The Lord of Heaven asked

Chapter 22: Fairy Phoenix Enters Heaven

Deep in the starry sky, where the headquarters of the Heavenly Court is located, there are many palaces, magnificent and splendid. At this moment, in one of the many sleeping halls in the southwest, the little fairy phoenix that Ye Xiu brought back had just woken up.

At this moment, the little fairy phoenix named Yuan Li has transformed into a human body. He perfectly possesses the characteristics of the fairy phoenix clan, with a face as handsome as a jade, graceful and elegant, and handsome beyond compare. Just from his facial features, he looks like a first-class genius.

However, looking at his complexion, it is not difficult to find that this handsome young man seems to have suffered serious injuries, and his essence seems to be deficient. He needs good care to gradually recover.

When Yuan Li woke up slowly in bed, he was surprised to find that he had left the ancient battlefield and now he had turned into a human being, lying on the bed.

He wanted to prop himself up, but it agitated his injuries, causing Yuan Li to grit his teeth in pain. However, he didn't know where this place was or how he got here, and he was still wary of everything in front of him.

He urgently wanted to know where this place was and why he came here, so Yuan Li forced himself to stand up and looked around the palace he was in.

He remembered that he was ambushed in the ancient battlefield and was forced into a huge void crack. In other words, this should be the other end of the void crack, but he didn't know where it was in the fairyland.

Just as Yuan Li was still secretly looking at everything in front of him, with his mind turning over and over again, outside the door, a maid from Heaven who heard the noise came in, bowed and greeted Yuan Li.

"My lord, are you awake? Is there anything you need? Just tell me!"

Upon hearing this, Yuan Li hurriedly asked.

"Excuse me, young lady, where is this place? Why am I here?"

The maid bowed again and then answered.

"My lord, this is the Heavenly Palace. You live in the Qiwu Palace. Lord Tianzun brought you back to the Heavenly Palace personally, and he told us to take good care of you."

When Yuan Li heard this, he was stunned by the huge name of Heaven. You know, in the history of the entire fairyland, there is only one force that dares to call itself Heaven, and that is the force left behind by the Emperor Huang Tian who ascended to heaven.

But Yuan Li had also heard from the elders of the clan that the Heavenly Court had already ascended to heaven millions of years ago, and it should not have remained in the fairyland.

Then, could it be that a powerful person has re-established the Heavenly Palace? But the Immortal Phoenix Clan is also a major clan in the Immortal Realm, why haven't I heard of it before?
After thinking about it, Yuan Li asked again.

"May I ask, young lady, who is the current Lord of Heaven?"

The maid looked at Yuan Li in confusion and answered in a puzzled tone.

"The Lord of Heaven is naturally His Majesty the Emperor! It was His Majesty the Emperor who established Heaven and ruled the sea of ​​stars."

After hearing the maid's answer, Yuan Li became more confused. He waved his hand and asked the maid to leave first, then he frowned and thought about the problem on the bed.

Suddenly, he realized that something was wrong. He had been awake for a while, but Yuan Li did not sense the existence of the immortal essence from this place!
The Emperor I had never heard of, the Heaven that suddenly appeared, the huge crack in the void...

Then he looked at the protective weapon in his body which was full of cracks and almost completely broken. This was a treasure bestowed by the elders of the clan. It could even block the clan leader's full-strength attack for a moment, but now it was almost destroyed.

Yuan Li couldn't help but have a terrifying thought in his mind - could it be that he was no longer in the fairyland, but had gone to another universe?
This idea quickly expanded in his mind and soon occupied all of Yuan Li's thinking ability, making him feel cold in his hands and feet and his heart panicked to the extreme.

However, just as Yuan Li was sitting on the bed panicking, someone suddenly pushed the door open. It was not the maid from before, but an armored celestial soldier.

After the soldier entered the room, he bowed to Yuan Li and then spoke.

"Sir, the Lord of Heaven has ordered that since you have woken up, you should go see him."

God?
Yuan Li had heard this name mentioned by the maid before. It seemed that this was the person who brought him to the heavenly court. Just by hearing the name, he knew that this should be a strong man, and his status in this heavenly court was probably not ordinary. It was reasonable for him to make this trip.

Therefore, Yuan Li did not show any resistance. He also hoped to learn more about this world, which was probably an alien universe. It would be natural for him to meet the high-level mission here.

Soon, Yuan Li was dressed neatly, and followed the heavenly soldiers who came to invite him out of the palace gate. He passed through many palaces and finally arrived in front of a magnificent palace that looked extremely extraordinary.

After entering the palace gate alone, Yuan Li saw a Taoist platform. On the platform, a figure in a white robe sat alone.

When Yuan Li looked at it, the figure seemed to have turned into an entire universe, extremely grand, vast, incredible, and incomprehensible. It made his eyes slightly painful and he felt that he could not bear that kind of Tao rhyme.

Yuan Li immediately lowered his head and dared not look at him again. He knew that this person must be the Heavenly Venerable. Looking at the Immortal Realm, this person is probably also a powerful person who can compete with the ancestors of several major clans and several major sects. He is a true supreme being. At that moment, Yuan Li bowed deeply and then spoke.

"Yuan Li, I meet the Heavenly Lord!"

On the Taoist platform, Ye Xiu quietly watched Yuan Li saluting in front of him. In just a moment, he understood many of the original characteristics of the Immortal Phoenix clan.

Ye Xiu spoke only after Yuan Li finished his greetings.

"Wake up, a visitor from the fairyland, a pure-blooded phoenix at that, is quite rare."

Upon hearing this, Yuan Li was shocked. On the way to this place, Yuan Li also asked the heavenly soldiers who led the way indirectly and confirmed that this place was definitely not a fairyland, but a mortal universe where immortality could not be achieved.

Not only that, Yuan Li also found out that his hometown, the fairyland, was probably just a legend in this universe, and the heaven where he was now, should be the most powerful force in this world.

Therefore, Yuan Li had no hope of finding the way home in a short time, but he did not expect that after just meeting this supreme Heavenly Lord, his origins were revealed and he told it directly.

Besides being surprised, Yuan Li was also a little delighted. Does this mean that he has a way to return to the fairyland? With this thought in mind, he hurriedly asked Ye Xiu.

"Tianzun, do you know where the fairyland is? May I ask Tianzun, how can Yuanli return to the fairyland?"

Sitting on the seat, Ye Xiu did not say anything when he heard Yuan Li's question. Yuan Li then realized that he had lost his manners in front of a supreme being, and immediately his clothes were covered with cold sweat.

He quickly bowed deeply and said.

"Yuan Li was eager to return home and was impolite for a moment. I hope the Heavenly Lord will forgive me!"

At this time, Ye Xiu slowly spoke.

"It's okay. You are still young and left your hometown suddenly. You are naturally eager to return home now. I will not punish you."

"It's just that I don't have the method to return to the fairyland. The fairyland is so elusive and hard to find in this world, just like a legend."

"By the way, in this world, don't tell anyone about your origins except me. There are many people in this world who want to enter the fairyland and are obsessed with it!"

"From today on, you will temporarily practice in the Heavenly Palace! You will be considered a member of the Heavenly Palace, so you can understand this world! If possible, in five thousand years at most, or three thousand years at least, you will have the opportunity to return to the Immortal Realm!"

Yuan Li was disappointed that even such a powerful Supreme Being did not have the method to go to the Fairyland. However, the Supreme Being had already made arrangements and he did not dare to disobey. He could only take his leave first. He wanted to do as the Supreme Being said and first understand the specific situation of the universe before making plans for the future.

After Yuan Li left, Ye Xiu was naturally the only one left in the hall.

Although he had long planned to take Yuan Li as his disciple, Ye Xiu was not in a hurry at all. He wanted to let him walk around first and calm down before discussing other things.

Otherwise, if I talk about accepting you as my disciple when we first meet, not only will it seem like I have ulterior motives, but it will also be a bit of a loss of face. Only when Yuan Li understands his current situation, can he realize what a blessing it is to have me as his master, and he will be more willing to accept me sooner.

Of course, Yuan Li had no idea that Ye Xiu could think of so many twists and turns. He was much more mature and realistic than Ye Xiu imagined.

If Yuan Li knew that the Supreme was planning to take him in as a disciple, he would definitely not refuse. Going home is certainly important, but becoming a disciple does not interfere with it. Why bother with it and make trouble for yourself?

After all, the gap between the Fairyland and the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths is not big now. You know, there are no fairies in the Fairyland now either. The Supreme is the limit of cultivators between heaven and earth, and the absolute master of the Fairyland. To worship a Supreme as a teacher is the supreme honor and endless benefits.

It can only be said that although Ye Xiu took into account Yuan Li's discomfort after leaving his hometown, he ignored the actual situation in the fairyland and how huge the gap in their identities and status was in the real context.

As the future Immortal Emperor, Yuan Li's talent has been confirmed in the original time and space, so Ye Xiu naturally pays more attention to him. If it were someone else, Ye Xiu obviously would not think so. This can also be regarded as Yuan Li's own luck.

In this way, Yuan Li settled down in the Heavenly Palace, temporarily lived in the Qixiwu Palace to practice, and slowly became familiar with this world.

Ye Xiu sat upright in his own hall, paying attention to his designated disciple from time to time, and studying the mysteries of the Immortal Phoenix clan from a distance.
