Back in the ancient realm, Feng Tianhua and Nianrou, each with their respective subordinates, were still staring at each other in the sky. After a while, Tianyin's voice rang in Nianrou's mind. Hearing the Crown Prince's order for her to retreat, Nianrou glared fiercely at Feng Tianhua and the rest of the Phoenix Clan before leaving with her subordinates.
Not long after they left, a spatial rift appeared in the sky, and Ayao flew out of it, holding a golden fruit. The Phoenix Clan members were excited upon seeing her.
"Your Highness, Young Emperor!" Feng Tianhua bowed.
The others also bowed, and when they saw the fruit in A Yao's hand, they all thought: As expected, when the young emperor makes a move, even the eldest prince of the dragon clan is no match for him.
Ayao tossed the Burning Saint Fruit to Feng Tianhua, who caught it reflexively. He stared at Ayao, a look of surprise and confusion on his handsome face. Ayao looked at him and said:
"You found it, so here you go! You've already reached the peak of the Great Luo Golden Immortal realm. After consuming this Sacred Burning Fruit and cultivating for a period of time, you should be able to break through to the Upper Immortal King realm."
Feng Tianhua was thrilled upon hearing this. His heart pounded as he looked at the fruit in his hand. Although he had discovered the fruit, he knew he wouldn't have been able to snatch it if the Young Emperor hadn't come. Moreover, the Young Emperor was at the peak of the Taiyi Golden Immortal realm, just one step away from entering the Daluo Golden Immortal realm. She needed this fruit very much too.
"Your Highness, you managed to snatch this, so it rightfully belongs to you." Feng Tianhua held the Burning Saint Fruit in both hands and handed it to A Yao.
Ayao looked at him, her beautiful face turning cold: "I said I'd give it to you, so I'll give it to you, you old hag. If you don't become a Celestial King after eating this fruit, I'll kick you to death."
Feng Tianhua: "..."
How terrifying!!
Ayao turned and vanished into the sky as a streak of light. Feng Tianhua held the fruit, and all his subordinates gathered around him.
"General, General, you are so lucky! If you eat it, you will surely become an immortal king."
"Your Highness the Young Emperor is so kind!"
"General, let me touch this fruit!"
"I'll touch it first!"

Phoenix Palace.
In the courtyard grew towering paulownia trees, their leaves a brilliant golden hue adorned with mysterious patterns. Inside the palace, a stunningly beautiful woman in a red palace gown stood before a mica screen, gazing at the paulownia trees outside. As if lost in thought, a faint melancholy settled over her exquisite face.
"Master, Master!"
Ayao came from outside the palace and ran inside. Her reflection was mirrored on the smooth, mirror-like floor. As she entered, the maids inside bowed silently to her. Fengwu turned to look at her, and Ayao sat down opposite Fengwu.
"You seem so happy, what good thing happened?" Feng Wu asked with a smile.
Ayao then told Fengwu about stealing the Sacred Fruit of Burning, and Fengwu laughed and said, "This Sacred Fruit of Burning is too useful to you, and you just gave it away to someone else like that?"
“They’re all our own people. I don’t need that fruit; I can still reach the Great Luo Golden Immortal realm. It’s just a matter of cultivating for a few hundred more years. How can advancing with the help of rare and precious materials compare to advancing through one’s own efforts?” A Yao said.
"Feng Tianhua has good potential, but he's too lazy. You value him so much, is it because you want him to be your confidant in the future?" Feng Wu asked.
"Master thinks he lacks motivation? No problem, I'll just kick him." Ayao said with a smile.
"As long as you're happy," Feng Wu said with a smile.
Feng Wu suddenly lowered her head, her eyes dimming slightly. A Yao, noticing her unusual expression, asked, "Master, what's wrong?"
Feng Wu immediately raised her head: "I just went to see the Empress."
Upon hearing this, Ayao asked, "Has he still not woken up after a month?"
"I wonder what she saw?" Feng Wu sighed.
The Moon Queen has been asleep for over 15,000 years. Previously, A Yao and Feng Wu visited the Moon Queen in the Guanghan Realm. The Moon Queen's eldest disciple, Pian Ran, said that the Moon Queen had performed a divination before falling asleep. No one knows what she saw when she divined the secrets of heaven, which caused a backlash that led her to fall into a deep sleep, where she has not yet awakened.
Why did he fall into a deep sleep a month later? Actually, it has something to do with Lou Munan and Xu Fengzhi.
Back when Xu Fengzhi and Lou Munan were fighting, Yuehou's clone passed by the Canglan Realm. Although the clone didn't find anything, it felt something was amiss, so after returning to the Guanghan Realm, it told its main body about it.
A month later, out of curiosity, she cast a divination. Unexpectedly, while deducing the secrets of heaven, she learned too many things. The cause and effect involved in these things even exceeded the limits that she, as a Celestial Emperor, could bear, causing a backlash, and thus she fell into a deep sleep.
"He'll wake up eventually, Master, so there's no need to worry too much," Ayao said.
Feng Wu nodded.
"Master, I want to go into seclusion," A Yao said to Feng Wu.
"Do you want to break through to the Great Luo Golden Immortal Realm?" Feng Wu asked.
Ayao nodded.
Feng Wu said, "Don't push yourself too hard."
For over ten thousand years, Feng Wu and A Yao have been secretly searching for Lou Mu Nan's whereabouts, but they have never found him. Feng Wu knows that A Yao is determined to kill Lou Mu Nan and has been pushing herself to the limit.
"I need to reach the Immortal Emperor realm as soon as possible," A Yao said, her eyes gleaming with intense light. Even though she could temporarily restore her Immortal Emperor cultivation to this level using the Time-Shattering Talisman and elevate herself to the Immortal Emperor realm using the Kunpeng King Armor, it wouldn't be enough. She certainly didn't have the strength to kill Lou Mu Nan.
If she wants to unite the powerful races, she needs overwhelming strength. Otherwise, who will obey her, Feng Yao?
