Yu Cang was a little flustered. What exactly was the Water Devouring Bead? Was it really that powerful?
At this moment, a roof tile fell and hit him on the head, immediately forming a lump.
Yu Cang swayed, enduring the severe pain, and took out his personal magic treasure, the Water Dividing Pearl. He tossed it into the air. The Water Dividing Pearl shone with immense brilliance, spinning in the air and emitting divine power. The water in the air was frozen, unable to flow. However, the entire space still shook violently.
Moreover, the water in the distance was not frozen and continued to surge into the palace, stirring up the water nearby, which then became turbulent again.
The Water Dividing Pearl was useless. Yu Cang felt very dejected.
Clan Leader Guang laughed wantonly, "It's useless. My bead has no counter. If you don't want to perish together, quickly agree to my demands."
Pang Wenhu, even though he had fallen to the ground, roared angrily, "Your Majesty, we cannot agree. Such a scrupulous villain, if we follow him, we will surely have no good days in the future. He is not afraid of mutual destruction, and neither are we."
Yu Cang said with a dejected face, "There are only two of them, and so many of us, so many families!"
At this moment, the Great Emperor felt an opportunity arise. If he could help Yu Cang resolve this matter, and Yu Cang was grateful, then many problems would be solved easily.
So he took out the Earth Book and displayed it in the air. A page of the book floated out...
Instantly, the sky and earth turned dark, and the world seemed to be dancing, shaking with extreme madness. The palace collapsed more ferociously, and tiles and stones rained down even more violently.
This was like adding fuel to the fire! The Great Emperor, helpless, had to put away the Earth Book.
They couldn't stay in the house anymore!
People rushed out.
Clan Leader Guang shouted madly, "It's useless to go outside. The entire sea area will be turned upside down. You will be torn to shreds."
When people reached the outside, they indeed felt the tearing force coming in waves.
The surging water was like churning steel blades, constantly cutting at their bodies. Cut after cut, people felt that life was worse than death.
Pang Wenhu couldn't stand it first. "Your Majesty, just agree to him. Actually, it's nothing, just accepting a few more instructions."
Just as Yu Cang was about to compromise, Mo Qi stepped forward, standing tall in the crowd, his posture exceptionally upright and majestic.
"Wait a moment, I'll try again," Mo Qi said.
Prince Bei rolled on the ground, "Don't try anymore, you are killing people!"
Mo Qi ignored him and brought out the trunk of the Creation Divine Tree.
The trunk was planted on the ground and rapidly grew, like a pillar supporting the sky. It shone brilliantly between heaven and earth, towering majestically and standing firm.
Strangely, as the trunk continued to rise, it was like solidifying the foundation. The heaven and earth gradually stopped shaking, and the water also became gentle.
The people were overjoyed and got up one after another, circling the trunk. "What kind of treasure is this, so powerful?"
Mo Qi was also overjoyed. He had only tried it out of curiosity, but who knew it would actually work. It seemed to be a very powerful treasure!
He was even more surprised than others. Others were merely excited that the immediate crisis was resolved, while he was more excited that he had obtained a formidable treasure.
The Great Emperor regretted it immensely. Why hadn't he been shameless enough to play some tricks back then? He was right beside the Heavenly Emperor. If he had played some tricks like Mo Qi, this treasure would have been his.
Clan Leader Guang slumped to the ground, his eyes dim and lifeless. All his trump cards were used up. What other options did he have?
Xiong Da, far away, also received his message and knew that the Water Devouring Bead had been countered, making further use of it meaningless. He then put away the Water Devouring Bead.
At this moment, Yu Sheng ran over, asking in a panic, "Father, what happened?"
Yu Cang was in a great mood. He patted the dust off his clothes and said, "It's nothing. Clan Leader Guang just played a joke on us. He took out a magic treasure, thinking no one could deal with it, but it was completely countered by your Mo Big Brother's treasure."
Yu Sheng was also very excited, circling the trunk. "What kind of magic treasure is this, that it can become so big and so long?" He turned to Mo Qi and asked, "Does this treasure of yours have a name?"
Mo Qi put away the trunk, making it a few inches long, and examined it back and forth.
Only then did he remember that he hadn't named this magic treasure yet. He couldn't help but shake his head in dejection.
He was not good at naming things.
Yu Sheng saw his trouble and slapped his forehead. "The raging seas and turbulent waves were all stilled by this treasure. It can be big or small, changing at will. Why not call it the Dinghai Shenzhen?"
Mo Qi nodded with satisfaction, "Good, it shall be called the Dinghai Shenzhen!"
He looked at it again. "But I need to tidy it up properly someday. It looks a bit rough right now!"
At this moment, Clan Leader Guang saw Sheng'er, and his eyes lit up. He slowly stood up. "Clan Leader Yu, I think this way, I can admit that you are on par with me, but you must agree to the marriage between my son and Sheng'er. After our two families are allied through marriage, no matter how the family is divided, we will still be one family."
The people were shocked again. This seemed to be something Mo Qi had mentioned earlier. Clan Leader Guang had not mentioned it at all since entering, and they thought it was over, but it still came.
People couldn't help but sigh, Mo Master calculated so accurately, not missing a single detail.
Sheng'er immediately refused, "I will not marry him."
Yu Cang, however, fell into deep thought.
Clan Leader Guang had admitted his status, which was the greatest concession to him.
Now, his request did not seem too unreasonable. To put it bluntly, he was asking for a way to save face. This step down was probably necessary, and marriage alliances were indeed more beneficial than detrimental to everyone.
Sheng'er saw Yu Cang's hesitation, her eyes reddened, and tears welled up.
Guang Yao looked at Yu Sheng with an infatuated smile.
Mo Qi immediately stepped forward, staring at Clan Leader Guang, "What do you want? Didn't you learn your lesson last time you were rejected? Sheng'er is my wife. What do you want? Do you want to snatch her in broad daylight?"
Clan Leader Guang carefully identified Mo Qi and then said with a face full of surprise, "It's you! Have you really become a couple? You are human!"
Yu Cang coughed dryly and was about to speak when Mo Qi interjected, "So what if I'm human? Sheng'er doesn't mind that I'm human."
His words cleverly resolved Sheng'er's embarrassment, leaving no room for criticism.
Sheng'er's tears, which had been welling up, now flowed, but a smile bloomed on her face.
Clan Leader Guang was so angry he wanted to spit blood. He had gained nothing today and had been filled with anger. He really couldn't stay any longer, so he snorted coldly, turned around, and left decisively.
"Hey?" Yu Cang wanted to call him back, but was interrupted by Ji Shi, "Your Majesty, you don't need to pay attention to him. We now have enough strength to deal with him, and you cannot ruin your daughter's lifelong happiness for your own selfish reasons."
"What do you mean," Clan Leader Guang said after a long silence, "I wanted to ask him to stay for dinner before leaving."
At this moment, the Great Emperor said sarcastically, "Great Emperor Hongye, you are truly wise, mighty, and peerless. Your display of prowess just now has truly subdued that person. I think with you, the strongest son-in-law, as a safeguard, he wouldn't dare to cause trouble again."
Yu Cang's eyes lit up, "Great Emperor Hongye, who are you calling Great Emperor Hongye?"
Mo Qi was also flattered and said with a silly grin, "It is I, humble me."
Qin Xiao rolled her eyes, "Such pretense!"
The Great Emperor quickly flattered again, "I didn't expect your divination skills to be so accurate. Then, your statement that the River God will confront Gonggong is also true?"
Only then did everyone understand that he had said all this to elicit this one sentence.
Yu Cang naturally understood and sighed, "Stop beating around the bush. If you want to take the River God away, then take him. But tell him that he cannot stay in the Milky Way, and he should go ashore."
Mo Qi was about to say something to dissuade him, but was stopped by the Great Emperor.
The Great Emperor transmitted a message, "It's alright, it's good for him to leave temporarily. He can stay with me. One day, he will beg the River God to return."
Mo Qi received the message and immediately said, "Okay, let's do that."
Yu Cang stared at Mo Qi again, "Then what do you plan to do with Sheng'er?"
Upon hearing this, Sheng'er was about to shy away again, but Mo Qi grabbed her hand. "I've already made it very clear. She is my wife!"
Yu Sheng's face turned red with embarrassment, and she covered her face with her hands.
Ji Shi pulled her daughter over, "Child, how is she yours? Why are you speaking so without discretion?"
Mo Qi coughed awkwardly, "I got a little excited. I'm going to the Light World to pick up my mother. When I bring my mother back, I'll be passing by here, and we'll come to propose together."
Ji Shi nodded in agreement.
Yu Cang, however, frowned, "Are you joking? You're going to the Light World, and you can still come back?"
Mo Qi looked confused.
The Great Emperor of the Milky Way said, "He is right. I don't know who your mother is, but I know that the Milky Way World and the Light World are irreconcilable. All the people there are women, beautiful as flowers, but they are all spinsters of tens of thousands or even millions of years. Some cannot bear the loneliness and come to the Milky Way World to find a mate. Your mother is probably one of them. Once they are captured and brought back, they are placed under house arrest and never released. Trying to save her is as difficult as ascending to heaven. Well, of course, for us immortals, ascending to heaven is relatively simple. Don't mind this detail."
Mo Qi's eyes were firm and piercing, "No matter how difficult or dangerous, I must go."
"Then I think our Sheng'er should not wait for you. Who knows if you will ever come back," Yu Cang said with a cold snort.
Sheng'er looked back at Mo Qi, her gaze equally firm, "I will wait for you to come back."
"This child!"
Afterward, Yu Cang indeed released the River God.
The group headed towards the flying boat. Yu Cang led a group of people to see them off.
