At this time, Zheyan came out from the depths of the peach forest. He saw the helpless look on Bai Zhen's face at a glance, and a trace of curiosity surged in his heart. So, he walked behind Bai Zhen and Bai Qian and said softly: "Zhenzhen, don't be too picky. I think Xuannv has a straight look in her eyes and doesn't look like someone who would do such a thing. On the contrary, Qianqian should learn more from her."

Zheyan's words were very fair, but they caused Bai Zhen's dissatisfaction. Bai Zhen turned around immediately after hearing this, glared at Zheyan, and asked loudly: "Old Phoenix, what do you mean by this? Is my judgment wrong? Or did I wrongly accuse that maid? She is just a little maid. What qualifications does she have for us, the Qingqiu Princess, to accommodate her? Not to mention asking her to teach our Qingqiu Princess!"

"Zhenzhen, what you said is unreasonable. I just expressed my opinion. Why do you have to be angry? Besides, I don't think that little fox has bad intentions as you said. I said to let Qianqian study with her because I think you are too indulgent to Qianqian. What's wrong with that?" Zheyan frowned and looked at Bai Zhen. Zheyan felt something was wrong. Why was Bai Zhen so repulsive to Xuannv?

"Old Phoenix, I think you are confused. What is there about that humble maid that is worthy of my concern?" Bai Zhen was also angry. This was the first time he was confronted by Zhe Yan, and he felt uncomfortable.

"Did I say something wrong? It's just a little fox that's less than 2000 years old. Why are you so unreasonable?" Zheyan was speechless. He really couldn't understand why Bai Qian was so dissatisfied with Xuannv.

"Wasn't it her who plucked Jingwei's hair last time?" Bai Zhen reminded.

"What do you mean it was her? It was Qianqian who did something wrong. Xuannv just came to inform me. Why do you want Qianqian to be involved in a life at such a young age? That person is a descendant of my bird clan, and she was bullied by Qianqian. If I hadn't stopped her, do you think Jingwei's parents would have let Qianqian go?" Zheyan said angrily.

He knew in his heart that if it weren't for his obstruction, Jingwei's parents would never let Bai Qian go easily. After all, they were parents who loved their children, so who could tolerate others bullying their children? But now, Zheyan was dissatisfied with Bai Zhen's attitude.

"Isn't this what you should do? Old Phoenix, are you really that disloyal? How come you were also deceived by that little fox?" Bai Zhen's words became more and more outrageous.

"You are simply unreasonable. Go back to your Qingqiu. You are not welcome in my Ten-mile Peach Forest." Zheyan said as he waved his sleeves and sent Bai Zhen and Bai Qian out of the peach forest.

The drunk Bai Qian was thrown to the ground, and Bai Zhen managed to keep himself steady with great effort. He cursed Zhe Yan in his heart. How despicable that this guy treated him and Qian Qian so rudely!

Jiaojiao knelt outside the peach forest, quietly looking at the two people who suddenly appeared in front of her. She already understood everything in her heart, but still pretended to be puzzled and asked: "Fourth Prince, what are you and Princess Di doing?"

Bai Zhen's face was a little gloomy. He glanced at Bai Qian lying on the ground, then said to Jiaojiao, "I'll take Qianqian back." After that, he picked up Bai Qian, turned around and left.

Jiaojiao looked at their departing backs and sighed secretly in her heart.

"Then what should I do?" Before Jiaojiao could finish her words, she saw Bai Zhen holding Bai Qian and leaving.

"Sister, let's go. Don't stay here, otherwise Bai Zhen will turn the tables on you again." Xiaoyu said worriedly, holding Jiaojiao's hand.

Jiaojiao sighed helplessly: "Alas, I have to go back to Qingqiu. I am convinced by Bai Zhen. Why would he talk to me like this?" She really couldn't understand why Bai Zhen was always so unfriendly to her.

Xiao Yu pondered for a moment and said, "Sister, it should be that the power of your destiny is getting stronger and stronger, which has affected Bai Zhen, so he can't control his emotions every time he sees you. However, Zhe Yan should still be clear-headed and not confused."

Jiaojiao nodded, indicating that she agreed with Xiaoyu's point of view: "Well, I don't know when I will come to Taolin next time. I have a feeling that the next time I come to Taolin, I can completely get rid of Bai Qian and Qingqiu." A gleam of determination flashed in her eyes, hoping to end this complicated relationship as soon as possible.

"It will be quick." Xiaoyu comforted Jiaojiao.

Bai Zhen carried Bai Qian back to Qingqiu, which frightened Bai Zhi and Ning Chang. Ning Chang hurried over and asked anxiously, "What happened to Zhen Zhen? Is Qian Qian injured?" She looked at Bai Qian in Bai Zhen's arms, her face full of worry.

Bai Zhen comforted her, "Don't worry, mother. Qianqian is just drunk and not hurt." He patted Bai Qian's back gently, hoping to make her feel more comfortable.

Ning Chang breathed a sigh of relief, but still asked with some confusion: "Then why did you bring Qianqian back? Where is Xuannv?" She knew that Bai Qian and Xuannv went to the Ten-Li Peach Forest together, and now only Bai Zhen brought Bai Qian back, and a trace of doubt arose in her heart.

"Mother, you don't know how much the old phoenix has gone too far. When I taught Xuannu a lesson, the old phoenix blamed me, saying that we had taught Qianqian too much and that we should let Qianqian learn from Xuannu. You said that Xuannu, a lowly maid, dared to let our Qingqiu Princess learn from her. It's really too much." Bai Zhen complained about Zheyan as soon as he saw his mother.

"Zhenzhen, don't be willful. Don't you know Zheyan's temper? If you hadn't done anything wrong first, why would he teach you a lesson for no reason?" Bai Zhi frowned and said earnestly.

Bai Zhen was so angry that his cheeks bulged like an angry pufferfish: "Father, what could I have done wrong? As soon as the old phoenix saw me today, he started to criticize me without any mercy. I just said bad things about Xuannv in the Ten Mile Peach Forest, and those were not bad words. Xuannv is a scheming person."

Bai Zhi shook his head helplessly: "You kid, why would Zheyan say that? Isn't it because he is grateful for what happened with Jingwei last time? Why can't you give in? Besides, Zheyan didn't say anything wrong."

"Dad, why are you still speaking for that Xuannv? Old Phoenix blames me without any reason, and I can't swallow this." Bai Zhen sat down on the chair with his hands on his chest.

“Zhenzhen, you also know Zheyan’s temper. He might have been a little anxious at the time, but he definitely had no ill intentions. You two have been friends for so many years, don’t let this become unpleasant because of such a small matter.” Bai Zhi sat next to Bai Zhen and patted him on the shoulder.

Bai Zhen snorted, "Father, this time is different. If he doesn't come to Qingqiu to apologize to me, I will break off my friendship with him. I, Bai Zhen, also have a backbone, and I can't always be bullied by him."

Bai Zhi sighed, knowing that Bai Zhen was really angry, and he couldn't persuade him for the time being: "Then calm down first, Dad will go find out what's going on first, and then make a decision."

Bai Zhen didn't say anything, but just turned his head away, still feeling indignant about Zhe Yan's matter.

................................................................................................................................................Taolin Boundary Line..........................................................................................

After driving Bai Zhen and his sister out, Zhe Yan breathed a sigh of relief, raised his hand to wipe the non-existent sweat on his forehead, and murmured: "What happened today? Am I clear-headed?"

Zheyan has been living in a daze these years, as if he was trapped in a fog. He couldn't see the road ahead and couldn't remember many things in the past. Two days ago, Emperor Donghua suddenly called him to Taichen Palace for some reason and beat him up without saying a word. Zheyan was beaten up for no reason at the time and felt wronged. But others could only guess secretly, after all, Emperor Donghua just beat him up and said nothing. Only a few people who knew the situation knew that Emperor Donghua was actually very clear-headed, but he was suppressed by the mysterious heaven. He had a lot of grievances and couldn't tell the whole story, so he could only vent his anger by beating Zheyan up. Of course, Mo Yuan was not so lucky either. He was also on Emperor Donghua's "revenge" list, but he had to wait until the next time.

Zheyan's brief lucidity at this moment was like a flash of lightning that suddenly flashed across the night, briefly illuminating the surroundings, but the darkness would soon shroud him again. Bai Zhen would definitely complain to Bai Zhi after returning. With how much Bai Zhi doted on Bai Zhen and his sister, he would certainly increase his spell on Zheyan. By then, Zheyan would fall into that state of confusion again, as if he was a puppet being manipulated, without his own thoughts, and could only act according to the spell cast on him. Zheyan stood there at this moment, his heart filled with helplessness and fear about the impending confusion, but he was powerless to change it all.

"Donghua, Donghua, I never thought that we would be plotted against in the end." Zheyan looked up at the sky with a helpless look on his face.

"Forget it, I'll just go with the flow." Zheyan said without thinking about what happened next and continued to make wine.

......................................................................Thirty-three Heavens Taichen Palace...................................................................

Let me explain to you all, Miaoluo should have been suppressed by Donghua before the Tianyi War. These timelines are all privately set by the stupid author. Don't worry too much when reading the book. All the unreasonable places are the stupid author's own pits.

Return to the main text.

In the distant thirty-three heavens, the Taichen Palace was quiet. Emperor Donghua sat quietly by the pond, his figure like a majestic jade mountain. He held a fishing rod, seemingly fishing for fish in the water, the fishing line hanging into the pond without a single ripple. But the emperor's soul had already left his body, as if he was trapped in an endless dream, unable to extricate himself.

In the past two days, Emperor Donghua has been wandering in dreams. He saw that the Heavenly King Cizheng, whom he personally appointed, should have led the Celestial Clan to prosperity, but died suddenly not long after taking office. At that moment, Emperor Donghua seemed to feel the trick of fate. Then, he saw that he chose to return to Bihai Cangling, the place where he was born, where he had the purest memories, and he decided not to care about worldly affairs. However, the wheel of fate did not stop turning. Haode ascended the throne of the Heavenly King. This man was ambitious and busy with some false reputations all day long. Under his governance, the Celestial Clan began to become chaotic and disorderly, with many internal contradictions and many external crises.

At this time of turmoil, Miaoluo was born, like a demon in the dark, bringing great disaster to the Celestial Clan. Emperor Donghua had no choice but to give up 90% of his cultivation and seal Miaoluo in the Miaoyi Huiming Realm with his own great sacrifice. It was a thrilling battle. Although the Emperor was powerful, he was also seriously injured by this battle. He frowned in his dream, as if thinking, if he had not stayed out of it at that time, would everything be different. But dreams are dreams after all, and he is still deeply trapped in them. He doesn't know when he can really wake up and face this reality that may have changed.

After sealing Miaoluo, Emperor Donghua thought everything would gradually return to peace. But he never expected that Haode Tianjun's ambition and poor governance would breed hidden dangers within the Celestial Clan like a cancer. Qingcang, the ambitious guy, was full of dissatisfaction with Haode and finally launched a war.

When Emperor Donghua first heard about it, he thought it was just a small battle between the Sky Wings. In his opinion, with the strength of the Celestial Clan, there shouldn't be any surprises in dealing with such a war. He was like a bystander overlooking a chess game, although he was somewhat concerned, he was not too alert.

However, the slap in the face happened so quickly. After the Tianyi War kicked off, the situation took a sharp turn for the worse. The Supreme Goddess Yaoguang, the shining star in the Celestial Clan, unfortunately fell in this war. Her light suddenly went out before it could fully bloom. This bad news was like a huge rock thrown into a calm lake, stirring up thousands of waves.

But the disaster did not stop there. Lord Mo Yuan, an ancient Lord with a high status in the Celestial Clan, resolutely chose to sacrifice himself to the Donghuang Bell in order to stop Qingcang's crazy behavior at the critical moment. It was a resolute and tragic sacrifice. The moment his body merged into the Donghuang Bell, it seemed as if the whole world was trembling.

Just like that, the two ancient gods of the Celestial Clan fell inexplicably in this battle of the Sky Wings that was thought to be harmless. Their departure was like the fall of the two brightest stars in the Celestial Clan's sky, plunging the entire Celestial Clan into great grief and chaos. Upon hearing the news, Emperor Donghua was filled with regret and self-blame. If he had taken it seriously earlier, would all this have not happened? But at this moment, everything has become a fact that cannot be changed.
