I am a fairy in Journey to the West

"Overthrow the Jade Palace of the Mortal Realm! Capture the Great Emperor of the Divine Firmament alive!"

"Rebel against Heaven! Rebel against Heaven!"

Black flags surrounded Yunlan Mountain, slowly rising up the mountain like a tide.

Above the sky, a pale yellow light curtain covered the sky and earth within a thousand miles of Yunlan Mountain. Within the light curtain, sandstorms raged and fire surged, like an earthen wall surrounding the sky and land within a thousand miles of Yunlan Mountain.

That is the 'Six Earths Fire Barrier' of the Southern Harmony Six Earths Great King. Inside that light screen are the Six Harmony Immortal Soil and the Southern Bright Fire.

The Great King of Nanhe Liutu stood above the barrier and called out to the Aoyun Palace below: "I, the Great Immortal of Nanhe, request the Divine Emperor Shenxiao to appear before me."

However, no one paid any attention to him. At this time, guarding outside Aoyun Palace were more than 800 divine generals from the Western Mountain Divine Palace, as well as gods from various places temporarily gathered by Chi Ling and Hua Yue Erlang, totaling more than 300 people.

These people were temporarily organized into divine generals, totaling about 1,200.

But at this moment, as these 1,200 divine generals looked at the demon soldiers surging up from all directions below the mountain like a tidal wave, cold sweat seeped from the foreheads of each of them, and their hands unconsciously tightened their grip on their weapons.

At this moment, Chi Ling and Hua Yue Erlang walked quickly past the crowd from two different directions, shouting repeatedly, "Put the red flags on the heads! Put all the red flags on the heads!"

It was a small, triangular red flag, about the size of a palm, with a star-shaped rune drawn in bright yellow in the center.

Standing at the entrance of Aoyun Palace, Liang Nu, wearing spirit armor and with her hair tied up with a blue scarf, looked at the small red flag in her hand and, like the people around her, stuck it into her hair.

When Chi Ling and Hua Yue Erlang returned, even they had the little red flag stuck in their hair, as did Ju Ling Shen, Bao Jie, Xiu Huang, and Wu Lei Tian Jun.

Jiang Han walked past Liang Nu, noticing her somewhat nervous expression, and asked, "Are you scared?"

Ms. Liang shook her head and said, "I'm not afraid."

Jiang Han laughed and said, "Never seen such a grand scene before? I haven't either. Today has truly broadened my horizons."

Influenced by Jiang Han's relaxed demeanor, Liang Nu also stopped being tense.

At this moment, a divine general standing nearby said, "I'm afraid we're going to die here today."

Another divine general said, "What's there to be afraid of? If we die here, will the Heavenly Court treat us badly? Even if we go to the underworld, we'll be among the first to be reincarnated."

Another general said, "I'll see which bastard dares to back down a step later, or I'll strike him with my sword!"

Hearing the words of these divine generals, Jiang Han smiled and said, "With the Divine Firmament Emperor here, do you think he would let you go up there to die in vain?"

As soon as Jiang Han finished speaking, six beams of immortal light flashed in front of Aoyun Palace. Then, Liu Chenxiang, along with Feilian Hanguang King, Chongtai Jinming King, Dongji Taizi King, Beixiao Mingguang King, and Xiaoyu, arrived outside Aoyun Palace.

Meanwhile, the gods had already formed a battle formation outside the palace gates, and Liang Nu was in the group facing Liu Chenxiang and the others.

Because Liang Nu was wearing spirit armor and her attire was different from usual, and she was among a group of divine generals, Liu Chenxiang did not recognize her.

But Liang recognized Liu Chenxiang. Standing among the many divine generals, she looked up at Liu Chenxiang, but no matter what she did, she could not connect him with the boy from back then.

At this moment, Liu Chenxiang already had a trace of demonic energy on him. Perhaps the demonic energy in front of him was too strong, and some of it had tainted him.

But that didn't matter anymore. From the moment Liu Chenxiang appeared at Yunlan Mountain with his 100,000 demon soldiers, he was no different from those demons, regardless of whether he had demonic energy or not.

Liu Chenxiang and the others did not linger their gazes on the divine generals below; instead, they looked directly at a triple jade platform outside the Aoyun Palace.

Zhuang Yan sat upright on a sandalwood chair, with two boys, Bao Jie and Xiu Huang, attending him on either side, and the Five Thunder Heavenly Lords standing on either side.

Meanwhile, the Bull Demon King and the Giant Spirit God escorted the Heavenly Fox Immortal to Zhuang Yan.

"Grandma!" Xiaoyu called out. The Celestial Fox Fairy turned around and smiled. She nodded to Xiaoyu, then turned to face Zhuang Yan. "Fox Peilan greets the Divine Firmament Emperor." Although the Celestial Fox Fairy said "greeting," she did not perform any formal bowing.

The Giant Spirit God picked up his whip to strike, and Xiao Yu and Liu Chenxiang, who were in the distance, immediately became agitated, but were stopped by Fei Lian Han Guang King, "Lord of the Manor, do not be impulsive."

Liu Chenxiang was persuaded to stop, and he also stopped Xiaoyu. Xiaoyu looked at Liu Chenxiang with a puzzled expression.

Liu Chenxiang said, "Let's take a look first."

Xiaoyu turned around and saw Zhuang Yan stopping the Giant Spirit God from whipping the Heavenly Fox Immortal.

Then Zhuang Yan looked at the Celestial Fox Immortal and said, "Your mother was implicated and died from her injuries because she helped Liu Chenxiang and his son. Are you going to repeat the same mistake now?"

The Celestial Fox Immortal sneered and said, "I am doing this today to avenge my mother."

Zhuang Yan said calmly, "Your mother interfered in other people's karma and died a worthy death. But you, in order to avenge her, instigated Liu Chenxiang to rebel against Heaven and gathered demons from all directions to create chaos. This is the real heinous crime."

The Celestial Fox Immortal said, "It's nothing more than death. Even if I have to go to the eighteenth level of hell after death, I will not regret it."

Zhuang Yan said, "The laws of Heaven are strict; to violate them is certain death. You will get what you want."

After saying that, Zhuang Yan raised his hand and said, "Take the Heavenly Fox Immortal away. After we capture Liu Chenxiang and the other troublemakers, we will interrogate and execute them together."

"As you command." Two divine generals quickly stepped forward, escorting the Celestial Fox Immortal down from the high platform and into the Aoyun Palace.

At this moment, Zhuang Yan turned his gaze to Liu Chenxiang and said, "Liu Chenxiang, from the moment you and your son fled, everyone you encountered along the way helped you. Now, without exception, all of those people are dead. Are you still unable to distinguish between good and evil and unwilling to turn back?"

Liu Chenxiang said, "Great Emperor Shenxiao, I respect you as the Emperor of Heaven and do not wish to be disrespectful to you. I advise you to immediately release the Heavenly Fox Immortal and the Third Holy Mother, grant them their freedom, and then have Heaven abolish that damned Heavenly Law. If you agree to all our conditions, there will still be room for negotiation today. Otherwise, Your Majesty, you will also have to taste what it's like to be a prisoner."

"You madman, how dare you be so rude!" Chi Ling shouted.

"Chi Ling, you treacherous and despicable viper!" Liu Chenxiang cursed, "Once we capture you alive, we'll skin you alive and cut off your flesh to make soup for the brothers!"

Chi Ling sneered, "You're a defeated opponent; I'm afraid you don't have that ability."

"What if we join in?" King Chongtai Jinming asked.

Chi Ling glanced around, about to speak, when she heard Zhuang Yan speak up: "Immortal Fei Lian, True Man Chong Tai, Old Immortal Dong Ji, Immortal Bei Xiao, and that Old Immortal Nan He in the heavens, you people should have died long ago. You have been supported by the Heavenly Court for so many years and you are still not satisfied. We only sent you to undergo tribulation, yet you dared to descend to the mortal world to become demons and harm the common people."

At this point, Zhuang Yan's gaze swept over the five people one by one, and then he said, "Today is the day you face your tribulation!"

"Zhuang Yan! Don't talk nonsense!" the Great Immortal Bei Xiao cursed. "Back when we were serving the Heavenly Court, you were probably still in some woman's belly! The Heavenly Court used us and then threw us away, but you, an unknown nobody, have usurped a high position. I think the Heavenly Court is doomed! If we don't rebel today, someone else will naturally rebel tomorrow. Rather than letting others benefit in the future, why don't we grant our request today?"

“Yes,” said the Great Immortal Feilian. “Why not grant our request, then we can still be on the same side.”

The Old Immortal of the East Pole agreed, "That's right, that's the point."

Master Chongtai asked, "Great Emperor Shenxiao, do you agree?"

"Hahahaha!" Zhuang Yan couldn't help but burst into laughter after hearing this.

Immortal Feilian and the others were puzzled. After a moment, Master Chongtai asked, "What are you laughing at?"

Zhuang Yan rose to his feet amidst the gazes of the crowd and declared, "I am here by the decree of the Jade Emperor to guard the mortal realm, to wield power over all things, both today and in the future."

At this point, Zhuang Yan clenched his fist, his gaze sweeping over everyone, before he said firmly and coldly, "Anyone who dares to rebel, I dare to kill!" (End of Chapter)
