" Consort Yan said calmly, "If the Divine Emperor will help me subdue Shi Qiluo, then we need not fear Heavenly Lord Hao. " Shi Qiluo laughed.
"Elder Sister, if you refine me, you will rise in a single leap to the Heavenly Court realm, with all thirty-six heavenly palaces complete. Would Langxuan then still be anything but your prisoner? Could you spare the son of your brother-in-law and Gong Yun? " Consort Yan gave a cold laugh and said no more.
Divine Emperor Langxuan's head ached. These two—one the Empress, the other Yuanmu—were both thorns, their enmity deep, an alliance between them impossible.
And although he was willing to join hands with them, he could not help being on guard against them. This alliance was nothing but a heap of loose sand! Just then, a voice rang from afar, sonorous and full of an exalted, emperor-like authority: "If my son Hao gains power, the Empress must die, Yuanmu must die, and Langxuan, as Hao's elder brother, must also die.
There is no possibility of your merely becoming prisoners!

"Elder Brother! " The voice drew near, quickly.
"But you may safely join forces, because—Langxuan, you are my son! Empress and Yuanmu, you are my women! " Heavenly Lord Xiao walked toward them, his aura unfathomably deep. He went straight before the five, first returned the bow to the Taiji Ancient Gods, then looked around and smiled.
"We are one family—a harmonious and loving family.
