The Celestial Court Rejects Love-Brained Fools

A thousand years ago, after severely punishing an immortal official for neglecting his duties, the iron-fisted Emperor Jueyun was imprisoned by the other immortals on Mount Eight Sufferings.

"I only extended my partner's life by a few thousand years. It was a tiny matter. Why make such a fuss?"

The immortal maiden Jinlv, who wished to marry a farmer in the mortal realm but didn't want to give up immortality, accused her of being heartless.

The Perfected Jade Purity, who longed for lovers to stay together forever but ignored his duties as an immortal, cursed her for being cruel.

The High God Chenyuan, who thought the heavens should guarantee freedom in love and refused to discuss right and wrong, sneered that she had brought it on herself...

A thousand years later, roused by the overwhelmed Heavenly Dao, Jueyun discovered that the Three Realms she had governed so carefully had become a complete mess.

Her mortal husband insisted on taking a concubine, and the immortal maiden Jinlv had become consumed by resentment and fallen into the demonic path.

Under the guise of doting on his partner, the Perfected Jade Purity had committed countless evil deeds, murdering people and robbing them wherever he went.

And the High Immortal Chenyuan, now the Heavenly Emperor Chenyuan, had been driven to the brink of madness by a tragic romance spanning three lifetimes. This lunatic intended to overturn the Six Paths and make the whole world pay for the death of his beloved.

"A ruler who neglects his duty." Jueyun raised her head, her expression cold as her hand rested on her sword. "He has plunged the people into misery. In that case, I'll kill Chenyuan first..."

Before she could finish, the prison formation in the mountain began to hum.

Amid flashes of lightning and peals of thunder, the Heavenly Dao gave an awkward smile. "Sorry, big shot. I'm just a rookie who recently got promoted to a full-time position. Breaking the formation is a bit beyond me... How about I help you start over with a new account?"
