Chapter 8

Wa Palace.

Nuwa leaned slightly, sitting on the throne, one hand gently resting on her temple, closing her eyes slightly, as if resting.

Suddenly, a thought stirred, and she felt that in a human tribe in the mortal world.

Someone was praying to the Nuwa statue.

The person praying seemed to have a trace of causal connection with her.

Her moth-like eyebrows furrowed slightly, her eyes half-closed, and her jade hand waved upward, displaying the situation in front of the statue in the Shi tribe.

Seeing Gu Xiu's figure, a strange look flashed in Nuwa's eyes.

"So it's this junior. I was able to know I was schemed against thanks to him. I don't know what he is looking for me for?"

After pondering for a moment, Nuwa decided to bring Gu Xiu to the Wa Palace.

Shi tribe.

Gu Xiu was bowing and requesting to see Nuwa, saying he had important matters to inform her of.

Seeing that the statue had no reaction, he thought Nuwa hadn't heard.

He wanted to say it again.

Then he saw the Nuwa statue bloom with golden light, shining brightly.

The originally solidified eyes of the statue became bright and spirited, as if they had life.

When the people of the Shi tribe saw this, they were overjoyed.

"The Holy Mother has manifested!"

"The Holy Mother has manifested!"

"May the Holy Mother bless us!"

"The Holy Mother has responded to us!"

They knelt on the ground one after another, praying piously.

At the same time, a mysterious giant hand reached out from the void and grabbed Gu Xiu into it.

Originally in the Shi tribe, in the blink of an eye, he appeared in a magnificent and golden hall. Gu Xiu was stunned.

Following that, he looked upward.

Nuwa was lazily half-lying on the throne, one jade arm lightly raised to support her head, the gauze on her body fluttering lightly, her figure graceful, and her curves beautiful.

Gu Xiu hurriedly stepped forward and bowed: "I, Gu Xiu, pay my respects to Lady Nuwa."

Nuwa raised her eyes slightly, and her gaze fell on Gu Xiu like water.

"This Emperor owes you a favor for the last time, so what is the matter you are looking for me for? As long as it is within my power, I can promise you."

"I do have one thing I want to tell Lady Nuwa."

Gu Xiu didn't talk nonsense and stated his purpose for coming here.

Hearing this, Nuwa moved her body lightly, the gauze fluttering with it, and the curves of her waist were displayed just right, making her even more graceful.

"You said the Chan Sect intends to send the three demons of Xuanyuan Tomb to Zhaoge to disrupt the imperial court, and you want me to summon them now to use a counter-scheme against the Chan Sect?"

Gu Xiu nodded: "Yes, Lady Nuwa, you heard me right."

Nuwa's moth-like eyebrows furrowed slightly, she thought for a while, and her red lips parted slightly: "Although there is a hidden story behind Di Xin's poem, the poem is a fact after all, so this Emperor must punish him."

"The three demons have been cultivating in Xuanyuan Tomb for thousands of years and have been stained with Xuanyuan's aura. The Chan Sect may indeed use this point. Daring to scheme against this Emperor, I will definitely not let the Chan Sect have their way, but using the Demon-Summoning Banner to summon all the demons in the world will surely be perceived. I will catch the three demons myself."

After speaking, Nuwa sat up slightly, stood up, and waved her jade hand, using Saint means to reach into the void and grab the three demons of Xuanyuan Tomb.

The three demons only felt the world spinning. When they saw the surrounding things clearly and the person in front of them was actually Nuwa, they were so scared that they knelt down and kowtowed.

"The small demons pay respects to Lady Nuwa, wishing Lady Nuwa a long life!"

Looking at the three demons kneeling on the ground, Nuwa said lightly: "This Emperor summoned you here because there is something for you to do. The Investiture of the Gods of the three sects is approaching. Before long, a Saint may come to find you three demons and let you go to Zhaoge to disrupt the imperial court. You pretend to agree. When you arrive at Zhaoge, you don't need to do anything, and you must not harm anyone. If Di Xin is confused and ignores the government, you must let him hold court and listen to the opinions of the ministers. After the Investiture of the Gods ends, this Emperor will reward you heavily and allow you to cultivate in the Wa Palace. Of course, if you violate this Emperor's words, this Emperor will never spare you."

The three demons were terrified: "Lady, rest assured, the small demons will definitely follow the Lady's orders."

Nuwa nodded slightly: "This Emperor will send you back to Xuanyuan Tomb now, and you will wait there for that Saint to arrive."

Following that, Nuwa used Saint means again to send the three demons back.

Gu Xiu watched the whole process, and the system sounded a prompt.

"Ding!"

"Successfully met Nuwa, mission to use a counter-scheme against the Chan Sect completed. Congratulations to the Host for obtaining a seed of the Chaos Green Lotus!"

Seeing the mission completed and the seed of the Chaos Green Lotus in hand, Gu Xiu was overjoyed.

Chaos Lotus Seed, this was the seed of the Chaos Green Lotus.

If one knew that the Chaos Green Lotus was destroyed because it couldn't bear the resistance of the sky, it turned into the Thirty-Six Grade Creation Green Lotus.

Several seeds were also scattered in various places, among which three mature seeds turned into the Merit Golden Lotus, the Karma Fire Golden Lotus, and the World-Ending Black Lotus, and the remaining immature seed was missing.

He now had a seed of the Chaos Green Lotus, which was equivalent to the value of a lotus platform.

If swallowed directly, it could not only improve cultivation but also change the physique.

Although it was a bit wasteful, he already had the World-Ending Black Lotus, and his urgent goal now was to improve his cultivation and strength. This Chaos Green Lotus seed came at just the right time.

Next, Nuwa also sent Gu Xiu back to the Shi tribe.

When the people of the Shi tribe saw Gu Xiu suddenly appear, they knelt down again.

"Pay respects to the Holy Teacher!"

"Holy Teacher?" Gu Xiu was puzzled. When did he become a Holy Teacher?

"Yes, Holy Teacher, you were received by the Holy Mother, so you are the Holy Teacher of our human clan."

Gu Xiu was a bit speechless and explained.

"Patriarch, I am not a Holy Teacher. There is another reason why Lady Nuwa met me, but this time I have formed some karma with the Shi tribe, and I will repay this karma another day."

Gu Xiu didn't stay too long, his figure turned into a stream of light and disappeared, returning to Three Immortals Island.

At the same time.

Somewhere in the Primordial world.

Master Yuding originally saw that the time was right and came out, wanting to take Yang Jian into his sect.

As a result, he arrived at the place he had predicted in advance, but he didn't see Yang Jian at all.

Pinching his fingers to calculate, he found that Yang Jian was in the East Sea, and his brows furrowed.

"How could Yang Jian be in the East Sea? With Yang Jian's current ability, he shouldn't be able to reach the East Sea."

"However, the East Sea is the territory of the Jie Sect. Could it be that he was kidnapped by the Jie Sect?"

Thinking of this, Master Yuding's eyes were full of disdain.

"A group of creatures with fur and horns, daring to snatch my disciple, is really courting death!"

Saying that, he headed toward the East Sea.

Mount Kunlun.

Jade Void Palace.

Taiqing, Yuanshi, Jieyin, and Zhunti gathered together.

Yuanshi spoke slowly.

"Currently, Nuwa already knows that we are scheming against her, which has caused changes in the original plan. The three demons of Xuanyuan Tomb were not sent to Zhaoge by Nuwa as expected. What should we do now?"

Jieyin and Zhunti looked sad and full of grief.

"Senior brother Yuanshi, the Investiture of the Gods is a matter of your three sects. Our Western Sect assisted you and lost Maitreya's life for this. We will temporarily not participate in this matter."

Taiqing Laozi frowned slightly: "I have always been unable to figure out that we worked together to conceal the heavenly secrets. Nuwa shouldn't have been able to discover it. Who leaked the secret to Nuwa?"

"Could it be Tong Tian?" Jieyin and Zhunti also couldn't think of Maitreya making trouble at the Nuwa Temple being recorded and handed to Nuwa.

Thinking about it, Tong Tian was the most suspicious.

Taiqing Laozi shook his head.

"It shouldn't be. Tong Tian doesn't have that much city. If he knew that we were united to deal with him, he would have already come to the door, and wouldn't be so calm."

Yuanshi also frowned. Tong Tian was indeed a hot-headed person with no city.

He spoke slowly.

"Nuwa did not send the three demons of Xuanyuan Tomb to disrupt Zhaoge, making the original direction of things unknown. If there are no three demons disrupting the Yin-Shang, first consuming a part of the fortune, it is very difficult for us to be sure to win the Jie Sect in the Investiture of the Gods."

Yuanshi Tianzun felt irritable in his heart.

The Twelve Golden Immortals were involved in the killing calamity. If the Investiture of the Gods failed, and he couldn't use the lives of the Jie Sect disciples to complete the killing calamity for the Twelve Golden Immortals, the robbery energy on his precious disciples would be too heavy, and they might lose their minds, become crazy, and find it difficult to escape the fate of falling.

Taiqing Laozi's mood was quite indifferent.

He only had one disciple, and the disciple had no killing calamity on him. The Ren Sect participated in the Investiture of the Gods purely because it was dragged down by the Chan Sect. In the calamity, as long as he took action, he would definitely be able to protect his disciple.

After pondering for a moment, he said.

"Why don't we send the three demons over?"

Yuanshi Tianzun thought: "That's the only way."

Then he looked at Jieyin and Zhunti.

Jieyin and Zhunti seemed to know Yuanshi's thoughts and looked miserable.

"Senior brother Yuanshi, we don't want to participate in the Investiture of the Gods for the time being. As for the three demons, your Chan Sect can only find a way yourself."

Yuanshi Tianzun was arrogant and naturally hated creatures with fur and horns.

Seeing that the Jie Sect was the number one sect in the Primordial world, it was as if there was a thorn in his heart. For this reason, he did not hesitate to unite the four Saints, wanting to use the Investiture of the Gods to completely destroy the Jie Sect.

Now letting him go to find the three demons of Xuanyuan Tomb, it was really difficult to lower his face.

He had to look at Taiqing Laozi: "Big Brother, why don't you..."

Taiqing was such a shrewd person, he naturally wouldn't let himself do such a thing that might leave evidence.

"Second Brother, I am refining pills in the pill furnace when I came, and I can't get away."

Seeing Taiqing refuse, Yuanshi Tianzun couldn't say anything more.

Thinking about it, for the sake of the Twelve Golden Immortals, he went all out.

"Forget it, let me find the three demons of Xuanyuan Tomb, give them some promises, let them go to Zhaoge to confuse Di Xin, disrupt the imperial court, reduce the fortune of the Yin-Shang, and let things return to our plan."
