Chapter 677: Stay Out of Fairy Business (36)
Star Lord Tianyang, in his reincarnated mortal identity, is Jiaang Zirong. In fact, his real name is also Jiaang Zirong. These Immortals descend to the mortal world with schemes and preparations.
When Star Lord Tianyang returned to the Heavenly Realm, reviewing past events, he realized his scheme had failed. He hadn’t anticipated that the one from the Immortal Grass Garden would exit seclusion early, and was extremely angry about Yuling being with mortals.
If he had known the other party would exit seclusion early and so decisively extract Yuling’s Spiritual Pearl, stripping her of her immortal power, he would never have schemed so hastily.
During this reincarnation, he not only gained nothing, but faced crises, relying solely on his own vigilance. Upon returning, he even lost a bit of his status, and lately, he has been focused on cultivation to recover the lost status.
He’s anticipated that this matter won’t end well, and soon the one from the Immortal Grass Garden will definitely come to trouble him.
There’s no way to hide this matter, and the Heavenly Emperor will surely banish him to the mortal world to suffer for several lifetimes before resolving it.
"Star Lord, Star Lord, it’s terrible news."
The Immortal Child, knowing of Qiann Yan’s arrival, rushed in frantically to deliver the message, his robe in disarray, no longer having the usual composure, and his face was pale beyond belief, his speech trembling.
Star Lord Tianyang was just about to rebuke the Immortal Child for his embarrassing display, when the child’s face flushed slightly, eyes betraying fear, and breathlessly said: "That Venerable from the Immortal Grass Garden has arrived."
After saying this, the Immortal Child seemed to lose all his strength, collapsing to the ground, unable to support himself.
Star Lord Tianyang was shocked: so soon?
Coming personally!
Could they be planning to personally take him to see the Heavenly Emperor? This time the embarrassment would be overwhelming.
Despite this, Star Lord Tianyang had no intention of escaping.
With them having come to his residence, where else could he run to? No matter how vast the Heavenly Realm, he couldn’t escape it; better to obediently go with them to see the Heavenly Emperor.
Suffer through several lifetimes if needed, he estimated he might even get beaten.
Fortunately, he’s under the Heavenly Emperor’s jurisdiction, so he wouldn’t lose his life completely.
Recalling the previous scheme, large beads of sweat continued to slide down his cheek.
He let out a long breath, sat back down, and awaited the arrival of those outside.
When Qiann Yan came in, she saw Star Lord Tianyang in a position ready to be slaughtered, with no intention of struggling.
"Greetings, Venerable." Star Lord Tianyang dared not remain seated, he walked to Qiann Yan, controlling his trembling body and respectfully bowing, his waist bending close to parallel with the ground.
Faced alone with this Venerable, claiming not to be scared would be a lie.
The other party rarely appears and is indifferent to worldly affairs, but after all, they are a Venerable, their power not weaker than the Heavenly Emperor.
Now he has committed an offense against them, how could he not be afraid?
Qiann Yan: "Jiaang Zirong?"
Star Lord Tianyang was chilled by the cold tone, his scalp prickling, his voice trembling uncontrollably: "Jiaang Zirong is at fault and is willing to go with the Venerable to confess to the Heavenly Emperor."
"Did you conspire with several others to collect tales from the mortal world, scheme Yuling and the others to descend, deceive them for their Spiritual Pearls, was there such a matter?"
Jiaang Zirong fell to his knees, unable to bear it any longer; even if the other did not intentionally suppress him, he couldn’t stand upright.
"Jiaang Zirong acknowledges his mistake."
"Good to recognize your mistake."
Qiann Yan drew her great sword, and before Jiaang Zirong could react, he was cut into soul flying and scattering, his final consciousness hearing Qiann Yan say: "Were you merely scheming against Yuling? You were merely pawns for the Heavenly Emperor to scheme against me."
Jiaang Zirong wanted to say something but could no longer, how did she know?
