Rebirth of the Supreme Celestial Being
chapter-775-9

Translated by Zaki

The Monster Hunting Feast was in the Southwest Land, so Xuan Wushe would naturally go to the Southwest to meet with other rulers to discuss related matters.

Ah Li: “Your Majesty, I have never been to the Southwest Land. I wonder if I can go with Your Majesty this time so as to benefit from it.”

Xuan Wushe did not care one way or another. “If you want to go, just go.”

Ah Li said happily, “Thank you, Your Majesty.”

Xuan Wushe glanced towards the Lotus Garden. He felt that he missed Lin Zhan a little, but also thought that Lin Guangling’s temper was getting really stubborn. He would rather hold out than take the initiative to look for him and wouldn’t even leave his door anymore. Could it be that Lin Zhan wanted Xuan Wushe to take the initiative to humble himself?

Xuan Wushe refused in his heart, but he still couldn’t help but go to the Lotus Garden.

Lin Zhan was leaning on the waterside pavilion of the Lotus Garden, holding a handful of lotus flowers just picked from the water, seeming to be asleep.

Xuan Wushe walked closer, then suddenly stopped.

Lin Zhan looked so obedient and beautiful when he was sleeping, which made Wushe’s heart soften.

But this person, when he was awake, was always irritating.

Xuan Wushe hadn’t seen Lin Zhan for a long time. He felt that Lin Zhan had lost a lot of weight, and he didn’t know if it was because he didn’t eat well during this period.

Xuan Wushe walked over, picked up Lin Zhan, and planned to take him into the house.

Although the scenery outside was beautiful, sleeping outside could easily make you feel sick.

Although most cultivators didn’t care much about it, Lin Zhan was weak and often suffered from headaches and fever.

Lin Zhan was already awake when he was picked up.

Lin Zhan hooked Xuan Wushe’s neck and murmured, “Your Majesty is done with his matters?”

Xuan Wushe looked at him and put him on the couch. “Do you think I haven’t come to see you all this time just because I’m busy?”

Lin Zhan nodded. “Otherwise, what else could it be? Is Your Majesty deliberately ignoring me?”

Xuan Wushe: “…”

Even though that was exactly the case, he couldn’t say it now.

His original intention was to make Lin Zhan reflect on his attitude and recognize his own status, but Lin Zhan unexpectedly slapped him down.

If he was to admit that he ignored Lin Zhan on purpose, it would appear that he was being petty.

Naturally, Xuan Wushe couldn’t lose this face, so he said calmly, “I have been too busy recently and have no time to see you. It seems that you are doing well even without me by your side.”

Xuan Wushe’s face turned cold as he looked at Lin Zhan. “What do you mean by this?”

Lin Zhan leaned against the soft couch with a free and relaxed posture, and said in a neutral tone, “Your Majesty, in fact, I am quite a very selfish person. I love myself more than you and I always have to leave something of a way out for myself.”

Xuan Wushe looked at Lin Zhan’s unsmiling eyes and felt a little panicked for some reason.

But he remained expressionless, then leaned over and pinched Lin Zhan’s chin. “Leave a way out? Your way out can only be given to you by me, you can’t leave a way out yourself.”

“Your Majesty is being too domineering.” Lin Zhan remained unmoved. “If Your Majesty wants to enjoy the blessings of everyone, then I will definitely not be among that ‘everyone’.”

Xuan Wushe: “Have you forgotten your identity?”

Lin Zhan smiled. “My identity is that I am Your Majesty’s male pet, but even if I am your male pet, I can only be the only one. As long as there is a second one, give me up first.”

Xuan Wushe gritted his teeth. “No one has ever dared to make such a request to me.”

Lin Zhan looked into his eyes. “Then I will be the first one. Your Majesty, a person I respect very much once taught me that even if you love someone, you must still have your own dignity. No matter how much you like him, you can never abandon your own principles.”

Xuan Wushe patted Lin Zhan’s face. “You are getting more and more disobedient.”

Lin Zhan: “Isn’t it because Your Majesty had a change of heart?”

Xuan Wushe narrowed his eyes and stared at Lin Zhan. “Do you have any misunderstandings about me? I am indeed happy to pamper you, but I have never loved you.”

Lin Zhan couldn’t tell what he felt in his heart.

He thought they at least loved each other.

Lin Zhan curled his lips with difficulty and held Xuan Wushe’s face. “Sometimes, I really want to block your mouth so that you can’t say anything unpleasant.”

Xuan Wushe bit Lin Zhan’s lips. “The feeling is mutual.”

Lin Zhan smiled and hooked his arms around Xuan Wushe’s neck. “Forget it, life just needs to be fun. What’s the point of talking about so many things?”

When Xuan Wushe left the Lotus Garden, it was already the afternoon of the next day.

Lin Zhan was sleeping soundly. The way he lay on the bed and slept peacefully with his long hair loose made Xuan Wushu feel very happy.

Xuan Wushe felt satisfied, but he still didn’t know where this sense of satisfaction came from.

After all, it was Lin Zhan’s body that fit him best.

After that day, the two of them never saw each other again.

Xuan Wushe went to attend the Monster Hunting Feast and took Ah Li with him. He did not tell

Lin Zhan when he left or when he would return.

Lin Zhan never asked.

One day, Lin Zhan left the Lotus Garden and went to the largest spiritual plant garden in the entire East Palace to pick some spiritual plants. He happened to meet several maidservants who were dedicated to serving Ah Li.

When the servants saw Lin Zhan, they deliberately said loudly —

“Our Young Lord, Ah Li, is now a favored person of His Majesty. His Majesty went to attend the Monster Hunting Feast, and he insisted on having Young Lord Ah Li accompany him.”

“After all, Young Lord Ah Li has won His Majesty’s favor in every way. His Majesty has called the Young Lord to accompany him almost every day in the past few months. I think that very soon, Young Lord Ah Li’s identity will be very different.”

“He’s not like a certain someone, who has nothing but a good-looking face.”

These words were meant for Lin Zhan to hear, and Lin Zhan actually heard them.

The maid next to him looked at Lin Zhan worriedly. “Your Highness, please don’t listen to these people’s nonsense.”

Lin Zhan blinked. “So they were talking nonsense.”

The maid: “Of course, these people just like to gossip behind people’s backs.”

Lin Zhan smiled playfully. “Since it is nonsense and just gossip, let’s deal with it according to the palace rules.”

The maid was stunned and saw that Lin Zhan had already summoned the hidden guard hiding around him all year round and said to them, “These people dare to speak mockingly and maliciously in front of me. Deal with them according to the rules of the palace.”

The people who were originally speaking were stunned.

They didn’t expect Lin Zhan to be so arrogant.

As the saying goes, beating a dog depends on the master. Their master was Ah Li, the most favored Young Lord today!

“Lin Guangling, you are just a mere male pet, how dare you————”

“Is a mere male pet like me someone you can criticize?” Lin Zhan raised the corners of his lips and said with a gentle smile, “The male pet belongs directly to His Majesty. If you dare to insult me, you are insulting His Majesty. I am clearing His Majesty’s name.”

“Lin Guangling, you will die a violent death!”

“Ahhh–”

Later, Lin Zhan learned that according to the rules of the East Palace, anyone who dared to insult the emperor behind his back would have their tongue pulled out and their cultivation disabled.

The rules of the East Palace were so strict, and it was only then that Lin Zhan suddenly understood how much of a challenge his arrival had brought to the rules of the East Palace.

It must’ve been hard for the East Sovereign to tolerate him like that.

Xuan Wushe only went to the Southwest Land to discuss relevant matters. Before the Monster Hunting Feast began, he would not stay in the Southwest Land all the time.

Xuan Wushe returned to the East Palace a month later.

Ah Li was happily holding the many gifts he had received along the way and was about to find someone to help him move them back to his residence. He then discovered that several of his most considerate servants had their tongues pulled out and sent to the spiritual plants field to work as a weeder over there.

Ah Li’s eyes were immediately filled with tears.

Xuan Wushe naturally also heard about this and frowned. “It’s just a few servants, I’ll give you a few more.”

Ah Li looked at Xuan Wushe and sniffed. “They all grew up with me. They have always been the most disciplined. If they really offended Brother Guangling, then they deserve to be like this, but wouldn’t it be pitiful if they were punished for no reason?”

Xuan Wushe: “What do you want?”

Apologize.

Ah Li: “I’m going to confront Brother Guangling. If it’s his fault, I’ll make him pay for my servants.”

Xuan Wushe didn’t want to deal with these trivial matters, but Ah Li was convinced that his servants were innocent , and Xuan Wushe also wanted to meet Lin Zhan, so he finally agreed.

Xuan Wushe took Ah Li to the Lotus Garden.

Lin Zhan was originally fishing, but when he saw the two of them arriving together, the smile on his face faded.

Lin Zhan said very coldly, “What are you doing here, Your Majesty?”

Xuan Wushe frowned slightly. “Why, I can’t come here?”

Lin Zhan looked at the lotus flowers that had blossomed more brilliantly through his hands, “You’re still bringing someone else, don’t you know I don’t like noise?”

Lin Zhan didn’t like noisy places; he didn’t even like those cultivators in the Nine Lands, so he begged for this basically isolated from the world Lotus Garden as his residence.

Ah Li stared at Lin Zhan. “I’m here to seek justice from you.”

Lin Zhan glanced at Ah Li and continued to catch his fish. “What justice can you ask for?”

Ah Li: “My three servants all had their tongues pulled out and their cultivations cut off by someone you sent. They have always been obedient and stayed away from you. I don’t know where they offended Lord Guangling.”

“You can just ask someone to ask about this kind of thing. Is it worth it to come to me directly?”

After a pause, he continued to say, “I don’t welcome you here, please leave.”

Ah Li’s eyes suddenly turned red. He looked towards Xuan Wushe for help.

Lin Zhan sneered and Xuan Wushe felt ashamed. If it was just Ah Li, Lin Zhan’s attitude would be fine, but he himself was standing here, and Lin Zhan dared not to give him any face. He was really audacious.

Xuan Wushe’s voice was cold, “Lin Guangling, am I doting on you too much, which makes you so arrogant?

“So what does Your Majesty want to do?” Lin Zhan smiled back without getting angry when he heard the words, and even hooked his lips at Xuan Wushe. “Are you going to drive me out of here, or what?”
