The moon-themed celestial being, Fei Yue Xian Zi, had a pale face, and couldn't believe her eyes, stumbling backwards in shock.
It's true. She didn't understand why a mortal was so good that the Shennan Shenjun should love her and protect her in every way?
The Emperor of Heaven watched as the once aloof and self-possessed Shennan Shengjun had changed into such a state, feeling deeply disappointed. Seeing him still blocking the way, he also became angry.
"Chu Yuansui, quickly step aside. Don't make the same mistake again."
Chu Yuan gritted his teeth tightly, with stubbornness and pain in his eyes. He spoke in a deep voice, "Emperor, Wuena is innocent. Please show mercy."
The Emperor's eyes grew colder and colder, speaking in a stern voice, "There is a difference between the celestial and mortal realms. This is the law of heaven. The mortal woman dares to defy fate. She cannot be forgiven. Chu Yuan, if you don't move aside, don't blame the emperor for being heartless."
Chu Yuan's countenance was filled with pain, and his expression struggled. He did love Wuena, but he lacked the courage to oppose the entire celestial realm for her.
Of course, it's also impossible to give up everything one already has for the other.
In the end, he slowly lowered his head and silently retreated to the side, no longer blocking their way.
He could only watch helplessly as the heavenly warriors and generals departed, his heart feeling as if it was being torn apart.
Jiang Wanruo is just a mortal. Even if Yu Yao used magic to make her extremely ugly, almost unrecognizable from her original appearance, the magical mirror could reveal who was human and who was a ghost in an instant.
However, in just a moment, Jiang Wanruo was grabbed by the heavenly soldiers and taken to the celestial realm.
Soon after, she was roughly escorted to the crowd in front of them.
But when everyone present saw the face of Jiang Wanruo, the atmosphere instantly froze.
Although it was obvious that Jiang Wanruo had been under the influence of a spell, she was still so hideous that it made people feel nauseous.
Her face was a sight of shock and horror, covered with boils and pus-filled blisters, which oozed a disgusting, yellowish pus. Her figure was so bloated that being called "bloated" was an understatement; she looked no different from a sow.
She looked like she weighed at least 300 pounds or more.
This scene caused discomfort and disgust among all the gods, demons, and monsters present, who all casted shocked and repulsed looks.
"How is this even possible?"
Chu Yuan Shengjun's expression was hard to believe. Looking at such a face, even he was extremely uncomfortable.
Even more, he felt nauseous and almost wanted to vomit, but he was desperately trying to hold it back.
But upon closer inspection, one could tell that Wuena had been cursed, and her face turned an iron blue.
"Yuqi, what have you done?"
Chu Yuan's gaze turned angry toward Yu Yao, and his expression was extremely unpleasant. His voice was gritted between his teeth.
Yu Yao contained her laughter, blinking innocently as if she didn't know what the other was saying, "Chu Yuan, you're talking nonsense. What does it matter to me if she's like this? Maybe she's been doing too much wrong and is suffering divine retribution."
Yeming heard her words and couldn't help but smile wryly and helplessly. He shook his head affectionately with his eyes, but didn't say anything.
He glanced at Jiang Wanruo, scowled in disgust, and quickly turned his eyes away.
She is really ugly, even more so than the most repulsive demon in the lowest abyss of the ten thousand demon pits.
He wants to find Little Goddess to wash his eyes.
"You..."
Chu Yuan Shengjun's face turned even more unpleasant, as if he wanted to say something. But then he heard a loud and unrestrained laughter.
"Ha ha ha, Shennan Shenjun, your taste is truly unique."
The demon king Mo Yan lay sluggishly on the black clouds, laughing heartily, and his laughter carried a touch of mockery and ridicule.
That's just too funny.
Although he knows that the woman was cursed, he still can't help but laugh.
So ugly, I wonder how Chu Yuan can even think of having a relationship with her. Hahaha
The demon king of the demon world, Bai Chang, was even more exaggerated. He held his mouth and nose with one hand and fanned himself with the other, as if he wanted to dispel the sudden feeling of nausea.
He made a retching gesture while laughing, "Chu Yuan, Chu Yuan, your taste... well, it's really enlightening."
Even the usually calm King of the Underworld showed a rare smile, laughing lightly and shaking his head.
Jiang Wanruo was already scared to death. She was surrounded by gods, after all. Despite the laughter of the others, she couldn't help but feel embarrassed and ashamed.
She cried with tears rolling down her cheeks like blooming flowers, wanting to walk towards Chu Yuan. However, as soon as she took a step forward, she fell off the cloud layer.
"Aa... Husband, save me..."
A heart-wrenching scream cut through the clouds.
Everyone turned their gazes towards the cloud sea below to see where the person had fallen.
The two celestial soldiers who had been escorting Jiang Wanruo looked embarrassed. After realizing what had happened, they hurriedly flew down the sea of clouds to save her.
It would be impossible to let this mortal fall and become a meat pie.
But someone was faster than them. In the instant Jiang Wanruo fell down, Shennan Shenjun had already flown out.
In just a moment, he landed with Jiang Wanruo safely on a thick cloud, the largest one he had deliberately chosen, which seemed to be bathed in a layer of soft light.
White jade steps winding out, crystal clear and transparent, each step emitting a faint light, not only incredibly stable but also adding a touch of dreamlike luxury.
With these steps, Jiang Wanruo could dance on them.
The gods and immortals around looked at her with complex expressions.
Fei Yue Xian Zi's eyes were filled with jealousy and anger, as she was jealous to the point of madness within.
Ah ah. What's so good about this ugly mortal? Why does she deserve such care from Shennan Shenjun? It's driving her crazy with jealousy.
"Shennan Shenjun is indeed considerate to the minutest detail, even preparing these cloud steps for her. Why not bestow her with cultivation and let her become an immortal right on the spot?"
Yeming's mouth curled into a disdainful and playful smile, coldly mocking her.
Demon king Mo Yan laughed unrestrainedly, as if seeing the funniest thing in the world.
Even the four great guards by his side couldn't help but suppress a smile.
Bai Chang leisurely shook his fan and laughed happily, looking like he was enjoying the show.
Chu Yuan Shengjun's face turned dark, he knew that this move was not appropriate, but Wuena was a mortal, and here was not the celestial court, but an endless sea of clouds.
Wuena had no magical power and could not stand on the clouds. He couldn't just watch her fall to her death.
Chu Yuan Shengjun gazed at the distorted face of Wuena, twisted with fear and shame. It was truly abhorrent.
He couldn't say it wasn't disgusting. He felt a strange repulsion toward her face, completely different from the gentle and charming image she had on a regular day.
Controlling his inner discomfort, he waved his hand, and a gentle force surged from his palm, gently brushing over Jiang Wanruo's entire body.
Instantaneously, the acne and pustules on Jiang Wanruo's face vanished without a trace, replaced by a beautiful and pure face.
Her brows were slightly furrowed like distant mountains, her eyes were as clear as autumn water, her jade nose was small and delicate, and her rosy lips were unstained. Her skin was like snow, smooth and silky. Her black hair cascaded down like a waterfall, and her slender figure swayed gracefully like a weak willow in the wind, soft and seductive, arousing pity.
The crowd was taken aback. Upon closer look, she wasn't bad at all.
Even if it were not bad, she is still a mortal after all.
Fei Yue Xian Zi saw Jiang Wanruo's true face and became even more jealous in her heart. Her gaze seemed to be able to shoot fire.
The Emperor of the Heavens' gaze fell on Jiang Wanruo, and his voice, as cold as ice, broke the silence, "Mortal Jiang Wanruo, for seducing a Shennan and disturbing the order of the six realms, she is to be punished as a prostitute for ten lifetimes and never admitted into the immortals' register as a form of punishment."
His voice was cold and unquestionable.
The moment he spoke, the atmosphere in the scene erupted into a commotion.
Jiang Wanruo's face turned as pale as paper instantly. Her trembling body looked helplessly towards Shennan Shenjun.
However, Shennan Shenjun only tightened his thin lips and his eyes flashed with complexity. He didn't open his mouth to plead for mercy.
He well knew the temperament of the Emperor of the Heavens. If he asked for mercy on behalf of Wuena, she would be punished even more severely.
Perhaps she might fall into the animal realm and never be a human again. And he didn't have the courage to defy the Celestial Court for Wuena.
Yeming's lips curved into a cold smile, mocking: "Hmph, ten generations of prostitutes, the Emperor of the Heavens is truly kind-hearted. A mortal dared to try to cling to a Shennan and even aspire to replace the Godess. She should suffer eternal torment and never be reincarnated again."
The Demon King Mo Yan raised an eyebrow and smiled, "Your dark god brother, this is a formidable statement. However, the Emperor of the Heavens' punishment is indeed too lenient. The crime of this mortal woman is not small."
The ruler of the Demon World, Bai Chang, shook his fan and smiled lightly, "Yes, it's true that simply letting her go like this may not satisfy everyone. But since the Emperor of the Heavens has issued the order, it's difficult to change it."
Yu Yao watched the imposing demeanor of Yeming, her heart moving slightly.
She knew that Yeming's discontent with the punishment of Jiang Wanruo was because of her.
She flew over to Yeming's side and gently pulled his sleeve, "Alright, let it go. The matter is already settled, there's no need to continue dwelling on it."
The Emperor of the Heavens was being lenient on Jiang Wanruo out of consideration for Chu Yuan Shengjun. If he were to be too harsh, it might trigger an extreme reaction from Chu Yuan Shengjun, such as a rebellion against the Celestial Court.
Unfortunately, the Emperor of the Heavens overestimated that scoundrel.
That dog thing is very selfish. Although he loves Jiang Wanruo, he cannot sacrifice himself for her.
