Chapter 258 The New 'Flower God'
Amid the hustle and bustle of the banquet, Lord Xingzhi seemed so engrossed in his conversation with Lian Huishi that even the Emperor of Heaven's gentle call failed to attract his attention.
Upon seeing this, the Emperor of Heaven curled up a faint smile, and felt more understanding and tolerance for this highly respected God of Behavior.
The Emperor raised his voice again, and said in a tone that was both dignified and slightly friendly:
"Lord Xingzhi, I have something to discuss with you. Could you please move aside for a moment?"
Upon hearing this, Xingzhi Shenjun quickly withdrew from his conversation with Lian Huishi and turned to the Emperor of Heaven. A hint of apology flashed in his eyes, and then he responded respectfully:
"Your Majesty, I am being rude. Please tell me what important matter you need to discuss with me?"
The Emperor smiled and waved his hand, indicating that there was no need for further formalities, and then got down to business:
"Regarding this martial arts conference, I am very pleased to see so many talented people from all realms. It is a blessing for the six realms. I would like to ask you, Lord God, do you have any special rewards for the champion of this conference? Please let me know so that I can make preparations."
The God of Actions nodded slightly, his tone revealing an unquestionable authority:
"Your Majesty, regarding the reward, Xingzhi has indeed considered it, but it mainly depends on your opinion. The honor of being the champion is extraordinary, and Xingzhi intends to grant him a high position in the heavenly realm and promote him exceptionally to show his martial arts attainments and outstanding contributions. As for the specific official rank, Xingzhi needs to further consider it to ensure that it can both show the magnitude of the reward and match the talent and virtue of the champion."
Upon hearing this, the Emperor's eyes flashed with approval. He was well aware of the status and strength of the God of Action and Control, so he was naturally confident in his decision:
"Ahahaha, it has to be you! Your Majesty has considered everything, and I am very pleased. I will leave this matter to Your Majesty, and I believe that Your Majesty will be able to make the most appropriate arrangement."
Afterwards, the Emperor of Heaven's gaze inadvertently swept over Lian Huishi, and he thought to himself that this woman must be extraordinary to be able to make the God of Xingzhi talk to her so wholeheartedly.
However, he did not say much, just smiled and nodded, continuing to enjoy the joy and harmony brought by the banquet.
As the atmosphere of the banquet gradually came to an end, the guests' laughter and joy were mixed with a hint of reluctance.
Lord Xingzhi stood up, and his voice echoed in the banquet hall, with unquestionable majesty and tenderness:
"Everyone, today's banquet is not only to celebrate the peace between the two worlds, but also to honor those outstanding people who have made contributions to the six worlds."
Having said that, the gaze of the God of Action and Determination fell gently on Lian Huishi, and the attention of the entire audience was focused on her.
He slowly announced:
"After careful consideration, I have decided to make an exception and promote Lian Huishi to be the new 'Flower Goddess', responsible for the management of flowers and plants in the six realms. She showcases the beauty of nature with her dance and protects the lives of all things with her heart. She is truly the best candidate for this position."
As soon as these words came out, there was a burst of exclamations and congratulations in the banquet hall. Lian Huishi even covered her mouth in surprise, with a light of disbelief flashing in her eyes.
She had never thought that she would receive such an honor and become the deity in charge of flowers and plants in the six realms.
The God of Action continued:
"In addition, I will grant Lian Huishi the West Garden as her residence. It is one of my courtyards with beautiful scenery and the fragrance of flowers. It will surely allow her to better perform her duties as the goddess of flowers. It will also serve as a recognition and reward for her talent and efforts."
The guests all looked at her with envy and blessings. Lian Huishi was so moved that tears welled up in her eyes. She bowed deeply to the God of Travel and expressed her gratitude:
"Thank you for your kindness, Lord God. Huishi will live up to your expectations and do her best to fulfill her duties as the God of Flowers, bringing more beauty and vitality to the six realms."
The banquet reached its climax at this moment, with the guests' applause and cheers intertwined, sending the most sincere blessings to Lian Huishi's new identity and future.
Fu Rongjun sat next to Shen Xing, talking about the fairies in heaven from time to time. Shen Xing responded perfunctorily with little interest.
Shen Li had already brought Mo Xiang to ask for instructions from the Spirit Master and returned to the barracks first. "Spirit Clan, I'm afraid that the soldiers in the barracks have been slacking off during the time I've been out for the competition, so I'm leaving first."
The spiritual master agreed.
In the warm and lively atmosphere as the banquet was coming to an end, the God of Action and Determination suddenly stood up and his eyes fell gently on Lian Huishi.
His decision was both abrupt and full of unquestionable majesty. He whispered to Lian Huishi:
"Hui Shi, follow me."
After saying that, he waved his sleeves lightly, and a faint light appeared around the two of them. Then, like two streams of light, they both flew away from the banquet and headed straight for the heaven in the astonished gazes of everyone.
This scene happened so suddenly that the guests at the banquet were stunned for a moment, followed by a burst of discussions.
Some people marveled at the extraordinary flying skills of the God of Xingzhi, while more people were wondering who this Lian Huishi was that made the God so fond of her.
"Lord Xingzhi is truly unique. It is unprecedented for him to leave with a woman in such a high-profile manner." An elderly immortal stroked his beard, with curiosity glittering in his eyes.
"Yes, I heard that Lian Huishi is the new goddess of flowers, but her origins are mysterious and unpredictable." Another fairy echoed softly, her eyes full of curiosity and envy towards Lian Huishi.
Upon seeing this, the Emperor of Heaven couldn't help but frown slightly, and a hint of doubt flashed in his eyes.
He knew very well that Lord Xingzhi was a calm and reserved person who would never easily reveal his emotions, let alone leave with a woman so blatantly.
This made him very interested in Lian Huishi's identity and background, so he turned to Ling Zun, with a tone of inquiry and expectation:
"Spiritual Lord, who exactly is Lian Huishi, and why has she won the favor of Lord Xingzhi in such a short period of time? I have seen countless people in the six realms, but I know very little about her."
Upon hearing this, Ling Zun sighed and told what he knew:
"Your Majesty, to be honest, I have been in charge of the spirit world for many years, and I have only recently heard of Lian Huishi. She seems to have suddenly emerged at the martial arts conference, and her background is like a mist, elusive. There are rumors that she was transformed from dew, which is a bit mysterious. What's even more peculiar is that there seems to be some kind of indissoluble bond between her and Shen Xing, but I have no way of knowing the details."
Upon hearing this, the Emperor of Heaven turned his gaze to Shen Xing, hoping to get more clues from him.
Shen Xing felt the Emperor's gaze, stood up, and replied respectfully:
"Your Majesty, regarding Lian Huishi, I did have some interactions with her. But it was by chance that I saved her friend Luqi and got to know her.
However, I didn't know her very well. It wasn't until this martial arts conference that we met for the first time. Her talent and charm are indeed hard to ignore, but I am also confused about her identity and origins. "
After hearing this, the Emperor of Heaven was silent for a moment, as if he was thinking about something.
He knew very well that there were many hidden talents in the six realms, and many masters and hermits were unwilling to reveal their identities and whereabouts.
Perhaps, Lian Huishi is such a mysterious existence. He nodded gently and said to Shen Xing and Ling Zun:
"In that case, we don't need to dwell too much on her background. What's important is whether she can be competent as the Flower God and bring welfare to the six realms. I believe that the God of Action has his own considerations and arrangements."
After saying this, the Emperor's brows gradually relaxed, and the banquet slowly came to an end amid harmony and blessings.
However, Lian Huishi's identity and origins are like a seed, quietly taking root and sprouting in everyone's hearts, waiting to bloom with brighter light one day in the future.
