Rebirth of the Strongest Empress Chapter 2757: Tian (6)

Outside the Demon Cloud Sect, the Devil Cloud Sect Paragon gawked at Ye Qingtang in disbelief.

"Oh, so you have knowledge of Tian," Ye Qingtang stated with a smile.

The Devil Cloud Sect Paragon nodded. "I encountered an ancient record..."

"Are you prepared to accompany me to the upper realm?" Ye Qingtang inquired.

"You... will bring me to the upper realm?" The Devil Cloud Sect Paragon's eyes widened in shock. "I... I am willing!"

.....

Within the Divine Venerate Domain, at the Great Immortal Temple.

"We pay homage to you, Tian!"

The Nine Heavens Saint, Feng Wuyin, Feng Jiuyou, and the others all dropped to their knees.

Ye Qingtang was momentarily speechless.

The inhabitants of the Great Immortal Temple understood that she had become Tian, but this drastic shift in their demeanor was incredibly abrupt. Their fervent expressions... were they perhaps anticipating their own ascension to Perfected Immortal status?

"Holy Lady!!! It's me, it's me, ahhh!!" The Blood Moon Elder gazed at Ye Qingtang, his eyes blazing with intensity.

"Little girl, why have you only arrived now? Are you abandoning me? I'm eagerly awaiting our return to the upper realm!" The large yellow dog wagged its tail vigorously while fixing its gaze on Ye Qingtang.

"I am here now, am I not?" Ye Qingtang replied, glancing at the canine.

"By the authority of Tian, I hereby bestow upon each of you Perfected Immortal bodies. Accompany me to the upper realm and aid in its reconstruction," Ye Qingtang proclaimed.

With a wave of her hand, all those from the Great Immortal Temple vanished.

Moments later, Ye Qingtang's eyes began to radiate heavenly might.

A woman and a man, bearing a resemblance to Ye Qingtang, materialized from the void.

"Jiuyuan?!"

The man regarded Di Jiuyuan with an expression of utter astonishment.

"I... I am not dead?" Di Jiuyuan echoed, equally disbelieving.

"Father, Mother, I shall bestow upon you both Perfected Immortal bodies so you may accompany me to the upper realm." Ye Qingtang gestured, and the two also disappeared.

Ling Yan observed Ye Qingtang, his brow furrowed in deep contemplation. "There are still insufficient numbers. More individuals are required to rebuild the upper realm."

"Indeed, it should not be solely humans," Ye Qingtang responded with a smile. "Within my Deity Ocean reside demons and members of other races. It will be a simple matter to release them then."

...

Many years subsequently.

The Heavenly Palace in the Upper Realm.

"Tian, I shall personally assist you in preparing for your wedding today," Di Jiuyuan said with a smile, sitting beside Ye Qingtang.

Ye Qingtang found herself at a loss for words.

"Mother, please, just call me by my name," Ye Qingtang sighed.

"How can that be? My daughter is Tian now, the great Tian. How could I possibly address you by any other title?" Di Jiuyuan questioned, a slight frown on her face.

"Tian, your mother speaks the truth," the Evil Deity chimed in.

"Ye Qingtang intervened, "Grandfather, please do not encourage her."

"Your mother and grandfather are correct," Di Feng added.

"Father..."

Ye Qingtang was rendered speechless. She was unsure what peculiar elixir Ling Yan had administered to her parents, but they had persistently urged her towards this marriage...

"Tian is to be wed today. Congratulations are in order. May Tian soon provide us with a grandchild," Ye Ling announced as he entered the palace.

Ye Qingtang sighed again. Yet another father.

The large yellow dog squatted to the side, its tail wagging. "Ye Qingtang, should you ever grow weary of this position, simply relinquish it to me. My experience far surpasses yours."

Di Jiuyuan and the others shot indignant glares at the yellow dog.

"How dare you!" Ye Ling exclaimed.

"How dare *you*!" the yellow dog retorted with a sneer. "I am the second Tian, and your Tian is my junior!"

"Hmph, the second Tian? You were stripped of your position. If I were you, I'd be too ashamed to even mention it," the little white tiger remarked, casting a disdainful glance at the large yellow dog.

The large yellow dog was utterly silenced.

"We shouldn't speak so dismissively. After all, the big yellow dog is the second Tian. It possesses a certain dignity," the little azure dragon offered with a smile.

The little white tiger turned its gaze to the little azure dragon. "Why are you here? Shouldn't you be accompanying Ling Yan?"

"No, I am with Tian," the little azure dragon declared, directing a sycophantic smile toward Ye Qingtang.

Resting on Ye Qingtang's shoulder, the little lightning dragon observed the little azure dragon with curiosity.

"Tian is getting married!"

.....

The Heavenly Palace was thronged with attendees. Tian, resplendent in a crimson wedding gown, exchanged vows with Ling Yan.

Late into the night, the revelers finally departed, leaving only Ye Qingtang and Ling Yan within the Heavenly Palace.

Their eyes met, and they pulled each other into a passionate embrace.

Laughter filled the vast expanse of the Heavenly Palace.

The End.
