Yu Yuan hurried along the Golden Avenue and soon passed numerous palaces, coming to a towering palace.

This palace was the Heavenly Palace, the travelling palace of the Heavenly Emperor Fu Xi.

The entire palace was adorned with carved beams and painted rafters, glittering with gold and magnificence, grand and imposing.

Despite this, it did not feel crude, but instead, there was a sense of elegance surrounding it.

The saying "complex on the outside, graceful on the inside" perfectly described this feeling.

When Yu Yuan's feet stepped onto the jade steps in front of the Heavenly Palace, the originally wide view in front of him suddenly changed, and then he found himself in a delicate and tranquil garden.

Flower beds, rockeries, clear streams, pavilions.

Although this garden was not as vast as the one in front of the Bihaichaosheng Pavilion on Penglai Immortal Island, it had a unique charm of its own.

At that moment, in a corner of the garden, a clear stream flowed gently, making pleasant tinkling sounds.

A middle-aged man in a crown and dark robes was sitting cross-legged by the stream, his fingers flying over the strings of a zither, producing drifting celestial notes.

Yu Yuan stood quietly on the side, waiting.

Only after the piece was finished and the man's fingers completely halted did Yu Yuan bow deeply and said, "Greetings to the Great God Fu Xi."

Even though he has become the Saint Emperor of the Human Path, Yu Yuan's heart still dared not harbor the slightest disrespect towards this former Innate Great God.

The contributions made by the counterpart were simply too immense to fathom.

It can be said that it was the Great God Fu Xi who opened the path for the rise of the Human Race civilization.

Under his guidance, the Human Race gradually developed and grew from a state of ignorance and confusion.

Without him, the current thriving state of the Human Race would not exist!

Hearing Yu Yuan's words, Fu Xi smiled slightly, showing no surprise, and asked gently, "May I know why the young friend has come to seek me?"

In truth, he already knew the purpose of Yu Yuan's visit.

After all, not only is he the Heavenly Emperor of the Human Race, but he is also proficient in the ways of the Eight Diagrams and commands the River Map and Lo Book, making him peerless in divination and calculations.

Even though the air is now filled with Calamity Qi, he could still detect some traces.

Yu Yuan wasted no words and directly reported how he had been falsely accused of being an Outer Heaven Demon, then earnestly said, "I heard that the original decree from the Taoist Ancestor was conveyed by Nuwa.

Thus, the junior wants to clarify from Nuwa the details regarding the decree issued by the Taoist Ancestor then.

However, being bound by the Vajra Bracelet of the Taiching Saint, my Primordial Spirit cannot leave the Primordial to travel to Taixu Heaven, so I took the opportunity of coming here to celebrate to ask for your help in introducing me.

Only by clarifying this matter can I clear my name."

"So it is."

Fu Xi nodded slightly, falling into deep thought.

Honestly, he did not want to get involved in this matter.

Because he too was not sure whether Yu Yuan really was a demon from the outer realms.

Although he knew Xuan Yangzi, with whom Yu Yuan had incarnated, they did not have a close relationship. Moreover, given that there is a decree from the Taoist Ancestor, allowing Yu Yuan to come here was already beyond obligation.

Besides, this matter had nothing to do with him, and he saw no reason to offend Taiching and Yuqing, the two Saints, over it.

But the Great God Fu Xi was still the Great God Fu Xi!

Despite various doubts, under the earnest gaze of Yu Yuan, he sighed and said with a bitter smile, "My young friend should understand that sometimes, it's better not to know certain things than to know."

"I certainly understand."

Yu Yuan nodded solemnly, "But the situation now is such that I have been accused of being an Outer Heaven Demon, and if the truth is not clarified, I will truly be doomed.

Thus, I can only seek your help."

In saying that, he added seriously, "Moreover, if I were to be wrongfully killed, I'm afraid my master would direct all his anger towards Nuwa. Surely you wouldn't want to see such a scenario unfold either, would you?"

As a Primordial Divine being, and a contemporary to beings like the Three Pure Ones, Fu Xi was extremely familiar with the character of the Sect Hierarch Tongtian, and understood that what Yu Yuan said was not a threat, but could indeed happen.

With that thought, Fu Xi nodded slightly, "In recent days, the Nuwa Saint had sent someone to inform me that on the day of my birthday celebration, she would personally visit the Fire Cloud Palace.

You, my young friend, may stay here in this Heavenly Emperor Hall for now, and when the Nuwa Saint arrives at the Fire Cloud Palace, I will introduce you to her. As for whether or not the full story can be unraveled, it will depend on your own destiny."

Yu Yuan quickly bowed in gratitude, "Thank you, Great God, for your righteous help; I am deeply grateful!"

Fu Xi waved off the thanks, "There's no need for such formality."

After a pause, he said seriously, "However, there is one thing I must make clear to you—this Fire Cloud Palace is not solely my domain, so during your waiting period here, do not wander around needlessly to avoid anyone treating you impolitely."

Is he afraid I'll end up hurting someone again?

Yu Yuan thought to himself, but he had no objections.

He came to the Fire Cloud Palace to ask for help, not to start trouble, and naturally, he would comply with the host's wishes, not causing any inconvenience.

After settling down in the Heavenly Emperor Hall, Yu Yuan found the environment quite refined, indeed suitable for a long stay.

It was just a bit cold and empty.

The entire Heavenly Emperor Hall seemed to be in an independent space, with no other palaces around.

In the Heavenly Emperor Hall, aside from the Great God Fu Xi himself, there were only a few boys serving tea, and they seldom appeared.

Yu Yuan stayed here without worry about being disturbed or being discovered, and thus lived quite peacefully and slept securely.
