Sword of the Nine Heavens, the Fall of the Gods

Suddenly, a man dressed as a servant jumped out from the side, holding a wooden stick in his hand, and hit Xiaotian Dog on the leg.

Seeing that Roaring Sky Dog did not move, the man cursed and raised his stick to hit it again.

"What happened, housekeeper?"

A clear male voice came from the inner room. The voice was calm and steady, with a bit of majesty.

The attendant turned around and replied respectfully, "Your Majesty, a wild dog came from nowhere and ate the pig's head on the incense table."

As soon as he finished speaking, a young man in fancy clothes walked out from the room next door.

The man wore a purple gold crown on his head, a golden dragon necklace with eight-section sleeves, and a pair of colorful cloud-climbing boots on his feet. He looked very noble.

His face was as gentle as jade, his eyes were as bright as stars, and his gaze was as cold as autumn water, making people dare not look directly at him.

Although Xiaotian Dog was beaten, its hunger made it unable to care about other things and it still held the pig's head tightly in its mouth.

Seeing this scene, the young man couldn't help but feel a little sympathy.

"Butler, forget it. This big dog must be starving. Go get me a bucket of water so I can wash my face."

"Yes! Your Majesty."

The housekeeper hurriedly dropped the wooden stick, picked up a copper basin and ran outside.

Roaring Sky Dog took the opportunity to wolf down the pig's head, as if he wanted to turn all his grievances and hunger into this meal.

The young man in Chinese clothes looked at the big white dog in front of him with complicated eyes, and an inexplicable emotion surged in his heart, as if he saw his own shadow.

He sighed to himself.

"I, Gao Changgong, am no different from this lost dog. I look like a prince and a grandson of an emperor, and I look bright and beautiful. But who knows that I have been ostracized, attacked, looked down upon, and ridiculed?"

A bitter smile appeared on Gao Changgong's face, as if he was mocking his ups and downs of fate.

"Now I am asked to go to the local area to pray for wind and rain for the people. This really makes me angry."

"Although I have a gentle appearance and am not good at martial arts, I have a heart that wants to fight on the battlefield and serve my country."

Looking at the big white dog in front of him, he shook his head, stretched out his hand, and threw a roast chicken on the altar over.

Xiaotian Dog took the roast chicken without hesitation and ate it all in a few bites.

After eating, it seemed to have recovered some energy. It wiped its mouth and looked at Gao Changgong.

"Thank you for your hospitality. I heard what you said just now. As long as you can do one thing for me, I guarantee that your wish will come true."

"You... you big dog, what kind of monster are you? How come you can speak human language?"

Gao Changgong was startled and stared at it with wide eyes, an indescribable panic on his face.

Xiaotian Dog couldn't see anything, but he still grinned.

"I am not a monster. I am a subordinate of Erlang Zhenjun of Guanjiangkou. I was seriously injured by a monster and ended up here. I am talking to you because I am grateful for your hospitality."

"You...you are Roaring Sky Dog?"

As a prince, Gao Changgong had naturally heard many myths and legends and ancient stories, and was also familiar with the legendary story of Erlang Zhenjun.

The appearance of the big dog in front of him and the words it spoke immediately reminded him of the legendary divine dog.

Roaring Sky Dog nodded and answered affirmatively: "That's me!"

Gao Changgong's expression changed from surprise to awe, and he quickly stepped forward and bowed: "God! How did you end up like this?"

Roaring Sky Dog seemed a little embarrassed and was unwilling to reveal the truth that he was injured by the python monster because of fighting for food.

"I can't tell you the reason, but if you do me this favor, I will ask Master Erlang to help you become a god of war on the battlefield. What do you think?"

After hearing Xiaotian Dog's promise, Gao Changgong's excitement was beyond words and he nodded in agreement without hesitation.

"If you have anything to tell me, please feel free to tell me. I, Gao Changgong, will do my best to accomplish it!"

Roaring Sky Dog nodded with satisfaction and wiped his greasy mouth.

"It's not difficult. You just need to write a letter and send the bell on my neck to the Erlang Zhenjun Temple at Guanjiangkou. But remember, you must arrive at midnight. It won't be too early or too late!"

Gao Changgong nodded repeatedly and said sincerely, "This is easy, I will do it in a moment. I just neglected the God, and I really deserve a beating. God, please follow me to the Tianxiang Tower in the city, and let me apologize to you, how about that?"

Hearing this, Xiaotian Dog was in a good mood and responded with a smile: "I don't deserve the apology, but it would be nice to have a few drinks together."

Gao Changgong laughed loudly and immediately ordered his men to prepare two sedan chairs.

A man and a dog sat in a sedan chair and walked towards the city.

……

The fairyland in heaven, the nine-sky palace.

The Nine Heavens Qiongtai of the Queen Mother of the West has jade beams and clouds steps, and is surrounded by fairy mist and fragrant breezes.

The scene of Guanghan Fairy playing chess with Jiutian Xuannu is peaceful and beautiful.

Fairy Guanghan's hair is extremely beautiful. Her crystal black hair flows smoothly like a waterfall, dancing gently with the changing situation of the chess game.

Her brows were sometimes furrowed and sometimes relaxed, and her beautiful eyes were filled with profound wisdom and calm detachment.

The Lady of the West showed a hint of impatience, and the wrinkles between her brows revealed her slight dissatisfaction with the sudden visit of the Three Goddesses, but more of it was her reluctance to leave the chess game that had not been completed.

"Sister, it's getting late and I should go back. You should go and entertain the Three Goddesses!"

The smile of the fairy Chang'e is like the rising moon, gentle yet decisive.

Those bright eyes revealed a hint of regret and reluctance when saying goodbye.

As she waved her hand, colorful auspicious clouds lifted up her figure like a dream and gradually disappeared into the clouds.

Back in the Moon Palace, Su'e's crying pierced the quiet night.

Fairy Chang'e frowned slightly, her eyes showing both blame and worry.

After understanding the situation, her beautiful face became a little solemn.

"This guy actually dared to steal the treasure box and go to the mortal world without telling me. It's really abominable. I must bring her back and ask her for an explanation."
