The Jade Emperor naturally knew what the Queen Mother was thinking.

So he set up a grand formation, sealing off the inside from the outside, then told the Queen Mother about Big Black Dog, Kirin Ancestor, the food containing Great Dao Law Fragments, the Primordial World's advancement in rank, Primordial Zenith Heaven Golden Immortals, and Great Dao Sages.

Gulp!

Gulp!

As she listened to these secrets, the Queen Mother kept drawing sharp breaths and swallowing. She was already so stunned that the rivers and seas churned within her, and she collapsed unsteadily onto her phoenix throne.

Even after the Jade Emperor finished speaking, the Queen Mother could not calm her shocked yet excited heart for a long time.

Only after a long while did the Queen Mother barely regain her composure.

"Your Majesty, we must acknowledge this Father! He is our real Father! Closer than a real Father!" Queen Mother declared with forceful conviction!

This Father had to be their Father!

No one could take him away!

"He already is our real Father," the Jade Emperor said with a smile.

"Heehee, Jade Emperor, you really are blessed. You descended to the mortal world once and recognized a Father who is a hidden mighty expert, like a Great Dao Sage." The Queen Mother was delighted. If the Primordial World truly succeeded in advancing, then as Queen Mother, would she not likewise preside over all the heavens with overwhelming majesty? Would she not be the mother of all the heavens?

"It's our good fortune!"

"Hahahaha!"

The Jade Emperor and Queen Mother looked at each other and laughed heartily.

"The urgent matter is to put the Journey to the West on hold first," the Queen Mother said.

"Mm. I've already made arrangements. Tang Sanzang and his group have just reached Lion Camel Ridge, so let's hold them there for now," the Jade Emperor replied.

The Queen Mother nodded, then asked eagerly with a smile, "Then when will we go meet our Father? I'm already getting a little impatient."

"No rush. I've already told Father that I'll bring you and our daughters along. First, call back our seven daughters and make the arrangements. Then we'll quietly descend to the mortal world together."

"Alright! I'll go make the arrangements right away."

Queen Mother nodded in agreement, her heart full of anticipation for this Father who had fallen from the heavens.

What kind of existence was this Father, exactly?

Would he be easy to get along with?

The human world, outside Zhang Yifan's farmhouse courtyard.

The Jade Emperor and Queen Mother had arrived with the Seven Fairies.

Outside the wicker gate.

The Jade Emperor instructed his seven daughters, who appeared as young maidens, "Remember, your Grandpa is a reclusive mighty expert. For now, he is living as a mortal to experience life. You must not expose him, understand?"

"Understood, Father Emperor."

"Still calling me Father Emperor?"

"Understood, Father! Heeheeheehee!"

The Seven Fairies giggled together.

"Mm. Come on, let's go in."

As he spoke, the Jade Emperor pushed open the courtyard's wicker gate and shouted, "Father, your son is back! I've brought your daughter-in-law and granddaughters to see you!"

The Jade Emperor truly acted as though he had returned to his hometown. The moment he entered the courtyard, he strode toward the house.

Meanwhile, the Queen Mother and the Seven Fairies stood frozen where they were.

What was going on?

Where was their cultivation?

Where had their cultivation gone?!

Not only were the Seven Fairies utterly stunned, even the Queen Mother was repeatedly shocked.

How had her cultivation at the early Quasi-Saint realm simply vanished?

"Grandpa is amazing!" the Seven Fairies could not help exclaiming.

They had already learned from the Queen Mother's brief hints that this Grandpa was extraordinary, but only now, after experiencing it firsthand, did they truly realize just how incredible he was!

The moment they entered the courtyard, their cultivation had been stripped away, leaving them no different from mortals!

This strength was too terrifying!

Perhaps not even Dao Ancestor Hongjun could accomplish something like this.

"Your son is back?" Zhang Yifan was walking his bird in the backyard. Hearing his son's shout, he strode over as well.

"Father!" The Jade Emperor hurriedly called out when he saw Zhang Yifan, then respectfully bowed.

"Good, good, good."

Zhang Yifan patted the Jade Emperor on the shoulder, but his eyes did not look at him at all. Instead, they were fixed on the Queen Mother and the Seven Fairies as he strode toward them.

"Father, your daughter-in-law greets you." Seeing a great power like Zhang Yifan, the Queen Mother could not help feeling somewhat excited and flustered inside. She hurriedly suppressed it, dipped in a curtsy, and paid her respects.

"Hello, Grandpa!" The Seven Fairies, who looked like girls of fourteen or fifteen, hurriedly called him Grandpa as well.

"Good, good, good! Hahahaha!" Zhang Yifan was immensely pleased. He could not help looking the Queen Mother over a few more times, while continuing to study the Seven Fairies.

"Mm, my son has good taste—he married himself a fine wife! This old Zhang is truly blessed, to have Seven Beautiful Granddaughters! Hahahaha!"

Zhang Yifan laughed heartily.

His son had ventured out for twenty years. Not only had he not lost his life, but he had started a family and built a career, married a graceful and captivating woman, and fathered seven granddaughters. How could he not be happy?

What greater joy could there be in life?

"Grandpa is the handsome one!" the Eldest Fairy replied with a giggle.

"Grandpa is old now. Hahahaha!"

"Grandpa isn't old at all! You only look like you're in your forties!"

"Exactly, exactly."

One after another, the Seven Fairies crowded around Zhang Yifan, each linking arms with him and rubbing affectionately against him.

"Hahahaha! Good girls, good girls! You truly are my wonderful granddaughters! Tonight, Grandpa will show you what he can do and make you a lavish dinner!" Zhang Yifan laughed merrily at their antics.

"Yay! That's wonderful! Grandpa is amazing!"

"I love you, Grandpa! Mwah!"

The Seven Fairies jumped up excitedly, each hurrying over to kiss Zhang Yifan on the cheek.

A lavish dinner! That meant they could eat their fill!

On the way here, the Jade Emperor had told them about the dishes containing Great Dao Law Fragments!

Just eating a meal could let them break through!

How could they not be excited?

And there would be enough for everyone!

"Grandpa, what are you holding?" Second Princess Tianyang asked curiously, eagerly currying favor with him.

"Oh, this? When Grandpa gets bored, I take a bird for a stroll in the backyard. It's just a little bird your Grandpa raised." Seeing all his granddaughters staring at the birdcage in his hand, Zhang Yifan lifted it for them to see.

"I'll carry the birdcage for Grandpa." Second Princess Tianyang said.

"Alright. You girls play for now. Grandpa's going to cook for you. Just wait!" Zhang Yifan handed the birdcage in his hand to Second Princess Tianyang.

"Alright, Grandpa, you've worked hard! Tonight, your granddaughter will massage your back for you, hehehe!" Tianyang accepted the birdcage and said to Zhang Yifan with a giggle.

"Good! Hahaha!" Zhang Yifan laughed loudly, rolled up his sleeves, and headed into the kitchen.

In the courtyard.

The Seven Fairies gathered around the birdcage in Second Princess Tianyang's hands, looking it over from every angle.

"Why is this little bird golden?" the Third Princess asked curiously.

"Exactly. What a pretty little bird." The Fourth Princess leaned in as though she had discovered something rare, unable to resist reaching out to poke it.

The little bird in the cage merely looked cold and indifferent, showing no reaction at all. It even seemed slightly displeased, flapped its wings once, and hopped to another spot in the cage.

Seeing Zhang Yifan leave to cook, the Queen Mother wore a smile as well. This first meeting with her father-in-law could be considered a successful one.

At the very least, she had not left him with any bad impression.

"What are you girls looking at? Let Mother have a look." Seeing her daughters chirping around the birdcage, the Queen Mother curiously came over as well.

"Mother—ah, no, Mama, look at this bird! Its feathers are golden. It's so beautiful," Tianyang exclaimed in admiration.

"Mm, it is quite beautiful. Such a bird is rare in the Three Realms." The Queen Mother took one look and could not help praising it too.

"Mm? No, that's not right!"

But the next moment, as she stared fixedly at the little golden bird, the Queen Mother was greatly shocked.

"This... this is a Golden Crow!"

The Queen Mother cried out in alarm!

"A Golden Crow?" The Seven Fairies were all stunned.

"Wasn't there only one left in the heavens?"
