Chapter 848 A loving father and a filial son
"Fairy Chang'e, this matter has nothing to do with you. Don't bring trouble upon yourself. Leave immediately."
The Jade Emperor had a cold face and signaled with his eyes to the marshals Wang Mo, Yang Sen, Gao Youqian and other generals in front of the Lingxiao Palace. The marshals in front of the palace immediately understood the Jade Emperor's intention, and the four generals quickly stepped forward.
Wang Mo and Yang Sen captured the Moon God, while Gao Youqian and Li Xingba captured Chang'e, and were about to drag the pair of fairies from the Moon Palace down from the palace.
The Moon God was dragged to the Heavenly Prison and handed over to Wen Rui to vent his anger or something else, and Chang'e was sent back to the Moon Palace to prevent her from messing around and harming others and herself.
Although these four marshals of Lingxiao Palace are not top-notch generals, they are able to deal with two female immortals with ease.
Although Taiyin Star Lord had reached the realm of Golden Immortal, his immortal power was greatly suppressed due to the Jade Emperor's words and judgments. All the magic spells and supernatural powers related to the Moon Palace priesthood were sealed. He did not dare to display the magic spells and Taoist methods he had cultivated before the Conferred God in the Lingxiao Palace. He could only surrender and was roughly escorted out of the palace with a dejected look on his face.
All the immortals were silent, especially those from Zhouchen and Chanjiao, who could not help but glance at Wen Rui, with a little more fear in their eyes.
In the past, Wen Rui only relied on his strong background and eloquence to stir up trouble and plot in the court. Now, he just sat there without saying a word, and the deterrent effect he created forced the Jade Emperor to reach a tacit understanding and deal with those short-sighted low-level immortals on his behalf.
The middle and low-level immortal officials experienced the tyranny of the newly promoted Wen Xiao Tianzun, but several emperors such as the five high-ranking gods showed displeasure on their faces, and their eyes turned meaningful when they looked at Wen Rui.
They may not openly stand up to speak for Taiyin Xingjun, but that does not mean they agree with or fear Wen Xiaotianzun.
It's just because there is no direct interest involved, there is no reason to offend this god of calamity who is responsible for eliminating the demonic calamity.
Having offended Wen Rui, the next time he leads an army to attack the Blood Sea Demon Clan, he can use the power granted by his demon-subduing position to recruit his political enemies to serve as vanguards and use the Demon Ancestor to eliminate dissidents.
The abilities of all the great emperors are hundreds of times higher than that of the thousand-year-old vixen, so they still have this basic political fortitude.
Moreover, all the emperors have more or less enjoyed the benefits brought by theocracy. For example, Huang Feihu, the Great Emperor of Dongyue, whenever the mortal emperors offered sacrifices to the gods on Mount Tai, most of the merits and incense offerings were shared by him. If the gods wanted to go to the underworld to visit their deceased relatives and friends before passing through the gates of hell, or to ask the King of Hell for help, they had to express their gratitude to the Great Emperor of Dongyue.
Hasn’t the Moon God himself enjoyed the largest share of the moon’s light for tens of thousands of years?
Shangguan wanted to share some of the profits, so she didn't take it all and kept half of it. She even made a scene in Lingxiao Palace and openly exposed the hidden rules. If she wasn't unlucky, who would be?
As a result, none of the influential high-level gods stood up to speak for her.
The other low-level immortal officials were too insignificant, and one would die if they came out. They would all be thrown into the Heavenly Prison to suffer together with her.
"Wait a minute!"
Just as Taiyin Star Lord was about to be dragged out of the Lingxiao Palace, a majestic shout was heard outside the palace. The immortals looked in the direction of the sound and saw a burly middle-aged deity wearing a purple thunder robe, walking into the palace with upright steps.
The court meeting in heaven is such a solemn occasion. During every court meeting, the gate is heavily guarded. However, this deity acts as if he is in an empty place and does not take the guards of heaven seriously at all.
When the Heavenly Guards saw him, they lost their usual ferocity and ferocity, like mice seeing a cat, they all stepped aside to make way for him.
The four Lingxiao marshals who had received the Jade Emperor's order to escort the two fairies actually forgot their duties when they saw this honorable deity. They stood there stupidly, not daring to take another step.
The hands that were holding down the two fairies' arms gradually loosened, untying their restraints.
The visitor was none other than Wen Rui's adoptive father, the Nine-Heavenly Thunder God - Wen Zhong.
Over the past five hundred years, Wen Zhong rarely appeared in the Lingxiao Palace, and he would not personally attend either the Ganzhi Court Meeting or the Jiazi Court Meeting. Now that he appeared in the court, just standing there, the awe-inspiring aura he exuded moved and impressed all the gods and immortals.
"Marshals, bring the man back to the palace. I will deal with him after I have met the Jade Emperor and my rebellious son."
Passing by Yang Sen, Wang Mo and others, Wen Zhong said something casually without even turning his head.
Marshals Wang Mo, Yang Sen and others followed orders obediently, not daring to utter a word of rebuttal, and obediently sent the two Moon Palace fairies and Wen Zhong back to the main hall.
"Wen Tianzun..."
The Jade Emperor quickly stood up from his throne, nodded slightly, and then sat back on the throne. He said in a more cordial and kind tone, "Your Majesty is so busy with government affairs. You must have important matters to attend the meeting in person. Come, quickly set up a throne for the Heavenly Lord."
Wen Zhong hurriedly performed the Dao Ji and returned the greeting solemnly, without losing any courtesy, and walked upright and straight.
"Your Majesty, I am very disrespectful for trespassing into Lingxiao. I beg Your Majesty to forgive me."
"No problem, no problem! I heard that the Heavenly Lord has something important to report. According to the Heavenly Law, the Supreme God will make decisions in an emergency. You don't have to bow to the Emperor. You can go to the palace with your sword and shoes."
"Thank you for your tolerance, Your Majesty. Please allow me to confront my rebellious son first."
When the Jade Emperor heard what Zhong said, his eyes suddenly lit up. He nodded rapidly, made a "please" gesture, and put his chin on his hand and started to watch the scene of loving father and filial son with great interest.
"Rebellious son, you know you are wrong!"
After explaining to the Jade Emperor, Wen Zhong's gaze fell on Wen Rui's dumbfounded face and he shouted loudly.
Wen Rui was stunned for a moment, then gradually recovered from his surprise. He immediately managed his expression and turned back to his poker face with dead eyes.
He said coldly: "Thunder God, please pay attention to the occasion and refer to your position when you are working!"
Wen Zhong was choked by this blunt retort.
Although it was not the first time that Wen Rui, the rebellious son, talked back to him, but Wen Rui was not so bold in the past. He always talked back in private. Once Wen Zhong was so angry that he wanted to clear the house, he would either flee to his mother's room or hide in Aunt Huo Linxian's arms.
This was the first time that he had refuted Wen Zhong's respect in public, and in front of all the gods and the Jade Emperor. This had never happened in the court of the Shang Dynasty.
Subconsciously, Wen Zhong raised his hand and a purple lightning bolt appeared. Wen Rui waved his hand casually, and the space twisted to deflect the purple lightning bolt, thus blocking the attack.
The deflected purple lightning fell right into the crowd of immortals, exploding into a large ball of thunder and fire. Immediately, dozens of unlucky immortals were covered in charred black, foaming at the mouth, and lying paralyzed.
"You little brat, you've grown wings. Not only do you not listen to your father, but you also dare to take it as a lesson from me?"
Wen Zhong's face was gloomy, he suppressed his rage and spoke word by word.
