The End Times as a Song

Chapter 298 Imprisonment 3

"He's just a human, always putting on airs in my Jade Void Palace, who is he trying to impress...? My brother isn't even in the Jade Void Palace right now."

"You were instrumental in finding my brother. The Divine Emperor Yuan Shun allowed you, a human woman, to accompany him to the Heavenly Realm, which was already a great act of mercy. What immense good fortune you must have accumulated to be allowed to remain in this Jade Void Palace? Don't be ungrateful for your blessings. You always think you're something special just because you're my foster mother, acting all high and mighty all the time. You're nothing more than a celestial servant. You really think you can replace my brother's biological mother? You're truly ignorant of your own limitations..."

"This matter has nothing to do with the God of the End Times. Please be careful with your words, Goddess Zheyu, and do not involve the God of the End Times..."

"You dare talk back? I'll teach you a lesson you won't forget..."

"Clap clap..."

Two more lashes followed, and Zheng Shang's fair and delicate face instantly blossomed with bruises.

"You're quite tolerant. Even in this state, I haven't seen you beg for mercy, cry out in pain, or shed a tear. Are you even human? I've never seen any human being so tolerant..."

Wu Zheyu spoke passionately and eloquently, expressing his dissatisfaction over the years with a chilling and ruthless tone, before leaning down and mockingly pinching Zheng Shang's chin.

"What a pity, such a pretty face, it looks like it's going to be disfigured today. Let's see how you seduce my brother then..."

"Please, Goddess Zheyu, watch your words! I am the foster mother of the God of the End Times... Please, Goddess, refrain from speaking disrespectfully and insulting this servant..."

"Oh... so you know you're a servant girl, then admit your mistake now..."

"Zheng Shang didn't touch Goddess Zheyu's clothes, or anything else belonging to her... Goddess, how can Zheng Shang possibly acknowledge this..."

"You shameless zither player, unrepentant... Today, I, the divine lord, will teach you how to behave in the celestial realm..."

Wu Zheyu forcefully slapped Zheng Shang's face away, raising her long whip to strike him. Zheng Shang met the whip head-on without dodging. At the same time, a jade folding fan flew in from outside the Jade Void Palace, catching Wu Zheyu's attention. Wu Zheyu swung her whip, catching the jade fan and flinging it out of the Jade Void Palace.

"Who... dares to meddle in my business..."

Outside the gates of Jade Void Palace, Chengfeng landed with a somersault, turned gracefully to receive the jade folding fan, and appeared inside the main hall of Jade Void Palace. He raised his head, revealing his bright and spirited eyes, smiled slightly, opened the jade folding fan in his hand, and with a refined and polite demeanor, awkwardly called out.

“Ayu…”

"Chengfeng...it's you! What are you doing at Jade Void Palace..."

"Ah Yu, you've already hit him and vented your anger. Shouldn't you give me some face, show some mercy, and let Zheng Shang go..."

"You... you expect me, the Empress, to give you face..."

"Ayu, don't be like this..."

"Get out of my way..."

“Ayu…”

Seeing that Chengfeng had interrupted her punishment, Wu Zheyu was furious and swung her long whip, intending to continue lashing Zheng Shang. Chengfeng, the Divine Lord, stepped forward to stop Wu Zheyu, who thoughtfully stroked the whip. Suddenly, her eyes sharpened, and she rebuked Chengfeng sternly, her tone revealing various threats.

"Lord Chengfeng, are you trying to meddle again...?"

"Chengfeng, I wouldn't dare, how could I..."

Wu Zheyu approached Chengfeng step by step with her whip in hand. Chengfeng raised his hands to show weakness and refuse, his eyes darting around as he helplessly apologized.

"I knew Chengfeng, you coward, that's why you wouldn't dare meddle in my business..."

“That’s right, that’s right… A-Yu is always right…”

Seeing Chengfeng's cowardly appearance, Wu Zheyu stopped bullying him and turned to walk towards Zheng Shang, wanting to continue torturing Zheng Shang for amusement.

Suddenly, a golden light flashed from Lin Moshi, and he stormed into Yuxu Palace. He grabbed Wu Zheyu's hand forcefully and pushed him forward, causing Wu Zheyu to stagger back a few steps.

"Stop... Ah Yu... Haven't you caused enough trouble yet?"

"Brother Apocalypse...you've finally arrived..."

Wu Zheyu blurted out in a sarcastic tone, seemingly implying something deeper.

"What? Is it that I can't come to your Jade Void Palace...?"

Lin Moshi frowned, his eyes widened, and he shouted sharply, his expression becoming extremely terrifying. Wu Zheyu's hand, which had been grabbed, instantly became red and swollen, and she couldn't help but cry out in pain.

"Brother, let me go! Brother, you're hurting me..."

"Ashi, calm down... don't be like this..."

"It hurts, you know what pain is... If I had arrived a moment later, would Zheng Shang have been dead...?"

"Brother, what nonsense are you talking about? Look carefully, I'm your sister. Are you going to treat your sister like this for an outsider...?"

"Outsider...? Sister...?"

As Lin Moshi got excited, his veins bulged, and he exerted force again, causing Wu Zheyu to scream in pain.

"It hurts, it hurts so much... Brother..."

“Ashi,”
