Chapter Eighty-four: Nuwa Takes Action

  "Emperor Jun" Di Jun and Xi He were both cultivating in the Heavenly Court when they suddenly sensed the aura of Old Ten. They scanned their divine consciousness and found that he was holding nine golden crow corpses under his claws, and they were immediately shocked and ran out together.

  Di Jun Xihe and the two of them still didn't know what had happened, but seeing that nine out of ten sons had died, they both looked up at the sky and let out a long wail, with tears streaming down their faces. Under Xihe's cries, even an almost-saintly cultivator would faint multiple times.

  At this time, Taiyi and Fuxi also rushed out, looking at this scene, Xin was very moved. If one were to say what is the most difficult thing for people to accept in this world, losing a child would be among them.

  Taiyi's temper flared up, and he grabbed the old Golden Crow with one hand. His eyes were filled with rage as he shouted loudly: "Tell me, what is going on here?"

  Lao Shi was immediately intimidated by Tai Yi's aura and couldn't utter a word for a long time.

  "Dong Huang, quickly put down Xiao Shi, I only have this one son" The demon queen Xihe got up and snatched Xiao Shi back from Taiyi's hands, holding him in her arms and crying again. Her cries were mournful and desolate, without a hint of the demon queen's usual majestic demeanor. Even Taiyi, who was known for his ruthless decisiveness, couldn't help but feel a pang of sympathy.

  At this time, Emperor Jun's eyes were also filled with anger and tears as he looked at Lao Shi and asked what had happened. Jin Wu Shizi no longer hesitated and told the whole story from start to finish, from his nine brothers flying away from the East Sea to his battle with Hou Yi, and finally to Chang Xi appearing and saving him while injuring Hou Yi.

  "Heavenly Archer Hou Yi, I will make you die without a place to be buried." Xihe's eyes were full of venomous color.

  At this time, Emperor Jun was also furious, but he was very clear in his heart. He had set a ban on the East Sea, and the nine golden crows could not fly out to make trouble unless someone removed the ban. However, only a saint who merged with the Heavenly Way could remove the ban without letting him sense it.

  Di Jun lowered his head and fell into deep thought, his eyes flashing with cold light. "Hou Yi killed my child, he must die," he said to himself. "And as for the saint who plotted against me, don't think you'll get off easy either. If I find out who did it, even if I can't kill you, I'll destroy all your Taoist sects."

  At this time, Changxi also rushed to the Heavenly Court. Now that such a big thing has happened, as a participant, he must come over to explain it.

  "Sister" Ji walked into the grand hall and found Xihe crying, her eyes red and swollen. Seeing her pale face, as if she had aged ten years overnight, Ji's heart ached and she quickly rushed over to help her up.

  Xihe saw that it was Chang Xi, and tears welled up in her eyes again. "Sister, I regret not listening to you at the beginning and coming to this heavenly court for a meeting. Otherwise, there wouldn't be today's pain."

  "Sister, don't be too sad, there's still Old Ten who needs your guidance." Chang Xi was also tearfully comforting Xi He.

  Xihe looked at the old ten in her arms and finally stopped some of the sadness, then looked at Chang Xi, and a thought flashed through her mind.

  "Sister, help me go to the back hall to rest for a while. Now, I'm feeling unwell in my heart and want to have a good talk with you."

  Xiang Xi often saw Xiang He's expression was somewhat off, but thinking that she must have cried herself to exhaustion, didn't say much, and supported her as they walked towards the rear hall, while continuously speaking in a soothing voice.

  "Brother, what are you still hesitating about? Nine nephews died miserably. Don't you want to kill Hou Yi to avenge them?" Xihe and Changxi left, and Taiyi suddenly roared at Emperor Jun, this was the first time he spoke to Emperor Jun like that.

  Di Jun didn't respond immediately. He glanced at the Golden Crow Old Ten beside him, picked him up in one move, and flew towards the Nüwa Daoist temple outside the Thirty-Three Skies.

  Nüwa was preaching to the likes of Lingzhu in the Taoist temple when she suddenly sensed the arrival of Emperor Jun and the ten Golden Crows. She couldn't help but feel a little puzzled, for even as a sage, she could not foresee what was about to happen now that the cycle of fate had begun.

  "The Demon Emperor arrived suddenly, is there something going on?" Nüwa said.

  Di Jun did not speak, but bowed his head and saluted Nüwa with a bow.

  "What does this mean?" Nüwa was greatly surprised, and hastily retreated. Although she was a saint, she belonged to the demon tribe, and Emperor Jun was the Demon Emperor, how could he receive such courtesy from her?

  "I hope the Goddess Nuwa will take action and avenge my son." Emperor Jun's eyes were bloodshot as he recounted how he had been plotted against, leading to the death of his nine sons at the hands of Hou Yi. He knew that relying solely on the quasi-saints in Heaven, he would be unable to overpower Emperor Jiang and kill Hou Yi, which was why he had come here to ask Goddess Nuwa for help. For this, Emperor Jun did not hesitate to compromise his own dignity as a demon emperor.

  Nüwa sighed after hearing this. The demon prince was killed by someone, although it was a well-deserved punishment, but it damaged the reputation of the demon tribe. As the holy person of the demon tribe, she should indeed take action. However, now that the witchcraft calamity has begun, who knows how many pairs of eyes are staring at this holy person of the demon tribe? Perhaps taking action again would fall into someone else's plan.

  Di Jun looked at Nüwa's expression and continued to say: "If Nüwa doesn't take action, I can only mobilize all the troops of the demon tribe to fight a decisive battle with the witch tribe. Although it is not certain that we can kill Hou Yi, making the witch tribe suffer heavy casualties will also be a way for me to avenge my wrongly killed child. I think the demons who value loyalty will join me in this fight."

  "The Evil Emperor cannot be allowed to exist, how can we let the Honghuang spirits suffer?" Nüwa said, but looking at Emperor Jun's determined expression, she knew that his mind was made up and couldn't help but sigh, "Forget it, I'll just go along with this." Nüwa said, but in her heart, she had already come up with a plan. Since they were going to take action, they might as well do it thoroughly, directly exterminating several ancestral witches with deep karma, promoting the operation of the killing cycle, and also seeking a way out for the demon tribe. It seemed that this matter would be beneficial for the completion of the quantitative cycle, and the Heavenly Way would not punish her.

  "There is one more thing I beg of you, Your Majesty. Now that I only have Old Ten left as my child, I hope you can let him stay in the Palace of Nuwa to avoid this calamity." Emperor Jun continued, "This matter is even more important than seeking revenge. The dead are already gone, but the living must strive for power."

  "Father Emperor" Jin Wu saw Emperor Jun wanting to leave himself and couldn't help but softly call out.

  Di Jun looked at his only son, a hint of affection flashing in his eyes, "From now on, you must not act impulsively, and listen carefully to the teachings of Nüwa."

  Jin Wu's tenth son experienced this matter, his temperament also became much more stable, and he couldn't help but nod in agreement.

  This matter was put aside for the time being, and Xihe entered the back hall, temporarily stopping her sorrow. She couldn't help but say: "I haven't thanked my sister yet, if it wasn't for my sister's actions, I'm afraid Lao Shi would have suffered a disaster." As she said this, tears flowed out again.

  "You're my sister, why must you be like this." Chang Xi hastily said, then began comforting Xi He.

  "That later Hou Yi seemed to have some feelings for his sister." Xi He stabilized her emotions and suddenly said calmly.

  Chang Xi was at a loss for words, and immediately said: "Sister, don't worry, Hou Yi killed nine sons of the Emperor, and my sister is not on good terms with him."

  "Why blame your sister? This matter can't be blamed on him, indeed my son's misdeeds are too deep, and he deserves the punishment. If you want to hate someone, you should hate the one who let out the nine princes."

  "Did sister really think so?" Xī's heart suddenly felt inexplicably relieved, actually he had always been afraid to face it, stuck between Xī and Hòu Yì, feeling very uncomfortable.

  Xihe's usual calm and collected demeanor was replaced by a more lively and animated expression as soon as she saw Chang Xi.

  "Of course, Hou Yi's actions this time can be considered as considering the lives of the Hong Huang spirits. The one who should be torn to pieces is the person who lifted the East Sea ban, no matter who it is, I will find him." Xihe said fiercely.

  Hearing this, Chang Xi finally felt at ease, "Not bad, everything is the fault of that schemer behind the scenes. To actually plot against the demon tribe's prince, truly a grave sin."

  At this time, Xihe shed a few more tears and said: "I know that my sister also has feelings for Hou Yi. Although he killed my son, I don't blame him. My sister is often alone in the Taiyin star, it's very lonely. I couldn't bear to see you like this, why not go find him?"

  "How could sister say such a thing?" Chang Xi said flusteredly.

  "We've been together for countless years, how could I not see your intentions? These years have indeed caused my sister to suffer. You two have feelings for each other, and Hou Yi is also a rare good man. If you marry him, it would also fulfill one of my wishes."

  "Sister" lightly called out, a hint of shyness on her face, but after all, Hou Yi had killed her sister's child, and there was still a thorn in her heart.

  "Sister, don't hesitate anymore. I have few relatives left now, you can fulfill my wish and let me rest in peace." Xihe said again.

  "This matter, this matter still allows me to think again." After finishing speaking, he flew towards Taiyin Star with a whoosh.

  Watching Xiangli's departing figure, Xi's eyes revealed a ruthless and venomous gaze. Later, Yi, I will also make you taste the pain of losing your beloved.

  Later, Hou Yi and Kuafu returned to Mount Buzhou and headed straight for the Pangu Temple. The Lotus Platform Immortal sensed their presence and flew out immediately. Seeing that Hou Yi was seriously injured, he couldn't help but frown, and after inquiring about what had happened, he didn't pay too much attention to it either. However, seeing that the two of them had eliminated their karma and still had some merit on their bodies, he was greatly relieved. He ordered the two to quietly cultivate in the Pangu Temple and not to interfere with the affairs of the witch and demon tribes again.

  Not long after, a strong sense of oppression suddenly came from the top of Buzhou Mountain. Emperor Jun shouted loudly: "Hou Yi's father, come out quickly and accept your death."

  A loud roar shocked all the witch tribes on Mount Buzhou. Gonggong, Zhurong and five others saw this and were furious, flying out in all directions. Seeing that there were not only Emperor Jun, Taiyi, Fuxi, but also Nüwa Shengren in the sky, they couldn't help but feel a little surprised.

  "Emperor Jun, you old bird, why are you shouting so loudly? Aren't you afraid of getting a tongue cramp?"

  "Hou Yi and Kuafu killed nine of our tribe's princes, quickly let them come out to meet their deaths." At this time, Taiyi spoke up, with a tone that implied he would fight at the slightest disagreement.

  "The demon prince wreaks havoc in the vast wilderness, causing countless lives to wither away, and this is the calamity that should befall him." At this time, Lian Tai Dao Ren flew out and saw Nüwa was also there, couldn't help but furrowed his brow, continuing: "I don't know why Saint Nüwa has come here, could it be that you also want to join forces with the witch and demon to determine the fate of this calamity?"

  "I am the Holy One of the Demon Clan, and this matter cannot be ignored. If you hand it over to Hou Yi's father, I will naturally leave." Nüwa said calmly, not putting the ancestors in her eyes at all.

  "What if I don't?" Liantai Daoren said coldly, looking at Nüwa.

  "I'll take the place of heaven and slay you, these deeply sinful ancestral witches, to bring peace to the vast wilderness and a clear sky." Nuwa said calmly.

  Lian Tai's expression also turned cold, Nüwa's move would definitely cause heaven and earth to shatter, whether Hong Huang could withstand it at that time was not the point, but the witch tribe on Mount Zhuo would definitely suffer heavy casualties.

  "Sages cannot resort to violence in a chaotic world, didn't you know that?" asked Lotus Platform Daoist.

  "All of you are just ants under the saints, why bother to make a big move against you." The Goddess Nuwa said lightly, with a plan already in her mind. She tossed the Mountain and River Map in her hand, covering the entire Mount Buzhou.

  The Mountain and River Society's ancestral temple map appeared, and Lian Tai Dao Ren let out a cold hum. It seemed that last time she didn't resist, allowing her to easily take control, but now she was addicted. Did she really think the power of the Holy One could suppress so many ancestral witches? How ridiculous.
