As Ming Li departed, the gods hurried towards the Ling Xiao Bao Dian. Just outside its gates, they witnessed the magnificent palace collapse halfway with a resounding "Boom——".
The gods: "......" Hoping their Heavenly Emperor was safe! Amen!
Wait! Aren't they supposed to be concerned about His Majesty the Heavenly Emperor right now?!
With that thought, a group of deities rushed into the Ling Xiao Bao Dian, "Your Majesty the Heavenly Emperor? Your Majesty the Heavenly Emperor! Are you alright?"
The Heavenly Emperor, having just changed his clothes, returned to find a group of deities sifting through the ruins. He frowned, walked over, patted Lao Jun's shoulder, and asked curiously, "What are you doing?!"
Lao Jun threw off the Heavenly Emperor's hand and said with a mournful voice, "Don't disturb Lao Jun! Lao Jun is looking for His Majesty the Heavenly Emperor! My Emperor! Where are you?"
Upon hearing this, the Heavenly Emperor's face darkened. With a blank expression, he picked up the old man before him, spun him around in the air, and faced him, saying, "Look properly, who am I!"
"Hmm?" Lao Jun frowned as he looked at the familiar face before him, and the next second, he exclaimed, "Your Majesty the Heavenly Emperor!"
The Heavenly Emperor placed Lao Jun on the ground and nodded proudly, "It is indeed this Heavenly Emperor!"
Lao Jun's next sentence made the Heavenly Emperor break down, "You're not dead yet!"
The Heavenly Emperor's mouth twitched severely, and he said expressionlessly, "...Do you really wish for this Heavenly Emperor to die?"
"Cough, cough, cough!" Sensing a hint of killing intent, Lao Jun quickly waved his hands and said, "No, no! Your Majesty the Heavenly Emperor! I didn't mean that!"
Heh heh!
"Then what did you mean..."
Lao Jun's eyes flickered, and he suddenly pointed at the sky, saying, "Hahaha! The weather is really nice today!"
Heavenly Emperor: "......"

Meanwhile, as Ming Li left the Nine Heavens, a faint voice called out to her, "Senior Sister... is that you?"
Hearing the voice, Ming Li raised an eyebrow, turned around, and looked at the black-robed man before her. Her first words were a critical blow, "Did you take hormones? How did you grow so fast?"
Demon Lord: "......" Although he didn't know what hormones were, he felt it wasn't something good.
"Why."
Ming Li: "What do you want to ask?"
"Senior Sister, why was it on her rooftop?"
"Heh," Ming Li chuckled lightly and looked at the man calmly, "What? Want to avenge her?"
"Senior Sister! I didn't mean that!" The Demon Lord quickly explained, thinking Ming Li had misunderstood.
"If you wanted to kill her, why didn't you tell me? I could have helped you, I... I don't want you to dirty your own hands."
Hearing this, Ming Li frowned and pulled out the system. "Doesn't this guy's favorability towards the female lead already reach 90%? Now that he knows the female lead was killed by me, why does he have this expression?"
The system glanced at the system display screen and after a while, realized, "I know! Host, the one with 90% favorability towards the female lead is Ling Qianji, and the one standing before you now is the Demon Lord.
That time, Ling Qianji thought you were struck to death by heavenly lightning, and in her excitement, she brought out the Demon Lord. As for Ling Qianji... she has already disappeared from this world."
