In the Palace of Divine Might, Crown Prince Meets Crown Prince

**In the Palace of Divine Might, Crown Prince Meets Crown Prince** (神武殿太子见太子, *Shénwǔ Diàn Tàizǐ Jiàn* *Tàizǐ*) is the 32nd chapter of the *Heaven Official's Blessing* novel.

## Summary

Xie Lian holds the ring that Hua Cheng left him, wondering what it is. The ring is described to be exceedingly beautiful and Xie Lian comes to the conclusion that it must be of great significance. Since he doesn't have a secure place to keep it, he puts it around his neck instead.

He stays at Puqi Shrine for a few days to rest, until Ling Wen contacts him and tells him to return to the Heavens immediately.

She informs him to come to the Great Martial Hall, which confirms that Jun Wu has returned. Xie Lian realized there's no way out of this and makes his way to the Heavenly Capital. As he walks along the Martial Deity Avenue he notices that all Heavenly Officials pretend he doesn't exist, purposefully ignoring him, but Xie Lian is used to it and doesn't mind, especially after what happened at the Banyue Pass.

Suddenly someone calls out to a royal highness. Xie Lian thinks he's the one spoken to for a moment, but the person quickly rushes by him to another Heavenly Official walking in front of him. The two notice Xie Lian looking at them and turn around, the person who rushed by awkwardly greeting him. The other Heavenly Official greeted him enthusiastically instead, before he's pushed to leave and also go to the Great Martial Hall.

Xie Lian overhears others talking and it turns out the Heavenly Official who was also a crown prince was Lang Qianqiu, the Martial God of the East and former crown prince of Yong'an, the country that overtook Xianle after it's downfall. Xie Lian already knew Lang Qianqiu had ascended and that they would meet at one point, so he doesn't think much of it. Then another person calls out to a royal highness, but this time it's Ling Wen adressing him. She says Pei Xiu will most likely be sentenced to exile, a temporary banishment from the Heavens. He also asks if they have found Lang Ying yet, but there's no trace of him until now.

They reach the Great Martial Hall and Jun Wu greets Xie Lian, causing all the Heavenly Officials to focus on him.

## Character Debuts

* Lang Qianqiu
* Jun Wu
Demon of Yi Nian Bridge

* Manhua
* Donghua

**Demon of Yi Nian Bridge** is a ghost that appeared every few years on the broken Yi Nian bridge and devoured travelers.

## Appearance

The ghost was wearing a ruined armor covered in blood and pierced by numerous blades and arrows. With every step he left traces of blood and flames of karma.

## History

He appeared every few years at the foot of the Yi Nian bridge on the Huang He river and wandered while waiting for travelers. When they appeared, he would stop them and ask three questions: "Where is this?", "Who am I?" and "What will you do now?". If one answered wrong, then the ghost would swallow them up in one bite, but nobody knew what the correct answers were.

Xie Lian heard of this and decided to guard the bridge until the ghost appeared before him. For the first question he answered "This is the human realm", which appeared to be wrong, since the demon countered with "This is the Abyss". The Crown Prince decided to attack instead of answering any more questions. The battle lasted nearly a day, but the ghost was finally defeated.

After successfully defending the bridge Xie Lian planted a flowering tree at the foot of the bridge and scattered a handful of golden soil to help the ghost pass to it's next life. A passing taoist saw him and asked what he was doing, to which Xie Lian answered with his most infamous phrase: "Body in the abyss, but heart in paradise". On the same night Xie Lian ascended to godhood.

## History

The ghost was created by White No-Face in the Kiln after the fall of Wuyong. It represents his life after the fall of Heaven Crossing Bridge, when "people burnt down his temples, toppled his divine statues, used blades to pierce his heart until it was mush, cursing that he was a useless creature, a bullshit god".

He says he can't imagine Ban Yue would release the snakes on purpose and she reveals that they don't obey her anymore. Fu Yao interrupts them to tie her hands. Xie Lian asks her to summon a Scorpion Snake to investigate the matter further. A snake does appear, but it's unnaturally aggressive. Suddenly Scorpion Snakes start to pour down from the sky.

Since they're visible again, the ghosts chase after them. Xie Lian ends up at a path with two ways, using the fortune shaker to determine which way to go, but both of his sticks read the worst of bad luck. San Lang offers to try and both of his sticks read the best luck, so they choose whatever path.

The ghosts catch up to them nonetheless, confronting Xie Lian about the murdered ghost fires. They're angry at first, but suddenly become incredibly scared of something and the crowd runs off in fear.

They continue on their way and Xie Lian asks if San Lang would like his fortune read. He agrees to having his palm read and Xie Lian tells him he has a bright, successful future ahead. In reality Xie Lian has no idea about palm reading and instead uses the opportunity to determine if San Lang is human or not. Since his skin is flawless, Xie Lian thinks he may be a Supreme.

San Lang asks about his fortune in love and marriage. While Xie Lian says he's not great at predicting relationships, he think many girls must have a crush on him. San Lang asks why he thinks so, but Xie Lian notices that San Lang just wants praise.

She gets hit by Xuan Ji, causing her to bleed out as well. Xie Lian promises to take care of Lang Ying before she dies.

The young soldier finally helps Xie Lian to get up. His body's temperature is high due to Land of the Tender's fragrance, however the soldier's hand is equally hot. The flower demons warn Xie Lian not to leave or else he will bump into someone undesirable down the road. Xie Lian asks who is he, the flower demons answer he's the one who brought them here. Xie Lian thinks they're talking about White No-Face. The white clothed won't face him head on but will only damage his spiritual powers by ruining his body's purity.

He asks the solider to bring him to a cave over there, once they made it, Xie Lian asks the solider to stab him with his sword. He needs to draw a array with his blood, however the soldier slashes him arm so Xie Lian doesn't have to harm himself. He doesn't have the heart to say what the soldier had done was pointless, because a mortal's gore is nothing contrary to a god's. Therefore, Xie Lian takes his blood along with the soldier's and draws two lines to the entrance on the cave.

The two of them head inside, Xie Lian explains that the‌ ‌outer‌ ‌barrier‌ ‌is ‌to‌ ‌ensure‌ ‌nothing‌ ‌outside‌ ‌gets‌ ‌in and ‌the‌ ‌inner‌ ‌barrier‌ ‌is‌ ‌to‌ ‌prevent‌ ‌anyone‌ ‌inside‌ ‌from‌ ‌getting‌ ‌out. The soldier needs to stay between the two lines to keep watch, he must also ignore everything from inside out. They can only wait for Qi Rong to bring reinforcements from the palace.

The flower demons' fruits ripen and start to cackle loudly. The soldier positions himself between the two lines, then a woman grows out of the soil completely. Soon after, many women walk nakedly on the earth with a red blossom on themselves. Xie Lian recites the ethics sutra out loud to ignore them. The soldier slashes the demon flowers, the remaining run away while cursing at him for being so violent. The flower demons then try to convince the soldier to get out of the array by showing him various types of women.

A demon finally figures out the soldier's favorite type, all the women then laugh at the soldier. They say he should come and enjoy, because he'll keep dreaming about it for 800 years. Xie Lian has no idea who are they talking about, but he reaches his limit and collapses on the ground. He then lets out a painful moan.

It's explained that Kemo hangs Ban Yue over the Sinner's Pit again and again each time she would escape. Whenever she was free for a while, she would catch the remaining dead Banyue soldiers and throw them down the Sinner's Pit. Due to her powerful array, no one could escape. The soldiers down in the pit could only be appeased by being fed the flesh of Yong'an people, thus people who would enter the Banyue territory would go missing and be sacrificed.

Xie Lian wonders as to why Ban Yue would control the Scorpion Snakes in a way that would lure the people to Banyue if she was against the kingdom, as well as who the two cultivators they briefly met are. Xie Lian wants to ask, but suddenly Ban Yue jumps into the pit herself. After she finds out that all the soldiers in the pit have been killed, she says that things have finally been resolved.

## Summary

The water merchant convinces everyone not to stab Xie Lian. Some are willing to stab him, but due to the shame of not helping him before, they stand still. The clouds are becoming darker and more dense, announcing the approach of the Human Face Disease.

Xie Lian has realized someone already took the black sword. The revengeful souls have come, he tries to drive them away but there are too many of them. They cling onto the people while wailing and howling. White No-Face is watching everything silently.

Xie Lian changes tactics and calls the souls to come to him. It's quite painful for Xie Lian to be attacked by them, but it's much better than to lose his true self.

Suddenly, they stop and go to another direction. At the end of the street, Wuming is holding the black sword he snatched from Xie Lian. He tries desperately to convince Wuming to give him the weapon, but Wuming sacrifices himself to the revengeful spirits. Xie Lian hears a blood curling scream, which he feels like he's heard before.

The souls are gone and the Yong'an citizens are lying on the ground. The black sword is also laying there with a pitiful white flower next to it. White No-Face explains joyfully that Wuming was his very last believer in this world, but now he is gone for good. White No-Face then mocks his believer for being more pathetic than Xie Lian already is.

However, Xie Lian asks Jun Wu to be banished again. He requests to have two shackles for his punishment, one to seal away his spiritual powers and another to give him extremely bad luck. After much convincing, Jun Wu banishes Xie Lian after having a spar, since you cannot punish a god without a good reason.

Afterwards, Xie Lian spends his days finding work. One of those days, Xie Lian sees Feng Xin's and Mu Qing's worshippers fighting on the street. Once he finishes cooking, he visits both of their temples to leave a bowl of rice, which smells so bad it even makes the bickering crowd disperse.

When leaving, he notices a small, red flower on the side of the road. He gently touches it, telling it that he hopes they shall meet again.

Xie Lian tells Pei Xiu there is no need to hide anymore. Fu Yao finds the idea of an important Heavenly Official descending without notice preposterous, but Xie Lian suggests that he may have used a clone instead of his own body. It's known that Pei Xiu has slaughtered a city before ascension which he ultimately concludes to be Banyue Kingdom. Thanks to multiple incidents he is also able to tell that A-Zhao must be that said clone.

Hearing all this, Fu Yao quietly disappears. A-Zhao, confirmed to actually be Pei Xiu, enters the scene with Ban Yue draped over his shoulder. Once he speaks, Kemo recognizes him to be Pei Xiu as well, immediately becoming enraged. Pei Xiu explains that he learned the technique to control the Scorpion Snakes and when Xie Lian questions how he and Ban Yue met, Xie Lian realizes that Pei Xiu is her childhood friend that she often spent time with.

## Uploading Images

* **Source:** Only images from **official sources**, such as the **manhua, donghua and official art**, are allowed to be posted on articles; **using fanart is prohibited.**
	+ *STARember* is the official manhua artist, but do not upload their artwork outside of material relating to the manhua.
	+ The only exception of using fanart is on your User's page. Either use your own or ask the artist for permission first however.
* **Name:** Images should have names that are descriptive of the content of the image. Try to be detailed and exact, but keep it short. This ensures that images can be found and organized more quickly.
	+ An example: if you have an image of Mu Qing's design in the donghua, ensure that 1) it's not named something like *"screenshot\_(insert date)"* or random numbers and letters, then 2) instead of for example naming it *"mu qing.png"* name it *"mu qing donghua.png"* or simply *"mq donghua.png"*. This makes the search for images easier and reduces the chance of duplicates.
* **Type:** The wiki highly prioritizes **RAW images**, ensure to not use pages with translations or screencaps with subtitles. It is generally preferred to remove all text from images used, thus try to remove text from for example speech bubbles of the manhua, unless this would result in clearly visible errors.
* **Format:** All types of images are allowed, although images on articles are preferably to be *.png* as it's the best quality and most compatible.
* **Rating:** Any pornographic images are strictly prohibited. Images involving gore and blood are allowed as Heaven Official's Blessing is an adult novel, but they are to be posted and used with caution and appropriately.
* **Quality:** Images are to be posted in good quality and free of errors. Remove borders and avoid visible disturbances such as mouse cursors.
* **Duplicates:** Do not upload duplicates of images that already exist. If you are unsure whether an image already exists, please use Special:FileDuplicateSearch. You can also check after uploading using Duplicate Images.
* **License:** Do not forget to add licensing information. All images on this wikia should be tagged with the correct license, in the case of official art - *Fair Use*.
* **Category:** All images are to be added to the Images category. Images depicting major characters are to be added to their respective category *(See: Images by Character)*, while locations, items, abilities, creatures, manhua previews, covers and wiki images are also to be categorized.

Lost Crescentian

**Lost Crescentian** (半月迷踪, *Bànyuè Mí Zōng*) is the sixth episode of the donghua based on the *Heaven Official's Blessing* novel written by Mo Xiang Tong Xiu. It was aired on the 28st November 2020. It was edited the following day due to discrepancies with the novel, such as Hong Jing's blade being red.

## Summary

The episode begins with the disease-ridden man waking up inside of Puqi Shrine. Still in panic and distress, he explains that he escaped from Banyue Pass, a place in the Gobi Desert where merchants and travelers frequently went missing. Xie Lian notices that the man is not human, so he grabs him. The man's arm suddenly deflates, and he tries to flee, but San Lang impales his ankle with a chopstick which causes him to completely crumble.

Xie Lian and San Lang examine the puppet before Xie Lian decides to consult the heaven's communication array. It turns out the Wind Master has returned and is giving out merits, so the Heavenly Officials are distracted. They ignore Xie Lian's attempt of bringing up Banyue, but Ling Wen advises him to stay out of it.

While Xie Lian is cleaning up, San Lang tells him about the former State Preceptor of Banyue when suddenly there's a knock on the door. It turns out Fu Yao and Nan Feng have come back to accompany Xie Lian on his journey to Banyue. They notice San Lang and immediately interrogate him, quickly enraged due to San Lang's teasing and prepared to use spiritual powers against him. Xie Lian calms them down and Nan Feng starts to draw the Distance Shortening Array.

Thanks to the spell, they arrive in a small town in the night and continue to make their way through the desert until the next day. During the walk, Xie Lian offers his sedge hat to San Lang when he complains about the heat. San Lang watches Xie Lian's face as he ties the hat straps before refusing and returning it. The group finds an abandoned house to rest in, so Fu Yao and Nan Feng use the opportunity to further investigate San Lang's true identity. Fu Yao offers him Form Revealing Water, but it has no effect on him. Nan Feng tries to give him Hong Jing, a sword that reveals one's true form, but it breaks as San Lang pulls it out of the sheath, also providing no answers.

Xie Lian notices two female figures running while looking out the window. They suspect one to be Banyue's State Preceptor, so they decide to follow them. A heavy sandstorm erupts around them, causing the group to lose the two runners. As the four manage to find each other in the storm, another argument erupts with Fu Yao remarking that the wind couldn't possibly blow them into the sky. Right after, Xie Lian suddenly gets blown away by the wind. Caught up in the storm, he orders Ruoye to grab something solid but it ends up grabbing San Lang.

The dancing ribbon twirling in the wind like a dream

There was never gathering and parting

Rich crimson fills the skies, as if real, as if an illusion

Silver butterflies flit lightly washing over the petals

Who speaks of flawlessness, when the sun is haunting and the moon is dark

Biased love lies at the dead end engaging with the hate and greed of the abyss

The blazing fires fade, the wild grasslands revitalize

One shall recede as another grows, then this repeats once more

The boundless universe in all its resplendence on the scrolls

There is evil, there is justice, but upon hearing of them who shall sigh

Where from is this gathering and parting, and where from is this to linger

Where from is this temptation, and where from is this illusion

Look down now below the whisk, the oasis that which envelops the mountain

Drift away and sprout wings to become an immortal

The dancing ribbon twirling in the wind like a dream

There was never gathering and parting

The blazing fires fade, the wild grasslands revitalize

One shall recede as another grows, then this repeats once more

The boundless universe in all its resplendence on the scrolls

There is evil, there is justice, but upon hearing of them who shall sigh

Where from is this gathering and parting, and where from is this to linger

Where from is this temptation, and where from is this illusion

Look down now below the whisk, the oasis that which envelops the mountain

Drift away and sprout wings to become an immortal

Where is the separation and the joy and sorrow

Where is the entanglement and where is the assumption

Destiny dictates that no desire is good

Everything lingers

Flowers and trees floating in the clouds

Nothing dissipates
