The secret room of Chongguang Hall in the Southern Palace.
A dark passage extends to a bright garden, where a girl sits quietly on a wicker chair reading a book.
"Xi Huan, I'm here." The man pushed open the wooden door, and the girl looked up at the newcomer.
"Ayi, what do you think? What kind of person is a god?"
"I..." Tang Yi went to sit next to him and said apologetically, "I didn't see them."
He was afraid, Xi Huan knew it. She put down the book and held his face, "It's okay. If you're afraid, don't go see them. Everything will be fine once they leave."
"I'm sorry, I'm useless." Tang Yi touched a strange wrinkle on her face, "I'm sorry to have to let you live here for a while."
Xi Huan chuckled and shook his head, "I'm not wronged. It's me who prevented you from seeing the gods."
Suddenly one of the vines that were tangled and stretched upward in front of him fell down, and a tiny bit of hope ignited in Tang Yi's eyes.
"Do you think...will he be different? Didn't a child say in the scene of the punishment of the godslayer that day that gods also have emotions and desires, and can be partial? If we take the initiative to admit our mistakes and explain the reasons, will they forgive us?"
"And the new Snow God is a fox, isn't he? Perhaps..."
"It's different." Xi Huan interrupted with a wry smile: "She is a fox spirit raised by the Snow God and His chosen successor. We are different from her..."
They are monsters created by the gods in Mount Aimeng, and are strange existences.
The red color of the crack at the left corner of Xi Huan's eye deepened, and the bitterness in her heart became even worse, "What's more, I'm not even a monster." She is not a monster, she is the product of monsters and humans, an incomplete monster that is not tolerated by heaven.
Four hundred years ago, a huge rock fell to the earth, causing a forest fire that almost destroyed Mount Aimeng. Just as the beasts and birds were fleeing in all directions, a golden light rose from the mountain, and then the halo spread, and the fire was extinguished instantly.
Therefore, fog rose up on Mount Aimeng, turning it into a mysterious place that no one could enter. Only the animals and plants in the mountain knew that immortals from the divine realm had descended to earth and taken root there.
At first, the immortals only practiced to repair their injuries on their own. Later, in order to facilitate their work, they helped some animals to become spirits. After four hundred years, the spirits in the mountains spread all over the world, gathering news from the mortal world for them.
Five years ago, for unknown reasons, all the monsters in Dongwu Kingdom retreated, and then many areas retreated as well. Now all the monsters are in the southern territory.
It was only after the "divine vision" three months ago that they realized that a god had descended to earth in Dongwu.
Although they are all gods, they are different. However, because they are all gods, they all uphold the dignity of gods and cannot be violated. Those who kill gods will be severely punished.
The Northern Barbarians, simply because a member of the royal family murdered a god, were cursed by the people and the dynasty was on the verge of collapse. And since they, the emperor, murdered a god, what would be the fate of the Southern Kingdom?
Six years ago, Tang Yi was still a transparent prince. During an autumn hunt, he accidentally entered the Aimeng Mountain. He was lost for three days, ate poisonous mushrooms and almost fell off a cliff. He was rescued by Xi Huan and sent out of the mountain.
That day, he fell in love with her at first sight. After that, he often went to that exit in an attempt to see Xi Huan again. Fortunately, after waiting for a month, Xi Huan came out to see him. They made an appointment for a long time and fell in love.
Half a year later, Tang Yi wanted to take Xi Huan back to the palace to get married, but was stopped by an immortal in the mountains, who was Xi Huan's grandfather.
Xi Huan's grandmother was a peach blossom demon. The immortal did not love her or his child. He just wanted to know what the children born from humans and demons in the mortal world were like, and whether they could produce extremely talented people like in the spiritual world.
But there is a barrier between humans and demons, and pregnancy is extremely difficult. Her mother gave birth to many children with many mortals, and she is the only one who grew up and has demonic powers.
The immortal now wants her to have a child with another half-demon. Xi Huan tries to break free from his control, and a fight breaks out. Tang Yi sneakily attacks the immortal and kills him.
He killed the immortals, but the immortals in the mountains did not pursue the matter and did not care about his death; but the gods of Dongwu punished the godslayers, so are they here for this reason?
Tang Yi secretly observed Rong Chaoxi and others for several days and found that they did nothing else except eating, drinking, having fun, and sightseeing. They never mentioned him, the emperor who had never appeared.
He felt a little relieved and prepared to meet them tomorrow to find out the purpose of their visit.
The next day, Tang Yi had packed up and was about to go out to meet the Prince of Dongwu when a palace maid came with a message that the Queen Mother was calling him urgently.
He turned and went to the secret room. As soon as he pushed the door open, he heard Xi Huan say anxiously, "A lot of monsters have been dealt with. They are here to capture them!"
