The eyes of all the gods in the Lingxiao Palace fell on the thin dog. They all had the intelligence of gods, so they reacted immediately and figured out what was going on.
Every general who participated in the "Three Realms Battle" ranking competition showed an expression of disbelief. Li Jing even covered his face and retreated, hiding behind the generals of the Ministry of War and about to cry.
There was a flash of light, and the thin dog stood up, stretched out its body, and in the blink of an eye it turned into a handsome white-haired boy with dog ears.
Xiaotian Dog is also a divine dog. It has long been endowed with the ability to transform into a human, but due to its nature, it likes to stay with its master in dog form and rarely appears in human form.
The young man became the focus of attention. He couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed under the watchful eyes of the crowd. Like a child who had done something wrong, he drooped his ears and whispered, "Master, I was too bored, so I stole the fairy jade you stored in the temple and went to Liberty City to buy a tablet to play games. Please...please forgive Xiaotian..."
Yang Jian patted his head and said lovingly, "I have no use for those fairy jades anyway, so what's wrong with you playing with them?"
The dog-eared boy's ears immediately stood up, his tail wagged rapidly, and he smiled widely.
The owner and his pet were interacting sweetly as if no one was around, but the gods in the Lingxiao Palace had gloomy faces and their mood had fallen to the bottom.
These gods who tried their best but still couldn't make it into the top ten of the ladder can accept their own shortcomings. After all, there are always people who are better than you.
However, saying that they are worse than dogs does involve some kind of humiliation to their personality or divinity.
Yang Jian obviously hadn't figured out the situation yet. He had no idea that his pet dog had already been secretly crowned the God of War in Heaven, and that his defeated generals could reach the Penglai Fairy Mountain from the South Gate of Heaven.
Erlang Shen had never been involved in the farce of selecting a general in Heaven from the very beginning. In addition, due to his aloof and arrogant personality, he disdained to associate with mortals and monsters. Therefore, he had never visited the modern city of the Monster Alliance once.
He had never come into contact with the creations of modern civilization. Moreover, the appearance of electronic products in the mortal world has only happened in the past few decades. Yang Jian was left far behind by the times if he was not careful.
"Let's not talk about the little matter of stealing the fairy jade. What about the sixth place in the Three Realms Contest that the Jade Emperor mentioned? Did you get into trouble?"
Yang Jian said to the white-haired boy domineeringly: "Don't be afraid if you get into trouble. I will support you. Can you get more trouble than me?"
The white-haired boy shook his head timidly and said, "'Three Realms Hegemony' is just a game I often play. I don't know how His Majesty the Jade Emperor knew about my playing a game. Recently, I heard people in the game community discussing that the Heavenly Court would use this game to select the Marshal of the Heavenly Army, so there are so many new players pouring in. I just thought it was a rumor spread by ignorant mortals and didn't pay much attention to it."
Yang Jian frowned and scanned the entire audience sharply. He met the gazes of the generals who were staring at Roaring Sky Dog one by one and glared back at their unwilling looks.
"What are you looking at!"
With a loud shout, Yang Jian said domineeringly: "My Xiaotian is just playing around. No matter how big a mess he makes, if he offends any of you, if you have any dissatisfaction, just come to me and I will take it. If you don't accept it, go out and have a fight now!"
All the gods immediately looked away, not daring to offend this heavenly god who was challenging them alone.
Yang Jian dismissed the gods, raised his head and looked at the Jade Emperor, clasped his hands and said: "Your Majesty, why did you summon me to the palace this time? The atmosphere in the palace is weird, and the gods look unfriendly. If I don't explain it clearly, please forgive me for not accompanying you any longer!"
After saying this, Yang Jian patted the white-haired boy's head, turned around and was about to leave, completely disregarding the occasion of a court meeting and not giving the Jade Emperor any face at all.
The Jade Emperor wanted to say something but hesitated. He stretched out his hand to stop her but then retracted it. He really didn't know how to organize his words to make the matter clear.
"Wait a minute..."
After holding it in for a long time, seeing that Yang Jian and Xiaotian were about to walk out of the gate of Lingxiao Palace, the Jade Emperor finally uttered two words.
Yang Jian turned around, frowned, and stared at the Jade Emperor with a cold face, as if waiting for him to give a reasonable explanation.
"People can go, but dogs have to stay..."
"What! Jade Emperor, you have forgotten the pain now. If you dare to touch my dog, I will kill him and make the Heaven Palace flow with blood!"
The vertical eye between Erlang Shen's eyebrows suddenly opened, emitting a brilliant light. With a flick of his hand, the three-pointed, double-edged sword was across his chest, protecting Roaring Sky Dog behind him.
The murderous aura that erupted was as solid as substance. He was completely unafraid of the great gods and powerful generals standing in front of him in Lingxiao Palace. It looked like he was going to kill everyone in the place if he disagreed with them.
The Jade Emperor couldn't help but feel a chill in his heart. He felt that when he imprisoned his mother, this traitor was not as fierce as he is today. He quickly said, "Don't get me wrong. Don't be angry. Listen to me. I want to make your dog the deputy marshal of the heavenly army."
"Hmm?" Yang Jian was stunned and frowned, "Jade Emperor, what are you playing? You are saying something I can't understand. Are you teasing me? There are so many gods in the heavenly court. Any one of them can be the deputy commander. Are they all worse than a dog?"
All the gods in the Lingxiao Palace lowered their heads in shame at the same time, their movements were in unison, as if they had rehearsed it beforehand.
"Every inch has its own strengths and weaknesses..."
The Jade Emperor's face also turned red, and he tried his best to save face for the generals and himself, saying: "Afterwards, I will let Nezha explain the reason to you in detail. In short, Roaring Sky Dog is a hidden talent who can be of great use, but his origin is after all low, and it is difficult to convince the public. He is temporarily appointed as the deputy marshal of the heavenly army, assisting the marshal of the heavenly army in commanding 100,000 heavenly soldiers and generals."
Erlang Shen and Xiaotian Dog looked at each other, the man and the dog staring at each other, still confused and not understanding what was going on.
"Your Majesty, no matter what the reason is, I don't want to be the deputy marshal of the heavenly army. I just want to be by my master's side and fight alongside him."
Roaring Sky Dog shook his head faster than his tail and refused categorically, "Your Majesty, please take back your order and don't embarrass me and my master."
"puff……"
Wen Rui, who had been watching the show, couldn't help laughing and muttered, "Didn't I tell you long ago that a dog wouldn't even be fit to be the Marshal of the Heavenly Army?"
Although the sarcastic voice was low, the gods in the temple all had sharp senses and could hear it clearly.
The Jade Emperor suppressed his surging anger and advised in a gentle voice: "General Dog, don't shirk your responsibility. Heaven has bestowed a great mission upon this dog. It is a matter of fate. If you don't take what Heaven has given you, you will be blamed. How can a big white dog be depressed and serve under others for so long? I have high hopes for you. Who will be the master between you and Yang Jian in the future is still unknown."
After persuading the dog, the Jade Emperor turned to Yang Jian, raised his eyebrows, and threatened confidently: "Yang Jian, times have changed! Do you think this is still the time hundreds of years ago when you went to Lingxiao alone? Do you really think I can't do anything to you now? Don't force me to deal with you. All the gods present have passed the battle level before they can participate in the qualifying competition. Any commander of the heavenly army can trick you to death! They may not be as good as dogs, but they are more than enough to deal with you!"
Every general who participated in the "Three Realms Battle" ranking competition showed an expression of disbelief. Li Jing even covered his face and retreated, hiding behind the generals of the Ministry of War and about to cry.
