People in the Imperial Music Bureau: The Storytelling Demon Child Nezha

The Jade Emperor was overjoyed upon hearing this and said, "Then I grant your request."

.... ... ....

"As for why the Jade Emperor wanted to recruit Sun Wukong, it was actually for the sake of the Heavenly Court. The Heavenly Court may seem powerful, but it has many traitors among its members."

At this point in Li Qiye's speech, the listeners became curious.

A traitor?

"Mr. Qiye, what is the meaning of this traitor?"

Someone asked a question.

Li Qiye explained.

“This traitor is someone who harbors rebellious intentions.”

rebel!

At that moment, the first image that came to the listener's mind was that of a demonized Nezha.

"Could Nezha be one of these traitors?"

"I feel that Nezha has a grudge against Wuliang Xianweng and the Heavenly Court."

"I feel that Nezha must be a traitor. The Jade Emperor can't do anything about him. Now that he's out there, Sun Wukong wants to recruit him."

"Brother Chen, do you mean that Nezha wants to rebel against the Heavenly Court, but Nezha's master, Taiyi Zhenren, is also his master, and Taiyi Zhenren is also Yuanshi Tianzun, so the Jade Emperor has no way to recruit him and take his place?"

"That's right, that's my guess."

"Brother Chen, great minds think alike."

Li Qiye laughed when he heard this.

"You are all right, one of these traitors is indeed Nezha."

You are right!

The listeners looked proud, but was he just one of the traitors?

Li Qiye's use of "one of" piqued their curiosity.

"Mr. Qiye, could it be that there are still gods in Heaven who want to rebel against Heaven?"

Li Qiye nodded.

"good."

who is it?

They became curious.

"Which deity is it?"

Li Qiye replied with a smile, "There is another traitor who secretly rebels against the Heavenly Court named Yang Jian. He is the judicial god of the Heavenly Court and is known as the Erlang Manifestation True Lord of Guanjiangkou."

"He is also the Jade Emperor's nephew; the Jade Emperor is his uncle." (IV.)

Chapter 88 One Axe, One Cousin! The Keeper of the Heavenly Horses? The Great Sage Equal to Heaven!

what!

"The Jade Emperor's nephew!"

Why did he rebel against the Heavenly Court?

What Li Qiye said surprised and puzzled the listeners.

What is surprising is Yang Jian's identity, and what is puzzling is why a nephew would rebel against the Heavenly Court founded by his uncle.

Li Qiye thought for a moment and then said.

"Let me tell you about Yang Jian, the Heavenly God of Justice in the Heavenly Court."

Everyone listened attentively.

Li Qiye said.

"To talk about Yang Jian, we have to mention the Heavenly Court and the Jade Emperor."

"The Jade Emperor is the ruler of the Heavenly Court. He has issued Heavenly Laws, which are like laws and all the gods and immortals of the Heavenly Court must not violate."

"Otherwise, they will be dealt with according to the law. One of the heavenly rules is that gods cannot fall in love with mortals in the mortal world."

The listeners were all curious upon hearing this.

What kind of divine law is this?

Why can't immortals fall in love with mortals?

Wang Simu, Li Miaozhen, Chu Yuanzhen, Wei Yuan, and Huaiqing listened attentively.

Li Qiye continued.

"The Jade Emperor's sister, Yao Ji, was exceptionally beautiful and possessed extraordinary cultivation. However, when she was capturing a three-headed dragon in the mortal realm, she was ambushed by it, resulting in severe injuries to her soul."

"At that time, Yang Tianyou, a mortal from the lower realm, happened to meet her. He saved Yao Ji by sacrificing his own heart. The two lived together and shared one heart. How could they not fall in love?"

"In the midst of their love, the two had three children: Yang Dalang (Yang Jiao), Yang Erlang (Yang Jian), and Yang Sanmei (Yang Chan)."

"A day in heaven is equivalent to a year on earth. In the heavenly court, which is more than ten days, Yang Jian and the others have grown into teenagers."

"However, the truth eventually came out. When the Jade Emperor of Heaven learned of this, he was furious. He sent Marshal Tianpeng to the mortal realm to capture Yao Ji, and at the same time ordered Yang Tianyou and his children to be killed, so that their souls would be scattered to the winds to show the power of Heaven."

"Yao Ji would not be easily captured. They resisted, but only Yao Ji had the ability to deal with these mere mortals. Yang Jiao and Yang Tianyou were killed."

"Yao Ji was captured, but Yang Jian and Yang Chan were secretly released because Marshal Tianpeng couldn't bear to see them go."

"So it turns out that Yao Ji had once done a favor for Marshal Tianpeng, which is why he felt compassion for her."

"After that, Yao Ji was captured by the Jade Emperor and brought back to the Heavenly Court, where she was suppressed under Peach Mountain, where the Jade Emperor's words were law. To save his mother, Yang Jian became the disciple of Yu Ding Zhenren, one of the Twelve Golden Immortals."

"He learned the Eight-Nine Arcane Arts and opened his Heavenly Eye. The Eight-Nine Arcane Arts is considered the top-level technique of the Chan Sect. When mastered, one can achieve physical sainthood, with countless transformations, including seventy-two transformations, and even the power to manifest the heavens and the earth."

"After learning the skill, Yang Jian subdued the three-headed dragon from back then, and the three-headed dragon transformed into his weapon, the Three-Pointed Double-Edged Sword!"

"Later, he was followed by the celestial hound, which was called the Heavenly Dog and could swallow the sun and moon."

"Later, in order to save his mother, he found the Heaven-Opening Axe, which was used by Pangu who created the world. This magic weapon can be said to be among the top-tier ones."

"Yang Jian was about to split open Peach Mountain to rescue his mother, but the Jade Emperor sent his ten sons to scorch the sun and kill Yao Ji alive."

"In the end, Yao Ji died and her life was extinguished. In his great anger, Yang Jian killed all ten of the Jade Emperor's sons except for one. If it weren't for the Moon Palace Fairy and Marshal Tianpeng stopping him, the last son would have died at the hands of Yang Jian's Heaven-Opening Axe."

ha?!!!

The listeners were dumbfounded.

This is too outrageous.

The Jade Emperor killing his own brother-in-law and nephew already baffled them.

Yang Jian was even more ruthless, killing all ten of the Jade Emperor's sons except for one.

Holy crap, this family's got some skills.

Li Qiye leisurely sipped his tea.

There is humanity.

“Mr. Qiye, if the Jade Emperor has a son, doesn’t that mean the Jade Emperor has also violated the Heavenly Laws?”

Li Qiye put down his hot tea and looked at him as if he were an idiot.

"The Jade Emperor is the one who issues the Heavenly Laws; he doesn't have to abide by them."

Have you ever seen an emperor who truly practiced the principle of "the emperor is subject to the same laws as the common people"?

This question left them speechless.

It is said that the Jade Emperor only allows officials to set fires, no, he only allows himself to set fires, but forbids ordinary people from even lighting lamps.

Li Qiye continued.

"After killing the Jade Emperor's nine sons, Yang Jian was still not satisfied. He stormed into the South Heavenly Gate, intending to storm the Lingxiao Palace and take the Jade Emperor's life. The Jade Emperor was horrified. It seemed that things were about to get out of control, but because his battle against the Heavenly Court caused continuous disasters on earth, Yang Jian could not bear to see the suffering on earth. So he negotiated with the Jade Emperor and gave up his revenge."

"In the end, he was deified by the Jade Emperor and became the judicial god of the Heavenly Court, Erlang Shenzhenjun. However, he obeyed orders but not summons. Apart from the Jade Emperor, sometimes even the Jade Emperor's decree could not summon him."

"His sister Yang Chan was deified as the Third Holy Mother, holding the Precious Lotus Lantern; as for the Howling Celestial Dog, he was deified as the Sun-Swallowing God, and it is said that the celestial dog eating the sun and the moon was the work of the Howling Celestial Dog."

The listeners looked at each other, thinking that Yang Jian's story must be incredibly exciting.

Moreover, they obey orders but not decrees; how domineering!

"What a magnificent display of obedience to orders but not to decrees! Yang Jian is truly impressive."

"Erlang Manifests True Lord, what an imposing title."

"Mr. Qiye, would you have the chance to tell the story of this True Lord? It is certainly no less impressive than that of Nezha."

"Absolutely, absolutely, I really want to hear it."

After hearing this, Li Qiye said, "If I have the chance, I'll tell you the story of Yang Jian."

As he spoke, Li Qiye suddenly thought of something.

he said.

"By the way, when Yang Jian stormed into the South Heavenly Gate, it was Nezha who was guarding the South Heavenly Gate at that time."

"One of them is always plotting a rebellion, and the other is secretly plotting one..."

"They are giving the Jade Emperor a real headache."

The listener suddenly understood.

"Pfft, so that's how it is. Nezha really loves to stir up trouble."

"Nezha probably thinks about how to rebel every day. When he encounters someone who storms up the Heavenly Court, he would love to be his helper."

"Yang Jian was able to break into the South Heavenly Gate because Nezha let him in, and didn't even stop him."

"Don't even mention stopping him, I'm afraid he'd love to be a helper and fight his way in."

Li Qiye's lips curled up.

I wish I could be a helper?

He was just an assistant.

Even Sun Wukong and Yang Jian, the number one traitor in Heaven, have to take a backseat.

"Ahem, alright, let's get back to the main topic."

"The Jade Emperor wanted to have more help so that he wouldn't have to be wary of Nezha and wouldn't be able to control Yang Jian."

"After receiving the Jade Emperor's decree, Venus immediately descended to the mortal realm and went to Flower Fruit Mountain."

"When Venus arrived at Flower Fruit Mountain, he was immediately surrounded and attacked by the macaques."

"Venus said: I am a celestial being from the Heavenly Court, and I have come to see your king by order of the Jade Emperor."

“The monkeys and their offspring know that Venus must have an extraordinary origin.”

So he immediately sent someone to inform Sun Wukong.

"In the Water Curtain Cave, Sun Wukong was having a great time, living a life of immortality. Just then, a monkey came to report: 'Your Majesty, there are immortals outside who claim to be from the Heavenly Court and wish to see you.'"

Upon hearing this, Sun Wukong immediately ordered his monkey followers to bring it in.

"When Venus entered the Water Curtain, he saw the Monkey King and couldn't help but exclaim, 'What a handsome Monkey King!'"

"Monkey King, I am the celestial being Taibai Jinxing."

Sun Wukong disliked beating around the bush and asked, "What is it?"

"Venus said: I am hereby invited by the Jade Emperor to serve as an official in the Heavenly Court."

0.4 “Sun Wukong was somewhat interested in becoming an official; he was, by nature, a monkey and prone to play.”

He immediately agreed and followed Venus into the Heavenly Court.

"When Sun Wukong met the Jade Emperor, the Jade Emperor couldn't help but marvel at him."
