Nanzhanbuzhou,
The Great Tang Imperial Palace,
Just as the Great Tang emperor was enjoying a rare moment of peace in the imperial garden, a man, a woman, and a monkey suddenly descended from the sky.
"Who goes there?!"
"Protect His Majesty!"
"Someone, hurry!"
The startled guards rushed in from all directions, surrounding the three of them so tightly that not even a drop of water could get through. A few hotheads even charged in with their swords.
"Freeze!"
Xuanming didn't care. He casually uttered a single word, and in an instant, the entire imperial garden fell still.
No!
The Tang emperor, whom Xuanming had deliberately overlooked, could still move. But as he looked at the scene in the garden, his expression darkened.
"Immortal, isn't this going too far?"
"Is it?"
Xuanming raised an eyebrow and stared at the Tang emperor in surprise. "Your Majesty, has no one told you that the mortal world has changed beyond recognition?"
"Changed beyond recognition?"
The emperor furrowed his brow and looked at Xuanming in confusion. "Immortal, could you explain? How is it that I know nothing of any changes in the mortal world?"
"Then your information is out of date!"
Xuanming spread his hands, unwilling to waste time talking with the emperor. He turned to Bi Xiao beside him. "Senior Sister, when will our people arrive?"
"They're here!"
As Bi Xiao spoke, she looked up at the sky.
The next moment, the clear sky was suddenly covered by layer upon layer of dark clouds.
Looking closely—
They were, in fact, Magic Treasure Flying Boats, each tens of thousands of meters long, tearing through the void and appearing directly above the Great Tang.
"We pay our respects to Lady Bi Xiao!"
