Chapter 1024 [Fragrant Honey 18]
"Your Highness, you are finally back! The heaven is in chaos!" Siming came up to him anxiously, his tone revealing a bit of panic.
Runyu had just returned from a disaster, and his body and spirit had not yet fully recovered. Hearing Siming's words, he couldn't help but frown and asked in confusion: "What? What happened? Why are you so panicked?"
Siming calmed down and explained quickly: "It's like this, the Second Prince...he actually rebelled against the Heaven Realm! And now, he has become the Demon Lord of the Demon Realm!"
When Runyu heard this, his heart sank suddenly, and his face instantly became solemn. He could never have imagined that his brother would do such a thing.
"What is the Emperor's reaction to this?" Runyu was silent for a moment and then continued to ask.
Siming sighed and replied helplessly: "Your Highness, the Emperor of Heaven... He doesn't seem to care too much about this matter. On the contrary, he has recently married many new concubines and indulged in sensual pleasures all day long. It seems that the Emperor of Heaven seems to be planning to train a new trumpet to replace the Second Prince."
After hearing this, Runyu was extremely angry at the selfishness and indifference of the Emperor of Heaven. He cursed inwardly: "This old guy is still so selfish! The big one is useless, so he wants to make a small one. Humph, it's really ridiculous!"
After calming down a bit, Runyu thought of his master again and asked quickly, "By the way, how is the situation with Master?"
Siming shook his head and replied, "The Emperor has returned, but he is not in the heaven now. As for where he has gone, I really don't know. After all, the Emperor's whereabouts have always been erratic, who can know?"
Runyu was slightly disappointed, but he quickly made a decision. He stood up and said with a firm look in his eyes, "Forget it. If that's the case, I don't have to wait any longer. Siming, go gather my subordinates. I'm going to force the emperor to abdicate! We've given Taiwei, the tyrant, enough time. It's time for him to step down!"
"Yes, Your Highness." Siming replied.
So, when Youyou completed the task in the bird world and returned to the heaven happily, she was surprised to find that Runyu had ascended the throne of the emperor. This sudden change made Youyou very confused, and she couldn't help but wonder what happened during her absence.
It turns out that during Youyou's trip to the Bird Realm, Runyu, with his wisdom and courage, successfully overthrew the rule of the previous Heavenly Emperor and ascended to the supreme throne of Heavenly Emperor. And Youyou was totally unaware of all this.
After finishing his palace affairs, Runyu couldn't wait to find Youyou. The first thing he said when he saw Youyou was a passionate confession: "Master, I love you. You still have my position as the Queen of Heaven reserved for you. I wonder if you are willing to spend the rest of your life with me and watch the scenery of the six realms."
Faced with Runyu's straightforward confession, Youyou was somewhat at a loss. She stared at Runyu and said seriously, "Runyu, do you know that I am your master?"
However, Runyu was not shaken by Youyou's words. He answered firmly: "So what, Master? After three lifetimes in the mortal world, I don't believe that Master has never liked me. Master, what about a master-disciple relationship? I don't care. I really like you."
"Runyu, there are so many women in this world, like the stars, countless. Why do you have to stick to me, your teacher? Besides, you must not forget that I was born in chaos and I am much older than you." Youyou sighed lightly and said earnestly.
However, Runyu did not seem to have taken Youyou's words into his ears. His eyes were firm and persistent. He stared at Youyou tightly and said slowly, "I don't care, Master. There are many women in this world, but they are not you, Master. In my heart, you are the only one I really like. Master, you can think about it slowly. I am willing to wait. No matter how time passes, I will wait forever. Moreover, I can assure you that my position as the Queen of Heaven will always be reserved for you, Master. I will never marry any other Queen of Heaven."
As soon as he finished speaking, Runyu resolutely turned around and left, leaving Youyou alone staring at his receding back, with a complex emotion welling up in her heart.
Youyou murmured to himself, "Foolish child, how could your master not know everything you have done? You asked Siming to write down the tribulations of these three lives for you, just to use this long period of time to wait for your master to change his mind."
Ten days later, the sun was shining brightly, and Youyou came to the bank of the Wangchuan River alone. The river was turbulent and rough, as if it was a passage connecting the worlds of life and death.
Youyou stood by the river, gazing at the water, feeling a lot of emotions in her heart. She knew that the underworld of this world had never been opened, causing many creatures to be unable to rest and could only wander in the world.
Youyou took a deep breath and then chanted an ancient and mysterious spell. The spell echoed in the air, as if it had crossed the boundaries of time and space and connected with heaven and earth.
When the spell was finished, Youyou said slowly: "This emperor feels that the underworld has not returned to its place, so I offer my own merits as a sacrifice, and ask the heavens to allow me to open the underworld and send the living beings back to where they should go."
Her voice was clear and firm, echoing along the banks of the Lethe River, as if the whole world could hear her request.
At the moment when Youyou finished speaking, a huge eye suddenly appeared in the sky. This eye was as vast as the universe, exuding endless majesty and mystery.
It slowly opened its eyes, stared at Youyou, was silent for a moment, and then said slowly: "Yun."
This word, like thunder, shook the whole world. Youyou was delighted, knowing that the Heaven had agreed to her request.
As the heavens agreed, a faint light appeared on the Forgotten River. The light gradually gathered and formed a huge portal, and the entrance to the underworld was finally opened.
However, since the underworld had just been opened, there was no one to manage it yet. After thinking for a moment, Tiandao issued an order: "The Emperor of Zixiao Palace will open the underworld today. Before the Lord of the Underworld is born, you will temporarily take over the position of the Lord of the Underworld."
After receiving the order, Youyou accepted the task without hesitation. She knew the importance of the underworld and the heavy responsibility she shouldered.
At this time, Siming returned directly from the heaven to the underworld. He was originally an important figure in the underworld, and now he was appointed as the judge in charge of the Book of Life and Death, responsible for recording and managing the life and death cycle of all living beings.
The opening of the underworld marks the restoration of order in this world. Youyou and Siming will also embark on a new journey in the underworld to protect the balance between life and death.
After that, Youyou stayed in the underworld because the Yin and Yang worlds did not interact, and even gods could not go to the underworld. So Runyu and Youyou never met again since that conversation.
