Chapter 72 - Be my Queen

Taiyi left the east sea and took a trip to the emotion severing cliff to pay the old man a visit. He did not forget to sneak into the god of wines palace and 'take' some of his secret collection without anyone noticing. When he arrived at the emotion severing cliff he found the old man waiting for him at the foot of the mountain." I have come to pay you a visit one last time," Taiyi said as he took out a bottle of wine and threw it to the old man." It seems that the battle ahead will not be an easy one even for you or else you wouldn't be doing this," the old man said. Taiyi just smiled at this and did not comment on this. He just wanted to spend this day with his master after all he felt that it has been a long time since he last spoke to his master. He felt that he was an unfilial disciple that had failed in his duties as he did not take care of his master. As he stared at his master he realised that over the years time had left some traces on his master's face. He secretly sighed. He has failed in his duties but he did not regret any of his decisions over the years as he had duties not only to his master but also to the people of the whole six realms, the three seas and the eight deserts." The battle ahead seems to have forced you to make difficult choices," the old man said as he took the wine bottle and stared at his disciple. Before this master of his no matter how powerful Taiyi is it seems that his master was always stronger than him." Have you finally decided to get involved or will you just watch as always?" Taiyi asked as he drank from his bottle." It all comes down to fate. Cause and effect. There are things that you must understand that I will never be part of," the old man said." I have been fighting the so called fate my whole life and I have finally managed to free myself from it's clutches and I am sure you can do the same. It's fine if you don't want to get involved I only ask you guys to protect this place maybe it will be of use in the future," Taiyi said after which they no longer spoke about the war rather they spoke about the past. They spent three days and two nights reminiscing about the past and in those three days Taiyi felt at peace. His sword was still in the process of evolution so Taiyi just left it there. He wanted to leave with it but his master told him not to do so as he already had other plans and if successfully the sword would become much stronger so Taiyi chose to leave it there. After leaving the emotion severing cliff Taiyi headed to the fire realm and sneaked into Feng Jiu's sleeping chambers. He found that she was already asleep. Although gods did not need to sleep Feng Jiu still loved doing it as it gave her a certain kind of peace. Even if one was a god it would probably be boring if you had to spend about a million years without sleeping which was why Feng Jiu loved to sleep. Atleast it made her feel like life as a god is not that boring and it also reminds her of the experience in the mortal realm.

Taiyi stared at his beautiful wife who was asleep and did not even bother to hide his infatuation. Feng Jiu seemed to sense something and opened her eyes. She turned her head to the other side of the bed only to find Taiyi staring at her. Moreover Taiyi was on the same bed as her and with his pajamas to make matters worse. Feng Jiu stared at him. Taiyi also stared back at her with a smile on his face." I just realised that I failed to give you an actual wedding," Taiyi said while extending his hands to caress Feng Jiu's face. Feng Jiu smiled at this and closed her eyes to enjoy the moment." Should I take that as you proposing to me?" Feng Jiu asked with a teasing smile as she pushed Taiyi and changed positions. She was now sleeping at the top while Taiyi was below. Taiyi just stared at her and allowed her to do whatever she felt like doing." You can say so," Taiyi answered as he waved his hands. The duo then disappeared together with the bed in the room. After a while they crossed space and appeared on a beautiful realm. The realm was small and Feng Jiu's divine sense could fully cover the whole realm. Taiyi just smiled at this after which he sealed her divine sense and cultivation. When he was done he also sealed his. Feng Jiu was puzzled but she did not stop him as she trusted him." I want us to spend the day together without worrying for anything and besides I don't want us to use any of our powers in this realm," Taiyi said as he snapped his fingers after which a shower of flowers followed. Feng Jiu was captivated by the view before her and for a moment she was lost and did not know what to say. She got up from the bed and started playing in the flower rain. Taiyi just stared at her before he also stood up and walked towards a certain place. In that place was a structure which Taiyi walked into. After Taiyi entered, the sound of a zither was heard coming from inside the room. Feng Jiu heard the hypnotising zither sound and couldn't help but start dancing. Memories of the time she spent with Taiyi as his disciple started replaying on her mind and she couldn't help but smile as she had always wished for a moment like this when she would spent with Taiyi not as his disciple but as his wife and her wish had been fulfilled. The sound of the zither abruptly came to an end and Taiyi walked out of the structure with a crown on his hand. The crown was purely made of flowers and it was not fancy but many gods would know what this flower meant. This flower crown held immense significance in the six realms, three seas and eight deserts. The flower crown was last gifted by the ancestral god to his wife and since then it had never appeared and now another god had made it." This is the place where I was born and it is my natal realm. I brought her to celebrate this day with you and to grant you a title worthy of a beautiful lady as you," Taiyi said." Oh. I remember someone once said he is not good at saying sweet nothings?" Feng Jiu asked." Did I say that? Maybe I forgot because the last time I checked I had a few problems with my memory because of a face I couldn't seem to forget," Taiyi replied making Feng Jiu blush." It seems that not only did your personality change but even your mouth now has honey," Feng Jiu said." I guess it is not a bad thing of course I can allow you to have a taste," Taiyi said." I wouldn't mind but I think you were in the middle of something," Feng Jiu said with a teasing smile on her face. Taiyi pretended not to see it." Be my queen," Taiyi said with a smile on his face.
