.

The more Haotian watched, the angrier he became. He had just become the Heavenly Emperor, and although he was personally appointed by the Dao Ancestor, very few people respected him. Moreover, countless people were looking for an excuse to seize his power. If he made one wrong move, he would become a laughingstock of the Three Realms.

Secondly, Haotian was also furious with his sister. What was Yao Ji's status? She was the eldest princess of the Heavenly Court. Even if she really wanted to get married, with her status, she could find a powerful immortal to be her Dao Companion. Even if she really fell for a mortal, she should have told him, her brother.

At that time, he could have easily given the mortal some miraculous elixirs and they could have been together legitimately.

Yao Ji herself was the goddess who managed desires. She was breaking the law she was supposed to uphold and not respecting her brother at all.

The more he thought about it, the angrier Haotian became, and he immediately issued an order.

"Guards, relay my decree! Dispatch heavenly soldiers and generals to the mortal world to capture Yao Ji and bring her here."

At this moment, Haotian was truly enraged.

The heavenly general below hesitated and asked, "Your Majesty, what should we do about those four mortals?"

Haotian's face turned cold, and he said, "Kill them all!"

But then he thought that they were his nephews and felt a pang of reluctance.

"Forget it, kill Yang Tianyou. The children are innocent. Bring them back to the Heavenly Court to be dealt with later!"

"Yes, Your Majesty!" The heavenly general took the order and went to apprehend Yao Ji.

Haotian was now filled with sorrow and hatred for Yang Tianyou, gritting his teeth, "A mere mortal, how dare he defile my sister? No matter who is behind you, I will kill you."

"However, those three children are my grandchildren after all, and they must not be harmed. No, I must go and seek help from the Young Master."

With that thought, Haotian hurried towards Jade Capital Mountain.

Meanwhile, after the heavenly soldiers and generals descended to the mortal world, they headed straight for Yang Tianyou's residence.

Yao Ji, who was at home, suddenly had a bad premonition. Before she could even divine it, she saw countless heavenly soldiers and generals surrounding her.

The heavenly soldiers didn't waste any time and immediately attacked Yang Tianyou.

Seeing that Yang Tianyou was in mortal danger, Yao Ji immediately intervened.

After all, Yao Ji was Haotian's sister and was greatly favored by him. He gave her many good things, so her strength was quite considerable.

While blocking the attacks of the heavenly soldiers and generals, she could still spare some energy to send the children and Yang Tianyou away.

But Haotian had given the order to kill Yang Tianyou. If he escaped, these heavenly soldiers would lose their heads.

The heavenly soldiers and generals attacked with full force, ignoring Yao Ji. They directly intercepted Yang Tianyou and stabbed him to death with a spear. The three children, however, were sent thousands of miles away by Yao Ji.

Although Yao Ji had enjoyed many good things, she had not experienced any major battles. After struggling to resist, she was captured by the heavenly soldiers. After binding Yao Ji with the Immortal Binding Rope, they escorted her to the Heavenly Court to report their success. The remaining heavenly soldiers and generals began to search for the three children.

Finally, thousands of miles away, the three children were captured by heavenly soldiers and generals. Just as they were about to be taken back to report, a pure light appeared and directly swept the three children away.

"That's Yuding Zhenren of the Chan Religion!"

One of the heavenly soldiers recognized the Taoist who had intervened and immediately surrounded him.

The Jade Emperor had explicitly stated, multiple times, that the three children must be brought back to the Heavenly Court. If they were taken by Yuding Zhenren, wouldn't that be their failure?

Although Yuding Zhenren was Yuanshi Tianzun's disciple, Haotian had Dao Ancestor Hongjun backing him. These Heavenly Soldiers and Generals weren't afraid, and immediately spoke to Yuding Zhenren, demanding the children.

"We request that Yuding Zhenren hand over the three children to us. Yao Ji yearned for the mortal world and descended, and these are her sons. We are acting under the Jade Emperor's orders to bring them back to the Heavenly Court for judgment. This is a Heavenly Court matter, and we hope the True Master will not interfere!"

Yuding Zhenren, however, calmly replied, "These three children are fated to be with this humble Taoist. Although Yao Ji broke the Heavenly Laws, the children are, after all, innocent. Why add to the bloodshed?"

"True Master, you misunderstand. We merely wish to bring them to the Heavenly Court; we have no intention of killing them."
