Heavenly Palace Flower Mansion
Nearly a hundred fairies were waiting in front of Hua Baixian's gate, most of them showing signs of impatience.
"That girl Hua Baixian, I don't know what kind of luck she had to become the Flower Goddess, does she no longer take us seriously?" Hua Xi was one of the previous generation's favorite disciples of the Flower Goddess and had a lot of prestige in the Flower Mansion. For a moment, she resented Hua Baixian's disregard.
"Hmph, it's one thing for Hua Yuxian to ignore the Hua family and join the War God Hall, but now that Hua Baixian has become the Flower Goddess, does she still want to turn a blind eye to us?" Hua Rong, who was of equal status to Hua Xi, said coldly.
"A petty person who has gained power, I don't think she has any sense of being a flower goddess at all! If anyone should be, it should be Aunt Huaxi and Aunt Huarong!" Hua Qingqing, who was about the same age as Hua Baixian and was wearing a green dress, spoke with jealousy.
Those around them nodded in agreement, and Hua Xi and Hua Rong smiled with satisfaction.
Just as everyone was discussing this, the door was suddenly pushed open, and Hua Baixian slowly walked out of the room—
Her red gauze dress was like a blooming rose, her hair was as bright as the sun, and she wore no accessories. It was simple yet alluring. Her fiery red lips and crimson eyes exuded a mature and noble temperament.
Hua Baixian looked at everyone calmly and said, "Sisters, you have been here for quite some time. Is there something important you want to discuss with me?"
“Since my sister has become the Flower Goddess, there are naturally some matters to be explained.” Upon hearing this, Hua Xi stepped forward and said coldly.
"Explain?" Hua Baixian raised an eyebrow, looking at this group of seniors with whom she had no relationship and who had even offended her before, and said calmly, "Although I did not complete the task I assigned, if there were any extra tasks, I'm afraid I wouldn't need to trouble so many of you to come and inform me personally."
He paused, then his sharp gaze swept over the crowd before he continued, "Even if you did, I don't think any of you are qualified to order me around!"
As soon as he finished speaking, everyone frowned, their expressions showing displeasure.
Seeing this, Hua Qingqing hurriedly jumped out and pointed at Hua Baixian, scolding, "What kind of attitude is this! Even though you are the Flower Goddess, you cannot be so disrespectful to your elders!"
Hua Baixian's cold gaze swept over her, and the imposing aura emanating from her eyes sent a chill down Hua Qingqing's spine, causing her to freeze in place, not daring to utter another word.
After glaring at her, Hua Baixian turned to look at the crowd and said, "Do you all think I'm some kind of Hua Baixian that you can order around?"
Upon hearing this, Hua Xi noticed the faint cherry blossom mark between Hua Baixian's brows and immediately realized that only a Flower Goddess who had obtained the true soul of the Flower Goddess would have this special mark, and also possess the memories inherited from the previous generation's Flower Goddess. This meant that Hua Baixian at this moment was also the Flower Goddess of the previous generation! At that moment, she was so frightened that she knelt on the ground and hurriedly spoke...
"Huaxi has offended you greatly, please forgive her, Flower Goddess!"
Seeing that even the most senior person present, Hua Xi, had respectfully knelt down, everyone else quickly knelt down as well.
Hua Baixian coldly looked at Hua Xi and sneered, "Hmph, forgive me? Indeed, I should forgive you!"
“I think some of you should know how the previous Flower Goddess passed away. After that, not only did they not elect a Flower Fairy with the Flower Goddess’s spiritual energy to succeed her, but they also expelled the Flower Jade Fairy, who had the Flower Goddess’s spiritual energy at the time, from the inner palace. At the same time, they transplanted Jiu Hanxin here, which slowed down my cultivation progress, even though I might have the Flower Goddess’s spiritual energy. I really want to know who did all this?”
Upon hearing Hua Baixian's question, Hua Rong, who was kneeling among them, trembled involuntarily and lowered her head, not daring to speak.
Seeing this, Hua Baixian already had her answer: "Hua Rong, are you aware of this matter?"
Hua Rong turned pale with fright. "Goddess of Flowers, this humble fairy... this humble fairy..."
Just then, a figure hurriedly arrived through the void. Upon closer inspection, it turned out to be Hua Yuxian.
Hua Yuxian was slightly taken aback when she saw Hua Baixian's unusual attire and the mark between her eyebrows. She then respectfully knelt on one knee and said, "Hua Baixian greets the Flower Goddess. The Heavenly Profound Emperor invites you."
Hua Baixian spoke coldly, "General, didn't you see that I was disciplining my servants?"
Hua Baixian's reference to the Hua family as servants enraged not only Hua Xi and the others, but even Hua Yuxian couldn't stand it anymore. She stood up and exclaimed, "Hua Baixian! What kind of spell have you been cast on?! How can you be so insolent!"
"Hahahaha... How dare you?!" Hua Baixian burst into laughter. "What they did to the previous Flower Goddess, to you, and to me—wasn't that blatantly disrespectful?"
"Not only did they watch the Flower Goddess die without offering any help, but they also used my life to force you, Hua Yuxian, to leave the Flower Mansion. Furthermore, they transplanted Jiu Hanxin into my residence, preventing me from advancing my cultivation! If I hadn't become the Flower Goddess and learned of her memories, and if the Flower Goddess's true soul hadn't been monitoring you all, how long would you have kept this a secret?" Hua Baixian said angrily. "You are all sinners, unforgivable!"
Everyone lowered their heads, not daring to speak.
Hua Yuxian sighed and said, "Xiao Bai, what happened in the past is over. Now, unknown dark forces are stirring and need your Flower Goddess power to assist us. Please put the big picture first."
Hua Baixian sneered, "Ha, the big picture? Do you know how I became the Flower Goddess?"
Hua Yuxian looked at her with a puzzled expression.
“It’s Gu Liyan!” Hua Baixian’s eyes were filled with a look of reminiscence, as if the white-robed youth was standing in front of her.
Hua Yuxian opened her mouth, never expecting it to be that alien fox demon, and for a moment she didn't know how to speak.
Hua Baixian lowered her eyes, her worry undisguised. "I wonder what price he and Emperor Tianyi paid in exchange for helping me become the Flower Goddess..."
Hua Yuxian thought for a moment and said, "Xiao Bai, you can rest assured. If that's really the case, we can ask Emperor Tianxuan to forgive him for his crime of trespassing into the Heavenly Clan."
