Descend! Merlo Heavenly Court

In the vast universe, with its countless galaxies and boundless continents, an accident could happen to any continent. But this time Fu Hua didn't arrive at a continent, but at an entire galaxy.

A star field composed of countless planetary rings

The Angel Civilization is located in the center of the Angel Starfield, and its main city, the Merlo Heavenly Court, is situated at the very center of these planets.

Once again traversing the dark universe, I arrived at another portal. The same teleportation, but a different location. Crossing this path, the other side leads to the angels' capital city.

The Merlo Heavenly Court is located at the center of the surrounding planets, with countless planets orbiting around it, making it magnificent and vast. This is probably the initial feeling of everyone who sees it for the first time.

The architecture leans towards Western aesthetics, with long, winding corridors and pavilions, magnificent palaces, countless islands suspended in mid-air, and countless graceful angel warriors spreading their wings and dancing.

Forming one defensive point after another, the defenses are so tight.

Upon entering the Angel Nebula, all the angel warriors except Fu Hua stopped and watched Yan and Fu Hua leave. Perhaps they would have a conversation after they left, but now was not the time to concern themselves with that.

Walking through the long corridor, one sees rows of neatly arranged warriors on both sides, holding sharp spears, wearing bronze armor and helmets, creating an atmosphere of solemnity.

Even the usually restless Book of Cang Xuan fell silent.

Following behind Yan, they were heading to the main hall, where the Holy Kaisha held her council meetings and where Yan would be enthroned.

The corridor was very long, about five or six hundred meters long. When we arrived at the main hall, the doors were closed. The gilded silver doors were tightly shut, as if to say that we were being refused entry.

Angel Yan's expression darkened; she had already prepared for the worst.

The guards opened the door, and Fu Hua and Fu Hua stepped inside.

The door closed again after they entered, ensuring that no one could hear their conversation inside.

The main hall was huge, really huge, as wide as a football field, including the spectator stands, but at this moment the hall was completely empty.

It wasn't that no one was there. After Yan and Fu Hua entered the main hall, a gaze immediately focused on Fu Hua, filled with surprise and understanding.

The gaze was so focused that Fu Hua couldn't ignore it and looked up to meet it.

Calm, too calm, like still water.

In Fu Hua's eyes, she saw a lake, a vast and boundless lake, devoid of any human presence, desolate and lonely.

The lake's surface is like a mirror, reflecting one's true self.

The water in the lake, however, was already turbulent beneath the surface; the waves beneath the calm surface were like the worries she hid in her tranquility.

He saw through everything at a glance.

Fu Hua saw through her heart.

The clash of consciousness lasted only a moment, but Yan still sensed the subtle power struggle between Fu Hua and Hexi.

This subtle power struggle was decided in an instant.

Fu Hua's aura remained unchanged, while on the other side, Hexi's breathing became rapid for a moment, but only for a moment, and was quickly suppressed.

Restraint, extreme restraint

This also shows that Hexi herself is quite capable and has excellent control over her emotions.

As Fu Hua and Yan moved forward, Hexi also shifted her gaze from Fu Hua to Yan.

"Angel Yan"

"Heavenly Base King - Hexi"

The tension between the two was palpable from the moment they met.

Yan was originally a warrior, full of vigor, and his actions and tone were sharp and pointed, so his words naturally made people feel that he was showing his sharpness.

Hexi is different. She was once a warrior, but now she is more like a scholar, concealing her sharpness. Unlike Fu Hua's return to simplicity, she has a refined and cultured air accumulated over countless years.

If we were to make a comparison, she and Cang Xuan are the same type of people.

Even when Book of Cang Xuan first saw her, he felt a sense of déjà vu.

This is the temperament of an academic.

People from the same origin will naturally become familiar with each other.

"That's not where you should sit," Angel Yan said sternly.

Upon hearing this, Hexi looked at where she was sitting. "What, is there a thorn?"

Yan choked up immediately.

Book of Cang Xuan chuckled rather unkindly, covering his mouth with his hand to avoid laughing out loud, and then quietly nudged Fu Hua's ear.

"This guy is so cheeky."

Hexi was immediately distraught.

In the vast hall, there were only the four of them (plus Cang Xiaoxuan). Even if she spoke softly, Hexi could still hear her with her strength, not to mention Yan, who was right next to her.

Yan and Hexi both looked at Book of Cang Xuan, who was chuckling, their eyes accusing him.

Fu Hua reached out and placed her hand on the little head of the Book of Cang Xuan, rubbing it gently.

"Xiao Xuan, don't be silly."

"Oh~"

Then, she buried her face in Fu Hua's neck, her small body trembling slightly.

—We can see you're smiling.

Hexi and Yan rarely reached a consensus.

"Ahem! Yan, do you know why I'm the only one here?" Hexi decisively changed the subject.

"I don't know, and I don't need to know."

Great, the two of them got into character very quickly.

"What arrogance! Do you think you can sit on the throne of the King of Gods just because you have Kaisha's orders?"

"You want to usurp the throne?"

"Usurpation? Not really! If I wanted this position, it would be a piece of cake. But for you, getting this position won't be so simple."

Faced with Hexi's nonchalant tone, Yan had nothing to say, because it was simply the truth.

Actually, Fu Hua should have chosen to avoid this topic and not interfere in their family affairs. However, even though Fu Hua wanted to avoid it, they wouldn't let her.

"They already knew they couldn't have it, so they invited outsiders... to help them out," Hexi said meaningfully, the topic gradually shifting towards Fu Hua.

Book of Cang Xuan, who was still daydreaming about Fu Hua's neck, immediately sensed something was wrong. They were chatting peacefully, so why did the conversation suddenly turn to Fu Hua?

Although Fu Hua herself has a very strong presence.

"I'll handle my own affairs; she's Queen Kaisha's guest."

"Kaisha? I haven't seen her anywhere, let alone been her guest."

The tension between these two shouldn't be too high.

Even just looking at it from the side, you can smell the strong odor.

Fu Hua suddenly had a feeling that she had been shot for no apparent reason.

Book of Cang Xuan also had this feeling. She felt that this woman named Hexi was deliberately trying to attract the attention of her immortal. She was a woman with a deep mind.

The cunning and scheming Xi, as identified by the Book of Cang Xuan, has started another round of bloodless verbal battles with Yan. And clearly, the simple-minded Yan is completely defeated by the scheming woman.

This is from the perspective of the Book of Cang Xuan, but in Fu Hua's view, it's a completely different world.

Rather than saying Hexi was preventing Yan from ascending the throne, it would be more accurate to say she was testing Yan.

Mindset, will, faith

This can be gleaned from their underhanded struggles. Moreover, Yan is currently just a simple warrior, and she doesn't yet have the complex thoughts of a queen.

To rise from a mere warrior to the king who rules over a tribe requires far more than just superior combat skills.

"Becoming my king won't be that easy."

At this moment, Hexi, with her scholarly air, also exuded a sharpness that was no less than Yan's.

In a forest in the southwest of the Heavenly Merlo Heavenly Court, Hexi and Yan arrived one after another. They were undergoing a test, a test to become king.

Five hundred meters away, Fu Hua and Book of Cang Xuan sat on a stone bench, gazing into the distance. They might be looking at Hexi and Yan, or perhaps at something even more distant.

"Fu Hua, when do you think they'll finish?"

Book of Cang Xuan looked at Fu Hua sitting on the stone stool. The scene before him seemed to have returned to Fuyun Temple a hundred years ago, except that Fu Hua now had a more living presence than she had back then.

"Soon, they won't have time to waste here."

"You said it, oh! I understand."

If internal problems remain unresolved, how can external threats be eliminated?

The Angel Civilization was not what it was when Kaisha was still around.

With enemies all around, they don't have that much time.

Just as Fu Hua said this, the battle over there had already ended. It was indeed very fast, so fast that Book of Cang Xuan didn't even have time to complain before a figure appeared at the entrance of the woods ahead.

Azure cloak, silver armor and boots, long silver hair, azure eyes

Those eyes were as clear as Fu Hua's Fu Hua, but their color was deeper.

She came gracefully, like a butterfly in a thicket.

He casually lifted his cloak and sat down on the ground next to Fu Hua.

Fu Hua continued to gaze into the distance, her inner peace undisturbed by her arrival.

"The scenery in the Merlo Heavenly Court is quite nice," Hexi remarked, seemingly without asking any questions.

But Fu Hua still replied, "Very beautiful."

"This is a very high compliment."

"Like a fairyland, it evokes a sense of ethereal beauty."

Hexi smiled. If there were a cup of tea or wine at hand, she would definitely drink it heartily.

"How about one move?"

Using the right words for the right person is a sign of respect Hexi shows to Fu Hua, and Fu Hua deserves it in return.

"Good"

Even if Hexi didn't say anything, Fu Hua would still make a move, because she had her reasons.

"Hmm~ Fu Hua, what kind of sign language are you guys using?!" Book of Cang Xuan asked, bewildered.

I hate conversations between smart people the most; they're incomprehensible, yet incredibly intriguing.

Book of Cang Xuan didn't care how powerful Hexi was; she just kept acting cute towards Fu Hua, since none of these people could beat her immortal.

"Didn't you want to eat something?"

"That's how it is, but..."

"Then let her make you a little more later."

"She can cook~" Clearly dismissive.

Book of Cang Xuan didn't believe that this woman with impure intentions could cook; otherwise, even pigs could fly.

In this world, pigs really can fly!

"I'll make it for you later."

"Oh, okay!... Hey! Fu Hua, you can cook!?"

This is no longer just questioning, it's shocking!

Our celestial being, my celestial being can actually cook now!!

He reached out and touched the top of Book of Cang Xuan; it was soft.

I learned some things in my spare time.

"Then, I want to eat!" Book of Cang Xuan, with strength that seemed to come from nowhere, grabbed Fu Hua's arm and shook it back and forth.

Acting cute

A soft laugh suddenly came from beside him, Book of Cang Xuan immediately became wary.

"You two seem to have a good relationship. Who is she?" Hexi looked at the Book of Cang Xuan, the researcher's thoughts surfacing on the surface.

To be honest, she really wanted to study the Book of Cang Xuan properly.

Fu Hua answered "family" without hesitation, eliciting silence from both of them.

"..."

"..."

Compared to Hexi's recollections, Book of Cang Xuan understands better how heavy the meaning of the word 'family' is for Fu Hua.

Snap

A crisp sound rang in Fu Hua's ears, and her gaze followed, landing on the small hand of the Book of Cang Xuan pressed against her cheek.

Fu Hua, I'm hungry.

Fu Hua continued to stare at the hand, silently uttering, "That's no reason for you to hit me."

His gaze was somewhat deep, Book of Cang Xuan felt a little intimidated.

She softly said, "I'm your little darling."

Fu Hua, now with a little ancestor, "..."

My inner feelings are very complicated.

PS: Let's get the little darling to the main wife!

Hexi: Why do I feel like I've been fed by something?

Yan: I'm being tortured, and you guys are actually making a living!
