The Jade Ascension Pavilion of the Celestial Realm also had its own way of confronting the old man in the moon.
Why entangle the disciple of a sage and the daughter of the Emperor of Heaven? Who is the mastermind and who is the accomplice? Are they preparing to plot against the dominion of the Emperor Jia Tian over the three realms? Is it their intention to disrupt the law of heaven and earth in the primordial chaos, welcoming extraterrestrial chaotic demons to rule over it?
She imitated the County magistrate's courtroom manner, setting up a desk and sitting behind it. With a loud "click," she slammed the wooden bench hard: "Confess!"
"Suffering a wrong, Sir! I only drink two gulps of spirit wine daily. I have never dared to plot against heaven and earth. All extra-duties beyond my jurisdiction, I have never dared to cross even a half step!"
The Matchmaker cries out in innocence, "Overshadow the three realms? Me? Do I even qualify?"
What's this talk about chaotic demons from outside the domain? I've never heard of such things.
The Phoenix isn't intent on pinning a hat on him, the crucial point is to find evidence of the Fu Yuan Immortal Sect master's crime.
"Quickly, who is your accomplice?!"
"I'm wronged! I'm truly wronged!"
"Who is the mastermind behind you?"
"Great celestial, the small one has truly not been influenced by anyone! Innocence!”
Zhu Ganglie was scraping the wall, while the thin celestial soldier was wielding a staff of water and fire, striking the Matchmaker's buttocks fiercely.
Just as the inquest was in the middle, the door to the Six-Heavenly-Palaces Hall was suddenly pushed open.
"Absurd, simply absurd! Stop! Cease your actions! Give the old man a stop!" The hurried Fu Yuan Immortal Sect master pushed aside the thin celestial soldier and stood in front of the Matchmaker.
The thin celestial soldier looked at the phoenix, as if to ask, "What should we do now?"
He's not a soldier of the Six-Heavenly-Palaces Hall. Today, nearly all celestial soldiers are in the Southern Capital. As a temporary worker loaned here to assist, he is unlikely to confront the Heavenly officials like Fu Yuan Immortal Sect master due to his status as a "temporary" celestial.
Zhu Ganglie was also hunching his neck, scraping the wall skin on the side, pretending as if he didn't exist.
The phoenix had met Fu Yuan Immortal Sect master before, but the sect master had not seen the phoenix.
To differentiate from its true form and prevent the true form from shifting blame to its clone, the phoenix adjusted its appearance slightly during the last reincarnation. It has about 70% similarity to its original form, with more refined features and a painted appearance that gives it a youthful look compared to the Deng Chuanyu body, which resembles that of a college graduate, while here it's nearly as young as a high school student just blooming.
In terms of actual age, the phoenix is indeed too young to be taken seriously.
The Matchmaker hugged Fu Yuan Immortal Sect master's calf and cried, "Saving the old immortal, saving the old immortal! How dare I go against fate? I just couldn't help myself!"
Fu Yuan Immortal Sect master looked extremely angry, as if defending his friend's honor, pointing at the phoenix and scolding: "Who are you, why are you making it difficult for my old friend."
The phoenix remained seated without moving, her back straight, quietly watching him without saying a word.
Fu Yuan Immortal Sect master raised his voice: "I'm asking you a question, are you deaf?"
The phoenix was truly surprised that despite being in heaven, Fu Yuan the old dog still dared to step out. What is he relying on?
She knows that the Emperor of the Heavens is aware of the inside story of this matter, but she is unsure whether Fu Yuan knows that the Emperor of the Heavens knows. According to her guess, he should not know.
The Emperor of the Heavens believes that the laws and regulations of heaven are more important than anything else. As the phoenix works in heaven, she naturally has to follow the rules and regulations.
Suspicion alone is not enough; concrete evidence must be found, or Fu Yuan's own confession.
The phoenix sighed in secret, truly troublesome!
"I am the newly appointed Lord of the Six-Heavenly-Stars. I was sent by the king to investigate the matter of the Heavenly Princess's red thread, old man. Are you involved in this case as well?"
Regardless of the situation, putting a hat on him first is definitely correct.
"Disrespectful!" Fu Yuan Immortal Sect master was used to being domineering and looked down upon the phoenix, who he regarded as a "small immortal" who had come from who knows where. Though he felt a bit familiar with her, he didn't give it much thought. Fu Yuan did not favor women, and in his eyes, all immortals looked the same.
"I am standing up for my friend! You dare speak ill of me!" Fu Yuan Immortal Sect master looked at her with a bit of nervousness, unable to help but ask: "What evidence do you have? If there is none, then quickly let me go, or else I will report you to the Hall of Supreme Heaven!"
The phoenix laughed: "Evidence? There is a trace of unknown power left on the red thread, and who exactly it is can be figured out with the Emperor's will, as long as it is requested."
Thought she was so confident, but that's all? Fu Yuan Immortal Sect master's heart, which had been hanging in the balance, relaxed instantly. He said indifferently.
"It seems that you, the star lord, are young and lack experience. You must be taught a lesson today. The world of emotions is the most complex thing in the world. The word 'love' has puzzled countless devoted men and women, and defeated many heroes and heroes. As long as one passes by the Hall of the Matchmaker, whether it's humans, immortals, or ghosts, every red thread will pick up a trace of its aura."
He chuckled mockingly: "If the star lord uses this as a basis for judgment, then I estimate that more than half of the immortals in the celestial realm will be suspects."
To substantiate his words, the Matchmaker beside him also hurriedly nodded: "Reporting to the star lord, what the immortal said is very true. The old man acknowledges that his social circle is quite extensive. Daily, my three or five friends often enjoy drinks at the Hall of the Matchmaker. If we were to convict them based on this..."
He wanted to say that he disagreed, but dared not speak harshly, as he only needed to express his disagreement.
Fu Yuan Immortal Sect master glared fiercely at the phoenix, waiting to see what she had to say.
"If the red thread can pick up celestial aura, then can the source object also pick up celestial aura? Immortal Fu Yuan, with your vast experience and knowledge, take a look and see what this is!"
The phoenix opened her hand, and the Red Sphere of Nuwa appeared out of thin air: "Passing by this precious object, you may leave your aura behind?"
Not even the Emperor of the Heavens could leave an aura on this supreme primitive immaterial treasure without personally touching it.
In fact, all the red threads in the Matchmaker's Hall are extensions of the Red Sphere of Nuwa. As Fu Yuan said, there are many immortals coming and going in the Matchmaker's Hall. The red thread, as a symbol of love, is the most complex thing, picking up a lot of celestial aura. It's difficult to find evidence on the side of the Matchmaker's marriage red threads.
However, if we trace back to the source, there will definitely be a "original record" in the Red Sphere of Nuwa. The Red Sphere of Nuwa is now in her hand.
However, this is theoretically something that can be found, but the actual workload will explode. It's estimated that if the phoenix were to find it herself, by the time she finishes looking through the hundred million million red ropes of marital fate in the Red Sphere of Nuwa, her journey to the West would have ended.
If Nuwa were to look for it? The phoenix felt that her true form's teacher was not the kind of particularly diligent sage.
Fu Yuan Immortal Sect master did not understand the key issue here. He only knew that the Red Sphere of Nuwa was the source of all red threads, but he had never seen such a precious primordial jade artifact as the Red Sphere of Nuwa.
"This is the treasure of a sage! How could it be in your hands?!" He looked disbelieving, questioning how a "small immortal" could possess the treasure of a sage.
