Balala the Magic Fairy
Chapter 54: Ruyi's Conferred God Record (5) (Page 13)
There was a gleam of ruthlessness in Defei's eyes. She knew that she was no longer able to defeat the enemy, so she came up with a plan to escape.
Under siege by the fairies, she suddenly crushed a talisman hidden in her sleeve, and a cloud of black smoke rose up, obscuring everyone's vision.
"Oh no, she's trying to escape!" Lan Wangji's voice was filled with a hint of anxiety.
The black smoke dissipated, and Concubine De's figure disappeared, leaving only a mess on the ground.
"Chase!" Lu Dongbin gave an order, and the Eight Immortals and Ruyi immediately spread out and chased in the direction where Concubine De might have escaped.
Concubine De rushed around in the Heavenly Palace, trying to find a chance to escape.
She knew that she had attracted the attention of the fairies, and if she could not escape in time, she would be severely punished.
However, the Heavenly Palace was heavily guarded, and although Defei was cunning, she found it difficult to find a chance to escape for a while.
Her figure shuttled between the buildings of the Heavenly Palace, fighting with pursuers from time to time, but she was never able to escape.
“De Fei, you have nowhere to escape, why don’t you surrender quickly!” Wei Wuxian’s voice sounded behind De Fei, with a hint of teasing in his flute sounds.
When Concubine De looked back, she saw that the Eight Immortals and Ruyi had surrounded her. She knew that she was in a desperate situation.
"Hahahaha, even if I die, I will drag you down with me!"
A sinister smile appeared on Concubine De's face, and a large amount of black air surged out of her body again, preparing for the final fight with the immortals.
"Power of the Gods, obey my command, purify the evil, and protect the Heavenly Palace!"
There was a hint of determination in Ruyi's voice, and the List of Gods once again emitted a dazzling golden light, purifying the evil spirit of Concubine De one by one.
The Eight Immortals also used their magic spells and engaged in a fierce battle with Concubine De.
The Heavenly Palace was suddenly filled with light, and the fluctuations of magical power spread everywhere.
Although Defei fought hard, her magic power gradually failed under the joint efforts of the Eight Immortals and Ruyi.
Finally, in a fierce confrontation, Defei was hit in the vitals by Lan Wangji's sword and fell from the air.
"De Fei, your actions have violated the rules of heaven. Today, we will capture you and hand you over to the Queen Mother for punishment!"
There was a hint of unquestionable majesty in Lu Dongbin's voice.
There was a glimmer of despair in Concubine De's eyes. She knew that she could not escape today, but she still refused to give in easily.
"You hypocrites, even if I die, I will not let you have an easy life!" There was a hint of resentment in Defei's voice.
However, before she could finish her words, she was subdued by the Eight Immortals and taken to the palace of the Queen Mother.
Under the trial of the Queen Mother, Concubine De was eventually stripped of her immortal status, banished to the Asura realm, and received the punishment she deserved.
/
Defei's behavior eventually angered the Heavenly Court, and divine punishment came.
Natural disasters occurred frequently in the Zhou Kingdom, and people's lives were in dire straits.
"Your Majesty, the punishment from heaven is merciless. We must take measures to appease the people and at the same time plead guilty to the crime and beg for forgiveness from the Heavenly Court."
Ruyi said to Zhou Ninghai at the court meeting.
Zhou Ninghai's face was solemn, he was well aware of the seriousness of the matter.
"Ruyi, you are right. I will immediately issue an order to reduce taxes in the disaster-stricken areas and open the national treasury to provide relief to the victims."
Ruyi nodded, with a hint of worry in her eyes.
"Your Majesty, these measures can alleviate the plight of the people, but if the wrath of heaven cannot be appeased, I am afraid the disaster will continue."
Zhou Ninghai took a deep breath and turned to his ministers.
"My dear ministers, what suggestions do you have?"
An old minister stepped forward and answered respectfully: "Your Majesty, Queen, I suggest holding a sacrificial ceremony to apologize to the heavens and ask for forgiveness."
Ruyi thought for a moment, then slowly said: "The sacrificial ceremony is one solution, but we still need to do something to show our sincerity."
"Empress, what do you think?" Zhou Ninghai asked.
Ruyi stood up, her eyes determined.
"Your Majesty, I am willing to personally go to the disaster area, comfort the victims, and preside over the sacrificial ceremony. At the same time, we also need to promote good governance throughout the country, reduce the burden on the people, and express our regret to the Heavenly Court with practical actions."
Zhou Ninghai nodded, he was satisfied with Ruyi's suggestion.
"Ruyi, I will do as you say. I will go to the disaster area with you and preside over the sacrificial ceremony in person."
Under the leadership of Ruyi and Zhou Ninghai, the Zhou Kingdom launched a massive disaster relief operation.
They reduced taxes, distributed disaster relief supplies, and implemented good policies across the country to reduce the burden on the people.
Ruyi went to the disaster area in person, and her arrival brought hope and comfort to the victims.
She personally participated in disaster relief work, provided food and shelter to the victims, and presided over sacrificial ceremonies to pray for forgiveness from heaven.
"God, Empress Ruyi of Zhou, on behalf of the people of Zhou, apologizes to you. We are fully aware that Concubine De's actions have angered the Heavenly Court. We are willing to accept the punishment, but please have mercy on the innocent people and alleviate their suffering."
Ruyi prayed devoutly at the sacrificial ceremony.
/
With Ruyi's recommendation, Yan Lili was officially canonized as Lipin by Zhou Ninghai for her outstanding performance in fighting against evil spirits.
This news caused quite a stir in the harem, and many concubines were full of awe for the new Concubine Li.
After the enthronement ceremony, Ruyi personally came to Lipin's palace to congratulate her.
"Congratulations on your promotion, Concubine Li." Ruyi said with a smile, with a hint of tenderness in her eyes.
Lipin bowed respectfully and replied, "Thank you, Queen. Lili is where she is today thanks to your support and the grace of the Emperor."
Ruyi waved her hand gently, indicating that Concubine Li didn't need to be polite, and then spoke softly.
"Lipin, your bravery and wisdom are the result of your own efforts. I just stated the facts in front of the emperor."
A trace of gratitude flashed in Lipin's eyes. She knew that Ruyi had done a lot for her behind her back.
"Empress, Lily will definitely remember your kindness and will work harder in the future to live up to your expectations."
Ruyi nodded, with a hint of approval in her eyes.
"Lipin, your loyalty and kindness are a model for our harem. I believe that you will become a capable assistant to the emperor."
Just then, a eunuch hurried in to report.
"Empress, Concubine Li, the God of Wu Qu is outside seeking an audience."
Ruyi and Lipin looked at each other and were both a little surprised.
Wu Qu Star God.
Li Hong.
He is a military general in the Heavenly Palace and seldom sets foot in the Zhou Kingdom on weekdays. His sudden visit today must be for something important.
"Please invite the God of Wu Qu in quickly." Ruyi ordered immediately.
Li Hong walked into the palace. He had an upright posture, a resolute face, and a hint of seriousness in his eyes.
"Your Highness the Queen, Your Highness Lipin, I came here today to discuss an important matter."
Ruyi motioned Li Hong to sit down, and then asked, "Xingjun, please tell me, is there anything important that requires our Zhou Kingdom's assistance?"
Li Hong said in a deep voice: "Recently, the Heavenly Court discovered that a demonic force was causing chaos in Zhou State, and I was ordered to come here to investigate. After some investigation, I found that this demonic force was related to Zhou State's harem."
Lipin's face changed, and she immediately asked, "Xingjun, how did this evil force sneak into the harem?"
Li Hong's gaze stayed on Lipin for a moment, then he spoke slowly.
"As far as I know, this evil force is good at changing, and can disguise itself as various identities and sneak in. I came here this time in the hope that the Queen and Concubine Li can assist me in uncovering this evil force."
Ruyi’s brows were furrowed.
"Xingjun, our Zhou Kingdom is willing to fully assist the Heavenly Court to uncover this evil force. Please give us your orders."
Li Hong nodded, took out a token from his sleeve and handed it to Ruyi.
"This is the token of the Heavenly Court. With it, you can mobilize the Heavenly Court's guards and immortals to fight against the demons together."
Ruyi took the token, with a hint of determination in her eyes.
"Don't worry, Xingjun, we will do our best."
Lipin also took a step forward.
"Xing Jun, although Lipin is not talented, she is willing to do her part for the Heavenly Court."
A smile of approval appeared on Li Hong's face.
"With the assistance of Her Majesty the Queen and Her Majesty Li, I believe this evil force will be completely eradicated."
Afterwards, Ruyi and Lipin began to discuss the specific action plan with Li Hong.
They decided to set up a tight net in the harem and at the same time increase patrols outside the palace to ensure that the evil forces had nowhere to hide.
Under Ruyi's arrangement, the guards and immortals in the harem began strict patrols and inspections.
Concubine Li personally led a team of guards to conduct a thorough search of every corner of the harem.
After some effort, they finally found the traces of the evil forces.
/
On this day, the Heavenly Court received news that Princess Pingning, a disciple of the Jiejiao sect, was dissatisfied with the Heavenly Court and secretly colluded with demons in an attempt to stir up trouble in the Zhou Kingdom.
When the Queen Mother learned about this, she was furious and ordered that Princess Pingning must be severely punished.
Li Hong came to Zhou State again to discuss countermeasures with Ruyi and Lipin.
"Empress, Concubine Li, Princess Pingning's behavior has violated the laws of heaven. We must take action immediately." Li Hong's tone was serious.
Ruyi nodded, her eyes revealing firmness and determination.
"Xingjun, Princess Pingning's behavior is indeed unforgivable. We in Zhou are willing to fully assist the Heavenly Court to bring her to justice."
Lipin also took a step forward, with an unquestionable determination in her voice.
"Empress, I am willing to go there in person and capture Princess Pingning together with the Star Lord."
Ruyi gently patted Lipin's hand, with a hint of approval in her eyes.
"Lipin, your courage and determination are admirable. But we must act with caution. As a disciple of Jiejiao, Princess Pingning must have extraordinary magical powers."
Li Hong nodded, took out a talisman from his sleeve and handed it to Lipin.
"Empress Li, this is a talisman from heaven that can increase your strength. It will be of great help to you in your fight against Princess Pingning."
Lipin took the talisman, a trace of gratitude flashed in her eyes. "Thank you, Xingjun. Lipin will use it carefully."
Afterwards, Ruyi, Lipin and Li Hong went to Princess Pingning's hiding place together.
In a desolate valley, they found Princess Pingning.
There was a hint of sarcasm in Princess Pingning's eyes, and her voice was sharp and harsh.
"Ruyi, do you really think you can stop me? Today, I will show you the power of Jiejiao."
Ruyi's face darkened, and there was a hint of unquestionable majesty in her voice.
"Princess Pingning, your actions have violated the laws of heaven. Today, we will capture you and hand you over to the heaven for punishment."
Princess Pingning sneered, and black energy surged out of her body, transforming into attacks that attacked Ruyi and Concubine Li.
Seeing this, Li Hong immediately swung his sword, and the sword light cut off the black air.
Lipin also activated the talisman, and her body was surrounded by a layer of faint golden light, blocking Princess Pingning's attacks one by one.
