Who Stole My Eggs?

“Heavenly Father…” Bloody tears flowed from Xie Xiao’s eyes. “Please, Heavenly Father, save me. I don’t want to die!”

Tiandi said, “Why don’t you want to die?”

Xie Xiao spat out a mouthful of dirty blood. “I have ten beautiful guards at home, and I haven’t gotten the tenth one yet, so I won’t die!”

Even though Wu Xiao was extremely thick-skinned, he was speechless when he heard this. “What else can you do besides mess around? Why didn’t you say that you would kill everyone who harmed you?”

Xie Xiao sneered. “I kill others, and others can kill me. I am destined to be assassinated by these turtle grandsons. Otherwise, how could I allow them to get close? I only hate that Old Tenth has no eyesight and has rejected me again and again. Heavenly Father, I don’t want to die. I haven’t enjoyed it enough!”

Tiandi smiled. “So many people have asked me to extend their lifespan, and most of them gave some high-sounding reasons, as if the world would be completely destroyed without them. You’re honest.”

“Heavenly Father has always been so magnanimous.” Xie Xiao was already breathing more out than in. “As long as Heavenly Father is willing to save me, I can do anything you want…”

Tiandi touched his chin and said, “Deal.”

Wu Xiao was shocked. “Heavenly Father…”

Tiandi waved his hand. “Leave her to me, and you go.”

Wu Xiao was puzzled, but he didn’t dare to ask any more questions. He closed the door and left.

So, when Huo Yao came back, Wu Xiao was the only one left on the island.

Wu Xiao saw that Huo Yao always had a bad look on his face. “Why are you back again? Why haven’t you become a monk yet, Daoist Master Huo?”

Huo Yao ignored him. “Where is Heavenly Father?”

Wu Xiao shrugged. “On a date.”

Huo Yao’s heart suddenly shrank. “With whom?”

“Demon King Xie Xiao,” Wu Xiao rolled his eyes toward the sky. “I really couldn’t guess it, that Heavenly Father would be so fond of this snake.”

“Impossible!” Huo Yao said flatly.

Wu Xiao looked at him in surprise. “What’s impossible? Xie Xiao is the most beautiful woman in the six realms. Who could resist her?”

Then, Wu Xiao told Huo Yao about Tiandi’s intervention to extend Xie Xiao’s life and the fierce fight with her. When it was over, he sighed. “No wonder Heavenly Father was willing to save her.”

Huo Yao’s mind was buzzing. Heavenly Father was actually agreeing to Xie Xiao… He couldn’t believe it. He couldn’t accept it!

The flames of jealousy and resentment burned in Huo Yao’s heart, almost completely engulfing him. For so long, he had been diligent and restrained, studying Buddhism, thinking that he had already broken through the world of mortal’s emotion. Unexpectedly, Heavenly Father would immediately pull him back to earth.

Wu Xiao asked him, “Tell me, should we prepare a wedding for them?”

Huo Yao gave him a cold look and left without saying a word.

.

Half a month later, Tiandi came back with a red face, and when he saw Huo Yao, he looked more friendly than before.

Huo Yao was originally jealous, but when he saw Tiandi so happy, he couldn’t get angry anymore and just asked him how he had been having fun out there.

“Very good, it’s so fun!” Tiandi said with a smile.

Huo Yao was about to ask him some more when he suddenly found that one of Tiandi’s arms had turned translucent. He was shocked and quickly pulled his hand back. “Heavenly Father, what’s going on?”

Tiandi said “Ah, this body is really useless.”

“What do you mean? What do you mean it’s useless? Heavenly Father, what’s wrong with you?” Huo Yao was anxious.

“Don’t worry, don’t be anxious,” Tiandi patted Huo Yao comfortingly. “It’s nothing. I used my spirit to walk in the world. The spirit has a time limit. It should disappear after being used for so long.”

“Walk? Vanishing… Heavenly Father, where are you going?”

“Return to the true body,” Tiandi said. “My true body is the land of void, and I have to go back sooner or later. Since you have discovered it, you can send me back. Don’t let Wu Xiao know, or he will pester me again. Just say I went there to take a look; I’ll be back soon.”

“Heavenly Father!” Huo Yao roared, startling Tiandi. “Are you kidding? What return? If you return, can we still see you?”

Tiandi was still very touched that Huo Yao cared about him so much. However, he couldn’t say it now, so he could only coax him first. “I’ll definitely see you again. I’ll go and recuperate for a while, and then I can come down and stay with you for a long time.”

Huo Yao was doubtful.

Tiandi took out his trump card. “I have to go back. I am in charge of the laws of heaven and earth. If I am absent for a long time, it will cause an imbalance in the six realms, which will harm innocent creatures. Then my sin will be great.”

Huo Yao held Tiandi’s hand tightly, and for a long time, he choked and said, “Okay, I’ll take you back. You must come back.”

“No problem!”

Even so, the matter about Tiandi returning couldn’t be hidden from Wu Xiao, because his body would disappear from time to time. Wu Xiao hung around him all day long and soon discovered something was wrong.

As Tiandi expected, Wu Xiao made a fuss about his return. He wasn’t as reasonable as Huo Yao. No matter what Tiandi said, Wu Xiao just refused to listen and insisted on using various methods to make Tiandi stay.

Tiandi was annoyed by him, so he simply ran out and stayed away for several months.

It was another full moon night, and Huo Yao was taking a bath in his room.

Tiandi suddenly came back. Without knocking on the door, he came directly in and told Huo Yao that he and Xie Xiao had been in love for a long time. Xie Xiao was already pregnant with his flesh and blood. He asked Huo Yao to help take care of the child after he returned to the land of void.

“Xie Zuo, I have thought of a good name for him. Let’s call him Xie Zuo!” Tiandi looked at Huo Yao, expecting him to come up with a name. When he didn’t, Tiandi might as well do it himself.

Looking at the translucent Tiandi, Huo Yao couldn’t bear to vent his pain and anger, so he had to grit his teeth and agree.

Until that day, Huo Yao personally sent Tiandi back to the land of void.

Tiandi merged into the land of void in front of Huo Yao’s eyes. When Huo Yao left, Tiandi silently turned into an inconspicuous meteor, falling from the land of void and entering Xie Xiao’s belly.

Xie Xiao felt something in her heart and touched her belly with satisfaction. “Don’t worry, Heavenly Father, I will definitely keep my promise.”

At the same time, Yue Rong emerged from the river of void and looked at the empty land of void. “Heavenly Father? Heavenly Father—!”

Why, as soon as he felt that Heavenly Father was back, his consciousness completely disappeared. Heavenly Father, he… he had been swallowed up by the entire void!

Note

So it’s all clear now.
