Chapter 1077 - 35: Want to See You

"Wha, what? What did you say?" The Jade Emperor was a bit tongue-tied as well, staring wide-eyed at Tianmiao.

"I admire the Jade Emperor," Tianmiao slowly and deliberately repeated, word by word.

"You, how can you like two people?" The Queen Mother glared and reproached urgently.

True Monarch Hanshan watched the Queen Mother with an expression of bewilderment. No, Queen Mother, isn’t your focus off? The key issue is my disciple falling for someone from the mortal world, not liking two people like some unfaithful man!

"Because both the Jade Emperor and the Queen Mother are so outstanding, I can’t choose between them," Tianmiao sighed softly, her beautiful eyes looking at the two sitting at the highest point, her words lingering.

The Jade Emperor and the Queen Mother exchanged a look, seeing complexity in each other’s eyes.

"Gold Star Taibai is also excellent, making me feel a fondness as well." Tianmiao looked at Gold Star Taibai and smiled slightly.

Gold Star Taibai, who had been in the background all this time, almost popped his eyes out upon hearing this. What’s going on?

"Lord Lao Zi of the Great Monad’s skills in Alchemy are divine as well, making one yearn. Just a glance at his bearing makes it hard to look away," Tianmiao said, looking at the tranquil Lord Lao Zi of the Great Monad, delivering this shocking line.

Lord Lao Zi of the Great Monad became rigid all over.

"Nonsense!" The Queen Mother pointed her round fan at Tianmiao, "What are you doing?"

"I have foolishly allowed my heart to be moved by worldly desires, liking so many people, but my favorite is still the Queen Mother. And the Queen Mother has accepted my token of love. Aren’t we in a secret mutual exchange? What should I do? Jade Emperor, I don’t want the Queen Mother to be implicated and cast down to the Mortal World because of me." Tianmiao looked at the Jade Emperor, her beautiful eyes full of sorrow.

"Impossible, the Queen Mother certainly won’t be cast down to the Mortal World, and neither will you." The Jade Emperor replied hastily, seeing Tianmiao’s sorrowful expression.

The Queen Mother glared, "What nonsense are you talking about?"

"But my senior sister doesn’t like that Bai He Immortal, nor did she accept any gifts from him. She was only tricked by Bai He into a confession and then was accused of harboring worldly desires, facing being cast down to the Mortal World." Tianmiao looked sorrowfully at the Queen Mother, her beautiful eyes shimmering.

"So you were waiting for me?" The Queen Mother realized, shaking her fan. "I was wondering why you started spouting nonsense."

"It’s not nonsense. I have genuine feelings for the Queen Mother, evident to sun and moon. That fan is also the first Magic Artifact I crafted, my most treasured possession." Tianmiao retorted immediately.

"Uh..." The Queen Mother’s hand holding the fan halted.

The Jade Emperor stared at Tianmiao, hoping eagerly that Tianmiao would say the same thing to him, but Tianmiao remained silent.

"Bring Bai He Immortal and Yi Lan here!" The Queen Mother waved her fan, feeling a bit heated all over, eager to resolve this matter quickly.

Soon, Bai He Immortal and Yi Lan were brought in.

Bai He Immortal looked passionately at Yi Lan, but Yi Lan didn’t spare him a single glance, her eyes focused on her master and Tianmiao. Meeting her master’s worried gaze, Yi Lan felt immensely guilty, fearing she had caused trouble for her master. Although she often told Tianmiao that if trouble arose, she should rely on her master, she had never done so. Even when wronged, she silently endured, not wanting to burden her master with trouble.

True Monarch Hanshan saw the guilt in Yi Lan’s eyes and knew exactly what she was reproaching herself for. Silly child! Always bearing things alone, resulting in an outcome like this. Why not trust her master a little more? If she had told her master earlier, it wouldn’t have escalated to this point. It’s all my fault for not protecting my disciple well enough.
