In the extreme east of the world, under the sacred tree fusang, Bai Qiuran stepped on the sea and walked on the waves, and soon came here.
He is Jiang Lan's husband. Although he has no real name, the sea beasts in the sea still know how powerful he is, so when they see him going out to sea, these sea beasts also retreat.
Bai Qiuran walked under the towering Fusang tree, cupped his hands to the top of the tree, and shouted:
"Goddess Xihe, Bai Qiuran asks to see you."
There was no response from the divine fusang tree. After a while, Bai Qiuran added:
"According to my wife Jiang Lan's words, Bai Qiuran came to ask for an interview."
This time, there was finally a response from the Fusang Divine Tree, and a gap in the center of the Divine Tree led him to enter.
Bai Qiuran entered the divine tree, and after a round of climbing, he came to the top of the divine tree, where the branches of the wooden house met.
A beautiful woman in a long red dress turned her back to him and looked at the sea of clouds in the distance. After a while, she turned her head to look at Bai Qiuran and said with a smile:
"Welcome, is it your first time to come to the humble house, the mighty commander who rules the eastern land?"
"That's just a fake name."
Bai Qiuran said to Xihe:
"Bai Qiuran has seen Xihe Goddess."
"Please sit down."
Xi He smiled slightly and invited Bai Qiuran to sit at the table and chair. The table was filled with tea made from some unknown flowers and plants, which was full of fragrance.
After both parties sat down, Xi He looked at Bai Qiuran and said with a smile:
"Lan'er has already informed me about your intentions. There are indeed a group of human races hiding under the divine fusang tree. I can accompany you to take a look later."
"Thank you Xihe Goddess."
Bai Qiuran thanked him.
He didn't urge him either, Xi He looked as if he had something to say to him, and they all came here anyway, and Xi He seemed to be an elder who had a close relationship with Jiang Lan, so Bai Qiuran listened. She speaks.
"I have seen the days of your marriage in the past few years. And I also know the agreement you made with Laner. You are a person who keeps your word. In the past few years, you have not been greedy. Laner's priesthood, and shot at her."
After a while, Xihe really began to joke:
"I heard that Bai Dashuai is very romantic, I must have endured very hard these years, right?"
Bai Qiuran's face was a little embarrassed. Where did he come from, he was clearly an old virgin who was over 3,000 years old.
And thinking about it carefully, he is now considered a person with a wife, but he is still in Yuanyang's body. Whenever he thinks of this matter, even if it is him, he will feel a little sad in his heart.
Bai Qiuran's reaction was taken as the default by Xihe. After a while, she said faintly:
"Men have three wives and four concubines, what they do by nature. The same is true for Di Jun at the beginning. Master Bai doesn't have to feel guilty. On the contrary, I think you are the man who is worthy of Lan'er's life."
"Xi and the goddess are overrated."
Bai Qiuran said ashamed:
"Bai Qiuran is just an ordinary man."
"At least in the few years I've been living with you, Laner has been much happier than in the previous thousands of years."
Xihe interrupted:
"It's been a long time since the child's mother died that she was so happy."
"The goddess's words are serious. Even so, Bai Qiuran is not the one worthy of Jiang... Laner's life."
At this moment, Bai Qiuran thought of Su Xiangxue, Tang Ruowei, everyone from the Qingming Sword Sect, Li Jinyao who ventured into the land of the dead with him, and all kinds of people and things of that era.
He believes that responsibility is more important than temporary love. For Jiang Lan, he can't take up the responsibility of her husband. He is a character of that era after all. He doesn't belong to this era, and he always has to go back.
Being with Jiang Lan now is just an expedient measure due to the situation. If they really get together, does he really want Jiang Lan to wait for him for thousands of years
"If Lan'er really meets the man worthy of her love in the future, Bai Qiuran will also find a way to make it happen."
"no, I can not."
Xihe shook his head and said:
"You don't understand, Lan'er will only have one marriage in her life. That's the temperament she inherited from her mother, so I can only ask you to love her well."
"Why?"
Bai Qiuran asked inexplicably:
"Also, the goddess Xihe seems to be quite familiar with Lan'er's lineage, can you tell me in detail?"
"There's nothing that can't be said. Above this sacred tree of Fusang, the sky and the earth can't see or hear it."
Xihe looked at the sea of clouds surging outside the tree, and said in a daze:
"My husband is called Di Jun. He is a stalwart god who once ruled the world. He has the same personality as you and likes beauty. I also have many sisters, but at least he loves me very much. He also loves the ten children we gave birth to. Because of the children, he became the god of the sun, and before him, the emperor who ruled the world was also a god of the sun, that is Laner's grandfather, we all call him Emperor Yan ."
"So, your husbands, Emperor Jun and Emperor Yan, were both Heavenly Emperors."
Bai Qiuran asked:
"I don't understand, shouldn't Di Jun and Emperor Yan be mortal enemies in this situation?"
"No, the original Heavenly Emperor had a lifespan."
After Xi He paused, he explained:
"The god of heaven has no lifespan, but once he becomes the emperor of heaven, with the passage of time, the power of this god of heaven will grow to its peak, and then it will gradually decline like the sun is declining, and finally die of old age. Therefore, those who do not want to die In the end, the Emperor of Heaven will always choose to give in."
"Have you ever thought of using a certain way to carry out hereditary?"
After asking this sentence, Bai Qiuran felt that his thoughts were a little dark.
"There's no way. To become a Heavenly Emperor requires the approval of Heavenly Dao. Only the strongest Heavenly God of that era is possible."
Xihe replied with a normal expression:
"So my husband's throne was ceded to him by Emperor Yan, and after renunciation, Emperor Yan also became the Emperor Nantian Chi of the Tiangong at that time. So our relationship has always been good. Later, Emperor Yan died after tasting all kinds of herbs, but the priesthood of pharmacology died. Later, it was inherited by Laner's mother and his youngest daughter Nuwa, also known as Jingwei. The myth "Jingwei Reclamation" that was once circulated on the earth actually refers to her mother as a goddess who experienced nine deaths and a lifetime. The matter of gaining authority over the sea."
"Later Donghuang Taiyi rose up and overthrew Emperor Jun's throne with bloody means, and bloodbathed Emperor Yan and Emperor Jun's lineage. Only Lan'er was left in Emperor Yan's line, and only you and your children were left in Emperor Jun's line."
Bai Qiuran said following Xihe's words.
"Actually, it's more than that. Although Chang Xi's children were forced to unite, they still lived as Wang Shu. There was also a fire god Zhu Rong in the Yan Emperor's lineage.
Xihe added.
"So the relationship was good, and since you and Lan'er are from the same world, your relationship with Lan'er is like a mother-daughter relationship. I understand that."
Bai Qiuran asked again:
"But why do you say Laner can only have one marriage in her life?"
"Because of her temperament, Lan'er has inherited her mother's stubbornness, and her mother has inherited Yandi's stubbornness. It's like a curse inherited from the blood."
Xihe smiled bitterly:
"Whether it was Emperor Yan who ate the heartbroken grass and died for the sake of the common people, or her mother Jingwei, who crossed the limit of life and death and obtained the divine right of the sea, it was all this kind of stubbornness. Children of Emperor Yan's lineage only have one partner in their life, and Emperor Yan has only one partner. Yuan Fei listened to the highlanders, and Jingwei only fell in love with the man of the human race, and even died for him under the persecution of Donghuang Taiyi. Laner also inherited this kind of temperament. Maybe she is not in love with you now, but she wants to It is impossible for her to remarry."
"That's why Donghuang Taiyi knew this, so he insisted on forcing her to marry me."
Bai Qiuran was a little annoyed when he heard this.
"Then did I hurt her?"
"Marrying you is her own decision. How terrifying the authority of Canghai is. Donghuang Taiyi always wants to force her to marry. It is better to marry you than to marry other gods."
Xi He persuaded bitterly:
"So, promise me to take good care of her, okay?"
Bai Qiuran thought hesitantly for a long time, and finally heaved a sigh of relief and said:
"Bai Qiuran will do his best."
