One Shots - Tian Guan Ci Fu - Heaven Officials Blessing

Celebration I

Xie Lian was heading to the entrance of his palace to meet someone.

"Your Highness! Your Highness! Here!" Shi Qingxuan called out as he waved to him.

Xie Lian sorriu e se dirigiu rapidamente para o qual lhe chamava.

"Good night, Wind Master." Xie Lian greeted politely.

"Good evening! Ready for your party?" Shi Qingxuan asked excitedly.

"Umm...Yes? Anyway, we don't need to have a big party. I stopped celebrating this date a long time ago, so there's no need to make a fuss. Just a cake would be more than enough." Xie said embarrassed. After all, why would he celebrate this date again after so many centuries? And why did they need a holiday just because it was the day he was born? He really didn't understand why all this attention was being paid to him.

Why wouldn't we celebrate our emperor's birthday? Of course there has to be a big party! Where is Hua Chengzhu?

"He's coming later, he had urgent matters with He Xuan."

"He Xuan...Is he coming..?" Shi Qingxuan asked in an apprehensive tone of voice.

"No. Don't worry. Let's go?"

"Let's go!"

The heavenly officials had organized a grand birthday party for Xie Lian, who was now the strongest and most famous official in the heavens. Everyone knew his name and story, even the humans down below. Xie Lian now had over a million devotees who spread his story and his words. This made him change his reputation from the God of Scrap to the Savior. Thus, he was elected as the new Emperor of the Heavens because he was the most competent and experienced. But even with all this sudden fame, Xie Lian never let himself get carried away by it. He didn't change because of it. He remained the same Xie Lian as always.

As for Hua Cheng, they stopped portraying him as bad, even humans portrayed him in a good way, as Xie Lian's best friend, the one who was always by his side and helped him. After all, even the most beautiful stories were not portrayed exactly as they happened. Sometimes they even portrayed them both as brothers, which was especially strange. Unfortunately, at this time, humans still would not be able to accept a relationship between two men or non-heterosexuals, nor would they accept that Ling Wen was a woman.

Arriving at his party, Xie Lian could see some officers he knew, but there were also several there that he had never seen in his life. After all, the heavens had many officers, but in a while he would at least know the titles of all of them. It was his duty, he had to know them.

As soon as he arrived with Shi Quingxuan by his side, the crowd came towards him to greet him and Qingxuan as well. Even though he had been missing for a while, his popularity remained the same. Even though no one ever knew what happened to him or his brother who was now no longer among them, some still believe that it was Shi Quingxuan even after Xie Lian told everyone that the Water Master would not have resisted a calamity. This is also why Shi Quingxuan no longer lived in the heavens but in a city.

"Your Highness." Feng Xin greeted.

"General Nan Yang." He greeted back.

Pei Ming, who had just arrived, greeted Xie Lian with a nod and discreetly put a piece of paper in his sleeve.

Xie Lian greeted him back and took out the paper from his sleeve, also discreetly and read it quickly so that no one would notice it.

"party at my house after this boring celebration. You can also bring your pet ghost"

Only Pei Ming would to send such an informal piece of paper to the Emperor of Heaven.

Xie Lian let out a nasal chuckle and returned to the formalities of the event. He greeted gods here, signed autographs there. And he continued like this throughout the entire day.
