I am of divine and immortal blood. I was born with exceptional talent and have attracted the attention of the entire celestial realm.

Because I am not of pure divine blood, my name is not on the Temple of Divine Names, and therefore I am classified as an immortal.

However, people still pay attention to me.

Until Cangyan and Canglan were born.

The celestial realm is preparing to elect a Heavenly Emperor, and they want Cang Yan, who was born not long ago, to be the Heavenly Emperor.

On what grounds?

However, Cang Yan had no interest in becoming the Heavenly Emperor, nor did he have the ambition to unify the Three Realms.

The matter of electing a Heavenly Emperor was thus temporarily put aside.

Although I was resentful, I got along well with the brother and sister, so my jealousy disappeared.

Later, Cang Yan and I were sent to the human realm to capture the demons that were causing havoc there.

A rabbit demon fell into the trap I set.

Aside from her demonic and monster-like aura, she exuded no bloodlust; she had never killed anyone.

Cang Yan seems quite interested in her.

After that, she stayed with us; to be precise, she stayed by Cang Yan's side.

The three of us worked together to subdue demons and monsters in the human realm.

I don't know when I fell in love with her, maybe it was when we first met, or maybe it was during our five hundred years together.

When I realized my feelings for her, she was already with Cang Yan.

We will eventually return to the heavens.

Cang Yan decided to take her to the Heavenly Realm, and I thought so too. I remembered the magic artifact, the Demon-Capturing Jade Bottle. The process might be a bit uncomfortable, but we wouldn't be discovered.

To prevent her from suffering, Cang Yan expended half of his divine power to suppress the demonic power within her body, allowing her to enter the Heavenly Realm as a newly ascended Immortal Lord.

Their relationship grew stronger, and seeing them so in love made me feel increasingly uneasy.

I started to feel that everyone's attention was on Cang Yan.

The resentment I once felt surged up.

Yes, I'm jealous of him.

They were jealous that he was the most talented and strongest among the gods, and that he always easily gained the attention of others.

But I hid it well; no one could tell that I was resentful.

One day, Tian Tian suddenly came to me with a defense map and asked me to do her a favor.

I asked her why she did that, but she didn't explain why.

She questioned me about whether I was willing to help her.

In the end, I helped her.

I witnessed Cang Yan become possessed by a demon for her.

The gods originally intended to imprison him.

But he wanted to go to the underworld, so I helped him.

Perhaps that's just my personal opinion, but once he goes to the underworld, he will become a demon completely, and no one will be able to save him.

But after he left, I discovered that the defense map was gone.

I reported this matter to several gods and immortals in the Heavenly Palace.

They sent me and Sang Shiyao to the Underworld to monitor Cang Yan and Mu Yexuan, just to prevent chaos in the Underworld from affecting the human world.

Sang Shiyao is a celestial lord who manages the herbs of the celestial realm. When Cang Yan fell into demonic possession, she and other celestial lords took care of him and developed feelings for him.

So, to prevent her from acting on her emotions, she was sent to Mu Yexuan's side, and I was sent to Cang Yan's side.

I think Lord Xuanming should know my thoughts. Although I have a good relationship with Cangyan, I am indifferent and distant towards him.

I know I will not show favoritism towards Cang Yan.

I changed my identity and went to the underworld, disguised myself as a demon, approached Cang Yan who had become Ming Cang, and became the palace master by his side.

I always thought he never realized my true identity.

Until I met Tian Tian again, I saw her chained up by Cang Yan, and I thought she must be being tortured by Cang Yan.

If it weren't for her back then, the Heavenly Realm might have suffered heavy losses in the war between Heaven and the Underworld.

But Cangyan doesn't know about this, and I didn't intend to tell him.

But Tian Tian suddenly wanted to tell Cang Yan the truth. Because of my selfishness, I didn't agree and pretended not to know her.

I wanted to take her away, so I took out the jade bottle.

Immortal power is different from divine power. Cang Yan only needs to give her half of the divine power, but I need to give her all of the immortal power in order to suppress her demonic power.

But if I do that, I have no ability to take her to the heavens.

Therefore, the only solution I can think of is to use that demon-capturing jade bottle. I will do my best to ensure her life is not in danger.

I think even if she resents me, as long as I can take her away, I'll have plenty of opportunities.

Even if I don't have the chance, I don't want her and Cang Yan to get back together.

It wasn't until Cang Yan stopped me when I was about to take her away that I realized that Cang Yan had recognized me from the very beginning.

He knew that the Heavenly Realm had sent me only to monitor him and had no other intentions, so he never exposed me.

I was resentful, and knowing the punishment the Temple of Divine Names had in store for him, I deliberately called out his name.

To my surprise, Tian Tian actually drew the lightning from Cang Yan's body into her own.

She loved him so much.

I had no choice but to give up on taking her away and return to the Heavenly Realm.

After the civil war in the Underworld, I learned that the reason Cang Yan was chosen as the Heavenly Emperor was because the Three Realms Defense Map only recognized him.

This is something I cannot change.

I gave up on competing with him; all I wanted to know was where Tian Tian was.

I know there's no possibility between us, but I still want to tell her how I feel, so I don't have any regrets.

However, Cangyan told me that Tian Tian was dead.

I was shocked and couldn't accept it. I thought he must be lying to me. Later, Sang Shiyao told me that she had watched Mu Tiantian destroy her demon core and turn her true body into ashes.

I have no choice but to accept reality.

I was in a daze, and perhaps Lord Xuanming couldn't bear to see me like this, so he sent me to the human realm to search for Mu Yexuan.

Rumors circulate in the human realm that an elder from a cultivation sect and her disciple possess extraordinary strength, and no demon dares to act recklessly wherever they go.

This saved me some trouble.

After the mission was completed, I returned to the back mountain of my Heavenly Palace.

The mountain is covered with fairy fruits.

In a daze, I seemed to see that familiar smiling face, holding a few pink fruits and a bag of seeds, smiling at me with a radiant smile, "Ji Ling, these are the Immortal Spirit Fruit seeds I just developed, I'm giving them to you."

"Let me give you a few to try first. If you like them, then plant them. They can be used in medicine or food, and they are very helpful in enhancing your immortal power."

"I planted a hill for Ayan, and I planted a hill for Lanlan too. I gave the seeds I gave Junmo to Lanlan. Now only yours are left. Never mind, you can eat them for now. I'll plant them for you. Just remember to take good care of them when they're ready..."

Now, the sacred trees covering the mountain are bearing fruit.

But there is no one to share it with me.

...

Extra? Canglan

My brother and I are spirits born of the same womb, and we were both physically weak from birth.

I heard from other deities that this happened because my brother absorbed my divine power.

Therefore, my brother felt very guilty towards me, and he took good care of me.

The other people in the heavenly realms are also very kind to me.

I know that one day my spirit will dissipate.

But I have a good attitude. I live happily every day. I love watching plays and dramas about the human world, and I also enjoy painting in my spare time.

I like many things: I like fireworks, I like clay figurines, I like food...

The gods and immortals in the heavens treated me very well, but I didn't really like it because most of their concern for me was out of pity and sympathy.

This reminds me constantly that one day I will vanish into nothingness.

I find it difficult to fit in with them.

My brother is very good to me, but I feel that he feels more guilty towards me.

All I want is to be treated as a normal, ordinary person and to be part of the group.

Later, I met Junmo. He was the only person who treated me normally. There was no pity or sympathy in his eyes when he looked at me. He was willing to get close to my heart to understand me and get to know me.

I am in love with him.

I think God has been kind to me; my brother brought back a rabbit demon.

This is the first time I've ever seen a demon.

Her name is Mu Tiantian, and she lives in the celestial realm disguised as a celestial being.

Since she came, my brother has been happy every day, and he no longer feels guilty towards me all the time, but treats me like a normal brother and sister.

Tian Tian also finds different ways to play with me every day, letting me experience the joy of friendship.

I also drew a portrait of Tian Tian for my brother, which he loved and has treasured ever since.

I thought the happy days would last forever.

However, one day I suddenly realized that Junmo was different from before, and my body was getting weaker and weaker.

I think my death is imminent.

When Junmo found out, he felt very sorry and cared about me, but there was no love in his eyes when he looked at me.

I followed him to a remote, empty island. It turned out that Jun Mo was actually Mu Yexuan in disguise.

Mu Yexuan needs to periodically absorb Jun Mo's immortal power to maintain his disguise.

My divine power is weak, and Mu Yexuan discovered this. He threatened me with Jun Mo's life, forbidding me from telling anyone.

I had no choice but to agree, and spent the night with Junmo on that empty island. I felt my body was about to give out.

Finally, I mustered my last breath and met Tian Tian, ​​telling her about Mu Yexuan's disguise as Jun Mo.

Tian Tian seemed to already know, and she told me not to worry, that she would have a way to deal with him.

I was relieved. I wanted to see my brother again, but my body couldn't hold on any longer and started to dissipate.

Before I died, the last thing I saw was Tian Tian doing everything she could to keep a wisp of my soul.

At first, she told me that she wouldn't let me disappear, and I thought that was just something she said to comfort me.

And she actually did it.

Such a great kindness, I only wish to repay it in the future.

I was reborn as a human.

In this life, I am no longer the goddess Canglan; I can be myself.

I gave myself a name—Starry Night.

Just like I want to transform into countless stars...
