The emperor and empress told her that she would rule the immortal realm in the future and would take a concubine. As for the so-called music, chess, calligraphy and painting, those were skills that her future partner should learn.
Ye Ling was very clever from a young age, and she could learn anything quickly. Soon, the immortal lords could no longer teach her anything, so the emperor and empress set their sights on the legendary Hongde Venerable God.
No one knows how the Emperor and Empress managed to do it, but she actually managed to invite the legendary Hongde Venerable God to him. Moreover, after seeing Ye Ling, the Hongde Venerable God agreed to take her as his last disciple without saying a word.
Ye Ling still remembers that when she returned to the palace that day, the Emperor and Empress hugged her excitedly, crying and laughing. Then the Emperor and Empress told her that since she was following the Venerable Hongde, she should study hard so that she could live well even without her protection in the future.
It was only then that she learned that Venerable Hongde was a supreme deity above the Six Realms. Even the God Emperor in the God Realm had to treat Venerable Hongde with utmost respect.
Hongde Venerable Goddess has a total of six disciples. Apart from her and Hongyun, each of the other disciples is already a powerful figure in the God Realm.
Ye Ling asked the Emperor and Empress, "How did you come to know the Venerable Hongde? Aren't you a person from the Celestial Realm?"
At that time, the Emperor and Empress had a complex look in their eyes, which Ye Ling couldn't understand then. Now, thinking back, she understands that the Emperor and Empress's eyes were clearly filled with regret and disappointment.
The emperor and empress told her that she came from the realm of gods and was the daughter of the second disciple of the Venerable Hongde. She had once sneaked off to the immortal realm to play and met the current immortal emperor, who knew at the time that she came from the realm of gods.
At that time, the Celestial Emperor was not yet the Celestial Emperor, but just an ordinary Celestial Lord. He pretended not to know her true origins and pretended to fall in love with her at first sight, making her so infatuated that she insisted on marrying him.
There were many twists and turns, but in the end the Empress married the Immortal Emperor as she wished. With the Empress's help, the Immortal Emperor rose all the way to the rank of Immortal Emperor, and even sat on the throne of the Immortal Realm with her help.
They thought their happiness was just beginning, but who knew that not only were they unhappy, they gradually became enemies.
The trigger was that the Empress, being a deity, had difficulty conceiving, while the Celestial Emperor desired a child of his own, leading to frequent arguments between them.
Later, the emperor and empress took Ye Ling back, which displeased the immortal emperor. He felt that he could have his own child, so why should he accept a wild child of unknown origin?
The Empress did not tell the Immortal Emperor Ye Ling her true identity, and even sealed her unique secret with divine magic.
The Empress did not tell the Celestial Emperor her true identity; the Celestial Emperor always thought she was just an ordinary goddess.
During the argument when Ye Ling was brought back, the Empress told Ye Ling that she sensed a malevolent aura from the Immortal Emperor, and that he had other women after that, and even gave birth to a son and a daughter not long after.
However, because of the Empress's status, the Celestial Emperor did not dare to openly strip Ye Ling of her title as Princess, but his dissatisfaction with Ye Ling grew stronger.
The Emperor and Empress told Ye Ling that she was the closed-door disciple of the Venerable Hongde, and that she should not tell the Immortal Emperor, otherwise he would use her again.
The Empress said she wanted to see just how shameless the Immortal Emperor could be, and she also wanted to see how regretful and furious he would be when he found out about Hong Ling's master and the Empress's true identity.
The emperor and empress also said that once she formally joined the Hongmen, she would begin her counterattack against the immortal emperor and then return to the divine realm.
She doesn't want the Celestial Emperor anymore; she feels disgusted whenever she sees him.
But Ye Ling never expected that not long after she joined the Hongmen, she would receive news of the Emperor and Empress's tragic death.
At that time, she was studying diligently in the Void Realm when her senior brother suddenly ran over and told her that the Empress had died.
She ran back to the Celestial Realm in a frenzy, wanting to see the Empress, but the Celestial Emperor ordered the immortals to stop her, preventing her from seeing her one last time. The Celestial Emperor said that this was for her own good, because the Empress had been killed by foreign tribes and was already unrecognizable, and he wanted the Empress to leave with dignity.
Ye Ling didn't believe a single word of his nonsense, but her master wasn't there at the time, and it was just her and her senior brother. Even if she didn't believe him, there was nothing she could do but watch helplessly as the empress was buried in the imperial tomb in the immortal realm.
And it was after that that she was targeted by the Immortal Emperor.
No, perhaps he had his eye on me much earlier. He had always wanted to get rid of me, but he just hadn't found the right opportunity.
