C146 (2/2)
Little Pei swam leisurely through the clouds, and the closer he got to the Immortal World, the smaller he became.
Grandfather and Grandmother were present as well as Uncle. Dragon Queen took him into his embrace and leisurely accepted the praises and congratulations from the other immortals.
Their Dragon Clan had not had a dragon-shaped offspring for more than ten thousand years, so Little Pei, this little Golden Dragon, had already become famous in the nine heavens.
But today, they had gathered together not to admire Little Pei's appearance, but rather to discuss his birth in the mortal realm. As well as Ling Chaofeng, more and more mortals were being drawn in to reveal the secrets of heaven. This was not a good thing.
Logically speaking, even if Little Pei was born in the mortal world, Ling Chaofeng and Mu Xiaowan should not have been able to see it, let alone the other people at that time, in addition to the explanation Mu Xiaowan gave to her close friends, as well as the strange scene in the flood that the villagers of Baisha County saw, all of these violated the laws of heaven.
The result of their discussion was to erase the memories of the relevant mortals, make them forget everything that had happened, and no longer allow Little Pei to appear in the mortal world as a Golden Dragon.
Dragon Queen said faintly: ”At that time, Chaofeng brought you and the others down, and hurt mortals by accident. You guys said that the taboo in Heaven Realm was to forcefully change the fate of mortals, so you forced Chaofeng to bear the guilt, and those commoners all died tragically. Why are they going to forcibly change their memories now? ”
The deities were silent for a moment, then said: ”The Dragon Queen bestowed a magical artifact on Mu Xiaowan, transferring the sins of the ninth life to her, aren't you also interfering with the matters of mortals?”
Dragon Queen laughed: ”Didn't I receive my retribution?”
The various immortals were all embarrassed and did not have any retort. After discussing for a long time, in the end, they still hoped that Dragon Queen would warn them not to show themselves to Mu Xiaowan. Otherwise, it would be very difficult for them too.
The Chaofeng was full of crimes. If this carried on, he would be demoted to a mortal.
However, someone's words had also aroused the curiosity of all the deities, ”Where did Mu Xiaowan come from? How could she endure so many things? If it were any ordinary person, they would have already been annihilated. Everyone, is it possible to calculate that?”
Dragon Queen hugged the fat grandson in his arms and laughed: ”She's just an ordinary mortal. If you don't believe me, why don't you go to Xi Tian and ask her?”
Not long after, Little Pei leisurely swam back and told his father about the discussions of the various immortals, then angrily said, ”Why are they so free? There are so many monsters in the world that don't want to surrender, and there are demons that don't want to exterminate the devil way. They just want to break up their parents.”
Ling Chaofeng warned his son not to get into conflict with those Supreme Immortals. Those who relied on their cultivation to soar into the skies were extremely jealous that their Dragon Clan was born to be like an immortal. Only the west sky was truly clear.
Little Pei was disdainful, so Ling Chaofeng ordered him to return.
Standing on top of the Announcement Hall, he suddenly felt the aura of an emperor. Turning around, he saw a group of palace servants carrying lanterns, hurriedly luring the Emperor from the Culture Hall to the Qingming Pavilion.
It must be some urgent matter that had spread to the palace. It was not easy to be an emperor.
After tormenting for two hours, the emperor finally returned to the Culture Hall. He walked out of the Qingming Pavilion's hall door, raised his eyes and looked at the roof of the Announcement Hall, just in time to meet Ling Chaofeng's gaze.
Xiang Run was actually unable to see anything, but in his heart, he had always felt that it was very strange.
He didn't think that he was the one being paranoid or that the Xiaowan would seek revenge on him, but something had already entrenched itself in his heart, making him unhappy.
He walked towards the Culture Hall, and the late autumn wind was somewhat bone-piercing. He asked when it was snowing early last year, listening to the chatter of the palace people, then thought about the disaster that happened at the Baisha County as well as the legends regarding it.
Siyan was waiting for the Emperor to return. After they laid back down, Xiang Run asked, ”Yan'er, should we not kill Ling Chaofeng?”
”Why did the emperor think of this? Is it the Xiaowan?” The Queen asked worriedly, ”Did the Xiaowan do anything?”
The Emperor shook his head, ”It's not that my heart is not as strong as my fist, but it's just that I can't let go of the guilt. I always feel that I should do something. ”
”For whom?”
”I don't know, I really don't know.”
Whether it was the emperor's hesitation, or the worries and warnings of the Eastern Gods, none of the Xiaowan knew.
The current her was content with being able to live the life before her. She had personally turned Ling Chaofeng's corpse into ashes, so she clearly understood that her husband had truly died. Thus, to be able to be together with her husband, regardless if he was a ghost or a god, or an ethereal soul, as long as they could be together, everything was fine.
It was as if she had returned to the tavern and would wake up early every day to work hard, occasionally telling jokes to the Palace Maid servants by her side, or go to the Culture Hall to help the Empress take care of the Little Princess. Every ten days, he would leave the palace and bring Little Pei to various restaurants in the capital to buy delicious food for his son, accompanying him for one day and one night.
What was left was her and Hubby's meeting every night before going to bed. Sleeping in the warmth of his body was the happiest thing that Xiaowan cherished the most.
In the blink of an eye, November arrived.
Xiaowan followed the others as they passed by the Announcement Hall. When she looked at the stone statue from afar, she saw that there was a thin layer of snow on the statue's head.
