After these boring weeks passed, Zenith Heaven Emperor feels restless. He has been cooped up in his palace, waiting for the reconstruction of the Heavenly Courts to be complete. With only the fragments from Ruism left to collect, Zenith Heaven Emperor is eager to get out and explore.
It's at this time that Song Shuhang, Zenith Heaven Emperor's disciple, returns from space with plans to shoot a movie. Zenith Heaven Emperor is intrigued by the idea and decides to join in on the fun. He's always wanted to participate in a movie, and this seems like the perfect opportunity.
As Zenith Heaven Emperor prepares to leave for the movie shoot, he remembers that it will take place at the Ruism Headquarter. This is an excellent opportunity for Zenith Heaven Emperor to visit the Ruism faction, something he has been wanting to do for quite some time.
'I can participate in the movie and visit Ruism at the same time,
Zenith Heaven Emperor thought to himself. 'Perhaps I could even integrate my meeting with them into the movie.'
Zenith Heaven Emperor decides to set off. He concentrates, and his eyes begin to glow with a brilliant light. He reaches out his hand and summons his space powers, manipulating the fabric of the universe itself.
In an instant, he locates his disciple Song Shuhang, who is using a flying tool to travel towards Yu Jiaojiao's house. Zenith Heaven Emperor opens a space gate and steps through it, appearing beside his disciple in mid-air.
"Master!" Song Shuhang exclaims in surprise.
"Ah, Shuhang, how have you been?" Zenith Heaven Emperor asks with a smile.
"I've been good, master. I just returned from space and was on my way to Yu Jiaojiao's villa. She kidnapped an Author, and we're planning to force him to write us a movie script," Song Shuhang says, eager to share his plans.
"Oh, that sounds exciting. What kind of movie are you making?" Zenith Heaven Emperor asks, feigning ignorance.
"It's a fantasy adventure movie with some martial arts elements. It's going to be awesome!" Song Shuhang says, his eyes shining with excitement.
"That sounds like a lot of fun. Mind if I tag along?" Zenith Heaven Emperor asks casually.
"Of course not, master! It would be an honor to have you join us," Song Shuhang says eagerly.
"Great! Let's get going then," Zenith Heaven Emperor says, opening another space gate to speed up their journey to Yu Jiaojiao's villa.
As they arrive at the villa, Yu Jiaojiao welcomes them with a smile.
"Welcome, Senior Zenith Heaven Emperor and Song Shuhang. It's good to see you both here," Yu Jiaojiao says, greeting them warmly.
"Thank you, Jiaojiao. It's good to see you as well," Zenith Heaven Emperor says, returning the smile.
After a short exchange of pleasantries, Yu Jiaojiao leads them to a small black room where the author is being kept. The room is dimly lit and the air is thick with tension.
As they approach the room, Zenith Heaven Emperor decides to activate his invisibility mode. Song Shuhang notices this and asks, "Master, why did you make yourself invisible?"
"I just thought it would be more interesting this way," Zenith Heaven Emperor replies with a mischievous grin.
Song Shuhang raises an eyebrow, not quite sure what to make of his master's response.
As they enter the small black room, the three of them see the author sitting on a chair with his head down, seemingly lost in thought.
Song Shuhang's eyes meet with the author's, and he is dumbfounded. The bright light illuminates the face of the author, whom Song Shuhang found very familiar.
The author was somewhat handsome and wore a new pair of trendy eyeglasses. When he raised his head, his lenses refracted a weird light. It was guaranteed that these eyeglasses were of the same brand as the ones Young Master Phoenix Slayer was wearing.
There was no mistake. It was precisely Shuhang's good friend Gao Moumou!
In the room, Gao Moumou likewise looked at the face of the guest that had come to visit him.
Gao Moumou was also dumbfounded.
Wasn't that his good friend Song Shuhang?
The atmosphere became weird.
"Old Gao." Song Shuhang braced himself and waved his hand at Gao Moumou.
Zenith Heaven Emperor just stands back and watches with amusement, enjoying the show.
"Heavens. Shuhang, you actually came here so quickly. I just told someone to send you the address of this place, and after a few minutes, you are already here?" Gao Moumou sat up on the chair and beckoned with his hand. "Shuhang, did you happen to be close to this place?"
At this time, Yu Jiaojiao, who is sitting on Song Shuhang's shoulder is likewise confused.
Song Shuhang and the author actually know each other?
As Gao Moumou spoke, Song Shuhang forced a smile and replied, "Yes, you could say that I was nearby."
Gao Moumou looked at Shuhang strangely, noticing a difference in his demeanor. He seemed taller and stronger, and Gao Moumou couldn't help but wonder what was going on.
Under normal circumstances, Shuhang would have given him a warm hug right after entering the room. Then, he would have immediately asked him why he had held the meeting inside this villa.
Gao Moumou crossed his arms and propped his chin up, looking at Song Shuhang through his lenses. For some reason, he felt as though Song Shuhang already knew everything… as though he already knew the reason he was inside the villa…
Suddenly, Zenith Heaven Emperor, who had been silently observing, suddenly burst out laughing, causing Gao Moumou to be shocked.
After all, he had just heard someone he knew laugh without seeing him. Afterward, he quickly dispelled his invisibility appearing next to Shuhang, which shocked Gao Moumou even more.
Before Gao Moumou could however question what's going on, Shuhang already asked, "What's so funny?".
Zenith Heaven Emperor could not help but expose his disciple while barely able to contain his laughter, "You're the reason Gao Moumou got kidnappe, because you wanted to shoot a movie! This is priceless!"
Gao Moumou stared at him in disbelief.
"Shooting a movie?" The corner of Gao Moumou's mouth twitched.
Feeling embarrassed, Shuhang stammered, "I-I can explain!"
Zenith Heaven Emperor just continued to laugh, finding the situation too amusing. In the end, Shuhang had to tell the whole story
"Yes. Of course, it's not that type of movie you might be thinking of. It was just a movie we wanted to shoot to have fun. Then, we would happily play it during New Year's celebrations," Song Shuhang continues. "Afterward, a friend of mine said that we would need a script as well if we wanted to shoot a movie. After all, the movie would still need to have a basic plot, right?"
Song Shuhang continues with his explanation in a gentle tone. "My initial plan was to shoot a small movie, and there wasn't really the need for a script. We could have shot it the way we preferred, and that was it… but after my friend brought up that matter about the plot, I felt that what she said was indeed reasonable. Afterward, that friend of mine offered herself to help me look for an author that could write the script for the movie, guaranteeing that she would find one that wrote very interesting stories. As a result, I agreed to her plan."
After hearing up to this point, Gao Moumou touched his face. The corner of his mouth has started to twitch already.
"Then, a few days ago, I had to go to a very distant place due to personal reasons. Thereupon, I left the task to look for that author that wrote interesting stories to my trusted friend. I left everything in her hands and didn't pay attention to the matter anymore," Song Shuhang said.
"…" Gao Moumou felt that his whole face had started to twist.
"Ahaha, judging from your expression, you must have guessed it already, right? Anyway, your guess is correct. The name of my trusted friend is precisely Yu Jiaojiao and that unfortunate Author is none other than you!"
