Chaos Spirit Field

Nuwa told Zhunti Taoist what Zhao Shanhe had said, and after hearing it, his doubts were immediately resolved. No wonder Yuanshi Tianzun had walked away in anger; it turned out he had planned this all along, truly worthy of being called the most sinister of saints.

Afterwards, the Taoist Zhunti arrived at the Heavenly Palace. After seeing the Emperor of Heaven, he said, "Emperor of Heaven, I have come here to ask for a favor. I hope Your Majesty can agree to it."

Upon hearing this, the Emperor of Heaven quickly responded, "I wonder what Saint Zhunti is seeking? Feel free to tell me."

The Taoist Zhunti bowed and said, "The Huashan Mountain Goddess's position and duties are seriously inconsistent. I hope Your Majesty can help adjust her duties."

The Emperor of Heaven knew what was going on. He frowned slightly, turned to look at Taibai Jinxing, and said, "Taibai Jinxing, check the Heavenly Book to see if it is true."

Upon receiving the order, Taibai Jinxing immediately consulted the Heavenly Book and respectfully reported to the Emperor of Heaven: "Your Majesty, the rank of Yang Xiaochan, the God of Mount Hua, is the twenty-first level."

Upon hearing this result, the Emperor was stunned. In disbelief, he asked again, "Lord Taibai, did you see it clearly? Did you see it correctly?"

Taibai Jinxing quickly took out the heavenly book, carefully read the records, and then replied affirmatively: "Your Majesty, the Huashan Mountain God Yang Xiaochan has 2.108 billion followers, is at the 21st level of the divine rank, and has cultivated to the realm of True Immortal. It is indeed incredible."

"Lord Taibai, are there any abnormalities in the positions of other immortals?"

"Yang Jian is level 22, Jiang Ziya is level 10, Nezha is level 15..." As the names and levels were read out one by one, everyone was shocked. These gods with unusual positions were basically disciples of the Chan Sect.

The Taoist Zhunti standing by was even more shocked. Many of his doubts were resolved. No wonder Yuanshi Tianzun did not get involved in the Journey to the West. It turned out that he had been making a fortune in silence.

The Jade Emperor pondered for a moment before asking, "Lord Taibai, is there any deity position suitable for Yang Xiaochan?"

"Your Majesty, as far as I know, the position of the Goddess of Childbirth under the jurisdiction of the Emperor of Longevity is quite suitable." Taibai Jinxing replied respectfully.

"Then let Yang Xiaochan be the Goddess of Childbirth. Go and inform the Great Emperor of Longevity. I believe he will not have any objections."

Upon hearing the Emperor's decision, the Taoist Zhunti hesitated for a moment, but ultimately remained silent. "Goddess of Childbirth" was indeed a desirable deity. He had originally discussed this matter with the Emperor of Eternal Life, waiting for Guanyin Bodhisattva to reach the twenty-first level of deity status before proceeding. Now, for the sake of the Journey to the West, he had no choice but to compromise.

Soon after, the Great Emperor Changsheng received the news and hurried to the Lingxiao Palace. Seeing the Taoist Master Zhunti there, he immediately understood everything. His junior brother was truly calculating. So he said, "Your Majesty, as long as the Saint Zhunti has no objection, I will naturally agree."

The Emperor of Heaven said, "Great Emperor Changsheng, this was proposed by the Saint Zhunti."

"That's good."

The two of them singing the same tune was simply murderous and heartbreaking. The Taoist Zhunti turned his head away and pretended not to hear.

Yang Xiaochan in the Shanhe Ring was stunned. Zhao Shanhe asked, "Xiaochan, what happened?"

Yang Xiaochan replied: "Shanhe, my deity status has changed. I have become the Goddess of Childbirth."

Zhao Shanhe said, "The Goddess of Childbirth is a good job. Xiaochan, do you want to attract more believers?"

Yang Xiaochan asked curiously, "How to attract it?"

"If you get pregnant, it will definitely be the best advertisement."

"What is advertising?"

"Spread the word. Even good wine needs a well-maintained reputation. The Goddess of Childbirth is pregnant, so how can it not be effective?"

Yang Xiaochan said angrily, "Zhao Shanhe, you just want to torment me in every way you can. Immortals are also human beings and need to rest. The Heavenly Court asked me to report on my duties. Tan Tai Mingyue must be lonely and unbearable in the Moon Palace. You can actually steal her away."

Zhao Shanhe was somewhat tempted by Yang Xiaochan's proposal, but after much deliberation, he gave up and said, "It's not the right time yet. Go report on your duties first. I'll wait for you in Luoyi City."

In the Moon Palace, Zhao Yunxiao danced with joy as he showed off his magic weapon to Tan Tai Mingyue, his face filled with pride and excitement.

"Mother, look! This is my Yunxiao Sword. It's forged from the copper of Shou Mountain. It's incredibly powerful, not much less powerful than the original Xuanyuan Sword!"

"And this, the Wind and Thunder Wings! They're as powerful as the wind and as fast as lightning. They're even more powerful than the Wind and Thunder Wings of Emperor Gou Chen. And this Yun Xiao Armor, it can withstand attacks from Golden Immortal-level masters. These were all given to me by Senior Brother Zhao Zilong."

Tantai Mingyue smiled and nodded, feeling relieved at the changes in her daughter. However, when she noticed the loneliness in Zhao Yunxiao's eyes, she couldn't help but ask curiously, "Yunxiao, you seem to be worried about something."

Zhao Yunxiao lowered his head, his voice low and tinged with frustration. "Mother, Senior Brother Zhao has found someone he loves. He's become a Taoist couple with Yang Xiaochan, the deity of Mount Hua."

These words resonated like thunder in Tantai Mingyue's ears. Her eyes widened, and a storm surged in her heart. Yang Xiaochan loved Zhao Shanhe, so there was no way she would marry anyone else!

An inexplicable joy surged in her heart, and she felt that her long-dead heart had suddenly come back to life. She had always believed that man would not die easily, and now it seemed that he might really still be alive.

"Yun Xiao, are you telling the truth?" Tan Tai Ming Yue was trembling with excitement.

"Yes, mother." Zhao Yunxiao nodded, but his heart was filled with bitterness.

Tantai Mingyue took a deep breath, calming her inner turmoil. She gently stroked Zhao Yunxiao's head and soothed him, "Silly child, you can't force feelings. Perhaps Zhao Zilong's kindness to you isn't simply driven by romantic feelings. Sometimes, family affection is just as precious."

Zhao Yunxiao raised her head, tears welling up in her eyes. "But, Mother, I really like him and want to be his Taoist partner."

Tan Tai Mingyue didn't know how to persuade her. She knew that Zhao Shanhe must have some purpose in concealing his identity, so she could only think of other ways to slowly guide her daughter.

Zhao Yunxiao saw her mother was in a daze. She took out a large pile of fairy fruit from her storage ring and said, "Mother, what are you thinking about? Come and try this fairy fruit. It would be great if Senior Brother Zhao was here too. His cooking is so delicious. He'd make me whatever I want."

Tantai Mingyue saw a familiar fruit among the pile of immortal fruits. She picked it up and was about to taste it, but Zhao Yunxiao quickly stopped her and said, "Mother, you should eat something else first. This is the Dragon Scale Fruit, which will make you full in one bite. If you eat it, you won't be able to eat any other immortal fruits."

"Then eat something else first."

Tan Tai Ming Yue is now 100% sure that Zhao Zilong is Zhao Shanhe, but she doesn't know when they will be reunited.
