Mixed in the heavens, merits and virtues become immortals

Chapter 400 Mother-in-law, we can't...

"Chan'er, this is Qi'er..."

Gu Qing, shameless as ever, introduced the cousins.

Yang Chan was naturally a beauty of unparalleled grace, and the Seventh Princess was also one of a kind. When their eyes met, the Seventh Princess's gaze was domineering and possessive, while Yang Chan's was gentle and yielding.

"cousin."

Yang Chan bowed her head and addressed him.

"cousin."

The Seventh Princess stepped forward, took Yang Chan's hand, and said, "Gu Qing is no good. Don't be fooled by him."

The Seventh Princess spoke with great sincerity.

"Cousin, if that's the case, why did you still go and have sex with him?"

Yang Chan couldn't help but ask.

First, she made it a fait accompli, and then she said Gu Qing was no good. Her words were all about asserting her dominance. To be honest, Yang Chan didn't have any jealous thoughts. She even had some doubts about her feelings for Gu Qing. But the Seventh Princess couldn't treat her like a fool.

"Gu Qing has done a great favor for my Yang family."

Yang Chan said, "And these past few days, I've spent every day with him..."

"Gu Qing has a deep-seated grudge against my family!"

The Seventh Princess interrupted Yang Chan, her eyes red, and said, "He killed my nine brothers and refined them all. He also caused a great disturbance in the Heavenly Palace, disgracing my parents. But I don't care anymore!"

Yang Chan met the Seventh Princess's eyes. Her eyes were stubborn and obstinate, yet sincere in their affection, which made Yang Chan's heart tremble.

At this moment, the Lotus Lantern emitted light.

A day in the sky, a year in the ground.

At this very moment in Heaven, the Jade Emperor and Queen Mother, who were laughing heartily about Gu Qing and Yang Chan just a moment ago and plotting to deal with Gu Qing, turned around and glanced at the mortal realm, and their hearts sank!
Their precious daughter has become the main character!

The previous hearty laughter has now become a boomerang, piercing the Jade Emperor and the Queen Mother.

"Quick! Quick!"

The Jade Emperor waved his hands repeatedly in anger and said, "Quickly make arrangements for Gu Qing!"

He didn't want to watch anymore.

If the gods in Heaven knew about this little thing happening on Earth, they would probably be gossiping about it behind my back.

The Jade Emperor was humiliated.

The Queen Mother glared at Gu Qing in the mortal realm with hatred in her eyes... You like picking up girls, huh? Watch how I deal with you!
Song.

"The phoenix and luan jeweled tent is a magnificent sight, adorned with exquisite gold leaf. The distant mountains curve in verdant hues, and the fluttering sleeves reflect the rosy clouds. Pear blossoms, glistening with rain, vie in their allure, while peonies, shrouded in mist, display their captivating beauty. If only such enchanting beauty could move, she would be brought back to Chang Le Palace to serve the king."

Holding the Lotus Lantern, Yang Chan stood in the Nuwa Temple, gazing at the verses before her, the Lotus Lantern emitting bursts of light.

King Zhou ate too many red beans.

"This is a test given to me by the Goddess Nuwa."

Yang Chan turned around gracefully, her brows slightly furrowed. After arriving in Chaoge, Yang Chan saw the appearance of the human dynasty and witnessed the cruelty of King Zhou. She felt a pang of pity for the people.

Originally, Yang Chan's test was supposed to be to send Ruoshui back to the Heavenly Court to save the human world from disaster. However, with Gu Qing's intervention, the matter was resolved long ago. Gu Qing even fulfilled Ruoshui's wish to find someone to rely on after being lonely for thousands of years. As a result, the test for Yang Chan changed.

"It's not easy to incite a rebellion."

On this important matter, the Seventh Princess put aside her prejudices and pondered, saying, "The four lords of this land are all loyal. If we persuade them to rebel, their weapons will be turned against you."

Gu Qing nodded. Writing historical novels in ancient times was very difficult, especially when it involved the issue of dynastic change. First of all, the protagonists could not be made to harbor rebellious intentions. They had to be loyal ministers of the current emperor. Then, the emperor had to be incompetent and cruel to officials and the people. Eventually, the protagonists had to speak out for the people and rebel.

In this environment, the family of the Marquis of Xibo became extremely loyal to King Zhou and could not tolerate any talk of usurpation.

"Should we find someone to wreak havoc on King Zhou's kingdom, so that people can have a legitimate reason to attack him?"

The Seventh Princess suggested.

Daji originally did this job, but in the Investiture of the Gods, she did it until the very end and was cut up by Nuwa.

"Let's go straight to Xiqi."

Gu Qing didn't want to resort to such underhanded tactics and harm loyal officials, so he spoke directly and said, "We'll just have Xiqi send troops."

The great battle for the title of Investiture of the Gods is about to erupt. Once the fighting starts, the two groups will fight to the death, risking everything to send the other to the Investiture of the Gods list.
Xiqi.

Holding the Lotus Lantern, Yang Chan channeled her magic, and a phoenix flew across the sky above Xiqi City, crying out intermittently. Upon seeing this, the people of Xiqi City immediately bowed in submission. Before long, the words "The phoenix cries on Mount Qi, a true master has appeared" spread throughout Xiqi, and with the travel of merchants, such rumors spread even further.

"You've really caused me a lot of trouble!"

Ji Chang sat in his chair, his hands trembling, and said repeatedly, "The King must be looking for me at Fengming Qishan. Alas, I am going to be imprisoned."

Ji Chang had already memorized the script.

"Father, let me go in your place!"

When Boyi Kao heard that his father was in trouble, he immediately stepped forward and offered his help.

At this moment, Gu Qing looked at the legendary General Boyi Kao, who had been chopped into mincemeat by King Zhou and died a very tragic death. However, during the Investiture of the Gods, he was named the Great Emperor Ziwei, which can be described as a meteoric rise.

Speaking of the Ziwei Emperor...

Gu Qing thought of the child in the White Snake World, smiled, and then looked at Boyi Kao, saying, "Boyi Kao, you are destined to become emperor!"

Upon hearing this, Bo Yikao's legs went weak and he sat down on the ground, shaking his hands repeatedly like Ji Chang, saying, "Your son had no such intention!"

Looking at Boyi Kao's excited expression, Ji Chang shook his head slightly. He knew all too well that his child's lifespan was short, and that the claim of him becoming emperor was mostly just empty talk...

"Dad, let's do it."

Bo Yikao extended an invitation to Ji Chang.

Ji Chang's hands stopped trembling. At this moment, the most important thing was to stay steady.

"Immortal chief."

Ji Chang looked at Gu Qing and asked, "Will you come to help us?"

"Of course!"

Gu Qing said confidently, "My brother-in-law will definitely come to help you."

In "The Lotus Lantern", Yang Jian contributed a lot to the Investiture of the Gods war, and since he was a member of the Chan Sect, this was also a matter for the Chan Sect... so Yang Jian had to suffer a lot.

"That's good!"

Ji Chang nodded, having received this affirmation, and dared to take bold action.

The great battle of the Investiture of the Gods has begun ahead of schedule.

Yang Chan looked at the Lotus Lantern in her hand. At that moment, the Lotus Lantern emitted a radiant glow, and Yang Chan felt that her connection with the Lotus Lantern had become even stronger.

"Is that all?"

Yang Chan looked at Gu Qing and the Seventh Princess with a smile. Xiqi under the rule of the Marquis of Xibo was indeed good, and it was worlds apart from Chaoge under King Zhou. If they could replace it, it would be a blessing for the people.

Aolai Country, Flower and Fruit Mountain.

Sun Wukong nibbled on the peach in his hand, finding it tasteless, unlike the peaches of immortality from Heaven. Just as he was reminiscing about the past, a person suddenly appeared in the cave, making Sun Wukong immediately alert. He scratched his hand and looked at the elegant woman in front of him.

"Sun Wukong."

The Queen Mother of the West said with a smile, "You really like to find mothers everywhere, don't you?"

Sun Wukong looked at the Queen Mother and asked, "What is your name?"

The Queen Mother gently shook her head and said, "I cannot tell you my name, otherwise you will tell your mother. However, there is one thing I can tell you." Sun Wukong listened attentively.

"Among these ten continents and three islands, there are actually many immortals hidden deep in the mountains, some of whom are female immortals who are not only exceptionally beautiful but also possess boundless magical powers."

In casual conversation, the Queen Mother deliberately revealed many of the female immortals of the Jie Sect to Sun Wukong.

Sun Wukong scratched his hand, memorizing everything. After the Queen Mother left, he somersaulted away towards the location of the female immortal of the Jie Sect. He wanted to see what this suddenly appearing woman was up to.

After Sun Wukong left, the Queen Mother reappeared, chuckled, and flew towards Gu Qing, intending to cause him some more trouble.

Xiqi.

Yang Jiao and Yang Jian finally found their way here. Upon seeing the composed Gu Qing, the two of them immediately launched a powerful attack.

"boom!"

"boom!"

These two men studied under Master Yu Ding and were equally skilled. They had even caused trouble in the Heavenly Court together. Both of them possessed boundless strength and knew each other inside and out. When they saw Gu Qing, they were both at the height of their anger and did not hold back. However, to their surprise, when the two of them threw a punch, Gu Qing's face did not change at all.

"These must be Yang Jiao and Yang Jian."

Gu Qing remained calm and said, "Neither of you are injured, are you?"

Yang Jiao and Yang Jian exchanged a helpless glance and asked, "Where is my sister?"

The two of them went through a lot of trouble to find their sister.

“Your sister is here.”

Before Gu Qing could answer, a woman dressed in a phoenix robe appeared in the courtyard. She was elegant and refined. Yang Chan and the Seventh Princess stood obediently in front of her, unable to move.

"Queen Mother of the West!"

Upon seeing the Queen Mother, Yang Jiao and Yang Chan exclaimed in surprise, then looked again at the Third Holy Mother who was being held hostage, and the Seventh Princess who was unable to move.

"Your Majesty, the matter concerning my Yang family has already been discussed in Heaven!"

Yang Jian immediately said that during the last time he caused trouble in Heaven, the Queen Mother of the West had led Yang Jian and Yang Jiao to the Fourth Heaven of Desire. There, the Queen Mother of the West gave him earnest teachings, which made Yang Jian feel that the Queen Mother of the West treated him differently.

"Let Gu Qing come out."

The Queen Mother of the West said with a cold laugh.

These words relieved Yang Jian, who felt that the matter was mainly aimed at Gu Qing. Although he intended to help Gu Qing, his third sister and cousin were more important at the moment.

Yang Jian turned around and saw that Gu Qing was already standing in the courtyard.

"Gu Qing."

The Queen Mother of the West looked at Gu Qing, sneered twice, and said, "You really have some tricks up your sleeve, making all the celestial ladies in my Heavenly Court flutter with desire. But today, I will expose your hypocritical face!"

The Queen Mother of the West, who governs the four heavens of the Desire Realm, is most sensitive to the fluctuations of desire among the immortals, and Gu Qing is the one who reacts the most strongly.

"Release them both and let's talk this out."

Gu Qing said with a stern face.

The Queen Mother of the West suddenly resorted to underhanded tactics, kidnapping Yang Chan and the Seventh Princess. Gu Qing could only notify Yao Ji on one hand and deal with the Queen Mother on the other. The Seventh Princess was the Queen Mother's biological daughter, and Yang Chan had just gained the approval of the Lotus Lantern. Their lives were not in danger. Gu Qing thought that the Queen Mother of the West wanted to use the two female immortals to control him.

Now, Gu Qing has to play the role of this infatuated, soft-hearted man.

"Can't we talk this out?"

The Queen Mother, her face cold, said, "What else is there to say between us?"

Gu Qing stormed into the Heavenly Court, killed nine Golden Crows, and humiliated the Jade Emperor. The Heavenly Court had long since decided to kill him.

Gu Qing looked at Yang Chan and the Seventh Princess, noticing their worry. He smiled slightly at them, intending to comfort them, then looked at the Queen Mother and said, "Let's talk. What do you want me to do for you to let them go?"

Upon hearing this, the Queen Mother raised her hand and flipped it over, revealing a pill. She said, "Gu Qing, as long as you take this Soul-Severing Pill, I will let the two of them go!"

In the prequel to The Lotus Lantern, the Soul-Severing Pill once took Yang Jian's life.

Now, the Queen Mother is using this on Gu Qing.

"can!"

Gu Qing agreed without hesitation.

"..."

This swift agreement left even the Queen Mother in disbelief, feeling that Gu Qing had agreed far too readily. She looked at Gu Qing and solemnly said, "No matter how high your cultivation level is, once you take this Soul-Severing Pill, you will surely die."

She only wanted to expose Gu Qing's true colors, but she never expected to be able to kill Gu Qing like this.

"Then will you let them go?"

Gu Qing looked at the Queen Mother.

The Queen Mother stretched out her hand and made a vow to the heavens.

"That's good!"

Gu Qing spread his hands, letting the Queen Mother throw him the Soul-Severing Pill. He looked at Yang Chan and the Seventh Princess, his breath catching slightly, and said, "I know you'll think I'm too fickle, but I'm serious about each and every one of you. The Queen Mother doesn't need to tie you two up; if she tied up either of you, I'd be willing to give my life." Gu Qing had come from a low-level martial arts world, and he had even closely observed Old Duan's methods. It could be said that in Tianlong, if Murong Fu hadn't killed anyone in that battle, Old Duan would definitely have been able to fulfill his dream of sleeping with his wife.

Now, holding the Soul-Severing Pill, Gu Qing, after uttering his last words, looked at Yang Chan and the Seventh Princess, and gladly swallowed the pill.

"It's that simple?"

Even the Queen Mother of the West was very hesitant. Could this great enemy of the Heavenly Court be so easily subdued?
As a result, the Queen Mother's magic weakened, and Yang Chan and the Seventh Princess exclaimed and rushed forward to Gu Qing's side.

"You, how could you have taken it..."

Yang Chan used the Lotus Lantern to heal Gu Qing's wounds, her eyes brimming with tears.

"Gu Qing, I've given up everything, and now it's all I have left..."

The Seventh Princess knew of the poisonous nature of the Soul-Severing Pill, and was too weak to kneel down.

The Milky Way roared, and in the Moon Palace, the Moon Goddess silently shed tears. The gods who witnessed this event were touched by Gu Qing's willingness to take the Soul-Severing Pill, and felt the true feelings of humanity.

The Queen Mother stood silently to the side, letting things take their course, for under the Soul-Severing Pill, Gu Qing had no chance of survival.

But she felt that killing Gu Qing had ignited a different kind of flame in the realm of desire.

"Quick, give him to me!"

At this moment, Yao Ji snatched Gu Qing away, carried him on her back, and headed towards the Thirty-Third Heaven.

Upon seeing this, Yang Jiao and Yang Jian hurriedly followed behind, but Yao Ji was moving very fast and left the two children far behind.

"mother in law……"

Gu Qing, possessing martial arts skills, was in no danger of losing his life. He allowed the poison of the Soul-Severing Pill to spread, feigning weakness as he leaned heavily on Yao Ji, his face pale, and said, "You're a little late..."

"Gu Qing, you must hold on!"

As Yao Ji ascended through the clouds, she said, "I will take you to the Thirty-Third Heaven to seek medicine from Laozi. If you survive, I will make you prepare two betrothal gifts!"

Although Gu Qing was a womanizer, he was indeed a devoted lover, willing to sacrifice his life for Yang Chan and the Seventh Princess. In Yao Ji's eyes, this kind of true love was the same as Yang Tianyou's. Therefore, Yao Ji prepared to entrust Yang Chan and the Seventh Princess to him.

After all, she was the seventh princess's aunt. Since the seventh princess's love was not approved by her parents, the elders always had to step in.

"Mother-in-law, you can't do that."

Gu Qing felt very ashamed and said, "Brother Yang has only been gone for a little over three years. We can't let him down."

"..."

Yao Ji is considering taking action.
