Crossing the Gods as Slaves

Chapter 371 Zhuji Mountain (2)

Ning Hua's mother, the Ninth Princess of the East China Sea, was seriously ill and weak, but it was because of her heart disease that she couldn't recover for a long time. After Ning Hua came back, she relaxed and no longer had any worries. Her illness immediately improved. Within a few days, her complexion became rosy and she no longer breathed heavily when walking.

While Ning Hua felt relieved about the Ninth Princess, he also felt even more guilty towards God Ning Chen.

The High God Ning Chen went into seclusion to cultivate on the night Ning Hua returned. After Ning Hua finished serving her mother, she would kneel outside the mountain gate where the Father God was cultivating, confessing her sins to the stone lions and telling them about her unfilial behavior...

One day, after Ning Hua served the medicine to her mother, the Ninth Princess brought up a topic to her.

She said, "Hua'er, do you know that after you experienced several lifetimes of love tribulations, Crown Prince Zi Jiang changed his mind and proposed marriage to your Father God?"

Ning Hua nodded gloomily: "Zi Jiang said..."

The Ninth Princess smiled with relief: "Didn't you beg and plead to marry him before but couldn't get it? Now that your long-cherished wish has finally come true, aren't you happy?"

Ning Hua lowered her head and suddenly remembered Lu Xiu's roar when she left.

The Ninth Princess thought Ning Hua was just shy, and smiled, pursing her lips. "During your absence, your father and I were very worried. When Zi Jiang came to propose marriage, we thought that if we could fulfill your long-cherished wish, we might be able to find you. Sure enough, after just over half a year of engagement, you returned..."

The Ninth Princess sighed with relief as she spoke, "You've been missing for over a year, and it's been tough on Zijiang. Your father said that when he comes out of seclusion, he'll start arranging your marriage..."

"Mother..." Ning Hua finally couldn't help but interrupt the Ninth Princess.

The Ninth Princess still had a kind smile on her face: "Are you shy now? I never saw you this shy when you were clamoring to marry Zi Jiang."

Ning Hua slumped his shoulders dejectedly: "Mom, I don't like Zi Jiang anymore..."

"What nonsense are you talking about? Haven't you been in love with him for 20,000 years?"

Ning Hua clasped his left hand with his right hand, took a deep breath, and said, "Mom, I really don't love Zi Jiang anymore. I don't want to marry him. I was ignorant in the past and made a lot of jokes..."

The Ninth Princess finally realized that her beloved daughter was not being coy but was truly unwilling to marry Zi Jiang. After a moment's thought, she asked, "Does she have a man she loves over there?"

Ning Hua lowered his head and said "hmm" softly.

The Ninth Princess's blood immediately boiled over and she started coughing loudly. Ning Hua quickly patted her back to comfort her.

"Mom, don't be angry... I don't know how I could have fallen in love with someone else in just one year."

The Ninth Princess just sighed: "Hua'er, your relationship with Zijiang is finally about to see the result, but you have fallen in love with a man from another world. The last time it took 20,000 years, how long will it take this time..."

The Ninth Princess started coughing and wheezing again as she spoke. Ning Hua hugged her mother's shoulders distressedly and called out tenderly, "Mother..."

"Alas... forget about that man. How could a man from another world be the husband of the 'Duanrou Princess' of the Nine Heavens? Hua'er, your marriage certificate with Zijiang has been stamped with the seal of Heaven, and it cannot be changed..."

Ning Hua let go of the Ninth Princess's shoulders. Yes, she had forgotten that she was not only the High God Ning Hua, but also the "Princess Duanrou" personally conferred by His Majesty the Emperor of the Nine Heavens...
