"And then?" Even though he admired his master, Wang Shu Shaojun was not going to let her get a smile from him anytime soon, and asked coldly.
"And then I found you," said the Holy Mother of Cloud Sky, dejected.
She lowered her head, trying to gain her disciple's sympathy with a pitiful appearance; it was truly exhausting for her.
Because Wang Shu Shaojun knew exactly how fierce his master was, a guy who would kill someone at the slightest disagreement.
She simply looked at her master and slowly asked, "So, it was also your idea to disappear back then and then guide us to join the Celestial Court?"
Although the Northern Divine Kingdom wasn't powerful, it possessed countless demonic beasts. It wasn't wrong for the Holy Mother of Cloud Sky to want to return her subjects to the Celestial Court and live a better life. Of course, her disappearance was easily understood; otherwise, if a dignified Heavenly Empress had appeared in the Celestial Court with a group of demonic beasts, Lord Wangshu would likely have felt deeply deceived. She vanished, standing far away at the top of the Celestial Court, never to be seen again by her weak subjects.
She also gave her disciples a safe path, so they could live happily ever after in such a prosperous and beautiful place as the Immortal Realm.
Instead of returning to that harsh place in the North.
She understood her master's good intentions and arrangements, but no one expected that she would dare to challenge the Heavenly Emperor.
"I just don't want you to suffer." As a master, even though she may hide some little secrets, she will definitely love her disciples in her heart. The path that the Holy Mother of Cloud Sky chose for her disciples is the most beautiful one. She even dreamed of finding an opportunity to reveal her identity in the future, and then, after hundreds or thousands of years, win back her annoyed disciples, so that the family could be reunited, right?
The Holy Mother of Clouds looked at Wang Shu Shaojun with even gentler eyes and said softly, "Some time ago, I... well, I had some disagreements with the Heavenly Emperor, and he took it out on you. It was his fault."
"Heh..." The Heavenly Emperor sneered.
“Take your anger out on the demonic beasts of the Divine Kingdom,” Wang Shu Shaojun said coldly.
"He's just putting on an act; in reality, those demonic beasts are grinding grain for him in a corner of the Celestial Court."
"Pull what?"
"Pulling the millstone," said the Holy Mother of Cloud Sky in an annoyed tone. "They make people pull the millstone every day, and the demon beasts suffer terribly, crying and full of resentment. I came back because I felt something was wrong."
Upon his return, the Heavenly Emperor angrily told his disciples that those demonic beasts were particularly lowly, and that they had all died as human shields.
Before she could react, her disciple had already turned against the Heavenly Emperor and was leading a group of demonic beasts back to the North.
Before he could react, the unlucky Immortal Emperor slapped his disciple into a spatial rift.
Yun Kong Shengmu deeply felt that menopausal old men were simply toxic!
"Where are they now?" Wang Shu Shaojun had never trusted the Heavenly Emperor's credibility, but she did trust her master. When she heard that even the Holy Mother of Cloud Sky admitted that her subjects had not died, her expression softened. This was the most important matter weighing on her mind, and once it was resolved, she immediately felt a sense of relief, and could even look up and smile at Xuanxi Heavenly Lord.
She smiled briefly, then suddenly her expression turned serious. Looking at the Heavenly Emperor's wife, she coldly asked, "Have you ever told Qingyuan about your identity?"
The Holy Mother of Clouds suddenly shivered and hurriedly said, "No."
"So, he doesn't know your identity either?" Wang Shu Shaojun felt much more satisfied.
If the Holy Mother of Cloud Sky were to treat her two disciples differently, she would definitely lose her temper.
“That child Qingyuan…” The Holy Mother of Cloud Sky thought of Immortal Lord Qingyuan, her face showing some regret, and shook her head, saying, “It is my fault for not raising him well.”
They were two disciples who grew up together, but one was fiery and intolerant of injustice, while the other was too weak and unable to distinguish right from wrong.
"Yes, you doted on him so much that you placed a restriction on my soul." Thinking of Immortal Lord Qingyuan, all of Wangshu Shaojun's old and new grudges resurfaced. She glared at the Heavenly Emperor and then at her master, thinking how this scoundrel dared to collude with the Heavenly Emperor to plot against her, and coldly said, "Aren't you just afraid I'll kill him? Can't someone like him be killed?!"
She pointed to her heart and shouted, as if to pour out all the injustice in her heart, "I can get hurt as I please, while he doesn't have to pay any price?!"
Does her strength justify her being treated unfairly?
Whose logic is this?!
She was so angry that she was trembling all over.
On that day, when she discovered that the Nameless Immortal had disappeared and that a restriction had appeared on her soul, the disappointment she felt was unbearable.
She wanted to ask her master why... he still favored that useless Qingyuan Immortal Lord who only had a pretty face.
At this moment, she roared out all the pent-up frustration in her heart, feeling an unparalleled sense of liberation and determination. However, the equally spirited female immortal opposite her was looking at her with gentle eyes. After a long while, she shook her head and said, "I have not only placed a restriction on your soul, Wang Shu, but also on his soul. The two of you cannot kill each other."
Seeing that Wang Shu Shaojun was persistent and seemed to look down on Qingyuan Xianjun, she smiled and said, "You think you are stronger than Qingyuan, but you are not as ruthless as Qingyuan."
Wang Shu Shaojun was suddenly stunned.
"He could join forces with the Heavenly Emperor to trap and kill you for a comfortable life, yet you still harbored a sliver of forbearance." The Holy Mother of Clouds gazed at the distant sea of clouds, lowering her eyes as she spoke, "I know everything. I just wanted to see what my two disciples would become after leaving me." She smiled and said gently, "Now I know. He abandoned the Jade Seal, abandoned his junior sister, and abandoned his master's life's work."
