I was taken away by Xi Zhuo.

Passing through the layers of guards at Jinghu Palace, we didn't go to Cangwu, but instead went to the mortal realm.

In a small courtyard, I saw a girl washing her hands and making soup for him.

She struggled to gather firewood, then roasted a sweet potato and rubbed her hands in eager anticipation.

Then I realized that the girl seemed to be making soup for herself.

Because when she saw Xi Zhuo and me come in, she chose to use her body to block the sweet potato.

Just kidding, even if I starve to death, I won't snatch her sweet potato. Besides, we immortals cannot starve to death.

Half an incense stick later

, I held a sweet potato in my hand and had a long conversation with her.

Hehe, it smells good.

The girl is the earthly incarnation of the rumored Black Lotus Flower.

Her name is Qing Lianzi.

"You are the Heavenly Emperor Zhu Lan? Where is your beard? I have long wanted to see the beautiful sister with a long beard."

I knew it. There will always be someone who appreciates my aesthetics.

I transformed my beard and saw Qing Lianzi's expression of admiration.

Then, I heard another truth from Qing Lianzi.

She and the Black Lotus Flower crossed over together.

Their souls were originally attached to a pair of conjoined and blooming lotus flowers in the demon realm. Qiao Chu, the Black Lotus Flower, actually directly cut off Qing Lianzi and sent her into the cycle of reincarnation in order to absorb more nutrients.

Therefore, Qing Lianzi's soul was incomplete and had to constantly reincarnate in the mortal realm with her memories intact. Fortunately, she still retained some divine power and could manipulate a bit of divine scripture. However, her current physical body is mortal, and each time she enlightens a person, she has to reenter the cycle of reincarnation.

Moreover, this enlightenment is useless for herself.

Qiao Chu's goal is to destroy the world, and the only obstacle is me, the Heavenly Emperor who originally bore the heavenly mandate.

That's why she surrounded my palace with the God of War. In addition, on the surface, she escaped with me, but in fact, she and Qiao Chu are in cahoots, aiming to lower my guard and imprison me in Jinghu Palace until the celestial mandate on me completely dissipates at the specific formation location.

On the other hand, Qing Lianzi's goal is to save the world. She wants to protect my safety and eliminate Qiao Chu and her group.

"You can choose not to believe me, but I really have no ill intentions towards you, otherwise, why would I share half of the sweet potato with you?"

Qing Lianzi covered her chest, and the pain in her eyes seemed genuine.

"Forget it, you'd better not believe me. Otherwise, give me back the sweet potato first."

I held the sweet potato in my hand firmly and said decisively:

"Anything that falls into my hands doesn't have a reason to go back."

"No."

I don't know if these words are true or not, but this sweet potato is really delicious.

In the middle of the night, I looked out the window and contemplated the possibility of Mei opening three times.

Unfortunately, there was no sign of any movement.

The barrier of the Emperor is still more solid than that of Feng Yi, that kid.

It's strange that the red earring on my ear doesn't seem to have been discovered by them, as if it doesn't exist.

This matter has become increasingly confusing.

I never expected that some of the people who were once closest to me would become objects of my suspicion.

And I am alone, with no one to share the burden.

But since things have come to this point, I might as well be lazy.

I blew the cold wind and somewhat missed my heavenly palace, where I lived for a long time, although it was boundless, I don't know if the dogtail grass I raised is still alive.

In the midst of speaking, I sighed.
