Chapter 1946

Add to that her status and power, her infinite abilities—quite simply, Kasumigaoka Uta had long since decided on him.

But she was, after all, just an ordinary person, prone to nervousness, prone to backing down.

She picked up her phone and sent a message to Kato Megumi.

She waited a long time, but saw no read receipt.

"It's so early—could she already be asleep?"

After all the events of the day, Kasumigaoka Uta didn't believe Kato Megumi was already asleep.

A thought struck her—perhaps the other had gone to Dalu Tian.

Given Kato Megumi's courage, this wasn't impossible.

Kasumigaoka Uta immediately called, but the line remained unanswered for a long time.

"So bold?"

Kasumigaoka Uta was stunned; she activated the mark on her brow, and in the next instant, a portal appeared in her bedroom.

She tidied herself slightly and stepped inside.

In the blink of an eye, heaven and earth changed.

One moment she was in a dimly lit room, the next she stood in a world radiant as daylight, where divine birds soared through the sky, bathed in auspicious clouds and radiant light.

As soon as she stepped in, Kasumigaoka Uta felt her body suffused with ease, as if a fish had returned to water.

"This is Dalu Tian—no wonder it's the abode of immortals."

As she marveled, a streak of immortal light descended, taking the form of a young girl.

"Miss Kasumigaoka, the Dao Lord knew you were coming and instructed me to wait here for you."

The girl was native to the Taixuan World, immensely powerful, long having reached the Precursor Saint realm, with a primordial divine-demon lineage.

In other worlds, she would be a supreme power.

Here, she was merely a celestial maiden serving guests.

She looked at Kasumigaoka Uta and felt a flicker of envy: "Miss Kasumigaoka is truly lucky—she's won the Master's favor."

You must understand that among the countless beings of the Taixuan Realm, such an opportunity might not arise for one person even in hundreds of millions of years.

"Greetings, Immortal. Has Kato Megumi arrived?" Kasumigaoka Uta asked.

The celestial maiden nodded: "Don't call me Immortal—Miss Kasumigaoka may call me Biyun. You mean the mortal Kato Megumi? She arrived earlier—I was the one who guided her."

Kasumigaoka Uta understood at once: "So it was true."

"Let's go," Biyun suggested. "Miss Kato is currently attending the Immortal Banquet with the Dao Lord—you've arrived just in time!"

Kasumigaoka Uta nodded: "Please, Biyun Immortal, lead the way."

Biyun summoned a auspicious cloud and carried Kasumigaoka Uta toward distant palaces radiating strange, dazzling lights.

……

World of the Background Heroine.

Eri was drawing, but her mind was elsewhere.

After the events of the day, her heart remained agitated.

"I wonder what Kasumigaoka Uta and Kato Megumi are doing now—are they also excited, unable to sleep, just like me?"

Thinking this, Eri took out her phone and sent a message to both of them.

After waiting a while, she checked her phone and was startled.

"No read receipts? It can't be that both are asleep."

Eri sat up straight and called Kasumigaoka Uta—only to receive a message that the number was out of service.

She called Kato Megumi next—same response.

"No way—did both of them go to Dalu Tian?"

She opened the chat group.

Eri: "Just called Kato Megumi and Kasumigaoka Uta—they're both out of service. Did they go to Dalu Tian?"

Su Xiao: "Something's up! Su Xiao radar activated!"

Xiao Mai: "Xiao Mai's here—I'm here for the drama!"

Xiao Yan: "I'm here too."

Kasumigaoka Uta: "You really are the drama trio. @Eri, you're right—they both arrived, one after the other."

Eri: "????"

Su Xiao: "What happened? 【Mr. Ma emoji】"

Eri: "Wasn't the Dao Lord visiting my world earlier? … But they only met today—how did they end up in Dalu Tian tonight?"

Su Xiao: "Oh! I get it!"

Su Xiao: "Eri's become a loser again!"

Yotsuya Miko: "That's the true value of the Loser Immortal!"

Kasumigaoka Uta: "666, I'm giving Eri a like."

Xiao Mai: "World-famous painting: 'Eri Drawing in Her Sketchbook'—hilarious!"

Eri: "Aaaah! Why is this happening?! Kasumigaoka Uta was such a coward—how did she suddenly figure it out?!"

Su Xiao: "Because she really figured it out. 【Evil grin】"

Hu Yifei: ". ‖ Waaah, the little train's coming! 【Little Train】"

Kasumigaoka Uta: "By the way, Eri—will you come too?"

Eri: "Me? I'm going too!"

Eri: "You didn't even tell me about this big thing? Hmph—I was first!"

Tokisaki Kasumi: "B-Bai Xue-ologist?!"

Gabriel: "When you run into a Bai Xue-ologist, beat them first—it's never wrong."

Kasumigaoka Utaha: "I'll open the door for you!"

Bai Suzhen: "【Arrogant】 【Hands on hips】 I've already reached the Divine Power realm now—it's time to go back."

Su Xiaoxiao: "By the way, has this Bai Xue Princess grown crooked? In the fairy tale, Bai Xue Princess is clearly a pure and cute princess—so why does she now feel like a tough girl?"

Xiaomai: "This has to be your fault, Xiaoxiao!"

Su Xiaoxiao: "??? How is it my fault again?"

Bai Suzhen: "Why should I be the princess everyone imagines? I want to be a princess not defined by anyone!"

Alice: "Sounds so amazing! 【Eyes sparkling】"

Luo (Wang de de) Wei: "Alice, don't copy that! If Alice really turned out like that, she'd really be ruined."

Luo Wei: "Actually, Bai Xue Princess being like this may not be without the Underworld's influence."

Ijichi Nijika: "Does being a deity in the Underworld have any harmful effects?"

Luo Wei: "The divine office itself isn't harmful, but Bai Xue saw too much of humanity's ugly side in the Underworld, so she grew crooked. In the future, children still shouldn't go work in the Underworld—it can easily affect their minds."

Tony: "Seconded. Being exposed to darkness too early really isn't good for a child's growth. This point should be written into the chat group's official documents."

Bai Suzhen: "!! But I don't feel like there's any problem?"

Bai Suzhen: "Forget it, enough talk—I'm going to take my revenge. Shu."

【Ding—Bai Suzhen has started a livestream. Come watch, everyone!】

Su Xiaoxiao: "Heh, looks like it's another day of loving mothers and filial daughters!"

【Ding—Su Xiaoxiao has entered the livestream room!】
