The master comes down the mountain: I don’t want to be a son-in-law

“Medicine Princess…” The woman’s eyes seemed to pierce through the void, looking into the distance, “It’s been so long, I almost forgot that I had such a name.”

"Are you really Yao Ji?" Li Muchen was a little excited.

Yao Ji smiled gently, and that smile seemed to carry the accumulation of years and a mysterious charm, which made her look particularly moving in this palace emitting a strange red light.

"Have you been to Medicine Fairy Valley?" Her voice was as clear as a mountain spring, crisp and ethereal. "What is it like there now?"

"I burned it." said Li Muchen.

“Hmm?” Yao Ji was stunned for a moment, but there was no anger on her face. She just sighed with some regret, “Well, it’s better to burn it. Anyway, all living beings are suffering and there is no way to save them. It’s better not to save them.”

Li Muchen said: "Senior, there is no need to feel sorry. Medicine Immortal Valley has long since become Five Poison Valley. Someone is using your name to raise poisonous insects to harm others. That is why I burned it down."

Yao Ji nodded slightly, and looked at him in surprise: "Did you call me senior just now?"

"What, is there a problem?"

“Hehehe…” Yao Ji laughed, as beautiful as a spring flower.

"What are you laughing at?" Li Muchen asked.

"Nothing, I just thought it was funny." Yao Ji said, "You don't have to call me senior. My name is Gong Yuerong. What's your name?"

"Gong Yuerong..." Li Muchen silently read the name, and confirmed that the other party was from the Gong family. He felt a little excited, and then replied, "My name is Li Muchen."

"Are you from the Li family?!" Gong Yuerong's expression suddenly changed, and the look that had been so gentle just now suddenly turned cold.

"What happened to the Li family?" Li Muchen asked.

"It's nothing. People from the Li family shouldn't have come here. If it weren't for you, he wouldn't have died." Gong Yuerong's voice was a little more desolate. "I know the Li family has been looking for this place, and you finally found it."

"Who are you talking about?"

"You don't know?" Gong Yuerong looked at Li Muchen with some disbelief.

"I don't know." Li Muchen said.

"Then why did you come here? And how did you get in?" Gong Yuerong asked.

Li Muchen didn't know how to explain, so he could only say, "My mother's surname is also Gong, her name is Gong Lingyan."

Gong Yuerong was stunned.

“Gong Lingyan…” Gong Yuerong murmured, “Who knew that the guest sleeping in the Jiangting Pavilion was the one on the Lingyan Pavilion… I didn’t expect that Li Chungang would have figured it out. The Gong family and the Li family actually got married, hahahaha…”

After laughing, he looked at Li Muchen curiously, "I really want to know what kind of person your father is. How could he have accomplished what King Tang failed to do?"

Now it was Li Muchen's turn to be stunned.

In fact, he had guessed a lot of things, but the information revealed in Gong Yuerong's words exceeded his imagination.

"I...have never seen my father." Li Muchen said.

Gong Yuerong was surprised: "Is that so? Then you grew up in the Gong family?"

"No, I haven't seen my mother either." Li Muchen looked at her, "I heard that my mother looks almost the same as the person in the portrait in Yaoxian Valley."

Of course, he was talking about the medicine girl Gong Yuerong in front of him.

Gong Yuerong was stunned for a moment, then she started laughing, with more kindness and tenderness in her eyes.

"Do you know how the Gong family came about?"

"I was in Tiandu and heard from Gong Bo that the Gong family came from the palace, and the Gong family's mission is to protect this divine palace."

Gong Yuerong did not ask Li Muchen why he was in Tiandu, nor did she ask who Gong Bo was.

A complicated look flashed in her eyes, and she looked at Li Muchen and said, "You are the bloodline of the combination of the Li family and the Gong family. This should not have happened, or rather, you are a mistake."

"Error?" Li Muchen frowned.

"The heavens shouldn't have allowed you to appear. But the problem is, you appeared. So something must have gone wrong. But it doesn't matter..."

Gong Yuerong smiled slightly, "This world is wrong. Ever since the fall of the saint and the collapse of heaven and earth, everything has been wrong. In a wrong world, an absolute mistake may not be a wrong thing!"

Li Muchen was confused: "What do you mean, senior?"

"I told you, you don't have to call me senior." Gong Yuerong seemed to be disgusted by this word. "Do you know why I am here?"

Li Muchen thought for a moment and said, "I only know that in addition to inheriting the Saint Girl and continuing the bloodline of the Heavenly Demon, the Gong family is also one of the Five Elements Halls of the Demon Cult. That yellow Five Elements Flag should be in your hands."

"The yellow five-element flag..." Gong Yuerong smiled and shook her head, "You seem to know everything, but you also seem to know very little. It's really strange. That flag is called the Xuanhuang Wuji Flag. If it can be combined with the other western flag, it will be the Xuantian Command, which can lead to the Western Desolate Territory and open the Five-Colored Gate... Oh, forget it, it's useless to say these things. The other Xitang has already betrayed the Holy Lord..."

"The western flag is in my hand." Li Muchen said.

"What?" Gong Yuerong was shocked. "Are you telling the truth?"

"Yes, I gave them to my little apprentice."

"Ah? You really are..." Gong Yuerong wanted to say that he was squandering the holy objects by giving them away to his disciples, but suddenly she laughed, "Forget it, you made a mistake that was overlooked by the way of heaven. Who knows whether what you did was right or wrong?"

"I'm afraid that Heaven has not left me out." Li Muchen said.

Gong Yuerong looked at him and nodded: "No matter what, you have come to the Divine Palace. As long as you can get out of here, you can take away the Xuanhuang Wuji Flag in my hand and build the Xuantian Dutong formation. The problem is that this place is difficult to get in, and it is even more difficult to get out."

"why?"

"Do you know what the Shrine is?"

Li Muchen thought for a moment and said, "I once heard Gong Bo say that Gong means womb, which is the origin of life. What I saw and felt along the way here today is consistent with this."

Gong Yuerong nodded approvingly: "It is indeed not easy for you to understand these. You are right, this place contains the fountain of life and is the mother of all things. The reason why all things have spirits is that there are gods. And the place where gods are born is the palace of the gods."

"So all cultivators must open a divine palace, and use the energy of the divine palace to measure their cultivation level." Li Muchen said, "But I still don't understand where the divine palace came from? Since all things have spirits, why do only humans have divine palaces, and not everyone can open a divine palace. And demons and the like don't have divine palaces on their bodies?"

Gong Yuerong smiled and said, "Have you heard of the Book of Conferred Gods?"

Li Muchen shook his head.

"The so-called Conferred Gods means sealing the Divine Palace. The Book of Conferred Gods is the rules for sealing and opening the Divine Palace. The Heavenly Dao uses this to establish the rules of the world."

"I understand. This is the foundation of the Heavenly Dao's power to control the world from the virtual to the real."

"If you master the Book of Conferred Gods, you will be the spokesperson of Heaven in the world. Do you want it?" Gong Yuerong looked at him with a smile on her face, as if she was looking forward to his answer.

"No, I don't want it. I think it might be better to tear it up." Li Muchen said.
