Another Peerless Goddess, and the Women Were Used to It
Qin Feng took Willow God's hand and stepped out.
The scene before them instantly transformed, no longer the primitive and desolate Great Wilderness, but instead a temple shrouded in mist and radiant with celestial light.
The Immortal Alliance is back.
Inside the temple, the goddesses, who had been waiting for a long time, all turned their gazes toward them almost simultaneously.
Leading the group was none other than the Queen Mother of the West.
She was dressed in a magnificent palace gown, adorned with a phoenix hairpin, exuding the Empress Dowager. Yet, the moment she saw the figure beside Qin Feng, a knowing smile flickered in her eyes.
There was no scrutiny, no interrogation, and not a trace of jealousy.
She moved gracefully and was the first to come forward, naturally taking Willow God's other hand from Qin Feng.
Willow God's body stiffened slightly.
Since Nirvana, she had never had such intimate physical contact with anyone other than that man.
The hand that was held was warm and soft, carrying a reassuring warmth that slowly transmitted through the palm.
"My little sister is here. From now on, we're family."
The Queen Mother of the West's voice was gentle and dignified, like a spring breeze brushing across a frozen lake, carrying an undeniable charm.
Her gaze swept lightly over Willow God's stunningly beautiful face, her eyes revealing undisguised admiration and appreciation.
"My husband's taste is as good as ever."
A simple compliment, yet it affirmed both Willow God and Qin Feng, and further demonstrated her poise and confidence as the First Wife.
For the first time, a hint of bewilderment appeared on Willow God's face, which was usually cold and aloof, a face capable of freezing the ages.
She had lived through countless years, faced sieges by Immortal King, and resisted invasions from Foreign Domain, but she had never encountered such... direct and warm kindness.
She opened her mouth, wanting to say something, but found that her meager vocabulary couldn't find the right words to deal with the situation.
Before she could even recover from the shock...
A swift and graceful figure had already darted in front of her in a flash.
Wow! A new older sister!
The newcomer was none other than Bixiao. Her bright, lively eyes sparkled with curiosity brighter than the stars as she looked Willow God up and down without any hesitation.
"You're so beautiful! Even more aloof than that moon goddess from last time!"
Hearing this from afar, Chang'e smiled helplessly, but she wasn't angry; she just looked at her with doting eyes.
Bixiao was clearly bolder.
She extended a slender, white finger, tentatively and cautiously, and gently poked Willow God's smooth, jade-like arm.
Willow God's body stiffened for the second time.
The feeling was strange; it didn't hurt, but rather itched a little, like a faint electric current running from my arm all the way to my heart.
After poking her, Bixiao seemed unsatisfied and brought her delicate nose closer, sniffing Willow God's arm forcefully.
Wow! The new lady smells so good!
She exclaimed excitedly, as if she had discovered a new continent.
"Does it smell like willow? It smells so comforting, it makes me want to sleep!"
This series of overly familiar, even rude, actions completely shattered Willow God's psychological defenses, built up from her eternal loneliness.
An unprecedented heat shot from my neck straight to my cheeks.
A captivating blush suddenly appeared on her perpetually icy, jade-like face.
This blush, like the first lotus flower blooming atop a snow-capped mountain, instantly added a touch of earthly shyness and vibrancy to her ethereal beauty.
Are you good at fighting?
Bixiao's mind jumped around very quickly, and she had already posed the next question.
"My husband said you're Immortal King who has undergone Nirvana, that must be incredibly powerful! That's wonderful, let's have a spar sometime! Let me tell you, playing chess with my eldest and second sisters is so boring, and Nuwa is always so compassionate, I'm the only one with nothing to do, I'm practically going crazy from boredom!"
This rapid-fire rant was packed with information, not only exposing the daily life within the Immortal Alliance but also directly classifying Willow God as one of their own.
Looking at the stunning woman who once looked down upon the heavens and suppressed an era, but was now blushing and at a loss for words after being spoken by her own third sister, Nuwa, Yun Xiao, Qiong Xiao and the others couldn't help but cover their mouths and chuckle.
There was no trace of rejection or hostility in that laughter, only overflowing goodwill and welcome.
Willow God felt that her core will was somewhat overloaded.
She had considered countless possibilities.
Perhaps it's suspicion, perhaps it's exclusion, perhaps it's a war without gunfire.
After all, for any powerful man, the women around him are destined to be anything but peaceful. This is an eternal truth.
But what she was seeing completely overturned her understanding.
Not far away, Fairy Chang'e and Princess Longji stood side by side. The two equally beautiful goddesses smiled at each other, their eyes showing the same understanding and pride.
Another one.
Another top-tier goddess, capable of driving all the realms mad, was brought back by that man.
I'm used to it.
I've really gotten used to it.
Their man is the most dazzling and unique sun in all the heavens and myriad realms.
His brilliance was destined to attract all the best and most dazzling "moths".
Ordinary women might get jealous and envious over this.
But who are they?
They are Chang'e, Long Ji, the Queen Mother of the West, Nuwa, and the Three Immortal Maidens!
Each of them was once the most dazzling heroine in a certain era, in a certain myth.
Their vision and pride no longer allow them to get involved in that kind of low-level female competition.
On the contrary, the increasing number of sisters of the same level, or even those who are more outstanding than themselves, joining them does not make them feel threatened, but rather makes them feel proud.
Because this proves just how correct their initial choice was!
He was able to win the hearts of so many stunning beauties and make them live together harmoniously, like one big family.
This in itself is the man's most powerful and irreplaceable charm and proof!
Willow God slowly raised her head, her gaze sweeping over the sincere and bright smiling faces before her.
She saw the grace of the Queen Mother of the West, the compassion of Nuwa, the gentleness of Yun Xiao, the liveliness of Bixiao, the elegance of Chang'e, and the nobility of Long Ji...
Each and every one of them is so unique and so powerful.
But they also share something in common.
It's a deep-seated sense of peace, a feeling of being properly settled, a sense of happiness in finding one's final resting place.
That feeling was something she had sought for countless eras but could never obtain.
At this moment, that feeling was flowing into her long-frozen heart through hands that reached out to her, warm words of "sister," and countless unreserved hugs.
The ice is melting.
A strange yet intensely longed emotion quietly took root and sprouted deep within the core of her will.
perhaps...
This place can truly become her... home.
