This primordial world is not serious!

Chapter 919 - 462: Nuwa: Love-struck, Oh Love-struck! (Part 2)

Let this epoch, which should have had long years ahead, prematurely come to an end!

The Heavenly Emperor is deeply worried about the upcoming two-world war.

Now, the Nine Netherworld Demon Realm, which had been dormant for countless years, suddenly has a powerful Demon Lord emerging, holding a great weapon.

This undoubtedly adds a few more points of unease to his already worried heart.

"Continue to infiltrate the Nine Netherworld, and watch their every move closely."

A barely noticeable hint of killing intent flashed in the eyes of the Heavenly Emperor.

"If there are any other changes or intelligence, be sure to report to me."

"As you command!"

Hao Tian respectfully accepted the order immediately upon hearing this.

Although he felt nothing but disdain for this Heavenly Emperor.

Yet, from beginning to end, he displayed the perfect demeanor of a loyal and respectful subject.

"Oh, right."

Just as Hao Tian was about to leave the Three Lives Hall, the Heavenly Emperor suddenly called him back.

Looking at Hao Tian's always majestic face, he rarely showed a trace of concern, and said:

"Your infiltration into the Nine Netherworld is indeed fraught with peril, and a slight mistake could lead to life-and-death disaster."

"Here's what you'll do: take this decree of mine, and personally go to the Doushuai Temple beyond the Thirty-Three Heavens, to meet Daode Tianzun."

"Tell him it's I who sent you to request an elixir that can save your life."

Upon hearing these words, Hao Tian's face immediately showed an incredibly touched expression. He deeply bowed to the Heavenly Emperor once more.

"Thank you, Your Majesty, for such concern! Even if I were to be crushed, I can't repay the kindness of Your Majesty's recognition!"

The Heavenly Emperor, seeing this, smiled with satisfaction and waved his hand.

"Go now, Daode Tianzun is easy to talk to."

Thus, Hao Tian took the Heavenly Emperor's decree, with a heart full of "immense excitement and gratitude," left the Three Lives Hall, and flew towards the Doushuai Temple beyond the Thirty-Three Heavens.

~~~

Hao Tian arrived at the Doushuai Temple.

There, the purple aura was hazing like a sea, with palatial halls looming amidst it.

After handing the decree to the Golden Horn and Silver Horn for inspection, Hao Tian successfully met Daode Tianzun.

"The Heavenly Emperor sent you to ask me for a life-saving elixir?" Taishang smiled immediately upon seeing the decree.

Hao Tian cupped his hands and said, "Sorry to trouble you, Heavenly Venerate."

"No trouble, no trouble!"

Taishang readily agreed: "It's a simple matter!"

He thought for a moment and said, "Since you want a life-saving elixir, I'll make you a Golden Body Unbreakable Pill!"

"With this elixir, you will have supreme defensive ability!"

"Golden Body Unbreakable Pill?" Hao Tian thought this elixir reliable.

"Then this elixir it is!"

"Alright!"

Taishang nodded and said, "Come back in seven days to pick it up."

~~~

After leaving the Heavenly Realm, Hao Tian went to see the Phoenix Saint Feng Xi.

"You've come."

Her voice, as if heavenly music, was crisp and pleasant, and carried a trace of joy and anticipation even she didn't realize.

"Yes, I've come."

Hao Tian walked forward slowly, his face, always as cold as an iceberg, now melted like spring wind thawing, revealing a smile so tender that it could intoxicate any woman in the world.

What followed was a veritable textbook example of "sweet talk."

He didn't mention the blood-soaked calculations of the Divine Enthronement calamity, nor did he speak of the oppressive struggles of the Other Shore.

He only used his magnetic, deep voice to paint for Feng Xi a future full of poetic beauty.

He said, once all the world's disputes were completely settled, he would abdicate the position of Thunder God and together with her find a secluded paradise, sharing days watching the sunrise in the east and sunset in the west.

He said he would personally plant a vast forest full of Paradise Tree, so she could soar and roost freely in the most comfortable environment.

He also said he would traverse All Heavens and Myriads of Worlds to gather the sweetest Jadescent Nectar and pick the freshest Innate Spiritual Fruit, just to win her smile.

...

This tender and affectionate speech, though not a word was heartfelt, soon left the Phoenix Saint Feng Xi, who had lived countless epochs yet remained as emotionally naive as a blank page, utterly dizzy and disoriented.

Her eyes, always filled with pride and coldness, now shimmered with ripples and radiance, as she nearly melted into the gentle web named "love" that Hao Tian had woven.

After making this first Phoenix since the Creation of Heaven and Earth thoroughly pleased.

Hao Tian's gentle smile suddenly toned down a little.

In his deep eyes, unintentionally, a trace of worry and seriousness flashed, which he quickly concealed.

Even though he did it so discreetly.

How could Feng Xi, whose heart was completely tied to him, not notice?

"Have you... encountered some difficult trouble recently?"

Feng Xi's voice was full of concern as she gently touched Hao Tian's slightly furrowed brow with her delicate jade hand and softly asked.
