Chapter 496 A Visitor from Heaven! Deep Sibling Affection?
Upon hearing this, Yang Chan quickly shook her head and said:
"Of course not, Mother."
Chen Changsheng, who was present, couldn't help but smile slightly after hearing the conversation between the mother and daughter.
"Um?"
Just then, he suddenly sensed something, and immediately raised his eyes to look into the void.
Seeing this, Yao Ji and Yang Chan also looked over.
Upon closer inspection, a golden auspicious cloud appeared to be drifting down from the clouds in the sky.
And standing on those clouds was a white-haired, white-bearded celestial official.
The old celestial official, holding a whisk, was none other than the celestial official from the Heavenly Court who delivered imperial edicts.
Before long, he descended from the clouds and landed in the courtyard of the Yang family's old residence.
Upon seeing the newcomer, Yang Chan's expression changed drastically, and she became immediately on guard.
Chen Changsheng saw this and remained calm.
After a slight pause, the old celestial official's gaze sharpened, landing directly on Fairy Yao Ji, and he bowed respectfully, saying:
"This humble fairy greets Princess Yaoji!"
Upon hearing this, Yao Ji frowned slightly, glanced coldly at the old immortal official, and then replied:
"I am no longer the eldest princess of Heaven."
Seeing Yao Ji speak in anger, the old immortal official smiled awkwardly and quickly said:
"Princess Yaoji, no matter what, you and His Majesty the Jade Emperor are blood relatives, that is an indisputable fact."
Yao Ji was taken aback, but did not dwell on the matter with the old immortal official. She asked indifferently:
"Speak!"
"What is it?"
The old immortal official didn't keep them in suspense and answered directly:
"I am here on the orders of the Jade Emperor to invite the three of you to the Heavenly Court."
After hearing what the old immortal official said, Yao Ji was slightly surprised, as were Chen Changsheng and Yang Chan who were standing beside her.
"Why has my elder brother summoned us to the Heavenly Court at this time?"
Yao Ji murmured softly, her brows furrowed with confusion.
In the previous battle at Peach Mountain, after Haotian descended, he used the Heavenly Emperor Seal to assist Chen Changsheng and finally broke through the seal and restrictions within Peach Mountain.
That's how Yao Ji was able to escape her predicament.
Before that, Yao Ji had always harbored doubts about Haotian.
Even though Haotian had told her many things, Yaoji was still somewhat hesitant to believe them.
But after the battle at Peach Mountain, Yao Ji finally understood that her elder brother Haotian was not as heartless as she had imagined.
Over the years, he had been patient and patient until he met Chen Changsheng. The two conspired together to set up a plan in the West and finally succeeded in rescuing him!
Just as Yao Ji was lost in thought, Yang Chan suddenly turned to look at Chen Changsheng and asked softly:
"Husband, is something... alright?"
Upon hearing this, Chen Changsheng smiled slightly and replied:
Don't worry!
"Nothing will happen."
"My mother-in-law escaped from Taoshan, which is witnessed by all the saints."
"I don't think anyone will dare to say anything about this anymore."
After Chen Changsheng said that, Yang Chan felt a little relieved and then looked at Yao Ji.
"call!"
Catching Yang Chan's gaze, Yao Ji took a deep breath and said with a sigh:
Let's go!
"Over the years, things haven't been easy for my brother either."
Seeing that Yao Ji agreed to go to the Heavenly Court, the old celestial official secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
On the way here, he was very worried that he wouldn't be able to persuade Yao Ji to come. If that happened, he wouldn't know how to explain himself back to the Heavenly Court!
Without further ado, the four of them transformed into streaks of light and headed straight for the Heavenly Realm.
……
Before long, Chen Changsheng and his two companions arrived at the Lingxiao Palace of the Heavenly Court, led by the old immortal official.
At this moment, inside the Lingxiao Palace, the civil and military officials of the Heavenly Court stood on both sides, each with a solemn expression.
The Jade Emperor sat atop the Nine-Dragon Throne, surrounded by an unparalleled imperial majesty that ruled over the Three Realms.
"Strange, His Majesty summoned us here, but why did he not say why?"
"What's going on?"
"Has something serious happened?"
"..."
Seeing that Haotian remained silent, all the celestial officials and generals in the hall began to speculate among themselves.
Just then, the old immortal official's voice came from inside the hall:
"Your Majesty, I hereby report."
"Princess Yaoji and the others have arrived!"
Upon hearing these words, all the celestial officials were shocked and their faces were filled with astonishment.
"this?"
"Yao Ji?"
"What happened?"
Why did she come to Heaven?
"Judging from this, it means... His Majesty summoned him to the Heavenly Court?"
"..."
Just as the celestial officials were at a loss and confused, the old celestial official led Chen Changsheng and the other two into the Lingxiao Palace.
As soon as they stepped into the main hall, all eyes turned to Chen Changsheng and his companions.
Chen Changsheng didn't care about this.
On the contrary, Yao Ji and Yang Chan, suddenly being the focus of so many eyes, seemed a little uncomfortable.
"That's... Chen Changsheng?"
"He actually came too!"
"It was he who split open Peach Mountain to rescue Fairy Yao Ji!"
"This young man is a disciple of Zhao Gongming, the senior disciple of the outer sect of the Jie Sect, and is highly regarded by the Tongtian Sect Master, who even bestowed upon him the Qingping Sword, the sacred sword!"
"I heard that he has only been practicing cultivation for a few decades."
"To have reached the late stage of the Great Luo Golden Immortal realm in such a short time is simply defying the heavens!"
"The key point is that he's still human!"
"..."
The celestial officials exchanged secrets, even more shocked by Chen Changsheng's appearance in the Heavenly Court.
After all, the strength that Chen Changsheng displayed in the earlier battle at Peach Mountain had shocked many powerful beings in the primordial world.
Before long, Chen Changsheng and his two companions arrived in front of the hall amidst the astonished gazes of many celestial officials.
"Your Majesty, my younger sister Yao Ji greets you."
Before ascending the throne, Yao Ji bowed deeply to Haotian.
The resentment he felt towards Haotian had already dissipated when Haotian used the Heavenly Emperor Seal to help Chen Changsheng split open Peach Mountain!
"Greetings, Your Majesty the Jade Emperor!"
At the same time, Chen Changsheng and Yang Chan also bowed to Haotian.
On the imperial throne, Haotian's eyes flashed with a complex emotion upon seeing this, but he feigned calmness and said:
"No need for such formalities!"
As Haotian said this, there was a slight, almost imperceptible tremor in his voice.
Then, his gaze sharpened, and he looked directly at Yao Ji:
"younger sister."
"These years have been a time of suffering for you."
"As the Heavenly Emperor, it is my fault that I failed to protect you."
Upon hearing Haotian's words, Yaoji quickly shook her head and whispered:
"Brother, it's not your fault."
"If you have to blame someone, it's because I was naive back then and got tricked by others."
"My brother has done everything he could to protect his sister."
Upon hearing Haotian and Yaoji's conversation, all the celestial officials in the hall displayed unusual expressions.
When Haotian summoned them earlier, the celestial officials thought something major had happened.
Upon their arrival, Haotian said nothing and simply told them to wait quietly inside the hall.
Not long after, Chen Changsheng and the other two were brought into the Lingxiao Palace.
"What exactly does Your Majesty mean?"
"Are they trying to show us their close sibling relationship?"
"..."
The celestial officials hesitated inwardly, completely unaware of Haotian's intentions.
