There is bound to be some awkwardness today.

“Do I need to transform into Zi Yao’s state?

It’s merely a change of makeup, altering the temperament, and making the body a bit more slender.”

While Jade Pool thought so, she couldn’t help but be slightly lost in thought.

Until beside her, the Kunlun Mirror slightly trembled, and the report from a fairy echoed from outside: “Master, the Heavenly Emperor has suddenly appeared in front of the secret realm’s gate!”

“Oh?”

Jade Pool contemplated, then spoke in a calm tone:

“Instruct the Mountain God to open the true mystery gate of the secret realm to welcome him!

“All living beings outside the secret realm must perform the kneeling salute, while all immortals inside the secret realm should pay attention to their appearances; anyone who neglects the proprieties will accept their own punishment.”

Responses from the fairies echoed from all directions, and countless fairy shadows flew out from within and outside the palace.

Jade Pool glanced at her reflection in the mirror, and found her makeup to be flawless.

She lifted her delicate fingers and took a piece of expensive red paper, brought it to her lips, gently pressed them together, and when she opened her eyes, there was a new hint of fighting spirit in them.

“Alright, you may all disperse now, go and tidy up the inner hall.”

“Yes.”

Meanwhile.

At the entrance to the secret realm of West Kunlun.

Li Ping’an and Mother Guiling descended on clouds in front of the giant stone gate.

This stone gate has stood for an unknown length of time, and at its center is a slowly rotating vortex.

On both sides of the gate were thin membranes that were semi-translucent.

Half of Kunlun Mountain was shrouded in this curtain of light from the large formation.

Without a word from him, dozens of golden lights flew out of the vortex in the gate, transforming into numerous fierce beings clad in golden armor, seventy percent of whom were women, all ranging within the power of the Golden Immortal Realm.

A show of power?

Li Ping’an slightly raised an eyebrow, about to borrow the authority of the Heavenly Dao to reveal his favored status;

The several dozens of guardian spirit-generals of the West Kunlun gate all knelt on one knee at the same time, bowing their heads in respect to Li Ping’an:

“Hail the Emperor!”

Li Ping’an held his left hand behind his back, and with his right hand esteemed in front of him, spoke in a warm voice: “Generals, there is no need for such formalities.”

At this moment, the swirling vortex of the gate had ceased spinning, and ripples gently appeared within the door frame, slowly revealing two stone doors.

Following that, the stone doors opened slowly, and three divine beasts flew out from within.

To the left was a Kirin gleaming with golden light, the mount of the Queen Mother, whom in the ancient times rode to visit various Great Powers across the heavens and the earth.

In the center stood the famous guardian spirit-beast of Kunlun Mountain, the Kaiming Beast, resembling a huge tiger with nine heads, all with human faces, the guardian spirit-beast of the Queen Mother’s gate, and its strength could discreetly rival that of the several supreme old demons overseeing the Demon Race.

On the right was the Qingluan, a divine bird that Li Ping’an had seen a few times before.

The three divine beasts simultaneously shrank their bodies, landed on the ground, emitting low roars or subdued chirps, inviting Li Ping’an inside.

Guilingling quietly marveled: “What an impressive display.”

Although Li Ping’an truly wanted to laugh, he could not manage it now.

He had already planned that if the Queen Mother maintained her haughty attitude today, he could feign displeasure and delay matters until the Holy Mother returned.

But looking at it now…

He started to worry whether he might carelessly promise some condition later.

“My thanks to all.”

Li Ping’an said with a smile, and then glided ahead low to the ground on his clouds, accompanied by the three great divine beasts, while the guarding generals looked on, entering the lush and verdant secret realm that lay before him.

The rich Spiritual Energy that was almost condensing into droplets hit his face, and upon entering, he saw a vast forest.

The air was very fresh here; Li Ping’an felt invigorated, clear-headed and his vision sharp.

Looking around, he could see countless villages scattered among the trees, with quite a few mortals living and recuperating here, approximately millions in number.

Interestingly, these villages were predominantly female, and it seemed that women were honored everywhere;

Women were working in the fields while men gathered at the village entrance, taking care of children, washing clothes, cooking, and chatting idly.

Then, with a thunderous rumble, the stone gate behind him slowly closed.

Li Ping’an’s Immortal Consciousness scanned it and found that the gate had reverted to its vortex form, with the several tens of golden-armored warriors standing in two lines behind it, one facing outwards and the other inwards.

The Qingluan took it upon itself to fly under Li Ping’an and Guilingling and carried them towards the depths of the secret realm.

The Kaiming Beast and the golden Kirin did not move forward.

Guilingling admired: “This really is an excellent place for cultivation, even richer in Spiritual Energy than Jinao Island during the Desolate Era.”

“There are also quite a few large formations here,” Li Ping’an said with a smile, “with hidden entrapment and lethal arrays all around, it is evident that Zi Yao was also worried about whether she could hold her ground during the Desolate Era.”

While they were speaking, suddenly, a glimmer of rosy light flickered ahead.

Accompanied by myriad rosy lights, hundreds of fairies flew out from the vortex in the depths of the secret realm, each one of them stunningly beautiful, graced with heavenly charm, wearing uniforms of rainbow skirts of various colors, and as they arrayed themselves in formation, they began to dance gracefully.

At the entrance to the inner secret realm, countless petals slowly drifted down, forming a ‘red carpet.’

Li Ping’an and Guilingling stepped off the Qingluan and walked along the petal-laden path, the beauty of the Immortal Realm before their eyes, which inevitably stirred emotions within their hearts.

Truly, the reputation of Jade Pool’s dance …
