I Possess a Scroll of Demon-Subduing Records

It is likely that Bixia's cultivation will advance further after this ordeal.

Bixia felt a tremor in her heart, knowing that she had to make a choice.

But when she looked at Lin Yi, who was waiting for her, she just couldn't make that decision.

Why must earthly emperors be taboo?

Why must there be an insurmountable chasm between immortals and mortals?

"Why is it that simply falling in love with one person has brought about the death of my entire family?"

Bixia couldn't help but wonder, what did she do wrong, or what did Lin Yi do wrong?

If it wasn't their fault, then where exactly did they go wrong?

The Heavenly Emperor of the East truly understood his daughter.

He knew that Bixia was always sensible and knew how to consider the bigger picture.

Little did they know that Bixia was a stubborn person at heart.

There are some questions she doesn't want to understand anymore; she can't get over them.

But some problems are more terrifying to understand than to not understand.

"Father, may I give up being an immortal?"

Bixia said something that shocked the Eastern Heavenly Emperor.

"Are you crazy!?"

Bixia was very calm; one could even say she was very clear-headed.

She wasn't crazy; she was simply considering the feasibility of the idea.

Clearly, according to the Heavenly Laws, her idea was correct.

Gods and humans cannot marry, but the relationships between humans are beyond the jurisdiction of heavenly laws.

However, many things are not as she wishes.

Her father would not agree to his daughter giving up being a goddess just to marry a mortal.

He wouldn't allow himself to lose face like that.

Even if he agrees, the Heavenly Court probably won't.

Ultimately, she was just a rich young lady with no power or influence.

Despite her seemingly noble status, she actually lacked the ability to decide her own destiny.

Only when she has real power can she make her own decisions.

Otherwise, she wouldn't have the right to freely love someone.

Moreover, when she said she didn't want to be an immortal, her father's eyes flashed with murderous intent after the initial shock.

Without a doubt, this killing intent couldn't have been directed at her; it could only have been aimed at Lin Yi.

If she continues to be oblivious to her own limitations, her affections will only bring trouble to others.

At this moment, Bixia's thoughts were clear.

She didn't throw a tantrum or become depressed because of it.

On the contrary, her fighting spirit was extremely high at this moment!

She will climb to the top step by step and take control of her own and her lover's destiny!

Just as the Eastern Heavenly Emperor was brewing his murderous intent, she suddenly smiled and said, "Father, don't be afraid, I was just joking."

I do have a great deal of admiration for Lin Yi. I thought he was a Daoist cultivator, and if he could become an immortal, it would be nice to become his Daoist partner.

Since he is an emperor, he cannot become an immortal; for me, we are merely people on different paths.

Eastern Heavenly Emperor: "..."

You can't joke like that!

In just a short while, the Eastern Heavenly Emperor had already devised ten ways to kill Lin Yi.

Hearing that Bixia was joking, he breathed a sigh of relief.

Lin Yi was, after all, an emperor of the mortal realm, and his fortune was so strong.

If we kill him without first ruining his luck, even if he is a celestial emperor, he will have a hard time bearing such a huge karmic burden.

Fortunately, Lin Yi's life can be spared now.

Seeing that Bixia's expression did not seem to be feigned, the Eastern Heavenly Emperor no longer suspected her.

Little did he know that his daughter had suddenly grown up.

After explaining to the Eastern Heavenly Emperor, Bixia calmly walked towards Lin Yi.

The Eastern Heavenly Emperor was still somewhat uneasy, so he began to observe secretly.

At this moment, Bixia had composed herself. She lifted her veil to cover her face and slowly walked behind Lin Yi.

Hearing footsteps, Lin Yi turned around and saw the Goddess of Mount Tai, whom he had been longing for day and night.

She still has the same big, captivating eyes as before.

Moreover, compared to before, her eyes are now more bright and determined, and she seems to have matured a lot.

"Long time no see. A friend told me there was a fireworks messenger down the mountain, and I guessed it was you."

Bixia said with a smile, her calm reaction truly like that of an old friend reuniting.

but……

It wasn't what Lin Yi had imagined.

He thought Bixia would excitedly run over, and then the two would passionately embrace...

The melodramatic romance drama in Lin Yi's mind never came to fruition.

On the contrary, he sensed a distance and estrangement between the two of them.

"haven't seen you for a long time."

This development was beyond Lin Yi's expectations, leaving him momentarily at a loss for what to do. All he could do was awkwardly ask, "How have you been all these years?"

"It's great. I've made some new friends since you left. What about you?"

"Uh... I don't have many friends."

Lin Yi, as the king, had many vassals but few friends.

"Hey, am I your only friend?"

Bixia's playful little face seems to have returned to her former self.

What if I said yes?

Although Lin Yi felt that Bixia's reaction was a bit off and did not develop as he expected, he still launched his offensive.

Now that we've come this far, how can we flee without a fight?

Upon hearing this, Bixia felt a surge of sorrow in her heart.

Lin Yi's happiness upon seeing her was undeniable.

That's why she was even more heartbroken.

However, she controlled her emotions very well.

Feeling she was losing control, she looked up at the sky.

"I'm really sorry... I'm afraid we can no longer be friends."

"why?"

"You should have guessed by now that I am the God of Mount Tai. The difference between humans and gods is like an insurmountable chasm."

"If you were just an ordinary cultivator, that would be fine, but my father said you're a mortal emperor. Befriending you would bring us both a lot of trouble."

Lin Yi: "..."

So that's the reason?

Bixia said regretfully, "You are really a very interesting person, but unfortunately, we are of different statuses."

But don't be sad, I'll always consider you my best friend!

Lin Yi: "..."

If Bixia acted distant towards him, he might have guessed that she had encountered some insurmountable trouble.

But when Bixia expressed her regret and said that she had always considered him a friend, Lin Yi realized that perhaps he had made a mistake.

Perhaps the goddess was just rather naive. Even though they enjoyed flowers, the moon, and the sunrise together, and corresponded frequently, she only considered him a friend.

So when her father discovered her true identity and forbade the two of them from seeing each other, she obediently stopped seeing them.

I considered him a friend, but that was all...

So he imagined all of this!

I remembered that Lingyi had said that Bixia had already read the story he wrote.

That's it, she should have understood by now, right?

At that moment, Lin Yi's sense of shame exploded.

The most awkward thing is when you put on a big show without caring about anyone else, when in fact the other person didn't mean it at all.

He could only manage a stiff smile and say, "So that's how it is. You could have explained it clearly in your letter. I couldn't help but keep thinking about it until I understood the reason."

"I'm sorry, my dad told me not to say too much back then."

When Bixia began to apologize, all the conflicts seemed to be resolved.

They were just ordinary good friends, but they became strangers because one of their parents didn't allow them to play together.

It's reasonable and there's nothing wrong with it.

He was just too immersed in the role.
