The two of them spoke at the same time and burst out laughing at the same time.

Su Mohui observed the fluctuations of his divine power and reached out to wipe the wine stain from the tip of his ear. "How did you live in the Second Continent?"

Shen Jiaan took a sip of wine. As his Adam's apple rolled, a few drops of wine spilled out of the bottle, slid down his neck into his collar, and slid across his muscles. "After accepting the Suzaku inheritance, I sensed the aura of the Phoenix Orphan on the Second Continent."

He shook the wine jug, and the divine power in his hand reflected on the jug, faintly reflecting the pattern of the entrance to the secret realm. "The secret realm hidden by the Nine Heavens Mysterious Lady in the legend actually has a sleeping phoenix orphan, and a cave that can attract the Nanming Lihuo."

Su Mohui paused in her drinking, thinking of the letter Fan Wujiu had found on the Second Continent, and the glimpse of the secret realm Xie Bian had mentioned. However, since she had met Ya, she hadn't paid much attention to the news of that secret realm. She didn't interrupt, simply listening quietly as the young man continued.

"I stayed in that cave for a while. When I came out of seclusion after practicing, the Phoenix Orphan was awakened by the Vermillion Bird Fire and passed away in Nirvana." Shen Jia'an said, groping for the wine jug in his hand.

"As soon as I returned to Suzaku Palace and completed my breakthrough, I discovered that there was an imposter, a Six-Eared Macaque, causing chaos in the Mortal Realm Church. You know, that guy always leaks when he imitates my speech. He was exposed in just three sentences."

"After you help me rescue Zhou Zheng and the others from that bead, I will eliminate that six-eared macaque. From then on, I will follow Zheng Ting as his disciple..."

Shen Jia'an did not mention the tragic situation where the double thunder tribulation always left him with only half a breath left. He only talked about Zheng Ting accepting him as his disciple, how dazzling the lightning was when the "Lord of the Divine Realm" technique recognized its master, and how he broke through despite the five times thunder tribulation. His tone was as if he was saying that the wild fruits on the next hill were very sweet.

It wasn't until he mentioned the resonance between Lingbao Tianzun's godhood and the Suzaku throne that a glimmer of light flashed in his eyes: "Now that I've touched the threshold of the Supreme God, the twenty-fold thunder tribulation bestowed by the cosmic consciousness... well, just consider it a rite of passage."

"During the Chinese New Year... I told Zhan Qing that I would come back to spend the New Year with you," he said, suddenly scratching the back of his head and pulling out a red envelope from his sleeve. A Vermillion Bird pattern outlined in gold foil spread its wings in the moonlight.

"I wanted to help you put up Spring Festival couplets, but you ended up in reincarnation again. But the red envelopes haven't expired, right?"

Su Mohui took the red envelope and touched the small gold-plated words written by Shen Jiaan on the inside of the cover - "Peace and Joy".

She remembered the New Year gifts Shen Jia'an brought them on the First Continent. Those jadeite stones earned him a beating from his father, but he smiled and said in front of Su Mohui that he was just being stubborn.

"It's not too late." She suddenly laughed out loud. "After I finish the business in the Ninth Heaven, I will take you back to the First Continent to eat the candied haws carefully selected by my father. They are sweeter than the ones selected by Bai Xin."

Deep in the plum blossom forest, a blue dragon muttered, "Old Xuanwu's tortoise shell is softer than my bed..."

Taotie turned over and muttered, "The bed my master made for me was made with the Nine-Layered Heaven Spiritual Jade..." Unconsciously, his breath filled with drunken power startled the white plum blossoms on the tree.

Su Mohui looked at the falling petals all over the sky and suddenly felt that compared to the majesty and solemnity of the Supreme God, the young man shaking the wine jug beside him was the Shen Jiaan she knew.

Always swallow the bitter wine, but leave the sweetest candy for friends.

"Don't just stare at me and ask questions." Shen Jia'an shook the empty wine jug, raised his hand and condensed a flower of spiritual power, and then wrapped a jar of wine from a distance and flew towards the two of them. "Our Lord of the Netherworld Palace just returned to the Ninth Heaven and held the Judgment Conference of All Realms. You have to let me hear your story of 'overcoming the tribulation', right?"

Su Mohui leaned against the stone table, the foxtail mat rubbing against her palm: "Hey, don't mention it——"

She narrowed her eyes and lowered her head to flick away a plum blossom that had fallen into the cup. "When I was invited to the Lingxu Realm, that guy Qi Mo somehow became the temporary realm master. He gave me a lot of things and said it was 'compensation for me'."

Thinking of that time when Qi Mo was talking in a ball of red light, she couldn't help laughing out loud.

"Later, when I went to the cosmic void to search for clues, I saw a heart wrapped in gray mist in the rift of the Abyss." Su Mohui's tone suddenly lowered a bit. With her fingertips dipped in clear water, she traced the outline of the heart on the stone table. "The cosmic consciousness said it was the sleeping vessel of the God of Ke. I was almost scared to death at the time. Fortunately, the cosmic consciousness intervened and I was not entangled by the gray mist."

"That little Tiandao from the Xinhua Realm also made me a time-space cube to help me split the tracking object of the God of the Control System. So, the first thing I did when I returned to the Ninth Heaven was to ask Zhuanxu to help me throw that thing into the Burning Heaven Furnace."

When talking about reincarnation, Su Mohui subconsciously raised her head and looked at the full moon above her head. "In the ninety-nine reincarnations, the most troublesome one was when I was in Sui Ming Kingdom. The power of the Ke system eroded my consciousness countless times. But fortunately, Sui Ren's fire burned that thing..."

"But the most tiring life was definitely my modern life! Seeing the surrogacy industry chain got me so angry I broke three pens. Especially when another colleague exposed the underage surrogacy incident, he was actually reported by that group."

"That incident was quickly suppressed," Su Mohui said, growing increasingly excited. "But it took me ten years of hard work and a few friends working on women's rights to finally get the Global Safe Reproductive Act and the Global Safe Women's Act into Blue Planet history."

Shen Jiaan listened quietly. Occasionally, a gust of night wind blew from the depths of Merlin, lifting the strands of hair on her forehead and making the sparks in her eyes even brighter.

"And then there's Qin Shi Huang's life," she suddenly chuckled. "The first time I cycled through it, I walked right into the Xianyang Palace with a modern map in my pocket, frightening the Emperor so much that he dropped his brush."

"But it took many attempts to get back on track. I still remember when we went to war, I led the Suzaku Guards you gave me to cut down the military flag in the freezing rain. Your armor was covered in mud, but you still insisted that it was a battle medal."

Hearing this, Shen Jiaan's ears felt slightly hot and his eyes drifted away. He hurriedly drank some wine to try to cover up his embarrassment, but he choked and started coughing.

Su Mohui patted his back amusedly to help him catch his breath, and then said, "The last life was decided in the Luoshen Empire, and you are all here..."

She looked at the sky full of psionic butterflies, her voice trailing off. "After the reincarnation cycle ended, I passed by a cybernetic Heaven. I saw Taishang Laojun's forge emitting blue light. Chaos, the god-killer, was live-streaming an attack on Heaven's firewall. I wonder if Monkey King got so angry when he saw the peaches scattered all over the ground when he returned to the Peach Garden."

"Oh, speaking of this, the day I returned to the Netherworld, I woke up the Monkey King. He had a terrible argument with the King of Hell, and he almost tore up my Netherworld Palace," she said, counting on her fingers.
