I am a boss in the world of nine uncles

"My eldest son, is what Chang'e said true?"

Just as the Heavenly Emperor's expression grew increasingly grim due to Chang'e's words, the Heavenly Empress suddenly inquired.

The eldest prince quickly explained, "That is a great misconception! The dragon has been tempered by the passage of three thousand years of sunlight and moonlight, and has already shown signs of repentance."

Faced with the Jade Rabbit, which was meant to be a trial, it hesitated repeatedly and never took a bite.

It was Chang'e's sudden appearance that startled the dragon, causing it to go berserk and swallow the Jade Rabbit, thus triggering the events that followed.

All my brothers can testify to this.

“Yes, yes, we can all testify for our eldest brother.” Under his gaze, apart from the taciturn ninth brother, the other brothers all chimed in in agreement.

Chang'e frowned: "That's not how it is, you're framing me!"

"Okay, stop talking."

The Heavenly Emperor glanced at the Heavenly Empress, then said to his children, "You are siblings, not enemies. Even if there are some conflicts, you should value harmony."

"Yes, Your Majesty," the eldest prince said first.

Chang'e: "..."

In such an environment, how much injustice must the original owner have suffered over the years?

In comparison, I was countless times happier than her in the past...

"Heavenly Emperor, the brother and sister should value harmony, but Hou Yi cannot be tolerated."

The Heavenly Empress suddenly said, "Last time, he defied you in public, and you still protected him, without cutting off his divine bones or crippling his cultivation. This made him even more arrogant, and he once again trespassed into the Heavenly Realm, treating the Heavenly Rules and Precepts as nothing. If we continue to indulge him, who knows what kind of trouble he will cause in the future."

The Heavenly Emperor paused slightly: "He ultimately saved Chang'e..."

"Are the eldest princes just going to stand by and watch Chang'e get into trouble? Do they need him to save her?" the Empress retorted.

The Heavenly Emperor remained silent.

Whether he would just stand by and watch is hard to say.

Seeing that he fell silent when faced with a difficult question, the Empress sneered and then said, "Fine, I won't force you. If you won't issue an arrest warrant, I will; as the Empress, I should have that authority, shouldn't I?"

"Hou Yi came to save me, what crime did he commit?" Chang'e couldn't help but ask.

"shut up!"

The Heavenly Empress coldly retorted, "I haven't settled this score with you yet. Why did Hou Yi come to save you? How did you two become connected? You've spoken up for him time and time again; have you fallen for him? Do you even remember the Heavenly Rules and Precepts?"

Chang'e: "..."

"Chang'e, come with me," the Heavenly Emperor said, turning around.

Chang'e let out a soft breath, and then followed the Heavenly Emperor as they slowly left the area, strolling to a sea of ​​clouds.

"Chang'e, you must never talk back to Xihe again. She is my wife, and you are my daughter. Watching you two quarrel makes me, the supreme ruler, feel incredibly depressed." The Heavenly Emperor suddenly stopped at the edge of the sea of ​​clouds and spoke softly.

Chang'e responded in a low voice, "I just felt like she was targeting me."

"Don't you still have me to protect you? Besides, she is, after all, a mother, and the mother of the three realms. What's wrong with you giving in to her?"

"It's just a matter of saving face. If it really harms your vital interests and safety, I'll be the first to object," the Heavenly Emperor said, downplaying the seriousness of the matter.

Chang'e nodded: "I understand."

"Go, and remember what I said: patience will bring peace. There's no need to fight to the death over disputes that don't touch on fundamental interests," the Heavenly Emperor admonished.

half an hour.

Chang'e flew back to the Moon Goddess Palace, and the little dragonfly fairy immediately came up to her: "Palace Master, are you alright?"

"It's alright, I'm going to continue my seclusion. Don't let anyone disturb me," Chang'e said, waving her hand.

Dragonfly Fairy: "..."

At that moment, she suddenly understood the Palace Master's choice.

In the Heavenly Court, only those with sufficient strength can ensure they are not bullied...

"Click."

She hurried into the palace, closed the gates, and watched as the walls and gates suddenly shimmered with dazzling light. Chang'e couldn't help but sigh:

"Even the Heavenly Emperor advised me to be patient for now so that things would calm down. This Heavenly Palace is really not a place for humans to stay."

Qin Yao appeared in the void and slowly came to her side: "So, let's go; reducing contact is not about escaping, but the ultimate wisdom of reducing trouble and friction."

Chang'e nodded, and after he released the dimensional gate, she said seriously, "There is one more thing. The Heavenly Queen has issued a warrant for your arrest."

Qin Yao led her from the Moon Goddess Palace back to the thatched hut in the human village, and with a wave of his sleeve, the golden light gate dissipated: "I expected it."

Chang'e looked curious: "Why didn't you disguise yourself before you appeared? You shouldn't have been unaware of that, right? Although I only remembered it later."

Qin Yao said, "The sudden appearance of a man of unknown origin, whose face is covered, to save Chang'e has a much greater impact than the appearance of Hou Yi to save Chang'e."

First, it will affect your reputation; many scandals will arise.

Secondly, the Heavenly Emperor and Empress will definitely investigate this matter thoroughly, so don't even think about coming down to the mortal realm with me so peacefully.

A touch of emotion welled up in Chang'e's heart, and she stared at him with unblinking eyes: "I forgot you were thinking of me... Thank you."

Qin Yao waved his hand and said, "There's no need for thanks between us. However, the Empress's arrest warrant cannot be ignored, so I'll change my appearance."

As soon as he finished speaking, his appearance and figure changed continuously under the dazzling light of the immortals, and he quickly returned to his original form.

"You look better this way," Chang'e said sincerely.

Qin Yao chuckled and then released the jade rabbit with a flick of his sleeve.

"Where is this?" the seemingly confused fairy asked blankly.

"This is the human world," Chang'e replied.

"what?"

The Jade Rabbit's eyes widened immediately: "If I'm eaten by that ferocious beast, I'll fall to the mortal realm?"

Qin Yao laughed out loud: "You weren't eaten, we saved you."

The Jade Rabbit suddenly realized what was happening and immediately knelt down, saying, "Thank you both for your kindness."

Chang'e helped him up and said gently, "From now on, you should stay on Earth and not ascend to heaven again."

The Jade Rabbit nodded with lingering fear: "Everyone says that those who ascend to heaven become immortals, and that immortals are so wonderful. Who would have thought that after ascending to heaven, one would have to become a servant first?"

"That's how it is in Heaven. You either become a slave or a heavenly soldier or general," Chang'e nodded.

Looking at her gentle face, Jade Rabbit suddenly said, "Sister, I don't know why, but I feel an instant connection with you. Can I follow you? I'd even be willing to be your servant."

Chang'e was taken aback.

Things like getting along well...

Could this jade rabbit be the same jade rabbit that Chang'e belongs to in this world?

“Since she has this intention, you should accept her,” Qin Yao said with a smile. Chang’e understood immediately and nodded slightly: “Alright, you can stay by my side from now on, nominally mistress and servant, but in reality, sisters.”

The Jade Rabbit was overjoyed: "Thank you, sister!"

That night.

The village elder, the old wizard, personally came to the thatched hut and said loudly, "Reporting to the Heavenly God, the banquet is ready."

Inside the thatched hut, Qin Yao smiled and replied, "You've arrived..."

Before long, looking at the completely unfamiliar man in front of him, the wizard father asked in astonishment, "What is this?"

If he hadn't remembered the other person's voice, he probably would have thought it was a different person.

Qin Yao explained, "This is what I originally looked like."

The wizard father suddenly realized, and then looked at the jade rabbit: "And who is this?"

“She is my maid,” Chang’e said.

The wizard father nodded: "You are beautiful, and your maid is also a beauty among beauties."

Chang'e chuckled: "You flatter me."

The wizard father waved his hand repeatedly, then led them to a threshing ground, where many bonfires and large pots were set up. The aroma of roasted meat and wine mingled together, making one's mouth water.

The wizard father sat with the three of them in the center, eating and drinking while watching the villagers sing and dance, but in his heart he was thinking: how to keep these two gods in their village.

This world is too dangerous. Monsters are everywhere, and villagers lose their lives every year or even every month because of them.

But if their village were protected by the gods, they would surely be spared from the demonic calamity...

The celebrations lasted from dusk until late at night before the bonfire party finally came to an end, and the village gradually quieted down.

However, the wizard father was secretly walking among the houses, plotting something...

The next day.

From early morning, villagers kept visiting the thatched hut, bringing pots, pans, and even items like bone needles and hemp thread. Every face was filled with affection and admiration, which brought great emotional value to the three of them.

Qin Yao knew very well that this was organized by his wizard father, who wanted to use personal relationships as a bond to try to keep them here.

However, he hadn't triggered any missions yet, and Hou Yi's destined moment hadn't arrived, so he wasn't opposed to staying for a while. Seeing that he couldn't refuse their hospitality, he eventually accepted the gifts.

"I must say, with these things, the thatched cottage feels more like a home."

As noon approached, looking at all the daily necessities in the thatched hut, the Jade Rabbit grinned.

Chang'e smiled and said, "The problem is, we don't need most of the things here."

The Jade Rabbit laughed and said, "What does it matter? It's fine as a decoration..."

A blink of an eye.

a few days later.

Because of the village's bountiful hunt, the old shaman once again announced a bonfire feast, and many village women started preparing from the afternoon, washing pots, picking vegetables, cutting meat and chopping bones.

Amidst bursts of laughter and cheerful conversation, the warmth of everyday life filled the air.

For demons that feed on smoke, this aroma of cooking is like the bright moon in the night, or the fragrant food they smell when they are starving. Before they know it, strange and grotesque monsters appear nearby and keep approaching the village.

Inside the thatched hut, Qin Yao slowly narrowed his eyes, stood up and said, "Some unclean things have come, I'll go and deal with them; Chang'e, you take the Jade Rabbit and guard the village."

Chang'e nodded: "Be careful."

Qin Yao smiled and said, "Don't worry, unless it's a demon lord-level monster, ordinary monsters are like chickens and dogs in my hands."

Having said that, his body suddenly transformed into a streak of light, swiftly arriving at a main road and stopping the group of terrifying demons.

"Roar……"

The demons roared in unison, trying to scare away the humanoid beast that exuded endless danger.

Qin Yao smiled, and with a flick of his hand, summoned two balls of karmic fire, which he casually tossed out.

Two unfortunate creatures resembling aliens were struck by the karmic fire and screamed as they leaped about, thus spreading the flames to other demons and causing chaos among the surrounding monsters, creating a comical scene.

But at that very moment, Qin Yao suddenly sensed a familiar aura. He focused his gaze and saw a figure shrouded in a black robe standing on the mountaintop, silently watching the mountain path.

With a thought, he instantly appeared on the mountaintop, his eyes gleaming with golden light, revealing the other party's true form as a dragon: "I didn't come looking for trouble, yet you dare to show yourself in front of me!"

The dragon waved its hands repeatedly: "I'm not here to cause you any trouble. Those monsters below have nothing to do with me. I'm here to find Dafeng. His last remaining traces are around here."

Qin Yao said calmly, "I killed the Great Wind Demon. If you want revenge, you can do it now."

The dragon remained silent for a moment, then shook its head: "Hou Yi, although you killed six of my brothers, I actually feel that we are the same kind of people."

"Bullshit, you're not even human," Qin Yao retorted directly.

The dragon remained calm and composed, not angry. "You know the Empress has issued an arrest warrant for you, otherwise you wouldn't be in this state. If you hadn't intervened, I wouldn't have recognized you."

Qin Yao said, "What are you trying to say? That because the Empress has issued an arrest warrant for me, I should join forces with you?"

"Only by joining forces can we overthrow the tyrannical rule of the Emperor and Empress, and ensure that ascension is no longer a deception, or rather, a trap."

The dragon said with a sincere expression, "As you have seen, once cultivators in the lower realms ascend, whether human or demon, they become slaves to others; there is no other choice."

Within the celestial realm, the Heavenly Laws are incredibly severe, especially considering that this is not during a chaotic era, causing immense suffering to the gods.

Not to mention, the Emperor and Empress were sucking blood in the Immortal Realm, and the Ten Princes were even more arrogant and domineering. This whole family was a menace.

In other words, they are the greatest thieves in the world, the most savage predators.

Upon hearing this, Qin Yao sneered.

This guy keeps saying how cruel the emperor and empress are, and how arrogant the tenth prince is, but in fact, isn't that how all powerful people have always been? If this guy were in charge, he would probably be even more ruthless.

But just as he was about to retort based on this point, lines of characters suddenly flashed before his eyes, silencing his unspoken question:
[System Task: May Humanity Flourish.]

【Task Details: The ruler of the Three Realms, the Heavenly Emperor Di Jun, advocates the philosophy of governing by non-interference. He believes that the world has its own operating system, and as long as the laws are set, everything can operate according to the laws without much intervention.

Over time, he became a ruler who was indifferent to both the mortal and immortal realms and indulged in the praises of the gods.

Little did they know that his governing philosophy caused undercurrents in the immortal realm, the decline of the human race, the rampant spread of demons, and the deaths of millions of corpses, a truly horrific sight.

May the flame of humanity endure, overthrow the inactive rule of the Heavenly Emperor, select a hero of humanity to be the Jade Emperor, and let humanity prosper throughout the Three Realms.

[Task Rewards: Depends on final task completion.]

His eyes quickly scanned the lines of characters, and for a moment, Qin Yao was at a loss for words.

In the original drama, Di Jun was indeed like this, not caring about anything and advocating non-interference, which led to the human world being ravaged by demons.

Hou Yi, following the will of Heaven, fought with all his might to slay the demons, including Da Feng, but still perished.

And what about Di Jun?

Even after the war ended, he remained the supreme Heavenly Emperor, still implementing the same governing philosophy. Despite Hou Yi's many efforts, nothing seemed to have changed.

In other words, the most cruel, ruthless, and powerful boss in this world is not the dragon standing before him, but rather the seemingly benevolent and doting ruler of heaven and earth, who dotes on Chang'e! (End of Chapter)
