"You bastard! You actually caused two of my demon race's Demon Sages to fall. I'll make you pay!"

Tai Yi didn't care where they were. He summoned the Chaos Bell and directly went for Shi Yu's life—no, Shi Yu was a crane, so it should be his crane life.

"T-Tai Yi, stop..."

Di Jun had just wanted to stop Tai Yi, but he was too late. The Chaos Bell had already flown out, its target none other than Shi Yu's head.

"Impudent!"

"This is my Taiyin Star, not your Sun Star!"

A furious shout rang out. A deep-blue immortal sword flew out of Guanghan Palace and appeared before Shi Yu in an instant, firmly blocking the Chaos Bell.

"Damn, what rank of spiritual treasure is that? It can actually stop the Chaos Bell?"

Shi Yu's eyes widened. A red ribbon was tied around the hilt of the immortal sword before him, fluttering despite the lack of wind.

"Um..."

"You three, stop. If you keep fighting, my master will get angry. I'm warning you~~"

"My master is terrifying when she loses her temper!"

The Fairy Maiden, dressed in an ice-blue immortal dress with a tall, graceful figure, spoke shyly and timidly. She didn't even dare look at Shi Yu and the other two as she spoke...

"Sis, that's enough. Just tell them that. We should hurry back to Guanghan Palace..."

Beside this Fairy Maiden stood another tall and graceful Fairy Maiden dressed in a pink immortal dress. Her face was just as bashful.

"Xi He and Chang Xi! Long time no see!"

Di Jun bowed to the two socially anxious Fairy Maidens. When he had first transformed on the Sun Star, he had once come to the Taiyin Star and met these two socially anxious sisters.

"Hm?"

"Two Quasi-Saints?!"

Tai Yi's brows furrowed tightly. Why did his elder brother know these two Quasi-Saints? Such powerful experts ought to serve the demon race. They would perfectly fill the vacancies among the Ten Great Demon Sages—and there could even be one more!

As for why Tai Yi didn't know Xi He and Chang Xi, it was because when Di Jun had gone to the Taiyin Star, Tai Yi had still been an egg. He hadn't even hatched yet~~

"Damn, so these are Xi He and Chang Xi? Why do they feel like two socially anxious people? No, those expressions and movements definitely mean they're socially anxious!"

Red faces, eyes darting around, looking utterly lost, fiddling with their fingers—there could only be one truth. These two sisters were socially anxious!

"No wonder I never saw these sisters when listening to the Dao at Zixiao Palace back then. So their social anxiety was to blame!"

Shi Yu was speechless. They were both Quasi-Saints, yet socially anxious. Who would believe that if he told them?

"Wait..."

"They have a master?"

"Could it be Wang Shu? Just like his Grand Martial Uncle, is she a player from the version before the Primordial World—the Chaos version? Good heavens, she's from the old era!"

Upon thinking of this, Shi Yu instinctively turned and walked away. This place was too terrifying. There might be a Chaos Demon God here.

"You—you—you're not allowed to leave! Master said that crane isn't allowed to leave! The two Golden Crows can do as they please!"

Seeing Shi Yu about to flee, timid Xi He finally worked up her courage and spoke.

"???"

For a moment, three huge question marks appeared above the heads of Shi Yu, Di Jun, and even Tai Yi, the battle maniac.

"Buzz~"

The deep-blue immortal sword flew to Xi He's side, seemingly conveying some sort of message.

"Ohhh~"

"Master said the two Golden Crows can go in too!"

Xi He murmured softly. If everyone present hadn't been cultivators, they probably wouldn't have been able to hear her.

Led by the two socially anxious Fairy Maidens' hurried footsteps, the three passed through Guanghan Palace's winding paths and arrived at its main hall.

A Fairy Maiden lay lazily on a Cloud Bed, casually sizing up Shi Yu, Tai Yi, and Di Jun.

Her appearance was cold and breathtakingly beautiful. Her skin was as pale as snow, and her eyes were deep and bright, like stars glittering in the night sky,

She wore an elegant, pale-purple robe. Its sleeves fluttered gently, and her black hair fell softly over her shoulders.

When her star-like eyes landed on Shi Yu, the water law within him manifested.

The result clearly pleased her, and she parted her lips slightly.

"I am the Taiyin Star Lord, Wang Shu!"

As soon as her voice fell, a bone-chilling cold swept over Guanghan Palace, as if announcing that she was the ruler of the Taiyin Star!

Upon hearing this, Shi Yu shuddered. Damn, she really is an old player from the same version as Grand Martial Uncle. Why did Grand Martial Uncle send me here?

Could it be because I'm handsome, and he wants me to seduce her? At that thought, Shi Yu hurriedly banished the idea from his mind.

"Di Jun!"

"You're not staying on your Sun Star. What are you doing here?"

Wang Shu looked at Di Jun and nodded. His cultivation had advanced rather quickly.

"Senior, I came here mainly for two things!"

Di Jun bowed respectfully. Based on his speculation, Wang Shu was very likely a Chaos Demon God...

"First, I'd like to ask Senior to grant me a little Essence of Taiyin Star to help me complete the Myriad Stars Array!" In truth, the second request had been added by Di Jun at the last minute.

"Second, I want to become Dao Companions with Xi He and Chang Xi! I'm a living being of the Sun Star, while the two Fairies are living beings of the Taiyin Star. We're a perfect match!"

"I'm the Demon Emperor of the Demon Court, and the two of them can become Demon Empresses. Together, we'll rule the Primordial World!"

"This will be a match made in heaven!"

Tai Yi watched his elder brother with eyes full of admiration. His big brother was incredible. He was actually willing to sacrifice himself for the demon race and obtain two Quasi-Saints for them. What a spirit of devotion!

Seeing this, Shi Yu stepped forward, intending to stop this marriage. Di Jun was being too greedy. He wanted to buy one and get one free? No way! Just as Shi Yu was about to speak,

Chang Xi and Xi He spoke at the same time.

"No!" x2

Now it was Shi Yu's turn to be dumbfounded. Had the Primordial World's script gone off track?

"Sis, we've only met him twice. How could we possibly become his Dao Companions?"

"That's right, Little Sister. Master said that a marriage without love is torture!"

The socially anxious sisters weren't socially anxious anymore. The two Fairies put their hands on their hips, pouted, and looked pitifully at their master, Wang Shu.

"Don't look at me like that. I naturally won't agree!"

Wang Shu spoke slowly. A faint blue light flew from her hand and severed the marriage threads above Xi He and Chang Xi's heads.

"As compensation, take some branches from the Moon Laurel Tree. Consider it compensation from me."

Wang Shu was unwilling to let her two disciples become Dao Companions with Di Jun. She could see that Di Jun's forehead was dark with misfortune, and he wouldn't live for many epochs. Since that was the case, there was no need~

"Very well, then. Thank you, Senior!"

Di Jun let out a long breath of relief and turned to leave Guanghan Palace. He hadn't held out much hope for the second matter in the first place. From the beginning, he had come for the Essence of Taiyin Star.

Wang Shu would certainly reject the second matter, which would greatly increase the chances of her agreeing to the first. This was the principle of choosing the greater gain between two options.

"All right, your turn. What are you doing here?"

Wang Shu smiled lightly and spoke gently to Shi Yu, as though they had been old friends for many years.

"Ah~"

"I'll presume to call you Grand Martial Uncle, Senior!"

"Grand Martial Uncle!"

"My Grand Martial Uncle sent me here. He told me in a dream that the Taiyin Star was a place I absolutely had to visit~"

Shi Yu didn't dare lie to Wang Shu. What if she discovered that he was spouting nonsense and planted him on the Taiyin Star as a carrot to feed the Jade Rabbits later...

"Grand Martial Uncle..."

Upon hearing this, Wang Shu's brows furrowed tightly. Her long, fair fingers gently tapped against the table,

This caused Xi He and Chang Xi to instinctively hug each other. Master always did this before losing her temper. This Little White Crane was doomed!

"Would calling me that make me seem too old?"

"Why don't you call me Sister instead..."

When Wang Shu said this, not only was Shi Yu stunned, even the two socially anxious sisters beside him were dumbfounded. Master didn't used to be like this...

"Call you Sister? The seniority seems a little messed up."

Shi Yu's entire body jolted, and his heart trembled. But he didn't dare object and could only grit his teeth and agree.

"All right, Wang Shu... Sister..."

"Since your Grand Martial Uncle sent you here, he must have had his reasons. However, the Taiyin Star isn't a place one can visit casually. If you want to come next time, call for me, and I'll have the two of them come pick you up!"

Wang Shu nodded in satisfaction. She extended her slender finger toward the stunned Xi He and Chang Xi. At that moment, the two of them looked rather like foolish beauties.

"Master... she's... become... unfamiliar!"
