Stealing the Pen: Kirin's Primordial Lotus

"Don't you want to ask me why I keep you with me?"

"When immortals do things, they have their own reasons."

"I don't trust those people halfway up the mountain. After all, once people live long enough, all kinds of evil spirits will emerge."

"But you are different. Everything you did when you were in power was for the poor people under you. So I approve of your heart, but I don't approve of theirs."

"why?"

"Your Highness doesn't like them, but they have inherited the bloodline of Young Chief Qilin, so there is nothing we can do. We can only hold our noses and let them do things. Otherwise, when Young Chief Qilin comes here in the future, he will have no place to show off his abilities and bloodline openly."

The Zhang family halfway up the mountain seemed to be just a tool, there only to welcome the upcoming young patriarch of Qilin.

"Brother Qilin, when will you come over? I'm so bored here. Uncle Yang said it's too dangerous outside and I can't go out yet." In the jade bead space, Xiao Lianhua was talking to Qilin, who was waiting for the arrival of the thunder, on the prehistoric continent through the magic weapon given to him by his father.

"It's almost time. The thunder is coming soon. Be obedient. There are a lot of bad guys outside."

"Okay, then can I talk to Brother Qilin more often? There's no one here to chat with me." Little Lotus stayed alone in the space, with no playmates, only small animals that couldn't talk, and the company of Uncle Yang and Emperor Xin outside.

"You can use the water mirror. Once a war breaks out outside, you can go out to pick up people and accumulate capital for the future." Uncle Yang pointed at the water mirror and let Emperor Xin use it at will.

"Thank you, Immortal."

Behind the bronze door, Emperor Xin not only practiced but also observed the outside world through the water mirror. He also visited the ministers in his mausoleum and shared his life with them.

Emperor Xin discovered that the fifth king of the Western Zhou Dynasty had actually discovered the so-called Kingdom of the Queen Mother of the West, and was defeated by a group of women. The monarch of the Western Zhou Dynasty was even captured.

Emperor Xin was so happy that he laughed heartily, but he also discovered that the country of Queen Mother of the West actually had the legendary elixir of life, and it seemed that Queen Mother of the West had already studied or achieved immortality with this elixir of life.

"Uncle Yang, is the ruler of the Kingdom of Queen Mother of the West really immortal?" Emperor Xin asked Uncle Yang with doubt.

"I haven't met them, so I'm not sure. But there are indeed a small number of people in this world who have achieved so-called immortality. However, the side effects are too great, and they should have become half-human, half-ghost beings."

"Then have I also achieved the so-called immortality?"

"What are you thinking about? There is a big difference between your immortality and theirs. Your immortality is obtained by cultivating the spiritual energy here, while theirs is obtained through the so-called elixir of life. How can they be the same?"

"I see. Then I can enter and exit the cave freely from now on without turning into a half-human, half-ghost monster."

"Of course. Have you ever seen a cultivator turn into a being that is neither human nor ghost?" Uncle Yang looked at the silly Emperor Xin with disappointment.

"These people will eventually suffer the consequences of their own actions. You don't need to pay too much attention to them." Having said that, Uncle Yang no longer paid attention to those so-called immortals.

Emperor Xin just watched it for fun and didn't really take it to heart.

Emperor Xin just sat in the cave and watched the water mirror show him the outside world, from the division of the Western Zhou Dynasty, to the war among the seven kingdoms, to the Qin Kingdom led by the descendants of his former subordinates sweeping across the world and unifying the world.

Emperor Xin looked at the destroyed Western Zhou Dynasty and could only sigh that the so-called country favored by Nuwa was just like this and would eventually be killed by the descendants of the Great Shang.

Although he lamented the disputes in the world, he still felt a little refreshed in his heart. When he told Wen Taishi and others in the mausoleum about the destruction of the Western Zhou Dynasty by the descendants of E Lai, Wen Taishi and others jumped three feet high, and all the snakes, insects, rats and ants in the mausoleum ran away.

Unfortunately, the descendants of E Lai were unlucky. After unifying the world, they could not understand the languages ​​of various countries, and their domestic laws were different from those of other countries, which led to frequent uprisings in various places. He also had too many unfulfilled wishes, so he wanted to obtain immortality but was repeatedly deceived, which led to word of mouth among the people at the bottom that King Zheng of Qin was a tyrant.

Emperor Xin couldn't bear to see such a talented person being misunderstood, but he couldn't change history, so he could only ask Uncle Yang for help to fake the death of this outstanding descendant of the Shang Dynasty and get out of this situation.

Qin Wang Zheng died when he was on an eastern tour. He was unwilling to accept that he had so many unfinished things. When he opened his eyes again, he saw that everything around him was pitch black, and he had also entered the underworld.

"Hey, kid, now that you're awake, come here." A voice suddenly came from the dark space.

"Who are you? Where is this? Why am I here?" King Zheng of Qin looked around but did not see any object.

At this time, stars lit up all around and gathered into a road. King Zheng of Qin followed the stars and moved forward.

King Zheng of Qin saw a servant wearing clothes different from those of Qin at the end of the road, and he waited there quietly.

"You have done a good job, kid. You have unified the world and destroyed those hypocrites of the Western Zhou Dynasty." Emperor Xin smiled and praised King Zheng of Qin who was standing there.

"Who are you? How do you know that I have unified the world? And what deep hatred do you have with the Western Zhou Dynasty?"

"Perhaps you have heard of my name or the bad posthumous title given to me by those hypocrites in the Western Zhou Dynasty." Emperor Xin was wary of his King Zheng of Qin.

"Remember, kid, my name is Emperor Xin. Don't call me King Zhou, or I will beat you so hard that even your ancestors won't recognize you."

"Are you Emperor Xin? But didn't Emperor Xin die a long time ago? How come you are still alive? Did you get the elixir of immortality?" King Zheng of Qin looked at the young man in front of him and was shocked that Emperor Xin was still alive. A person who had been dead for thousands of years was still alive.

"Not only am I alive, but you are too."

As Emperor Xin said this, he walked over, grabbed King Zheng of Qin's sleeve, and took him into Uncle Yang's mansion.

"I'm still alive? Am I not already dead? Is everything Xu Fu said true?"

"You are just too obsessed with the elixir of life. When I take you to see a real immortal later, you will find that the ones you have seen before are all half-baked practitioners."

In Uncle Yang's mansion, Xiao Lianhua and Uncle Yang were having a quarrel.

Before the jade bead could emit pieces of gold, silver and jewels, as soon as Emperor Xin and Zheng Gang stepped into the mansion, Emperor Xin was hit on the head by a piece of jade out of nowhere.

"Your Highness, there is a war going on outside right now. There are so many people secretly looking for the immortals. Let's not join in the fun. When the war stops, there won't be so many people looking for the immortals. I'm afraid that Emperor Xin will take you out to play, okay?"

Little Lotus heard Yang Shusong say in the jade bead that when the chaos outside was not so serious, he would let Emperor Xin take him out for a walk.

"Really? Uncle Yang, you can't go back on your word anymore, or I'll punish you by turning you into a bear."

"Okay, whatever the little prince says is what it is. Uncle Yang will definitely let Di Xin take you out this time."

Uncle Yang finally coaxed little Lianhua into submission, and she then controlled the jade bead to return to the hot spring pool and continue floating up and down.

"Are you coming?" Uncle Yang tidied up his clothes and hair which were messed up when he was dodging the jewelry and jade thrown by Xiao Lianhua.

"Immortal, we are here."

Qin Wangzheng was shocked that the immortal looked like this in private. He always thought that immortals should have white hair and youthful appearance, and be ethereal. But he saw a young man with messy clothes and messy hair.

"Now that he's here, take him with you to work." Uncle Yang looked King Zheng of Qin up and down, and without saying much, he just asked Emperor Xin to take him out to work together.

"Brother Qilin, why haven't you survived the thunder yet? How long will it take?"

"It will be soon." Qilin naturally knew why his tribulation thunder had not come yet. Xiao Lianhua's father did not want him to go too early, so he had been suppressing his tribulation thunder and preventing him from going through the tribulation.

"Then I'll go ask Daddy, and let him talk to my father." Little Lotus suddenly thought of something and hung up the call with Qilin.

Qilin looked at the water mirror that suddenly turned black and remained silent.

The old father standing by was helpless and could only pat his son on the shoulder.

"Can you understand the love an old father has for his son? How would you feel if someone suddenly plucked the lotus flower that he had cultivated for thousands of years? So it's good enough that Daozu just suppressed your thunder and didn't kill you right away."

"I understand. So father, my brother is about to break out of his shell, aren't you going to watch him?"

Qi Zu was choked by his son and was speechless.

Qi Zu said that he didn't want to persuade his son who didn't understand romance anymore. He had to go see his precious little son. When his little son was born, he had to teach him well and he couldn't be like his brother.

Qilin stroked the small lotus jade pendant in his hand. The lotus petals were rubbed to a shiny gloss without hurting his fingers.

Hold it tightly in your hand and wear it on your heart.

After Emperor Xin and Ying Zheng walked out, they came to the place where Emperor Xin usually worked.

"Ying Zheng is dead. Now that you have been reborn, you can no longer be called Ying Zheng. You must cut off ties with the past and start your life anew. You are a Qin person, so you should take Qin as your surname and Fuguang, which means the sun."

"Will I ever be able to see Fusu again in the future? That child..." Ying Zheng is now called Qin Fuguang. The person Fuguang is most worried about is Fusu, his eldest son, the eldest son for whom he has given everything.

"Maybe I'll see you again, or maybe I won't."

"Flowers have a day to bloom again, so why can't people have a day to bloom again?"

Emperor Xin patted Fu Guang on the shoulder.
