She traveled to the fantasy world and fought monsters

When the Emperor appeared, everyone knelt down to pay their respects.

Yun Yao mustered up the courage to speak: "Emperor, all of this is because of me. I don't want to marry Zhuo. He and I are truly in love. Please grant us your blessing."

He had never expected Yun Yao to say this, and was deeply moved. He also knelt down and prayed to the Emperor to grant him and Yun Yao a happy marriage.

"Father, please help us."

The Emperor looked at Yun Yao, then at He, and said, "You are too presumptuous! Princess Suzaku is of noble status. Only she is worthy of Zhuo, the crown prince. How can you, a wicked son, be worthy of competing with your brother?"

Who knew the Emperor wouldn't agree so easily?

The Emperor had never liked him since he was a child and didn't consider him his son at all.

He held Yun Yao's hand tightly, "Yao'er, I will not give up on you, even if it means making the whole world my enemy."

Yun Yao looked at He with emotion, her eyes full of determination.

Seeing that his daughter had angered the Emperor, Gabuna was afraid that it would affect the Suzaku clan.

He scolded Yun Yao, "Yao'er, do not offend the Emperor. Apologize to the Emperor quickly and ask for his forgiveness. Come back with me to prepare for the wedding. You don't have to see He again."

When Yun Yao heard her father's words, tears welled up in her eyes, but she still shook her head stubbornly, "Father, my love for He is as strong as gold. I will never marry anyone else in this life. If you want me to marry Zhuo, I would rather die."

He protected Yun Yao behind him and faced the Emperor directly, "Father, even though you are the Emperor, you can't force a couple to break up like this. Yun Yao and I are in love, and Zhuo has his own destiny. Why do you have to interfere?"

The Emperor laughed in anger, "How dare you, you unfilial son, contradict me like this? The marriage between Princess Suzaku and Zhuo concerns the union of our two clans and the political situation of the world. How can your sentimental feelings influence it?"

Being scolded by his father was a common occurrence, but this time was different. Besides shock, He's eyes were filled with resentment and even more hatred.

In the eyes of the Emperor, he was worse than a dog. Even if he died, the Emperor wouldn't even blink an eye.

At this time, Zhuo, who had been hiding in the dark, stood up.

He bowed to the Emperor and said, "Father, if Yunyao and He truly love each other, I am willing to withdraw. I do not want to cause them pain because of this marriage, nor do I want to see the world in turmoil because of us."

The Emperor's eyes widened, as if he couldn't believe Zhuo would say such a thing. "Do you know what you are saying? As the crown prince, how can you be so soft-hearted?"

During the Flower Goddess Festival last year, Zhuo Ye fell in love with Yun Yao at first sight. Unfortunately, Yun Yao had never met him in person and did not know him.

When his father said he would arrange a marriage for him, he took the initiative to propose marrying the goddess Yun Yao.

But he didn't know that the goddess Yun Yao already had someone in her heart, and that person happened to be his brother.

"I believe that the Crown Prince's responsibility is not just to arrange marriages, but also to care about the empire. If forced, even if I marry Yun Yao, it will be difficult to gain the Suzaku clan's true allegiance, and it may even sow the seeds of disaster."

Zhuo is kind-hearted and willing to help others, which surprises Yun Yao.

She didn't know how to face this "fiancé" to begin with, and now this made her feel even more guilty towards him.

Looking across Xuanyu, only the Suzaku clan has the strength and status to shoulder the responsibility of marrying into the Zhuo clan.

The Emperor's life is coming to an end, and he does not want chaos in the divine world after his death.

He ordered Hehezhuo to return to Wuya and asked Jiabuna to take Yunyao back to Yuejian Mountain first.

"Tomorrow's wedding will proceed as normal," the Emperor sternly warned Jabuna, "If you disobey my order, the Suzaku clan will regard you as a traitor to our dragon clan."

Zhuo and He followed the emperor back.

Gabriella returns to Yuejian Mountain with the disheartened Yunyao.

Mu Shuiqi was heartbroken watching from the side. She asked Liu Huo, "If it were you, what would you do?"

Liu Huo was confused by the question, "Who are you assuming I am?"

"Suppose you are the goddess Yunyao, my mother."

Liu Huo snorted coldly, "I'm not a woman, I don't understand."

"Then suppose you are He."

"Then... fight to the end." Liu Huo said in a cold and hard tone.

Mu Shuiqi was deeply troubled, as if she were the protagonist in the story. "But doing so would make us public enemies, putting the Dragon and Suzaku clans in a dilemma."

Liu Huo was disdainful of this, as he had never cared about anyone. So from his perspective, "I don't have such a big vision. I just want to be with the one I love for the rest of my life."

Mu Shuiqi was shocked by his straightforward words. He was just an illusion, did he really understand love?

Forget it, it’s useless to ask him.

These things happened to our parents' generation. They have already happened and cannot be changed.

She was very curious. Since her mother had been in a relationship with He and had such deep feelings for him, and later married Zhuo, how could she be killed by He?

How could he be so cruel as to exterminate the entire Suzaku clan?

Is it because he hates the goddess Yun Yao for marrying Zhuo?

Liu Huo suddenly said lightly, "Mu Shuiqi, whether you are Zhuo's child or He's child is still unknown."

"Don't talk nonsense!"

Mu Shuiqi had already thought of this, and she felt vaguely uneasy. However, she didn't dare to jump to conclusions until she saw the end.

So far, she hasn't seen how things have progressed with her mother.

But at least my mother and He truly love each other so far.

What will happen at tomorrow's wedding?

This night is bound to be tormenting.

Whether it is for Yun Yao, He, or Zhuo, it is equally difficult.

Mu Shuiqi felt the same way and was extremely nervous.

Yun Yao sat alone at her dressing table until midnight, unable to sleep.

In the middle of the night, a group of maids came in carrying all kinds of things to help her dress up and change into wedding clothes.

The servants were busy running around.

Yun Yao sat still, letting them busy themselves without saying a word.

She was not happy at all at the originally festive wedding, so the servants naturally did not dare to congratulate her.

Princess Lu Mei of Suzaku came to Yun Yao's room and wanted to have some private words with her daughter.

"Grandma is so beautiful, she is worthy of being the Princess of Suzaku." Mu Shuiqi couldn't help but sigh when she saw Lu Mei.

Liu Huo sneered, "I know everyone in your family is beautiful, so there's no need to brag in front of me."

Mu Shuiqi tilted her head and looked at him. "You are also very handsome. It is also because my mother is beautiful and her spiritual power has nurtured your handsomeness."

Liu Huo was a little uncomfortable when Mu Shuiqi suddenly praised him for his good looks, and his expression suddenly became much more obedient.

"Yao'er, mother knows that even if I try to persuade you to let go now, you will never listen."

Lu Mei sat beside Yun Yao and held her hand in hers. How could a mother not feel distressed when her daughter looked so worried?

"Mother, what should I do?" Yun Yao bit her lip, trying hard to control her tears from falling.

"I sent someone to check it out. Maybe this person is not as simple as you thought." Lu Mei stared at Yun Yao seriously.

Yun Yao was stunned. "What do you mean?"

"I heard that he's been very close to Long Jue and Long Sheng recently. Some of our tribesmen have seen them meeting in a forest somewhere."

"This... doesn't mean that Long Jue and Long Sheng's recent rebellion has anything to do with him." Yun Yao knew that He would never betray the God Realm.

Greenberry sighed, "There's one more thing, but I have no idea and no proof."

Yun Yao was startled, "Mother, please tell me what you want."

"You know, although most of our people live in Yuejian Mountain, we are a bird tribe after all, and we like to travel around. Therefore, some of us are well-informed and will always come across some secrets."

"What's the secret about He?"

"Yes, someone from the tribe told me that they saw He and Princess Shangli of the Peacock Tribe having a secret meeting in the forest ten days ago."
