Chapter 821: Chapter 417: The Gloomy Rabbit

Eastern Emperor Taiyi looked at Qin Shou in surprise, then nodded and said, "No problem."

After speaking, Eastern Emperor Taiyi was about to walk away again.

Qin Shou called out again, "Wait a minute."

Eastern Emperor Taiyi said with a sobbing tone, "Big Brother, can’t we just finish all the business at once? It took me so much effort to woo a fairy and we’ve already started making babies, can you pick up the pace?"

Qin Shou said, "There’s a Saint on the other side!"

The smile on Eastern Emperor Taiyi’s face suddenly stiffened, then he laughed and said, "I just knew it!"

Then Eastern Emperor Taiyi turned and walked away.

Qin Shou asked, "Are you still going to fight this battle?"

Eastern Emperor Taiyi didn’t even turn his head back and waved his hand, saying, "Fight! It’s not like I’ve never fought before!"

"You can’t win!" Qin Shou shouted.

Eastern Emperor Taiyi suddenly turned around, and for the first time, Qin Shou saw something ferocious and crazy in the eyes of this cynical man!

Eastern Emperor Taiyi’s mouth split into a smile as he spoke deliberately, "Either I kill them, or they kill me!"

After saying this, Eastern Emperor Taiyi disappeared.

Qin Shou sighed and said, "Why bother?"

"That’s his pride," a familiar voice said.

Qin Shou whirled around and grabbed the person’s neck, shouting, "You bastard, why did you trick me? Saying I can’t touch the resentment blood of the living spirit? You’ve really set me up!"

The comer was none other than Wu Gang, whom Qin Shou hadn’t seen in a long time.

Wu Gang said with a smile, "Alright, stop making a fuss. It looks like you already know the reasons, so there’s no need for me to explain, right?"

Qin Shou nodded and said, "I know some of it, but there are still things I don’t understand. You... why did you stay on the moon, really?"

Wu Gang looked up at the sky and said, "Actually, it’s nothing, I am a witch..."

Qin Shou wore a look of confusion.

Wu Gang yawned and said, "I used to have another name."

Qin Shou asked curiously, "What is it?"

Wu Gang chuckled and said, "Xingtian!"

"What?!" Qin Shou was instantly dumbfounded and stunned...

Wu Gang laughed and said, "That’s right, I am that unlucky guy who was beheaded by Emperor Huang but still wielded his axe to ascend to Heaven. Many years ago I didn’t even know I was a witch. Later, after Emperor Yan was defeated by Emperor Huang, the two had an all-night talk and united as one. I couldn’t accept it, and so I severed ties on the spot, then things happened just as the rumors say. Unable to defeat Emperor Huang, I was beheaded and buried on Changyang Mountain. Later, unable to accept my fate, I ascended once more to Heaven.

Only this time, the one who acted wasn’t Emperor Huang, it was Emperor Yan.

To say he acted was actually just a show.

Emperor Yan was mainly trying to persuade me and promised me a great opportunity, a massive fortune.

At that time, I still took Emperor Yan at his word, so I followed his advice, played dead, turned into Wu Gang, and pretended to tease his daughter. Actually, I just shot a glance from afar, and then Emperor Yan used the chance to toss me onto the moon. This godforsaken place where no birds fly, nobody would care about here, no one would notice here, and so I survived right under Emperor Huang’s nose.

As for your soul being snatched from another world, it was actually Emperor Yan’s arrangement.

But from what he said, it seems he was also entrusted by someone. As for who that person was, he didn’t say.

However, I reckon, that person must be at least a Saint!"

Qin Shou opened his mouth in disbelief and said, "Goodness, so all of this was orchestrated by you, and I’ve been put through a grand performance?"

Wu Gang replied with a wry smile, "You could say that. Honestly, if someone hadn’t wanted you to return, you’d still be in that universe of yours, acting as some Heavenly Lord."

Thinking of the time when he first met Wu Gang and extorted him, Qin Shou followed up with an awkward smile, "Well, since I’m here, I won’t pursue it further."

In fact, up to now, Qin Shou held no resentment for being manipulated by either Wu Gang or Emperor Yan; on the contrary, he was quite grateful to them.

Without them, Qin Shou would still be obliviously scraping by on Earth... No, he’d be dead by now!

Even if he hadn’t died, facing the invasion of the Black Mirror, that would’ve been a certain death!

Besides, since coming here, though he had suffered a great deal, he had also met a lot of people who were incredibly precious to him.

"Wu Gang... Xingtian?" Qin Shou shook his head. Honestly, he just couldn’t see the two as the same person; the difference was too vast!

Wu Gang patted Qin Shou’s shoulder and said, "Alright, you know what you need to. Any more questions?"

Looking up at Xingtian, Qin Shou asked, "What exactly is your strength? I feel like, you don’t seem like an Emperor-level expert at all?"

Wu Gang smiled slightly and said, "Me? A great witch! But due to my bloodline, my strength fell a bit short of Emperor level, not enough to contend with the Yan Emperor and Huang Emperor. However, after I brought you over, someone helped me activate my bloodline, and my powers advanced by leaps and bounds. Later, your sister lent me a hand too, and though my strength isn’t up to that of an Ancestor Witch, swatting a few Overlords below Level Nine is no problem!"

Upon hearing this, Qin Shou looked at Wu Gang with envy and said, "Why can’t my sister help me out too... never mind..."

As Qin Shou spoke, he suddenly sighed, waved his hand dejectedly, and said, "Let’s go; no more talking, just drinking... never mind, you better not go."

Qin Shou had originally wanted to drink with Wu Gang to relieve his boredom, but then he remembered that after drinking, Wu Gang couldn’t recognize anyone, so he decisively gave up the idea.

The two returned to the Moon, and Wu Gang went to find the King of Osmanthus Tree, saying that with an imminent battle, he was sure to be called to arms.

He and the King of Osmanthus Tree had acted out many roles over innumerable years on the Moon. To coordinate with Emperor Yan’s grand scheme, Emperor Yan had planted the Red Flame Lock in him, which would cause agony whenever he used his Magic, relieved only by the King of Osmanthus Tree’s help... So, before leaving, he wanted to catch up with the King of Osmanthus Tree one more time.

After seeing off Wu Gang, Qin Shou realized that although many Immortals frequented the Moon, there were very few combat-type Immortals to be seen.

Instead, there was an abundance of families, elders, children, and fairies.

All of them knew that Qin Shou was the master of the Moon, so they greeted him respectfully upon seeing him.

Qin Shou had no airs, and he responded to each greeting in turn.

When he returned to the Moon Palace, he saw Chang’e standing at the doorway, her face alight with a welcoming smile.

"Are you back?" Chang’e asked.

Qin Shou nodded and sighed, "Yeah, I’m back."

Chang’e tilted her head and looked at Qin Shou, "You... don’t plan on going out anymore?"

Qin Shou was taken aback, then looked around as if he’d seen a ghost, then at himself, and finally at Chang’e...

Chang’e smiled and picked Qin Shou up, saying, "The whole world may not understand you, but I do. If you’re tired and don’t want to go out anymore, then stay... Speaking of which, you should make some new clothes for me."

Leaning into Chang’e’s embrace, Qin Shou felt that familiar warmth, instinctively squinted his eyes, relaxed his whole body, and chuckled, "Mhm, won’t go out... I’ve got the clothes covered. By the way, shouldn’t we take new measurements for you? Hey, hey... don’t twist my ear! Ow, ow!"
