Chapter 415: Proposing to Nuwa

Jin Ning did not hide it and directly stated the purpose of Nuwa sending her here.

"The Shangqing Saint used the Chaos Bell to suppress fortune, which attracted the response of the Great Dao. Besides letting me come here to congratulate you, Niangniang also wanted to ask about the Chaos Bell. The Chaos Bell has been missing for a long time. I wonder if its sudden appearance this time has anything to do with you?" Jin Ning's eyes were clear, her expression serious.

Gu Xiu did not answer directly and asked back: "I wonder why you would ask like this?"

Jin Ning spoke slowly, her voice crisp and pleasant.

"As far as I know, the Jie Sect has never had a magic treasure to suppress fortune, and the Tong Tian Saint searched for endless years without finding one. However, at the time of the Investiture of the Gods among the three sects, he suddenly obtained the Chaos Bell. Nuwa Niangniang felt that there was something strange about this, so she let me come to ask you, rather than going to Dou Dao to inquire. I suppose Niangniang's meaning is to guess that the appearance of this Chaos Bell has something to do with you."

Hearing this, a faint smile appeared on Gu Xiu's face.

"I didn't expect Nuwa Niangniang to value me so much, which really flattered me."

Seeing Gu Xiu's smile, which seemed modest but carried a trace of complacency, Jin Ning frowned slightly.

"Fellow Daoist, don't dodge the question. You haven't answered my words yet."

As someone by Nuwa's side, Jin Ning naturally knew that Gu Xiu had means different from ordinary people.

Not only did he inform Nuwa that the four Saints joined forces to drag Nuwa into the water,

but he even talked about the great understanding of creation with Nuwa.

Discussing the Dao with a Saint as a junior, this was something that had never happened before, but it happened to Gu Xiu.

Nuwa said before that Gu Xiu might open up a new path to sainthood.

She originally thought that Nuwa valued Gu Xiu too much and overestimated his potential.

But since seeing Gu Xiu and Nuwa discussing the Dao calmly.

The content was incomparably mysterious, containing the principles of heaven and earth, and even Nuwa was convinced, causing heaven to show visions, flowers falling from the sky, and golden lotuses springing from the ground.

Jin Ning then believed in Gu Xiu's simplicity, perhaps he could really become the next Saint.

Facing Jin Ning's gaze, Gu Xiu was calm and smiled faintly.

"The Chaos Bell was discovered by chance when I was playing in the Chaos, and I specifically handed it to my Teacher, the Grandmaster, to use to suppress fortune."

Originally it was just a guess, but hearing Gu Xiu admit it personally, Jin Ning showed surprise: "It really has something to do with you."

Gu Xiu smiled modestly.

"I suppose it was when Donghuang Taiyi unfortunately fell during the Lich Great Decisive Battle that the Chaos Bell fell into the Chaos, so it has been missing. I just happened to have slightly better luck and happened to encounter it."

Jin Ning heard this and secretly slandered in her heart. She had been running back and forth between the Chaos and the Primordial world, why didn't she have such good fortune to bump into such a supreme treasure? Sure enough, comparing people to people is infuriating.

Coming back to her senses, she said: "The Jie Sect has the Chaos Bell to suppress fortune, so they won't worry about the loss of fortune anymore. It is really gratifying."

Gu Xiu nodded slightly, his gaze steady: "I have told everything that Nuwa Niangniang wanted to know. I wonder what Nuwa Niangniang is doing now?"

"Since Nuwa Niangniang returned from Three Immortals Island, she has been in retreat and has not gone out again." Talking about this, Jin Ning's eyes flowed, and her expression carried a trace of thought.

"However, since Nuwa Niangniang discussed the Dao with you and returned to retreat, Wa Palace has been filled with rich creation spiritual rhyme. It seems that Nuwa Niangniang seems to have taken another step forward on the path of Hunyuan."

Learning that Nuwa had gained insights after practicing the Hongmeng Creation Scripture and had become much stronger on the path of Hunyuan.

Gu Xiu was very satisfied.

In this way, when the decisive battle with the Chan Sect comes, they can catch the four Saints off guard.

"It is a good thing that Niangniang has gained insights on the path of Hunyuan. After you go back, express my congratulations to Niangniang on my behalf."

Jin Ning pondered slightly: "I will convey this. However, I heard that recently Daoist Randeng led the remaining Jade Void leaders to assist Jiang Ziya in attacking Jinji Ridge, but suffered a defeat. Do you know about this?"

Gu Xiu nodded: "I have heard a little about this. It is rumored that the defending general of Jinji Ridge is named Kong Xuan, whose ability is heaven-reaching, and his Five-Colored Divine Light is even more mysterious, beating Daoist Randeng and the Jade Void leaders until they fled in panic."

After listening, Jin Ning spoke slowly, her tone carrying a trace of complex emotion.

"Kong Xuan has some connection with my Phoenix Clan. He is the first peacock in heaven and earth. We have never had his whereabouts before. I did not expect him to appear in Yin Shang and block the Chan Sect's Investiture of the Gods at Jinji Ridge."

"Since Kong Xuan has participated in the Investiture of the Gods, it is impossible to get out. If you want to find him for help, you can mention my name. As the current deputy clan leader of the Phoenix Clan, I still have a few thin faces. Perhaps Kong Xuan is willing to help you."

Gu Xiu smiled faintly and said politely: "Thank you, fellow Daoist. If I need to, I will."

But he pondered inwardly.

Kong Xuan blocking Jiang Ziya from advancing to Chaoge at Jinji Ridge can be considered as indirectly helping the Jie Sect.

As for fighting the Chan Sect openly, with the strength of the Jie Sect disciples, they are not afraid at all.

But the people of the Chan Sect have always played dirty, which is something the Jie Sect disciples are not good at.

Jin Ning sighed and her expression was complex: "My Phoenix Clan is also a victim of the Great Calamity, suffering deeply, and almost exterminated. To this day, the whole clan has not recovered. Niangniang values you so much, but I hope the Jie Sect can survive this Great Calamity."

After sighing, Jin Ning said: "Nuwa Niangniang has always let me pay attention to the trend of the three sects' Investiture of the Gods. If you have any plans or countermeasures, you can also tell me. When I go back to report to Nuwa Niangniang, perhaps Niangniang will give some guidance, which will also be an extra help for the Jie Sect."

Gu Xiu's expression was calm, and he said slowly: "The Investiture of the Gods involves the life and death of the Jie Sect, and it is not something I, a junior, can decide. I still need to discuss the specific plans with my Master and fellow Senior Aunts and Uncles before making a decision."

"However, if there is anything I need fellow Dao

Jin Ning wore a look of confusion: "Reclaim the human race's fortune and authority? What does this mean?"

Gu Xiu smiled mysteriously: "Fellow Daoist, you only need to report this truthfully to Nüwa. I believe Nüwa will understand. If there is no better solution by then, it will not be too late to ask me again."

Among the six Saints, except for Nüwa, the other five only completed the crucial step of becoming Saints after establishing their own sects.

In particular, Taishang Laojun established the Ren Sect and diverted half of the human race's fortune and authority to himself.

Seeing that Gu Xiu was tight-lipped and nothing more could be asked, Jin Ning stood up and nodded slightly.

"I will convey your words truthfully when I return to the Palace of the Empress of Humanity. If the Empress has any instructions, I will come to inform you."

Gu Xiu stood up and cupped his hands: "I have troubled you."

He watched as Jin Ning flew away from the Three Immortals Island, tore through the void, and disappeared as her figure merged into it.

Only then did Gu Xiu withdraw his gaze, pondering to himself.

"It was clearly a three-sect Investiture of the Gods, yet only the Chan Sect and the Jie Sect are fighting to the death, while the Ren Sect has been fishing in troubled waters, reaping the benefits. If Nüwa truly reclaims the human race's fortune and authority, the Ren Sect will suffer the most. By then, Taishang Laojun will likely be unable to sit still. This good show has only just begun..."

Thinking of the scene when the scheme succeeded, the corners of Gu Xiu's mouth curled up slightly.
