The top metaphysical expert Sheng Wanwan died after being struck by her master's lightning tribulation. She transmigrated into the body of a baby, becoming the legitimate daughter of the Zhengu...
At this moment, Luanfeng spoke up: "Princess, Wanwan is indeed innocent. She only wanted to repay Zhanyin for saving her life and had no malicious intent."
Although Luanfeng didn't know why Chu Wanwan was here, she trusted Zhan Yin and therefore considered Chu Wanwan one of her own, and should protect her.
Lingyue snorted coldly, "Who knows if you're in cahoots? This woman can't be kept alive."
As she spoke, Lingyue gave a wink to the maids beside her, who understood and immediately stepped forward to grab Chu Wanwan.
Lingyue wanted to take advantage of the fact that Zhanyin hadn't fallen for this woman yet and strike first. Otherwise, dealing with Luanfeng alone would be exhausting enough, and adding a vixen maid would make it even more difficult.
Seeing the maids surrounding her, Chu Wanwan's heart tightened, and she quickly took a few steps back. Seeing this, Luanfeng struggled to her feet, trying to protect Chu Wanwan.
“Princess, you can’t be so unreasonable. Wanwan has done nothing wrong. If you continue to act recklessly, Zhan Yin will not let this go when he returns.” Luan Feng’s face was pale, but her eyes were full of determination.
Lingyue, however, was not afraid at all and sneered, "Hmph, when Brother Ayin comes back, I will have my own way of dealing with it. This woman must be eliminated today."
Just as the maids were about to seize Chu Wanwan, a powerful divine force suddenly struck, knocking the maids to the ground. As everyone was astonished, they saw Zhan Yin standing angrily at the door.
"Lingyue, you've gone too far!" Zhan Yin glared at Lingyue, his eyes filled with disappointment.
When Lingyue saw Zhan Yin, she panicked, but still tried to remain calm and said, "Brother Yin, this woman has ulterior motives. I'm doing this for your own good."
Zhan Yin walked to Chu Wanwan's side, shielding her behind him, and said in a deep voice, "Wanwan is my maid. If you dare to touch her again, don't blame me for disregarding our past relationship."
Lingyue's eyes widened, tears welling up in them: "Brother Ayin, how could you treat me like this for a maid? I'm the one you should care about."
Zhan Yin shook his head and said, "Ling Yue, your actions have completely disappointed me. My heart belongs only to Luan Feng, and I will never marry you. For your father's sake, I will not pursue what you did today!"
But if it happens again, I will not let it go easily!
After saying that, Zhan Yin turned to look at Luan Feng and Chu Wanwan and said gently, "Let's go."
Luanfeng nodded and, supported by Zhanyin, left the room with Chu Wanwan. Lingyue watched their departing figures, trembling with anger.
"Brother Ayin, you will definitely regret this!" Lingyue said through gritted teeth.
The God Emperor did not return to Lingyue's room. He knew his daughter's temper; if he went, she would inevitably resort to crying, making a scene, and threatening suicide to force him to grant her a marriage.
But Zhan Yin is right. If they are forcibly tied together, Zhan Yin doesn't like Yue'er, and the two will become a resentful couple. In that case, he will be caught between Zhan Yin, whom he has adopted and treats like his own son, and his only daughter. He will be in an even more difficult position.
So it's better to have a short pain than a long one. Since his daughter couldn't bear to part with him, he, as her father, should let her go!
With this in mind, he went to the Goddess and asked her to help his beloved daughter choose a husband!
"My lord, Yue'er loves Zhan Yin. Even if she chooses a consort, she may not be able to let go of it. Perhaps we should give her some more time; maybe she will gradually come to her senses." The Empress frowned slightly, speaking with concern.
The God Emperor sighed: "How could I not know? I even promised Zhan Yin that if he was willing to marry Yue'er, I would grant him the position of God Emperor! But Zhan Yin's attitude is firm! If Yue'er continues to pester me like this, it will only cause her more pain."
Moreover, Zhan Yin and the female healer Luan Feng are in love; it would be unfair for us to forcibly separate them.”
After a moment's thought, the Empress nodded: "Alright, let's select a few suitable candidates and let Yue'er take a look. Maybe that will divert her attention."
Meanwhile, Zhan Yin led Luan Feng and Chu Wanwan back to Kunpeng Palace.
After applying the medicine to Luanfeng, Chu Wanwan helped Luanfeng sit down in a chair.
"Luan'er, I'm sorry. I was on patrol today and didn't return on time, making you suffer!"
Zhan Yin looked guilty!
"It's alright, Zhan Yin. Even if you don't come back, I'll only be injured at most. The God Emperor never intended to kill me. These wounds look gruesome, but they haven't actually damaged my bones. I think the God Emperor gave me instructions in secret."
'Although the God Emperor loves his daughter dearly, he can hardly be considered a tyrant!'
"Hmm! Luan'er, I've thought about it. For your safety, there are only two ways. First, you go back to Qingluan Mountain to recover from your injuries, and I will prepare the betrothal gifts as soon as possible and go to your home to propose marriage!"
Secondly, you will stay in Kunpeng Palace. I will arrange for divine soldiers to guard this place, and no one will be allowed to enter without my order!
"Luan'er, both of these methods will keep you safe. Do you want to go back to Qingluan Mountain, or stay here with me?"
Zhan Yin looked at Luan Feng expectantly, awaiting her answer. Luan Feng lowered her head slightly, pondered for a moment, then raised her head, looking at Zhan Yin with a firm gaze.
"Zhan Yin, I don't want to go back to Qingluan Mountain. I want to stay by your side and face everything with you. I believe that as long as we are together, no difficulty can defeat us," Luan Feng said gently.
Zhan Yin felt a warmth in his heart and held Luan Feng's hand tightly. "Alright, Luan'er, then you can stay in Kunpeng Palace. I will definitely protect you and not let anyone hurt you again."
Watching their affectionate display, Chu Wanwan missed Si Mingye even more...
"By the way, how come Miss Chu is here with you?" Luanfeng asked Chu Wanwan with a puzzled look.
"I was able to rush over to save you this time thanks to Miss Chu! It was Miss Chu who discovered Lingyue's conspiracy and came to tell me! These past few days, it was also Miss Chu who led people to guard outside your courtyard to protect your safety."
Zhan Yin bowed gratefully to Chu Wanwan, saying, "Miss Chu, I will remember this kindness. If you ever need anything in the future, please don't hesitate to ask, and I will do my best to help."
Chu Wanwan quickly returned the greeting and said softly, "General, you flatter me. I only did what I should do. Seeing the deep affection between you and Miss Luanfeng, I am very moved. I only hope that you can be happy forever."
Luanfeng looked at Chu Wanwan with curiosity in her heart: "Miss Chu, the Divine Palace is heavily guarded, how did you get into the Divine Palace?"
"Me? I rely on this!"
As Chu Wanwan spoke, she drew invisibility and concealment talismans for herself, and in an instant, Chu Wanwan's figure disappeared from the room.
Where did she go?
Luanfeng asked in confusion.
"She's still there! She's just concealed her form, but I can still sense her presence!" Zhan Yin said, pointing to the spot where Chu Wanwan had disappeared.
Upon hearing this, Chu Wanwan smiled and wiped away the invisibility talisman, and her figure reappeared in the same spot.
"What kind of divine technique is this? It's so amazing! How could I, a High God Realm cultivator, not be able to detect your presence?"
"These are called invisibility talismans and concealment talismans, which can evade the detection of experts at the Upper God Realm. However, it's obvious that Lord War's cultivation is far beyond the Upper God Realm!"
As she spoke, Chu Wanwan took out a stack of talismans from her bosom and handed them to Luanfeng. "Take these; they might save your life in a critical moment!"
