AN: Starting today, the release will be set to 1 chapter per day at 00:00 of whatever time Webnovel uses. As for me not being able to release anything, that will not happen for now, due to me having already written about 30 chapters in total by now.
After accepting Shuhang as my disciple, the canon timeline proceeded similarly to how we know it. However, there were a few notable events that occurred during this time that are slightly changed.
One such event was when Shuhang traded his poisonous dragon plant with Medicine Master. The exchange was quite different, as Shuhang didn't trade for a cultivation technique like he did in the original timeline. Instead, he traded for resources that could help him in his cultivation journey. The items he traded for were rare and valuable, and they allowed him to take great strides in his cultivation.
Also, I gave him a Dao Name, after all he has become a cultivator now and needs one. I chose the name that was supposed to be his first Sage Name, Tyrant Song. Although he didn't like it at the start, he still accepted it. Moreover, I taught him some proper etiquette for cultivators.
During this time, Shuhang also showed Medicine Master how to refine pills with an electric stove and soup pot. His technique was revolutionary, and Medicine Master was amazed at how he even got this idea. With Shuhang's guidance, Medicine Master quickly able to learn it.
In addition to these events, Shuhang also had his first kill during this period. It was a grueling and difficult battle, but Shuhang emerged victorious. The experience was both exhilarating and terrifying, and it left a lasting impression on him. Unlike in the original novel, the battle was much easier due to my guidance.
He also dealt with Altar Master during this time. Altar Master was a formidable opponent, and their battle was one for the ages. Shuhang's cunning and intelligence were on full display as he outmaneuvered Altar Master at every turn.
During this period, I heard a piece of exciting news that White, a in-name disciple of my father, will soon come out of seclusion. I can't afford to miss this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, especially since he could be considered my junior brother as his, I feel the need to greet him. I eagerly anticipate meeting him.
As I observed my disciple Shuhang, I noticed he was spending a lot of time with my 'little' cousin, Sixteen. It was apparent that Shuhang had developed feelings for her, and I could see the chemistry between them. I wondered if their budding romance would lead to something more, but only time would tell.
Furthermore, the Ancient Heavenly Court is another matter that needs my attention. As the crown prince, it is my duty to gather the remnants forces and declare my return and rightful takeover.
As I pondered my next move, I also realized that there was only less than a year left until the Heaven would be renamed to Zenith Heaven, a name I chose myself. This was a momentous occasion that would forever cement my place in history as the greatest cultivator of all time.
I decided that the best way to start gathering the remnant forces of the Ancient Heavenly Court was to focus on the 'Mysterious Island'. This Island recently became very famous and got a reputation that resounded throughout the cultivation world, and I knew that it was one of the Court's remnants.
Speaking of cultivators, I couldn't help but think of the Heavenly Way. Which Heavenly Way after all didn't have a giant organization behind him? Oh wait, they are all loose cultivators if I remember correctly! I had a good laugh thinking about it, but it also made me question the various sects in the world. Have they no power at all? After all, they are incompetent enough to lose 8 out of 8 times.
Ah, and how could I forget about the Monster Dog Doudou? Just like in the original novel, Doudou made an appearance before Shuhang. He's really cute and made me think if I should also get myself a pet.
In my case, however, it has to be at least on par with a dragon or a phoenix. Everything else would make me lose face, after all.
Now that I think about it, since this world exists, do other worlds that were nothing more than fictional in my previous life also exist and if they do can I go there. After all, in my previous life I read many novels that I would love to go to capture myself a pet.
However, my mind was mostly preoccupied with another matter. I was determined to capture the heart of Soft Feather, and I had come up with the perfect plan. Knowing that she loved extreme things, I decided to take her out of her Island a few times.
Of course, this plan is not without risks. Soft Feather's father is known to be overprotective of her, and sneaking her out of her Island will surely anger him. But I am confident in my abilities and know that he isn't my match to begin with. Which Spirit Venerable was after all ever a match for me, the man equaling Heaven.

Fast-forward until shortly before White awakens, and we find ourselves in the midst of a new adventure. Today, I have decided to sneak into Spirit Butterfly Island, one of the most heavily guarded places in the entire cultivation world. It is said that Venerable Spirit Butterfly erected all these formations to protect his daughter.
But I am not just any cultivator. With my high space comprehension and mastery over spatial abilities, I am confident that I can bypass its defenses and infiltrate the island undetected. And so, I open a space gate and step through, leaving behind the safety of my own dimension and venturing into the unknown.
As I arrive at Spirit Butterfly Island, I am immediately struck by its beauty. The air is crisp and clean, and the lush greenery that surrounds me is a testament to the incredible power of the cultivators who maintain this place. I can see why Soft Feather loves it here so much.
Making my way deeper into the island, I finally arrive at Soft Feather's location - the center of Spirit Butterfly Island. The sight before me is breathtaking. Soft Feather's residence is a magnificent palace with towering walls and intricate designs that glow with a golden light. I am in awe of the beauty of this place, and I know that Soft Feather must truly be living like a princess here.
Taking a deep breath, I approach the entrance to Soft Feather's palace, preparing myself for what could be a difficult conversation. After all, Soft Feather is not just any ordinary cultivator. She is the young lady of Spirit Butterfly Island, and her father is known for being overprotective of her.
But I am determined to ask her the question that has been on my mind for some time now. As I enter the palace, I am greeted by the sight of exquisite furnishings and decorations that are fit for royalty. Soft Feather is seated in a spacious hall, surrounded by maids and servants who attend to her every need.
"Hello Soft Feather, it's been a while since we last met," I say, my voice echoing in the grand hall. "I hope you don't mind me dropping by unannounced."
Soft Feather looks up, surprised to see me. "Zenith Heaven Emperor! What are you doing here?" she asks, her eyes widening in disbelief.
I smile at her, feeling a little nervous. "I came to see you, Soft Feather. I have something I want to ask you."
Her expression turns curious. "What is it?" she asks, tilting her head to the side.
I take a deep breath before continuing. "I was wondering if you would like to accompany me on a little adventure," I say, my heart pounding in my chest.
Soft Feather's eyes light up with excitement. "An adventure? Count me in! Where are we going?"
I chuckle, feeling a little relieved. "It's a surprise," I say, "but I promise you'll love it."
Soft Feather nods eagerly. "Okay, let's go!"
As we make our way out of the palace, I can't help but feel a sense of satisfaction. Soft Feather has agreed to come with me, and I know that this could be the start of something great.
As we step out into the bright sunlight, Soft Feather turns to me with a curious look. "Zenith Heaven Emperor, how did you manage to get past all the defenses and come to my island undetected?" she asks.
I smile, feeling a little proud of myself. "Let's just say that I have some tricks up my sleeve," I say mysteriously, "and that I am stronger than you think."
Soft Feather looks at me with new eyes, realizing that I am not just any ordinary cultivator. "I see," she says, a little surprised.
And so, with Soft Feather by my side, we set out on our adventure, ready to face whatever challenges come our way.
