Nine Lives, Nine Worlds of Tribulation

Memories are like ever-blooming stone flowers, yet only the self believes them to be eternal. Ultimately, what they bring is the ruthlessness of reincarnation; perhaps no one will wait this time.

Chapter 5 A Silence Like Thunder

Hua Baixian's eyes lit up, and she immediately exclaimed excitedly, "Really?! Sister, you're not lying to me?"

Seeing that Hua Baixian was willing to call her, Hua Yuxian breathed a sigh of relief and nodded with a smile, "Let's go, let's go to Xuantian Pavilion and try to help him."

Seeing Hua Baixian leave with Hua Yuxian, Hua Xi and Hua Rong, who were kneeling on the ground, exchanged a gloomy glance, their anger evident in their eyes.

Tianxuan Pavilion

A middle-aged man in a long golden robe held a golden brush in his powerful hand. After writing the character "默" (silent) on the paper, he raised his sharp eyebrows and nodded in satisfaction. "Those who achieve great things are neither arrogant nor impatient, neither overbearing nor humble, their silence is as powerful as thunder!"

"Father, just say what you want to say. Don't try to talk to me in riddles, I can't understand!" Sitting to one side, a young girl named Qian Mo, dressed in black men's clothing, was as handsome as a man, yet possessed stunning beauty. She pouted and said rather smugly.

Tianxuan put down his pen, wrinkled his nose, and looked at him with exasperation. "You little brat, you're getting more and more outrageous. I didn't even scold you for what happened in the forbidden area. I made you stand in the corner to reflect on your actions, and you still sneaked out to play with those maids. Now I've put you here to listen to my sermon, and you're not paying attention either. You, you..."

"Hmph, who told you to have so many secrets and not tell me? Don't you know I'm curious?" Qianmo rolled her eyes and directly blamed her "curiosity".

"You little brat—" Tianxuan wanted to scold her a bit more, but stopped himself as soon as he opened his mouth. Qianmo's expression also changed, and she quickly straightened up and sat properly.

At this moment, the door opened naturally, and then Tianyi Zunhuang walked in with a gloomy expression.

"Master," Qianmo said respectfully as he rose and bowed.

Tianyi hummed in agreement and sat silently to the side. Seeing this, Qianmo didn't dare to speak again and obediently sat down as well.

Subsequently, one of the Four Realms Sovereigns, the God of Heavenly Enlightenment, and the only female God of Healing, the God of Heavenly Rain, arrived.

As soon as he entered, the honest-looking Tianqi couldn't help but start talking, "What's wrong, Brother Tianxuan? You want to gamble again? Come on, I'll play with you!"

Before Tianxuan could speak, Tianyu, who was standing to the side, saw Qianmo and her eyes lit up immediately. "Oh my, isn't this little Momo?"

As she spoke, she pushed aside Tianyi, who was sitting next to Qianmo, saying, "Get out of the way, get out of the way. Aren't you ashamed to sit next to Xiaomo, being so ugly?"

Qianmo was extremely embarrassed. If anyone else said his master was slovenly and ugly, he would fight them for hundreds of rounds with a brick. But this Heavenly Rain Emperor was the only one who said that.

I can't mess with you! I can heal and poison you, I'll kill you!

Tianyu thought that Tianyi Zunhuang would say something, but to her surprise, he didn't say anything. He just sat quietly in the corner, looking like he had done something wrong, and seemed absent-minded.

Qianmo couldn't help but exclaim in amazement: Could this be what Father Emperor meant by "silence as thunder"?!

Seeing this, everyone looked at each other in bewilderment, their gaze finally settling on Emperor Tianxuan, who shook his head helplessly, indicating that he knew nothing about it.

Afterwards, the eight divine generals (Tianluo, Eyi, Ranyuan, Xuanqing'er, Ruixin, Wenyan, Weisi, and Longhe) and Hua Yuxian, the deputy general in charge of the War God Pavilion, led Hua Baixian to Tianxuan Pavilion one by one.

Looking at Hua Baixian, Tianxuan was quite surprised, "I didn't expect that this generation of flower fairies would be so young."

Upon hearing this, everyone looked at Hua Baixian, with Qianmo staring at her like a curious child.

Hua Baixian blushed slightly when she saw herself sitting next to a stunningly beautiful emperor, Qian Mo, whose gender was unknown but whose handsome appearance was beyond description, staring at her.

Seeing that Hua Baixian had a mature appearance but innocent eyes, Qianmo became very interested and asked directly, "This fairy sister, are you married?"

Upon seeing this, Tianxuan hurriedly coughed and said, "Qianmo, the Four Domains Sovereign and the Eight Divine Emperors have important matters to discuss. Please excuse us for now."

Qianmo glanced at Tianxuan, and seeing his solemn and serious expression, nodded respectfully and said, "Yes, Father."

After saying that, he obediently left.

Upon seeing this, Tianxuan immediately regretted it. How could this troublesome girl have left so easily!

Qianmo was naturally unwilling to leave, so she decided to find something to do—

“Master seems distracted and absent-minded. Judging from his personality, he must be troubled by something.” Qianmo stroked his chin and pondered for a moment. “I haven’t seen him and Master Tianyu arguing lately either. Could it be that he’s coveting the divine artifact but can’t have it and is struggling with that?”

After thinking it over, Qianmo made a decision—

"Never mind, let's just go to the Heavenly Mystery Pavilion and maybe we'll find out."

Flying through the void to the Heavenly Mystery Pavilion, Qianmo was so frightened by the sight of blood covering the ground that it was a stark and desolate sight!

"This, this..." Qianmo was so frightened that she couldn't speak. She swallowed hard and it took her a long time to come to her senses.

Mustering his courage, he lifted his leg and walked into the Heavenly Mystery Pavilion.

Unlike usual, the Heavenly Mystery Pavilion was bitterly cold, and the surrounding walls were covered with a layer of frost.

"Good heavens, what is Master doing? Has he stopped collecting divine weapons and started researching formations?" Qianmo muttered to himself.

Just as she was about to succumb to the chill, she was suddenly drawn to the frozen figure placed in the main hall—

His eyes were gentle and tender, his eyelashes long and tightly closed, his expression serene, exuding the air of a noble king. His handsome features were flawless; a single glance was enough to evoke a feeling of tenderness and affection in one's heart.

"You're so beautiful!" Looking at Gu Liyan, who was frozen in ice, Qian Mo's heart suddenly stirred, and a wicked smile suddenly appeared. "You almost surpassed me!"

—If you wake up, I will definitely want you to be my husband!
