Ziye stood in the middle of the hall, looking around anxiously. She was like a helpless child who suddenly heard news of her family.
"Second Sister, you must be here. Come out and meet me."
Ziye's voice was soft but firm. "When I returned to the Heavenly Palace, I realized that everything here was too familiar. No matter if it was my sisters or the other immortals, they still maintained their previous appearances. When they were sealed, they were clearly not like this. You adjusted it, didn't you?"
The surroundings were still silent.
"Tables, chairs, and the layout of the Heavenly Palace. Everything is still the same. My sister's hobbies, Big Sister plays the zither, Fourth Sister plays the flute. Only you know how to put them in their happiest state."
Ziye said slowly. She didn't know if her second sister was still there. She seemed to be talking to herself. "I secretly put my hair on the door frame. You cleaned it, right? I know it's you. If you're here, is it hard to come out and meet me?"
As soon as she finished speaking, her expression suddenly froze. Then, her body turned into purple leaves and disappeared. When she reappeared, she was on a viewing platform above the Palace of Seven Immortals.
A woman in an orange dress stood there. Two streams of tears flowed down her cold face. There was a ribbon around her dress like a tail. It fluttered in the night wind, making her look like she was going to fly away with the wind at any time.
Compared to Ziye, she was more mature and dignified, cold and elegant.
Ziye's face lit up. She said in surprise, "Second Sister!"
Second Sister looked at Ziye with doting eyes. She said softly, "Seventh Sister, you've grown up a lot. You even know how to play mind games with me."
"Second Sister, since you weren't sealed, why didn't you come and find me?" Ziye looked at Second Sister sadly. Her eyes were full of questions.
Second Sister shook her head and sighed. "Idiot, so what if we met? Also, I'm lucky enough to come to the Heavenly Palace occasionally. It's impossible for me to communicate with the outside world. I'm afraid that meeting would cause unnecessary trouble. "
Ziye continued to ask, "Where have you been living all these years?"
Second Sister hesitated for a moment and said, "Actually … I've been by Her Majesty's side."
"Her Highness is still here?" Ziye was pleasantly surprised, and then she hurriedly said, "No, that's not what I meant. What I meant was that the Empress is still alive? That's not right, I … "
"Alright, I understand what you mean."
The Second Sister shook her head and smiled. She continued, "The Empress and the Jade Emperor were the Dao Ancestor's servants back then. They were indebted to each other. Naturally, nothing could happen to them. They were just grounded."
Ziye bit her lip and said, "I saw Goddess Hou Tu. I already know a lot about the Great Tribulation. The Dao Ancestor …"
"Alright, there seems to be more to this matter. Let's not talk about it casually." Second Sister interrupted, "My original form is a daylily. Her Ladyship deliberately saved me and kept me by her side because she wanted to forget her worries. She clearly doesn't want to care about this matter."
"What secret?"
"I don't know, but I heard from the Empress that the situation of the world changed suddenly. The Dao Ancestor had no choice."
Ziye didn't dwell on this matter. Instead, she said, "Second Sister, let's think of a way together. With the Empress, it won't be long before we can restore the Heavenly Palace."
Her eyes shone, and her face was filled with excitement. Her voice contained something called hope.
"You're too naive. Easier said than done." Second Sister shook her head bitterly. She continued, "But you were able to break the seal of the Heavenly Palace. I'm really surprised. How did you do it?"
"Second Sister, do you know that the Underworld is now complete? It's all because we met an expert."
"The Underworld is complete?" Second Sister frowned. "That's really unexpected."
Ziye changed the topic. Like a child presenting a treasure to an elder, she said mysteriously, "Second Sister, if you stay by the Empress' side, do you still have any immortal peaches to eat?"
Second Sister shook her head and couldn't help but roll her eyes at Ziye. "Do you think this is the same as before? Many spiritual roots have returned to chaos. Why, are you hungry? "
Ziye's smile widened. "I often eat spiritual roots. You should be the one who's hungry."
Second Sister was speechless. "I think you eat them in your dreams every day."
"Hehehe, here, for you."
Ziye's eyes curved into crescents. Suddenly, she took out an orange and handed it to Second Sister.
"What's this? An orange?"
Second Sister raised her eyebrows. She took the orange from Ziye's hand. Then, a look of surprise appeared in her eyes. "This orange … Don't tell me it's a spiritual root?"
She peeled off the orange's skin. The orange was sparkling and translucent like jade. Its meridians weren't mixed at all, and every petal was the same size. Its appearance was far better than the fruits in the Heavenly Palace.
"Oranges can grow like this?" Second Sister felt that her knowledge had increased.
She slowly tore off a petal and elegantly put it into her mouth. She pursed her lips as she chewed.
With a light bite, the plump and juicy orange seemed to have broken its seal. Suddenly, countless juices shot out, splashing into every corner of her mouth.
A stream of golden juice silently flowed out from the corner of her mouth. However, she didn't have time to wipe it away.
This was because a sweet and sour taste had already exploded in her mouth. The wonderful taste and the sweet and sour taste stimulated her taste buds, causing her to temporarily lose her ability to think.
"This, is … really a spiritual root? And how can it be so delicious? " She widened her eyes. She didn't continue stuffing the orange into her mouth. Instead, she pursed her lips, as if she was savoring it.
Even the heavenly peaches from back then, although they were spiritual roots, in terms of taste, they were worlds apart from this orange.
To put it bluntly, she had never eaten anything so delicious in her life. It refreshed her understanding of delicacies.
Ziye had been watching from the side. Second Sister was the calmest, and her personality had always been cold and elegant. Ziye was originally hoping to see Second Sister lose her composure and record it with an Image-Recording Pearl as a dark memory in the future. However … she was a little disappointed.
However, it was enough to make Second Sister, who had always been elegant, behave like this. It was enough to show how powerful this orange was.
Second Sister hurriedly licked the orange juice from the corner of her mouth when she saw the Image-Recording Pearl in Ziye's hand. She asked cautiously, "What are you trying to do?"
"Nothing. I just suddenly wanted to see if the Image-Recording Pearl was damaged." Ziye's expression was calm as she calmly kept the Image-Recording Pearl.
Second Sister said seriously, "This orange … was given to you by the master you mentioned?"
"That's right." Ziye nodded. Then, she said excitedly, "Second Sister, that master is really super powerful. You can't imagine how powerful he is. I feel that as long as I serve him well, I can get whatever I want!"
Serve him well? Get whatever he wanted?
The way Second Sister looked at Ziye changed. "Did you get this tangerine from serving him?"
Ziye nodded.
"It's been hard on you."
Second Sister patted Ziye's head tenderly. She felt a little sad.
Although the Seven Fairies were not the Queen Mother's biological daughters, they were still adopted daughters. Once upon a time, they were unreachable Fairies. They were the synonym of beauty, elegance, and goddesses.
Now, the youngest Seventh Sister had fallen … to such a state because of an orange.
Even though … this tangerine was indeed a rare treasure.
As she thought of this, she stuffed another piece of orange into her mouth.
"Oh, right. I remember that there were two Daluo Golden Immortals guarding the Heavenly Palace. They didn't make things difficult for you, right?"
"Not only that. They even said that I was a remnant of the Heavenly Palace and wanted to capture me." Ziye continued with a smile, "But they were blown up by the master's fireworks."
Second Sister was slightly stunned. "Fireworks? What kind of Dharma treasure was that? "
Ziye opened her mouth and said, "Listen to me slowly …"
At the same time.
South Sea.
Ao Feng twisted his dragon body. He looked anxious. Soon, he swam to the Southern Sea Dragon Palace. Then, he transformed into his human form and continued to swim in.
There were many people gathered in the Dragon Palace. An old man in a black robe stood in the middle. He was having a meeting.
When he saw Ao Feng return, he smiled and asked urgently, "Feng 'er, you're back? Did things go well? "
"Eh? Where's the Elder who came with you? "
Ao Feng said with a pained expression, "Father, the situation has changed. The Elder might not be able to return."
Everyone frowned and said in disbelief, "What happened?"
Ao Feng said, "Ao Yun survived after being hit by the Dragon Devouring Vermin. This shouldn't have affected the overall situation, but … who would have thought that a few Primordial Unity Golden Immortals would intervene at the last moment. Even the eye of the sea had problems and stopped spraying water!"
The old man frowned and asked the most important question, "Did you bring back the Dragon Soul Pearl?"
Ao Feng took out the Dragon Soul Pearl and said with a smile, "I brought it back!"
"That's good." The old man smiled. Then, he sighed and said in a deep voice, "This is also my negligence. I should have sent more people. The situation has changed recently. Even the Demon Lord of the Demons is dead!"
Everyone was shocked and said in disbelief, "The Demon Lord is dead? Is … is this news accurate? "
This was a Daluo Golden Immortal. And not just any Daluo Golden Immortal. He was most likely at the peak.
"How did he die?" Someone asked in confusion.
The Southern Sea Dragon King shook his head, "The cause of death is unknown. Rumor has it that the Demon Lord was just sitting in the Demon Realm. Then, he suddenly died. Currently, the two Demon Envoys who were guarding the Demon Lord's door have been captured."
"There's actually such a way to die in this world?"
"Could it be that he couldn't take it anymore and committed suicide?"
"Other than a Sage, who else could do such a thing without anyone knowing?"
"Alright, he's dead. There's no need to talk about this anymore!" The Dragon King said solemnly, "Now that there are many unknown variables, we have to be careful in the future!"
Everyone nodded.
Ao Feng's heart skipped a beat. He said, "Father, I heard from Ao Cheng that the Dragon Clan's Patriarch is still alive. Should we be careful?"
"Heh, ridiculous!"
The Southern Sea Dragon King shook his head and sneered disdainfully, "Are you a pig? You even believe this? "
