The Fire of Love the Great Goddess

Eps. 30: You'll Know

They are like being chased by demons. Fortunately, Dongfang Yue's magic worked so well that they managed to evade the pursuit of the Demon Clan warriors.

Bai Feng Xian was not unable to use his magic, but if there was someone willing to use it to save him, why not? He had to conserve his energy and Dongfang Yue was fully responsible for his safety.

Breaking through the Devil Realm is a violation. Without consent, the person forcing entry will be immediately arrested and tried. As the Celestial Emperor, Dongfang Yue had violated him, he humiliated himself. That was what made Bai Feng Xian wonder why the man dared to risk his own reputation.

Now, they arrived at the gate of the Sky Palace. The new sun will set and spout a charming orange color in the sky.

Warm spring accompanies, diffusing the smell of peaches emanating from the garden of the Sky Palace. The two Heavenly Generals were silent at the spot where he stood, slightly bowing as a gust of wind passed in front of them.

Tianwu Palace looked slightly different at night. In the past, this palace was decorated with a variety of bright crystal lights, making it like a silver building in the middle of the night darkness.

But, what Bai Feng Xian had found today was only a palace display with a makeshift light, not too bright and not too dark. It just makes it look more charming.

Compared to everything regarding grandeur, he preferred this simple look. Bai Feng Xian could not help but comment, “You changed it?”

There was a small nod coming from Dongfang Yue's head movement. “I know you don't like anything too bright.”

“You shouldn't have to. I guess, our relationship is not at the level that makes you have to change everything,” Bai Feng Xian said.

Yes, his relationship with Dongfang Yue did indeed start from an accident. Bai Feng Xian did not think at all that he would be involved with the figure of the Celestial Emperor, who in people's eyes was the only immortal that was hard to reach. His majesty, his elegance, his strength, it was enough to make him stand on the highest throne of the Sky Kingdom.

Highlight Dongfang Yue's eyes dimmed. His heart was like a slice. This woman standing next to him was the woman he loved, who five hundred years ago had been in love with him. The look in Bai Feng Xian's eyes as A Xian used to be not this calm. He is also not a man who is good at words. But Bai Feng Xian, had incarnated into a figure that was difficult to penetrate by him.

“Who knows? I might consider filling Tian Hou one day,” Dongfang Yue said. It clearly made Bai Feng Xian surprised.

“Do not joke,” Bai Feng Xian laughed discordantly in his awkwardness.

They were sitting in the garden pendopo of Tianwu Palace. Bai Feng Xian stared at the sky that was bathed in stars and moonlight.

It felt, he was closer so that he could reach them with his hands. In Qingqiu, only the Mirror Lake had skies as clear as this. That was why he liked to spend his nights relaxing in the Ming Ye residence.

Dongfang Yue took out something from her hand, then gave it to Bai Feng Xian.

“What is this?”

“Buddhist Lotus Petals. It can help protect the spiritual consciousness. Give it to A-Rou, he might one day undergo his test of becoming a God. This lotus petal could keep his spiritual awareness awake.”

“This precious thing you just gave me?”

“There are many precious objects in the Sky Palace. If you want, you can take him to Mount Xi and hoard him in the fox cave,” Dongfang Yue said with a little laugh.

Bai Feng Xian turned his face to the side. Given his fondness for hoarding treasure, he became embarrassed. Twenty thousand years of his life as an immortal, he had amassed many treasures in the fox cave.

It all came from gifts, findings, and also the spoils. When his spiritual power is not stable and he often changes to his original form, he often returns with his fox form.

Dongfang Yue raised his head and looked at Bai Feng Xian. “About what?”

“About your student. I had seen him in the Fire Mirror some time ago when I suddenly got lost in Mount Yanqi.”

The corner of Dongfang Yue's eyes twitched. Does he see himself?

“What do you see?”

“I saw the woman standing on the edge of the God Killer Well in a miserable state. There was hatred and disbelief in his eyes. For some reason, I felt the same pain as he did. Are you willing to tell me what really happened back then?”

Dongfang Yue's heart was like being squeezed and her heart twisted with a rope. Painful when it comes to remembering that moment. But, he also had to give an explanation to Bai Feng Xian, even though the current woman did not remember him at all.

Perhaps after hearing this explanation, Bai Feng Xian could understand if his memories were to rise up sometime.

“The only mistake I ever regretted was accepting Yingzhao as my Sky Concubine. My condition was not good at the time. People say, I am a powerful Great God, but no one knows that I can also darken my eyes for a moment. Yingzhao discovered my weakness and took advantage of it, until I forced my own student to commit suicide.”

“Are at that time, your spiritual awareness was unstable?” bai Feng Xian asked.

“Cannot be said to be unstable, but my condition was not good at that time. A-Xian has not managed to reach the highest level in cultivation I taught. He... can't protect himself.”

“So, can you say you are affected and stuck when your condition is not okay?”

Dongfang Yue nodded uncertainly. I don't know, his memory of how he was initially fooled is so faint. Yingzhao seemed to have applied a magic spell on him so he lost his control and composure. Everything happened so fast. That was what made Dongfang Yue harbour long regrets in her life.

“A-Xian is innocent. But, I wasn't even able to save her even though I had the strength to do that. Am I not a coward?”

Hearing it directly from Dongfang Yue, Bai Feng Xian's heart was twisted. Dongfang Yue also must have suffered after his departure. Its majestic figure became ice-cold, like the cliffs of Mount Kunlun that were forever covered in eternal snow. Who would have thought that the Celestial Emperor had such a huge heart wound.

Since the time of the Ancient Gods, immortals have usually only fallen in love once. The first love of the gods is their last love. That was also true for Dongfang Yue, even though she was not part of the prehistoric gods. He received the direct teachings of Emperor Xuan Yi, who became his father and teacher. Things will not be much different.

“Then, will you continue waiting for him?” asked Bai Feng Xian again. He wanted to know what kind of attitude Dongfang Yue would take, whether he would stick to his stance or try to open his heart to others.

“I've found it.”

“You've found it? Where?”

“One day if you remember it, you'll know.”

In this passage, Bai Feng Xian did not understand. Dongfang Yue's attitude towards her was different from her attitude towards others.

He said he loved his disciple so much, but why did he treat Bai Feng Xian like this? Could it be that Dongfang Yue had already started to falter? So, what does that mean?

It seemed, Bai Feng Xian had to ask Ming Ye.
