"Humph, how dare this mortal woman even be compared to our divine lord?"
Chu Yuan stabilized his posture, wiped away the blood marks on his lips, and spoke with an unpleasant expression.
He had to admit to himself that the current situation made him very embarrassed.
Yu Yao's lips curled with sarcasm and contempt. "Dog thing, if Jiang Wanru heard this, what would she feel?"
When it comes to one's face, even the woman one loves is no exception.
The corner of Ye Ming's mouth also curls with contempt, but he has not taken advantage of this victory. With so many people around, it is impossible to extract Chu Yuan's divine vein.
He withdrew his power around him, and instantly, the swirling and roaring magical fog in the sky dispersed. "Chu Yuan, Divine Lord, today's incident is just the beginning. If you dare to harm her in the slightest, I will not rest."
His words were like icy winds, piercing through the clouds, causing the air around him to freeze.
As his words ended, the expressions of those present varied, and their gazes shifted between Yu Yao and Ye Ming.
Ye Ming is the first evil deity since the beginning of time, someone who has never placed anyone above himself. To stand up for someone, or even to fight for them, is something he has never done before.
Moreover, this person is a woman.
If they say there's nothing between them, anyone present probably wouldn't believe it.
The Dark Overlord Mo Yan lay on a massive black cloud, his lips curled into a mocking smile, "Very interesting, so very interesting, hahaha."
His laughter was unrestrained, and he could say that he had no consideration at all.
"Oh my, look at this grand performance! It's even more exciting than the folk dramas in the mortal world!"
The master of the demon realm, Bai Cang, fluttering his fan, seemed to find the scene before him nothing more than a pastime after tea.
He turned to Yu Yao and said, "Little divine daughter, your husband is truly 'unique'. However, being protected by such an evil deity is also your good fortune."
Yu Yao pretended to be aggrieved and blinked her eyes. "Jade master, you're joking. I just wish to find a single-hearted man and live together until we're old. Alas, fate is fickle. If it were not for the generous help from the evil god, I'm afraid I would have already perished and could not have stood here to listen to everyone's banter."
Her words carried a hint of helplessness and sorrow, yet were not without a playful tone, which elicited light chuckles from many immortals and demons around.
But there were also those who felt sympathy for her.
Chu Yuan, Divine Lord, heard this and his expression turned to a grimace. He sneered coldly but dared not look into Ye Ming's eyes that seemed to see through everything.
"I suspect you've been involved with the evil god for some time and are trying to push Chu Yuan, Divine Lord, aside. You're really despicable."
Fei Yue Immortal walked out from behind the Heavenly Emperor, staring at Yu Yao with disgust in her eyes, and coldly mocked.
Her words made Chu Yuan's face look even more unpleasant and embarrassed.
It's one thing for him not to want Yu Ji, but it's another for Yu Ji to reject him and fall in love with someone else instead.
While it's true that he was the one who initially approached Yu Ji, it's understandable for her to fall in love with someone else. However, hearing him say this still made him feel uncomfortable in his heart.
It felt like someone had betrayed him, making him feel extremely uncomfortable.
Yu Yao's gaze shifted to Fei Yue Immortal, and she was about to respond with a retort.
As they watched, Ye Ming's eyes were cold and sharp, straightening his gaze on Fei Yue Immortal. "If you don't want your tongue, I can pluck it out for you right now."
His voice, cold and commanding, held an immense aura of pressure. He showed no respect for the Heavenly Emperor's face, causing Fei Yue Immortal's expression to turn pale instantly and her body to tremble involuntarily.
Mo Yan crossed his arms, a sly smile on his lips, "Haha, Fei Yue Immortal, you've asked for this. The anger of the evil deity is not something to be borne lightly."
The master of the demon realm, Bai Cang, shook his fan and his eyes flashed with amusement and curiosity. He looked at Yu Yao and said, "Little divine daughter, it seems that Fei Yue Immortal doesn't have a good relationship with you."
Yu Yao looked at Bai Cang, this man may look ambiguous in gender, but his speech was quite interesting. She showed a helpless and aggrieved expression and said, "I have never offended Fei Yue Immortal. I don't know why she defamed my reputation like this."
This made Fei Yue Immortal's face very unpleasant, with tears in her eyes, feeling somewhat ashamed as well.
"Enough!"
The Heavenly Emperor finally spoke up, his authoritative voice drowning out all the noise.
"This is a sacred place in the Heavenly Realm; how can you have a private fight here! Ye Ming, as the evil deity, though you are powerful, you cannot act arbitrarily. Chu Yuan, as a god in the Heavenly Realm, you should lead by example rather than be disrupted by personal emotions."
"Your Majesty, this matter originated with me, and I am willing to bear all the consequences."
Yu Yao emerged from the cloud, her voice firm and clear.
She looked at Chu Yuan, her eyes devoid of any affection, only coldness and determination, "Chu Yuan, our relationship has ended here. Today, I solemnly request the Heavenly Emperor as witness to dissolve our marriage from this day forward. From now on, we shall have no further involvement in each other's lives; you marry a man and I will marry a woman, and we shall have no connection."
As she spoke, there was a commotion in the surrounding area.
Mo Yan, the Demon Lord, looked at Yu Yao with a touch of surprise, "This woman has become clear-minded. That's good."
The Demon Realm's master, Bai Cang, also glanced at her, the playful expression on his face fading away, replaced by a look of seriousness. "Little divine daughter, are you serious about this?"
Yu Yao looked at Bai Cang seriously and said, "Of course, I'm very serious. From the moment he tried to extract my divine vein and wantonly endanger my life, I have died in his heart."
Bai Cang nodded slightly, thinking of the actions of Chu Yuan towards her. It wasn't unexpected that she would make such a decision.
When love reaches its end and instead of receiving reciprocation, it turns into a blade threatening one's life, anyone would withdraw.
Ye Ming raised his eyebrows and smiled at her, his mood appeared to be very good.
Her eyes lingered on Chu Yuan, Divine Lord again, full of disdain. Such trash should have been thrown away long ago.
The Heavenly Emperor nodded slightly, not opposing Yu Yao's words. At this point, their situation was indeed not worth continuing their relationship.
He then announced: "Since this is the case, Yu Ji, Chu Yuan, Divine Lord, today you will dissolve your marriage. The witnesses present here today are all aware of this. From now on, you will each marry a man and a woman and have no further connection with each other."
Fei Yue Immortal heard the announcement from the Heavenly Emperor and was overjoyed.
It's great that they've been divorced. Now that Chu Yuan, Divine Lord, is single, there's a better chance for me.
As for that mortal, Fei Yue Immortal had never cared about him in the first place.
A mortal being, she could easily extinguish with a single breath.
Chu Yuan, Divine Lord, looked pale and his eyes held a complex mix of emotions as he glanced at Yu Yao, but he said nothing.
However, this is not the end.
The Heavenly Emperor looked at Chu Yuan, Divine Lord, hesitated for a moment, frowned and sighed, "Chu Yuan, Divine Lord, because of his personal desires, he almost caused a great disaster. From now on, he shall not be allowed to descend to the mortal world privately. He must stay in seclusion for a thousand years as a warning to others."
If he were not a god, he would have been demoted to the mortal world long ago.
However, Chu Yuan, Divine Lord, is different. He is not only a close friend but also holds an important position in the Heavenly Realm.
Certainly, the punishment cannot be too severe.
When Chu Yuan, Divine Lord, heard the Heavenly Emperor's words, he was thrown into a panic. Staying in seclusion for a thousand years is fine, but in heaven, one day corresponds to one year on earth. By the time he emerged from his seclusion, Wanrou would have gone through countless lifetimes in the mortal world.
"Your Majesty."
Chu Yuan, Divine Lord, wanted to say something more, but was interrupted by the Heavenly Emperor's severe gaze.
He has already imposed a lenient punishment; what more could Chu Yuan possibly complain about?
He doesn't even look at what he has done.
The Heavenly Emperor sneered coldly and ordered in a deep voice, "Heavenly soldiers and generals, quickly descend to the mortal world to capture the mortal woman Jiang Wanrou and bring her to justice."
Even though no one mentioned Jiang Wanrou's name, as the ruler of the three realms, it was almost effortless for the Heavenly Emperor to find out anything he wanted to know.
As soon as he spoke, the sky turned dark and chaotic. The Heavenly Soldiers and Generals appeared like a swarm, flying across the sky and heading straight for the mortal world.
"Not at all."
Chu Yuan, Divine Lord, was in a hurry and flew forward to stop them.
The Heavenly Emperor's expression instantly turned cold, and he scolded severely, "Chu Yuan, you have violated the laws of heaven. If it weren't for your past achievements, today's punishment would not be as simple as staying in seclusion for a thousand years."
Chu Yuan, Divine Lord, paused for a moment and pain flickered across his face, "Your Majesty, Wanrou is just a mortal. She doesn't understand anything. Please show mercy and spare her life."
The Heavenly Emperor's expression was serious, and he said gravely, "Chu Yuan, as a Divine Lord, you have violated the heavenly laws because of personal desires. The difference between immortals and mortals is an unchangeable law of heaven. That mortal woman dared to try to replace the immortal maiden and even corrupted you into harming her, her crime is unforgivable."
Chu Yuan hurriedly defended, "Your Majesty, Wanrou had no such intention. She only loved me and made those foolish mistakes. Please show mercy and forgive her once on my behalf."
