The Empress nodded in agreement. “Truly the Jade Emperor. You’re detail-minded and have great ideas. You’re right.”

“Sigh, why didn’t I think of it at that time? The expert must be so disappointed in me.”

Cheng Yi frowned. She wished she could turn back time. She missed that opportunity. What a waste, what a shame!

“It’s still fixable. Wait for future opportunities to give the expert a palace,” said the Jade Emperor. Then, he asked, “What next?”

“Then, we brought the expert to the Seventh Princess Palace. The expert painted The Land of Mountains and Rivers Painting. Then, we visited the Flat Peach Garden…”

Cheng Yi seemed to recall something. She suddenly went serious. Even her voice changed. She said with uncertainty, “I think I heard the solution to remove the seal.”

“What?”

The Empress and the Jade Emperor suddenly stared at Cheng Yi. “Are you sure?”

Cheng Yi shook her head. “I’m not sure.”

She paused and continued, “The solution wasn’t said by the expert. A kid next to the expert simply said it, but they seemed to be fooling around. They were also scolded and punished by the expert.”

The Jade Emperor was intrigued. “You heard something?”

“I think it’s something like…becoming a being of light?” Cheng Yi frowned. She could not figure out what it meant.

“Become a being of light…”

The Jade Emperor and the Empress fell into deep thought. They could not figure it out either. However, their facial expressions gradually became serious.

They looked at each other and took a deep breath. They said, “Cheng, it might be the solution!”

The Empress said softly, “Anyone who stayed with the expert would know a lot of things under his influence. The casual words of that kid must be because they noticed something from the expert. Too bad the expert won’t allow them to speak more of it.”

The Jade Emperor nodded and said, “The Empress and I were also servants for the Buddha back in the days. Although we just served tea, we still had a greater advantage than any genius who worked a hundred times harder than us. They couldn’t compare to us!”

Then, he warned, “Remember, don’t offend the expert in any way. The same goes for those around the expert!”

“Of course, I know that.”

Cheng Yi nodded. Then, she asked, “What should we do, then? How about we start from the two kids, ask them for the specific meaning?”

“No! Scrap that idea right now!”

The Jade Emperor hurriedly stopped her. He said nervously, “If you do that, where’s your respect toward the expert? The expert’s plan is the most important thing. You being so calculative will displease the expert.”

Cheng Yi immediately realized. She hurriedly said, “You’re right, Emperor.”

The Empress waved it off. She said, “Forget it. We shall pick a nice day to visit him ourselves. We should check out the Heavenly Palace first.”

The Jade Emperor immediately said with excitement, “Haha, you’re right, Empress. Let’s hurry up and leave this lousy place. I can’t wait.”

…

It was late at night when they returned from the Heavenly Palace to the four-part architecture.

Li Nianfan yawned and said goodbye to everyone. Then, he went back to his room to sleep.

After half an hour, Daji and the Fire Phoenix slowly crept out of their room. They ensured they would not disturb him so they looked at each other and started walking outside.

Daji waved and summoned a little fox from the woods. She hugged the little fox.

Then, the little fox gently looked up and said quietly, “I already gave the orders. The operation starts now.”

The name of the operation was… Real Spy Operation!

It was an easy and direct operation.

The operation involved a spy in the mix. Then, it would gradually convert and take in a second spy, and then a third…

Once they had a spy of every species, they could easily overpower them.

The little fox nudged her head at Daji. She changed into a comfortable position in Daji’s embrace. She asked with enjoyment, “Sister, where are we going?”

Daji petted the little fox. She smiled and said, “On the way to becoming the Demon King.”

The little fox relaxed and moved her ears. She immediately said with admiration, “Wow, sister’s so awesome.”

Daji lifted her by the tail. She had to frown and ask, “Alright, stop acting cute. Why haven’t you been immortalized?”

“Immortalization’s so dangerous. I heard that eight out of ten people die from the lightning tribulation when they’re immortalized. I think it’s quite nice to be a fox, I don’t think I’ll immortalize.” The little fox was kind of scared. She did not dare to look at Daji.

“That won’t do.”

Daji frowned harder. “I’m here, so you’ll successfully immortalize. Also, we have the Master. Even the tribulations will lessen for you.”

The little fox flinched. “Just in case. More importantly, I like being a fox.”

Daji was annoyed. However, it was not the time to speak about that. She said, “I’ll deal with you later!”

The Fire Phoenix at the side asked, “Just the two of us?”

Daji replied, “I also called Ao Cheng just in case. We’ll meet up later.”

The Fire Phoenix had to say, “It’s a bit too safe.”

“It’s important. Our opponent’s a Taiyi Golden Immortal after all. They must have a lot of tricks to defend their lives. We have to ensure safety and avoid mistakes.”

They chatted on the way there. Daji and the Fire Phoenix stood on clouds and traveled toward the faraway horizon.

Meanwhile.

Two figures snuck out of the Dragon Palace. They peeked around and made sure no one was alarmed.

They were Ao Feng and Ao Shu.

“Elder Ao Shu, what kind of opportunity is it exactly? Stop playing riddles, I’m truly itching from curiosity,” rushed Ao Feng. His eyes were sparkly with excitement.

Ao Shu smiled and said mysteriously, “Don’t worry, Prince. Would I lie to you? That day, I was being hunted and I ran for my life. But, I also got lucky from the disaster. I passed by a secret border and found a great opportunity! I’m only willing to share it with you. You didn’t tell anyone, right?”

Ao Feng immediately said, “Do I look that foolish to you? What opportunity is it? Tell me!”

Ao Shu reached into his pouch.

Out came an orange in his hand. “Take a look. What is this?”

“An orange, right?” Ao Feng looked closer and slowly realized it was extraordinary. He was about to reach for it to take it when Ao Shu hurriedly put the orange aside. “You saw, right? This orange is a Spiritual Fruit!”

“It’s a Spiritual Fruit?!” Ao Feng was bewildered. He looked jealous. “Elder Ao Shu, did you find a Spiritual Plant that grows oranges like that?!”

Ao Shu nodded. “Ha, that’s right.”

Ao Feng widened his eyes. He was excited and also full of regret. He said with shame, “Elder Ao Shu, I’m truly sorry! That day, I left you behind. Now, you found an opportunity and the first thing you thought of is to share it with me. I’m ashamed!”

Ao Shu slightly teared up from that. He said with affection, “Prince, don’t say that! You’re the future of the Southern Sea Dragons. I’m willing to do it for you no matter what!”

Ao Feng was teary from being emotional. He was touched. He said, “Elder Ao Shu, don’t say anything anymore. From now on, you’re my foster father!”

“Alright, Feng. Let’s not delay. Hurry up and come with me.”

“Yeah, you’re right, father. We can’t let others get to it first!”

They immediately sped up and swam further.

After an hour, they arrived at a small island. Then, they slowly came out from the water.

“Father, are we there yet?” Ao Feng was flushed from excitement. It was as if he could already see the Spiritual Plant.

Ao Shu nodded, “Yeah, Feng. We’re here.”

“Then what are we waiting for? Spiritual Plant, here I come!”

Ao Feng yelled and burst out from the sea. He caused a huge splash. Then, he jolted and realized he was trapped in an ambush.

The four cultivators levitated in the air in a square. He landed right in the middle of the ambush. His smile instantly faded away.

Daji had the little fox in her arms. She looked cold. The Fire Phoenix smirked mockingly. Her long red hair flowed with the wind. Ao Cheng and Ao Yun were on standby, ready to attack.

Ao Feng was alarmed and he instantly yelled. He dived back into the sea, “Father, there’s an ambush! Retreat!”

Kaboom!

However, when he dived back into the sea, the seawater exploded. A terrifying aura formed a tornado and burst into the sky. He was pushed out from the sea by a strong force as he groaned.

Then, Ao Shu teared up as he blocked his path to the sea. He said, “Feng, I’m sorry. Father disappointed you.”

Ao Feng was mind blown. He could not understand what was going on. He yelled in disbelief, “Father! Why?!”

Ao Shu replied, “Feng, I’m doing what’s good for you!”

“How can you say that? You’re clearly trying to kill me!”

Ao Feng shook and transformed into a Black Dragon. He roared and turned around. He was ready to escape.

He knew what he had to do. He knew that it was impossible to win against them but he still had hope to escape.

“Did we say you could leave?”

The Fire Phoenix licked her red lips. She waved and the Immortal Trap Rope shot out like a snake. It went towards Ao Feng.

Ao Feng knew how powerful the Immortal Trap Rope was. He frantically turned around and spat out an emerald green dragon scale. The scale grew with the wind and turned into a Dragon Scale Shield. It shined and stopped the Immortal Trap Rope.

Just when he was about to sprint, a giant handprint landed on him like a mountain!

He heard Ao Shu say, “Feng, father suggests you quit.”

Spurt!

Ao Feng did not take the hit. However, he was panicking and he was livid. He spat out blood from anger.

Ao Cheng and Ao Yun attacked at the same time. Huge waves surrounded Ao Feng and turned into a water ball in the blink of an eye, trapping Ao Feng inside it. He struggled but he could not escape.

Daji took out the Golden Gourd and cast a spell. Light instantly beamed on Ao Feng as it forcefully absorbed his spirit.

The Fire Phoenix took out an orange at the side and simply tossed it to Ao Shu. “Here, this is your reward.”

Ao Shu immediately said, “Thanks, Goddess Fire Phoenix.”

Ao Feng saw that from within the water ball. He glared hard. He could not believe what was happening in front of him at all. His voice was extremely agonized when he said, “Ao Shu, you sold me out for an orange?!”

“Feng, I did this for your own good. You’ll understand why in the future.”

“Nah! Aren’t you ashamed? You animal! You’re the embarrassment of the Southern Sea Dragons!”

Suddenly, two Kirins casually walked over and saw the scene. They stopped in their tracks and watched with shock.

One of the Kirins panicked. “Not good, Elder Kirin. Something isn’t right! The opportunity you speak of has been taken by someone else.”

“Don’t panic. As long as you know what to do, we’ll still have opportunities.” Then, the Elder Kirin immediately attacked the Kirin without any warning.

Bam!

The Kirin was knocked over without any warning. It landed near Daji and the others.

Ao Cheng and the others smiled coldly. The tension was in the air.

The Kirin was horrified. It looked at the Elder Kirin in disbelief. “Elder Kirin, you…you…”

“I’m a spy!”

…

On that day.

A cloud flew in and landed gently at the bottom of the Fallen Immortal Mountain.

Then, four figures slowly appeared. It was the Jade Emperor and the others.

They hesitated for a long while and finally decided to visit the expert as a family.

Mainly because they needed to know how to break the seal. They could not take it anymore so they rushed here.

Ziye had to ask, “Empress, do you think the expert will tell us the solution?”

The Empress shook her head. “I don’t know. Let’s try as best as we can. Did you bring the items I told you to prepare?”

Ziye nodded. She smiled and said, “I did. It’s a great idea, Empress, giving the Rainbow Garment as a gift.”

The Rainbow Garment was made from clouds in the sky. Not just any ordinary clouds, it was made from clouds that were shined on by the first rainbow in thousands of years. Then, it was carefully weaved by Goddesses. Although it was not a Spiritual Treasure, it was still beautiful, luxurious, and regal. It was a sign of status to wear the beautiful garment. It could even accentuate gracefulness.

Girls could ignore their defense skills or whatever, but they could not ignore their beauty. Therefore… The Rainbow Garment was a legendary item that attracted girls. No one could resist it.

The Empress brought out the treasured Rainbow Garment without hesitation after knowing about Li Nianfan. On top of that, she took out four sets. One for Daji, one for the Fire Phoenix, one for Nanan, and one for Dragin!

“Ha, this is a reverse tactic. The expert wouldn’t be impressed by whatever we give him, but we can please those around him. That’s halfway to success.” The Jade Emperor smiled. “I thought of that idea!”

“Wise idea, Emperor.”
