Eternal Dream

Episode 2 (New Ver.)

After transforming into her fox form, Feng Jiu ran down the stairs from the throne room, never in her life had she felt so embarrassed in her whole life.

Feng Jiu had been living in Qing Qiu all her life, now that she had ventured to the Heavenly Realm to visit her aunt as the Queen of Qing Qiu to experience some time there, as well as to learn from her aunt.

Feng Jiu went to her aunt's Palace to wait for her there, back at the Palace, Dijun converged with the Empress and Emperor about some issues in the Mortal Realm.

"I do apologise for Feng Jiu's behaviour as she left, she doesn't know much about the Heavenly Palace" Bai Qian said as Dijun nodded his head.

"There is no need to, she has never been here before and has never been told the rules, I am sure one of her maids will be able to help her adjust during her stay here" Dijun said.

After their conversation, Dijun excused himself and left the throne room. Passing by Bai Qian's Palace, he noticed a red fox sleeping on the swing that sat near the doors to the Palace.

Tilting his head to the side a bit, he then walked up to the sleeping fox and took off his purple gown, gently lying it over the body of the sleeping fox who was to asleep to wake up.

After watching the fox sleep for a while, he then left and returned to his Taichen Palace, sitting at the table and resting his elbow on his knee as Si Ming entered.

"My lord" he said and bowed to him as he sat opposite him, pouring two cups of tea and held one towards Dijun who opened his eyes and received the cup from him.

"I heard you met the little Princess Feng Jiu of Qing Qiu" Si Ming said as Dijun looked at him with an evil look.

"It's Queen Feng Jiu, she ascended the throne after her aunt become Empress of the Heavenly Realm" Dijun said.

"I saw you with her to, you watched her sleeping on the swing" Si Ming said and Dijun tsked at Si Ming silently.

They conversed about the matters of the Mortal Realm and the other Realms, Si Ming told Dijun about the Demon Realm's Queen who wanted to overthrow the Heavenly Realm but threatening the other Realms that supported the Empress and Emperor.

"Do not let the Queen of Qing Qiu know of this matter, I will be taking care of it" Dijun said as Si Ming nodded and watched Dijun get up from his spot and walk out of his Palace.

Meanwhile, later, Feng Jiu conversed with her aunt, gaining some knowledge and learning of life in Heavenly Realm, Feng Jiu was half thinking about the purple gown that was on her when she woke up in her human form.

As Feng Jiu bid farewell to her aunt to head over to her temporary Palace, she walked along the bridge, the lotus pond spread out far and underneath the bridge.

As Feng Jiu was not concentrating enough, she ended up finding herself in front of Taichen Palace.

Feng Jiu felt her face get warm and hot, she turned around before someone walked past her and she looked up to see Si Ming who smiled at her.

Si Ming visited her Realm when Bai Qian was still Queen, when she endured her love trial to ascend to high Goddess.

"What brings you little Princess?" he asked, he still called her that nickname even though she was a Queen now.

"Don't ask me, I was to concentrated on the lotus pond, which looks beautiful, I think I may have my people build me one so I can enjoy the loveliness" Feng Jiu said with a smile.

As they moved over to the Pavilion near Taichen Palace, Feng Jiu and Si Ming talked about her stay in the Heavenly Realm, but there was a question that was nagging at Feng Jiu's mind.

"I do want to ask, have you seen Lord Dijun?" Feng Jiu asked, looking at Si Ming as she sipped some tea from her cup.

"I just saw him before he went out for some business" Si Ming said, and Feng Jiu blushed slightly at him.

"Did he ask you about me?" Feng Jiu asked, wondering what Dijun had thought about her.

She had been hoping to avoid him since she basically embarrassed herself in front of him.

"No, he didn't" Si Ming said as Feng Jiu nodded, she then turned in her seat and used her magic to reveal Dijun's purple gown on the table.

"I was sleeping in front of my aunt's Palace waiting for her to return and when I woke up, I found this on me" Feng Jiu said, and Si Ming nodded.

"I did see him watch you sleep; it was quite amusing" Si Ming said making Feng Jiu look at him with a confused look on her face.

"Lord Dijun has been the cold type you know, he never comes to events and he barely has any maids within his Palace, if you wish, I could send you to his Palace to get the bearings and learn of the Palace rules" Si Ming offered.

"I may have to think about that offer, I will return to my Palace to get some sleep, today's events have tired me out, I haven't been sleeping well either due to having somethings on my mind, plus tomorrow I might return to Qing Qiu to deal with some incidents" Feng Jiu said.

After her conversation with Si Ming, Feng Jiu went back to Taichen Palace to find any clues as to where Dijun had gone to. Sitting at the table, Feng Jiu found a piece of paper with some writing on it, there she found where Dijun was, she left the table and ran to the East Side Gate.

Vanishing through and appearing on the other side, she found herself in the Mortal Realm. Looking around, Feng Jiu heard something in the distance, she then followed the sound and used her fox senses to come to a clearing, where bamboo trees surrounded the area.

There she saw Dijun standing across from a woman, by the look of her clothes, Feng Jiu knew she was the Demon Clan's Queen, she was the one she heard of that wanted to overthrow the Heavenly Realm.

As the woman used her magic sword to attack Dijun, Feng Jiu impulsively moved forward and use her magic sword that glowed pink, blocking the woman's attack.

"Feng Jiu" Dijun said from behind her and she turned her head with a bright smile on her face.

"You can't get rid of me that easily my Lord" Feng Jiu said as she used her strength to push the Demon Queen back as she hissed angrily at her.

"I'm guessing the little girl that has come to play is your secret weapon?" the Queen laughed as Dijun pushed the Fox Queen behind him.

"She had no business here; it is our fight not hers" Dijun said as Feng Jiu pushed herself away from him.

"I don't need protection" she said angrily, holding onto her sword tightly. As they argued, the Queen thought of the perfect time to bring an end to the famous Dong Hua Dijun.

Using her magic to summon multiple swords at once, the Demon Queen swung the swords at them. Noticing, Feng Jiu turned her head before moving herself in front of Dijun as a sword hit her in the shoulder. Spitting blood from her mouth, she collapsed to the ground in front of Dijun.

Dijun used his magic to contain the Queen in the maio chasm, after gathering the Fox Queen in his arms, he walked to the gates holding her, appearing at the East Side Gate where the Heavenly Realm stretched out before him.

After finally getting to his Taichen Palace, he laid the Fox Queen onto his bed, ordering a maid to get a bowl of warm water, a cloth and some bandages.

Moving her hair out of the way, Dijun moved the sleeve off her right shoulder so he could contain her wound.

"My Lord" the maid said, and he took the bowl from her, setting it on the second stair to the bed, dipping the cloth into the water and rinsed the water from the cloth.

Cleaning her wounds, the water turned red, after getting a new bowl with clean fresh water, he laid another cloth on her forehead.

The maid tasked with bandaging her wound and changing her clothes, afterwards, Dijun then used some of his magic to help her heal while she slept.

As he watched her sleep for the second time, he sat beside her sleeping form, before he then fell asleep himself.

After a while, Feng Jiu woke from her sleep, she found Dijun sleeping beside her, taking the blanket off of her, she laid the blanket on him before walking to the door to his Palace, she left, going back to her own Palace to rest.
