Baili He raised an eyebrow in the crowd. This girl had been missing for so long, but she had finally reappeared.
Even Ye Qingchen, who was in the main seat, was taken aback for a moment, then chuckled and said, "Fairy, Yue'er, you've come too."
Upon hearing Ye Qingchen call out to Yue'er, Ji Jiuying remained silent. Suddenly, Xianji nudged her arm.
Ji Jiuying nodded, bowed, and came to Baili He's side.
Their eyes met those of a man in a golden robe not far away, and both of them were momentarily stunned.
Ji Jiuying came to her senses, and was extremely surprised. That Buddhist disciple was actually Jin Chenzi!
Jin Chenzi's doubts also dissipated at this moment. No wonder he couldn't see through her fate when he was in the mortal world. So that's why. The two looked at each other and nodded slightly.
"Jiu'er, do you know that Buddhist monk?"
"We met a few times when we were on the Cangming Continent."
"By the way, Dad, what brings you here? Where's Mom?"
Baili He said irritably, "You have the nerve to say that? We've been married for so long and I haven't even seen a single person."
Ji Jiuying gave a trembling laugh: "I've been busy..."
"Busy with what? Busy making babies?"
······
Just as he was about to blurt it out, he met Bailihe's gaze and shut his mouth.
Seeing that she didn't speak, Baili He sighed and said helplessly, "Your mother's breakthrough to the Heavenly Venerable realm this time will take at least three years... My marriage with her has been postponed because of this."
Ji Jiuying didn't mind the wedding being postponed, since there was plenty of time for the wedding. What she was curious about was how her mother's cultivation level was about to reach the Heavenly Venerable Realm so quickly.
At this moment, Ji Jiuying remembered what Xie Huo had said before: her mother was a rare Immortal-grade Primordial Body, and when an Immortal-grade Primordial Body and someone with whom they share a deep connection become Daoist partners, that is, they cultivate together, their own cultivation will also increase rapidly.
Ji Jiuying immediately understood and didn't ask any more questions.
"Jiu'er, you still haven't told me why you came to the Heavenly Palace?"
"I've come to find the Five Elements Beads."
"The Five Elements Pearl? What do you need the Five Elements Pearl for?"
Ji Jiuying told Baili He about her plan, and Baili He looked at her in disbelief after hearing it.
"Jiu'er, have you gone mad? This matter doesn't just involve the God Realm, but also the Demon Race, the Monster Race, and the Heavenly Dao..."
"I know, I have my own ways of dealing with the demon race, the monster race, and the Heavenly Dao."
Seeing her serious expression, he realized he still didn't know her well enough. But since she was going to do this, he, as her father, naturally had to stand behind her and support her.
While the two were talking, the conference had already ended, and only Baili He, Ji Jiuying, Xianji, and Ye Qingchen remained in the main hall.
Ye Qingchen's gaze fell on Ji Jiuying, and the worry between his brows vanished. He slowly stepped down from the main seat, and his clothes and appearance instantly changed to his usual attire in the mortal realm.
"Does Xiao Jiu need something from me?"
Ji Jiuying's eyes flickered slightly, a hint of complexity vanishing in an instant, but her face remained calm and composed.
“I do have a request. I want the Five Elements Pearl of the God Clan. I know what the Five Elements Pearl represents. Qingchen, I am willing to exchange it for the power of the Goddess.”
Ye Qingchen remained silent, staring intently at her with a complex expression on his face. She actually used the power of a goddess to exchange for the Five Elements Pearl? Did she really want to leave the God Realm and escape it...?
He smiled bitterly to himself, turned his back to her, and said, "I can give you the Five Elements Pearl, but as for the Goddess's power... no one is more suitable than you."
Ji Jiuying watched his retreating figure, her thoughts swirling. How could someone who was once so close have become so familiar yet so strange?
Ji Jiuying followed Ye Qingchen to his palace. Seeing the familiar scene before her, Ji Jiuying thought of the Heavenly Emperor and the Heavenly Empress, and a touch of sadness appeared on her face.
Cause and effect, reincarnation—this is their destiny.
Ye Qingchen noticed her disappointment and stopped in his tracks: "Does Yue'er miss the Heavenly Emperor and the Heavenly Empress?"
Ji Jiuying nodded slightly, and Ye Qingchen continued, "I went to Yuxu a few days ago to check on the fates of the Heavenly Emperor and the Heavenly Empress. They have already been reincarnated, and coincidentally, they are now on the Cangming Continent."
A hint of joy flashed in Ji Jiuying's eyes. Unbeknownst to them, the two arrived at a lotus pond.
With a flick of his wrist, Ye Qingchen unleashed a beam of light from his palm, which shot straight toward the center of the lotus pond. The mist grew thicker, and golden light emanated from the pond, reaching towards the sky.
A golden bead the size of an egg flew toward Ye Qingchen, its divine power spreading in all directions. However, the departure of the Five Elements Bead caused the immortal lotus in the lotus pond to wither instantly, and Ji Jiuying was terrified by the scene before her.
"how so······"
This is the Mother Goddess's favorite celestial lotus... What on earth is she doing? Anxiety instantly welled up in my heart.
Looking at her expression, Ye Qingchen explained, "Don't worry, this is only temporary. Once the Five Elements Pearls return to their original positions, the Immortal Lotus will be restored to its original state. I believe that if the Empress were here, she wouldn't blame you."
Hearing Ye Qingchen's words, Ji Jiuying finally breathed a sigh of relief. So the Immortal Lotus was able to grow so well thanks to the power of the Five Elements Pearl; thankfully, this was only temporary…
"Qingchen, as long as the Five Elements Pearl is there, these immortal lotuses will remain, right?"
Ji Jiuying's tone carried a hint of probing. Generally speaking, the first thing a new Heavenly Emperor does upon taking office is to rebuild the Heavenly Palace. However, as the current Heavenly Emperor, there has been no change in the Heavenly Palace.
"It will always be there."
