Chapter 116 : The Crisis In Human Realm (1)
Every morning, Xie Jianyu went to the Golden Dragon Palace to attend the court meeting. After Liu Wenyuan had been safely recovered from the clutches of the First Demon King, there had been no particularly big issue to address.
Today the Water God and the Wind God came forward with a petition.
"Your Majesty, the Heavenly Emperor," both gods bowed before the Emperor. "We have come to relay the climbing distress of the human beings in the Human Realm."
The Heavenly Emperor furrowed his brows.
"Did the demons do something again?"
The Water God bowed and answered.
"Not directly, Your Majesty. The destruction of the Crescent Mayhem Sect and the expulsion of the demons back to the Demonic Realm have restored the balance between good and evil in the Human Realm. Unfortunately, it does nothing to re-establish the ruined livelihood of the affected human beings."
The Heavenly Emperor hummed as he stroked his long beard.
"Wealth and poverty are determined by wheels of fate. This is not something that we, gods, should interfere with."
This time, it was the Wind God’s turn to speak up.
"Not if it concerns only a bunch of human beings, Your Majesty. Unfortunately, this issue affects too many human beings. While mortal wealth is insignificant for us, gods, it is significant enough for human beings to stray from the right path."
