I am a fairy in Journey to the West

Julan Mountain, Wuyan Cave.

The Celestial Fox Immortal lay on the couch, coughing incessantly, with a beautiful woman attending to him.

Under the beautiful woman's meticulous care, the old fox immortal's cough improved considerably, and his breathing became smoother.

"Alright, alright." The Celestial Fox Immortal turned his head to look at the beautiful woman and said, "Don't worry about me anymore, I don't have much time left to live."

The beautiful woman's tears fell immediately, her eyes filled with resentment. "Mother, you should rest well. You will definitely get better. As for this revenge, I will definitely take it."

Upon hearing this, the Celestial Fox Immortal coughed again, his eyes fixed on the beautiful woman, wanting to speak but unable to utter a word.

The beautiful woman quickly stepped forward to calm the old fox spirit's anger. After a while, the old fox spirit looked at the beautiful woman and said, "This is what I brought upon myself. Who do you want to take revenge on?"

The beautiful woman said, "The Jade Palace of the Mortal Realm, the True Immortal Fire Spirit—if it weren't for them, how could Mother have been so badly injured?"

The Celestial Fox Immortal said, "You are wrong. Fortune and misfortune have no fixed gate; they are summoned by oneself. You cannot blame others, much less the Jade Palace of the Mortal World."

"Listen, you're not allowed to hold this grudge, or I'll die with my eyes open!" the Celestial Fox Immortal said, staring at the beautiful woman.

The beautiful woman lowered her head. Seeing this, the old fox spirit became anxious and coughed again. The beautiful woman quickly regulated her breathing.

But at this moment, the Celestial Fox Immortal spat out a mouthful of blood essence. The beautiful woman turned pale with fright at the sight. Looking at her mother's face, she hurriedly said, "Mother, don't worry, I will never mention this matter again."

The Celestial Fox Immortal gradually calmed down, but lay on the bed as if he had lost all his strength. "Really?"

"Really," the beautiful woman said, wiping away her tears. "Mother, you should rest well; you will definitely get better."

The Celestial Fox Immortal shook his head and laughed, "I've lived enough. Apart from those immortal saints, no one in the world can escape reincarnation. I've come to terms with it."

The beautiful woman simply wiped the blood from the corner of the Heavenly Fox Immortal's mouth while shedding tears.

Three days later, the Celestial Fox Immortal finally succumbed to his injuries, exhausting his life force and lifespan, and passed away peacefully in the Faceless Cave.

The removal of Murugan from the celestial ranks caused quite a stir within the Brahma community.

Murugan is Shiva's son. Even Shiva couldn't protect his son's status as a celestial being, which shows the power of the Jade Palace in the mortal realm.

When Shiva returned to the Brahma realm, he issued a decree ordering his followers to cease interfering in Liu Chenxiang's affairs.

Although Shiva once blessed Liu Chenxiang, he is now a wanted criminal by the Jade Palace of the Mortal Realm, so he should not interfere in this matter anymore.

Shiva's decree appeared to be an act of submission to the Jade Palace of the Mortal Realm, but only Shiva himself knew that he seemed to have fallen into a trap.

It is possible that Liu Chenxiang is not a reincarnation of Buddha, but a pawn thrown out by Buddhism.

The Buddhist sect had long known that the Third Holy Mother had violated the Heavenly Laws by marrying a mortal, so the Jade Palace of the Mortal Realm would surely capture the Third Holy Mother and Liu Chenxiang.

If the Buddhist sect were to protect Liu Chenxiang at this time, it would inevitably clash with the Jade Palace of the Mortal Realm.

The consequences of this are obvious, as evidenced by the fact that Murugan was stripped of his immortal status.

"The Buddhist sect wants to use the Jade Palace of the Mortal Realm to weaken my Brahma religion." After realizing this, Shiva issued that decree.

Shiva understood this, but his wife Parvati couldn't.

After Shiva issued that decree, Parvati came to find Shiva in a menacing manner.

“Ancestor,” Parvati asked Shiva with a furious expression, “didn’t you know that your son had been stripped of his celestial status?”

Shiva laughed and said, "Of course I know."

Parvati said, "Then why did you issue that decree? Aren't you afraid of being laughed at? Our son was bullied by outsiders, and you are so cowardly. Does that mean anyone can bully our family in the future?"

“Parvati, calm down,” Shiva said. “This is a conspiracy.”

At this point, Shiva told Parvati about the Buddhist scheme, saying, "This is the scheme of those Buddhist thieves."

“I don’t care about any scheming or not,” Parvati said angrily. “All I know is that my son has been stripped of his divine status. The son of the primordial Shiva can now only be a demon in the mortal realm.”

Shiva said, "Parvati, being stripped of your celestial status is no big deal. With Murugan's abilities and my presence, he will eventually regain his celestial status." Parvati said, "Stop making excuses. This is cowardice. Since you don't dare to stand up for your son, then I will."

After saying this, Parvati ignored Shiva and turned to leave.

Seeing her like this, Shiva hurriedly called out, "Parvati, come back quickly, you mustn't do anything reckless."

Parvati pretended not to hear and turned to leave with her maids.

Seeing that a major disaster was about to occur, Shiva quickly got up and appeared in front of Parvati in a flash, blocking her way.

Parvati was even more furious when Shiva blocked her way. "Fine, it seems I have to defeat you first."

After saying that, Parvati transformed herself and directly revealed her dark form, 'Kali'.

Parvati transformed into a giant three thousand feet tall, wielding a long sword and emanating a destructive aura.

At this moment, the entire Brahma Realm trembled violently. Destructive auras emanated from Kali, constantly impacting the entire Brahma Realm. In an instant, life was ravaged and the heavens and earth collapsed.

Even the Vedic kingdoms outside the Brahma realm were greatly impacted. Mountains began to shake, temples, palaces, and houses began to collapse, and signs of the end times shrouded the entire Brahma realm and its surrounding continent.

Seeing Parvati's anger, Shiva revealed his true form as Kali, and for a moment could only try to reason with him.

But Kali ignored him completely, and the destructive power emanating from her body continued to surge, relentlessly impacting the Great Brahma Realm.

Just then, the other two primordial beings, Brahma and Vishnu, arrived. Brahma said to Shiva, "Kali's form is extremely destructive. If she wants to go and avenge Murugan, let her go. Don't stop her."

Shiva said, "If she descends to the mortal realm, she will inevitably become enemies with the Jade Palace of the Mortal World, and then things will likely turn out badly."

Vishnu said, “Heaven has its own destiny. If she is truly destined to descend to the mortal realm to contend with the Jade Palace of the Mortal World, you cannot stop her. It is better to let nature take its course.”

Upon hearing this, Shiva fell silent. At this moment, Vishnu advised again, "If you hesitate any longer, the Brahma realm will be destroyed."

Shiva immediately raised his head, then looked at the enormous Kali before him and said, "Alright, since you want to go, I won't stop you."

Upon hearing this, the destructive power emanating from Kali instantly ceased its outpouring and then transformed back into Parvati.

Although still angry, Parvati bowed to Brahma and Vishnu, the two progenitors, and then, without even glancing at Shiva, flew away from the Brahma realm on a cloud.

Shiva looked helpless, then invited Brahma and Vishnu to his temple for a chat, and told them his guess.

After listening, Brahma said, "This is not impossible. Those Buddhas are the most insidious. Liu Chenxiang is very likely just a pawn."

Vishnu said, “But Murugan has been stripped of his celestial status, and Parvati is already involved. Even if we know it’s a scheme, it’s not easy to unravel.”

Brahma nodded and said, "That's right. Parvati's anger must be vented, otherwise the Kali Dharma Form can change at any time, and even the Great Brahma Realm cannot withstand it."

Vishnu said, "The next step is to restrain the people in the sect and prevent them from following Parvati in opposing the Jade Palace of the Mortal Realm, so as to avoid greater losses."

Therefore, Brahma and Vishnu also issued a decree, admonishing those in the faith to focus solely on dealing with Buddhism and not to interfere in anything unrelated to dealing with Buddhism.

After Parvati descended to the mortal realm, she first went to see her son, Murugan, and told him, "Don't worry, although I cannot restore your celestial status, as your mother, I will definitely stand up for you."

Upon hearing Parwati's words, Murugan's initial joy at seeing his mother vanished instantly, and he even broke out in a cold sweat.

“Mother, I have broken the laws of Heaven, which is why I have been punished by the Jade Palace of the Mortal Realm and stripped of my immortal status. It is all my fault,” Mulugan said hurriedly.

But Parvati wouldn't listen to his explanation, saying, "Good child, you don't need to be afraid. Since your father won't stand up for you, how can I, as his mother, sit idly by and watch my son be bullied?"

Finally, Parvati handed some elixirs, magical medicines, and rare fruits to Murugan, and stood up to say to him, "You just stay here and watch your mother vent her anger for you, and then she will take you back to the Great Brahma Realm."

After saying that, Parvati transformed into a beam of light and flew out of the bamboo hut. Murugan couldn't stop her in time and could only watch helplessly as Parvati disappeared into the sky.

Murugan was so anxious that he paced back and forth. After a long while, he suddenly remembered something, quickly went back into the house, took out the statue of Shiva, and then reported the matter to Shiva.

But Shiva did not appear in the end; only four large words slowly appeared before Murugan's eyes: "Let her be." (End of Chapter)
