The Yang Family's Calamity

Yang Tianyou's body trembled uncontrollably. An instinctive fear of immortals and gods, born from his mortal flesh, seized him in an instant.

Yet even as his legs went weak and his heart pounded wildly, he still clenched his teeth, spread his arms, and shielded his three children firmly behind him without yielding a single step.

Only now did he truly understand that the pure, otherworldly air about Yao Ji, and the extraordinary power she occasionally displayed, had never meant she was some mountain spirit or wild monster. She was a celestial maiden of the lofty, unreachable Heavenly Court.

And the Heavenly Soldiers' arrival today was clearly to take her away—perhaps even to claim his family's lives.

But he was a husband. A father.

Even if an ant faced the Cyan Heaven, he could not retreat.

Seeing Lingxu relentlessly pressuring her mortal husband and young children, fury flared in Yao Ji's heart. She immediately stepped forward and stood before Yang Tianyou, her willow brows raised as she shouted sharply:

"Lingxu! How dare you!

My husband and children are innocent mortals. They bear no grudge against the Heavenly Court, yet you dare threaten them with violence—what exactly are you trying to do?!"

"What am I trying to do?"

True Lord Lingxu snorted coldly. With a sweep of his immortal robe, his gaze turned sharp as a blade as he stared directly at Yao Ji.

"Yao Ji, as the Princess of the Heavenly Court and the god who guards the Realm of Desire, you dared descend to the mortal world in secret, pledge yourself to a mortal ant, and bear children, violating the great taboo of Heavenly Law!

After committing such a grave crime, not only do you show no remorse, but you still intend to protect them and resist the Heavenly Court?"
