Chapter 1 — Tu Lien Ky

Seventy thousand years of following Emperor Quan, all over the Immortal World implicitly understand the relationship between me and people. However, recently, rumors suddenly spread throughout Heaven that Emperor Quan was about to marry Tan Thien Hau. I came to you, just wanted to ask why. When stepping onto Huyen Ngoc Dai, the sound of the conversation between him and the War God clearly entered his ears: "Is the story of Emperor Quan wanting to marry my sister, has Fairy Thanh Dao heard about it yet?" Emperor Quan laughed softly, coldly and indifferently like a breeze: "Just an incompetent maid who refuses to fight, what's the importance!" My feet suddenly took half a step back, my whole heart was empty. It turns out... in people's hearts, I am inherently that low. The corners of his lips curled up into a faint smile, both bitter and self-mocking. I turned around and walked straight to Nguyet Lao. "Nguyet Lao... Thanh Dao is willing to descend to earth and accept the marriage service!" Nguyet Lao looked at me, his eyes filled with sadness, and let out a long sigh filled with sadness: "You... should have thought this through earlier." "What level is the Emperor? The one who wants to marry the Thien Empress, of course has a noble status, a revered position. And you... are just a small fairy, who has exhausted tens of thousands of years of spring flowers for a few love words..." "That's okay... Now that I've awakened, it's not too late." Isn't it late? On the way back to Dao Tri Cung, every step was like stepping on clouds, my heart was empty and chaotic. I was originally the last purple lotus flower of the Purple Lotus clan, once brought into the Heavenly Palace by Emperor Hao Thien Trach and accepted as a little fairy with the lowest magic power. My natural talent is high, I have only practiced for seven thousand years and have reached the peak level, only one step away from breaking the cocoon and turning into a dragon. According to the rules of the Heavenly Palace, if you want to attain enlightenment and become a High Immortal, you must descend to the mortal world and undergo a lifetime of love and life and death, thoroughly understanding the sadness and joy of separation from the human world, before you can break through the realm. But Thien Trach said... he can't stay away from me, won't let me descend to earth, and won't let me touch any other man. For the first time, my mind vibrated. For the first time, I tasted the aftertaste of love. I foolishly believed him. I stayed by his side, willing to be his shadow, the string of fate that willingly wound around him. Seven thousand years. I have spent the entire seventy thousand years of spring and jade, staying by his side, because of him, I stopped my morality, because of him I stopped practicing, because of him I missed the opportunity to become a High Immortal. Yet at the end... the person who once hugged me, kissed me, and linked fate with me, uttered one sentence: "Just an incompetent maid... what's so important." In front of Thanh Ngo Vien, I stood silently for a long time. The palace door was tightly closed, silent and silent. I raised my hand, wanted to knock, wanted to step in, wanted to ask him "why". But the arm raised in mid-air, finally drooped down. I smiled, extremely tired, even the strength to push the door open... was gone. I sat on the steps in front of the door, the sunset rays from the Golden Umbrella fell on me, coating every inch of my clothes with a layer of pale yellow, but not bringing any warmth. When Kim O was about to lower the price, Thien Trach slowly walked forward. Seeing me sitting on the steps, he smiled, bent down, and gently touched my forehead with his fingertips: "Sitting here... are you waiting for me?" He has never called himself "lord" in front of me. In the past, I naively thought that that was why he treated me differently than others. Because of that, I became conceited and thought that I was the only one in his heart. But listening again today... it all seems fake. I shook my head slightly, my eyes pierced his shoulder, looking towards the end of the horizon, where the last streak of light was about to extinguish. “I was just… watching the sunset.” He doesn't believe it. Just as I was about to stand up, Thien Trach suddenly put his arm around my waist, picking me up as easily as hugging a willow branch. “Hard mouth.” "I've only been gone for half a day, but I've made you worry and miss me this much? You can't leave me for even a moment?" I remained silent, looking at his face close at hand. Those eyes once moved my heart, once made me willing to give up morality, miss reincarnation... But now, my heart only feels cold. How… is that possible? In five days, I will descend to the mortal world, get married, and experience a lifetime of love that is countless years long. If I wasn't worried that he would try to stop me again, I would have wanted to say goodbye honestly. However — The door to the room was kicked open by him. He hugged me, gently placed me on the bed, bent down, his lips close, wanting to kiss. The instinct to resist made me reflexively push him away. After struggling for a moment, a piece of purple silk scarf fell from his chest. Thien Trach was stunned and quickly wanted to pick it up, but I was one step faster and grabbed it in my hand. It is a scarf embroidered with delicate orchids, the corner of the scarf is skillfully embroidered with the word "Snow" using seven-colored rattan silk. Can Tuyet Du - the younger sister of the God of War, is also the future Empress that the heavens are rumored to be. The corners of my lips curled slightly, smiling without smiling, my eyes drooping, my voice as light as the fading wind: "It turns out... Di Quan really wants to marry her." Thien Trach's expression changed slightly, he snatched the silk scarf from my hand, threw it hard at the end of the bed, his voice hastily and low: "It's not what you think, Thanh Dao!" "Marrying her... is just a matter of choice! My heart... from beginning to end, has never changed." “In my heart, from now on… there is only you.” I looked at him, my eyes blurred between layers of light and darkness, but my chest was cold to the bone. If this is true, why does he have someone else's embroidered scarf in his sleeve? If this statement is false, then over the past seventy thousand years... why did I willingly abandon my entire predestined life? In that moment, my heart suddenly became calm like a dead lake, with no more ripples. He carefully lifted my hand and placed it on his left chest, where his heart was beating chaotically, his voice was hoarse and trembling: "Thanh Dao... believe me!" I gently withdrew my hand, my fingertips slid across his eyebrows, along his long eyebrows down to the corners of his eyes. {Read full on page Nguyet Hoa Cac} His face showed a deep and sad expression. I smiled, curled my lips slightly, my voice was as soft as before, as if there was still a hint of gentleness: "Of course I trust the Emperor." "I'm just... a little sad. I'm sad because... the person standing next to Emperor Quan, sharing the same happiness... is not me." His eyelashes trembled slightly, the corners of his eyes were tinged with red. He suddenly pulled my hand hard, hugging me to his chest, squeezing me so tightly that he almost wanted to blend me into his flesh and blood. “I know… I know… everything you did for me.” “Thanh Dao, Thien Trach swears, forever and ever... he will never betray her! I also wrapped my arms around him, but the corners of my lips curled slightly, the smile hidden in the darkness filled with self-mockery, bitterness and coldness. Don't betray me, Hao Thien Trach? But… you have failed me. You once said you would marry me to become Queen. You once swore and engraved the word "Thanh Dao" deep into your heart. But… you broke your oath first. That's it... I won't need you anymore. At dawn, the new sunlight spread a pale yellow layer on Dao Tri Cung, but my face was haggard, my eyes were dark circles from a sleepless night. Seeing this, Thien Trach thought I was sad because of the marriage, so he took my hand and softly said: "Thanh Dao, today... let me take you for a walk. Go out for a bit… maybe she will feel more comfortable.” I pursed my lips and nodded slightly. But in the bottom of my eyes, what's left... is just ashes. In the north of Heaven, there is a vast plain, with flowers blooming brilliantly, with five lights and ten colors, thousands of scents blooming, thousands of blooming flowers, like a brocade painting of a fairyland. This is the first time we set foot here. Amidst the magical scenery, my already heavy emotions suddenly eased somewhat. We walked along the path covered with flowers, each flower blooming under the brilliant golden light. Thien Trach leisurely walked behind him, with a leisurely demeanor, as if he were walking around in the mortal world, as if nothing in this world bothered him. It wasn't until we reached a majestic waterfall, with the sound of pouring water resounding, that Thien Trach reached out, grabbed my wrist, and gently pulled me to a stop. “Don't go any further.” I raised my head and looked in the direction he said, only to discover that at the foot of the waterfall was a deep abyss. The white water curtain stretched like thin silk, covering the bottom of the dim abyss. On the opposite side of the abyss, a dreamlike scene like a mirage slowly opened before our eyes. In the forest of fairy trees, jade vines wrap around the branches, the faint scent of spiritual energy pervades each breath. Inside, flocks of seven-colored antlers ran around, five-colored birds soared into the clouds, their wings swept through the light, breaking out hundreds of sparkling pearls. Under the blue lake, each golden-colored fish jumped out of the water, the fish scales sparkled like gold, making the lake surface reflect into thousands of shimmering streaks of light. They live there, freely, free from all constraints, leisurely and happy... like something we have never had. “Where is that?” I couldn't help myself and blurted out the question. Hearing that, Thien Trach just smiled faintly. He took a step forward, put his hand around my shoulder, then slowly turned me around to face him. That smile was as gentle as the spring breeze, but the eyes as deep as the abyss did not reveal a single ray of light. “That place… is just an unknown land.” Thien Trach's voice was low and deep, his eyes looking towards the deep abyss: "The beautiful scenes you see... are just illusions." He tilted his head, looked straight into my eyes, his voice was serious, carrying three parts warning, seven parts protection: "Thanh Dao, you must remember... absolutely never try to fly over there." “Because with her current magic power… she will be sucked down into the abyss. Down there… it's very dangerous.”
