When Ping An led them to various places to provide disaster relief, the gods from the upper realm even had a special debate about this matter in the Heavenly Palace.

The gods who carried out this heavenly punishment collectively complained to the Emperor of Heaven.

They said: "Ping An, as the child of Xiao Yunyan and Li Mohan, is also a deity who came to the human world to gain experience. He ignored the punishment from heaven and led the dragon and phoenix tribes to rescue the people who should have been punished by heaven.

Their actions ensure that those who should have died and entered the next reincarnation remain safe and sound.

People who should have suffered from displacement, lack of food and clothing returned to their hometowns and lived and worked in peace and contentment.

All the heavenly punishments were disrupted, so Xiao Yunyan, Li Mohan and Li Ping'an, knowing that it was heavenly punishment, still tried their best to change the operating mechanism of heaven. Their actions had violated the rules of heaven.

However, Xiao Yunyan, Li Mohan and their children have special identities, and they are pure-minded. Everything they do is good deeds without expecting anything in return. Therefore, they have been recognized by you, the Emperor of Heaven, and most of the gods. We dare not dispute it.

However, these kind people in the world had no cultivation and did not understand cultivation. Ping An took them across time and space to save people, giving them the opportunity to see the truth that should not be known by ordinary people, and took them to participate in disaster relief without hesitation, quickly accumulating a lot of merit.

The result of this is that people who should have received divine punishment are safe and sound, while ordinary people who should not have accumulated merit so quickly have taken a shortcut.

Therefore, Xiao Yunyan, Li Mohan and Li Pingan, the three gods, knowingly committed a crime. Their actions this time violated the way of heaven. Should they be punished by heavenly thunder?"

Some gods supported Li Pingan and his team because the Heavenly Court had already debated the matter from the beginning. They were die-hard supporters of Xiao Yunyan and Li Mohan, and they firmly believed that good words and good deeds came from the heart of Tao.

The so-called Tao heart mainly refers to the pure heart or the heart of enlightenment that is in harmony with the principles of heaven and righteousness. Confucianism believes that it is the root of virtues such as benevolence, righteousness, courtesy, wisdom, and faith. Taoism regards it as the embodiment of natural laws, and Buddhism calls it Bodhi heart. (The explanation of Tao heart is quoted from Baidu)

Good intentions, good words, and good deeds that come from the heart of Taoism are in line with the Way of Heaven and are not wrong. Therefore, the actions of Li Mohan, Xiao Yunyan, and Li Pingan, the three gods, should not only not be punished, but should be praised. "

Only a few gods support the gods who carry out the heavenly punishment.

They believed that these ordinary people who had no idea what cultivation was should not be given the opportunity to peek into the truth.

If ordinary people saw the truth directly, in order to become immortals, they would find ways to cover up the evil thoughts in their hearts and the evil deeds they had done.

Then, they will intentionally do some good deeds and always portray themselves as kind and loving people.

These people will pay great attention to accumulating merit.

When their merits are complete, the evil thoughts hidden in their hearts will gradually be released. It is very easy for immortals who have cultivated in this way to fall from immortality.

Therefore, we request Xiao Yunyan, Li Mohan and Ping An to work together to erase the memories of these public welfare workers who have gone to various places to participate in disaster relief, and send them back to their original places of residence.

As the instigators, Xiao Yunyan, Li Mohan and Li Pingan must be punished."

Xiao Yunyan's master, Master Ziwei, was so angry that his beard stood up and he was about to criticize.

Emperor Hunyuan also participated in the debate in Heaven this time. He asked his old friend to be patient and not to be impatient. He also signaled Master Ziwei to first see the attitudes of other gods, especially the attitude of the Emperor of Heaven.

There are also some gods who remain neutral and do not participate in the discussion.

They believe that “the Way of Heaven is a complex operating system. It is not only the law of the operation of objective things, but also a natural operating mechanism formed through cause and effect and reincarnation under the joint action of all living beings involved.

Therefore, there should be neither punishment nor reward.

Every participant is already in the cycle of cause and effect, and should not actively intervene, thereby disrupting the natural laws of heaven."

After listening to the opinions of the gods, the Emperor of Heaven expressed his own opinion:

“Everyone has two sides, a good side and an evil side.

If someone can actively suppress or even resolve their evil side, and actively show their good side and persist in it, what's wrong with that?

Human beings are a contradictory unity of good and evil. Taking the initiative to give up evil thoughts, bad words and bad deeds, and promoting good thoughts, good words and good deeds is in line with the law of nature and reincarnation. What's wrong with that?

If someone pretends to be kind once in a while and is usually an evil person, he is just pretending to be kind.

If someone can pretend to be kind all his life, even after becoming a god, then it can be said that he is kind by nature.

Even if some people gradually show evil thoughts after being promoted to immortals, it is because the immortal's Taoism heart is not firm enough and he needs to continue practicing.

Therefore, I believe that Xiao Yunyan, Li Mohan, Li Pingan and other ordinary humans who have followed them to fight in various places and actively engaged in public welfare undertakings should not only not be punished, but also be given some encouraging rewards.

However, these people are all wealthy and virtuous. The material rewards are a bit too perfunctory.

It would be better to give them the opportunity to truly see more of the truth, help them to strengthen their faith in the Tao, accumulate virtue and do good deeds over a long period of time, and stay firm on the path of cultivation."

The Emperor of Heaven's statement was unanimously agreed upon by Master Ziwei and Emperor Hunyuan.

After a heated debate, the gods finally agreed to give these kind-hearted and virtuous members of the charity team the opportunity to glimpse more of the truth.

It enables them to be determined to do good deeds and accumulate virtue, and to stay firm on the path of spiritual practice.

The Emperor of Heaven also affirmed the mission of the gods who carried out heavenly punishment to bring disasters to the human world.

"The duty of the gods is to execute the heavenly punishment. Performing their duties conscientiously and meticulously is the behavior that best conforms to the way of heaven.

You don't have to worry about the final result of the heavenly punishment, just carry out your tasks strictly in accordance with the laws of heaven.

The original intention of heaven's punishment is not to punish, but to educate all living beings.

In a disaster, everyone's actions affect themselves and others.

In the end, all the living beings involved will receive their due consequences under the mechanism of heaven."

The final conclusion of the Emperor of Heaven appeased the resentment of the gods who were executing the heavenly punishment, and they also further realized the significance of their duties.

The way of heaven runs naturally. Don't interfere. All beings in the six realms should do their own thing.

In the end, every living being involved will receive retribution for their words and actions.

This is what Buddhism says: good deeds will be rewarded with good, and evil deeds will be punished with evil.”

Xiao Yunyan, Li Mohan and Li Ping'an, who were still traveling around, had no idea that the Heavenly Court was once again having a heated debate over their words and deeds.

When they went deep into the disaster area to carry out rescue work, they realized that the situation was definitely much more serious than they had imagined and they were really overwhelmed.

Ping An sent a message to his brothers and sisters who were busy in their respective fields, asking anyone who could temporarily spare some time to rescue others to come and provide support immediately.
