Film and Television Variety Show: The Jade Girl's Love Affair

Marquis Nanbo was extremely worried about his son, but E Shun was not affected at all. Instead, he smiled and comforted his father.

"Father, now that divine retribution has descended, the world is in chaos, and countless people are dying tragically every day."

In this situation, romantic feelings are truly insignificant. If she likes me, I will naturally be overjoyed; if she doesn't like me, I won't despair.

For us, the most important thing right now is to stop divine retribution and save all living beings.

Sharing the same goals and ideals is the most important thing; whether or not we can spend our lives together as husband and wife is not important at this moment.

E Chongyu looked at his son quietly, his worry gradually turning into relief.

He knew that his son had grown up, had his own ambitions and pursuits, and was no longer the boy who only knew how to obey orders.

"Alright, now that you've made up your mind, go ahead and do it. But be careful in everything you do. Your father hopes for your early return, safe and sound."

E Shun nodded vigorously, turned around and strode away.

Looking up, he saw Tang Yu in the distance.

She stood in the gentle breeze, her clothes fluttering lightly, like a beautiful painting.

E Shun's heart suddenly raced, an indescribable joy welled up inside him, and he couldn't wait to run towards her, his steps quickening, his heart filled with eagerness to reach her.

The moment he ran up to Tang Yu, Tang Yu naturally reached out her hand.

E Shun's gaze was fixed on that hand, and he subconsciously reached out and grasped it tightly.

In an instant, a flash of light appeared beneath their feet, and powerful spiritual energy enveloped them, instantly propelling them into the air.

A gust of wind blew past, and E Shun felt his palms being tightly wrapped in warmth. Looking down again, he realized that the two of them had intertwined their fingers without him noticing.

E Shun's face instantly burned, yet he couldn't help but secretly clench his fists, unwilling to loosen them even slightly.

Many people haven't seen the movie, so I'll give some background information. The setting of this Investiture of the Gods is completely different from the original novel. The core of the movie is to find the ruler of the world to open the Investiture of the Gods and resolve the divine punishment.

Although the main characters of the recently released second film have forgotten how important the Investiture of the Gods is, and everyone has forgotten that the divine retribution is still ongoing, and Xiqi can't even produce food, they're still singing, dancing, and drinking, hahaha!

Chapter 4 Investiture of the Gods

The two rode on their swords, the fierce wind whistling sharply in their ears, and in the blink of an eye, they arrived outside Chaoge City.

Looking up, the once bustling and noisy city gate was now filled with a chilling and murderous atmosphere.

The soldiers held long spears, the tips of which gleamed with a cold light. Their expressions were solemn, and their eyes revealed a high degree of vigilance. The entire capital city looked heavily guarded.

Tang Yu frowned slightly, a hint of doubt flashing in her eyes.

"What on earth happened in broad daylight? Why is Chaoge's city gates closed? I have a feeling something terrible has happened!"

E Shun stood in mid-air, his posture steady and his eyes sharp, as he looked down again to carefully examine the city gate.

The military knowledge and experience he had accumulated in Chaoge over the years flashed through his mind like a revolving lantern.

After a moment, he spoke with certainty.

"Whenever the king has important matters to attend to and needs to leave the palace, the surrounding city gates are always heavily guarded."

Something extremely important must have happened today, and perhaps the people of Chaoge City have been gathered to watch.

At such times, the city gates are kept tightly closed to prevent any unforeseen circumstances.

Tang Yu was filled with curiosity and doubt. Chaoge had already experienced major events such as the death of Queen Jiang and the disappearance of the Crown Prince after killing his father and the emperor. What other earth-shattering changes could happen now?

She instinctively gripped E Shun's hand and asked him questions out of curiosity.

"Where is the Shang King announcing this important event? Quickly point me in the right direction, let's fly over there immediately and see for ourselves!"

Without hesitation, E Shun raised his hand and pointed to a towering pavilion.

"That was the place where the Shang king announced important state affairs, presided over important ceremonies, and executed serious criminals."

Tang Yu, with E Shun in tow, sped toward the tall building like a shooting star.

Just as they reached mid-air, a chilling scene came into view.

King Yin Shou of Shang stood high on a tall building, his expression cold and stern, like an emotionless stone statue. The indifference and ruthlessness in his eyes sent chills down one's spine.

His son, Yin Jiao, dressed in prison clothes and tightly bound with ropes, knelt on the opposite platform, cursing his father incessantly, his voice hoarse with anger and despair.

Immediately afterwards, Yin Shou parted his thin lips slightly and coldly uttered two words: "Execute!"

The voice seemed to carry the chill of winter frost, sending a cold shiver down one's spine.

E Shun watched in stunned silence, and blurted out unconsciously.

"The king only has this one son! After Yin Jiao died, without an heir, does the king really think he can still sit secure on the throne?"

This world feels completely insane!

But at the very moment of the execution, the situation on the scene suddenly changed, and the soldiers launched a rebellion.

Someone stepped forward and stopped Crown Prince Yin Jiao from being executed.

"That's Ji Fa! He's led the soldiers of Xiqi to rebel and rescue Yin Jiao!"

After saying this, E Shun fixed his gaze intently on Ji Fa.

Tang Yu looked up at the high platform and saw Ji Fa holding a sharp blade to Yin Shou's neck with a determined look in his eyes. The whole scene instantly descended into chaos.

Soldiers from both sides clashed in close combat, the sounds of fighting, shouting, and clashing weapons mingling together, blood splattering everywhere, the scene was horrific, and the situation was extremely critical.

Tang Yu noticed the nervous expression on E Shun's face and subconsciously asked him a question.

Are any of your friends here? Do you need my help?

With a solemn expression, E Shun quickly weighed the pros and cons before speaking.

"Ji Fa is the son of Ji Chang, the Marquis of Xibo. Ji Chang was skilled at governing his fiefdom, and the people lived in peace and prosperity. Now that the world is in chaos, if the southern region wants to protect its borders and its people, it must reduce its enemies and make more allies. This is the most important thing for the southern region at present."

Xiqi's strength should not be underestimated; they are an excellent ally. If the opportunity arises, we can forge an alliance with Xiqi by rescuing Ji Fa.

Upon hearing E Shun's answer, Tang Yu smiled with satisfaction.

The boy who impulsively chose to perish together with others in the main hall has, in just a few days, undergone a complete transformation and has gained a thorough understanding of the situation in the world.

"Xiqi is indeed a good choice, but Yin Jiao might be able to lure out Jiang Ziya, so it wouldn't hurt to lend him a hand."

Tang Yu nodded slightly and said thoughtfully.

But just as Tang Yu finished speaking and looked down, she froze, her face filled with shock.

Then, Chong Yingbiao, who had inherited the title of Marquis of the North, appeared like a ghost, and with a swift stroke of his knife, Yin Jiao's head rolled to the side.

Everything happened so suddenly that no one had time to react.

What's gotten into him? The two sides are still fighting a civil war, why is he in such a hurry to kill Yin Jiao? Does he have some deep-seated hatred for him?

Tang Yu was speechless. This man seemed to have gone mad after killing his father!

Suddenly, E Shun grabbed Tang Yu's hand tightly, his finger pointing urgently at the high platform.

"Look, two immortals are flying over! That must be Yang Jian and Nezha!"

Tang Yu looked in the direction E Shun pointed and indeed saw two figures standing on the high platform.

Immediately afterwards, she heard someone shouting for Yang Jian and Nezha, urging them to quickly take away Yin Jiao's body.

"Is that person Jiang Ziya?" Tang Yu turned to look at E Shun, her eyes full of inquiry.

“I wasn’t in the main hall at the time, but I think it must have been him.”

Upon hearing E Shun's words, Tang Yu couldn't help but laugh.

"We've come at the perfect time! We found Jiang Ziya so easily, and even met Nezha and Yang Jian!"

Tang Yu's eyes gleamed with excitement, as if he saw the hope of uncovering the secrets of the Investiture of the Gods.

However, at this moment, Yang Jian and Nezha had already flown into the sky with Yin Jiao's corpse, while Jiang Ziya tried to take the opportunity to escape the chaotic battlefield.

On the high platform, Ji Fa and Yin Shou continued their fierce battle, with Ji Fa gradually losing ground and his life hanging by a thread.

Tang Yu secretly gathered his spiritual power, preparing to step in and save him at the critical moment.

Just then, Ji Fa suddenly unleashed a burst of power and pierced Yin Shou's chest with his sword.

During the struggle, Yin Shou stumbled and fell directly off the city wall.

"The King is dead?" E Shun was shocked, his mouth slightly open, his eyes filled with disbelief.

Tang Yu, however, keenly noticed that Ji Fa was leading Jiang Ziya away from the scene.

"Let's put the matter of Chaoge aside for now. I need to find Jiang Ziya. E Shun, come with me!"

After Tang Yu finished speaking, he took E Shun and chased after Ji Fa and Jiang Ziya without hesitation.

Considering they were still inside Chaoge City, Tang Yu did not want to cause further chaos and planned to secretly help Ji Fa and his group escape.

Coincidentally, Jiang Wenhuan, the son of the Marquis of Dongbo at the city gate, defected and successfully helped Ji Fa and others escape the city.

However, Ji Fa and his companions were not out of danger; an even greater danger was about to unfold.

After Ji Fa and his party rode their horses at full speed for a distance, the Taotie statue that had been standing in the city suddenly burst out of the ground, bursting through the city gate like a ferocious beast and roaring as it chased after Ji Fa and his group.

"Why does this Taotie statue move?" E Shun asked, puzzled.

"There must be someone pulling the strings behind the scenes, and that person is..."

Tang Yu narrowed his eyes, staring intently at the figure in the distance, whose black robes were billowing and whose hair was disheveled.

E Shun also realized what was happening instantly and blurted it out.

"That must be Shen Gongbao!"

Upon hearing this, Tang Yu's lips curled into a cold smile.

"It seems this guy's target is Jiang Ziya, and he's probably after the Investiture of the Gods."

"Since that's the case, don't blame me for being impolite. Rather than letting these two statues chase after me, I'd rather take matters into my own hands!"

After saying that, Tang Yu flashed forward like lightning and grabbed Jiang Ziya, who was sitting behind Ji Fa.

Before Ji Fa could react, his horse had already galloped off in a panic.

Meanwhile, the two Taotie beasts controlled by Shen Gongbao and tracking Jiang Ziya roared and charged towards Tang Yu's direction.
