One of the gods suffered a loss under Long Fei Li’s rule, resulting in him taking his anger out on Western Liang and killing many of its people.

Long Fei Li and Long Wushuang’s original forms were dragons, they were gods who were the most adept in the Water Arts. In order to prevent the deaths of more innocent people, the two men used the Frost and Snow technique to seal Western Liang off.

Except for Fei Tian and the three divine Buddhas, the other Gods and Buddhas, who had limited divine powers, could no longer enter Western Liang. Although the three divine Buddhas were intent on usurping the throne, they were afraid of potentially garnering opposition from the Buddhas who remained neutral and didn’t dare to rashly harm the people.

Prior to this turmoil happening, there had already been a big revolt in the Heavenly Realm. Long Fei Li had just returned to his divine form at the time, and his spiritual power had yet to fully recover. He had been seriously injured during the rebellion after aiding Fei Tian in its suppression. Because his wounds had not recovered, he was temporarily unable to use his divine power to its fullest extent. Although Long Wushuang was the son of a Dragon, he still needed to go through a millennium of cultivation and training before his power could rival that of his father’s.

Therefore, the war between the Gods and Buddhas persisted. The Heavenly Realm was divided into three rivaling factions; Long Fei Li, along with the Xiushu Buddha and the Gods that supported him; the three divine Buddhas and their diverse supporters of Gods and Buddhas; and lastly, the Gods and Buddhas who remained neutral.

As the young master of the Heavenly Realm, Long Wushuang’s duty was to aid his father. Only when Long Fei Li’s injuries fully recover would he restore his divine power, and once Fei Tian successfully completes his tribulations, they could dispel the chaos.

Lin Lang was the adopted daughter of Xiao Qi, the Empress of Heaven. She had always loved her brother Wushuang dearly, but at that time, she had many misunderstandings with him in the Mortal Realm. And later, due to the feud between her family and the Long family, she had been frozen together with Long Wushuang. Long Wushuang had married Duan Xiaotong, his confidante, as his first wife. He treated her very well. Although there were many beautiful Goddesses and Celestial Beings in the Heavenly Realm, Duan Xiaotong remained as his only Empress, both in Western Liang and in the Heavenly Realm.

Lin Lang didn’t want to go to the Heavenly Realm, she would rather be born, get old, become sick, finally die, and fall into the cycle of reincarnation. However, she was forcefully brought under Long Wushuang’s wings. Lin Lang sadly told Xiao Qi that she had set up another place to live in. That way, she didn’t need to stay in the same palace as Xiao Qi and Long Wushuang. When the latter came to know of it, he replied with a sneer.

Xiao Qi told her that Wushuang would visit Qiongjing Palace Hall late at night. The Palace Hall was where Lin Lang had formerly dwelled in. After her birthday, Long Wushuang had sent people to deliver a letter of invitation to her, asking her to meet him in the Yellow Sea (West Sea), saying that he wouldn’t leave until she came. After she thought over it carefully, she decided to go.

Long Wushuang did not come.

Seven days and nights later, Xia Yu, another one of Long Wushuang’s confidants, arrived. She told him coldly that Xiaotong was pregnant.

Lin Lang wandered the Yellow Sea for seven days as the starlight burned out. In the end, Long Wushuang never appeared. She thus left in despair. Upon leaving, an enemy god found her and killed her, leaving her body at the edge of the Yellow Sea.

When she woke up again, she was no longer in Yuncang, but in China’s A District during the year 2013 at Xining Street 18. Xiao Qi was with her.

It turned out that Xiao Qi had noticed that she hadn’t come back for many days. Wushuang was with his partner Duan Xiaotong and Long Fei Li didn’t like Lin Lang. So, she ran out of the Heavenly Realm without telling him and looked for her everywhere. She had finally found her in the Yellow Sea and rescued her.

However, although Xiao Qi was the Empress of Heaven, she had been severely injured. Her spiritual power had been exhausted, so she could only survive between the Heavenly Realm and the Mortal Realm by relying on Long Fei Li’s powers. But Lin Lang was already dead. It was Xiao Qi who forced her soul back into her body before it had completely vanished. With this persistence, Xiao Qi’s meagre spiritual energy was almost entirely depleted.

When taking her back to the Heavenly Realm, they had been, once again, discovered by an enemy god. Xiao Qi had been carrying the Niguang Tablet, which had been left in Western Liang years ago and was brought back to the Heavenly Realm by Long Wushuang. Seeing that she was unable to fight back and the situation was urgent, she activated the Niguang Tablet and took Lin Lang with her to another time and space in China.
