After sending Di Jun and Eastern Emperor Taiyi away, Western Queen Mother led the female immortals in bowing to the Three Pure Ones and Goddess Nvwa in thanks.
Goddess Nvwa stepped forward to help Western Queen Mother up and said, "If you had not given the Yellow Center Plum Tree to Chen Xuan, would you have suffered this calamity today?"
Western Queen Mother merely smiled, then invited the Three Pure Ones and Goddess Nvwa into West Kunlun as guests.
The Three Pure Ones and Goddess Nvwa did not stand on ceremony and followed Western Queen Mother toward the main hall. Chen Xuan naturally followed behind Tongtian.
Once the guests and host had taken their seats, Western Queen Mother had tea, fruit, and pastries served. Unfortunately, West Kunlun's signature Yellow Center Plums were no longer available.
At this moment, Chen Xuan rose and said to Western Queen Mother, "Sister Western Queen Mother, from what Sister Nvwa just said, it seems the Yellow Center Plum Tree was extremely important to you?"
Western Queen Mother only smiled without speaking, giving Chen Xuan no clear answer.
Instead, Tongtian shot Chen Xuan a fierce glare. "The Yellow Center Plum Tree is the treasure of West Kunlun. As long as it remains in West Kunlun, Western Queen Mother can draw upon the power of the mountain range.
Had she received the aid of West Kunlun's mountain range today, Di Jun and Eastern Emperor Taiyi would not have been able to force Western Queen Mother into such a predicament."
Only then did Chen Xuan understand. He immediately said to Western Queen Mother, "Sister Western Queen Mother, why did you not tell me this back then?
If I had known the Yellow Center Plum Tree was so important to you, I would never have taken it away."
