Chapter 3455: The Jade Emperor and Ru Lai?

In the Heavenly Palace of the Equally Prosperous Heaven.

“Damnit!” Situ Zuqing’s original body was in the Heavenly Palace of the Equally Prosperous Heaven.

Zhou Bing Wu, the Heavenly Emperor of the Equally Prosperous Heaven, allowed her to seek refuge in his Heavenly Palace because not only did he know Situ Zhuqing’s partner was a god, but he had also seen her partner in action. Her partner was the only reason he had taken her in.

At that time, Situ Zhuqing’s partner was smitten with her. Nevertheless, he did not return after he left because he already had a family back in the Realm of Gods. Situ Zhuqing was merely a lover, someone he had encountered while wandering outside of the Realm of Gods.

Alas, things did not turn as Situ Zhuqing had hoped. Feng Qing Yang, the Heavenly Emperor of the Solitary Destructive Heaven, did not care that her partner was a god at all and did not hesitate her clone that was created by the Wishful Celestial Wood.

“Feng Qing Yang, you asked for it…” The corners of Situ Zhuqing’s robes fluttered as a terrifying energy surged from her body. The ornamental hairpin on her head broke into two as anger overflowed in her heart. Her bloodshot eyes that were brimming with hatred made her lose her elegance; she looked more like a madwoman at this moment.

“After the passages between the Devata Realms and Realms of Gods reopen, I’ll look for him. Even if he doesn’t care about me, I believe he’ll avenge our daughter…” Situ Zhuqing muttered to herself as flames of fury burned in her eyes. After she calmed down, she replaced the broken hairpin with a new hairpin.

“Yu’er…” Situ Zhuqing sent a message to her daughter, Feng Jian Yu, the Saint Girl of Luo River Sect after she calmed down. “We can’t stay in the Heavenly Palace of the Equally Prosperous Heaven anymore; we must leave immediately.”

Since Feng Qing Yang now knew of her close relationship with Zhou Bing Wu, there was a chance he would come looking for her in the Heavenly Palace of the Equally Prosperous Heaven after the Devata Realms’ Battle of the Geniuses ended. At that time, it would be too late for her to run away.

“300 years aren’t that long; I can wait. Feng Qing Yang, let’s see if you’re still so domineering after 300 years…”

When Situ Zhuqing brought Feng Jian Yu away from the Heavenly Palace of the Equally Prosperous Heaven, her eyes were still burning with anger despite her calm expression. As the Heavenly Emperor of the Luo River Heaven, how could she adapt to living on the run and hiding? If she was content living in seclusion, she would not have fought for the position of a Heavenly Emperor. Alas, it was impossible for her to return to her glorious days as the Heavenly Emperor of the Luo River Heaven for now because of the legendary Heavenly Emperor of the Solitary Destructive Heaven.

…

In the venue of the Devata Realms’ Battle of the Geniuses in the Heavenly Palace of the Primeval Heaven.

The crowd was still in shock after they watched Feng Qing Yang destroying Situ Zhuqing’s clone even after he knew her partner was a god from a Realm of Gods.

On the other hand, the other Heavenly Emperors finally realized how strong Feng Qing Yang had become.

“Heavenly Emperor Feng Qing Yang who survived the Asura Hell, one of the seven deadliest places in the Devata Realms, has proven his strength once again… He’s even not afraid of a god from the Realm of the Gods even though he only recently attained godhood.”

“Heavenly Emperor Feng Qing Yang’s pride is truly amazing. Perhaps, his unyielding and fearlessness are the reasons he was able to achieve such remarkable feats in such a short time…”

When the Heavenly Emperors heard that Feng Qing Yang was forced to flee to the Asura Hell, most of them thought they would rather fight to the death if they were in his shoes. Fleeing to the Asura Hell was not an option since they knew they were not strong enough to survive the Asura Hell. After all, it was a known fact in all Devata Realms that those who had yet to attain godhood would not be able to survive the Asura Hell. In fact, even gods would not wander into the depths of the Asura Hell since there was a possibility that they might die. It was rumored that only supreme powerhouses could easily survive the Asura Hell. Naturally, no one could confirm if this rumor was true.

After killing Situ Zhu Qing’s clone, Feng Qing Yang brought Meng Luo, the Heavenly Savage Celestial Emperor, with him and flew to the floating island where Ding Fu, the Heavenly Emperor of the Primeval Heaven, was seated.

One could see Ding Fu had high regard for Feng Qing Yang based on the fact that he had personally greeted Feng Qing Yang and invited Feng Qing Yang to sit with him. The other Heavenly Emperors were not given such treatment.

Meng Luo, and descended on the floating island where the Heavenly Emperor of the Primeval sat.

“Heavenly Emperor Feng, there are very few people that I, Ding Fu, respect. Today, you can count yourself one of them…” Ding Fu praised Feng Qing Yang. If he were in Feng Qing Yang’s shoes, he would not have provoked Situ Zhuqing, knowing Situ Zhuqing’s partner was a god. After all, the passages between the Devata Realms and the Realms of Gods would only close for 1,000 years every 10,000 years. This time, there were only 300-400 years left before the passages opened again, allowing celestials and gods to travel freely.

In fact, gods and celestials rarely traveled to the others’ realms. For celestials, it was too dangerous for them to travel to Realms of Gods since gods were much powerful than them. As for the gods, there was not much reason for them to travel to the Devata Realms where the inhabitants were significantly weaker than them. Moreover, they were prohibited from simply killing Heavenly Emperors of Devata Realms and members of the Title Temples. This was a rule set by the supreme powerhouses. Gods who violated this rule would be punished by the supreme powerhouses.

In the past, the servant from the Yun Clan from the Realm of Gods could attack Feng Qing Yang without any consequences because that servant had yet to attain godhood. Therefore, his actions did not violate the supreme powerhouses’ rule. Since Yun Qing Yan. the Young Master of the Yun clan, was already a god at that time, he could not attack Feng Qing Yang. Therefore, he had sent his servant to do the dirty work.

Feng Qing Yang shook his head when he heard Ding Fu’s praise. He said with a smile, “Brother Ding Fu, you flatter me too much…”

Needless to say, at this moment, Feng Qing Yang was the focus of everyone’s attention.

“Duan Ling Tian, Senior Feng Qing Yang is really amazing. You’re really lucky to have become his true disciple!”

Not only was Tang San Pao, who was sitting behind Duan Ling Tian in awe, but even Su Li was in awe of Feng Qing Yang.

Before the start of the Devata Realms’ Battle of the Geniuses, Su Li had spent some time with Feng Qing Yang. After Feng Qing Yang had given him a few pointers, his sword skills had improved, and he had learned a lot.

Soon after, the crowd’s attention finally shifted away from Feng Qing Yang as other Heavenly Emperors continued to arrive at the venue.

“Look! That’s Yu Hao Tian, the Heavenly Emperor of the Jade Emperor Heaven!”

The Heavenly Emperor of the Jade Emperor Heaven’s name was Yu Hao Tian; he was better known as the Jade Emperor.

‘He’s the Jade Emperor?’ Duan Ling Tian instinctively turned to look upon hearing the discussion in his surroundings.

Yu Hao Tian, the Heavenly Emperor of the Jade Emperor Heaven, was a tall middle-aged man. His complexion was jade-like, and his eyebrows made him look valiant. His expression was dignified, befitting a Heavenly Emperor of a Devata Realm. He was ranked eighth on the Devata Realms’ Heavenly Emperors ranking.

Duan Ling Tian was familiar with the Jade Emperor who was a famous mythical figure on earth. However, according to ancient legends on earth, the Jade Emperor did not possess power since there were no instances of him displaying his might.

Based on the book, Journey to the West, when Sun Wu Kong caused a ruckus in the Heavenly Palace of the Jade Emperor Heaven, the Jade Emperor did not take action. Instead, Gautama Buddha had dealt with Sun Wu Kong instead. Nevertheless, Duan Ling Tian had always believed the Jade Emperor, the leader of the Heavenly Court, was not without power. Based on the fact that the Jade Emperor was ranked eighth on the Heavenly Emperors ranking, it seemed like Duan Ling Tian was right. His ranking proved that he was at least on par with Sun Wu Kong.

“That person following behind the Jade Emperor must be Yang Jian, the Three-eyed Celestial Emperor!”

Soon enough, people shifted their attention to the young man trailing closely behind the Jade Emperor. The cold and aloof young man who was dressed in silver armor had a third eye on his glabella, making him look rather strange.

‘The Erlang god, Yang Jian!’ Duan Ling Tian’s heart thumped heavily. He did not expect he would be able to meet two legendary characters from earth. ‘I wonder if Sun Wu Kong will show up as well? However, I think it’s unlikely…’

Duan Ling Tian, who was still lost in his thoughts, widened his eyes slightly when he heard the crowd’s discussion.

“Look! It’s the Temple Master of the Title Temple in the Pavilion Shaft Heaven, Ru Lai!”

Duan Ling Tian was shocked as he looked at the tall and burly young monk dressed in purple and golden robes. A few monks followed behind the young monk as he flew into the venue.

‘Ru Lai?’ Duan Ling Tian was shocked and confused because Ru Lai was the name of Gautama Buddha. ‘Why’s he in the Pavilion Shaft Heaven?’

Soon, Duan Ling Tian obtained the answer to his question.

“It’s said that Ru Lai was one of the decision-makers in the Jade Emperor Heaven before he was invited to become the Temple Master of the Title Temple in the Pavilion Shaft Heaven.”

“I heard about that as well. It’s said that he was invited to become the Temple Master of the Title Temple in the Pavilion Shaft Heaven because he can facilitate better communication between the Title Temple and the Heavenly Emperor of the Pavilion Shaft Heaven since he’s good friends with the Heavenly Emperor of the Pavilion Shaft Heaven…”
