The great world of Jambu, the southern continent, the water palace of Xiangjiang River.
The Xiang River is a large river, so the Xiang River water god is naturally not an ordinary sixth-rank water god, but a third-rank water god of the Yuan Dynasty. However, when talking about the Xiang River water god, we must mention one person, the present-day Jiangdu Guangyuan King 'Qu Yuan'.
When Qu Yuan was still on earth, he met an immortal by chance. This immortal was the 'Lord of Xiang'.
Xiang Jun had a lover, named "Lady Xiang". Of course, at that time, Lady Xiang was just a young monk who had just started, so she was not called "Lady Xiang".
Xiang Jun and Xiang Furen were very affectionate with each other, but later during the Yankang catastrophe, Xiang Jun came out of seclusion to help a close friend who was an official in the Heavenly Court and was involved in the catastrophe.
Before leaving, Xiang Jun made an agreement with Xiang Furen that he would return when the bamboo leaves by the Xiang River turned green again, and would meet at the place where they had agreed.
Every day, Lady Xiang would take a small boat to the place where she had first met Xiang Jun, waiting for him. However, Xiang Jun did not come, so she played a sad panpipe in disappointment. Later, when Xiang Jun did not come for a long time, Lady Xiang sailed north to Dongting Lake to look for him, but still could not find any sign of Xiang Jun.
Xiangjun had not returned for a long time, and Madam Xiang was extremely disappointed, and her resentment filled the Xiangjiang River. However, Madam Xiang still floated on the lake and crossed the river, looking for and waiting for Xiangjun from morning to night, but what she finally waited for was the news that Xiangjun had died in the catastrophe.
Upon hearing the news, Madam Xiang was overcome with grief. She hugged a bamboo and cried until her tears turned to blood. She died from crying and her soul drifted on the Xiang River day after day.
Later, the Heavenly Court commended Xiang Jun for his assistance to the Heavenly Court and was moved by Xiang Furen's deep affection, so they appointed her as the water god of Xiangjiang River.
Later, Qu Yuan wrote "Nine Songs: Xiang Jun" to praise their love.
This is the origin of the water god of Xiangjiang River. From then on, Lady Xiang was named "Lady Xiang" because of Xiangjun, and became the water god worshipped by all creatures on both sides of the Xiangjiang River.
At this moment, Madam Xiang was inside the Xiangjiang Water Palace, counting her Sumeru magic weapon. "Seventeen million Tribulation Jades," Madam Xiang said with a smile on her face. "When he comes back, these Tribulation Jades will be enough for him to cultivate to the Celestial Immortal realm."
The 'he' that Xiang Fu mentioned refers to the reincarnation of Xiang Jun.
Because Madam Xiang is the water god of the Xiang River and cannot leave her jurisdiction without permission, she has been unable to go out to look for the reincarnation of Xiangjun for so many years.
But she could not resign from her position as the Water God, because she needed the salary so that Xiang Jun would have the resources to return to the immortal path in his future reincarnation.
Originally, as the water deity of the Xiang River, Madam Xiang only needed to slowly accumulate resources. Once she had enough, she would resign her position and join the Lord of Xiang. However, as the great calamities came one after another, Madam Xiang remembered the calamity that had caused the Lord of Xiang's death. She feared that she would not be able to survive the next calamity.
So she couldn't wait like this any longer. After communicating with some immortals, she keenly noticed some "markets" that were not presentable, so she took a different approach and founded Xiangxiang Pavilion.
However, she left such matters to her subordinates. She herself did not ask about them or participate in them personally. She just sat there and collected the stolen jade.
But she didn't expect the catastrophe to come so suddenly. Fortunately, she survived this catastrophe. Now the three realms are stable, and there seems to be no need to rush.
"There are already so many Jieyu." Madam Xiang thought to herself, "Shouldn't I close Xiangxiang Pavilion?"
But this thought only flashed through her mind before she pushed it out. "No, since Xiangxiang Pavilion can earn so many robbery jades, then let's keep it open and try to save enough resources for him to cultivate to the Golden Immortal level."
You have to know that Madam Xiang is only at the celestial fairy level. It can only be said that her feelings for Xiang Jun have become an obsession in her heart.
Soon, Madam Xiang woke up from her fantasy of the future, and called the chief clerk of her Xiangjiang Water Palace. She took out two million calamity jades, put them in a storage bag, handed it to the chief clerk, and said, "There are two million calamity jades in here. Go and distribute them to all the demon cultivators in Xiangjiang who have helped the Water Palace during the calamity, as well as those little demons."
The chief clerk took the storage bag, bowed, and said, "Yes, Lord."
After the chief clerk left, Madam Xiang put away the Sumeru magic weapon containing the remaining 15 million Jieyu. The female cultivators who participated in the "Spirit Shadow Filming" were all doing it in the Xiangxiang Pavilion, and they would receive generous Jieyu rewards for each Spirit Shadow film, so she didn't have to worry about it.
But at this moment, the chief clerk who had just left suddenly returned in a hurry, bowed to Madam Xiang and said, "Your Majesty, a general has come to the Water Palace and said that he has an imperial edict to announce to you."
Madam Xiang was slightly surprised when she heard this, and then said, "Please come in."
The chief clerk took the order and left. Madam Xiang then said to the nun standing by, "Hurry and prepare the tea."
Soon, a tall celestial general in golden armor and a divine robe entered the hall. He fixed his gaze on Madam Xiang, raised the imperial edict in his hand, and said, "Proclaim the command of the Holy Buddha Emperor, the Douzhan Qitian, and the water gods of the Xiang River, and obey."
Upon hearing this, Madam Xiang's face darkened slightly. She immediately stood up, bowed, and said, "I, the water god of the Xiang River, obey your command."
The celestial general announced, "In compliance with the decree of the Great Su Dao Zhen Zhong Tian Dou Shu Xuan Tian Pu Hua Emperor, I order the Xiangjiang River God to ascend to heaven and present himself to the emperor immediately."
Madam Xiang's face paled. "Emperor Hongqing's decree!" At that moment, Madam Xiang's thoughts raced. She wondered why Emperor Hongqing had summoned her to heaven for an audience. Could it be that opening Xiangxiang Pavilion had violated the Heavenly Law? But that wasn't right. If that were the case, why not just send the Thunder Soldiers to capture me? Why go to all the trouble of summoning myself to heaven?
Thinking of this, Madam Xiang felt a little relieved, and then said, "The Heavenly General will wait for a moment, allowing me to prepare for a moment."
