Chapter 559: Gungun Inscribed the Second Heavenly Rule, Hongjun Sent His Good Corpse

"Ah, Haotian, when it comes to being a heavenly father, I can't compare to you~" Gungun shook its head and sighed at the thought.

If helping Ji Fa secure his throne meant violating a heavenly rule, the great god Gungun would never agree. At worst, it could just get another son. But Haotian... his loving father's heart truly earned this bear's admiration.

"Humm~" Gungun then cast a spell, using its vast magic power to temporarily seal the heavenly punishment brewing overhead. But just because heavenly punishment sounded terrifying did not mean it would kill Haotian once it descended. Although Haotian had violated a heavenly rule, as the Jade Emperor, he had merely killed a few innocent mortals. The punishment certainly would not be severe enough to demand his life.

Never mind talk of equality between humans and gods. Did humans pay with their lives for killing innocent birds and beasts?

They did not.

Even humans were not equal among themselves. The Human Race had long since left behind the egalitarian society of its primitive days. From the establishment of the Xia Dynasty to the present, it had remained a slave society. Nobles suffered no consequences whatsoever for killing slaves. If neither party was a slave, someone of higher standing would be punished for killing someone of lower standing, but paying with their life was still out of the question. Note that both the nobles and the slaves mentioned here were humans.

Gungun estimated that this heavenly punishment would probably only gravely injure
