However, the surrounding crowd listened with fear and trepidation.
They almost thought they were listening to a horror story.
Within the Heavenly Court, there was actually someone who dared to provoke the Prison God? And even flirted with the Prison God's woman? And even dared to directly rush to the Star Palace to wreck the place?
Seeing Nezha ferociously escorting Marshal Tianpeng, and recalling what happened last night, the crowd cast contemptuous and pitying glances at Marshal Tianpeng.
This Marshal Tianpeng was truly out of his mind.
Wasn't this courting death?
Sure enough, the Jade Emperor's expression grew darker and darker.
The Prison God was the Jade Emperor's confidant, and the Jade Emperor already knew that Fairy Nishang and the Prison God had a very deep personal relationship; the Jade Emperor was even ready to prepare a congratulatory gift for Chu Hao.
Now, his most important confidant was being bullied?
How could he allow that?!
The Jade Emperor's face was gloomy, and the aura of a Quasi-Saint emanated from his body, like a furious primordial beast.
"Rebellious, rebellious! Bold Marshal Tianpeng, flirting with Chang'e, attacking the Star Palace, is tantamount to treason!"
"Guards, shatter his Immortal Infant, exile his True Spirit to the River Styx, so that he has no place to stand in the Three Realms and Five Elements, the Six Paths of Reincarnation!"
The crowd on the field was startled.
This time, the Jade Emperor was truly enraged. In tens of thousands of years, they had never heard the Jade Emperor issue such an angry judgment.
Even the Three Holy Mother Yang Chan, who had caused the Jade Emperor so much embarrassment back then, was only suppressed under a mountain.
One could imagine how angry the Jade Emperor was at Marshal Tianpeng.
Marshal Tianpeng's face turned ashen instantly, filled with panic.
He clearly heard the Grand Supreme Elderly Lord say that even if he had some great calamity in the future, it would not lead to his death. The Grand Supreme Elderly Lord even pointed out that there would be a great opportunity at the Peach Banquet.
But looking at the situation today, his Primordial Spirit would be exiled to the River Styx, not entering the Three Realms and Five Elements, the Six Paths of Reincarnation. This was ten thousand times more miserable than death!
This was a great opportunity my ass! This was a great disaster worse than death!
Dying at most meant falling into the Six Paths of Reincarnation. The worst would be falling into the animal realm and becoming a pig or dog, but at least that was still life.
But in the River Styx, the Primordial Spirit would forever float within it. The burning of the River Styx on the Primordial Spirit and soul was a hundred times more painful than the most cruel punishment. Moreover, the turbid Qi of the River Styx was difficult for even a Grand Golden Immortal to wash away.
Marshal Tianpeng collapsed on the spot, his face filled with panic.
"No, no! Don't exile my Primordial Spirit to the River Styx, no!"
"Your Majesty, please, spare me, spare me! I won't dare to do it again!"
"Lord Prison God, I really didn't mean to bump into the Star Palace, and every brick and tile of your Star Palace is safe and sound. My crime doesn't deserve death!"
Marshal Tianpeng pleaded desperately.
Chu Hao's eyes were icy cold. Although Chu Hao vaguely sensed that Marshal Tianpeng's attack on the Star Palace and flirting with Chang'e were not his original intentions, and he might even have been deceived.
But Chu Hao didn't care. Chu Hao needed an explanation.
The fright that Fairy Nishang suffered was more than enough to warrant Marshal Tianpeng's Primordial Spirit being eternally condemned to the River Styx.
The immortals present dared not say a word, secretly nervous.
"It's over, the Prison God is really angry this time."
"That Tianpeng is really damned. Bullying Chang'e is really courting death. Even if the Prison God doesn't punish him, I will personally teach him a lesson!"
"However… I'm afraid it won't be so smooth. Have you forgotten? That Marshal Tianpeng has never relied on his own abilities."
"That's right, but is this small pawn worth that person coming in person?"
The immortals whispered to each other, but privately felt that it was not so simple.
The Jade Emperor did not care about the person behind Marshal Tianpeng at all and waved his hand directly, "Guards! Drag him down!"
But at this moment, a loud shout came from outside:
"Your Majesty, please wait, Your Majesty, please wait!"
Everyone turned their heads sharply and saw a gray-haired, kind-faced old man in a Bagua robe rushing in from outside the Hall of Universal Brightness.
The crowd was shocked.
"The Grand Supreme Elderly Lord has actually come!"
When Chu Hao saw the Grand Supreme Elderly Lord coming, he couldn't help but narrow his eyes. It seemed that everything was as he had guessed.
The Jade Emperor frowned when he saw the Grand Supreme Elderly Lord coming in.
However, as the Lord of the Three Realms, appointed by the Hongjun Ancestor, he could argue with the Grand Supreme Elderly Lord based on reason.
"Elder Lord, what is the purpose of your visit?"
The Jade Emperor's expression was indifferent.
The Grand Supreme Elderly Lord glanced at Marshal Tianpeng, with a hint of cunning in his eyes, seemingly planning something.
Marshal Tianpeng quickly and frantically shouted to the Grand Supreme Elderly Lord:
"Elder Lord, save me, Elder Lord, save me! I really didn't mean to offend Lord Prison God. Please save my life, Elder Lord!"
The Grand Supreme Elderly Lord took a deep breath and was about to speak.
However, the Jade Emperor interrupted him in advance, "If the Elder Lord wants to plead for him, then there is no need. My mind is made up! He must die!"
The Jade Emperor did not even give the Grand Supreme Elderly Lord any room to plead.
This was a great opportunity to sell a favor, and not just any favor, but a Saint's favor!
But the Jade Emperor was determined to stand up for Chu Hao and kill Marshal Tianpeng. His determination made the immortals present tremble in fear.
"It seems that the Jade Emperor really regards the Prison God as a confidant, even ignoring the majesty of the Saint."
The immortals were secretly surprised.
"Your Majesty is really serious this time."
"Moreover, Your Majesty's treatment of the Prison God is simply too good, so good that it cannot be added to. He even rejected the Saint's favor."
However, everyone was also very gratified, after all, everyone had witnessed the things that the Prison God had done in the Heavenly Court. If His Majesty made the Prison God feel disheartened, then the immortals present would not know how to face the Jade Emperor.
The Jade Emperor was naturally not acting on impulse. This was the Jade Emperor's way of restoring the Heavenly Court's prestige and winning people's hearts.
The Heavenly Court's prestige was now declining, and even some demon kings, as long as they had some background, dared to challenge the Heavenly Court.
Since Chu Hao took office as the Law Enforcement Prison God, he has been committed to revitalizing the court and restoring the Heavenly Court's prestige, and the results are obvious.
Don't you see how many secret losses the West has suffered under Chu Hao's hands, and even the morale of the Heavenly Court's army has stabilized a lot.
Without being polite, the Jade Emperor had already placed his hopes of revitalizing the Heavenly Court's prestige on Chu Hao.
Under this circumstance, for the Jade Emperor to exchange the Prison God's resentment for a favor that could only be redeemed in who knows what year or month, only a fool would do that!
