Above the clouds.
The realm of gods.
After the heavenly soldiers and generals left the clouds, they ran directly towards the Heavenly Court.
The Emperor Sikong sat at the head of the table, his majestic gaze sweeping over the various deities below.
Today, there is a court meeting once every seven days.
"Report!"
"Emperor Sikong!"
"The power of the Purple Spirit Pearl has been discovered."
The group was discussing events from a hundred years ago when they heard the heavenly soldier's words and their faces lit up with joy.
"The Purple Spirit Orb has been lit up?"
"Yes, Your Majesty."
These words were spoken.
The gods below began to whisper among themselves, each one moved to tears.
"Emperor Sikong, does this mean that the Goddess Ziling has been reincarnated?"
"Your Majesty, I will go down to the mortal realm now to search for her whereabouts."
"Your Majesty, let's go down as well."
"Emperor Sikong, the goddess Ziling loves the elixirs I refine the most. If I take a few down with me, I will surely bring her back safely."
"Emperor Sikong..."
Everyone rushed to persuade the Emperor, who had hardly smiled in the last hundred years, with all their might.
The Emperor raised his hand.
The entire room fell silent.
"If Zi Ling is reincarnated, she must be a baby, to put it bluntly, an infant."
"She might not even know any of you. Why would you old fogies go to see her? What if you scare her silly?"
"How many divine attributes do you possess that I would destroy?"
The gods below all bowed their heads, fearing that they would be called out by the Emperor Sikong.
"Emperor Sikong, now that Goddess Ziling is an infant, why bother searching for her again?"
"The divine realm isn't indispensable."
“Zi Ling has been dead for a hundred years. The God Realm has been completely transformed. Even if she were to return, the God Realm would not need her.”
Qingxuan Zhenjun snorted coldly.
Everyone knows that Qingxuan Zhenjun and Ziling had a grudge in the past, and whenever Ziling's affairs are mentioned, he is always the first to object.
For a century, everyone has gotten used to it.
"True Lord Qingxuan, back then, the High Goddess Ziling fought against both the demon and monster races alone, sealing the barrier with her own body. If I had known this would happen, I should have sent you!"
"You—" Qingxuan Zhenjun was so angry that he couldn't utter a word.
With a flick of his sleeve, he avoided the other person's gaze.
Emperor Sikong stood up.
"Alright, that concludes today's court assembly."
"It's rare for the High Goddess Ziling to be reincarnated as an infant, so let her play around."
Everyone nodded: "Yes, Your Majesty."

"Lin Chang'an!"
"So, you insulted me the other day, and now you're trying to curry favor with my brother, huh?"
Lin Chang'an and Sun Chengcai are releasing sky lanterns.
Before anyone knew it, Sun Rugo stood behind Sun Chengcai, hands on her hips, glaring angrily at Lin Chang'an.
Lin Chang'an truly felt miserable.
Doesn't she have eyes to see?
When did he start currying favor with Sun Chengcai?
I bought this Kongming lantern myself; Sun Cheng came along on his own, okay?
Lin Chang'an released his hands, and the Kongming lantern flew away.
Then, standing opposite Sun Rugo, he said with a helpless expression:
"Miss, may I ask where you saw me fawning over him?"
"I bought this Kongming lantern, do I need to curry favor with him?"
Sun Rugo suddenly realized, and then reached out and pointed at her younger brother.
"Oh, so you've been ordering my brother around, treating him like a servant?"
"Who said he was a servant?" Lin Chang'an was bewildered. Did he say that Sun Chengcai was a servant?
Which sentence did he say?
"You think that by using tricks like this, I'll even notice you?"
"Look at you, from head to toe, except for the cute baby in your arms, you are not cute anywhere else."
Sun Rugo was furious; the more she looked at him, the angrier she became.
He grabbed Sun Cheng and turned to head away.
Just then, cries for help came from not far away.
"Grab him."
"Someone stole my money."
A woman not far away pointed in a direction and cried out loudly.
"Is there anyone who can help me?"
"That's the money I've painstakingly saved up. Please help me."
Upon hearing this, Sun Rugo immediately rolled up her sleeves, ready to rush in the direction the woman pointed.
Before she could even take a step, her clothes were grabbed.
She looked furious and turned around.
She discovered that it was the very person she hated—Lin Chang'an.
"Lin Chang'an, what are you doing?"
“Sun Rugo, you look only eight or nine years old, but that guy looks old enough to be your father. Are you going to help him?”
"Can you beat someone so strong and physically robust?"
Sun Rugo raised her chin, put her hands on her hips, and gave off an expression that said, "How could I possibly lose?"
"Lin Chang'an, just because you can't doesn't mean I can't."
"Get out of the way!"
Lin Chang'an ignored her and directly shoved Lin Wanwan into Sun Rugo's hands.
Then he walked to the side and stood next to a man who looked burly.
"Brother, did you see that thief just now?"
The man looked down at the boy, who looked to be about ten years old, with his arms crossed.
"I saw it."
"Then why don't you go and help her?"
"Why should I help her? She's nobody to me."
Look, they all know to stay out of it!
When the man's words reached Sun Rugo's ears, she was about to go over and say something, but when she saw Lin Wanwan, she couldn't move her legs.
"Brother, that young lady is no ordinary person; she is the daughter of a high-ranking official."
"If the Minister finds out that you helped her retrieve the purse, he will surely reward you handsomely."
Upon hearing that she was actually the daughter of a high-ranking official, the man's expression shifted.
“If you had been any slower, the thief might have been caught by someone else.”
