The journey of Emperor Donghua through time

Wei Wuxian and Lan Wangji were drawn upwards by a suction force, and they floated in the white void for a long time.

Wei Wuxian was counting Lan Wangji's slender fingers out of boredom when he suddenly noticed that the surrounding environment had changed and was no longer all white.

He instantly perked up, looking around to observe the environment, and found that they were floating towards a place similar to an ascension platform, with only some simple buildings nearby.

"Lan Zhan, are we there yet?" Wei Wuxian asked uncertainly as the two of them stopped steadily on the ascension platform.

“We’re here.” Lan Wangji looked around and said in a positive tone.

"Don't you know where this place is? Let's find someone to ask." Wei Wuxian was just about to look around to see if there was anyone when a voice came from behind.

"Excuse me, are you Lord Yichen and Lord Hanguang?"

Wei Wuxian and Lan Wangji turned around at the same time and saw that the person who spoke was a young man who was bowing to them.

"It's us. May I ask who your friend is?" After the two of them returned the greetings, Wei Wuxian asked the other party first.

"I am Chonglin, the chief immortal of Taichen Palace. I have come to pick you up on the orders of the Emperor." Chonglin said respectfully. Although he was not sure about the identities of the two, the fact that Emperor Donghua specifically ordered him to pick them up and take them directly to Taichen Palace meant that they deserved his respect.

"Are you talking about Emperor Donghua?" Hearing him mention the Emperor, Wei Wuxian and Lan Wangji looked at each other. They both thought of Emperor Donghua. Wei Wuxian still asked Chonglin tentatively.

"That's right. He is the only one in the world who can be called the Emperor." Chonglin explained to them patiently.

“I see. Does that mean the Emperor has a very high status in the world?” Wei WuXian asked indirectly.

"The Emperor is the ruler of heaven and earth, and his status cannot be described by just one word." Chonglin saw two immortal officials wearing the same attire not far away, so he told them to wait a moment and walked towards them.

Upon hearing the identity of Emperor Donghua, they were both very shocked. Although they had always known that their master's identity was not simple, they did not expect that he was the sovereign of heaven and earth!

"Master is too much. He never told me his identity!" Wei Wuxian couldn't help but mutter after Chonglin walked away.

“Master may think this matter is not important, so he didn’t tell us.” Lan Wangji was shocked for a moment, but soon calmed down.

“That’s right. With Master’s personality, he must think this is unimportant and there’s no need to talk about it.” Thinking of Emperor Donghua’s personality, Wei Wuxian was helpless. “Let’s find out more about Master later. It’s not good for a disciple to be completely ignorant of Master’s affairs. Don’t you agree, Lan Zhan?”

“Yes, that’s what you said.” Lan Wangji agreed with him somewhat helplessly.

After a while, Chonglin came back and said apologetically, "Sorry for the long wait. I will take you two back to Taichen Palace now."

“Immortal Officer Chonglin, were those two also your colleagues?” It was unknown what Chonglin had said to the two immortal officers. The two immortal officers looked in the direction of him and Lan Wangji for a long time before leaving.

"Those two are the reception envoys of the Purple Palace, responsible for receiving the immortals who have just ascended."

“I see.” Wei WuXian nodded in understanding, and then asked, “What is the Purple Mansion?”

"The Purple Palace is where the Emperor works and receives worship from new gods and immortals," Chonglin said.

On the way to Taichen Palace, Wei Wuxian had no time to appreciate the scenery of the heaven. Along the way, he learned a lot about Emperor Donghua from Chonglin through indirect questions.
