Hearing Tianzun's questioning, Zi Guang Xianzun became anxious, but at the same time he was also completely confused.
He had intended to punish Xue Ranran and the others before, but because the matter was so serious, he did not dare to make a decision on his own and only gave them ten days.
At that time, he had clearly opened his third eye and saw that Ran Ran was not pregnant enough to interfere with the heavenly punishment. How was it possible that she was three months pregnant in just a few days?
Su Yishui watched the lightning above Ran Ran's head gradually fade away, and he could finally put his anxious heart at ease.
The rules of heaven are indeed strict, but there are ways to break them. When he married Ran Ran, the Wine Master gave him a modified brewing talisman.
The old wine-drinking immortal was addicted to wine, so he used the talisman to shorten the brewing time. Ten years of good wine could be brewed in one night.
The talisman he improved controlled the acceleration time within three months.
Of course, even with the blessing of the talisman, getting a wife pregnant also depends on the man's real ability! Su Yishui had a son right after his wedding, which was another ability that was not easy to show off!
The might of heaven was coming, and even gods and ghosts could not resist it, but Ranran was pregnant with a baby, so even the thunder from heaven had to give way.
The Holy Mother Xuantian also noticed this when she held Ranran's arm just now, so she stopped talking and stood aside waiting for the thunder to automatically disappear.
Now that there is no doubt that Ranran is three months pregnant, the natural thing to do is to unlock the sky and let her return to the world.
However, Ran Ran was pregnant and could avoid the punishment from heaven, but Su Yishui, a man, would never be pregnant, right? He had violated the rules of the human world, and this crime was difficult to escape. When Xue Ran Ran was taken away, Su Yishui would definitely be punished by the thunder from heaven.
The moment Xue Ranran undid the shackles, an external force pulled her away from the beheading platform, leaving Su Yishui alone tied to it.
Ran Ran twisted his body skillfully and managed to break free from the force. He then threw himself onto the Immortal Killing Platform again and hugged Su Yishui tightly.
Su Yishui lowered his head, and his loose black hair fell on her cheeks. He said softly: "Be good, it's too dangerous here, stand farther away, remember what I told you... don't worry about me..."
Ranran held back her tears, untied the necklace from her neck, hung it around Su Yishui's neck, and kissed him on the lips.
She knew that once she left the Immortal Slaying Platform, even though they were only a few feet apart, they would most likely be separated forever.
I don't know what kind of grievances she and he had in their previous life, but their love in this life is so rough. It's easy to fall in love, but it's so difficult to stay together...
Su Yishui was also kissing his young wife fiercely. They had only been married for a few days, but they were about to separate. If he could, he really wanted to split the world apart and overturn the sky that had set up so many obstacles...
The pair of perfect lovers cuddled together, inseparable. Although most of those present were heartless and loveless immortals, they could not help but be moved by them.
However, the Immortal-Slaying Thunder did not understand the meaning of human nature, and rolled over again, attacking Su Yishui.
At this moment, Holy Mother Xuantian made a hasty move, gently waved the white shawl draped over her arm, and pulled away Xue Ranran, who refused to leave the Immortal Execution Platform.
The moment Ran Ran was pulled away, the thunder struck again. But this time, no miracle happened, and the lightning like a thunderbolt fire dragon struck the Zhanxiantai.
When Ran Ran struggled to stand up and watched the thunder strike Su Yishui, he couldn't help but shout loudly: "Master!"
Although she had married Su Yishui, in times of crisis, out of habit, she still called him master.
However, just as he finished speaking, thunder struck, and in an instant, Su Yishui was wrapped in a flash of lightning...
When the thunder dissipated, not even a scrap of clothing was left on the Immortal-Slaying Platform.
Emperor Yuanyang, who had failed in his quest to transcend the calamities of heaven, was reduced to ashes on the Immortal Execution Platform... This scene made all the immortals present feel sad and regretful.
At this time, Xue Ranran broke free from the shawl that was twisting her, and rushed up to the immortal-killing platform like a fly. As if she was crazy, she crawled on the ground and looked around for Su Yishui's figure.
Unfortunately, there was nothing on the ground except some small pieces of glass and a chain broken into several pieces.
The man with beautiful eyebrows and eyes, lying beside her and kissing her cheek, seemed to have disappeared without leaving any trace...
The Holy Mother Xuantian seemed unable to bear to see her in this state, so she walked up to her and wanted to help her up.
But Xue Ranran suddenly shook off her hand, and lay on the ground intently, staring at the green sprouts emerging from the sacred soil...
At this time, Tianzun spoke: "Su Yishui disrupted the rules of heaven and has been executed on the spot. His previous sins have been wiped out. Xue Ranran, in a moment, the gate of heaven will be closed. You should leave quickly and return to the human world!"
After he finished speaking, the light in the surroundings gradually dimmed and everything became quiet and silent. After judging this couple in love, Tianzun left.
The other gods also dispersed. The Purple Light Immortal was originally going to stay and escort Xue Ranran back to her home. But the Holy Mother Xuantian said coldly: "I will take her back, you can go back to the cave..."
Since the Holy Mother had given such an order, Immortal Venerable Zi Guang had no choice but to obey and left politely.
The only ones left on the Immortal-Slaying Platform were Xue Ranran, who was lying on the ground, and the Holy Mother Xuantian, who was looking at her helplessly.
"Child, get up. You are a mother now, so you should take care of yourself..."
Xue Ranran didn't say anything, but with red eyes, she turned around and asked Holy Mother Xuantian: "Holy Mother, may I borrow a flower pot from you?"
The Holy Mother frowned slightly, but still waved her hand and conjured up a black gold sand plate, and handed it to Ran Ran: "This is the pot I used to plant the fairy grass in Yaochi. What do you want to do with it?"
Ran Ran did not say anything. She used her hands as a shovel to carefully move the rice-sized green seedling on the ground and the sacred soil around it into the flowerpot. Then she held the pot like a treasure and said, "Thank you, Holy Mother. I'm going back now."
The Holy Mother of Xuantian lowered her eyes and glanced at the seedling. She suddenly realized something, then she said thoughtfully: "Ranran, you have a deep fate with the immortal. If you can cut off your emotions, you will definitely have great achievements. You must not be entangled by the love between men and women and stagnate. Now the judgment of heaven is also an opportunity. You should realize that love in the world is short-lived and ultimately empty. If you can leave this seedling in the immortal world, I will take good care of it for you. In this way, you can also focus on your life and ascend to immortality as soon as possible..."
Xue Ranran shook her head firmly and said, "No, I made a promise with him, and I will never miss it again in this life. Thank you, Holy Mother, for pleading for me, but I am attached to the mundane world and cannot give up preaching. I bid farewell to Holy Mother, and we may never meet again..."
After saying this, Ran Ran protected the flower pot with her spiritual energy, held it in her arms, and walked towards the Heavenly Gate. Her seemingly frail back was firm, and she never looked back to look at the heavenly world that everyone yearned for.
Holy Mother Xuantian looked at her back as she never turned back. For a moment, tears slowly flowed from Leng's accustomed eyes.
As Ran Ran descended the ladder, the gate of heaven gradually closed. Xuan Tian Saint Mother could no longer hold back and wanted to call her, but the gate of heaven closed too quickly and her voice was ultimately blocked by the gate.
Just as she was choking with sobs, the voice of the Heavenly Master suddenly rang in her ears again: "Su Nu, she is no longer our child. Why are you so obsessed with her and unwilling to let go?"
After hearing this, the Holy Mother Xuantian turned around and said angrily, "Why not? She is the daughter I have nurtured for a thousand years, and she was almost born under the Bodhi tree! At that time, our daughter was about to bear fruit, but because that bastard Emperor Yuanyang was drunk, he pulled the fruit off the tree. He made such a mistake, but he only had to go through a tribulation in the human world to get rid of it. My thousand years of waiting turned into nothing! What did I do wrong? I couldn't even leave my only daughter in heaven! I could only follow that bastard to go to the human world to experience tribulations. But that bastard messed with my daughter again in the human world... Is he going to lead her step by step, so that she will never come back to heaven again?"
Tianzun seemed to sigh helplessly: "So, you did everything you could to lead Mu Qingge to step into the Yaochi illusion and see the heavenly book. You originally hoped that she would see the origin of the grievances between you and Su Yishui, so that she would no longer care about him and continue to cultivate immortals and ascend to heaven. It would be best if she could kill the demon disciple to prove her truth and understand a bad fate... Unfortunately, you made things worse and the more you helped, the more chaotic it became. She instead modified Su Yishui's horoscope and was willing to die in order to help him ascend immediately and no longer bear the suffering of the demon's sins. The two of them were originally going to go through a catastrophe and then return to heaven, but now they have to continue to be entangled and suffer the pain of heaven's punishment together..."
Xuan Nu stopped sobbing and said coldly, "So you already knew everything. No wonder you suddenly ordered me not to go to the human world in private and took away my Sky Mirror that I used to spy on the human world... Then why didn't you expose my shame in public, arrest me and put me on the Immortal Slashing Platform for trial, and then use the murder of my wife as a proof of my truth?"
Tianzun was silent for a while, then said quietly: "The way of heaven is clear and has its own arrangements. Now you can only watch her return to the human world with no hope of ascending. Isn't this the greatest punishment for you?"
Hearing this, Xuantian Saint Mother's long hair flew up and she screamed at Lingkong: "She was once your daughter too! Don't you feel sorry for her at all?"
Tianzun fell silent again, and finally turned into a halo of light to tightly wrap the grief-stricken Xuannv: "I turned into a formless form for the great love of all things, but how could my love for you ever diminish? Su Yishui was able to obtain the reincarnation tree back then, could it be picked up out of thin air? That reincarnation tree is the Bodhi tree you have beside the Yaochi! I moved it to the top of the Jueshan Mountain, and then turned into a dream to enlighten Su Yishui and guide Mu Qingge's soul. Extending her life is the last thing a father can do for her. But her fate as a parent is no longer in your hands. You should learn to let go. Although their marriage is not in the heavenly book, their fates are now in chaos and tightly intertwined. Although I am the Heavenly Lord, it is not easy for me to interfere. But isn't she living a good life in the human world? She is carefree and casual, just like you back then!"
Xuan Nu was enveloped by this warm light, as if she were in the arms of her former lover again. She gradually stopped feeling sad and said with a sense of loss, "Is she really okay like this?"
Unfortunately, Tianzun couldn't answer her this time.
He had been away from human love for too long and had long forgotten the ups and downs of it.
But when faced with the choice between life and death, the two children still chose each other without hesitation. Isn’t this what they think is the best choice?
After a heavenly punishment, all the grudges and karma from the previous life can be wiped out. I just hope she will never regret her choice...
Time in the human world always flies by inadvertently. In the blink of an eye, six years have passed.
The vegetation on the West Hill was even more lush and green. A little kid wearing a red bib and a ponytail was jumping around in the woods with his butt sticking out.
If someone passes by and sees this scene, he or she will definitely suspect that the ginseng in the forest has turned into a monster and transformed into a doll, wandering around and playing in the forest!
At this moment, suddenly the roar of a tiger shook the dense forest. An extremely huge tiger jumped out from the dense forest and called softly to the baby in the red bellyband.
The little kid was so scared that he sat down on the grass, crying, "Bai Bai! You are cheating! I clearly said fifty! Why did you come looking for me when I haven't even hidden it yet? It doesn't count! It doesn't count! Let's start over again!"
But before he could finish his yelling, a beautiful woman suddenly picked up the little kid and said, "I asked Baibai to come look for you. Have you finished your homework today? And you sneaked out to play when I wasn't paying attention!"
The child turned around and saw that it was his mother who came to look for him. He immediately stopped twisting his butt and puffed up his face in grievance and said, "Mom, I just want to play for a while. Can't I write again when I get home?"
Xue Ranran smiled at her naughty son, her beautiful eyes round and she said in a deliberately fierce tone, "I'm too lazy to care about you, I'm going to go to your father and file a complaint against you!"
The baby quickly shook his chubby little face and said, "No! Mommy, please don't say bad things about me to Daddy!"
But the mother was not polite at all. She held her son in her arms and walked straight towards the courtyard where she lived.
In the yard, there were various herbs planted everywhere behind the low fence. Amid the fragrance of the herbs and flowers, there was a lush tree standing in the middle of the yard like an open umbrella.
The little monkey slid down from his mother's arm like a loach, and then climbed up the tree in just a few steps with his legs and feet. On the thickest branch was a large fruit. Perhaps because they were afraid that the fruit was too big and would fall down before it was ripe, they had carefully placed a layer of net under the fruit and supported it with several poles, making it very comfortable.
The little kid climbed up the tree branch, put his face close to the big fruit, and said in a baby voice: "Daddy, I wrote a lot of big characters today, I am a little tired, so I went to play hide-and-seek with Baibai. If mother wants to spank me, you can tell her in her dreams at night to spank me gently, just use your hands, and don't use a feather bat. The feather bat that my great-grandmaster made for mother is very painful. If Shen'er gets hurt, who will help you water and weed?"
As the little kid was talking, he felt aggrieved and started sniffling and shedding tears.
Xue Ranran was angry and amused at first as she watched her son "complaining" under the tree, but when she saw his eyes turn red at the end, she suddenly felt bad.
Over the past year, as her son grew older, she took him to Uncle Yutong's home at the foot of the mountain to play several times.
After returning, the son kept asking questions, such as why the father of the children down the mountain was a person, not a big fruit? When would his father come down from the fruit? He didn't want to play hide-and-seek with Baibai anymore. He wanted to play with his father, and even more wanted to be lifted up high by his father, put on his shoulders, and buy sweets and cakes together in the market.
Ranran was always strong and optimistic in front of her son, but after hearing these words, she just quickly pressed her son's little head into her arms, and under the cover of the moonlight, tears came out of the corners of her eyes.
She sniffed, then reluctantly said to her son in a soft voice, "Soon, when Shen'er grows up, your father will naturally come down from the tree to find you..."
Little Shen'er thought his mother's voice was not right. He half raised his head and saw tears in her eyes. He quickly stood up, patted her back gently, and kissed her on the face, saying, "Mom, I don't want Daddy anymore. I have you and that's enough! Don't cry. Daddy is doing well on the tree. You don't have to wash clothes or cook for him. He just needs to drink a few buckets of water every few days... Be good, Mom, don't cry."
Ranran looked at her son's little face as he was earnestly coaxing him, and he really looked more and more like Su Yishui!
Every time she saw her son, she seemed to see her husband when he was young.
Since she returned from heaven six years ago, apart from the baby in her belly, there was only a small bean sprout-like seedling in the flower tray.
She transplanted the seedling into the courtyard, and then set up a stall next to it. Day and night, she hardly dared to close her eyes, watching over the seedling, for fear that something unexpected would happen to it.
At the beginning, when they discussed how to deal with the punishment from the heaven, they had already made a plan. Xue Ranran could escape with the help of the fetus in her belly. But Su Yishui had no choice but to endure this fatal blow.
The reincarnation tree sealed in the glass ball on Ranran's necklace is their last chance.
Su Yishui said that he was confident that he could abandon his body and lead his soul to the Reincarnation Tree when the thunder struck, so she hung the necklace with the Reincarnation Tree sealed around her neck on Su Yishui's neck.
But in that split second, any kind of accident could happen. When Ran Ran saw Su Yishui being struck by lightning and disappearing into thin air, although she had been mentally prepared, she still collapsed to the ground all of a sudden, and she didn't even know how she got all the way down from the Heavenly Gate.
And that tender sprout on the ground is all her hope.
That tree is a spiritual tree and cannot be activated by the Drunken Immortal's talisman. One can only let it absorb the essence of the sun and the moon bit by bit and slowly stimulate its growth.
Every day, as she watched the sapling grow a little taller, Ranran's heart was in suspense, because she didn't know whether Su Yishui's soul was attached to this spiritual tree at the last moment of life and death.
Could it be that the tree she guards day and night is an empty tree?
However, the tree grew much faster than ordinary trees. Until the day when the baby in her belly moved, the small tree that was originally as small as a bean sprout actually grew to Ranran's waist.
On the day when Ranran gave birth, Yutong, who helped with the delivery, went out with hot water and saw a tiny fruit on the tree, which was already more than a meter tall!
When Ranran came to the tree holding the baby in her arms, she could feel the extremely familiar aura coming from the fruit without even reaching out to touch the small fruit.
At that moment, Ranran's heart finally let go.
Su Yishui's soul has been completely received by the reincarnation tree, and they will only wait for the moment when the fruit is ripe and falls off the stalk, and then their family of three will be reunited.
She lifted the little baby with closed eyes to the tree and said softly, "Son, look, this little fruit is your father."
The baby yawned, opened his eyes with great effort, looked at the small fruit with smacking lips, and then fell asleep with a smile on his face.
Ranran knew that all she had to do next was wait patiently, waiting for the moment when the fruit fell.
But six years have passed since I waited. The fruit has grown bigger and bigger, but there is no sign of it falling off.
Ranran has now developed a habit of accompanying her son to read every day. After coaxing him to sleep, she will come under the tree and chat with the fruit about what happened every day.
Su Yishui had never told her before how he managed to survive the long years before the fruit of the Reincarnation Tree fell.
But now she finally empathized and fully understood Su Yishui's feelings at that time, a mixture of hope and anxiety, a torment of desire and fear.
She might not be as good as him, but in just six short years, she was already filled with longing for him.
Today's routine was the same. After educating the naughty Shen'er, she asked her son to go to the study to write.
Ranran had nothing to do, so she took a bucket and a ladle and watered the tree while sitting under the tree and chatting about her and her son's daily life.
"Two days ago, I brought Shen'er to the town at the foot of the mountain. In the past two years, there have been many more young men in the town. I don't know what they eat to grow up, but they all have bright spirits in their eyes and eyebrows, and they all have thick eyebrows and big eyes. I wonder if our Shen'er will grow up to be as handsome as him... If you don't come down from the tree, I'm thinking of taking in some young disciples at the foot of the mountain, teaching them, and killing some boring time. Xishan hasn't taken in new disciples for a long time..."
Ranran was talking to herself and didn't notice that after she finished speaking, the branches of the tree swayed slightly in the windless state.
"Oh, Su Yu's body couldn't hold on any longer. The method Wei Yan used to save his life was very insidious, and the backlash was severe. He probably won't live for many days. It is said that the internal strife in the court is fierce. Zhou Feihua and her father, with the help of Qin Xuanjiu and his old subordinates, set sail and left the Middle Earth. Oh. Qin Xuanjiu also came to Xishan yesterday, crying and saying that he wanted to go back to Xishan to practice. This This is the tenth time in the past six years that he has threatened to resign to practice Taoism... It seems that West Mountain will soon become very lively... That devil Wei Yan is really boring. He has not been able to get Tu Jiuyi's whereabouts from me for these years, so he actually wrote to me and asked if I need his help to find a ready-made father for our child. He is also bored when he is free, so it is a good opportunity for him to come and take care of us orphans and widows..."
