Keyboard Immortal - Chapter 2889

Chapter 1402 Open and Honest

After the wedding, Zu An found an opportunity to speak privately with the Nine Heavens Mystic Maiden: “Thank you for the medicine, Mystic Maiden.”

The peaches of immortality and the Jade Pool Elixir were both top-grade; they should be able to save Yao Ji. He was in high spirits.

“You’re too kind, Heavenly Emperor.” The Nine Heavens Mystic Maiden nodded slightly, then prepared to take her leave. Her distant attitude showed that she wasn’t particularly interested in this Heavenly Emperor, and even harbored a hint of disdain.

Zu An’s heart skipped a beat: “Red Tears?”

The Nine Heavens Mystic Maiden, who had just turned to leave, suddenly trembled, turning back to look at Zu An with utter shock. However, upon seeing his face, she quickly regained her composure: “What is the Heavenly Emperor saying?”

Her fleeting change in expression did not escape Zu An’s notice. He suppressed his inner joy, avoiding any appearance of surprise from the other immortals nearby, and resumed his original voice: “It’s me.”

The Nine Heavens Mystic Maiden’s previously wary and cold gaze instantly burst forth with delight: “A-Zu?”

Zu An hummed in response. However, the two were already the most eye-catching figures in the Heavenly Palace, and after only a few words, many people had already turned to look.

After all, Di Jun’s womanizing nature was well-known, and everyone assumed he had taken a liking to the Nine Heavens Mystic Maiden again.

They all secretly cursed him as a scumbag, still flirting with other women on his wedding day.

“Go wait for me in that room over there,” Zu An secretly instructed.

“Alright!” The Nine Heavens Mystic Maiden’s cheeks flushed slightly, and she quickly flew away into the distance. Once out of the sight of the gods, she secretly circled back to the Celestial Palace from another location.

Zu An exchanged pleasantries with the various forces for a while, then, unable to contain his excitement any longer, he found an excuse to come to the agreed-upon place.

As soon as he entered, seeing that familiar figure, Zu An excitedly walked over: “Red Tears!”

The Nine Heavens Mystic Maiden, however, took a step back, clearly hesitant.

Zu An then realized what was happening and reverted to his original appearance.

Qiu Red Tears, though surprised, also asked with a hint of confusion: “Zu An, what are you doing here?”

“I found the Treasure Box of Creation and wanted to return to the Heavenly Court to save the Goddess of Wushan and the Ancient Mermaid Queen, but somehow I ended up in this era,” Zu An explained.

Confirming it was true, Qiu Honglei could no longer contain her emotions and threw herself into his arms: “Azu, I thought I’d never see you again.”

Zu An hugged her tightly, equally excited: “Last time I returned to the cultivation world, I found you were all missing. I heard you went to the Temple of Immortality, but I couldn’t find you anywhere. By the way, how did you end up here?”

“I participated in several trials at the Temple of Immortality, and then somehow I ended up in this world. At first, I thought I had returned to the Heavenly Court world, but later I realized it was a much more ancient era…”

The two recounted the events of their separation, their hearts filled with emotion.

Suddenly, Zu An seemed to sense something and turned around to see Xi He, dressed in a wedding robe, standing at the door, sneering at him.

Xi He’s anger level increased by 444…

This guy is truly despicable! He’s marrying me today, but then he turns around and hugs another woman.

Right, it seems he came to this world for another woman.

“Is he really not Di Jun? Of the ten fairies I’ve encountered on my journey, probably eleven are related to him.”

Zu An was also somewhat embarrassed: “Xi He, it’s not what you think.”

“I think this marriage is better off not happening.” Xi He was about to pull off her phoenix crown when Zu An reacted quickly, stopping her.

Xi He’s hand was held down, her face growing even colder: “Since you like the Nine Heavens Mystic Maiden so much, then marry her. I can go out and announce to the world that I’m abdicating.”

“Sister Xi He, you’ve really misunderstood. We actually knew each other a long time ago,” Qiu Honglei hurriedly explained. “We had a pretty good relationship in our later lives.”

Xi He was stunned, turning to look at Zu An: “She’s also from our later lives?”

Zu An nodded, briefly explaining Qiu Honglei’s background.

Xi He was utterly speechless: “You cried so bitterly outside the Guanghan Palace before, I thought you were a devoted man, but I never expected you to be even more of a womanizer than Di Jun!”

Qiu Honglei smiled: “That guy is indeed a womanizer, but he’s still better than Di Jun.”

Having been in this world for some time, she naturally knew about Di Jun’s reputation.

“Since you two were already a couple, I shouldn’t have interfered.” Seeing how closely the two were behaving, Xi He felt disheartened.

Who knew that Qiu Honglei would casually take her arm: “Actually, you were also a couple in your future lives, I didn’t expect you to reunite in this world so early, you should be happy.”

Xi He: “…”

“How many things have you been hiding from me!”

Seeing that she was really annoyed, Zu An knew that if some things weren’t explained clearly, they might leave indelible scars in the other person’s heart.

So he roughly recounted the things related to her in her future lives.

Xi He initially thought it was just his sweet talk, but as she listened, her expression became more and more serious.

“Are you saying that the reason we’ll meet in the future is because you shot and killed my nine sons?” Xihe gritted her teeth, her gaze towards Zu’an suddenly turning hostile.

“It was an accident. I suspect someone is manipulating cause and effect,” Zu’an explained.

Xihe’s expression grew even colder: “No matter who manipulated cause and effect, you still killed my sons!”

Qiu Honglei glanced at the two of them with some worry. She didn’t understand why Zu’an was telling Xihe all this; wouldn’t that affect the future timeline?

“Is it possible that they were also my sons?” Zu’an sighed.

Xihe’s eyes widened in shock: “???”

Zu’an then explained, “Think about it, I am now Dijun, we are officially husband and wife, so your child is my child.”

Xihe was both ashamed and angry: “You’re still taking advantage of me at this time?”

Zu’an’s expression was serious: “It’s not taking advantage, but the real Dijun is likely dead now. In the foreseeable future, I am Dijun, and your son is naturally my son.”

Xihe’s expression shifted: “So you killed your own son?”

Qiu Honglei hurriedly explained, “Later, he also rescued those Golden Crow Princes.”

“That was just reincarnation,” Xihe said coldly.

“Things may not be beyond redemption,” Zu’an said in a deep voice.

“How can they be redeemed? According to what you said, even if I put in all my efforts in the future, I still won’t be able to change their fate of being shot down!”

“I forgot to tell you, I also have another identity, the messenger of chaos and mystery, the historian of time, who is skilled at rewriting history.” For the first time, Zu’an was grateful for his identity.

Xihe blinked, somewhat puzzled.

Qiu Honglei quickly explained, “Sister Xihe, this isn’t the first or second time he’s done something like this. Before, he made Chang’e and the Goddess of Wushan…”

Suddenly, she remembered something, “Oh no, Brother Zu, the Queen Mother of the West’s elixir of immortality can only allow the living to live another life. Those who have already died will only become monsters if they take the elixir. Have you forgotten about the Yayu of later generations?”

Zu An’s expression changed instantly.
