I waited for ages but You didn't show up. That's strange, why is You so slow this time?
The other immortals also returned one after another, but there was no trace of You.
I got up and walked towards a celestial official whose face I recognized, wanting to ask about the situation. When the official saw me walking towards him, he quickly bowed to me and said, "Your Majesty."
Why isn't You back yet?
"I don't know either. Should Emperor Xin send some people to take a look?"
"Okay." I nodded. "Send more people to check, and be quick."
"Alright." The celestial official nodded and went to gather everyone to search for the secluded place.
I nodded in satisfaction and stayed where I was to wait for You, so as not to miss her.
After the immortals summoned by the celestial official left, the place immediately became deserted again, with hardly anyone around.
"One star, two stars, two hundred and two stars, three hundred and six stars, five hundred and thirty-three stars, sixteen thousand stars." I lay on the grass looking at the starry sky, counting from west to east, but still no one returned. The immortals did not return, and You was nowhere to be seen.
I was getting really impatient and was thinking of going out to find the secluded spot myself. Just as I was about to set off, someone finally returned.
I looked at the person who had arrived with surprise, but then I noticed something was wrong with him. He rushed up to me, almost tripping, "Your Majesty, oh...oh...oh, something terrible has happened!"
"What's wrong? Speak slowly." I quickly stepped forward to help him up.
"Emperor Xin, Emperor You, he... Emperor You is facing off against the Ancestor of Witches all by himself!"
"The Ancestor of Witchcraft?"
"yes."
"No way? Didn't the Witch Ancestor and the others disappear long ago? How could they suddenly reappear?" I hurriedly asked.
The twelve Witch Ancestors were the ancestors of the Witch Clan. Each of them possessed unique skills and immense magical power. We paid a heavy price to drive back the Witch Clan that day. The Witch Ancestors had disappeared for ten thousand years. Why have they suddenly returned now?
How could You possibly defeat the Witch Ancestor alone? Back then, it took me and Emperor Donghuang Jun to defeat him together. Now, You is fighting alone, and he hasn't even recovered his memories from his past life. How could he possibly win?
"Your Majesty, I don't know either. When we arrived, Emperor You and the Witch Ancestor were already fighting. We rushed over, but it was too late..."
"Too late?"
"Yes, we had just arrived when the Nether Emperor chased the Witch Ancestor into the cave. The cave was protected by a barrier, and none of us could get in."
"Why didn't you stop them?" I blurted out in a panic.
"Your Majesty, I tried to persuade Emperor You, but I couldn't." The man glanced at me and explained in a low voice.
"Where is it? Hurry! Take me there." It's no use blaming them now; I can only rush over and see what's going on.
"Yes," the celestial official hurriedly nodded in response.
"Feng Su, Feng Su, Feng Su!" I hurriedly called out to Feng Su, because I had to take Feng Su with me since we were in a hurry.
"Master, I'm here." Feng Su's voice came from afar, and soon I saw Feng Su's figure. The first thing that caught my eye was Feng Su's dazzling yellow hair.
"Master, is something the matter?"
"Feng Su, something has happened to You, I have to go and see."
"Oh," Feng Su replied, not in a hurry.
"Feng Su!"
"Okay, okay, I understand." Feng Su glanced at me and transformed into a phoenix.
Feng Su has never really cared about You; I even feel like he dislikes You a bit.
“Let’s go.” I sat down on Feng Su first and said to the celestial official on the ground.
The celestial official nodded and sat down not far from me. I turned to the celestial official and said, "You are responsible for guiding Feng Su."
