Chapter 218: A Sneak Attack from Hou Tu

~7 min read 1,297 words

Get out of here!

A cold shout rang out, making Yunhua Immortal Maiden and Princess Longji, who had just come back from playing with the children, blink in surprise.

Husband, how did you offend the empress mother?

Princess Longji said with some concern.

After all, relations with her father the emperor have not yet eased; the only side she can rely on is her empress mother.

If she also offends the empress mother, their situation with the children will become even more difficult.

Don't worry, husband is not someone who doesn't know his limits; I'm sure there must be some misunderstanding here!

Immortal Maiden Yunhua comforted them.

Honestly, is it necessary to fly into such a rage?

Ao Yifan, swept out of the Jade Pool by a gust of wind, tidied his clothes and muttered softly: "It seems pregnant women have quite tempers; even heavenly beings can't escape that."

Just then, Ao Yifan saw Immortal Maiden Yunhua and Princess Longji flying over with the children.

Husband, what happened? Why did you make the empress mother angry?

Princess Longji asked.

Cough, actually it's nothing; just when discussing the bride price with your empress mother, we didn't quite see eye to eye.

Ao Yifan said with a light cough.

Bride price?

They both blinked in surprise, and Princess Longji and Immortal Maiden Yunhua were stunned.

As for the bride price, they had lived in the mortal world for so long, so they naturally knew what it was.

Yet they never imagined that one day such a matter would fall upon them.

Husband, how much bride price does the empress mother want? I still have plenty of things; let me go get them for you.

Princess Longji said worriedly.

Hearing that, Ao Yifan felt moved, stepped forward and pulled both women into his arms in one sweep.

Ladies, as your husband, how could I use your belongings for the bride price? Rest assured, I've already decided what to give my mother-in-law; she will surely like it!

Husband!

Leaning in Ao Yifan's embrace, Immortal Maiden Yunhua and Princess Longji felt very happy.

After all, to encounter such a responsible man is their fortune.

Meanwhile, Ao Zhan and the other children, watching their loving parents, also showed innocent smiles.

Indeed, Father is the best person in this world; we must take him as our example!

……

Forget it; for now I'll go out for a stroll, so I won't stay in the Jade Pool and make her angry.

After bidding farewell to Immortal Maiden Yunhua and Princess Longji, Ao Yifan thought it over and prepared to go to Three Immortals Island to have a look.

After all, the last time Qiong Xiao exploited her pure body to gain spiritual treasures was truly despicable; he could not simply let it go.

At least, half of the spiritual treasures she gained should be mine; hard-earned money must not be wasted!

Thinking thus, Ao Yifan flew down to the lower realm.

……

How long do we have to wait here?

The girl A Cha sat boredly on a patch of cloud, looking at Hou Tu Niangniang nearby and asked.

Until the person I'm waiting for arrives!

Hou Tu Niangniang closed her eyes tightly and said calmly.

"Wait, wait, wait," you've said this who knows how many times; tell me, what exactly are we waiting for?

The girl A Cha asked helplessly.

Waiting for an opportunity, for you and for me!

Hou Tu Niangniang said.

An opportunity?

The girl A Cha looked puzzled; she couldn't figure out what this woman was scheming.

Here they come!

Suddenly, Hou Tu Niangniang's tightly shut eyes flew open, and she fixed her gaze on the figure descending from the heavenly realm.

It's about to begin!

At the same time, Zhenyuanzi, accompanied by Qing Feng and Ming Yue, concealed their aura with the Heaven-Earth Treasure Mirror and watched everything.

"Master, could it be that Hou Tu Niangniang is preparing to act against the heavenly realm's people?"

Qing Feng couldn't help but ask.

The positions of the heavenly, earthly, and human realms are actually not that clearly differentiated in terms of hierarchy nowadays.

However, all the immortals of the three realms are well aware that the heavenly realm has always harbored the ambition to rule over the three realms.

However, because the heavenly realm lacks sufficient strength, it has hesitated to act.

Now, if Hou Tu Niangniang, who represents the underworld, were to act against the heavenly realm's people, then the heavenly realm would have a pretext to command all immortals and target the underworld.

That would absolutely be a catastrophe sweeping across the three realms!

"That person seems to be His Majesty Haotian's son-in-law; how could Hou Tu Niangniang act against him?"

Ming Yue also recognized Ao Yifan's identity and couldn't help but say: "Master, should we help him?"

To be honest, Ming Yue still has a good impression of Ao Yifan.

After all, Ao Yifan helped the Five Zhuang Temple resolve the trouble caused by the Western Teaching, and even treated her to delicious golden cicada meat.

The taste of that steamed golden cicada meat still leaves her with endless aftertaste.

So, Mingyue spoke up, asking her master whether they should help him.

Beside her, Qingfeng also said, "That person is quite decent as a person; given his status, he might even win the favor of the Heavenly Realm."

Glancing at Qingfeng and Mingyue behind him, Zhen Yuanzi calmly said, "Stay calm and don't be impatient; just keep watching."

Hearing that, Qingfeng and Mingyue said nothing more, instead seriously watching the changes in the field.

They've made a move!

The two women's hearts tightened; looking at the enormous wheel that blotted out the sky, they couldn't help but gulp nervously.

This is the ultimate treasure of the Underworld, the Six Paths Reincarnation Disk!

Rumor has it that this powerful spiritual treasure can control the life-and-death rebirth of all beings in the Three Realms!

……

This is!

Looking at the endless huge wheel beneath his feet, Ao Yifan immediately recognized its origin.

However, Ao Yifan did not panic; he simply called out loudly, "Dao Friend Hou Tu, please come out and meet me—I believe I have not offended you, Dao Friend. Could there be some misunderstanding between us?"

As Ao Yifan's words fell, in the next moment two figures slowly appeared on the reincarnation disk—none other than Hou Tu Niangniang and the girl Acha.

You……

Ao Yifan was about to speak when the girl Acha hastily said, "Don't look at me—I also don't know why this woman suddenly went mad and wants to attack you; I'm innocent!"

After glancing at the girl Acha, Ao Yifan stared deeply at Hou Tu Niangniang and said, "Dao Friend Hou Tu, I need an explanation!"

If we really talk about it, Ao Yifan now isn't afraid of Hou Tu Niangniang, after all, this place is not the Underworld, not her home turf.

Yet he can draw on a portion of the Heavenly Realm's fortune, and it remains uncertain who will prevail.

But if not necessary, Ao Yifan does not wish to contend with this invincible one.

It's not because he's bewitched by her beauty; rather, the Underworld is extremely important, and it is a force Ao Yifan must strive to win over in the future.

Moreover, he has always upheld the principle of valuing harmony, and does not wish to become enemies with such an ancient great god.

Dao Friend, could you help me accomplish the Way of the Six Paths of Reincarnation?

As soon as Hou Tu Niangniang spoke, Ao Yifan was so startled his jaw almost dropped.

After all, what virtue or ability does he have to participate in such a high-level topic?

After all, he himself knows very well his own capabilities.
