But why had the hot potato fallen into his hands when the actual person involved, Ji Changsheng, had yet to appear?
He wanted to stay out of it and enjoy the show just like Empress Nuwa.
Hao Tian looked at Zi Wei, indicating that she should deal with it herself, as this had nothing to do with him.
Emperor Zi Wei understood Hao Tian's meaning and decisively spoke, "Marshal Tianpeng has always remained aloof from women, and he has never been to Taiyin Star. Even if you gave him three times the courage, he would not dare to harass Chang'e Fairy. Your Majesty, I suspect that Tianpeng has been framed, with the aim of instigating discord between me and Great Mage Xuandu."

Hao Tian looked towards Great Mage Xuandu.

Great Mage Xuandu remained silent.
