Chapter 824: Phoenix Doesn’t Like You

The next day, news regarding Phoenix’s arrival in Tian Dao got about.

All immortals were gathered together to discuss matters concerning Tian Dao and from time to time, they would take a peep at the Emperor who was sitting on the throne.

When the crowd dismissed, the elderly who planned to introduce the Snow Mountain Goddess to the Emperor approached him and asked carefully, “Emperor, I heard that Phoenix went to see you last night?”

“Yes.” The man took a glance at the elderly. A faint smile appeared at the corner of his lips as he recalled Phoenix’s words from yesterday, “What’s the matter?”

Since the Emperor had spoken up, the elderly did not dawdle to avoid being pretentious, “Was Phoenix there to pick a fight with Your Highness? Who won the fight at last? Please don’t get me wrong, Emperor. I just thought that the Sea of Blood had just been cleared, it’s not a suitable time to have fights within Buddhism.”

The elderly added on with an explanation at the end of his speech, fearing that the Emperor would misunderstand him.

“Who told you that she was here to pick a fight with me?” The man sat with his legs crossed as he curled his lower lip while facing the elderly.

The elderly could not figure out the emotions behind his posture. However, other than picking a fight, the elderly had no idea why Phoenix would come looking for the Emperor.

Buddhism would not tolerate the Emperor for bringing demons and monsters to Mountain Tenya on a frequent basis.

It was reasonable for them to send Phoenix over to wipe them out.

So...

“If it’s not about a fight, then what was it?” The elderly asked in disbelief.

At that, the other immortals slowed down their pace in the hope of some gossip.

The man stood up and walked up to the elderly with his slender legs, “As my fiancé, she was here to strengthen our bond.”

The elderly almost choked himself to death on his own saliva. He spoke in complete shock, “Strengthening bonds? Fiancé?!” This was even scarier than meeting their doom!

The Emperor darted a look at him, “What’s wrong? Don’t you know about the news that we got together on the day of the feast?”

“Isn’t that’s just a rumor?” The elderly had not taken that matter seriously.

The Emperor curled his thin lips, appearing to be charming in an evil way, “It’s not a rumor, she is currently staying in my royal chamber.”

It was at that moment that the Great Hall went into turmoil.

The immortals who were about to leave stopped their steps and started engaging in active conversation, “What the Emperor said just now can’t be true?!”

“It seems very likely to be true, the Emperor would never joke about this sort of thing.”

“But from what I’ve heard, Phoenix was carrying her weapon when she arrived yesterday?”

“I’m not sure about that, but it doesn’t matter what Phoenix had brought, the point is that she is now staying with the Emperor!”

The man did not mind the discussion going around him, in fact, he was actually enjoying the scene. From today onward, no one would come and trouble him with anymore matchmaking. Moreover, no matter if it was Tian Dao or Buddhism, everyone would know that Phoenix now belonged to him.

Yue Lao looked at the facial expression of the Emperor as the fear on his face thickened.

He could not bear it anymore. As the man stepped out of Heaven, he chased after him.

“Emperor, Emperor, please wait for me.” It was physically draining for Yue Lao to keep up with the man.

The man stopped the cloud drift beneath him. Emotionlessly, he took a quick glance at Yue Lao and a sense of superiority was spotted in his eyes.

Yue Lao knew that some things were better left unsaid. His brain was buzzing after the Emperor looked at him that way, even his voice turned weak, “The thing that Emperor had taken from me isn’t meant to be used casually, especially, especially on Phoenix.”

“Yue Lao.” The man turned his head around. Although he kept a smile on his face, his eyes were cold, the air was suddenly filled with murderous reek, “Do you know what would be the fate of a Matchmaking God who lost his Red Strings due to alcoholism?”

Yue Lao could sense the threat in the man’s words and cold sweat broke out from his forehead, “Emperor, not that I want to stand in your way, but this marriage is not like the others. Phoenix is meant to stay in Buddhism, besides, she doesn’t like you, Emperor. It would be pointless for Emperor to tie a Red String on her hand.”

“Pointless?” The man sneered, then he reached out his hand and patted Yue Lao on his shoulder, “It’s up to me to decide whether it’s pointless, you don’t have to worry about it.”

Yue Lao was getting anxious, “Emperor! I guess Emperor isn’t fond of Phoenix as well, Emperor finds her interesting only because she was different from the rest. However, it’s a different story when it comes to others. Emperor should have known about the Bodhi at Mountain Tenya, the Bodhi has responded because of Phoenix. 500 years later, the Bodhi in front of the Buddha’s gate would transform into a Buddha from a human state. He is the only one who is genuine to Phoenix. So, so for the sake of others, I hope Emperor could return the Red String to me!”

Upon listening to the last sentence.

His fingers paused for a moment as a glimmer of light from Tian Dao fell upon him, causing him to appear dark and gloomy.

Yet, it was hard to take one’s eyes off him.

Yue Lao gave the man an eager look.

However, the man responded with a laugh of indescribable elegance and evilness, “I do hope to give it back to you, but unfortunately...” He lifted the empty bag in his hand as he spoke, “It’s too late.”

“Your Highness really did use the Red String on her!” Yue Lao’s heart was pounding crazily, his ears could no longer hear any sound coming from the surroundings.

The man withdrew his hand. Standing with a graceful posture in his purple yarn and white robe, he seemed to be the only scenery in Tian Dao.

“Yue Lao, since we have come to this, if you and I both keep it to ourselves, no one would know where the Red String has been used. I don’t want anyone to know about this, otherwise, this would not be my first time killing a god.”

Yue Lao could only feel the sweat on his back. Not only did the Emperor used the Red String, he even tied it with a dead knot.

What the Emperor said was right.

This thing should not be known by anyone else.

Not just because of his negligence, but what would happen to Phoenix once Buddhism found out?

Yue Lao had matchmade a lot of couples and knew quite a number of gods and fairies. He had always been compassionate with the couples in the world.

Although Phoenix was ranked first among the Buddhas, she was still considered a foreigner in Buddhism.

In most circumstances, humans were never friendly toward those who were different from them.

It would be fine if these two were just having fun, but they definitely should not fall in love with each other.

The reason was that Buddhism would never allow Phoenix, one who was meant to offer salvation to sentient beings, to have any personal feelings.

Thus, the matter about the Red String should never be exposed!

The Emperor was not in a good mood.

The little deities that came forward to greet him could sense his aura once the door was opened.

Though the Emperor did not say a thing and continued to wear a smile on his face, chillness came in between his thin lips.

In particular, the demons and monsters that were locked up by him were surging out from behind him. Lots and lots of black fog were formed, giving others a feeling of oppression from the inside out. It seemed like the Emperor could kill anyone at any time now.

“Emperor.” An immortal greeted with a trembling voice.

The man glanced at him carelessly, “Where’s Phoenix?”
