"Hahaha, Brother Cheng, of course I trust your character. It's a blessing for Chan'er to marry you. How could I not agree?"

Yang Tianyou is not the irresponsible Liu Yanchang. In the original drama, he had thought of using the fact that Yao Ji and he shared a common heart to make the story, and saying that Yao Ji's lingering in the mortal world was controlled by him, so as to take all the blame.

Now that his youngest daughter has a chance to save her life, he would nod and agree without hesitation, not to mention marrying her to Cheng Long, even if she was sold to Brother Cheng as a maid.

"It's my parents' order and the matchmaker's words. Since Brother Yang and Sister-in-law both want to marry Chan'er to me, I will be disrespectful to refuse."

Cheng Long agreed very readily and intercepted Liu Yanchang to marry the Third Holy Mother, but he already had the idea.

While chatting and laughing, the three of them decided on Yang Chan's life. During this period, no one asked Yang Chan about it. This is absolutely unimaginable in the future when marriage and love are free. If it were to be exposed, who knows how much criticism would be attracted.

But during the Shang Dynasty, no one thought there was a problem, including Yang Chan herself.

When this graceful young girl learned that she had suddenly become a teacher's wife, she did not feel dissatisfied at all, but was simply heart-pounding.

"Princess, you don't really think that finding a handsome man will protect your little daughter, right?"

Marshal Tianpeng in the world of The Lotus Lantern does not have the majestic bearing of the one in the world of Journey to the West. He is fat and big-eared, and looks like he has been reincarnated as a pig and turned into Zhu Bajie. When he heard that Yao Ji and Yang Tianyou were going to marry their pretty daughter to Cheng Long, his first feeling was puzzled.

How could a mere immortal from the true fairyland have the ability to save Yang Chan?

You know, he and the Five Pole War Gods all have the cultivation base of the peak of Taiyi Realm, and are only one step away from Daluo Realm. Although this step is difficult to cross in one's entire life for people without great perseverance, great opportunity, and great enlightenment.

But any one of them could easily kill a Golden Immortal, not to mention that Cheng Long was just a cultivator who had just entered the realm of True Immortality.

“Tian Peng, you’d better open your Dharma eyes and see clearly first, otherwise if you hurt Master Cheng, you will never be able to set foot in the Daluo realm in your life…” Yao Ji sneered with a slight smile on her lips.

"..."

Tianpeng was stunned, and seeing Yao Ji's solemn expression, he immediately put his index and middle fingers together and wiped them over his eyes, and his eyes suddenly lit up with golden light.

The Five Pole War Gods also concentrated their minds and opened their Dharma Eyes at the same time.

The immortal's Dharma eye is a kind of supersensory vision that can see through material appearances and see things that ordinary people cannot see.

Therefore, the six immortals at the peak of the Taiyi Golden Immortal Realm saw the golden wheel of merit as dazzling as the sun behind Cheng Long's head as soon as they opened their Dharma eyes.

"This, this, this..."

Tian Peng was dumbfounded and muttered to himself, "Impossible, absolutely impossible, how could someone in the world have such a huge amount of merit? This merit is enough to become a saint!"

The Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors who guard the Fire Cloud Cave may not have as much merit as Cheng Long.

No wonder Tianpeng was so surprised.

The Five Extreme War Gods, who surrounded the five members of the Yang family and Cheng Long in a fan shape, were so shocked that they were speechless.

"Princess, who exactly is this person?"

Tianpeng really couldn't understand why an immortal with so much merit could still be unknown. Yun Zhongzi, the immortal of virtue and fortune under Yuanshi Tianzun of Kunlun Mountain, was chosen by Yuanshi Tianzun as his disciple because of his merits?
Moreover, Yun Zhongzi's luck and merits are far less than Cheng Long's.

A virtuous immortal like Cheng Long must have done something beneficial to the heaven and earth in order to gain merit. The great merit from heaven would make a huge noise and it would be impossible for it not to be discovered by the transcendent saints. He definitely could not be an unknown person.

This is what Tianpeng is most confused about.

"Does it matter?"

Yao Ji looked at Tianpeng quietly.

She has been curious about Cheng Long's background for three years, but what can she do if Cheng Long won't tell her?

A person who has cultivated the Golden Wheel of Merit will be favored by heaven and earth no matter where he goes, just like Yun Zhongzi in the period of Conferred Gods. In the Yellow River Formation, all the Twelve Golden Immortals were collected into the Hunyuan Golden Bowl. However, except Yun Zhongzi, the rest of them had the three flowers on their heads cut off and became ordinary people.

If you mess with the Immortal of Fortune, you will be despised by heaven and earth. Stagnation in your realm will be a small matter. You may even be invaded by inner demons during your cultivation and go astray.

Cheng Long has so many merits and virtues that even a saint would not take action against him casually, let alone Tianpeng, a mere human who has taught three generations of disciples.

"I didn't expect that Master Cheng is actually a true immortal. I am so sorry for my disrespect!"

Marshal Tianpeng bowed in greeting, with a hint of difficulty between his brows. Cheng Long, who possessed the Golden Wheel of Merit, was equivalent to Zhen Yuanzi who possessed the Book of the Earth in the prehistoric world. Those who were capable of defeating him dared not, and those who were not capable could not defeat him.

Because the Book of Earth is made from the fetal membrane of the earth, if one destroys the Book of Earth, one will be burdened with boundless karma, which will give even saints a headache.

The situation Tianpeng is facing now is the same. Cheng Long is determined to protect Yang Chan, and he really doesn't dare to do anything shady, even if it's just to trap Cheng Long and kill Yang Chan.

On the one hand, it would offend the Immortal Fude, which would cause endless troubles.

On the other hand, Yang Chan has a special identity. The Jade Emperor is just angry now. Once he calms down, he may not be able to have the heart to kill his own nephew and niece.

"Marshal Tianpeng, the princess betrothed Chan'er to me, so she is a member of my Cheng family. Yang Jiao and Yang Jian are my eldest and second uncles. I wonder if you could give me some face and let these three siblings go?"

Cheng Long bowed and pleaded.

If one's cultivation is not good enough, one can make up for it with face. This is all that one can do. Whether one can save the Yang brothers and sisters depends entirely on whether Tianpeng gives him face.

"Master Cheng, Yang Chan is your wife now, so it's fine to let her go. But I have to take Yang Jiao and Yang Jian back to the Jade Emperor for his fate. I hope you won't make it difficult for me."

Tianpeng is actually very easy to talk to. But if you replace him with the fictional character Dajinwu in "The Legend of the White Snake", not only will he not give him face, he won't even treat his own aunt as his own and will start fighting if they disagree with him.

However, the Big Golden Crow in the play does not exist. Yao Ji once told Cheng Long that the Jade Emperor only had seven daughters.

Come to think of it, Jinwu is the descendant of the Demon Emperor during the Demon and Witch Catastrophe period, and has nothing to do with the Jade Emperor at all. Original characters that are too outrageous should not exist. This is ridiculous.

"Master Cheng, you just need to take good care of Chan'er. I will send Jiao'er and Jian'er away."

Say it.

Without waiting for Yang Jiao and Yang Jian to react, Yao Ji directly used two large teleportation talismans to slap them, sending them away in front of them.

When the Five Pole War God saw this scene, he was so angry that his face turned green.

The Sky God of War angrily scolded, "Princess, we have given Tian Peng a lot of face and given him a chance to persuade you to return to heaven to be punished, but you are so ungrateful. In this case, don't blame us for being ruthless."

"I am also thinking about the children..."

Yao Ji knew that what she did was wrong, but as a mother, the most important thing she should do was to ensure the safety of her children. Chan'er was taken care of by Cheng Long, and the eldest and second oldest were also sent away.

Next, she only needs to take good care of Tianyou to protect her family.

"Hey~ Princess, I really don't want to fight, but you always make things difficult for me. What should I do?" Tianpeng looked embarrassed. It was not right to fight, nor was it right not to fight.

This job is really a hardship. "Humph, why are you still talking about this? The princess is determined to disobey her order, so we have no choice but to fight." The Sky God of War, the eldest of the Five Extreme Gods of War, directly raised the spear in his hand and stabbed at Yang Tianyou.

"you dare!"

Yao Ji roared, her aura surged, and she appeared in front of Yang Tianyou in an instant. She swung her sword and the magic power in her body surged out, turning into strands of sword light, pouring towards the God of War in the sky.

"kill!"

The five war gods complement each other. Now that the eldest brother and the eldest prince have taken the initiative, the remaining four war gods of the earth, the war god among men, the war god of the South Pole and the war god of the North Pole have all rushed forward to encircle and suppress the eldest princess of heaven together with the eldest brother.

The fifth-level war gods are all at the peak of the Taiyi realm, and are proficient in the art of combined attack. Although Yao Ji is a Daluo Jinxian, she is injured. The newly grown heart is only the size of a pigeon egg. She still uses Yang Tianyou's heart on a daily basis. The couple has shared one heart for almost twenty years.

"Brother Cheng, take Chan'er away quickly to avoid any changes."

Looking at Yao Ji, who was in a miserable state under the siege of the Five War Gods, Yang Tianyou seemed to have made some decision. He cast a pleading look at Cheng Long, signaling him to leave.

"Brother Yang, take care!"

Cheng Long cupped his hands.

Then, he grabbed Yang Chan's arm and teleported thousands of miles away.

Yang Tianyou, who had no worries, suddenly pulled out a knife from his bosom and said to Marshal Tianpeng: "Marshal Tianpeng, Yao Ji violated the Heavenly Law because I took advantage of her. When Yao Ji was arresting the three-headed divine dragon and descending to the mortal world, she was attacked by the three-headed divine dragon in disguise, causing her heart to be crushed..."

"Then I met her. Seeing her dignified and beautiful appearance, I couldn't help but have evil thoughts. I took the initiative to give my heart to her and share my heart with her."

"So all these years, I have been controlling her. She and the child are innocent. I just hope that after I die, you can report the truth to the Jade Emperor. The crime is all mine."

Say it.

After taking a lingering look at Yao Ji, Yang Tianyou suddenly raised the dagger and slashed it hard across her neck.

In an instant, blood gushed out and the carotid artery in the neck was torn, so deep that the bone was visible.

He is extremely strong and a ruthless person.

"God bless!"

Yao Ji let out a heart-wrenching wail, her heart filled with grief. Her momentum surged again, and she unexpectedly broke out of the encirclement of the Five Extreme War Gods and appeared beside Yang Tianyou.

Afterwards, Yao Ji hugged Yang Tianyou's body in her arms, and tears couldn't help but flow out.

Tianpeng, who had not taken any action, couldn't help but sigh when he saw Yao Ji's heartbroken look.

In fact, Tianpeng didn't have any good feelings towards Yang Tianyou at the beginning, until he saw that Yang Tianyou was willing to bear the crime and die in order to protect his family, and then he accepted him.

No matter what, Yang Tianyou is still a good person.

As for the other party's claim that he used one heart to control Yao Ji for nearly twenty years, that is simply impossible. Gods can live without hearts. Even if the two of them shared one heart, it would only be a little more telepathy.

Speaking of control, Yao Ji is fine at controlling Yang Tianyou, but Yang Tianyou is just dreaming when he wants to control her in return.

No matter how Yao Ji fell in love with a mortal like Yang Tianyou, at least this guy was willing to sacrifice his life in the face of danger. Before committing suicide, he asked Master Cheng to take his little daughter away, not wanting the child to see the scene of her father committing suicide. It is no exaggeration to say that fatherly love is as strong as a mountain.

It is not easy for a scholar to achieve this level, and Tianpeng admires him very much.

At this time, Yao Ji was distracted by the death of her lover. The Five War Gods took advantage of Yao Ji's distraction and attacked together, sealing Yao Ji on the spot.

Yang Tianyou died, Yao Ji was sealed, and except for Yang Jiao and Yang Jian who escaped, Tianpeng’s mission can be said to be half completed.

He just coughed lightly and said to the Five Extremes War Gods, "My friends, the main criminal committed suicide out of fear of punishment, and Princess Yao Ji has also been captured. It's time for us to return to Heaven to report."

Tian Peng has been helping Yao Ji's family intentionally or unintentionally. This time, he urged the Five War Gods to return to heaven, and he was also taking the risk to provide shelter. However, the leader of the Five War Gods, Tian Kong Zhan Sha, heard this and replied coldly:
"Marshal, this is wrong. The Jade Emperor ordered us to strangle Yang Tianyou and his children. Although Yang Tianyou has been executed, his three children have escaped."

"They are just a few kids. Can they really cause any trouble? It's better to let them grow old and die!"

Tianpeng waved his hand disapprovingly.

Ji Yao didn't expect that Tianpeng would help her openly or secretly. She felt very uncomfortable when she thought about how she had scolded him before coming to the mortal world and asked him not to have any lustful thoughts.

"If they were really just mortals, it wouldn't be a big problem, but they have the eldest princess' blood flowing in their bodies. If they just get a little chance, they can cultivate and become immortals. If we let them go and cause trouble in the future, who will take the responsibility?"

The Sky God of War is more stubborn, but the others are quite good and don't care about it. As long as the marshal can persuade the eldest brother, they will never say a word.

In the final analysis, it is the Jade Emperor's family affair, and the Earth War Gods are also afraid that good intentions may lead to bad results.

Hunting down the Jade Emperor's own nephew and niece is not an easy task.

They were more inclined to take the people back.

"This……"

Just when Tian Peng was in a dilemma, the God of War among Humans suddenly spoke up, "Brother, how about you and the Marshal take the princess back first, and let us brothers lead the search with Yang Jiao and Yang Jian?"

The Sky God of War thought about it, nodded and said, "Well, then you will lead 100,000 heavenly soldiers to search for those remnants, and kill them on the spot after you catch them."

"Yes."

The God of War nodded helplessly.

Upon hearing this, Yao Ji's face turned extremely pale, and despair appeared in her eyes.

Any one of the Five Extreme War Gods can easily kill Yang Jiao and his men. If they were to find the people, both the eldest and second sons would die, and even Yang Chan would be in danger.

"No, no, even if we have to hunt you down, I will be the leader. I am the commander. The mission has been completed, so how can I go home early?"

"Princess, you should send him back!"

What Marshal Tianpeng is most worried about now is that the Five Pole War Gods will find Yao Ji's child alone and will be unable to provide help.

His principle was to delay as long as possible until the Jade Emperor's anger subsided and he withdrew the order to kill his nephew and niece.

"Marshal, the eldest princess is a delicate person, so it would be more appropriate for you to take her back personally. Yang Jiao, Yang Jian, and Yang Chan will be strangled by the five of us brothers."

The Sky God of War looked up and looked directly at Marshal Tianpeng. Marshal Tianpeng's eyes were a little evasive. After a few breaths, Tianpeng finally did not agree.

The excuse was that the commander-in-chief could not escape from the battlefield, so the task of escorting Yao Ji back to heaven was directly handed over to the God of War in the Sky and the God of War in the Earth.

He led the God of War among Men, the God of War in the South Pole, the God of War in the North Pole, and 100,000 heavenly soldiers to search the world for the three siblings of the Yang family. (End of this chapter)
