Land of Qingshan

With those words, the Jade Emperor's expression changed drastically. Furious and shocked, he blurted out, "What did you say? Ziwei dares to do this!"

Before his voice even faded, a powerful aura swept out from within him.

The entire Great Luo Heaven was enveloped by this oppressive presence, and the heavens and earth trembled!

When an mortal emperor rages, blood flows for a thousand miles!

When the Heavenly Emperor is enraged, how could it be merely a river of blood!

His own daughter had become the wife of a mortal!

And that mortal was merely a servant in a landlord's estate!

If this matter were to spread, the dignified Jade Emperor would lose all face!

A daughter of the dignified Heavenly Emperor, marrying a lowly servant from the Earthly Immortal Realm!

This made the Jade Emperor furious beyond measure. He immediately spoke, "Jade Rabbit, I bestow upon you a Golden Elixir personally refined by Old Lord Laozi, to help you break through to the True Immortal realm!"

"Descend to the mortal realm immediately and apprehend the Seventh Princess!"

"As for that Dong Yong..."

The Jade Emperor took a slow breath, his eyes surging with uncontainable rage.

The Quasi-Sage pressure emanating from him spread out, causing the entire Great Luo Heaven to tremble slightly!

"I want him to perish, body and soul, never to recover!"

As soon as he finished speaking, the Jade Rabbit beside him knelt on the ground, trembling. The terrifying aura from the Jade Emperor made her heart pound with fear, and she could barely breathe.

This was the supreme ruler who commanded the Three Realms!

In this Primordial World, Sages had long since ceased to meddle in mortal affairs!

He, the Jade Emperor.

The Hao Tian Golden Palace Jade Emperor, the Great Heavenly Venerate Who Absolves Sins, had now completely unleashed his fury!

This matter could not be made public. The Jade Emperor could only entrust the task to the Jade Rabbit. If this matter were to spread, how could his dignified Jade Emperor's face be preserved!

Upon hearing the Jade Emperor's command, the Jade Rabbit quickly responded, "Your decree shall be obeyed, Great Heavenly Venerate!"

Although the Jade Rabbit was a disciple of the Lunar Goddess, in the face of the enraged Jade Emperor, she dared not show the slightest hint of defiance.

Furthermore, the Jade Emperor had just promised to bestow upon her a Golden Elixir to help her enter the True Immortal realm!

Such a benefit, she naturally would not refuse.

What's more, she had no prior connection with the Seventh Princess, so apprehending her would not carry any psychological burden.

And in the Thirty-three Heavens, above all the heavens including Great Luo Heaven.

Countless Immortals and Gods felt the terrifying aura released by the Jade Emperor, and their faces showed surprise and confusion.

What had happened to make this supreme ruler so enraged?

One had to know that the Jade Emperor had always been known for his forbearance. Even when faced with the insubordination of many divine officials, he could handle it with ease.

They had no way of knowing what truly infuriating matter the Jade Emperor was currently facing.

However, this time, they truly felt the Jade Emperor's anger, as that aura swept through the entire Thirty-three Heavens.

The entire celestial domain trembled, and countless Immortals and Gods on the rankings also felt a sense of fear.

They finally understood that this supreme ruler not only possessed majesty but also an inviolable bottom line.

In the Earthly Immortal Realm, in the land of Qingshan.

Ziwei, who was preparing to leave with Dong Yong, suddenly sensed a familiar immortal aura approaching.

Her expression tightened, and without hesitation, she cast a spell, knocking Dong Yong unconscious.

She was extremely familiar with that aura. A hint of joy then appeared on Ziwei's face.

Soon, a beam of light landed before her. The person who appeared saw Ziwei's smile and immediately became furious.

This person was the leader of the Seven Fairies—Her Highness the Eldest Princess, whose cultivation had already reached the fourth grade of the True Immortal realm!

"You can still smile! The entire Thirty-three Heavens are in turmoil because of Father Emperor's rage! I'm afraid your news has already leaked."

The Eldest Princess's expression was solemn. Her gaze fell upon Ziwei, and she immediately spoke, "Are you still not planning to return to the Heavenly Court and beg Father Emperor's forgiveness?"

Upon hearing this, a wry smile appeared on Ziwei's face, and she then said softly, "Eldest Sister, it's not that I don't want to go back, but..."

She turned to look at the unconscious Dong Yong, her voice trembling slightly, "I can't bear to leave him..."

"A mortal. I truly don't know what you're being so stubborn about. In a hundred years, he will be nothing but a handful of yellow earth, while you will remain ageless and immortal."

The Eldest Princess sighed, her words carrying earnest weight. "If you truly care for him, you should return with me to beg Father Emperor's forgiveness. Have you forgotten the fate of our aunt back then?"

After her words fell, Ziwei fell silent for a long time.

Who was the Seventh Princess's aunt?

That was the Great Heavenly Venerate's sister, Yao Ji!

Yao Ji's ending had long since spread throughout the Heavenly Court.

What is the difference between Ziwei's actions now and Yao Ji's back then?

Both descended to the mortal realm to find love, and both conceived children for mortals!

Thinking of this, Ziwei said softly, "They all say Immortals and Gods are heartless and incapable of love.

But I don't believe it. To me, Dong Yong is my true love. I just want to be with him, is that wrong?"

Upon hearing this, the Eldest Princess's expression grew complicated, and her tone carried a hint of regret. "If I had known this would happen, I shouldn't have brought you to the Earthly Immortal Realm.

Looking back now, I truly regret my past actions."

Ziwei shook her head, her tone firm. "Even if you hadn't brought me, given my personality, I would have found a way to sneak down to the mortal realm sooner or later.

The outcome might not have changed."

Seeing that she was still unwilling to turn back, the Eldest Princess's tone grew stern.

"You need to think clearly. If you return with me now and confess to Father Emperor, my sisters and I will plead for you, and Father Emperor will not harm Dong Yong's life.

But if you insist on staying, and Father Emperor sends people to fetch you, your husband Dong Yong will likely never be reincarnated."

A deep pain flashed in Ziwei's eyes upon hearing this.

How could she not know that these words were the truth? But the thought of parting with Dong Yong forever was like a knife twisting in her heart.

After a long period of contemplation, she finally made up her mind.

Taking a deep breath, Ziwei said softly, "Eldest Sister, I need you to do me a favor."

Seeing her tone soften, the Eldest Princess immediately said, "Speak."

"I want to give birth to the child."

The Eldest Princess was stunned, looking at her in disbelief, her voice trembling, "You want to give birth to the child?!"

"Didn't I tell you to sever all ties and consequences?! If you insist on giving birth, can you bear the consequences?!"

Ziwei gently shook her head and slowly replied, "This is the child of Dong Yong and me. I cannot bear to get rid of him.

Sister, if you truly want to help me, then let me give birth to him safely."

The Eldest Princess was speechless upon hearing this, and after a long while, she sighed softly, "Have you considered how much turmoil this child will face if he is truly born?"

"Wasn't the son of my aunt and a mortal a renowned general in the Heavenly Court? Why can't I bring my child into the world?"

Ziwei's gaze was firm as she looked at the Eldest Princess and continued, "I must give birth to this child. Otherwise, I will never return to the Heavenly Court with you."

Hearing this, the Eldest Princess knew Ziwei's mind was made up and could only sigh again. "I will help you block the people Father Emperor sends. You must be careful yourself."

As her voice fell, the Eldest Princess's figure flashed and disappeared from the spot, leaving Ziwei alone standing in the wind, her eyes filled with struggle and pain.

Within a deep, secluded green mountain, a Demon King's cave was hidden.
