If Nan Ke's sudden appearance was an accident, then the fact that the Heavenly Princess rushed over to hug this uninvited guest now gives the gods a feeling that is more than just an accident.
"Fengguang!" The Heavenly Emperor slammed his fist on the table, already on the verge of exploding in anger. Putting aside the fact that Fengguang and Xuyu were engaged, even if she didn't have a fiancé, it was still extremely improper for her, as the eldest princess of the Heavenly Realm, to be embracing a demon in public.
Even Chenghua, who was still trying to break free from Kong Xuan's grasp, couldn't hold back her temper. She and her other sisters stared at the scenery in disbelief, seemingly still unable to process what was happening.
When Feng Guang heard her father's angry voice, she trembled. She realized that she had been too obvious and hesitated to pull away from Nan Ke's embrace, but the hand on her waist refused to let her go.
"You are the Heavenly Emperor." With a beautiful woman in his arms, Nan Ke's mood seemed to have improved considerably. Facing the person he had just wanted to kill, he smiled innocently and harmlessly.
Feng Guang quietly tugged at Nan Ke's sleeve, "Hey... that's my father, so be more polite when you speak to him."
Nan Ke paused again, and obediently became more polite, then looked at the Heavenly Emperor and said, "Father-in-law, hello."
The Heavenly Emperor crushed the armrest of his dragon throne with a single palm strike, roaring, "You monster, how dare you!"
"I wouldn't call myself brave," Nan Ke smiled slightly. "After all, I'm very afraid of Feng Guang getting angry."
“Fengguang.” This time, the Empress stood up. She frowned and said, “You are still young, and it is understandable that you were bewitched by a demon for a while. But now your father and I are here. You don’t need to be afraid. Go back to your parents and everything will be fine.”
The Empress was incredibly intelligent; she knew that Feng Guang's behavior must mean she was extremely fond of this suddenly appearing man. However, the Empress also understood that being with a demon would be far more problematic than being with a mortal.
Feng Guang was the Queen's first child, and she would never bear to see him punished by the heavenly rules.
“I…” Feng Guang understood what her mother meant, but she bit her lip and still chose to hold Nan Ke’s hand tightly. “I’m not being bewitched or threatened. I like Nan Ke and I want to be with him.”
Even Nan Ke's appearance was beyond her expectations, and even though she didn't know what Nan Ke's true identity was.
Those around gasped in surprise, but Nan Ke simply smiled gently, revealing a warm and gentle smile.
The Heavenly Emperor was furious, "Feng Guang, how can you, a princess of the Heavenly Realm, be with a demon?"
Feng Guang stubbornly said, "Nan Ke is someone I met in the mortal realm; he's not a bad person!"
Yes, he's not human, he's a demon.
“Father-in-law,” Nan Ke smiled, “you can rest assured that I will take good care of Fengguang.”
"Who's your father-in-law!" The Heavenly Emperor slammed his fist on the table in front of him, shattering it in anger.
Compared to the Heavenly Emperor's exasperation, Nan Ke remained calm and composed. "Father-in-law, you can rest assured. I have already prepared the betrothal gifts so that I can marry Feng Guang."
"Can't you understand me?!" The Heavenly Emperor was so angry he was about to go crazy.
Seeing this scene, the gods no longer felt tense. Instead, they watched as the usually majestic Heavenly Emperor was now in a state of exasperation, as if watching a show.
