Reborn as a tree, the peerless god is obsessed

Looking at the bronze mirror in front of her, Xue Yao felt confused.

She really didn't expect that a bronze mirror would make her dream about her past life.

Heavenly Palace?

Meixiang Pavilion?

Not urgent!

After arriving in heaven, she decided to start her journey from the south, and returning to the Heavenly Palace was one of the steps, but she arranged it to the end.

In the secret garden, Xue Yao slept soundly that night and then devoted herself to cultivation.

When the sky outside turned pale, she habitually came back to her senses from her practice, quickly washed up, had breakfast with her companions, and left the secret garden.

A teahouse on East Street.

It looks ordinary, but the environment is quiet.

The teahouse is filled with a faint aroma of tea. Generally speaking, you can get some local information in such places.

Sitting by the window, a man in purple ordered several pots of fragrant tea. People in the teahouse gathered in twos and threes, chatting in low voices, with occasional laughter emanating.

He first poured tea for the man in blue opposite him, then poured some for himself, then raised his hand and gestured, "Third Prince, please."

The man in blue, known as the Third Prince, nodded slightly, picked up the teacup, and elegantly brought it to his lips.

He took a sip and casually turned his head to look out the window.

Outside the window, people of all kinds hurried past, and everyone seemed to have their own story and destination.

The man in purple was searching the crowd for something, as if waiting for someone special to appear.

The man in green put down his teacup and asked softly, "Why did you ask me to meet you here?"

The purple-robed man smiled slightly and replied, "Third Prince, do you remember our last discussion about the mysterious power in the eastern part of the Celestial Realm?"

The man in green nodded, a hint of interest flashing in his eyes. "Of course I remember. That power seems to be related to ancient legends."

The purple-robed man nodded slightly and continued, "I recently got some new clues that may help us uncover the mystery of that power."

The man in green raised his eyebrows slightly, looking a little surprised. "Oh? That's really exciting."

The purple-robed man's eyes were deep, as if he could see through everything. "Yes, Third Prince, this power is not only related to the balance and order of the heavens."

After hearing this, the man in green turned serious. "So, what should we do next?"

The purple-robed man pondered for a moment, then slowly spoke: "We should continue the secret investigation, but we will need more manpower."

The man in green nodded in agreement, "Manpower is not a problem."

A glimmer of determination flashed in the purple-robed man's eyes, "Thank you, Third Prince!"

The man in blue said firmly, "Investigate thoroughly. If you have any new clues, please let me know."

The man in purple nodded, "Okay."

Recalling something, the man in green looked at the man in purple across from him, "Oh, so how's that going?"

"Progress is going smoothly," the purple-clad man replied calmly, a barely perceptible glint of sharpness in his eyes. "Our men have infiltrated and are gradually understanding their patterns of movement and internal structure."

The Third Prince nodded gently, setting down his teacup, his gaze penetrating. "Very good, but remember not to be careless. The enemy's forces are deeply intertwined, and the slightest carelessness could result in all our efforts being wasted."

The purple-robed man smiled faintly, brimming with confidence. "Don't worry, Third Prince. We've already laid the plan. Once the time is right, we'll be able to destroy their core strength in one fell swoop."

The two continued to talk, discussing how to take advantage of each other's internal contradictions and how to gradually weaken its power without causing large-scale conflicts.

Inside the teahouse, other guests did not notice that these two seemingly ordinary tea drinkers were actually planning a major plan concerning the safety of the heavenly realm.

At this time, the man in blue inadvertently looked out the window again.

Suddenly, his eyes widened.

Just with this one glance, I noticed a familiar figure passing by the teahouse.

"Could it be her?" That white dress was too familiar.

He felt something in his heart and quickly stood up and walked quickly to the window to see more clearly.

But the figure seemed to have noticed her gaze and disappeared as if deliberately avoiding him. His heartbeat accelerated, and inexplicably, he felt that it was her.

There was a little person in my heart, repeating over and over again: "How could it be? Didn't she turn to ashes?"

He didn't even know it himself, but despite this, there was a glint of surprise in his eyes.

He walked out of the teahouse quickly and flew straight towards the direction where the figure in white clothes was floating away.

Xueyao and her group walked on the street for a while and then came to a teahouse.

This teahouse was the one that the Third Prince and his companion had just walked out of.

If people are destined to meet, they can meet each other even if they are thousands of miles apart. If they are not destined to meet, they will miss each other inexplicably even if they meet across from each other or pass by each other.

Just as the Third Prince and his companions came out of the teahouse and flew to the left, Xue Yao and her group entered the teahouse from the right.

When they reached the second floor and sat down shortly afterwards, Xue Yao noticed that there was an old man sitting in the corner of the teahouse with a chess board in front of him, and he seemed to be playing chess alone.

Xueyao had always been interested in chess, and the old man looked familiar. Surprised, she also wanted to confirm it.

So she stood up, walked towards the old man, and politely asked if she could watch the game.

The old man held a white piece and a black piece in his hands. He didn't even raise his head, his eyes fixed on the chess pieces, and it seemed that he didn't hear Xue Yao talking.

It is in an independent world and is not disturbed at all.

Not saying anything? Then she would take it as his consent.

He wanted to embarrass her in this way so that he could return home in disgrace, without even having doors or windows.

Xue Yao calmly sat opposite the old man, claiming to be observing the chess game, but actually she was observing the man.

This old man was obviously Dou Yuntian, the old man she met in spirit when she was in seclusion in Taohua Mountain during her time on earth.

She has met the real Dou Lao!

A sweep of divine sense confirmed it was genuine.

But when she walked towards the old man, he remained indifferent.

That's too much, old man.

Xue Yao watched quietly, thinking, let's see how long this old man can pretend, oh no, how long can he remain indifferent?

She was gradually attracted to the chess game and found that the old man's chess skills were indeed superb and every move was full of profound meaning.

Xueyao remained calm on the surface, but kept making trouble secretly.

When the old man made his move, she first prevented him from placing it in the right position, and then when the old man exerted his strength, she stopped interfering.

When the old man collected the child, she first made it impossible for him to pick it up, but when the old man exerted his strength, she stopped interfering.

After a few rounds, she deliberately placed a black piece in a seemingly insignificant position, but inadvertently destroyed the old man's carefully planned chess game.

The old man finally raised his head and stared at Xue Yao with sharp eyes, as if asking her why she did this.

Xue Yao simply smiled, as if to say, "Isn't this chess game a reflection of life? Sometimes, a small change can change the entire situation."

A hint of admiration flashed in the old man's eyes, but he quickly regained his composure, meaning, "Little girl, you are very talented, but a chess game is like life; you can't win by just messing around."

"Oh, really? But sometimes, if you don't follow the rules, you can find a new way out."

"Humph!"

Xue Yao smiled, "Old man, if you keep pretending, let's see how long you can keep pretending."

She didn't expect that the old man would disappear on the spot the next moment.
