Chapter 58: Martial aunt is so beautiful, Nuwa clarifies her heart

~8 min read 1,509 words

Jintingshan, Yuwudong.

Dao Xing Tianzun had been brooding over Wei Hu's death.

Although Yuanshi Tianzun didn't say who killed him and only told him to use the remaining two disciples as the ones to face the calamity, Dao Xing Tianzun couldn't swallow this breath.

"I remember when Wei Hu went out to practice, he said he was going to the East Sea to hunt exotic beasts and secretly hunt some dragons, taking dragon liver and dragon heart to improve his cultivation."

"There are not many people in the Dragon Clan who can kill Wei Hu. Suddenly being listed must have been killed by those Jie Sect thieves."

Dao Xing Tianzun closed his eyes slightly and fell into deep thought.

"Although I can't deduce the murderer, the Dragon Clan and the exotic beasts in the sea must know some clues. As long as I find them and ask clearly, I will know who killed Wei Hu."

Dao Xing Tianzun's eyes were angry, and he looked up toward Biyou Palace.

"I must kill my way back!"

Following this, he left the cave and headed to the East Sea.

……

Three Immortals Island.

Gu Xiu walked leisurely on the island.

The breeze blew, carrying strands of immortal spiritual energy.

Ahead, a graceful figure suddenly came into view, standing gracefully.

It was Qiong Xiao, wearing a light red immortal dress, her skirt fluttering.

Her eyes were closed, her face was quiet and focused, as if she were one with the surrounding heaven and earth.

Her hair hung down like a waterfall, flashing with dots of starlight, and there was a touch of coldness and nobility between her brows.

Gu Xiu couldn't help but be stunned, his gaze locked on Qiong Xiao.

"Is martial aunt sensing heaven and earth?"

"Although martial aunt usually speaks little and has the appearance of an ice beauty, looking at it from this angle, that beautiful and somewhat cold-contoured face also has a different kind of beauty."

Seeming to feel Gu Xiu's gaze, Qiong Xiao opened her eyes slightly, her eyes like autumn water, waves rippling.

"Martial nephew, why are you here?"

Gu Xiu wouldn't say he was peeking, so he smiled and went up to say hello.

"Nothing to do, walking on the island, seeing martial aunt sensing heaven and earth while passing by, so I stopped to watch for a while, not expecting to disturb martial aunt."

Qiong Xiao nodded slightly, her expression cold: "Then you go elsewhere, I still need to stay here for a while."

Gu Xiu cupped his hands: "Martial aunt, then you focus on enlightenment, I won't disturb you."

After saying that, his figure flashed and disappeared in place.

When he returned to his residence, the system sounded.

"Ding!"

"Detected that Dao Xing Tianzun, because of the death of his disciple Wei Hu, is angry and is coming to the East Sea to investigate, triggering event options. Please make a choice."

"Option 1: Let Dao Xing Tianzun bully the Dragon Clan and the exotic beasts in this place, provoking the contradiction between the Dragon Clan and the Chan Sect. Reward: Ancestral Dragon Pearl!"

"Option 2: Stop Dao Xing Tianzun's evil deeds and help the Dragon Clan and the creatures of the East Sea. Reward: 100,000 Great Dao merits!"

The two options given by the system made Gu Xiu a bit difficult to choose.

The Ancestral Dragon Pearl was the supreme treasure of the Dragon Clan. Since the Ancestral Dragon swore to the Heavenly Dao to seek a glimmer of life for the Dragon Clan, he melted into the Four Seas, and the Ancestral Dragon Pearl also lost its trace with the disappearance of the Ancestral Dragon.

The second option rewarded merit.

To be honest, Gu Xiu wanted it very much.

But after thinking about it, stopping Dao Xing Tianzun, although it could gain the favor of the Dragon Clan and exotic beasts, the subsequent benefits were too few.

If he chose the first option, letting Dao Xing Tianzun and the Dragon Clan and the creatures of the East Sea become enemies, ruining Dao Xing Tianzun's reputation, thereby ruining the Chan Sect's reputation, there would be many benefits.

"System, I choose Option 1."

"Ding!"

"Selection successful."

"Mission time limit is half a month. When Dao Xing Tianzun makes a big fuss in the East Sea, bullies the Dragon Clan, and kills the creatures of the East Sea, the goal can be achieved, and the mission will be automatically completed!"

"Half a month?"

Pondered for a moment.

"The time is not long. I will wait slowly on the Three Immortals Island, go out for a walk when I am free, and wait until Dao Xing Tianzun becomes an enemy of the Dragon Clan and the creatures of the East Sea are complaining, and when the system mission is completed, I will go to preside over justice and pull a wave of favor from the Dragon Clan."

Gu Xiu thought so.

……

Palace of the Empress Wa.

Nuwa lay on the side of the gorgeous cloud couch, the Saint's rhyme flowing, and the immortal mist misty.

She was wearing a five-colored divine gauze, outlining her perfect curves.

Her slender waist was not full of a grip, and her long jade legs were half-hidden in the gauze.

Under her high-bridged nose, her cherry lips were slightly pursed.

Her eyes were closed, and she was taking a short rest.

Suddenly, a light footstep came, breaking the silence.

Jin Ning moved her lotus steps and stepped into the palace slowly.

Nuwa seemed to feel something, her beautiful eyes opened slowly, and she spoke softly.

"Jin Ning, you are back, how is the investigation?"

"Empress, the Chan Sect is indeed laying out for the Investiture of the Gods. After repeated setbacks in Zhaoge, the goal has shifted to the feudal lords in various places. Although Yang Chan conveyed your decree in Zhaoge not long ago, it is still stable, but because of the constant rebellions in various places, the Yin Shang is in turmoil, and the fortune has been losing."

Nuwa's face was very calm: "The Chan Sect is quite active, what about the Jie Sect?"

"Back to the Empress, the Jie Sect's Shangqing Saint has always let the disciples close the mountain gate and recite the Huangting Sutra quietly, waiting for the calamity to pass."

Nuwa's face was neither happy nor sad, and she couldn't see her joy or anger.

Because Gu Xiu told her before, she already knew that the Ren, Chan, and Western sects had joined forces.

She was very puzzled that Tongtian had not taken any action: "Is senior brother Tongtian so confident?"

"Forget it, anyway, I am bored, so let's see what that brat is planning."

Seeing that Nuwa didn't express anything about these things, Jin Ning said.

"Empress, there is one more thing. You sent Ling Zhuzi down to the mortal world to be reincarnated in the family of Li Jing, the general of Chen Tang Guan, but after he was born, he was taken as a disciple by Taiyi Zhenren."

Hearing this, Nuwa's face was still as calm as water, without any emotional fluctuations.

"Ling Zhuzi, born with wisdom, not practicing diligently, obsessed with the red dust, is his choice. I have already set him free. I believe the Chan Sect will find a way to break the causal connection between Ling Zhuzi and me soon."

"Empress, should we ignore it?"

Nuwa shook her head.

"I am different from the Five Saints. I obtained supreme Heavenly Dao merit through the Dao of Creation and obtained the Heavenly Dao fruit position, so I don't need to fight for any fortune."

"This is also one of the reasons why I don't need to establish a sect, while the Five Saints established a sect to become Saints, so they have been fighting and grabbing. If the fortune is not enough, not only will the orthodoxy be damaged, but they themselves may also fall from the Saint position."

Hearing this, Jin Ning smiled brightly.

"That's right, I forgot about this. The Empress is different from the Five Saints and doesn't need to fight for fortune."

Nuwa was silent for a long time, and her beautiful eyes couldn't see joy or anger.

"The teacher's integration into the Dao is about to be completed. When the Heavenly Dao, Human Dao, and Earth Dao are integrated into one, the pattern of heaven and earth will be rewritten. It will definitely be an eventful autumn."

Saying this, she sat up straight, looked up at the boundless Chaos, cast her gaze on the prehistoric land, and her eyes were slightly complicated.

"Although I have long since stopped getting involved in the world, I also hope that there will be no more great disasters in this world."

Jin Ning's expression froze, and she said: "Empress, should we make preparations in advance?"

Nuwa shook her head lightly: "Such a big event involves the teacher, and it is not something we can control. We will just pay close attention to it." ===== CHAPTER 59 =====
