Covering the Sky: Fairy, I really need to control you properly.

The young man before me, who calls himself "the most handsome man in the Big Dipper" and has a bit of a roguish air, is he really the Great Emperor Wushi who will one day turn his back on all living beings, suppress an era, and make even the supreme beings of the forbidden zones wary?

Was this his style when he was young?

Looking at it, Xu Jinhuan couldn't help but think of the Black Emperor.

Black Emperor is known for being unreliable, greedy, lustful, and despicable, which gives a glimpse into the character of its master.

According to unofficial historical records, the Great Emperor Wushi once disguised himself as the Holy Maiden of Yaochi in his early years. However, his disguise as a woman was exposed, and he also raised a shameless pet named Black Emperor. Feeling ashamed to face the world, he turned his back on all living beings, leaving behind endless legends.

"You seem to be in trouble."

Xu Jinhuan: "It's hard to understand at a glance, and some misunderstandings have arisen."

The young man, Wu Shi, glanced past Xu Jinhuan and looked at the female cultivator who was chasing after them in the distance. He slowly sat up straight and said, "I understand. Do you want me to help you?"

"However, as payment, you have to tell me how you sneaked into Yaochi. Those old fogies are watching me every day, forbidding me from doing this or that. I'm about to suffocate."

Xu Jinhuan dared not bargain at this moment, as the pursuers behind him had already reached the courtyard gate.

The woman at the head of the group should be the current Holy Maiden of Yaochi, with unparalleled beauty, but at this moment her eyebrows were raised and she exuded murderous intent.

"make a deal!"

"Great!" Wu Shi grinned, revealing a set of white teeth.

He casually raised his hand and grabbed at Xu Jinhuan.

"Stay inside the tower and wait a moment."

As soon as Wu Shi finished transmitting his voice, Xu Jinhuan felt the space around him distort and the scenery before his eyes blurred.

The next moment, I found myself surrounded by a hazy, emerald-green light.

This is... the interior of the West Emperor Tower?

There was no solid ground beneath one's feet, only the omnipresent imperial might pervading the air; simply being in it made one feel as insignificant as dust.

He was actually sent into the Supreme Emperor Weapon.

Xu Jinhuan focused his mind on sensing the outside world. His vision was limited, but his divine sense penetrated through a thin barrier and saw the courtyard, ancient trees, and Wushi, who was being questioned by the Holy Maiden of Yaochi but remained calm.

What made him even more uneasy was that there were indeed wisps of profound Dao traces flowing within the space of the Imperial Weapon, which were very likely fragments of Daoist essence left behind by the Western Queen Mother in the past.

Without further hesitation, Xu Jinhuan immediately sat cross-legged, gathered all his thoughts, and extended his Dao senses to try to touch and capture the traces of the Emperor Realm.

Such a stroke of luck should not be missed.

In the courtyard, the Holy Maiden of Yaochi had already arrived with her entourage. Seven or eight female disciples surrounded her in the middle, each holding a magical artifact and with a frosty expression.

Their divine senses swept across every corner of the courtyard, but were quietly dissipated the moment they touched Wushi's side.

"Greetings, Holy Son."

Although the disciples were still angry, they did not lose their manners and bowed to Wushi in unison, but their eyes still looked around suspiciously.

The Holy Maiden of Yaochi, however, was not so polite.

She was dressed in a light green dress, her wet black hair still dripping water, clearly she had only had time to put on an outer garment in her haste.

The Holy Maiden of Yaochi stared at Wushi with murderous intent in her phoenix eyes, her tone clearly questioning: "Junior Brother Wushi, did you see a strange man fleeing here just now?"

Wu Shi spread her hands innocently: "Men? Besides me, are there any other men in Yaochi? Senior Sister, are you perhaps hallucinating from over-cultivation?"

He blinked, then put on that nonchalant smile again. "Or perhaps, you ladies actually missed me and are just looking for an excuse to visit?"

"Without beginning!"

The Holy Maiden of Yaochi blushed slightly, whether from anger or embarrassment, it was hard to tell. "Just now, that lecherous thief's aura clearly vanished here. Besides you, who else nearby could conceal this secret?"

"Senior Sister, those words are hurtful." Wu Shi clutched his heart, feigning pain. "How could I, the Holy Son of Yaochi, a future Heavenly Emperor destined to suppress the Big Dipper, possibly harbor someone who sneaked in... uh, a stranger?"

He almost let slip the secret, then quickly corrected himself, "Besides, where could I hide someone if I wanted to? This courtyard stretches as far as the eye can see; I can't just cram them into the West Emperor's Tower, can I? That's an imperial weapon; I don't have the ability to use it so casually."

He spoke with such conviction, as if he had truly suffered a great injustice.

Xu Jinhuan, inside the West Emperor Tower, listened with a twitching mouth.

This emperor's acting skills and mental fortitude were absolutely top-notch when he was young.

Moreover, it's rather unconventional.

The Holy Maiden of Yaochi was skeptical, so she carefully examined the area several times with her divine sense, and even secretly activated some kind of secret technique. Her eyes shone with a clear light as she scanned the void.

However, the status of the Western Emperor Tower is too high, and even if it is just spontaneous protection, it is far beyond her current understanding.

In the end, she could only snort coldly before leading her disciples away dejectedly, clearly intending to expand the search area further.

"That would be best. If I find out that you are involved, I will certainly report it to the Holy Lord."

Once everyone had completely disappeared, Wu Shi put away his playful expression and snapped his fingers lightly.

Xu Jinhuan felt the space around him fluctuate, and in a flash, he found himself standing again beside the bluestone in the courtyard.

"Alright, we're safe now." Wu Shi clapped his hands, looking Xu Jinhuan up and down with great interest.

"Tell me, how did you get in? The Jade Pool Grand Formation is so tight that even a male mosquito can't fly in, yet you managed to reach the edge of the Jade Pool Immortal Bath. Teach me that skill!"

Xu Jinhuan was thinking about many things at that moment.

He recalled his experience in the Azure Emperor's Dao Fruit World, where he couldn't control how long he stayed.

But this time, something seems different?

After entering this world, his consciousness became exceptionally clear, and his connection with the Tree of Heaven seemed to be even stronger.

A bold idea suddenly popped into my head: since these worlds are all fragments that actually happened in ancient history, could I, as a variable who broke in, bring some variables back with me?

Returning to the timeline you belong to?

He looked at the young emperor before him, who would one day be invincible, yet still retained a touch of naivety and impetuosity, and suddenly grinned.

"Wu Shi... Fellow Daoist?" Xu Jinhuan tried to get closer to him. "You might not believe it, but I didn't sneak in."

"Oh?" Wu Shi raised an eyebrow.

"I fell in."

Xu Jinhuan stretched out his hand, palm facing up, and with a slight thought, communicated with the swaying Tree of All Heavens in the Sea of ​​Bitterness.

A faint, indescribable Daoist aura emanated from his body.

Wu Shi's eyes changed instantly.

"Interesting, what kind of Taoist practice is this?"

"It's too complicated to explain, so why don't you go and see for yourself, fellow Daoist?"

Before he finished speaking, he suddenly took a step forward and grabbed Wushi's wrist.

"What are you doing? Men shouldn't touch each other..."

Caught off guard, Wu Shi was about to use his internal energy to break free when he felt an irresistible pulling force coming from Xu Jinhuan's body.

That power was neither divine power nor law; it was more like some kind of guidance.

Then, he saw a sight he would never forget.

In the depths of Xu Jinhuan's sea of ​​suffering, an ineffable and indescribable Dao tree manifested.

Its form is neither real nor illusory; its roots seem to be rooted in endless cycles of reincarnation, and its branches and leaves seem to stretch out the warp and weft of the heavens. It possesses a natural Taoist charm and is radiant with light.

Above the towering tree canopy, the Yin and Yang energies circulated, and two Dao fruits floated uncertainly.

All around, the courtyard, ancient trees, the Jade Pool, and even the entire ancient Big Dipper were rapidly fading and receding. Countless bizarre and fantastical images swirled around, stars were born and died, seas turned into fields, emperors waged war, and all living beings prayed...
