Translator: Henyee Translations  Editor: Henyee Translations

“Great Empress Vermilion Bird, just issue the command, and we’ll burn that woman! Slutty b*tches like her need to be cleansed by our holy flames!” Vermilion Bird Nan Li was extremely enraged.

“Pfff…” An Lin couldn’t help but burst into laughter.

​ 

Teenage Xiaolan didn’t even know whether she should laugh or cry.

Was this idiot calling her a slutty b*tch and threatening to burn her to death?

Was she supposed to be happy to have such a loyal but stupid bird as a subordinate?

“Alright, that’s enough!” teenage Xiaolan snapped.

“Great Empress Vermilion Bird, you can’t just let this slide! If you do, you’ll only get cucked more and more in the future!” Vermilion Bird Nan Li could barely restrain itself anymore.

“Hehe, the young woman in the white dress you were referring to is me.” Teenage Xiaolan chuckled coldly.

“Wh… what?!” Vermilion Bird Nan Li stuttered as if it had received a heavy blow.

Slap!

Teenage Xiaolan cut off the voice transmission before slamming her voice transmission talisman onto the table.

An Lin was quite amused by the enraged teenage Xiaolan.

“What are you laughing at?!” Teenage Xiaolan glared at An Lin as she pursed her lips.

“Don’t get mad, everything’s alright now that the misunderstanding has been cleared up. Here, have some seafood!” An Lin consoled teenage Xiaolan by offering some food.

Nine-year-old Xiaolan had transformed into fifteen-year-old Xiaolan overnight, and she looked completely different, so they certainly couldn’t blame anyone for coming to this false conclusion.

Thus, after that farcical episode, An Lin and Xu Xiaolan continued to enjoy their time together.

Vermilion Bird Nan Li issued a statement to clarify the situation by revealing to everyone that the beautiful woman in the white dress was none other than their Great Empress Vermilion Bird, and this statement created quite a stir in Yue Tong City.

Of course, none of this impacted An Lin and Xu Xiaolan whatsoever. They continued to visit attractions and dine to their hearts’ content.

Their aim was to have as much fun as possible during lulls in the war.

Their divine senses could encompass vast areas, so they were the best scouting devices. No matter what the enemy tried to do, they could always accurately and quickly detect the situation.

Small scale battles were now completely pointless.

As such, the next battle could quite possibly be the final battle.

What were they supposed to do before the final battle? They had to make sure to get into their best condition, of course!

And that was exactly what An Lin and Xu Xiaolan were doing!

An Lin held teenage Xiaolan’s hand in his own and marveled at how soft and smooth it was!

After walking for a while, he couldn’t help but wrap an arm around teenage Xiaolan’s slender waist.

However, teenage Xiaolan soon slapped his hand away before turning to him with a cautionary expression.

An Lin immediately settled down.

Hmm, life was already very good, and one had to learn to be happy with what they had.

Happy days always passed by very quickly.

Before they knew it, three glorious days had passed by.

On that day, the crystal An Lin constantly carried with him suddenly lit up.

He was initially startled by this before a smile appeared on his face.

The Heavenly Sea God was finally contacting him!

This crystal was a clone of the Heavenly Sea God’s heart, and using it to communicate could prevent detection from the paramount Heavenly Gods, thereby making it an absolutely confidential method of communication.

An Lin immediately injected his consciousness into the crystal.

“Mr. An Lin, sorry to make you wait so long,” an ethereal voice sounded directly in his mind.

“I didn’t have to wait long at all. In fact, you have appeared on the Tai Chu Continent even before the time we agreed on,” An Lin responded.

“About that, that’s something I’ve been meaning to explain.” The Heavenly Sea God continued, “Even though I set things into motion a bit earlier than what we agreed upon, I didn’t hurt any of our allies.”

An Lin’s lips twitched upon hearing this. “Then what’s with all those natural disasters taking place in the West Sea?”

“That’s all for a show! If I didn’t do that, the other paramount Heavenly Gods would become suspicious toward me.” The Heavenly Sea God heaved a resigned sigh.

An Lin thought about this and decided that it made sense. It would indeed have been suspicious if the Heavenly Sea God had emerged, only to then slink away without doing anything.

An Lin was still a little displeased with what the Heavenly Sea God had done, but he knew that this was not the time to bicker about things like this as there were more important matters to be attended to.

“The reason I descended upon this world earlier than planned is that Nuwa’s mending of the heavens has already reached the third stage. The Heavenly Dao barrier is becoming more and more resolute, and if I don’t descend upon the Tai Chu Continent now, I will lose my chance to do so in the future…” The Heavenly Sea God sighed.

An Lin’s expression shifted slightly. “What’s this about the third stage of the mending of the heavens?”

“Aren’t you acquaintances with Nuwa? How do you not know about this?” The Heavenly Sea God was a little surprised.

“Er… I never asked her.” An awkward expression appeared on An Lin’s face.

“And she never told you?” The Heavenly Sea God was shocked.

An Lin sighed. “I have to join the Heaven Mending Sect before she tells me confidential information like this.”

“Then join the sect!” The Heavenly Sea God was bewildered.

“But I don’t want to be bound to any sect, and I don’t want to do anything against my will. I feel like it’s a trap,” An Lin revealed his reasoning.

“Are you retarded?” The Heavenly Sea God scoffed, “Just join the sect so that you can enjoy the benefits, and just refuse when they ask you to do something! You’re so powerful now, who’s going to be able to force you to do anything you don’t want to do? If worse comes to worst, you can just withdraw from the sect after enjoying all of the benefits they can offer you!”

An Lin’s mouth gaped open in astonishment.

How shameless!

He couldn’t believe that these words were coming out of the Heavenly Sea God’s mouth.

He was a paramount Heavenly God! Why was he speaking like such a shameless b*stard?

Where was his humility? Where was his credibility? Where was his prestige as a paramount Heavenly God?!

“Great idea!” An Lin nodded.

The Heavenly Sea God chuckled. “I’m glad you’ve finally seen the light. Thinking back, you would stoop to any lows as long as it meant you got what you wanted.”

“Don’t slander me! I am An Lin now, and I am a man of justice and moral compass!” An Lin retorted in a resolute voice.

“Yes yes yes, whatever you say,” the Heavenly Sea God placated.

“I think we’ve strayed a little too far from the matter at hand. What is this third stage in Nuwa’s mending of the heavens?” An Lin changed the subject.

The Heavenly Sea God elaborated, “The third stage is to repair the structure of the flawed Heavenly Dao. It’s basically like creating a skeleton for a living being. Only with a skeleton in place can blood and flesh develop.

“Once the structure is completely constructed, the Heavenly Dao will be further repaired, and it would be impossible for me to enter the Tai Chu Continent. This is why I had to enter the Tai Chu Continent in advance. However, I have suffered a strong backlash from forcing an early entry and will require time to recover from my injuries…”

An Lin was a little shocked. To think that Nuwa’s mending of the heavens could almost keep out a paramount Heavenly God. If her mending of the heavens could succeed, then wouldn’t it be much better than trying to crush the heavens?

An Lin thought about it for a moment before asking, “How long will you require to recover? Is the operation going to commence after you fully recover?”

The Heavenly Sea God replied, “There’s no need to wait for that long. Let me tell you some good news; I’ve successfully convinced the Heavenly Heaven God and the Heavenly Life Goddess that I am their ally and will work with them to kill Light and Earth. When the time comes, we can take out all four paramount Heavenly Gods in one fell swoop! Hehehe…”

An Lin: “!!!”
