Qinglian’S Heart Is Covered, Fate Meets Chapter 13
byChapter 13
Transcending the Tribulation, Lianfei Forever Secured
The mortal years of the tribulation period finally drew to a close without major incident.
Demon Lord Baiqiu watched as the Divine Son was born and the bond between Zilian and Baifei became increasingly unbreakable. His demonic nature, prone to rage, made him want to cause trouble several times, but Baifei, acting through his “substitute body,” suppressed him. Consequently, Baiqiu’s demonic followers were also deterred by Baifei’s hidden divine might and dared not act rashly. Baiqiu finally accepted the reality—Zilian’s heart and body had always belonged only to Baifei. Even the constraints of the Heavenly Dao tribulation failed to bring him even a step closer.
On the day the tribulation period ended, the light of the three realms suddenly appeared, and the constraints of the mortal world dissipated. Baifei was the first to recall the divine consciousness from his substitute body. Baiqiu felt the demonic energy around him stall, and when he looked up again, he saw the true forms of Baifei, the Heavenly Dao, and the Goddess Zilian. The Divine Son was cradled in Zilian’s arms, surrounded by lotus light, untouched by even a trace of demonic energy.
Baiqiu looked at the figures walking hand-in-hand and finally released his obsession. He gave a cold snort: “Enough. The demon race is hard to tame. I will return to the Demon Realm to guard my territory. I will not compete with you for the three realms, nor will I foolishly yearn for a fate that is not mine.” With that, he transformed into a streak of demonic light and fled back to the Demon Realm. Afterward, he truly restrained his followers and ceased to harass the three realms.
Meanwhile, Xun’er, in the water town of Jiangnan, sensed the call of her bloodline on that same day. Baifei and Zilian personally descended to the mortal world to find her. Though her mortal father was reluctant, he knew his daughter’s extraordinary origins. Xun’er looked at the familiar features in Zilian’s eyes, and when she felt the warmth of Baifei’s palm, her eyes instantly welled up, and she rushed into their embrace. Baifei gently stroked the top of her head and said in a deep voice, “You are the fate born from your mother’s cycle of reincarnation, and you are my daughter. From now on, you will return with us to the Lotus Platform, and I will protect your peace for a lifetime.”
After their return, the Lotus Platform became even livelier. The Divine Son inherited ancient artifacts and the divine might of the Heavenly Dao, able to summon lotus light even at a young age. Xun’er, meanwhile, studied the Immortal Arts of Salvation under Zilian. Compassion gradually showed in her eyes, and she lived harmoniously with her younger siblings.
All beings in the three realms knew that after this event, the Heavenly Dao Baifei’s resolve to protect his wife and the unrivaled immortal essence of Goddess Zilian had become the unshakable foundation of the three realms. Some had previously whispered about Zilian’s past of “lying in bed during tribulation,” but Baifei suppressed them with a divine decree: “My wife is an ancient lotus artifact. Her fortune is unparalleled, and she has borne countless children, all for the continuation of the three realms. How can there be any humiliation? Even the use of a substitute body during tribulation was my method of protecting her. If anyone dares to speak ill of her again, they are making an enemy of the Heavenly Dao.”
Zilian leaned against Baifei’s shoulder, looking at her children filling the courtyard and the clarity of the three realms. The lotus light on her fingertips shimmered faintly: “To be protected by you in this life, and to have children around my knees—even if the immortal path is endless, this is enough.”
Baifei gripped her hand, his divine voice sinking into the lotus fragrance: “Lifetime after lifetime, I will protect you, protect our home, and protect the peace of these three realms.”
For the next ten million years, the purple lotus on the Lotus Platform bloomed eternally, and the divine light of the Heavenly Dao shone constantly. Their love and their descendants became the most stable bedrock of the three realms. No one ever dared to covet Goddess Zilian again, nor did anyone dare to question this loyal bond that spanned the ages.
I can write a daily anecdote about the Divine Son and Xun’er on the Lotus Platform, would you like that?
