"There are three great pleasures in the world: ascending the throne to become emperor, transcending tribulation to become an immortal, and gazing at a beautiful woman with drunken eyes." The dashing man embraced a slender woman in a pink dress and kissed her on the cheek. "I can't be an emperor or an immortal, so I can only gaze at a beautiful woman with drunken eyes."

"Ugh, how annoying!" The woman pressed her hand to her chest.

The woman held down the man's mischievous hand, her strength a mixture of resistance and attraction, not so much a gesture of stopping him, but more like taking his hand and helping him massage herself.

The dashing man laughed heartily, gesturing merrily as he said to the singer, "Sing 'Shy at First Sight'!"

The zither and pipa tunes changed, and the green-skirted singer sang sweetly:

"At first sight, she blushed, and our hearts were drawn together. I saw her, so charming and alluring, with a touch of tenderness."

The dashing man hooked his right arm around the woman in the pink dress by the shoulder, slipped his hand inside her collar, and patted his knee with his left hand in rhythm, thoroughly enjoying himself and exuding an air of effortless elegance.

The scholar with the jade flute sat down and poured himself a bowl of wine.

There was a drunken disturbance outside the door, but the noise soon faded into the distance.

"Aren't you afraid?" the Jade Flute Scholar asked.

"What's there to be afraid of?" The dashing man grabbed a whole roasted chicken with his left hand and took a big bite, skin, meat, and bone all at once. "I have already mastered the Thunder God, and with the Seven Birds Blade in hand, I have the power to overturn the heavens and the wonders of endless transformation. The throne of the Heavenly Emperor, that brat Li Changzhou can sit on it, but I can't?"

"Today, I'm going to take the unconventional path!"

"Let's first exchange words, then secretly exchange flirtatious glances. Remember it in my heart. Remember it in my heart~" The green-skirted singer's voice trembled, as if she was frightened by the scene before her.

The sounds of the zither and pipa, sometimes fast and sometimes slow, created a unique ambiance.

The scholar with the jade flute seemed somewhat drunk as he looked at the scene before him.

"They're already having fun?" The curtain was lifted, a fragrant breeze blew by, and out of nowhere appeared a beautiful woman dressed in revealing clothes, smiling sweetly.

"Xia'er, you've come at the perfect time! Let's play together!" the dashing man called out as he moved around.

The beautiful woman spat, her saliva landing on the handsome man's face. The handsome man wasn't annoyed; instead, he laughed heartily, wiped it away, and then stuffed his hand into the mouth of the woman in the pink dress beneath him.

The woman named Xia'er sat down next to the scholar with the jade flute, her body limply leaning against his chest.

The two were intimate like a married couple, admiring the dashing man's antics, their hands lightly caressing each other's bodies, sending waves of ecstasy through them.

After a while, the dashing man pulled away and slumped back down.

The woman in the pink dress lay there as if dead, truly dead, with only the whites of her eyes remaining, and her tongue limply sticking out of her mouth.

"That old codger hasn't arrived yet?" The dashing man took a sip of wine to quench his thirst and wiped his mouth with Xia'er's skirt.

Xia'er's face flushed, she pulled her skirt up and glared at him.

The scholar with the jade flute said calmly, "The older I get, the more afraid I become of death—"

A black beam of light swept over like a knife.

He raised his left hand and pointed with the jade flute.

Peng!

The shockwave exploded in the room, and the woman who was singing and playing the pipa was smeared onto the wall like a pancake. By the time she hit the ground, she was already dead.

A dashing young man, a scholar playing the jade flute, and a beautiful woman all looked at the woman playing the guzheng.

The woman pressed her hands on the strings of the instrument.

"Who said I'm afraid of death?" came a delicate-sounding woman's voice, but it was actually an old man's voice.

"You've successfully possessed her!" Xia'er's previously drunken expression immediately cleared.

The woman gave a strange laugh but did not answer.

Lei Dao Tianjun mastered Lei Gong Shen, and Chang Sheng Tianjun successfully possessed him again, achieving perfect essence, energy, and spirit, and restoring his magical power to its peak.

Now we're not just worried about the Heavenly Emperor, but also about these two turning against us after we succeed.

"Good!" Lei Dao Tianjun, who was half-lying down, slapped his knee hard. "Once that brat Li leaves the capital, the four of us will send him on his way!"

"It's not that simple." The Jade Flute Scholar picked up his wine cup and took a small sip.

"What?" Thunder Blade Heavenly Lord looked over.

The scholar with the jade flute put down his wine cup: "Have you forgotten? Where has the Heavenly Emperor been these past few days?"

The beautiful woman seemed to have thought of something, and frowned in thought, saying:

"According to the information I have received, the Heavenly Emperor sent snow on the 29th of the twelfth lunar month, and performed acrobatics on New Year's Eve, killed the Dragon King, gained Jiajing's trust, and not only took control of the Chaotian Palace, but also entered the Imperial Treasury."

"Are you worried that the boy's magical power will advance further and he will acquire new supernatural abilities?" Thunder Blade Heavenly Lord stared at Jade Flute Scholar.

"The Taoist scriptures in the palace are powerful, but precisely because they are so powerful, it is impossible for Li Changzhou to learn them in just a few days." The voice of the Eternal Heavenly Lord was sometimes male and sometimes female; the male voice was old and rough, while the female voice was young and pleasant.

"You old codger, have you forgotten the battle for the throne at Changbai Mountain back then?" The Jade Flute Scholar looked up at 'her'.

After the previous Heavenly Emperor and Empress were defeated by Wang Yangming, the Divine Sect held a contest of magic at Changbai Mountain to elect a new Heavenly Emperor.

The Divine Cult has no rules. Anyone who is a member of the Divine Cult and can win first place in a magical contest can become the new Heavenly Emperor.

In the battle of magic at Changbai Mountain, Li Changzhou was able to unleash his opponent's magic after only three moves.

The Eternal Heavenly Lord used the heavy water of the North Sea to condense the Mysterious Seed, which not only allows him to constantly change his body, but also enables him to use the heavy water to fight enemies.

A single drop of heavy water weighs a thousand pounds; when the Eternal Heavenly Lord made his move, a torrential downpour ensued, smashing everything in its path.

Li Changzhou stood in the heavy rain for almost half an hour and even seized control of Chongshui.

Heavy rain and torrential water floated in the air, like the North Sea hanging upside down, and the eerie blue light made the face of the Eternal Heavenly Lord look extremely ugly.

“With such talent, what Taoist arts can’t he learn?” said the Jade Flute Scholar.

The beautiful woman also said, "The Five Elements Qi Blade was already unparalleled in the world, and he even spent time deliberately learning it. It must be an earth-shattering supernatural power."
