Zaun remembered that this scepter was originally brought to this world by the Lord of Slaughter, but unexpectedly it fell into the hands of Emperor Yao.
What he didn't expect was that the other party handed it over to him so easily, and even added the power of the Human Emperor to it, making the scepter even more worthy of its name.
Becoming a human emperor is not so simple; one must gain the widespread recognition of the human race. At that time, perhaps only Emperor Yao had this ability.
"Does Your Excellency know what I'm going to do?" Zu'an asked curiously.
"I know a little bit. Didn't Zhuanxu also give you a sliver of Heavenly Court authority? That's the best option for the future we can see." Emperor Yao looked in the direction of the war between the Lich King and the Demon King, his eyes becoming exceptionally profound.
Zuan couldn't help but feel a sense of awe. The other party was not the simple schemer he had initially imagined; he also harbored great ambitions for revenge, only they had chosen different paths.
"By the way, I'm very sorry about what happened to Chang'e. After thinking about it, I've decided to give you another gift to express my sincerity." As he spoke, Di Yao reached out and made a gesture in the air beside him. It was as if a slit had been cut open in the entire space, forming a door. Behind the door, the darkness was dotted with starlight, just like outer space.
"This is..." Zu An was somewhat surprised when he sensed the aura of the Heavenly Court emanating from the door.
“It was a trump card I deliberately left behind. Originally, it could travel between the earth and the heavens at any time without having to go through the South Heavenly Gate, thus concealing its presence. But now that heaven and earth are separated, this portal has also been affected, and it can only be maintained for one more day,” Emperor Yao said with a smile. “You should really need this right now.”
Zaun had to admit that this guy really knew how to manipulate people: "Thanks!"
Emperor Yao glanced at the Lord of Slaughter beside him: "This one is yours."
After saying this, he turned and returned to the city, whereupon cheers erupted from the people.
Zu An thought to himself that Emperor Yao truly won the hearts of the people.
Looking at Salami's corpse not far away, Zaun felt a pang of sadness, never expecting her to end up like this.
After hesitating for a moment, I thought about how we had known each other and dug a simple grave on a distant mountain to bury her. I originally wanted to erect a monument, but after thinking about it, I didn't know what to write.
Looking at the small mound of earth in front of him, and thinking about what he had done, Zu An sighed: "Why did you do all this?"
Yun Yuqing, watching from afar, couldn't help but complain, "Brother Zu is always so chivalrous."
Ji Xiaoxi shook her head slightly: "Brother Zu has always been kind."
The Goddess of Wushan's eyes flickered slightly, and it was unclear what she was thinking.
After burying Salami, Zaun used the Seven-Colored Divine Light to put away the Lord of Slaughter, and then said to Xie Daoyun, "After returning to the timeline of Yumen Beiqing, seal him away, so that the historical loop can be closed."
Xie Daoyun nodded. She had already figured out the sealing formation, but she just couldn't find an opportunity to defeat the Lord of Slaughter before.
Zuan continued, "I'll send you back to Wushan first, then I'll go to the Heavenly Court."
The Goddess of Wushan frowned slightly as she gazed at the teleportation portal, her eyes filled with undisguised worry: "Be careful, it might be a trap."
"I did indeed sense the aura of the Heavenly Court. I just came back from there, so I can't be mistaken. I also located the coordinates of Wushan. If there's anything unusual inside, I can retreat at any time." With his current strength and understanding of spatial formations, Zu An was confident in his ability to protect himself.
Hearing him say that, the Goddess of Wushan was slightly relieved.
Yun Yuqing, who was standing to the side, had a strange expression on her face. Because of their last encounter, she had specifically asked Wu Hui about the Goddess of Wushan.
Knowing that she was always aloof and didn't interact with others, and that Wushan was never open to outsiders, the fact that Azu could come and go as she pleased, as if she were at home, made one wonder how far things had progressed between them.
Zu An casually swept his arms around the women, and an invisible, gentle force swept them up. Then, using the Rainbow Transformation Technique, he returned to Wushan in the blink of an eye.
"Be careful," the Goddess of Wushan warned. She knew the other party was going to find Chang'e, so she didn't want to follow them.
The other girls shared the same thought, but Zu An looked at Yun Yuqing and said, "According to what Wu Hui said before, you have pure Heavenly Court demon bloodline. You can't miss this opportunity. I'll take you up with me."
Yun Yuqing was a little surprised, but she immediately agreed happily.
Brother Zu's female confidantes are all incredibly outstanding, which puts a lot of pressure on her. If she has the opportunity to become stronger, she will not only be more at ease in the future, but also be able to better share the burden of Brother Zu's pressure.
The key is that I can spend more time alone with Brother Zu next.
Next, Zu An led Yun Yuqing back to the outskirts of Taoqiu City using the Rainbow Transformation Technique. Yun Yuqing exclaimed in amazement, "Brother Zu, you're getting more and more amazing! You were able to come back in the blink of an eye!"
Of course, what excited her even more was the feeling of being held alone in Brother Zu's arms.
"I happened to have recorded the coordinates here beforehand and even set a marker, otherwise it would have been difficult to get back so quickly," Zu An explained with a smile. He then checked once again to make sure the portal left by Di Yao was safe before leading Yun Yuqing inside.
The surrounding space distorted for a moment, and the two stepped out the next second. Seeing the familiar Heavenly Palace in the distance, they couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief at the same time.
The next second, a divine light flew from the Heavenly Palace, and soon the phantom of Zhuanxu appeared in front of the two. He was also somewhat surprised to see Zu An.
Zuan was equally surprised: "I just arrived, and you already found out?"
“To prevent the Heavenly Court from being affected by the Lich War, I have closed all the Heavenly Court's passages. Your kind of teleportation is usually hard to detect, but now it will be particularly noticeable.” Zhuanxu asked with some curiosity, “How exactly did you get up here?”
