Mortals couldn't come up to the Nine Heavens. It was obvious that this mortal didn't come up by herself. She had been brought here by the Queen Mother and had been in the secret room all this time. However, he hadn't noticed her at all. He was the Grand Emperor of the Nine Heavens, so he should be the clearest about everything that happened in the Nine Heavens, no matter how big or small. Now that a mortal had appeared in the Nine Heavens, he was kept in the dark.
Ming Yu blinked her big eyes and felt that this middle-aged man did not look easy to get along with. She pursed her lips and did not say anything. She looked at Mother Wang worriedly and knew that she had accidentally made a sound and caused trouble.
"She is my granddaughter." Mother Wang said indifferently, not hiding Ming Yu's identity.
Granddaughter? What did that mean?
The Grand Emperor narrowed his eyes and examined Ming Yu. This girl was … Mo Rongzhan and Little Yao's daughter?
"She's … Ah Zhan's daughter?" the Grand Emperor asked again in disbelief.
Mother Wang nodded her head slightly, "That's right, she's Ah Zhan's daughter, and also your granddaughter."
"I don't have a mortal granddaughter," the Grand Emperor replied without hesitation, his tone full of disdain.
His status and bloodline were the most noble, so how could he have a mortal granddaughter? This was simply a disgrace.
A cold smile flashed across Madam Wang's eyes. "It doesn't matter if the Grand Emperor is willing to acknowledge it or not. Ming Yu is Ah Zhan's daughter."
"I didn't agree to you bringing a mortal to the nine heavens. Queen Mother of the West, you are looking down on me more and more," the Grand Emperor said coldly as he looked at Queen Mother of the West with displeasure.
"Mingyu is my granddaughter. If I want to bring her to the Nine Heavens, I will. I don't need your permission." Mother Wang replied domineeringly, "As for whether or not you want to acknowledge Ming Yu, that's your business. I don't care, and neither will Ah Zhan."
He didn't even want a son, let alone a grandson and granddaughter. None of them cared about what the Grand Emperor thought.
The Grand Emperor was so angry that he almost fell down. "You … chase her away immediately!"
"Old man, you really have no manners." Ming Yu stood behind the Queen Mother of the West and frowned as she looked at the Grand Emperor. She had already figured out the middle-aged man's identity. He should be the so-called grandfather of the Nine Heavens. However, she had long heard that the grievances from 10,000 years ago were all caused by the Grand Emperor. If it wasn't for him, her parents wouldn't have suffered so much.
He didn't want to acknowledge her because she was a mortal, and she didn't want to acknowledge him as her grandfather.
"How dare you!" The Grand Emperor was furious. This lowly mortal dared to humiliate him.
Ming Yu rolled her eyes. "You dare to be so rude to me. So what if I'm impudent to you?"
"It's really the Nine Heavens Grand Emperor!" the Grand Emperor said angrily.
"I am the Heavenly Concubine of Ning Country. All the people in the world have to kneel when they see me. No one has ever dared to be so rude." Ming Yu snorted. "You and I are on equal footing. If it weren't for my grandmother, I wouldn't have said a word to you."
The Grand Emperor was so infuriated that flames of anger rose from his chest. In all these years, no one had ever dared to be so impudent in front of him.
This lowly and ignorant mortal dared to say that she was on equal footing with him?
Equal footing?
'I knew it. A lowly race like Little Yao can't give birth to the bloodline of the divine race. You'd better leave, or I won't let you off.' The Grand Emperor told himself not to bother with such an ignorant and lowly mortal.
Ming Yu frowned. Seeing that Mother of the West had no intention of stopping her, she continued, "You are really ignorant. Haven't you heard of equality for all? You were born in the Nine Heavens, so how much nobler are you compared to us who were born in the mortal world? "
The Grand Emperor sneered. "Ignorant child."
They were of the divine race, and mortals couldn't reach them in any aspect. Mere mortals only had a lifespan of 100 years, while they were immortal. If mortals didn't want immortality, why would they spend so much effort on cultivation?
"I think you are the ignorant one." Ming Yu rolled her eyes. "We mortals have a colorful life. Even if we don't have any cultivation or spirit energy, we have invented many things with our intelligence. Can you live a happier life than us?"
Mother of the West smiled faintly. "Ming Yu, go back to the secret chamber and wait for me."
The Grand Emperor was so angry that he almost spat out blood. "This is the daughter that woman taught. You actually brought her to the Nine Heavens."
"Ming Yu is obedient and cute. I like her very much," Mother of the West said plainly. "I think Little Yao is very good too."
"Mortals are not allowed in my Nine Heavens," the Grand Emperor said coldly.
Mother of the West smiled. "Grand Emperor, you seem to have forgotten something. The Nine Heavens was divided into three territories. The dragon race has disappeared, and one-third of it belongs to the Dragon Slayer Race. Even if they were wiped out by you, I'm still alive. Even if I don't have the ability to slay them, my identity cannot be changed. I brought Ming Yu to the Nine Heavens. Who dares to chase her away and hurt her in the Nine Heavens?"
The Grand Emperor was stunned by Mother of the West's words. He and Mother of the West were a combination of two races, and they had been together for tens of thousands of years. Even when the Dragon Slayer Race was wiped out, Mother of the West didn't say a word. He thought that she was silently supporting him. If he said one thing, she wouldn't say another.
Today was the first time she dared to contradict him. She didn't even put him in her eyes.
"Do you know what you are saying?" the Grand Emperor asked word by word.
"More than ever," Mother of the West said plainly.
The Grand Emperor sized Mother of the West up. "You already knew about the sacred beast of the human continent!"
"If I knew, I wouldn't be here," Mother of the West said. If she knew that Ming Xi had a divine beast by his side, she wouldn't be in the Nine Heavens.
She would have stayed by Ming Xi's side and protected the sacred beast for him.
The Grand Emperor looked at her deeply and turned to leave angrily.
Ming Yu ran out of the secret chamber. "Grandmother, I was wrong."
"No." Mother of the West touched her head. "You are right. The Grand Emperor is too impolite."
She had suffered for tens of thousands of years, and her son had endured for so many years. She didn't want her grandchildren to suffer as well.
Let them do what they had to do.
"My goddess is of the divine race, so why does the Grand Emperor hate her?" Ming Yu asked.
Mother of the West held Ming Yu's hand and walked to the main hall. "Because your mother's mother is a mortal."
Ming Yu suddenly felt that the Grand Emperor was too senseless. Didn't she have a grandfather in the Nine Heavens?
"I didn't expect there to be a sacred beast …" Mother of the West sighed with anticipation and gratification in her eyes.
She was really happy.
"Was that the sound just now?" Ming Yu asked. "But I've never seen a sacred beast by Ming Xi's side, except for the fire phoenix."
"Let's wait for a few days." Mother of the West said that they couldn't go to the human continent immediately. Ming Yu's ability was still lacking. "Let's go find Ming Xi now."
