..."Stop, stop, stop!"
Xuan Ming pressed his hands against Qian Renxue's fragrant shoulders, which were already leaning in. He circulated his divine force and forcibly pushed this Angel God King, whose emotions were on the verge of spiraling out of control, back to her original spot.
"Xue'er, can we please stop for a moment?"
Xuan Ming took a deep breath, trying to make his tone sound as gentle, rational, and... not as guilty as possible.
"We finally managed to see each other; can we not... get straight to the point?"
"We really can't do it like this. Starting right away without any emotional buildup or romantic atmosphere... what's the difference between this and... well, you know?"
"We are gods, gods with class. We should chat first, look at the scenery, drink some tea, and slowly cultivate... Mmph!"
Before he could finish his sentence, Xuan Ming felt his vision blur.
Qian Renxue's exquisite face was almost touching the tip of his nose. In those golden eyes, the original holiness and majesty had long since vanished, replaced by two masses of raging fire capable of incinerating everything.
"Emotional buildup?"
Qian Renxue sneered, the suppressed anger in her voice causing the surrounding air to warp and distort.
"Xuan Ming, you have the nerve to talk to me about emotional buildup?"
"For these past ten years, you've been reveling every night with beauties in your arms, living a god-like Life. Of course you have the leisure for buildup and playing with the mood!"
"But what about me?!"
Qian Renxue grabbed Xuan Ming's collar, her eyes turning red and her voice trembling. "I've been alone in the God Realm for decades! Including the time I spent traveling through various planes in the Mortal Realm, I've endured alone for over a thousand years!"
"A thousand years of loneliness! A thousand years of longing! A thousand years of suppression!"
"My emotions have already built up to the point of exploding! My rationality was burned to ashes long ago!"
"Do I still need buildup now?!"
"Now, I just want to eat you up! The kind where not even bone fragments are left!"
Xuan Ming looked at the woman before him who was completely on the edge of a breakdown. He opened his mouth but found that he couldn't even utter a single word of rebuttal.
It was true.
Although his ten years had been tiring, it was a "sweet burden." But for Qian Renxue and the others, it was literal torment.
This was like someone who ate a Manchu-Han Imperial Feast every day telling a beggar who had been starving for three days: "Oh, eating requires a sense of ritual; you must first bathe with incense and chew slowly..."
Wasn't that just asking for a beating?
"But..."
Xuan Ming still wanted to make a final struggle. "This is really too hasty, and we're outdoors..."
"Hasty?"
Qian Renxue laughed out of sheer anger. "Fine, since you say it's hasty, then I'll give you something grand!"
Before she finished speaking, golden light erupted from her body.
"Boom—!!!"
A surge of scorching Angel Divine Power suddenly erupted, instantly burning the cumbersome robe on Xuan Ming's body into ashes.
Xuan Ming only felt a chill on his body. Before he could react, he saw the six massive golden wings behind Qian Renxue snap open, blotting out the sun.
Countless golden feathers fell and danced, quickly intertwining and overlapping around the two of them.
In the blink of an eye, a massive, sealed golden feather egg appeared out of thin air on the immortal island atop the sea of clouds.
Inside the eggshell, golden light flowed, holy and warm, and it was even thoughtfully lined with a thick layer of soft, cloud-like down feathers.
All sounds, light, and detection from the outside World were completely cut off.
This was an absolutely private, absolutely safe, and absolutely... ambiguous space.
"Now..."
Qian Renxue's perfect, naked body appeared exceptionally holy and seductive under the reflection of the golden light. She approached step by step, pushing Xuan Ming down onto that thick layer of down feathers, looking down at him with a gaze that held a hint of a queen's dominance and a young girl's charm.
"Is it grand enough? Is it private enough?"
"Xuan Ming, today even if you scream until your throat is hoarse, no one will come to save you."
...God Realm Committee, side hall.
The Ice Dragon King had just returned from a "business trip" to a certain lower plane with a weary Zi Ji. Before she even had time to drink some water, she sensed that unmasked, and even somewhat "arrogant," surge of Angel Divine Power from the Lower Realm.
She stood by the window, looking at the surging golden light beneath the sea of clouds, her expression becoming very strange.
Although as an ancient Spirit Beast who had lived for countless ages, she had long guessed there would be such a day.
However, when this day actually arrived, and she "saw" with her own eyes that mother and daughter throwing themselves into the same man's arms one after another, she couldn't help but feel a strange sensation in her heart.
"Is this... really okay?"
The Ice Dragon King murmured to herself, then turned and walked toward Bibi Dong, who was currently reviewing official documents.
Bibi Dong sat behind a massive desk, her dark red Asura Divine Raiment making her look incomparably majestic.
"Bibi Dong."
The Ice Dragon King walked up and, without any pleasantries, asked directly, "Do you really... not feel even a little bit weird?"
"Weird?"
Bibi Dong didn't even look up; the Divine Pen in her hand continued to move swiftly across the documents. "Are you talking about Xue'er going down to find Xuan Ming?"
"What else?"
The Ice Dragon King pulled over a chair and sat down, crossing her arms as she looked at her with an inquisitive gaze. "Although I know your relationship has softened quite a bit, she is, after all... your daughter. Your biological daughter."
"Now she's with your man, and in that... well, you know. Do you really not have any psychological barriers?"
The movement of Bibi Dong's hand finally stopped.
"If you're talking about the physical blood connection..."
Bibi Dong said calmly, "Back at the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well, Gu Yuena already used the Dragon God Power to help me completely reshape my body. Later, I underwent repeated tempering and reconstruction by the two divine forces of Rakshasa and Asura."
"This current divine body, from its genes to its Origin, has long since bid farewell to the Mortal Bibi Dong of the past."
"The so-called bloodline is nothing more than a trace left behind by that long-decayed body."
At this point, Bibi Dong paused.
"As for psychological issues... having experienced so many ups and downs, those mundane ethics and morals have long since lost their meaning to me."
"I've let it go, and Xue'er doesn't care. Since the parties involved feel it's fine, what is there for me to say?"
"And..."
"As long as she can be happy, and as long as she no longer lives in conflict and pain like before, what does it matter who she is with? Moreover, that person is Xuan Ming."
"That makes sense."
The Ice Dragon King blinked, her expression becoming increasingly strange. "But... let's imagine for a second, what if you both have children in the future?"
Bibi Dong's brow furrowed slightly: "What do you mean?"
"Look."
The Ice Dragon King began to count on her fingers. "Suppose you and Xuan Ming have a child; what should your child call Qian Renxue?"
"Conversely, if Qian Renxue and Xuan Ming have a child, what should her child call you?"
"Pfft—"
By the end, the Ice Dragon King couldn't help herself and burst out laughing.
Bibi Dong's face instantly darkened, and three black lines slid down her forehead.
This question... was indeed quite lethal.
"Ice Dragon King," Bibi Dong said through gritted teeth, "Are you too idle? Do you want me to arrange a few more planes for you to inspect?"
"No, no, no! I was just curious!"
The Ice Dragon King quickly waved her hands in apology, but the smile on her face was unstoppable. "You know that we Spirit Beasts don't care about these things. Look at Xiao Wu and A Rou."
"Before Xiao Wu went down, A Rou specifically instructed her on what to watch out for; after Xiao Wu came back, they were even whispering together over there..."
"The beast race indeed has no taboos in this regard; the strong are respected, and reproduction is paramount. But you humans... seem to always care about these ethics and morals, making yourselves very tired."
Bibi Dong looked speechlessly at this old Dragon who feared nothing more than a lack of chaos, took a deep breath, and forcibly suppressed the hint of embarrassment and annoyance in her heart.
"As you said, those are human taboos."
Bibi Dong regained her cold and noble appearance, saying with a firm tone, "But I am a god now."
"I've already said, the body of the past is long dead, and the current me has no biological relationship with the past."
"The bond between me and Qian Renxue stems more from the memories and emotions deep within our Souls, not from so-called DNA."
"In the World of gods, Soul resonance is the only standard."
"As for the titles..."
"To each their own. Gods possess eternal Life; this kind of seniority issue is not even worth mentioning in the long course of time."
"Fine, fine, you're right."
The Ice Dragon King quit while she was ahead, stood up, and stretched. "Anyway, as long as your family figures it out yourselves, it's fine. I'm just here for the show."
"However..."
She walked to the door, then looked back at Bibi Dong and said meaningfully.
"Even though you say it so easily, I see that the speed at which you're reviewing documents has clearly slowed down."
"What? Are you also thinking in your heart about when it will be your turn to go down for a honeymoon?"
"Get out!"
