Film and Television Variety Show: The Jade Girl's Love Affair

The once mysterious runes gradually dimmed, and the paper became charred and fragile, as if it would turn to ashes at any moment.

The black-robed remnant soul seemed to sense the impending doom and began to scream in agony, its voice sharp and shrill, as if it were tearing apart the oppressive sky.

How could Tang Yu let go of such a golden opportunity? She suddenly shouted, her aura rising once more, and accurately flung a wisp of burning Samadhi True Fire toward the black-robed remnant soul.

The flames, like a ferocious beast on command, instantly clung to the black robe, setting it ablaze. The fire spread rapidly, engulfing the entire robe in the blink of an eye.

The remnant soul writhed wildly in the flames, as if making a final struggle, but all in vain.

Under the immense power of the Samadhi Fire, the black-robed figure gradually turned to ashes, leaving only a desperate scream before vanishing into the dim world.

Watching the black-robed remnant soul vanish into nothingness in the Samadhi True Fire, Tang Yu's tense nerves instantly relaxed.

The surging spiritual energy around him receded like a tide, his legs went weak, and he collapsed to the ground, exhausted, his consciousness plunging into darkness.

During Tang Yu's slumber, wondrous changes quietly took place in the desolate Heavenly Court.

The previously dormant spiritual energy seemed to be gently awakened by an invisible hand, and began to slowly revive.

Those stones, once sealed by the dust of time and slumbering in slumber, seemed to be infused with the vitality of life, and they all awoke.

Even more astonishing is that those once withered and dead medicinal herbs and plants, nourished by spiritual energy, have taken root and sprouted anew, growing at an astonishing rate.

The desolate celestial realm seemed to be infused with life in an instant, surrounded by spiritual energy, blooming with hundreds of flowers, and brimming with vibrant vitality.

While asleep, Tang Yu finally learned the whole story from the Heavenly Dao.

It turns out that after Nuwa created humans and retreated, a powerful spirit quietly tore through the chaos and entered this world.

Like a cunning fox, it exploited loopholes in the Heavenly Dao, seized the opportunity to control the rules of the Heavenly Dao, and almost completely merged itself into the Heavenly Dao, replacing it.

The celestial realm, which should have evolved naturally and been filled with peace, was thus firmly controlled by this evil remnant soul.

It was like a greedy glutton, frantically absorbing all the spiritual energy in the world, especially the celestial realm, which should have been the place with the most abundant spiritual energy in the world, but it almost completely drained it.

This remnant soul also attempted to use the great war triggered by the future Investiture of the Gods to kill more gods and demons in the battle, thereby absorbing their spiritual power and realizing its ambition to completely replace the Heavenly Dao and dominate the world.

Now Tang Yu finally understood why he thought the Investiture of the Gods was a pirated version and that the Primordial Celestial Venerable was fake.

The culprit is this usurped soul, which has drained most of the spiritual energy in the world and even attempted to use cultivators to instigate a devastating war that would destroy all life, all to satisfy its insatiable desires.

During his coma, Tang Yu's body was like a dried-up sponge, frantically absorbing any energy it could find to repair its body, which had been riddled with holes by lightning.

It was unclear how much time had passed; it felt like an eternity, yet also like a fleeting moment. Tang Yu finally opened her eyes slowly, and all her strength had returned.

The celestial realm has been completely transformed.

A mystical aura swirls around, clouds and mist drift by, and everywhere is brimming with life and vitality, with all sorts of creatures moving about, creating a lively and bustling atmosphere.

Even the stone bench next to her transformed into a lively spirit, hopping and skipping over to Tang Yu, grinning at her.

"Fairy, you are amazing! I have been asleep for so many years, and I would never have woken up if it weren't for you!"

Tang Yu's lips curled up slightly, revealing a gentle smile.

At this moment, a magical herb swayed gracefully and flew over.

"Fairy, many celestial beings in the Heavenly Realm have awakened, but now no one knows what to do."

"Fairy, can you help us? If any more evil things come, we might all die!"

As the fairy grass finished speaking, more and more fairy spirits gathered around, their eyes filled with helplessness and expectation.

Tang Yu frowned slightly as she looked at the scene before her.

Although the celestial realm has now recovered its vitality, it lacks a leader. If this continues, it will inevitably descend into internal strife, and the hard-won peace will be destroyed once again.

It seems I need to find someone who can rule the heavens as soon as possible.

Looking around, Tang Yu raised her hand to signal the celestial spirits to be quiet. She began to carefully examine the celestial spirits and select a few with abundant spiritual power and high intelligence.

After entrusting the important task of protecting the celestial realm to these immortal spirits, Tang Yu's spiritual power surged, gathering into a dazzling vortex, transforming into a stream of light, and flying swiftly towards the mortal realm.

Having just returned to Nandu, Tang Yu's figure had barely descended from the sky when she saw Yuan Shen walking slowly out of the courtyard gate with a smile on his face.

“Since the day you left, I have been thinking every morning when I open my eyes: Will you come back today? You have been gone for a month, and I have been waiting for a month.”

"Whether I'm looking at the sky at dawn or the clouds at dusk, I think of you whether I'm walking or sitting."

After Tang Yu jokingly said that, Yuan Shen smiled, opened his arms, and gently embraced Tang Yu.

The warm embrace seemed to shut out the noise of the outside world, leaving only their breaths and heartbeats. Yuan Shen whispered in the ear of the person before him: "When will we meet again? This night is filled with unbearable longing."

Tang Yu was slightly taken aback, then smiled and looked up at him: "You certainly know how to pick poems."

Yuan Shen released his embrace and gently kissed his forehead, his gaze tender yet carrying a complex expression.

"This world is truly terrifying. Is the Ji Fa I know really the future King Wu of Zhou?"

The remnant soul I wrote about today is actually my desire to beat up the director; he invaded the Investiture of the Gods.

Chapter 9 Investiture of the Gods

Yuan Shen still doesn't understand what's going on in this world.

In his view, the Zhou Dynasty was a crucial stage in the long history of Chinese civilization, carrying a profound historical legacy.

He originally thought he had arrived in the Zhou Dynasty, before the Han Dynasty, and that with his knowledge of this period of history, he should be able to easily deal with everything.

But when he carefully compared the real people with the records in the history books, he was surprised to find that everything was strange.

Is Ji Fa too young? That's why he shows no signs of the wise and mighty king he will become in the future?

King Zhou should have been the rightful heir to the throne, so how did he become a patricide, fratricide, and usurper in this world?

And what about Su Daji? Why did she become a fox spirit who bewitched the king?

Not to mention Jiang Ziya, whose image is completely different from that in historical records.

During this time, these doubts lingered in Yuan Shen's mind, making him wonder if the world was normal.

Tang Yu keenly sensed Yuan Shen's confusion; after all, having regained her memories, she too was deeply surprised by the strangeness of this world.

With a gentle smile, Tang Yu took Yuan Shen's hand and spoke.

“Good idea, let’s go inside and talk in detail.”

The two stepped into the house, and Tang Yu took out two soft, thick cushions. The two knelt down facing each other.

Then, Tang Yu recounted to Yuan Shen his extraordinary experience of going to Kunlun Mountain, as well as the fierce battles he fought against the strange Heavenly Dao and the mysterious Investiture of the Gods in the Heavenly Realm, without reservation.

After finishing her story, she paused briefly before continuing.

"This world should have developed along the familiar trajectory of Chinese history. However, some foreign remnant souls took advantage of the situation and invaded the Heavenly Dao, causing the development of the entire world to deviate from the right track."

Good idea. We haven't gone back to the past, but rather arrived in a parallel universe similar to our own understanding.

Upon hearing this, Yuan Shen looked somewhat puzzled, clearly not fully understanding the concept of parallel universes.

Seeing this, Tang Yu patiently explained.

"I have traveled to many worlds, each with its own unique history of birth and development."

This world, though sharing similarities with the Shang and Zhou dynasties, is by no means the true past as recorded in our historical memories.

Yuan Shen suddenly realized, and his doubts vanished instantly.

He no longer dwelled on the various aspects of King Wu of Zhou, Ji Fa, nor was he worried about the direction of the transition between the Shang and Zhou dynasties.

At this moment, his mind and eyes were filled with the person in front of him.

"Yu'er, did you regain your memories on the day you seized the Investiture of the Gods?"

Tang Yu nodded with a smile, her smile as bright as the warm spring sun, and a gentle light shone in her eyes.

She gently raised her hand, her fingertips tracing the tip of Yuan Shen's eyebrow.

“Good vision, you see, you once said that we would meet again, and now it has truly come true.”

Yuan Shen's expression softened instantly. He couldn't help but lean forward, his slender fingers gently gripping Tang Yu's wrist, pulling her into his arms.

The two knelt on the ground, and Tang Yu leaned against the warm chest, her cheek pressed against the clothes, feeling the familiar heartbeat.

Yuan Shen lowered his head, his thin lips close to his ear, his warm breath brushing against his earlobe, his voice deep and gentle, carrying a hint of tenderness.

"Yu'er, I can understand how you feel. Even if this is just a parallel world similar to the Shang and Zhou dynasties, the moment I regained my memories and knew the general course of history in the future..."

I suddenly felt as if life had lost its surprises, and my previous curiosity and anticipation had gradually dissipated.

Knowing too much doesn't necessarily bring happiness. You must have been exhausted by the past years to choose to forget.

When I comforted you then, telling you not to be afraid, it was actually because I hadn't yet grasped how unbearable the weariness is when life becomes utterly meaningless, and nothing can stir any emotion within.

Upon hearing these words, Tang Yu raised her head, trying to smile, but her eyes involuntarily reddened slightly.

"Good idea, it's actually selfish of me to let you regain your memories. I'm worried that it will make you lose your sense of wonder about the world."

But I long for your company so much; being alone is too lonely.

Yuan Shen chuckled softly, his slender fingers gently stroking Tang Yu's hair, combing it gently. Then, he cupped her cheeks in his palms, his thumb lightly caressing the corner of her eye, wiping away the barely perceptible moisture.

"Yu'er, why blame yourself? I think the premise of feeling life is meaningless is that you are not in this world, but now we accompany each other, is there anything better than this?"

After saying this, Yuan Shen lowered his head and gently kissed her.

Tang Yu closed her eyes, wrapped her arms around the other person's neck, and gently ran her fingertips through his hair, responding to the kiss.

The kiss deepened, the lips burning with passion yet tender enough to make one's heart tremble.

After a long while, Yuan Shen stepped back slightly, and Tang Yu could hear his slightly rapid breathing, his voice low and gentle.

"I just have a little regret in my heart. Why didn't we meet again in the modern society you long for? Perhaps we could have found more freedom there."

I witnessed the tribulation of lightning that day when you seized the Investiture of the Gods. This time, your journey to the Heavenly Realm took a full month, and although I didn't experience it firsthand, I can imagine the hardships you endured.

I only hope that you can live freely and unrestrainedly from now on. Since there are gods and immortals in this world, they should naturally shoulder the heavy responsibilities of Heaven. The two of us can also live a carefree and unrestrained life.

Upon hearing this, Tang Yu smiled gently.

"Good idea, I never intended to do anything earth-shattering. In the future, I will definitely take you to many, many places to travel."

In the previous world, magical powers could not be used at will, but this world is very different now. Gods, demons, and blessed lands are everywhere, and there are countless fun places to visit.

I no longer want to get involved in the power struggles of the world; I just want to travel around with you and roam freely in all directions.
