The Water Star Lord casually dropped a bombshell.
The Heavenly Emperor was stunned on the spot.
He stared in disbelief at Si Shui Xing Jun, who was smiling at him and seemed to be watching a good show.
After a long while, the Heavenly Emperor's voice finally returned, and he asked in a low voice, "Did you get through?"
His expression carried a faint hint of ferocity and fear, as if something terrifying had filled him with extreme hatred, yet beneath it lay a deep-seated unease.
Wang Shu Shaojun had to admit that he had never seen the Heavenly Emperor with such a complex expression. Gone was the irritability and rage; his expression even inexplicably evoked a sense of pity. His bewildered look suggested that the Water Star Lord had spoken of something terrifying, and he murmured, "Who has returned?"
At this point, the Heavenly Emperor's voice became shrill.
He glared angrily at Lord Si Shui.
"Who's back?!"
"Heavenly Emperor!" Holy Mother Yunkong hurriedly grabbed the ruler of the Three Realms.
“It is a fire phoenix,” said the Water Star Lord gently.
Is he deaf? He clearly just said that.
The Heavenly Emperor seemed flustered, which shows how much pressure the person from the upper realm was putting on him.
The Heavenly Emperor's hands immediately began to tremble uncontrollably.
Wang Shu Shaojun found it extremely strange.
It's just a phoenix descending to the mortal realm to play and meet some friends. Does the Heavenly Emperor need to show such apprehension?
"Nan Chen is back too?" The Heavenly Emperor's voice was filled with fear as he asked this question.
It was as if, in the entire world, only the person he spoke of could move him.
The Water Star Lord seemed to understand his thoughts, and with a hint of pity, said calmly, "No."
The Heavenly Emperor exhaled a deep breath with a visible expression.
The Holy Mother of Clouds said with some regret, "If Nan Chen comes back, we can drink together again."
Seeing the Heavenly Emperor's terrifying expression, she quickly shut her mouth, though her gaze towards him held a hint of disapproval. However, seeing Wang Shu Shaojun's bewildered look, the Holy Mother of Cloud Sky deeply regretted that she had only taught her disciples to draw their swords and kill, without sharing any gossip about the Three Realms. Rubbing her temples, she explained to her disciples, "Nan Chen was the Southern Immortal Emperor three hundred thousand years ago. The Heavenly Emperor was very wary of her back then, but to be honest, he actually quite liked her."
Emperor Nanchen was made by the Heavenly Emperor, but later turned against him. After that, he became distant from the Celestial Court. However, the Holy Mother Yunkong had to admit that compared to those two bastards, the Eastern Celestial Emperor and the Northern Demon King, Emperor Nanchen was relatively lenient towards the Heavenly Emperor.
At least they didn't slap the Heavenly Emperor in the face in public!
"Alright, I think the Upper Realm is much more comfortable than our Immortal Realm. If you ask them to come down to the Lower Realm now, I don't think they would be willing."
Over the years, the Heavenly Emperor had finally gotten rid of those bastards who wreaked havoc on the Three Realms, and he was finally enjoying his reign. He truly didn't want them to return. Therefore, when he heard that the passage had been opened, the thought of these scoundrels returning to the Three Realms made the Heavenly Emperor want to die. However, as the Holy Mother of Clouds said, they were doing well as high gods in the Upper Realm; who would want to come back? It was just the Heavenly Emperor being unnecessarily anxious.
"Oh." It's quite an eye-opener that the Heavenly Emperor actually has a favorite immortal.
She thought the Heavenly Emperor hated everyone and everything.
She gave a vague reply, and seeing that the Holy Mother of Clouds was comforting the Heavenly Emperor, she hesitated before looking at the Water Star Lord.
It seems that this person has no secrets at all.
"The spatial rift that Ah Xuan and I entered is the location of the passage." She patted the furry heads of the crawling demon beasts, patting each one in turn, and then told her master about her adventure with satisfaction. She said gently, "That Phoenix Lord saved Ah Xuan and me; otherwise, we would have been torn apart by the spatial storm long ago." She recounted everything that happened in the spatial rift, and seeing the Heavenly Emperor looking at her with a livid face, she rolled her eyes at the supreme ruler of the Three Realms before saying impatiently, "The passage doesn't seem very sturdy anymore; it shouldn't cause too much trouble."
The fat phoenix told her to keep an eye on things, but they were just visiting relatives. Once their time was up, they would fly away, so they probably wouldn't have as many worries as the Heavenly Emperor.
"Look at this attitude!" Even the Heavenly Emperor, who was annoyed by the problem of the people from the Upper Realm, could not stand Wang Shu Shaojun's attitude.
This is a roar directed at the Holy Mother of Clouds and the Heavenly Lord of Mysterious Dawn.
The Holy Mother of Clouds looked at the sky, and the Heavenly Lord of Darkness looked at the earth; neither of them spoke.
This is clearly an act of indulgence.
A faint look of smugness appeared on Wang Shu Shaojun's face.
This expression infuriated the Heavenly Emperor.
However, at this moment, he was isolated and helpless, with only the Water Star Lord seemingly watching the show. The Heavenly Emperor pursed his lips but said nothing more.
At this moment, he was at a loss for words.
Suddenly, I feel a sense of loneliness, as if everyone has abandoned me.
Of course, His Majesty the Heavenly Emperor was unaware that his only disciple had made up his mind to bid him farewell.
"What about the phoenix?" The Holy Mother of Cloud Sky, no longer caring about the Heavenly Emperor's sorrowful mood, hurriedly asked her disciple.
Although she still harbored resentment towards her master, Wang Shu Shaojun discerned something from the urgent expression on Yun Kong Shengmu's face. She sighed softly, and under the inexplicable gaze of Si Shui Xingjun, whispered, "It's on Haoyang Mountain, beside that great demon Ying Zhao, Master..."
Although the Holy Mother of Clouds seemed indifferent to the Heavenly Emperor, she could see at this moment that in her master's heart, the Heavenly Emperor was extremely important, perhaps more important than anyone else. A strange envy suddenly arose in her heart.
