Chapter 1207

~7 min read 1,225 words

"His Majesty is saying he wants to offer my daughter to an immortal?"

Wu Shihuo's expression was suspicious; if the person speaking hadn't been Li Shimin, he would have wanted to curse.

An immortal?

Where would an immortal come from!

Could it be because a physiognomist said Zetian had the face of an emperor, so he wanted to sacrifice her?

Thinking of this, his heart felt cold.

This wasn't entirely for his daughter.

It was more out of worry for his own family!

An emperor's mind is the most vicious; cutting weeds and eliminating roots is something he would definitely do.

It was possible that after sacrificing Zetian, it would be the Wu family's turn next.

Wu Zetian's delicate body felt cold, and she couldn't believe it.

She had originally thought she was entering the inner palace, like a bird in a cage.

She never expected that her fate would be even more miserable.

She couldn't even be a bird in a cage; she could only be sacrificed to an immortal.

Was it a live sacrifice, or burning, or something else?

Thinking of this, Wu Zetian's face turned as pale as paper.

"I think the two of you have misunderstood!"

Li Shimin laughed loudly. "The immortal I'm talking about is a real immortal, not the kind of thing you imagine."

With a wave of his hand, a portal suddenly appeared in the void.

Wu Shihuo and Wu Zetian were shocked when they saw it.

The Emperor actually knew immortal arts?

"The two of you, follow me!"

Having said that, he walked in first.

Wu Shihuo and Wu Zetian looked at each other and followed closely behind, walking in.

Crossing the light gate, the two of them discovered that the world was vastly different.

The world before them was magnificent and atmospheric, with immortal light rippling.

Those miraculous giant beasts and those giant trees that blocked the sky all signaled that this was not the Great Tang world, but an unknown world.

Wu Shihuo was shocked, his voice trembling: "May I ask Your Majesty, is this the Immortal Realm?"

Li Shimin nodded: "That's right. This is the world created by the Daoist Lord, called the Taixuan Realm. And this is just the Earth Immortal Realm of the Taixuan Realm. If Miss Wu is sent to the Daoist Lord, she will still

have to go higher, straight to the Great Luo Heaven. That is the highest point of this world; even ordinary divine beings don't have the opportunity to go there."

"Great Luo Heaven?" Wu Shihuo looked up, his heart filled with shock.

Wu Zetian's mood was also like a roller coaster, fluctuating constantly.

A moment ago she thought she was going to be sacrificed, and in the blink of an eye, she had really arrived in a miraculous world and really might become a concubine of an immortal.

This change in treatment was too fast, leaving her unable to recover for a while.

Composing herself, she looked into the distance.

She saw mountains stretching endlessly, blocking the sky.

A fiery red tree shot into the sky, with a sun on it.

Further away, a towering tree stood, with a phoenix crying out on it.

All of this signaled the extraordinariness of this world.

Suddenly, a crisp voice rang out.

"Huh, who are you?"

"Are you also friends of Brother Taixuan?"

The three of them turned back and saw several little girls walking out of a light gate.

Li Shimin was surprised: "Who are you?"

"My name is Tachibana Kanade. They are Nakamura Yuri and Otonashi Hatsune. We came here together to cultivate."

Li Shimin laughed: "So it's Miss Tachibana; I am Li Erfeng, also a member of the group. I'm just bringing Miss Wu here to familiarize herself, and I'll be going back in a moment."

"So it's you." Tachibana Kanade's expression was calm, her gaze falling on Wu Zetian, a trace of surprise flashing in her eyes.

This future empress was indeed beautiful!

"Kanade, it's time to go!"

"Let's go to the cave dwelling!" Nakamura Yuri urged.

Tachibana Kanade nodded at the three of them and then left.

"Your Majesty, why does that girl have a head full of silver hair?" Wu Shihuo asked curiously after the group left. "Her eye color is different from ours. Could she be some kind of demon?"

Li Shimin was speechless: "Stop right there; this is no demon. They are just people from another world. Let's go, we should be going back too."

"Yes, Your Majesty."

Returning to the Taiji Hall and discussing matters again, Wu Shihuo's attitude changed drastically; he couldn't wait to send her over immediately.

Wu Zetian's brows were also filled with anticipation.

"There's no rush for this matter; you take Miss Wu back to prepare. Three days later, come to the palace again, and I will send you over."

"Your Majesty is right; we should indeed prepare."

Wu Shihuo and Wu Zetian hurriedly left the palace and returned home.

"Madam, great news!"

"What could make you lose your composure like this? Even if the Emperor wanted to appoint you as a high official, it wouldn't be like this, right?" Madam Wu asked, very puzzled.

【1207-62】

Wu Shihuo shook his head repeatedly: "This isn't a small matter like becoming an official. Do you know why the Emperor summoned us to the palace?"

"Why? Are you going to keep me in suspense?"

"The Emperor said he wants to send Zetian to a divine being with great magical powers!"

"Ah!" Madam Wu was startled. "Isn't that sacrificing Zetian? Even if Zetian is just a daughter, she is still our flesh and blood. How can you be so heartless and still be happy?"

【1207-67】

"Madam, what are you thinking!" Wu Shihuo naturally knew what his wife was thinking. "It's not the sacrifice you're thinking of; it's a real immortal. Let me tell you..."

"Is there really an Immortal Realm?"

"Of course there is. Zetian also went over with me; if you don't believe me, ask her." Wu Shihuo boasted, very proud. "I even saw people from other worlds, with silver hair and golden eyes; it was truly miraculous!"

【1207-71】

"Is there really such a mysterious thing?" Madam Wu was suspicious, fearing her husband was talking nonsense.

Wu Shihuo waved his hand: "Madam, you don't even believe me? Then go ask Zetian. By the way, the Emperor only gave us three days to prepare; in these three days, prepare a dowry for Zetian.

Zetian is a daughter of the Wu family; the dowry for her marriage must not be lacking!"

"Yes."

Madam Wu nodded and ran to the back courtyard, where she saw her daughter sitting in front of the dressing table, dazed.

"Zetian, what's wrong?"

"Mother, I'm fine, just a bit shocked." Wu Zetian came to her senses. "So there really are immortals and an Immortal Realm."

Madam Wu was surprised: "What your father said is actually true?"

Wu Zetian nodded: "Mm. It is indeed true; the Emperor took us to that Earth Immortal Realm..."

Seeing that the two of them said exactly the same thing, Madam Wu finally believed it, her face filled with smiles.

"Zetian, you rest first; I'll go prepare your dowry, and when the time comes, our family will send you to the Great Luo Heaven in style."

"Mm." Wu Zetian naturally had no objections.
