Primordial Era: A man at the mouth of the Guanjiang River marries the Third Holy Mother.

But Master Taiyi dared not back down so easily. He hesitated for a long time, but finally gritted his teeth, steeled his heart, and told the whole story.

"But... Master, Chen Changsheng left a lightning shield in Yin Shiniang's womb at some point, and I... I was unable to break it. Now, although the Spirit Pearl has entered the womb, it has formed... formed a symbiotic relationship with that lightning power."

After saying that, he lowered his head even further, preparing to face his master's thunderous wrath.

However, the expected anger did not materialize.

A deathly silence fell over the Jade Void Palace.

After a long while, Yuanshi Tianzun spoke again, his voice revealing neither joy nor anger: "Symbiosis? Hmph, he's quite the schemer."

"Does Chen Changsheng harbor such wolfish ambitions that he intends to turn our Chan Sect's chosen one into a pawn of his Jie Sect?"

Taiyi Zhenren was so frightened that he didn't dare to breathe and could only kneel on the ground, remaining silent.

"Enough." The tone of the Primordial Celestial Venerable suddenly changed. "This matter is not your fault. Chen Changsheng's foundation is strange, and he also has the God-Slaying Spear in his hand. It is normal that you cannot do anything to him."

"Since he wants symbiosis, then so be it. I want to see whose command this pawn will ultimately obey."

"You may leave now. Take good care of your cave dwelling. In the future, that child will find you through his own destiny as a master and disciple."

"Disciple... obeys!"

Taiyi Zhenren felt as if he had been granted a pardon, and hurriedly kowtowed to express his gratitude before scrambling out of Yuxu Palace.

Only after flying out of the Kunlun Mountains did he finally breathe a long sigh of relief, feeling as if he had just escaped death.

"What kind of mess is this?!"

He wiped away a cold sweat, glanced back at the mist-shrouded Jade Void Palace, and felt a mix of emotions.

Does Master mean he tacitly approves of Chen Changsheng's interference?

This future disciple has already claimed two mountain factions before he was even born. When it comes to teaching him, should he listen to me or Chen Changsheng?

The more Taiyi Zhenren thought about it, the more his head ached, so he simply shook his head and decided to stop thinking about it.

Even if the sky falls, there are saints to hold it up. He should go back to his Golden Light Cave and think carefully about what kind of gift to prepare for his future disciple.

After all, the stronger one's foundation, the greater their ability to cause trouble.

……

On the other side, Chen Changsheng left Chentang Pass, feeling extremely relieved.

O Primordial Heavenly Venerable, the child destined for tribulation that you painstakingly sent has already been branded with the mark of my Jie Sect even before birth.

After he is born, he will find out that his two older brothers are my apprentices. Who do you think he will take as his master?

This move, this move is called "cutting off the fuel supply from under the pot"!

He was secretly pleased with himself, thinking that the next step was to prepare for his wedding with Chan'er.

Heavenly Court? Jin'ao Island?

The layout is small.

If we're going to do it, we should do it in a grand and spectacular way, so that the entire Three Realms will know.

He wanted to find a top-tier blessed land that no one could imagine or find, to serve as his and Chan'er's training ground.

Penglai Island, a place that only exists in legends, is undoubtedly the best choice.

With a single step, Chen Changsheng traversed countless miles of mountains and rivers, landing directly in Chaoge, the capital of the Yin Shang Dynasty.

As the Grand Preceptor of the Shang Dynasty, he was extremely familiar with this place.

The majestic city walls, bustling streets, and soaring human fortune converged into a visible black bird totem, circling majestically and sacredly above the city.

Without alerting anyone, Chen Changsheng simply scanned the city with his divine sense and locked onto two powerful yet restrained auras.

One of them was Kong Xuan.

The other path is that of the Human Emperor Xuanyuan.

He moved with lightning speed, and in the next moment, he appeared silently in the backyard of the Imperial Preceptor's residence.

Inside the courtyard, Kong Xuan and the Yellow Emperor sat facing each other, playing chess under an ancient pine tree.

Kong Xuan was dressed in magnificent clothes, with an arrogant expression, and his every move exuded an air of dominance over the world.

The Xuanyuan Emperor opposite him, though merely an avatar, wore a dragon robe and a flat-topped crown, exuding an imposing aura without anger, and was surrounded by a rich aura of human dragon.

"You two have quite the refined taste."

Chen Changsheng's voice, tinged with laughter, suddenly broke the silence of the courtyard.

Kong Xuan and Xuan Yuan looked up at the same time and saw that the person who came was Chen Changsheng. Both of them showed a little surprise.

Kong Xuan raised an eyebrow, put down the chess piece in his hand, and said with a hint of teasing, "Oh, isn't this our busy Law Enforcement Lord? What brings you to my humble abode?"

The Yellow Emperor stood up, nodded slightly to Chen Changsheng, and smiled gently.

"Chang Sheng, what has happened in the primordial world that has brought you here?"

Chen Changsheng looked at the two of them, then sat down on the stone bench with an air of nonchalance and poured himself a cup of tea.

He picked up his teacup, took a slow sip, and then said with a smile, "There's nothing going on in court. That kid Zishou is doing a good job. With Grand Tutor Wen and the two of you watching over things, I'm quite at ease."

Kong Xuan pursed his lips, clearly not interested in such mundane matters.

"Then what are you doing here? Don't tell me you're just here because you have nothing better to do than come and play chess and drink tea with us."

The Yellow Emperor also looked at Chen Changsheng, his gaze filled with inquiry.

He knew that Chen Changsheng never visited without a reason, so his sudden appearance in Chaoge must mean something important.

Chen Changsheng put down his teacup, a solemn expression on his face. Looking at the two of them, he said, word by word, "I've come here for two reasons: first, to meet you both, and second, to tell you something."

He paused, keeping everyone in suspense.

I'm getting married.

"What?!"

Upon hearing this, Kong Xuan abruptly stood up from the stone bench, his proud face displaying an expression of shock for the first time.

He stared wide-eyed, scrutinizing Chen Changsheng from head to toe, as if trying to see a flower bloom on his face.

"You? Married? To whom? Yang Chan?"

It's no wonder he lost his composure. In his eyes, Chen Changsheng, who was so focused on cultivation and causing trouble, didn't seem like the kind of person who would be troubled by personal feelings.

Moreover, with the great calamity of the Investiture of the Gods approaching, the Three Realms are in turmoil, and everyone is keeping a low profile, fearing that they will be caught up in it and turned to ashes.

This guy, on the other hand, actually has the mind to get married?

Although the Yellow Emperor did not lose his composure like Kong Xuan, he could not hide the surprise in his eyes.

However, he quickly realized what was happening, and his surprise quickly turned into genuine joy.

"Hahaha! Good! Great!"

The Yellow Emperor clapped his hands and laughed heartily, his voice booming with joy.

"Chang Sheng, you've finally come to your senses! Your marriage to the Third Holy Mother should have been arranged long ago!"

"This is a momentous occasion for our human race! It is also a symbol of a further step forward in the relationship between our human race and the Heavenly Court, and between our human race and the lineage of the Sage Nuwa! It must be celebrated grandly, so that the entire Three Realms know what a noble and esteemed fairy our human race's National Preceptor has married!"
