"Master, it’s time for dinner." Zhi Yi called Quan Shaoqing several times, but the man remained expressionless, like a wooden stake, without any reaction for a long time.

He looked at Quan Shaoqing’s cold profile, that unbelievably beautiful face full of gravity.

Zhi Yi hesitated for a moment, then leaned close to Quan Shaoqing’s ear and raised his voice to a hundred decibels, "It’s dinner time."

"Zhi Yi, you’re really asking for it!" Quan Shaoqing slapped the table.

Zhi Yi lowered his head in grievance, cold sweat beading on his forehead from fright, "Master, I’ve called you more than ten times."

"Really?" Quan Shaoqing rubbed his temples, feeling that he must be bewitched.

"Didn’t I?" Zhi Yi thought to himself, it was just a trip to the Heavens, why does the Master seem like he’s lost his soul?

"Alright, let’s go eat." Quan Shaoqing stood up and left the desk, walking toward the dining room.

At the doorway, he stopped again and said to Zhi Yi, "Go find the Great Elder, have him find all the records about Your Highness Lan Xi in the Heavens for me."

"Ah! Weren’t you not concerned about Heavenly matters? Besides..." Zhi Yi was about to say something, but Quan Shaoqing’s serious gaze stopped him from saying more.

"I’ll go find the Great Elder now!"

Only then did Quan Shaoqing nod in satisfaction.

For three consecutive days.

Quan Shaoqing found that whenever he had free time, his mind was full of the image of Lan Xi.

Even while sleeping, he would dream of the woman he often dreams about, wearing a delicate cloud hairpin, with ink-black hair cascading like a waterfall, a blue dress swaying, yet he could never see her face clearly.

But he could often hear someone calling him Ah Qing!

Several times, he was startled awake in the middle of the night by dreams and could not go back to sleep.

On the fourth day, Zhi Yi came to report with the information found by the Great Elder.

"Master, this is recorded in the Heavenly Book.

The Great Elder went to the Heavenly Emperor and secretly copied it down from the Heavenly Book.

After you read it, you must burn it. If the Heavenly Emperor finds out, bringing out the content of the Heavenly Book is against the rules and punishable. " Zhi Yi reminded.

Quan Shaoqing wasn’t in the mood to hear him talk.

He quickly opened a stack of papers.

"Lan Xi, daughter of Goddess Lan Yan of the Goddess Palace, conceived by the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, is a Child of God.

At five hundred years old, she entered a shared life contract with a mortal named Shaoqing.

At three thousand years, the Demon War erupted, and Lan Xi, by herself, obtained the Divine Artifact Qiankun Bowl, and nearly perished due to an accident.

In No-return Valley, she found the Spirit Vein to nourish her soul, and after recovering, obtained a divinity, using her own power to defeat a million demon soldiers and save the Immortal Realm.

At five thousand years old, she defeated the Primordial Demon Dragon.

.. In the ritual, she purified mortal illnesses, transforming into a demon due to bearing too much sickness and malevolence.

At six thousand years old, she consumed Primordial Grass, dissipated the demonic qi, and returned to the Immortal Realm. "

"What kind of record is this? It’s not complete at all." Quan Shaoqing vaguely felt that Lan Xi’s story shouldn’t be scribbled so briefly.

"My Master. This was copied by the Great Elder at great risk from the Heavenly Book." Zhi Yi was speechless.

"Since you could find this information, surely everyone knows it. What I want is what others don’t know. For instance: this mentions the Shaoqing who entered a shared life contract, where did he go?" Quan Shaoqing said.

Zhi Yi looked Quan Shaoqing up and down, showing a bit of strangeness in his eyes, "Master, aren’t you too concerned about this?"

Quan Shaoqing’s eyes instantly turned cold.

Zhi Yi felt a winter chill arriving immediately and quickly coughed to clear his throat, "I found an elder in the Heavens to inquire a bit. Lan Xi’s status is noble, and ordinary people don’t know about her affairs.

Even Goddess Lan Yan might not know everything.

According to the elder, there were two people often by Lan Xi’s side. "

Quan Shaoqing: "Who?"

"The person who entered the shared life contract with her as mentioned in the information. The other is her senior brother Mi Xi. Perhaps Crown Prince Ya also knows something. But..."

After building suspense, Zhi Yi continued, "But, I heard that Lan Xi originally had a marriage contract with the Heavenly Clan.

But after the ritual, she turned demon, and since the Heavens wanted to kill her, feeling dejected, she annulled the marriage contract with the Heavens.

She defected from the Heavens and went to the Demon Realm, becoming the Demon Lord for several thousand years. Of course, the details are unknown."

Quan Shaoqing’s brow lowered, he didn’t expect Lan Xi to have such an experience, "Then what about the person by her side called Shaoqing?"

Zhi Yi shrugged and spread out his hands, "How could others know that? It’s said that Shaoqing was Lan Xi’s Guardian; he was a mere mortal, looked down upon by others. Only Lan Xi treasured him like a precious gem by her side. Master, don’t you think you are that Shaoqing!"

Quan Shaoqing lightly pinched the paper with his fingers, his expression somber as he said, "Do you think that’s possible?"

"Absolutely impossible! The Imperial Power Clan are descendants of the gods. Every one of us is unique. How could we be a reincarnation of someone else, let alone that someone is only a mere mortal?"

Quan Shaoqing chuckled lightly, "Aren’t we mortals?"

Zhi Yi immediately retorted spiritedly, "It’s not the same, we’re descendants of the gods, under heaven’s protection. Not like those mere mortals."

Quan Shaoqing put down the information in his hands, it’s no wonder Lan Xi calls him Ah Qing.

Perhaps it’s because his name is similar to her guardian’s!

With this thought, he gave himself a reason to calm the various anxieties and confusion in his heart recently.

Quan Shaoqing then calmly handled official business.

It is said that chaos has arisen in the 420th Mortal World, with multiple forces causing a world war, the continent’s environment being destroyed, and resources necessary for survival being decimated.

The struggle for power, bloody and brutal, has thrown the Mortal World into chaos.

If he doesn’t go to stop it, the 420th Mortal World is likely to be destroyed, forcing humanity to reproduce anew from the ancient times.

Of course, he needs to investigate before going to the Lower Realm, then make a plan.

...

Lan Xi initially intended to rush to find Quan Shaoqing.

But thinking it over, she had scared him away previously.

It was indeed her fault.

So, she personally gathered the Dawn Light to weave into a brocade, made herself three or four new outfits, and bought some new ornaments, giving herself a whole new look.

She wanted to dress beautifully to meet Ah Qing.

Let him remember her sooner, and then marry her home.

Finally, with everything in order, Lan Xi used the name of the Goddess Palace to send an invitation to the Imperial Authority Realm, saying she wanted to visit the Imperial Power Clan to exchange ideas on better governance of the Mortal World.

Since she did it in the name of the Goddess Palace, the Imperial Power Clan naturally couldn’t refuse.

Lan Xi then went with a few maidservants to the Imperial Power Clan.

Quan Shaoqing received this news and his face instantly became complicated.

Lan Xi coming to visit was definitely not a good thing.

Thus, before Lan Xi arrived, he left with Zhi Yi under the pretext of going to the Lower Realm to impart knowledge and stabilize the throne.

Undoubtedly, Lan Xi arrived to find an empty nest.

Lan Xi was furious, her rage reaching the heavens as the guy deliberately avoided her.

So she stayed in the Imperial Authority Realm for a few days, found out his whereabouts, and then went to the Mortal World.
