Fuxi and Nuwa looked at each other. Yuan Biyao had come to the palace hall all by herself, so something had to have happened.

“Biyao, you won’t have come here without any cause! What’s the matter?”

Yuan Biyao’s face flushed red, and she hemmed and hawed. “I-I want to know about that mortal’s whereabouts!”

Fuxi and Nuwa gave each other a smile.

“Biyao, weren’t you unwilling to leave the Primordial God World with him? Why did you suddenly became concerned about his life and death? That mortal might have already left. I and Nuwa have also not seen him for the past few days,” Fuxi said.

“I fear that the mortal became aware that our Biyao won’t go with him, so he renounced his quest,” Nuwa said.

Her words made Yuan Biyao’s heart go cold. Could he have left because of her?

She shook her head in despair, then knelt down and said, “Many thanks for informing me. Biyao will retire now.”

After she left the palace hall, Fuxi couldn’t help but sigh. “This mortal does have some ability. The ancient secret method, which transformed into Biyao, had always looked down on mortals. I didn’t expect that he would surprisingly be able to move her.”

Nuwa gave a slight smile. “It’s her first encounter with love and she is feeling trapped. Seems like she has also grown up. Who was it that left the command that mortals and gods cannot marry? For me, true love can overcome all boundaries.”

“Let’s see whether themortal has the ability to bring Biyao away with him,” Fuxi said calmly.

Nuwa smiled at him. “The mortal told us to not tell the truth to Biyao. It seems like he is determined to win on his own.”

“Ha ha ha... If Biyao is truly swayed, then I will personally give her away in marriage to that mortal.”

“If that is the case, it’s even better!”

...

Yuan Biyao was moving through the Primordial God World absent-mindedly, as if she had lost her soul. It was possible that she had truly chased the mortal away.

In truth, the mortal also wasn’t that loathsome. He was genuinely concerned about her and not pretending.

Moreover, he always tried his best to make her happy. Although he appeared very foolish, he was completely sincere.

But she didn’t carefully cherish it, and only after losing him did she learn how important he was to her.

“That scoundrel! Why isn’t he returning? If he hasn’t gone, then I would agree to go with him. You don’t need to continue hiding from me, alright?”

Those were her true thoughts, but unfortunately, she could only talk to herself.

In reality, it wasn’t that Fire God Zhurong and River God Gonggong hadn’t seen Li Yunmu, but that he had asked them to not reveal his whereabouts to Biyao.

At that moment, she had completely fallen for his scheme, so it seemed like it was time for him to make his appearance.

He suddenly showed up behind Yuan Biyao without the slightest sign.

She felt her body tighten as if she had been hugged from behind. As she quivered from head to toe, a face appeared in front of her.

“I said, I will return!”

Yuan Biyao struggled to escape while wanting to slap Li Yunmu. But he held her tightly, not giving her the opportunity to get free.

“You!” Yuan Biyao said furiously.

“If I wasn’t in front of you right now, would you still be so fierce? Don’t think that I don’t know that you went to Fuxi and Nuwa to ask about my whereabouts.”

“You are talking nonsense! I didn’t! Who would be concerned about your life or death?”

Yuan Biyao was still reluctant to admit her feelings and chose to leave with a snort.

Li Yunmu sighed. “Hey! Since you still don’t like me, I will leave!”

When she saw him do just as he said he would, Yuan Biyao suddenly transformed into a completely different person and rushed after him.

“Don’t go! You don’t know how I have spent the past few days!”

Li Yunmu slightly smiled. “Were you preoccupied thinking about me?”

“How did you know that?”

This is all just standard method, do you want to know more about it?

he thought. “I am too good! Are you willing to go with me now? Willing to save my people?” he said aloud.

“En, wherever you go, I go! I clearly understand it! What’s more important than rescuing commoners?”

Li Yunmu smiled inwardly. Who’s going to save mortals? Clearly you are going to help yourself. Seems like you have fallen deeply and cannot extricate yourself anymore.

“But I still want to get Empress Nuwa’s approval on this decision. Alright?”Yuan Biyao said while feeling slightly embarrassed.

Li Yunmu smiled. “Naturally, this is what you are supposed to do.”

After that, Yuan Biyao led Li Yunmu to the palace hall. Fuxi and Nuwa looked at each other upon seeing them together.

“Biyao, have you found the mortal you wanted?” Fuxi asked.

Yuan Biyao’s face flushed red and she said in a low voice, “Emperor Fuxi, are you teasing me?”

“Biyao, I and emperor Fuxi have already discussed it and intend to betroth you to this mortal. Are you willing?”

Yuan Biyao was somewhat dumbfounded, and her face turned red like an apple. She couldn’t help but open her eyes wide, looking at Fuxi with an incredulous expression.

“So? Biyao, are you satisfied with this decision?” Fuxi asked with a smile.

Yuan Biyao nodded and said, “Many thanks emperor Fuxi! But doesn’t Primordial God World have a regulation that mortals and gods cannot marry?”

Fuxi smiled again. “This mortal can also be regarded as a half god, I will test his cultivation.”

Upon hearing Fuxi’s words, Yuan Biyao looked at Li Yunmu happily. It was clear that she was absolutely delighted by Fuxi and Nuwa’s decision.

Li Yunmu naturally was even more happy about it. Yuan Biyao was the most beautiful woman in he had seen, and Fuxi and Nuwa had bethroting them. This sensation was truly extraordinary.

[Look at you feeling pleased with yourself! Not only did you marry a beautiful woman, she is also the incarnation of the ancient secret method. Are you feeling complacent?]

“Hey, I am too handsome to do anything about it. This is already my third wife, what should I do now?”

System disdainfully said:

[They are your wives, not mine. But you must take a little care of your body. You should use the medicine I gave you as a reward last time to preserve yourself; otherwise I am afraid that your body won’t last.]

Li Yunmu rolled his eyes. “Too pesky! In any case, Fuxi and Nuwa’s approval was exactly what I was looking for. Moreover, after obtaining the ancient secret method, I can be considered to have finished my assignment, so I will leave the Primordial God World for the time being.”
