No Envy of Immortals - Chapter 1

Chapter 1

As the only outstanding graduate of the Heartless Path in several hundred years, I gloriously became the Heavenly Realm’s-

Southern Heavenly Gate security guard after my Ascension.

Being a security guard wasn’t so bad. Protecting the peace of a region is the duty of an immortal, after all, and I had no obsession with hollow titles or official positions.

The trouble was that the Southern Heavenly Gate had people coming and going every day, and I happened to have a helpful personality. I never refused anyone who asked for a hand.

Over time, people began to accuse me of being fickle and loose, saying I was using my position to flirt with everyone.

These rumors eventually reached the ears of the Heavenly Emperor.

And he actually took them seriously.

So, one day, the Heavenly Emperor sought me out, claiming he wanted to settle the score for me ruining his son’s Dao Heart.

Chapter 2

Poor me. I had never even laid eyes on His Highness Yuzhui, who resided high up in the Jasper Pavilion, yet I was being saddled with this inexplicable romantic debt.

It wasn’t until the Karma Mirror was brought out to reflect the past that I finally understood what had happened.

A while ago, my work partner was suddenly replaced by a shy, blushing new face.

Seeing that he knew nothing and always looked nervous and timid, I couldn’t help but look out for him a bit more.

I never expected that this seemingly weak and cowardly newcomer would one day make a shocking move, suddenly proposing to me and saying he wanted to be my Dao Companion.

I rejected him flat-out. Fearing he wouldn’t give up, I didn’t leave him any room for hope.

As it turns out, the Heavenly Emperor was now telling me that the shy, timid Heavenly Soldier, Xiao Yu, was actually his own son, His Highness Yuzhui.

“My son was bewitched by you. He is now depressed all day long, and even his Dao Heart has developed issues. He has no choice but to Descend to Mortal Realm for Tribulation Transcendence to repair it.”

“As for you, the culprit…”

I raised my hand in protest. “I was just fulfilling my duties as a senior. You can’t just pin this on me because His Highness is a hopeless romantic, can you?”

The Heavenly Empress, sitting quietly to the side, nodded in agreement, but the Heavenly Emperor didn’t care about her opinion at all.

The Heavenly Emperor was determined to punish me. He looked at me as if he were looking at a pile of filthy, troublesome trash.

“Vulgar, boorish woman. You have no right to speak here.”

As the highest-ranking ruler of the Heavenly Realm, he didn’t need to care whether I was wronged or not; he could simply decide my guilt and punishment on the spot.

His Highness Yuzhui needed to go down to repair his Dao Heart, so I had to follow him down to atone for my sins.

Furthermore, as a punishment, my Spiritual Power was to be completely sealed.

“A loose woman like you wouldn’t normally even be fit to carry my son’s shoes. But my son is pure and naive. Since he has set his heart on you, I will give you a chance.”

“You may return to your Immortal Rank only when you have learned to be absolutely faithful to Yuzhui.”

Fine, I got it.

That was his way of telling me I didn’t need to bother coming back.
