Chapter 2179

At this moment, Taishang Laojun also suddenly said, "The elixirs I have refined have everything one could need. As long as the form and spirit are not completely destroyed, they should all be savable. It is just that I do not know if Erlang Zhenjun is still alive."

When Taishang Laojun said this, he saw a flash of loneliness in Haotian's eyes.

Wu Feng suddenly looked at him and said, "Haotian, what do you think of Erlang Shen?"

"I have heard many immortals say that you relied on his powerful cultivation, but in fact, there is much estrangement between the two of you. In other words, he looks down on you, and you like this nephew even less."

"Sigh—" Haotian suddenly let out a long sigh and said, "Perhaps I have gone too far. In truth, how could I not care for him in my heart?"

"Back then, his mother longed for the mortal world—you know she was my second younger sister—and I suppressed him under Mount Tao to reflect on his mistakes. He has held a grudge against me for this for ten million years and never says a word to me."

"But I also know that Erlang has great ability. Whenever there is an invasion of demons or evil in the Heavenly Court that other immortals cannot handle, Erlang always steps forward."

Wu Feng smiled faintly and said, "I guess what you are thinking in your heart right now is that you want to change the Heavenly Law."

Haotian was stunned; he did not expect Wu Feng to see through his thoughts. He said, "Young Hero Wu Feng has sharp eyes, worthy of being a generation's prodigy. In this battle, I saw Erlang's determination to defend the Heavenly Court. I think the iron laws of the Heavenly Court for ten million years should also be changed. Why can't an immortal long for the mortal world? I cannot even explain to myself why that is."

A smile rose on Wu Feng's face as he said, "It is best that you can think this way."

"In fact, the rules were all set by the Heavenly Emperors of the generations before you. I have observed that this matter of longing for the mortal world has been uninterrupted for ten million years. Although the iron law is there, it still cannot cut off the emotional ties of the immortals."

"Look at Erlang, who fought to the death to protect the Heavenly Court. At the moment he finally fell into the sea of clouds, did you also feel heartache?"

Haotian was stunned again, not expecting Wu Feng to see through his thoughts once more. A flash of contemplation crossed his eyes as he looked at Wu Feng and said, "Erlang, is he still alive?"

A faint smile curled the corners of Wu Feng's mouth as he said, "He should still be alive. I saw that Yu Langjun's last sword strike was not a fatal wound. With Erlang's cultivation, he should not die."

Haotian rolled his eyes upward, as if recalling many things. His eyes were filled with melancholy as he said, "Erlang has extraordinary abilities, a dignified and peerless man. He has always looked at me with cold eyes, not knowing how much this uncle of his admires him in his heart."

"I will send someone to the lower realm immediately to find Erlang, and then release his mother. After that, regarding this rule about longing for the mortal world, if they want to long for it, let them. I will truly no longer manage this matter. Perhaps the heavens are cold and lonely; it is completely understandable that some immortals do not want to be gods."

The Heavenly Emperor's words caused looks of shock to appear in the eyes of all the immortals. ===== CHAPTER 2181 =====
