The Journey Of Yin And Yang 7 Celestial Palace Vii

Ice High G.o.d Frost and Snow couldn't help but be worried over their child, even if they understand her reasoning.

Ying's involvement might decrease the chance of death penalties, since both Ying and Yang were heirs of Major Clans. If the Celestial Emperor ordered execution of both G.o.ds, the two clans wouldn't be pa.s.sive. He would then lose the support from them and in worst scenario they might even cause a rebellion.

As the pillars of the Celestial Realm, their withdrawal would remarkably lessen the defence forces. By then, nothing would ensure that the Demon Realm wouldn't engage and destroy the long lasted peace between the Realms.

"Fine. Considering that minor G.o.d Yang and Ying are still young, they shall be pardoned from death."

Hearing this, both the Fire and Ice Clans were elated. But before the euphoria had peaked, they were once again thrown into the pit by the Emperor's following words.

"However, they still have to be punished. I hereby order the Fire G.o.d Yang and Ice G.o.d Ying to suffer in a mortal trial of the first rank. With this trial, I hope that they can learn to coexist in harmony and help each other. Without completing the given object, they shall not ascend from mortality."

The judgement was a bit harsh, since the first ranked trials were the most difficult ones. This was however a much better alternative than death, so Magma and Ember were still relieved. At the same time, Frost and Snow were a bit bitter since their daughter would have originally escaped conviction.

"Thank you, your Majesty, for your mercy!" The Fire and Ice Clan responded together.

With a hand gesture, the Celestial Emperor signalled for his trusted attendant to investigate the incident with the cup. Flash nodded and dismissed himself from the scene.

"Let us now continue with the banquet."

The Emperor sat down, followed by all the guests. Ying and Yang also returned to their seats. Along the way, Yang couldn't help but sneak a few glances at Ying. In the past he had thought her to be cold and arrogant, who always dismissed him as if he was a child and she an adult. Right now, he realized that she was actually somewhat caring and considerate. He even risked her own life to protect him, which caused him to feel deep grat.i.tude.

Ying was at the same time aware of Yang's changed att.i.tude, but didn't put much importance to it. She had always been quite indifferent to worldly affairs. Her main goal was to increase her cultivation and reach the peak of the world. Then she would finally be able to fulfill her greatest wish...
