The two women were very young and looked to be around seventeen or eighteen years old. Their figures and appearances were ethereal and beautiful. Coupled with the faint fragrance that occasionally flowed into the nostrils from their bodies, it made one feel intoxicated.
Fortunately, Sei Itō's will was firm enough, so he was not affected by their beauty.
"As expected of an immortal that even Emperor Father thinks highly of. What a high state of mind." The Heavenly Princess, who was the first to walk into the room, was in a yellow robe and a golden headband. She had two buns on her head, and she was the first to walk into the room.
"Heavenly Princess greets Chen Daoist." The Heavenly Princess bowed to Sei Itō who was standing in front of the window.
"No need to be so polite." Sei Itō waved his hand. Then he asked softly, "Has Emperor Heaven left?"
"Yes, Emperor Father has already transcended his tribulation." Hearing this, the Heavenly Princess's eyes reddened as she recalled her sad past.
"Princess." The pretty woman beside her called out softly.
"Please restrain your grief. With Emperor Heaven's strength, I believe he will soon be able to break free from his primordial spirit's shackles and reawaken his past. He will then be able to reunite with Heavenly Princess." Sei Itō comforted.
"I hope so." The Heavenly Princess wiped her tears and said softly.
"Did Emperor Heaven leave any instructions before he left?" Seeing this, Sei Itō could only use his great method of changing the topic and asked.
"He did tell Heavenly Princess something." Sure enough, the sadness on the Heavenly Princess's face lightened and she said softly.
"Oh?" Sei Itō raised his eyebrows and let out a sound of doubt.
"Emperor Father said that if Daoist is willing, you can go to his study and read all the books in his room." The Heavenly Princess replied.
"Hmm?" The Heavenly Princess had just finished speaking. Sei Itō's face immediately showed a stunned expression.
According to his original plan, Emperor Heaven would probably let the Heavenly Princess ask him for his body back. Then he would instruct her where to place the body, how to place it, and so on to seal the Heavenly Demon's primordial spirit forever. He wanted it to be unable to escape and possess someone else to wreak havoc in the world. Who would have thought that the Celestial Emperor didn't even mention it? Instead, he gave it a great benefit that it couldn't refuse!
Because what he coveted in the Immortal Realm, apart from the environment here that could connect to the Immortal Realm, was the large number of immortal arts and secret collections of this world stored in the Celestial Emperor's study. As for the Fairy, it was just a matter of convenience. If she succeeded, he would naturally be happy, but if she didn't, he wouldn't have any regrets. After all, her father had left behind a prophecy that 'Concubine is fated with the heavens and can be entrusted with the rest of her life'. Sei Itō was not confident that he could change the Heavenly Maiden's fixed thoughts and make her focus on him.
"Is this out of trust for me? Or does he think that even in the Immortal Domain, the Heavenly Demon will still have a chance to escape and is afraid of harming the Heavenly Maiden, so he directly threw this hot potato to me? "Sei Itō thought maliciously.
After all, no matter what, the two of them had only been together for less than an hour, and the only thing they had done was to seal the Heavenly Demon's original soul together. Other than that, the Celestial Emperor's understanding of him was only that 'his magical power was strong and that he was the successor of Nuwa'. Sei Itō really found it hard to believe that the Celestial Emperor, who was so shrewd, would give him such a great gift so easily.
Of course. He couldn't rule out the possibility that the Celestial Emperor was an honest person. Although, this seemed very unlikely …
"Or perhaps, during the tribulation, he suddenly had a clear mind. In the dark, he fused with the Heavenly Dao of this world and felt something from it. That's why he gave me such a great gift as a Fairy. For the future, or even for other things? "Sei Itō secretly guessed in his heart.
"Then, thank you for your kindness, Celestial Emperor. I can't thank you enough." But thinking about it was just thinking, Sei Itō accepted this gift without hesitation and cupped his fists in gratitude.
"Daoist Priest, there's no need to be so polite. Earlier, Father said that if it weren't for Daoist Priest, who knows when he would be able to escape from the tribulation. Here, I thank you on behalf of my father, Daoist Priest." The Fairy bowed to Sei Itō and thanked him.
At the side, the pretty woman also bowed at the same time.
"You're too polite, Fairy. Didn't the Celestial Emperor already reward me?" Sei Itō smiled.
The Fairy straightened up and asked, "Daoist Priest, when do you plan to go?"
"Let's go now," Sei Itō said.
"Alright, please follow me, Daoist Priest." The Fairy turned to the side and spread her arms in an inviting gesture.
Sei Itō smiled and nodded, then walked out of the room with the Fairy and the pretty woman to the side. They walked toward the Celestial Emperor's study.
On the way, Sei Itō suddenly remembered something and said, "Oh, right."
Hearing the voice, the Fairy turned her head and looked at Sei Itō with a puzzled expression.
"I'm not an official Daoist. I'm just a layman who received a Daoist inheritance, so Fairy shouldn't call me Daoist Priest in the future. Just call me Chen Xicheng." Sei Itō explained with a smile.
"Then … Alright." The Fairy hesitated for a moment, then agreed. "Mr. Chen."
However, in the end, she didn't call him by his name. Instead, she used the honorific "Mr. Chen."
In this regard, Ito Sei did not insist and agreed with a chuckle.
After walking for a while, Sei Itō, the Fairy, and her pretty maid arrived at the Celestial Emperor's study.
The study room was rectangular in shape, with a width and length of about six meters and ten meters respectively. The floor was paved with square marble bricks. Other than one wall that was empty due to the window, there was a large bookshelf in front of the other three walls. Rolls of bamboo slips and silk books, as well as books made of animal skin and animal bones were placed on the shelves. Other than that, there was nothing else in the entire room. It was truly a 'study room'!
"Do as you please, Sir. If you need anything, just call Sister Wa. She will help you," the Fairy said.
"Nuwa greets Sir." The pretty maid bowed slightly to Sei Itō. But that name … really made Sei Itō speechless.
"Nuwa …"
"What's wrong?" The Fairy, who was already used to Nuwa's name, looked at Sei Itō curiously.
"It's nothing. It's just that this name reminds me of the Great Goddess Nuwa." Itō Sei shook his head, and then carefully looked at Nuwa in front of him for a while. When Nuwa was a little embarrassed and blushed, Itō Sei said again, "But you look quite similar. You have some eyebrows of Nuwa."
"Sir, you've met the Great Goddess Nuwa?"
"Didn't the Celestial Emperor tell you that I also cultivate the Book of the Chaos?" Sei Itō asked with interest. The Fairy's face lit up. Clearly, she had heard about it from the Celestial Emperor.
"That was when I met Nuwa," Sei Itō said with a smile. At the same time, he thought to himself, Looks like the Celestial Emperor really did tell a lot about me.
"No wonder I instinctively felt a sense of familiarity when I saw Sir. It's as if I've found a companion," Nuwa said with a smile.
"Since you want to please me so much, you can stay in the study. I'll guide you on the cultivation of the Book of the Chaos and try to help you break through your current level and enter a higher level," Sei Itō said with a smile.
"Thank you, Sir!" Nuwa said with surprise.
After that, Ito Sei chatted with Goddess and Nuwa for a while, then watched them leave. He slowly walked to the bookshelf, then took out a roll of bamboo slips from the bookshelf, and began to read it.
Fortunately, Sei Itō had learned golden patterns, inscriptions, oracle bone inscriptions, and so on. Otherwise, he wouldn't have been able to understand the 'scribbles' on the scroll.
After a while, Nvywa returned to the study room after sending the angel away. However, after seeing Ito Sei reading a book, she didn't disturb him. She stayed quietly at the side, silently lost in thought. No one knew what she was thinking.
Similarly, seeing that Nuwa didn't disturb him, Sei Itō ignored her. He continued to flip through and study the book in his hand while transmitting the contents of the book back to the Shadow Clone in the Rubik's Cube world through his mind. Then, he organized the book into a book and placed it in the library's secret library and magic quantum computer in physical and electronic forms. He would wait for the right time to release it.
While he was reading seriously and in a daze, night came in the blink of an eye.
At this time, Nuwa finally remembered her responsibility. She stood up quietly and left the room again. It wasn't until ten minutes later that she returned to the study with a large wooden tray with several kinds of food on it.
"Sir, take a rest first," Nuwa called out.
"Click ~ Click ~"
Hearing this, Sei Itō twisted his stiff neck, put down the book in his hand, and looked at Nuwa with a chuckle. "Okay."
Nuwa walked to the open space in the middle of the study, put the tray in her hand on the ground, picked up the chopsticks on the tray, and handed them to Sei Itō.
"Thank you."
Sei Itō reached out and took it, then sat down cross-legged beside the tray.
"Why aren't you eating?" Sei Itō looked at Nuwa who was kneeling opposite him and asked in surprise.
"This is sir's. I will eat after sir finishes eating." Nuwa smiled.
"I don't have so many rules. Next time, you don't have to do this. Just bring everything over and eat together." Sei Itō said lightly.
"This …" Nuwa looked a little hesitant.
"Just do as I say."
After saying that, he ignored Nuwa and lowered his head to enjoy the food on the tray. Needless to say, the taste and texture of the food in the Immortal Domain were different from that of the mortal world. In terms of taste, it was not inferior to that of the Song and Yuan Dynasties. Although it was still not comparable to the dishes of the later generations that had become incomparably delicious after the Ming and Qing Dynasties, it was a million times better than the food in the mortal world.
In this way, Sei Itō ate a delicious meal in this era, which was rare for him.
After Nuwa left and returned, Sei Itō, who was leisurely and digesting his food, suddenly said to Nuwa, "Since I have time now, let me guide your Book of the Chaos."
