Chao Li patted Shangguan Qingwan's shoulder with satisfaction, "Very good! You are worthy of being my Grand Princess of the Demonic Path!"
"Actually, I've been wanting to ask this for a while now... Since none of the Six Paths Patriarchs have children, and there's no precedent, then who decided that the Demon Patriarch's daughter should be called Taiji?"
Chao Li paused for a moment, then looked at Shangguan Qingwan excitedly, "Very good, you asked a very good question!"
"Why is she called Taiji...? That all started when your sister crushed your father to death. I single-handedly pushed your sister to the throne against all odds. The demons deliberated for three days and three nights before assigning your sister the title of Taiji..."
As the two were talking, the gate of Ganlin Palace opened, and a handsome immortal servant came down the stairs with small steps. He stopped in front of them and bowed, "Grand Princess, oh... Chaoli Yazu..."
Chao Li obviously knew him, and responded casually when he saw this.
The immortal servant introduced himself with a smile, "Little God Du Qiyan, I am the personal servant of the Divine Ancestor, and have followed him for more than 100,000 years."
"Please follow me, the two of you. The God Ancestor has been waiting for the Grand Princess inside for a long time."
Shangguan Qingwan said softly, "God servant, lead the way!"
Du Qiyan turned around and led the way, Shangguan Qingwan and Chao Li followed. However, after walking a few steps, Shangguan Qingwan suddenly stopped.
"What's wrong?" Chao Li asked.
Shangguan Qingwan looked at the palace in front of her, and a sense of nervousness inexplicably surged in her heart. She had obviously prepared herself to be calm, but when she thought that she was about to meet Heng Lin, a complicated feeling surged into her heart like a wave.
Love for him and hidden longing, hatred for him and swelling grievances...
She could not forget the excitement and joy of that night, nor could she forget the endless regret and despair in the dark night.
Does he...know?
Did he know that she had died once before? Did he know that his deception had caused her so much pain? Did he know that his prized apprentice had caused her so much harm?
These thoughts had been lingering in her mind for a long time. She wanted to ignore them, but when she was about to touch him, they surged up completely.
But she knew that for the sake of her dignity, she couldn't ask these questions.
Whether he knows it or not, he is her uncle now. Even if Yue'er pats her chest and says that the Six Paths Patriarch was transformed from clear and turbid air, was not born from the womb, and has no blood relationship, but I am different. I was born by my father and mother. Big sister, you are also born by my father and mother!
Chao Li looked at Shangguan Qingwan's expression which suddenly became gloomy. He asked a question but got no response, so Chao Li guessed.
After a while, he looked understanding and whispered comfortingly, "Although the Gods are rich, as a demon, you don't need to feel inferior. At worst, I can do some research. Once the dragon veins are restored, the demons can return to their former splendor and luxury!"
Upon hearing this, Shangguan Qingwan frowned and stared at Chao Li for a long time, then finally sighed.
She strongly suspected that Chao Li did not have a brain when he was reborn.
Of course, she didn't dare say these words to his face. If Chao Li started to throw a tantrum, he would be very troublesome.
Shangguan Qingwan chuckled, "I have low self-esteem? I don't even know how to spell the word low self-esteem!"
Chao Li chuckled, "That's right!"
The young man was still immersed in his success as the Flower of Understanding, feeling smug and even walking with a swagger. Seeing Du Qiyan walking ahead, he whispered in his ear, "Guess what this Du Qiyan's original form is?"
Shangguan Qingwan followed his gaze and shook her head.
Chao Li suppressed a laugh, "Guess?"
"Toad?" Chao Li's expression made her unable to think of anything good.
Chao Li raised his eyebrows and smiled even more. "Girl, use your imagination..."
Shangguan Qingwan was so curious, "Don't keep me in suspense."
The two of them deliberately slowed down their pace and stayed away from Du Qiyan to avoid being heard.
Chao Li covered his mouth and laughed, "It's the belly button..."
As he spoke, he pointed to his stomach.
"Pfft..." Shangguan Qingwan couldn't help laughing. She glanced at Du Qiyan and felt relieved when she saw that he didn't hear her. She asked in surprise, "Why the belly button?"
"Why would that be? He just became a spirit from his belly button!"
"Navel eyes?"
Chao Li opened his dark eyes and nodded.
"Then what does he bless?"
Chao Li was startled when he heard this, as if he was stumped by the question. He then fell into deep thought. After a while, he said with a serious face, "Maybe it's a blessing... that everyone won't catch a cold..."
Shangguan Qingwan: ...
"Ahem...that's quite important..."
Chao Li responded seriously, "That's right!"
In front, the navel's eyes had already brought people here, and they saluted respectfully, "God Ancestor, the Grand Princess has arrived..."
Heng Lin raised his eyes, and the next second, they narrowed slightly, with a terrifying coldness floating in the bottom of his clear eyes.
The warm hall suddenly became cold.
Shangguan Qingwan and Chao Li were completely unaware and were still whispering to Du Qiyan. The two demons covered their mouths, each laughing more happily than the other.
Du Qiyan followed Heng Lin's gaze and whispered, "Grand Princess... Grand Princess..."
"Ah?" Shangguan Qingwan responded suddenly, turned her head, and in an instant, a smile froze on the corner of her mouth.
Wearing a golden crown and brocade robe, he looks cool and majestic. He sits upright in the hall, his demeanor high and mighty, untainted by dust. What a magnificent divine power he possesses!
He was completely different from the way he was at her house.
If it weren't for the identical face and the familiar expression of anger and sarcasm, Shangguan Qingwan would have really thought that the Mr. Heng in her memory was just a dream.
At this moment, Heng Lin stared at her quietly, with the corner of his mouth raised in a smile.
This was not a friendly expression. Shangguan Qingwan's heart skipped a beat. She looked away and said, "I... am here."
Third Uncle, she really couldn’t bring herself to call him that! !
Fortunately, Heng Lin did not make things difficult for her, but instead made things difficult for Chao Li.
"A great Yazu, how can you be so idle as to serve as a servant to a little girl?"
As he spoke, Heng Lin's cold gaze shifted to Shangguan Qingwan again.
He naturally knew that Chao Li was Shangguan Qingwan's servant, and Shangguan Shu had informed him long ago.
Shangguan Qingwan was a little unhappy. What was wrong with Yazu? Her sister said that this was their family heirloom and born-in-law. What was wrong with him being her servant?
She was about to refute when the law of mutual generation and mutual restraint of all things - the Chaoli Kehenglin Law - came into being.
Chao Li instantly produced a portable magical weapon, a huge hammer, and carried it on his shoulder, looking both rude and mean. "Hey, isn't it just being a servant? I heard that back then, a certain God Ancestor first served as a male nanny for the Demon Ancestor Hengyue, then served as a servant to the young Master Qiyou, and finally became the master of our eldest concubine. He didn't mind being a slave of three surnames, but I..."
The Changtian Divine Sword stabbed towards Chao Li, but Chao Li was prepared and knocked the sword away with a hammer.
There was a crisp sound as the sword hit the ground. Shangguan Qingwan and Du Qiyan were stunned. Before anyone could react, Chao Li stepped on the hilt of the sword, swung the hammer, and began hammering away...
Bang... Bang... Bang...
Sparks flew from the sword...
At the top, Heng Lin’s face was as black as the bottom of a pot.
