Protect Our Patriarch-Chapter 802 Book 6: 76: Cloudy Sky Tianhe!

---

Shenwu World.

Above the Nine Heavens.

A small domain-crossing flying boat was quietly traversing the void sea at the world's edge.

Inside the boat, Di Xiu Immortal Monarch, with his white hair and beard, exuding an aura of immortality, stood by the porthole in the control room, gazing out at the void through the transparent reinforced glass.

From this perspective, the Shenwu World appeared like a solitary floating island suspended in the vast void sea, immense, majestic, and incredibly spectacular.

Thick layers of astral winds and clouds enveloped the Shenwu World like a thin veil, shimmering under the reflection of the blazing sun. The entire Shenwu World seemed to appear and disappear, yet remained elusive and mysterious, filled with an enigmatic beauty.

"No matter how many times I look at our homeland from this angle, it's always so beautiful," Di Xiu murmured softly.

Before reaching the thirteenth level, he could rely on his strength to traverse the astral wind layer, cloud layer, and the celestial layer to wander above the Nine Heavens.

However, the abilities of the Void Realm were limited to this.

Flying further up would mean leaving the "world's cradle" and facing the threats of the endless void sea. Only True Immortal Realm experts could rely solely on their physical strength to tread the vast void sea and survive in such an environment.

Of course, surviving was all they could do.

To truly travel comfortably through the void sea, transportation tools like domain-crossing flying boats were indispensable.

However, small domain-crossing flying boats like this one could only wander near the Shenwu World's void sea; venturing deeper was still extremely dangerous.

"Clang! Clang!"

As Di Xiu was lost in his thoughts, the small flying boat beneath him suddenly shook violently, like a leaf boat caught in a storm, tossing and turning.

The "beep beep beep" of alarms instantly echoed throughout the flying boat.

The staff in the control room immediately sprang into action, activating one protective formation after another, balance formations, and gravity formations. The emergency spiritual power pool was quickly activated, and even some of the spiritual power supply inside the boat was temporarily reduced to maintain the operation of the defensive formations.

Urgent reports from the staff kept coming in.

Di Xiu quickly spread his energy, working with the defensive formations to shield the small flying boat, striving to maintain balance.

However, beside him, Wang Baosheng remained calm, issuing commands in an orderly manner, directing the staff in the control room to carry out a series of emergency operations.

This was just a small void sea storm, with only the aftermath sweeping nearby.

Whether in his past life or this one, he was long accustomed to such scenes, naturally not panicking. Besides, with his current strength at the Purple Mansion Realm, he couldn't help much; it was better to trust the staff on the flying boat.

After a full half-hour, everything finally calmed down.

Only then did Di Xiu retract his dispersed energy, and the energy-consuming defensive formations on the flying boat's surface were gradually shut down. The facilities inside the flying boat began to restore energy supply, and everything gradually returned to its original calm.

However, despite the timely response of the staff and Di Xiu, the surface of the small flying boat still showed many signs of damage.

Clearly, even the mere aftermath of a small void sea storm posed a challenge to this small domain-crossing flying boat.

Once they returned, it would likely require careful repair and maintenance to restore it to its original state.

Of course, this small void sea storm also swept over the Shenwu World, but the massive Shenwu World, with its inherent "multi-layered celestial force field shield," didn't even stir a ripple in the face of such a level of void sea storm.

"Senior Di Xiu, let's search for another month. If there's no result, we'll have to return," Wang Baosheng glanced at the energy reserves, skillfully activating the flying boat's self-check system, checking the control devices of the formations inside the boat. "Our energy reserves are limited, and there are too many dangers in the void sea. If we delay too long and the energy reserves run out, relying solely on the physical defenses of the domain-crossing flying boat won't withstand a void sea storm."

The void sea was fraught with dangers, and void storms were just one of them. There were also things like [Void Dust Streams], passing [Meteor Showers], migrating [Void Species], [Energy Shockwaves], and even [Dark Energy Tides], among many others... too many dangers.

Any one of them could pose a threat to a True Immortal Realm expert, and some could even be deadly.

In comparison, the Shenwu World was as safe as a greenhouse, and the human race of Shenwu was like "children in swaddling clothes," heavily protected.

"Rest assured, Young Master Baosheng," Di Xiu Immortal Monarch said confidently. "In this void sea near the Shenwu World, even if the flying boat explodes, I can ensure your safe return to the Shenwu World."

This was also why Wang Shouzhe had Di Xiu accompany Baosheng for exploration; a True Immortal's survival ability in the nearby void sea was still quite strong.

Wang Baosheng glanced at him upon hearing this, and said with a hint of melancholy, "Although our Wang's Clan can now imitate void ferries, we still lack the technology for the formation power core. We haven't cracked the manufacturing technology for the core framework materials either, so we can't replicate them and can only use secondary materials as substitutes. If this flying boat explodes, even if we complete this mission, our contribution points might end up in the negative..."

At the mention of contribution points, Di Xiu Immortal Monarch fell silent.

After a moment, he solemnly said, "Young Master Baosheng, you must take good care of this domain-crossing flying boat. If there's any problem, let me know in advance. I'll protect it even if I have to transform into my true form."

Nowadays, the treasures in the Wang's Clan treasury were increasing, and contribution points were becoming more valuable. However, exchanging spiritual stones for contribution points was not cost-effective; the main way to accumulate them was through completing tasks, which was not easy.

In fact, Di Xiu Immortal Monarch himself didn't have a great desire for resources, but he had already given a spiritual root to the Wang's Clan.

According to the Wang's Clan's tradition, that spiritual root was named [Wang Baoxiu] and was happily growing within the clan.

Di Xiu Immortal Monarch hoped that it could surpass the thirteenth level in the future, preferably reaching the fifteenth level!

For this, a massive amount of resources was indispensable.

Di Xiu Immortal Monarch wanted to earn more contribution points for Wang Baoxiu while he still could, to help accumulate a foundation, but he couldn't afford to mess up.

As they were speaking.

Suddenly, a band of energy light appeared diagonally ahead in the porthole's view.

Di Xiu and Wang Baosheng's attention was immediately drawn to it.

It was a band of energy light emitting a hazy five-colored halo.

It stretched across the void sea in a winding manner, from one end of the view to the other. It resembled a grand celestial river, its origins unknown, and its end a mystery. The vast energy currents surged and flowed within it, like a mighty river, endlessly majestic and mysterious.

Under the collision of energies, light constantly splashed out, appearing like flying spray from a distance. When illuminated by the scattered light in the void, it emitted a hazy five-colored halo, adding a touch of dreaminess and mystery.

Di Xiu was momentarily stunned by the grandeur of this scene, then suddenly realized, "This must be the legendary [Tianhe], right?"

Having lived for so many years, he had never seen it with his own eyes, but he knew that there were many [Tianhe] in the void sea.

The so-called "Tianhe" did not refer to a real river, but to energy flows in the void.

When scattered energy flows in the void coalesce into a stream for some reason, flowing in a specific direction, forming a relatively stable state and a relatively fixed path of energy turbulence, it becomes a [Tianhe].

This phenomenon is quite common in the void.

It is like blood vessels in the human body, spread throughout the void sea.

Generally speaking, the paths of Tianhe are relatively stable. They flow along specific routes, then meander back under the influence of energy fields, eventually returning to their original places after a long "journey."

Various energies, substances, life factors, and so on, drifting in the void sea, also flow to various places under the influence of the Tianhe, and even void creatures swim within them, completing migratory movements.

Of course, due to the extremely complex energy environment in the void, Tianhe often experiences branching, turning, even being swallowed or blocked, and is not always safe.

Wang Baosheng nodded slightly, "Indeed. This is the Tianhe closest to the Shenwu World, known as the [Yunxiao Tianhe]."

As early as ten thousand years ago, the Yunxiao Tianhe had been explored many times by the Holy Emperor of Shenwu and his exploration teams, making it relatively safe.

"Yunxiao Tianhe... Cloud steaming and misty, surging above the Nine Heavens, the name is quite fitting and sounds nice," Di Xiu asked curiously, "Did the Holy Emperor of Shenwu name it? Is that what it means?"

Wang Baosheng fell into a strange silence upon hearing this.

After a long while, seeing Di Xiu still looking at him, he slowly nodded, "Yes. But he probably didn't think it through that much. If I remember correctly, the Holy Emperor of Shenwu's name was something like Yunxiao... Oh, right, it was [Zhang Yunxiao]."

"......"

Di Xiu was momentarily speechless, unable to help but silently complain in his heart.

No wonder Young Master Baosheng was so full of self-love in everything he did; it turned out he had this trait in his previous life.

As they were chatting.

Suddenly.

Di Xiu's eyes brightened, pointing ahead, "Young Master Baosheng, there seems to be a meteorite in the [Lingxu] ahead. I wonder if it's the target we're looking for."

Wang Baosheng's eyes lit up, and he hurriedly steered the small flying boat towards the Lingxu.

The so-called [Lingxu] referred to the "energy shoals" formed by the slowing flow of the Tianhe.

The Lingxu before them was created by the influence of the Shenwu World's energy field.

The Yunxiao Tianhe passed near the Shenwu World, and due to the influence of the Shenwu World's energy field, the Tianhe widened, and the energy flow slowed. The void dust, void debris, energy substances, and so on, carried by the Tianhe gradually settled here. Over time, the shape of the Tianhe changed, forming an arc-shaped bay stream, and eventually forming a "shoal" of gathered energy substances, known as [Lingxu].

In simpler terms, it's like a rocky shoal at a river bend, where debris, driftwood, dead fish, and occasionally some valuable items accumulate.

The Lingxu here was like that, mostly filled with debris.

For a simple reason.

Throughout history, True Immortal and True Demon experts from the Immortal Emperor's lineage, Demon Emperor's lineage, Immortal Palace, and True Demon Hall, have regularly returned to clean up the Lingxu, picking up debris and hoping to find something valuable.

Even Immortal Emperor Mu Yun, after advancing to the True Immortal Realm, had visited many times. On his luckiest visit, he found a large meteorite full of spiritual stones, yielding a large number of spiritual stones of various grades, including three Immortal Spirit Stones.

Of course, this activity was traditionally only open to True Immortal Realm experts.

The Wang's Clan now had the qualifications to participate, but their rise was too recent, and they hadn't had the chance to join in yet.

Of course, the Lingxu was not just a benefit for the Shenwu World. If void beasts migrated along the Yunxiao Tianhe and decided to invade the Shenwu World, several True Immortal experts would have to join forces to repel them.

Such situations had occurred several times in history.

Soon, the small flying boat reached the edge of the Lingxu. Wang Baosheng sensed for a moment but found nothing. He then took out a recommendation order from the Officer Academy, but it also didn't react.

"This is just an ordinary debris meteorite," Wang Baosheng sighed, his tone somewhat regretful, "It's not the Nine Heavens Meteorite we're looking for."

"Huh? I sense a high proportion of iron ore in this meteorite," Di Xiu sensed, his eyes lighting up, "It even contains a lot of black iron ore... Young Master Baosheng, why not take it back? It should be worth quite a few contribution points."

"No," Wang Baosheng quickly said, "Such a large meteorite, if it falls into the Shenwu World, would cause significant damage. Even with your strength, controlling its descent speed would be difficult."

"What should we do then?" Di Xiu looked disappointed, "Are we just going to watch this wealth slip away?"

"There's no good solution at the moment," Wang Baosheng shook his head, "Once the research institute develops further, we can build smelting factories in the void sea. Then we can directly transport these meteorites rich in iron ore and black iron there for smelting. Once smelted into ingots, transportation will be much simpler."

"When will that be?" Di Xiu's old face wrinkled.

Suddenly, he thought of something, and his expression changed from disappointment to joy, "Watch me."

With that, he flickered and instantly teleported out of the flying boat, landing on the meteorite.

Immediately, green light radiated from him, and he transformed into his true form, becoming a massive celestial plant. His enormous and sturdy roots pierced into the meteorite with ease, separating and extracting the valuable black iron ore.

As for the ordinary iron ore, he didn't even glance at it.

"Senior Di Xiu, don't collect too much," Wang Baosheng reminded helplessly, "Our small flying boat is too small to carry much."

"Got it, got it~"

Di Xiu replied in a muffled voice, collecting about a thousand tons before reluctantly returning to the small flying boat.

The small flying boat immediately became much heavier.

Afterward, Di Xiu, still somewhat unwilling, continued to search the Lingxu, but found nothing valuable.

It was no wonder; the objects settled in the Lingxu were randomly carried by the Tianhe, and most were useless. Moreover, this Lingxu had been scoured countless times by the ancestors of the Yun's Clan and other human clans, making the probability of finding something valuable very low.

"Senior..."

Watching Di Xiu picking up debris like this, Wang Baosheng felt helpless, opening his mouth to say something, but ultimately giving up.

Forget it~ After all, he was a senior, let him be.

"Sigh, Young Master Baosheng, your luck is quite average," Di Xiu said, reminiscing about Wang Anye, his eyes full of longing, "Next time, I must come with Young Master Anye to pick up debris. Maybe he can find a Dao artifact in this Lingxu debris pile."

"......"

Wang Baosheng's expression froze, looking at Di Xiu with a hint of disbelief.

How did it come to this? Was it his fault that his luck was bad?

******

At the same time.

Also within the [Yunxiao Tianhe].

A luxurious flying palace, the [Moonlight Palace], was "swimming" in the Yunxiao Tianhe.

Under the influence of the surging energy currents in the Tianhe, the Moonlight Palace moved like a fish swimming downstream, needing only to control its direction, with almost no need for power, moving at an astonishing speed.

At this moment, although it hadn't been long since departing from the Shenwu World, the distance between the Moonlight Palace and the Shenwu World was already quite far.

This [Moonlight Palace] was the palace of the Han Yue Immortal Emperor's lineage.

Previously, it had been stationed near the Shenwu Heavenly Abyss.

Compared to the two giant flying palaces left from the "Great Refuge Era," namely the "Immortal Palace" and the "Immortal Court," its size was an order of magnitude smaller, but it was more agile and faster.

Back in the day, the Yun's Clan was the Holy Emperor's number one supporter. When the Holy Emperor was just rising, they followed him in excavating various relics, amassing wealth, and obtaining two Immortal Scriptures and three clan-protecting Immortal Artifacts. The Moonlight Palace was also acquired by the Yun's Clan ancestors, along with the Holy Emperor, from a relic in the void sea called the [Sun and Moon Divine Sect Immortal Ruins].

For this reason, the Yun's Clan was chosen by the Holy Emperor to be the executor of the seed preservation plan.

Later, during the Great Refuge Era, the Yun's Clan ancestors bore the heavy responsibility of safeguarding the bloodline foundation of the Shenwu human race. During those tens of thousands of years of drifting and refuge in the void sea, even when they discovered relics, they dared not explore deeply, fearing it would bring disaster to the human race.

Even after the establishment of the Han Yue Immortal Dynasty and the resurgence of human civilization, the Yun's Clan ancestors dared not explore those relics again, as the Shenwu human race was too fragile at that time to afford the loss of any True Immortal Realm expert.

But now, the situation had changed.

The number of True Immortal Realm experts in the Shenwu World was increasing, and there were people to take on the burden of reviving Shenwu. Immortal Emperor Mu Yun, Yun Tiange, felt that her personal survival or demise no longer affected the fundamental operation of the Shenwu World. Therefore, she decided to lead a group to explore the footsteps of their ancestors.

Although this move required taking risks, if successful, it could further enhance the foundation of the Yun's Clan and the Shenwu human race.

Compared to a small domain-crossing flying boat, the Moonlight Palace, as a private palace, was much more robust in terms of manufacturing materials and defense level. Even in the turbulent energy of the Tianhe, it moved like a fish in water, without any burden.

From the railing of the Moonlight Palace, the grandeur of the Tianhe could be seen.

From a distance, the Yunxiao Tianhe looked like a beautiful light band, but being within it revealed the vastness of the Tianhe. The large Moonlight Palace, within it, was like a small fish in a great river.

"Helan," at the edge of the palace, Immortal Emperor Mu Yun, dressed in a heroic battle robe, was lazily leaning against the railing, her gaze dreamy as she looked at the surrounding radiant Tianhe, "Do you know why I chose you to accompany me?"

On this journey, she brought many people, including many outstanding members of the Yun's Clan.

The second princess of the Han Yue Immortal Dynasty, [Princess Helan], was also summoned by Immortal Emperor Mu Yun and was currently attending to her side.

Princess Helan had a standard oval face, bright eyes, and a gentle and serene temperament. Even though she was dressed in a goose-yellow outfit to prepare for possible battles, with armor over it, exuding a strong presence, she still exuded an inexplicable gentleness.

Gentle, yet not weak, that was her.

She seemed unremarkable, not as famous as Princess Suiyun, nor as talked about as the Fourth Princess of Chunnan.

Yet she had always been stationed at Immortal Base No. 2, bordering the Bone Saw Demon God's territory, working diligently and in perfect harmony with the base's commander, never making a mistake, and was very steady by nature.

"Ancestor," upon hearing Immortal Emperor Mu Yun's words, Princess Helan smiled gently, her tone very respectful, "As a princess of the Immortal Dynasty, I should dedicate everything to the dynasty, and I am willing to accompany the ancestor and chat."

"You~ have such a sweet mouth," Immortal Emperor Mu Yun chuckled, "Actually, all four princesses of your generation are excellent. If there's a chance for all of you to become True Immortals, it would be the greatest fortune for our Yun's Clan. Now that Suiyun has an Immortal Scripture, and you have reached the late Divine Realm."

"I brought you here to make a two-pronged preparation. If I unfortunately fall outside, you will have to take on the responsibility of inheriting the Han Yue Immortal Scripture and my legacy."

"Ancestor!!" Princess Helan's heart skipped a beat upon hearing this, her face instantly changing, "Impossible! You are a powerful presence in the mid-True Immortal Realm, how could you fall!?"

"In the vast void sea, dangers are countless," Immortal Emperor Mu Yun waved her hand, signaling her to calm down, with a look of indifference to life and death, "I am out here to pursue the Holy Path, how could it be smooth sailing? To prevent any unforeseen events, leaving a backup plan is necessary. Do you know where our Shenwu World is located in the void sea?"

Upon hearing this, Princess Helan's face gradually calmed down, honestly shaking her head, "Helan doesn't know, please enlighten me, ancestor."

"On the southeastern side of the Domain of Destruction," Immortal Emperor Mu Yun looked at the surrounding turbulent energy light, her gaze seemingly penetrating the Tianhe to reach an unknown place, "Following this Yunxiao Tianhe, within ten years, we can reach the vicinity of the Domain of Destruction."

"???" Princess Helan looked puzzled, as if she had heard something strange, "Isn't the Domain of Destruction accessed through the [Void Tunnel] on the Immortal Palace's side? I heard it is near the Holy Domain."

"Hehe, do you know how big the Domain of Destruction is?" Immortal Emperor Mu Yun poked her forehead, her smile carrying a hint of teasing, "The direction transmitted through the Void Tunnel should be the other end of the Domain of Destruction—the northwest side. Our Shenwu World is actually on the southeastern edge of the Domain of Destruction, with almost an entire Domain of Destruction in between."

"According to our Yun's Clan ancestors' records, when His Majesty the Holy Emperor led us to explore the Domain of Destruction, he unlocked a small part of a small part of its secrets. During the war between the Immortal Alliance and the Crystal Ancient Clan, a large void tunnel was secretly built, directly connecting to our Shenwu World."

"At that time, our Shenwu World originally belonged to the Immortal Alliance's territory, but was later captured by the Crystal Ancient Clan, effectively becoming the Crystal Ancient Clan's rear area."

"It was through this large void tunnel that the high-levels of the Immortal Alliance attacked the rear of the Crystal Ancient Clan, turning the tide of the war."

Princess Helan suddenly realized, "So that's how it is. I was wondering why we also have the Domain of Destruction here. Does Master Wang Shouzhe know about this intelligence?"

"Uh... of course he knows," Immortal Emperor Mu Yun said, slightly embarrassed, "When we first discovered the large void tunnel, I discussed it with Shouzhe. This isn't a secret of our Yun's Clan; the Immortal Sovereign's lineage also has records. We work together sincerely, why would we hide such intelligence?"

Seeing her expression, Princess Helan knew there was something fishy, and couldn't help but chuckle, changing the topic by pointing excitedly at something not far from the Moonlight Palace, "Ancestor, there's a fish in the Tianhe... such a long fish, it looks like a dragon~~"

"Huh? It's a Tianhe Silver Belt Fish," Immortal Emperor Mu Yun's eyes glanced over, also showing interest, "Our Yun's Clan ancestors' notes mention that this Tianhe Silver Belt Fish can grow up to the eleventh level. They live almost their entire lives in the Tianhe, and are delicious and nourishing. I heard Shouzhe loves fish, I'll catch one for him to freeze~~~"

With that, she made a grabbing motion in the void.

A giant energy hand broke through the void, grabbing the ninth-level Tianhe Silver Belt Fish.

Despite the Silver Belt Fish's desperate struggle, it couldn't resist Immortal Emperor Mu Yun's grasp and was forcibly captured into the Moonlight Palace.

"Hehe, I'll help the ancestor process it; this is a good thing to nourish Master Wang Shouzhe," Princess Helan said with a smile, stepping forward to assist.

"Uh..."

Immortal Emperor Mu Yun realized her slip of the tongue, and blushed slightly in front of the younger generation.

******

In the Shenwu World, everyone was busy with their respective goals. Meanwhile, in the Holy Domain, Baiyu Chao Lu and her party, after a long journey, finally reached the territory of the Primordial Dao Palace.

This was a large floating island called [Immortal Path Island].

As one of the gateways to the Primordial Dao Palace, it had numerous cities and facilities, and its area was larger than the entire Longzuo Commandery, with a population of tens of millions of [mortals]. Of course, here, the so-called mortals had more Lingtai Realm cultivators than Qi Refining Realm ones.

Just after disembarking from the giant cargo cloud boat and entering the port, Baiyu Chao Lu and her party felt the bustling atmosphere.

"Newspapers for sale, newspapers for sale~~"

Amidst the bustling crowd, young people dressed similarly were weaving through, using their flight techniques to sell newspapers, holding up copies and shouting.

"Freshly printed Primordial Monthly, the fourteenth-level peak island guardian immortal beast [Nine Heavens Immortal Sparrow] on Tianxuan Sacred Island failed its third attempt to become a Sacred Sparrow, deeply affected and ran away from home."

"The internal youth competition on Leaving Fire Sacred Island has concluded, and Fire Cloud Little Immortal Sovereign has once again won the crown."

"On [Wanhua Sacred Island], a senior brother confessed to a senior sister from [Starfall Sacred Island], but the senior sister said she already had someone in her heart, sparking a love triangle. The senior brother has publicly stated that he will pursue a strategy of not giving up, not losing hope, and not retreating, with our newspaper continuing to follow up on the story..."

With the overwhelming shouting and explosive content, even though the newspapers were expensive, costing one Immortal Crystal each, they still sold very well.

Even Princess Baiyu Chao Lu bought a copy and read it with great interest.

It turned out that there were so many interesting things in the Primordial Dao Palace.

However, gossip could wait; business came first.

She politely approached an Immortal Monarch in white robes, inquiring about the location of the Heavenly Peng Sacred Island, expressing her desire to pay a visit to Yunpeng Holy Sovereign.

Having the opportunity to get close to the Holy Sovereign, Baiyu Chao Lu was a little excited too~

However, just as she asked her question, a thunderclap resounded in the sky.

Two figures tore through space, appearing in the sky one after the other.

These two figures, one male and one female, exuded an incredibly terrifying aura. As one chased and the other fled, the sky was filled with wind and clouds, as if a monstrous storm had been stirred."Yunpeng, you old scoundrel! If you have the guts, don't rely on your Tianpeng teleportation to escape. Watch how I, your auntie, cut you into seventy-two pieces!" The woman chasing behind shouted in anger, clearly furious.

"Jinyu, my dear sister." The Yunpeng Holy Sovereign, fleeing ahead, moved so fast he was almost a blur, his voice filled with grievance, "Everyone knows about you and Yunhai's little affair. What does it have to do with me that it got reported?"

Baiyu Chao Lu witnessed this scene, her brow twitching, a bad feeling rising sharply in her heart.

No way, no way...

"Miss, who did you say you were looking for? Yunpeng Holy Sovereign?" The white-robed celestial being glanced at her with a strange look and asked, "What's your relationship with him? Why are you looking for him? Recently, Yunpeng Holy Sovereign has offended quite a few people."

Baiyu Chao Lu's body shuddered, and she quickly put on a gritted-teeth expression, saying, "Yunpeng Holy Sovereign and I are sworn enemies. I'm here to cause him trouble."

Immediately, she silently praised her own quick thinking.

When out and about, you have to adapt to the situation to get by smoothly.

But just as she finished speaking.

A handsome young man carrying a large stack of newspapers appeared behind her.

"Senior Brother Bai Tao, this Winged woman is so indignant in seeking trouble with our master. Could she be an estranged offspring of our master? Tsk tsk, who would have thought our master had such a romantic past..."

The white-robed celestial being's eyes lit up, his face full of admiration: "Junior Brother Baoguang, you are indeed exceptionally perceptive, seeing the oddity at a glance. We have our headline for the next issue of the newspaper. Miss, what's your name? Is our unknown mistress also from the Winged People?"

The two of them, with just a glance and a word, had already concocted a story, even having ideas on where to find "evidence."

Baiyu Chao Lu was left utterly bewildered.

Who am I, where am I? Why is the outside world so treacherous?

...
