What To Do If The Heroine Escapes From The Book

Chapter 262: Worshipping The Heavenly Dao

Yunxiao City is a highly unique place in this world. It hovers high in the clouds, and the entire city is constructed from white clouds. This is not something that cultivators in this world can achieve; it’s natural.

Hmm, it’s all part of the Heavenly Dao’s setting.

This is the legacy of a powerful being from the Heavenly Realm to the mortal world. It plays a role in advancing the Heavenly Realm plot and provides clues to open some important subplots. It’s quite significant, but this is Chu Tiange’s affair and doesn’t have much to do with Qiu Wuji.

Walking among the white clouds, it feels like you’ve arrived in the Heavenly Realm ahead of time. Strolling through the clouds and overlooking the world indeed gives you a feeling of transcending ordinary mortals.

“It’s not surprising that Xie Jiuxiao can comprehend the meaning of the Heavenly Dao in this enviornment. Unfortunately, there’s quite a gap in the understanding, which leads to significant deviations,” Chu Ge strolled among the clouds, hands behind his back, looking down at the mountains and rivers below. The misty clouds and distant mountains and rivers gave him a part of the feeling of a god’s perspective.

“It’s true, it’s much stronger than the feeling of being on an airplane, where the windows are too small!” Qiu Wuji accompanied him.

“Well… it’s different when you’re flying with your sword and you’re used to it.”

“What’s wrong? Feeling better now? Earlier, you were so furious, and now you have the leisure to enjoy the scenery.”josei

“I’m constantly challenged as the boss, facing threats like tearing through the heavens, defying fate, and seizing power. I haven’t even mentioned that all living beings are born to sustain humans, yet there isn’t a single thing from humans in return for the heavens. Honestly, I understand your desire to control destiny, but how many of you can understand my perspective? Always yelling and trying to kill me for no reason. Have I done something wrong?”

Qiu Wuji smiled with narrowed eyes. “Yes, yes, Creator God’s heart enlightens like the moon, but his children are not filial.”

Chu Ge blushed and said, “Qiuqiu is still filial…”

At this moment, both of them seemed to have forgotten that the first person to hold a sword to Creator God’s neck was her.

Qiu Wuji snorted and glanced at him sideways. “So, creator god, how do you expect your daughter to be filial?”

Chu Ge’s eyes flickered.

Qiu Wuji snorted and grabbed his ear. “Here, I am the master. Stop thinking about those disgusting things! Besides, we have our own parents, and you are just some kind of father god!”

“Hey, hey, don’t pull! Xie Jiuxiao and the others are watching! Give me some face….”

“They’re not watching!”

“Qianqian is watching…”

“So, let them watch… never mind.” Qiu Wuji still didn’t feel comfortable fooling around in front of outsiders. She withdrew her hand and put on a serious expression again.

Actually, when it came to “filial piety,” she was indeed filial, unlike the others.

For example, in the real world at this moment, Qiuqiu was taking care of Chu Ge, who looked mentally absent due to split concentration, while eating. In fact, Chu Ge had nothing to do at the moment, and he could focus on eating by himself, but he pretended on purpose, just so Qiu Wuji would feed him. It was an unspoken understanding between them.

“Qiuqiu is still better.” Chu Ge grumbled, “They’re all a bunch of ungrateful wolves.”

Qiu Wuji looked at him sideways for a while and suddenly said, “You would feel hurt because you are too kind.”

“Huh?” Chu Ge was momentarily stunned. “What do you mean?”

Qiu Wuji tilted her head slightly and said in a low voice, “If you were really manipulating and playing with me, and I wanted to kill you, would you feel wronged?”

“…”

“It’s because you treat me kindly that you would feel upset if I wanted to kill you. The same logic applies to them. If you really wanted to use them, their resistance would be expected, and you naturally wouldn’t have any reason to feel sorry.”

“… this sounds like you’re encouraging me to do bad things.”

“It’s not that. What I mean is that your intentions are not known to others, and everyone considers things from the perspective of their own fate. People’s perspectives are different, leading to misunderstandings and conflicts. You can consider being open and sincere, and make the dependents truly listen to the divine will. Only then will this world be at your fingertips, and it will be a world you truly control.”

Chu Ge was lost in thought for a while. Making all beings truly submit and bow down, thereby gaining control… from this perspective, it did make sense, and he had never thought about it before.

He’s just writing a story, and all he wants to do is finish it properly. Who would think about going into the story to conquer people’s hearts?

He thought for a long time and his expression became a bit strange. “I can’t do the first one.”

Qiu Wuji was puzzled. “Huh? What’s the first one?”

“It’s you. Come on, Master Qiu, listen to my decree and give me a kiss…”

Qiu Wuji kicked him into the air, and Chu Ge screamed as he flew out of the cloud layer.

In the distance on a pavilion, Xie Yun’er looked towards the vague figures in the distance and asked her father softly, “Dad, when you said the honored guest ‘Heaven,’ were you referring to Sect Master Qiu Wuji?”

Xie Jiuxiao looked at the commotion over there with some speechlessness and muttered to himself, “I should have guessed it earlier; water follows the flow of clouds, damn it, we want to reach the heaven and we can’t, but she’s riding on it…”

Xie Yun’er blinked her eyes, not quite understanding.

She curiously watched Chu Ge, who looked a bit disheveled as he flew back from the outer reaches of the sky, and whispered, “Is that the rumored direct disciple of Sect Master Qiu? He doesn’t look too young.”

Xie Jiuxiao sneered, “No. Our family will not form a marriage alliance with the Cloud Horizon Sect, no matter how suitable the match is!”

Xie Yun’er: “?”

I never anything about alliance!

“Dad, what are you thinking? Why do you seem strange today?”

“Well… oh, it’s nothing. Yun’er, our Yunxiao City is a legacy from the heavenly realm. It’s said to be the heritage of the Heavenly Emperor’s Dao lineage, although it cannot be confirmed. We have been offering sacrifices for thousands of years… I’ve been thinking for a long time, what if it’s not the Heavenly Emperor’s heritage, and we’ve been paying respects to the wrong person? Wouldn’t that be embarrassing?”

“…It doesn’t matter. After all, the Heavenly Emperor deserves respect, right? We’ve been doing it for so many years, and we’ve gotten used to it… When we truly ascend, the Heavenly Emperor should also know that we’ve respected him for so many years, and he’ll be kind to us, right?”

“What about the Heavenly Dao? Regardless of whose heritage it is, it’s under the Heavenly Dao, so we cannot pay respects to the wrong one.”

“Um…”

Xie Jiuxiao earnestly told his daughter, “Let’s just do it like this. If we pay respects in the future, we’ll only pay respects to the Heavenly Dao. You can be responsible for changing the plaques and carvings on the altar. Don’t remove the ones for the Heavenly Emperor, just place them to the side of the Heavenly Dao. If the Heavenly Emperor knows, he won’t take offense.”

“Oh…” Xie Yun’er didn’t see any difference in this, it was all about kneeling before a plaque and performing a ritual, and no one ever saw any blessings or miracles, it was just a ceremony.

The girl was naive and didn’t realize that in the world where the Heavenly Dao truly existed, it wasn’t just a simple ceremonial issue. This was actually a matter of subordination, just as she had originally thought; once they ascended, even if it wasn’t the Heavenly Emperor’s lineage, the Heavenly Emperor would still be somewhat close, treating them as his subjects. After the change, it would naturally be a direct lineage of the Heavenly Dao.

A very direct manifestation of this was that if Yunxiao City worshipped the Heavenly Dao, and someone spoke ill of the Heavenly Dao in front of them, they would naturally feel insulted and provoked, leading to anger and conflict.

This meant that a group of important forces in this world had begun to recognize the rule and dignity of the Heavenly Way. Before this, no one had.

Chu Ge sat on the clouds and enjoyed the scenery with Qiu Wuji. Suddenly, he felt like he had gained some power.

A power that was inexplicable… it wasn’t a direct improvement in his cultivation, but a kind of control.

The rising and setting of the sun in this world seemed to be under his passive influence, beginning to show signs of responsiveness, although very weak. Still, he could feel it.

“Qiuqiu…,” Chu Ge hesitated, “It seems like you’re right…”

Qiu Wuji didn’t know what had happened but could guess the general idea. She also sensed that something had changed. She calmly said, “Of course, as long as your mind isn’t filled with filthy thoughts, this was quite easy to guess.”

“And you…”

“Me? Have I become the biggest troublemaker in Creator God’s eyes?” Qiu Wuji sighed and said helplessly, “But in fact, I am the creator god’s personal assistant, the biggest lackey…”

Chu Ge blinked.

Qiu Wuji motioned towards the distance. “Look, don’t say your assistant didn’t remind you of a good thing… Yan Qianli has been sitting there for a long time, gazing at the sea of clouds. Do you think he’s a melancholic literary type? There must be a reason.”

Chu Ge turned to look, and he was also taken aback by Yan Qianli’s unusual melancholic state.

What’s going on today?
