Changfei’s concern for his father had, in the Rabbit Queen’s mind, already transformed into admiration. Changfei no longer intended to explain anything.
He simply sighed softly, “Big sister…”
The crack of a whip sounded nearby.
Changfei pressed his lips together and said, “Sister, you must be someone with A-type blood, right? Stubborn, unwilling to listen to advice, and fond of sinking into your own sorrow. You do things your own way and couldn’t care less about what others think, isn’t that so?”
He had gone all in.
He had decided to take the lofty path of a god.
What he faced now was just a woman who seemed to have a bit of an S… alright, a sadistic streak.
Backing down wasn’t in Changfei’s character.
He had to play the expert.
Even if he wasn’t truly a master yet, he was still a god.
He had to show her what a god was capable of!
Otherwise, this human would never know how many genders their Yuelao had!
“Congratulations to the New God Yuelao on unlocking the [Zhuangbi Awareness] achievement. Xianfa unlocked, you may now learn [Tai Shang Wangqing]. Mastery will make you appear heartless; the more indifferent you seem, the stronger your attacks become.”
“[Tai Shang Wangqing] learned. Would you like to upgrade it using Xianyuan?”
“Upgrade completed. Use now?”
Several “friendly reminders” from the Yuelao’s little manual bombarded Changfei’s mind until he was dizzy.
What just happened?
What was that?
Had the Yuelao manual taken the liberty to make a decision again?
Changfei wanted to question it, but the great enemy before him already grabbed him, a twisted grin spreading across her face.
Even with mental preparation, Changfei felt his heart tremble.
“You brat… who did you say was the one doing whatever they want without caring what others think?”
The Rabbit Queen hissed, each word sharp as a blade, clearly repeating his previous insult.
Changfei pressed his lips, “You.”
“If I didn’t care, I wouldn’t have chosen to leave! Haven’t you seen how I’ve been supporting those two all along?!” The Rabbit Queen threw Changfei out.
But Changfei wasn’t actually thrown out.
To the Rabbit Queen, the small figure who should have been mortally wounded by her strike suddenly stopped mid-air.
A faint red glow shimmered over him as he raised slender, jade-like fingers toward the sky.
His voice was calm: “You say you care, but Heaven does not think the same. I am the embodiment of the Heavenly Dao, here to punish a foolish woman like you. You dared to replace the Yuan Lao in deciding others’ fates, assigning matches without permission — a blatant defiance of Heaven. You even created [Shadow Bonds], bringing great calamity to the world. You should be condemned to lifelong solitude. Yet, since this is your first offense and you have a sincere heart for good, I shall overlook your failings. Break the [Shadow Bonds] swiftly and restore peace to the Heavenly Dao’s realm.”
The Rabbit Queen was a little frightened by Changfei’s appearance.
His eyes were unfocused, his expression blank. Clad in red mist and jade pendants, wrapped in countless red threads, he looked almost otherworldly, like he didn’t belong to the mortal realm.
She was momentarily silenced.
But inside, Changfei’s heart raced wildly.
Will this work?
Is there a mirror?
At least let me see if I really look like a god.
Wait, I’m in a female body now, right?
When did the Yuelao outfit change again?
This looks like a standing collar, and it feels cold across my chest.
Is this really okay?
Why do I feel like I’m being seen through?
Fortunately, he caught the Rabbit Queen’s expression.
At least that proved he had probably scared her.
Seeing her silence stretch on, Changfei almost couldn’t hold back and was about to provoke her further when the Rabbit Queen snapped angrily, “I don’t know what you’re talking about! Who exactly are you? What right do you have to spout such nonsense? State your name immediately!”
“Name? I have no name, but I have a title familiar to all of you…” Changfei smiled faintly, “I am—”
Just as he was about to reveal his identity as Yuelao, the warning from the little Yuelao manual echoed in his mind:
“Attention, you have been officially recognized as a Yuelao God. You have mastered Xianfa. Those favored by the Heavenly Dao must not reveal divine secrets or expose the Yuelao identity. Violations will result in Meteorite punishment. Meteorite prepared. Fate is ready.”
‘What the hell? I have this grand title and now I can’t even say it? Yuelao manual, are you messing with me? Why do you always have to butt in whenever I try to do something good? Are you joking?’
Changfei cursed in his heart, but in reality, he didn’t dare risk revealing his secret.
Especially since he had already been hit by a Meteorite once.
They say once a Meteorite strikes you, you’ll fear even the smallest falling stone from Heaven for ten years.
Swallowing nervously, the words stuck in his throat before changing to: “…the name doesn’t matter. Just know that I am aware of all the world’s fates, and all fates are decided by me.”
After speaking, Changfei glanced instinctively at the sky.
Would this sneaky trick bring down another Meteorite?
He soon noticed a flash of light in the distance.
His heart skipped a beat.
The impulse to turn and flee rose, but then a sharp pain hit his forehead, blood trickling down.
A faint clink sounded as something small fell to the ground, drawing his gaze downward.
It was… a greenish stone, somewhat translucent. It looked like the Chinese character for ‘three’ — a big, bold 叁. Jade, wasn’t it?
Jade was a type of stone, after all.
Why was this stone here?
There was blood on it, right? Could it be…
‘Meteorite?’ Changfei questioned the jade-like stone in his mind.
The Rabbit Queen was already shocked.
The moment Changfei vaguely hinted at his identity, a piece of jade flew from the sky!
If she wasn’t mistaken, that was the Sansheng Stone!
The legendary stone said to seal three lives and three worlds’ destined marriage! Could it be…
“You are Yuelao…!” the Rabbit Queen exclaimed in astonishment.
Changfei instinctively grabbed his head.
A moment passed without another stone hitting him.
Could it be… I can’t reveal myself, but others guessing it is fine?
Changfei guessed to himself as the Rabbit Queen’s voice returned, filled with a mix of confusion and reverence, “Yue… Lao Immortal? What… are you doing?”
“Ahem… I am praying to Heaven, raising my hands to thank the heavens. Marriage is predestined by fate. All I do is follow the Heavenly Dao. So whenever I decide someone’s fate, I give thanks to Heaven for granting this destined union.”
Changfei said seriously, then looked at the Rabbit Queen.
“I once prayed to Heaven for seven days and nights for your match, wishing only for a good fate for you. But you have not cherished it. You refuse to listen to explanation or advice, and have misjudged your husband, wrongfully condemning him to suffer the stigma of Homosexual Love. You even created [Shadow Bonds], causing so many ordinary families to fall apart…! I came today only to urge you toward kindness, yet you attacked me violently, wasting the good fortune I bestowed upon you!”
By the end, Changfei felt more and more that everything he said was true.
With a sweep of his sleeve, he truly seemed angry.
