Xuanfeng glanced at Fuchen's suddenly darkened face, and his mood instantly brightened.
Since he was scheming against her at every turn, she naturally didn't need to give him a friendly look.
Today, this is just the beginning.
"Ah Qian, what is your relationship with the Broom Star Lord?" Wuya leaned weakly against Xuanfeng Qian's chest and asked softly.
"Childhood sweethearts".
Xuanfeng smiled slightly, his words filled with self-deprecation.
For thousands of years, she has regarded the floating dust as a confidant.
Unexpectedly, he had been using her from the very beginning.
"He is your childhood sweetheart, so what is the Venerable One? Do you know that the Venerable One has personally admitted his feelings for you?"
Wuya originally intended to advise Xuanfengqian to find a new love, but he couldn't bear to see Lengye unable to have the love he desired.
Thinking about it this way, it changed its mind again and cried bitterly in her arms.
"Good girl, why are you crying?"
Xuanfeng gently stroked Wuya's tear-stained wings and suddenly realized that its eyes were already swollen from crying.
"Waaaah... A-Qian, His Majesty said he fell in love with you at first sight and likes you terribly. All my efforts over the years have been in vain."
"Love at first sight? Don't listen to his nonsense, he's just teasing you, you little crybaby."
Xuanfeng gently wiped away Wuya's tear-filled eyes and casually asked Qiyuan, "Did you just say that all the immortals are gathered in the Lingxiao Palace to discuss how to capture the Blood Demon?"
"That is indeed true."
Qi Yuan was in a daze and it took her a while to come back to her senses.
Prior to this, she only knew that Xuan Fengqian and Fu Chen had a very close relationship.
Unexpectedly, Xuan Fengqian used the phrase "childhood sweethearts" to describe their relationship.
If Xuan Fengqian truly falls deeply in love with Fu Chen, wouldn't she have no chance at all?
Even if there were only a sliver of a chance, she couldn't go against her conscience and steal a man from Xuan Fengqian.
Xuanfeng had treated her with the greatest kindness, and she could never do something so ungrateful.
Thinking of this, Qi Yuan lowered her eyes with a slight sense of loss, silently processing her emotions.
Xuanfeng Qianxi glanced at the dejected Qiyuan with his sharp eyes and quietly breathed a sigh of relief.
In fact, her phrase "childhood sweethearts" was meant for Qi Yuan.
She knew perfectly well that Fu Chen was not a good match for Qi Yuan, but she couldn't openly tell Qi Yuan how despicable Fu Chen was.
They had no choice but to use this method to subtly persuade Qi Yuan to leave.
Hopefully, Qi Yuan can understand her good intentions...
After a moment of contemplation, Xuan Fengqian then asked Qi Yuan, "Have the immortals come to a conclusion?"
"The Emperor originally intended to spare the Blood Demon's life, saying that all things have a spirit and everything should be done in accordance with the will of Heaven."
"Oh? Father is actually protecting the Blood Demon like this..."
Xuanfeng's shallow eyes flickered, and he had already guessed the Blood Demon's identity with a high degree of accuracy.
As expected, the Blood Demon should be Ji Shuo, Xuan Qianning's birth mother.
Qi Yuan shook her head and said in detail, "After the Emperor heard from the Crimson Flame Green Ox that the Princess had also gone to the Xuan Dian Platform last night, he changed his mind and immediately ordered the Blood Demon to be killed."
No sooner had she finished speaking than the White Emperor rushed into the Qingfeng Palace in a great hurry.
"My little one, were you hurt last night?"
"I did get a little injured, but I'm all better now."
Where are you injured?
The White Emperor was filled with remorse. If he had known that Ji Shuo's target was Xuan Fengqian, he should have killed them all back then.
“Father, those ten murders really have nothing to do with the Nine Nether Demon Lord. If he hadn’t saved me last night, I would probably have died at Ji Shuo’s hands long ago,” Xuan Feng said calmly.
She didn't say that to clear Leng Ye's name.
At this moment, all she wanted was to seek justice for the ten immortals.
The White Emperor was astonished and asked repeatedly, "How do you know the Blood Demon's original name?"
"What's so difficult about that?"
Xuanfeng Qian analyzed logically, "Firstly, her purpose was not to frame the Nine Nether Demon Lord, but to target me. Secondly, the only woman who could make Father feel guilty and show leniency is Ji Shuo, there is no other possibility."
"My little one, it is your father who has wronged you."
The White Emperor felt deeply ashamed.
Because of Ji Shuo back then, Yuan Heng left in a huff and has refused to return to the Immortal Realm ever since.
Now, Xuan Fengqian has almost lost his life again because of Ji Shuo. If he still has any pity for Ji Shuo, he is truly unworthy to be a husband and a father.
Xuanfeng glanced at the White Emperor, who was weeping uncontrollably, and gently comforted him, "Father, why bring up the past? When I get married, Mother will surely return to the Immortal Realm. At that time, you can give her a way out and find a way to keep her here. Wouldn't that be a happy ending for everyone?"
“My youngest son is right.”
While wiping away his tears, the White Emperor said solemnly, "My little one, what do you think of Dijun? He has already expressed his feelings to me, saying that he will marry no one but you in this life."
Xuanfeng was deeply conflicted.
She hasn't decided yet whether or not to cooperate with Dijun.
"My dearest child, never miss out on someone worthy of entrusting your life to." The White Emperor's voice choked with emotion, but his face wore a gentle smile. "My only wish is to see you get married in style while I am still alive."
Xuanfeng Qian Shen knew that the White Emperor had made up his mind to bear the tribulation of the gods for her, and she was deeply moved.
After careful consideration, she finally nodded and readily agreed to the marriage with Dijun. "Father, now that I have accepted Dijun's Wind-Fixing Hairpin, I will certainly keep my promise. He treats me very well, so don't worry."
"You even accepted the wind-fixing hairpin?"
The White Emperor was moved to tears again at the thought of his beloved daughter, whom he had raised for so many years, getting married. "Indeed, a daughter is too young to stay at home."
"Gah! Di Jun?"
Hearing this, Wuya, who was hiding in Xuanfeng Qian's sleeve, hurriedly jumped onto her shoulder and asked, "Aqian, are you really going to marry Dijun?"
"Little one, how did it get here?"
"It just came to visit me for a few days."
“My dear child, this is really not appropriate. If Dijun finds out that you still have Leng Ye’s bird, will he be at ease?”
With lightning speed, the White Emperor tucked Wuya, who was perched on her shoulder, into his sleeve and said firmly, "I will send it back to the Nine Netherworlds right now."
"Alright."
Xuanfeng responded softly.
As soon as Bai Di left, she went to the library.
To this day, she still hasn't figured out just how powerful the Divine Tribulation really is.
Although with her cultivation level, she was destined to die, she still wanted to fight back with all her might, and she couldn't give up easily as long as there was a glimmer of hope.
Unexpectedly, as soon as she stepped into the library, she bumped into Fuchen, who was sweeping the library.
"Princess, what brings you here?"
Fu Chen's handsome brows furrowed slightly as he asked her with a hint of suspicion.
Xuan Fengqian's eyelids twitched, fearing that Fu Chen would see through her intentions, and she said repeatedly, "Of course I came to find you."
"oh?"
Fu Chen was feeling down because of Xuan Fengqian's unusually cold attitude this morning, but when he heard that she had come specifically to find him, the gloom in his heart suddenly dissipated.
