Chapter 262: Chapter 236, Bai Jin Accepts an Apprentice Zi Yunlei stood up straight and said with righteous indignation, "No one! Your Majesty, since you have appointed me as the Judicial Celestial, I naturally have to remain loyal to my duty, enforce the order of the Heavenly Rules, and guard the majesty of the Heavenly Court. It is my responsibility." His expression was one of unflinching determination. Hao Tian said in a cold voice, "Do you think you could break through my protective barrier?" Zi Yunlei shouted angrily, "Your Majesty, since ancient times, those who follow the Tao are aided by many, while those who lose it are aided by few. Do not deceive yourself." Hao Tian’s gaze sharpened, and an uncontrollable terrifying aura instantly poured out. Boom~ the entire Heavenly Court trembled slightly, auspiciousness dissipated, and a terrifying killing intent enveloped the sky above the Heavenly Court. Hundreds and thousands of Immortal Gods were startled and shrunk their heads, fear apparent in their eyes. Zi Yunlei fell to his knees with a thump, lying on the ground, sweating cold sweat, enveloped by immense fear, shivering uncontrollably. "Speak, who is it?" The majestic voice echoed like Heavenly Sound, intimidating Zi Yunlei’s heart and mind. Zi Yunlei’s face twitched, and through gritted teeth he said, "Since Your Majesty disregards the Heavenly Rules, I hereby resign from my position as Judicial Celestial and leave the Heavenly Court." The voice of the Heavenly Emperor Hao Tian turned cold, "If you refuse to speak, then you may as well die!" Zi Yunlei suddenly looked up, shouting in alarm, "I’ll speak, you cannot kill me, the person who bid me to act is not someone you can afford to offend." A flash of firelight crossed Hao Tian’s eyes, and Zi Yunlei’s body instantly ignited with the Destruction Divine Fire, burning his physical body and Primordial Spirit from the inside out. "Ah~" Zi Yunlei let out a pained scream, rolling on the ground, and in an instant, the agonizing cries ceased abruptly. Zi Yunlei lay on the ground, the Destruction Divine Fire gradually extinguishing, his physical body suddenly collapsed into a heap of ashes scattered on the ground. Hao Tian took deep breaths, sitting in the chair, after a period of silence, he said, "Summon the Marshal of the Heavenly Canopy to see me." After a moment, a big man dressed in Divine Armor and wearing a red cape walked in. With a thud~ he placed his fists together and bowed, saying solemnly, "Tianpeng greets Your Majesty!" The Jade Emperor, expressionless, said, "Judicial Celestial Zi Yunlei failed to cultivate his disposition, fell into the evil path, and eventually met his demise through demonic possession, consumed by flames. Communicate this to all in the Heavenly Court as a warning." Marshal Tianpeng responded with a fist-bow, "Yes!" "The Eldest Princess Yaoji descended to the mortal world on her own accord, mated with a mortal man, and gave birth to two sons and one daughter, committing a heinous crime against the Heavenly Rules. I have already suppressed her under Taoshan, but her two sons and one daughter remain at large. I order you to capture them and bring them to justice, to uphold the Heavenly Rules!" The expression on Marshal Tianpeng’s face stiffened, this difficult and thankless task, how did it fall upon me? "Tianpeng, did you hear me?" Marshal Tianpeng quickly bowed his head and shouted, "Your servant obeys!" The voice of the Heavenly Emperor Hao Tian softened, "Tianpeng, you must ’devote yourself’ to this task, make sure to capture the three of them as soon as possible to uphold the Heavenly Rules, and don’t be a failure like Zi Yunlei." Marshal Tianpeng nodded and said, "Your servant understands what must be done." The Heavenly Emperor Hao Tian waved his hand and said wearily, "You may leave." "Your servant takes his leave!" Marshal Tianpeng bowed and turned to walk out, his armor imposing and his cape flying behind him, a gallant figure. Hao Tian spoke, "Taibai!" Gold Star Taibai entered from outside, his horsetail whisk resting on his arm, he bowed and said softly, "Your Majesty!" "Arrange for Divine Generals to guard Taoshan. No Human Immortals, nor Immortals and Demons shall come near." Gold Star Taibai lowered his head and said, "Yes!" Hao Tian sighed and said, "Arrange for a team of Goddesses to go down and closely monitor Yaoji. They must not make any mistakes and should also attend to her daily needs." "This old servant understands." "Arrange it then!" "As you command!" Gold Star Taibai stood up and walked towards the outside. Hao Tian was silent for a moment before suddenly slamming his hand onto the stone table beside him, which exploded into pieces. His face turned iron blue, and the more he thought about it, the more stifled he felt, with a flame of anger pressing on his heart. Bai Jin walked out from the side and said, "Senior Hao Tian, why did you kill him? Could it be that you haven’t found out who’s behind him?" Hao Tian said coldly, "No need to ask anymore. Who else could it be if not those few Saints and elder brothers?" Bai Jin opened his mouth but didn’t know what to say. Judging from the current situation, Senior Hao Tian’s speculation seemed to be correct. Since Zi Yunlei claimed that the person behind him was someone even Hao Tian could not afford to offend, then it could only be the Saints. Unsure whether it was Master or Master’s master, or perhaps Senior Master. Princess Yaoji walked out from the Divine Palace, discontentedly saying, "Hao Tian, what do you mean by letting Tianpeng chase and kill those three children?" "There are two reasons: one is to shut the mouths of the Primordial Immortals, and secondly, it is to apply pressure on them, so they can grow rapidly." Princess Yaoji said angrily, "Yaoji has already been suppressed, isn’t that enough?" Hao Tian shook his head and said, "Not enough! The Heavenly Rules are the foundation of the Heavenly Court; merely suppressing Yaoji will not convince them." Princess Yaoji furiously said, "If they’re not convinced, then so be it. Why should we care? Sending Heavenly Generals and Heavenly Soldiers to kill those three pitiful children, how will we face Yaoji in the future?!" Hao Tian tried to persuade her helplessly, "Wanjin, this is for their own good. They can only grow faster through trials. Given their background, they are destined to face turbulence from all sides in the future and cannot live peaceably. Only by making them stronger can we offer them the best protection." Princess Yaoji frowned as she looked at Hao Tian. Hao Tian earnestly said, "They are Yaoji’s children; how could I harm them?" Princess Yaoji flicked her sleeves and said angrily, "Don’t regret this later," before turning away and leaving. Hao Tian heaved a helpless sigh, feeling both physically and mentally exhausted, then turned to Bai Jin and said, "Nephew, I have a favor to ask of you?" "Senior Hao Tian, you’re too polite; just say it." "I would like you to take Jiao’er as your disciple." "Yang Jiao?" Hao Tian nodded and said, "Yes!" Bai Jin hesitated and said, "Senior Hao Tian, Yang Jiao is Princess Yaoji’s child; by all accounts, he should call me ’elder brother.’" "Why should we cultivators care about these things? Hasn’t Long Ji also taken you as his master?" Bai Jin thought it over and realized that it made sense! Long Ji was already his disciple, and one more Yang Jiao wouldn’t make much difference. Could Yang Jiao be worse than Yang Jian? He immediately nodded and said, "If Senior Hao Tian asks this of me, then I shall politely comply. I took a liking to the child Yang Jiao at first glance." Hao Tian showed a trace of a smile and said, "Tianpeng will be chasing them through the Primordial World for ten years as their trial. After ten years, you may accept him as your disciple." Bai Jin nodded and said, "Alright!" Many things were happening in the Heavenly Court at the moment, and Bai Jin did not stay long either. He soon left the Heavenly Court with Long Ji and Jingwei. ... In the Lower Realm’s Primordial World, within the ruined Yang Family Village, three children woke amidst the rubble, looking around to find only desolation. Their village had vanished without a trace. Memories of the horrific scene surfaced in their minds; all the villagers had died in the massacre by the Heavenly Soldiers, their father was slain, and now their mother was missing. Fear and bewilderment filled the children’s hearts. Woo woo~ Yang Chan rubbed her eyes and cried out loudly, "Daddy, Mommy, I want Daddy, I want Mommy." Yang Jiao and Yang Jian were also holding back tears. Having lost both parents, they felt overwhelmed with panic. But seeing their crying sister, the two boys could only try to stay strong.
