Stealing the Weaver Girl Away

Jiang Zhe had already been feeling extremely agitated, and then the Weaver Girl suddenly pressed herself against him.

The flames within him were thoroughly ignited.

He reached out and pressed a palm against the back of the Weaver Girl's head, pushing it forward. Then his other arm went around her waist, pulling her into a tight embrace!

High in the sky, a black star and a white star gradually intertwined.

And below, the two people in the courtyard intertwined like the stars in the sky.

Sunlight shone down, and Jiang Zhe opened his eyes at once. When he felt the warmth beside him, the corner of his mouth twitched. What had happened last night clearly hadn't been an illusion.

Then the system's voice rang in his ears.

"Congratulations, host! Mission complete!"

"Congratulations, host! You have received 100,000 merit and the Three Thousand Weak Water, one of the ten great divine waters."

"Three Thousand Weak Water: one of the ten great innate divine waters. Water from the Celestial River of the Nine Heavens. Suppresses, dissolves, and seals divine abilities!"

Jiang Zhe looked at the system text before him, as well as the silvery-white stream intertwined with the Samadhi True Fire within his soul talent.

He had obtained the Three Thousand Weak Water, and its power exceeded his expectations.

It sealed magical power and steadily wore away an enemy's physical body and primordial spirit. Prolonged immersion could even wear away their true spirit, scattering their soul and leaving them unable to reincarnate.

Huh!

Unable to reincarnate?

Joyful Boy, you're in luck.

Jiang Zhe recalled the problem he had encountered when killing Joyful Boy. For immortals and gods like them, their physical bodies were nothing at all.

As long as that wisp of soul and primordial spirit carrying their memories still existed, they could rely on their relationship with Ksitigarbha to reincarnate again and again, until you couldn't possibly guard against them.

But the Three Thousand Weak Water was different.

It sealed magical power, dissolved the physical body, and wore away the primordial spirit.

As long as their primordial spirit was immersed in it, once their true spirit scattered, their name would disappear from the Book of Reincarnation forever.

In other words, it would scatter your soul!

Besides that, if he happened to acquire a magical treasure, he could also use the Three Thousand Weak Water to wear away the restrictions within it.

It was countered by the Three Lights Divine Water and the Buddhist light of merit, but that wasn't much of a problem.

When it came to countering and being countered, it ultimately depended on who wielded them.

Coming back to his senses, Jiang Zhe looked at the young woman lying on top of him.

He didn't particularly regret it. In fact, he had woken up halfway through last night.

Of course, being awake was one thing, but if he had pulled out at a moment like that, would Jiang Zhe still be a man?

So he and the Weaver Girl had ascended to paradise together.

And he had to admit, it really had been blissful.

But as for the consequences afterward...

Could he bear them?

The thought gave Jiang Zhe a headache.

But she was already his woman, and Jiang Zhe himself was a bit of a male chauvinist.

So no matter how difficult the consequences were to bear, he had to bear them. Besides...

What kind of obstacles had the Cowherd and the Weaver Girl faced in his memories?

The Queen Mother had issued a decree, the Heavenly Soldiers and Generals had descended to the mortal world, and a golden hairpin had divided the Milky Way, leaving them able to meet only once a year.

But that was the Cowherd's ending, not his.

He wasn't a mortal, but a Heavenly Immortal.

And being a Heavenly Immortal was only the beginning! He had the Great Dao Armor to bolster him.

Leaving aside the Flame Dragon, which wielded the Samadhi True Fire, and the Black Rhino, which controlled the Three Thousand Weak Water,

the Five Elements power wielded by those two corresponding armors was already so terrifying.

Let alone the Emperor Armor formed by combining all five armors!

According to its setting, the Emperor was the Heavenly Dao made manifest.

So he figured the Emperor Armor and the Heavenly Dao were evenly matched.

Add the words "Great Dao" in front of it,

and the Great Dao Emperor Armor and Hongjun should be just about evenly matched too, right?

So! No one could stop him and the Weaver Girl from being together.

At that thought, Jiang Zhe felt his emotions surge and tightened the arm around the Weaver Girl.

The young woman in his embrace abruptly opened her eyes.

Pain like she was being torn apart made her eyelashes tremble. Recalling what had happened last night, the Weaver Girl froze for a moment.

Feeling a burning gaze upon her, the Weaver Girl couldn't help turning to look.

Her eyes met Jiang Zhe's.

"Yesterday..."

"Mm, yesterday we fully completed the Heaven-Ordained Romance mission." As Jiang Zhe spoke, he took the Weaver Girl's hand and nodded slightly.

"Heaven-Ordained Romance? What does that mean?" the Weaver Girl asked, somewhat bewildered.

"It means heaven destined us to be together."

"So you can understand it as me wanting to stay with you forever." Jiang Zhe reached out and held the Weaver Girl tight.

Feeling the burning heartbeat in his chest gradually quicken, the Weaver Girl's own heart inexplicably began to race.

"Will we... become husband and wife like mortals do?" the Weaver Girl couldn't help asking.

"That's right. I'll take responsibility for you," Jiang Zhe said with a slight nod.

"All right, I believe you." The Weaver Girl nodded and gently rested against Jiang Zhe's chest.

But a trace of worry flashed through her eyes.

"Don't worry. No one can stop us from being together. Ours is a Heaven-Ordained Romance."

Jiang Zhe coaxed the Weaver Girl as though he were coaxing a child.

Of course, it couldn't really be called coaxing. He was only trying to make it easier for the Weaver Girl to believe him.

"All right, then remember to come find me in the Heavenly Court soon," the Weaver Girl said, anticipation in her voice.

"Actually, if you don't want to go back, you don't have to." Jiang Zhe shook his head and rubbed the Weaver Girl's head as he spoke.

"No way. Cousin Yang Jian will be here soon. If I stay and he catches me, we'll be in trouble."

"Also, if you've become a star palace like me, there should be a talent in your destiny star too. You have to make sure you master it."

"Then you can come with me to the Heavenly Court and become a star official."

"Then we can be together every day." At this, the Weaver Girl's face filled with anticipation, as though she were imagining their future life together.

"Actually, if you're willing, we can do that now. Really, there's no need to go to the Heavenly Court. Even in the mortal world, I can protect you," Jiang Zhe said, looking earnestly into the Weaver Girl's eyes.

"I believe you, but I can't cling to you all the time. I have things of my own to do too," the Weaver Girl said with a pout.

"All right, then wait for me in the Heavenly Court." Jiang Zhe could see how determined the Weaver Girl was and didn't try to persuade her further.

"Mm-hmm. If I don't go back soon, my sister and the others will scold me to death." The Weaver Girl nodded.

Then she pushed herself up from Jiang Zhe's chest, but the sharp pain in her body made her stiffen for a moment.

Even so, she managed a difficult wave of her hand, and the starry gauze robes belonging to the Weaver Girl Star settled over her.

If not for her slightly pale face, no one would have been able to tell what had happened.

"I'm leaving. Remember to think of me. If you miss me, just look at the Weaver Girl Star."

"Besides, our stars aren't far apart. If we can, we can meet through them. We just have to be careful and make sure Sister Chang'e doesn't find out." The Weaver Girl patted Jiang Zhe's head as though comforting him.
