Chapter 34
Nüwa Great Saint, she is perfect and flawless.
Honghuang heaven and earth renowned supreme mighty one, its fame and title spread throughout ancient and present future, Myriad Heavens spacetime's supreme divine being.
The more obvious change is——when the two characters 'Nüwa' are spoken from Thus line: "Di Jiang Zu Wu's mouth, those little Wu soldiers in the honor guard all become reverent, looking with utmost reverence at the divine being standing proudly on the phoenix.
They were once all humans, so facing the creator of humanity, how could they not revere and respect?
No one would give rise to an improper blasphemous thought.
Including Fengxi, it is the same.
Even now, he dons the Wu Clan's exterior, yet still cannot forget his original intention, cannot deny his past.
He followed along with hundreds of thousands of little Wu, offering reverent gaze to Nüwa Great Saint.
But soon, a small mishap occurred—a scorching gaze fixed on him, distracting Fengxi's mind.
Fengxi sensed it and grasped the source—it was that golden phoenix bearing Nüwa Great Saint.
It kept blinking its eyes, inside harboring great curiosity. One side looking at Fengxi, the other side looking at the true dragon he commanded, it tilted its head.
The doubt in the phoenix's eyes almost condensed into substance—with such weak cultivation, can't even pull a true dragon's toe, why is he qualified to be the charioteer?
This gaze mixed with curiosity and doubt, like needles, pricked Fengxi's spirit, making him feel uneasy all over.
"My strength is a bit lacking……but what of it?"
"In the future I will not fail to become stronger; why look at me with the eyes that look down on a weak chicken?"
Fengxi's mouth corner twitched, he gave a covert glare—
"What are you looking at?"
The phoenix received the information from his gaze, its eyes instantly widened, the whole phoenix became a bit more lively—if not hindered by its duty, it would likely come over to reason with Fengxi.
Even so, he did not give up; a pair of phoenix eyes flashed and glared back at Fengxi.
"What are you gonna do about it?!"
One Wu, one phoenix, each widened their eyes, hoping to crush the opponent's spirit with their gaze, causing them to collapse without fighting.
But compared to the secret rivalry among their respective subordinates, Thus line: "Di Jiang Zu Wu and Nüwa Great Saint have eased up too much.
Even though one is a commander of the Wu Clan, the other is the Supreme Emperor sovereign of the Demon Race.
But as long as they don't meet blades on the battlefield, at other times they won't be tense.
Moreover, Di Jiang also gave a little praise.
Nüwa Great Saint accepted the ancestral witch's praise word for word, without a shred of modesty—after all, Di Jiang's words hit her heart—she indeed thought so!
Since it's seeking truth from facts, why feign modesty?
"Di Jiang Dao friend, you are not bad either." The cheerful Nüwa Great Saint replied with a smiling countenance, "In the present world, how many years have passed? And you have reached this point."
"The Wu Clan is the orthodox lineage of Pangu the Great God; indeed the reputation is not undeserved!"
The two mighty beings are currently engaging in mutual boasting.
Although not compared openly, as the boasting goes, one already could punch the Heavenly Dao and kick Hongjun; the other could stand shoulder to shoulder with Pangu, discussing Dao and fighting.
"Cough cough!"
A light cough sounded, inserted here, interrupting the two's conversation.
It was Houtu.
This ancestral witch could no longer bear to listen, had to speak out to give a reminder or even stop.
"Alas." Nüwa Great Saint, still wanting to continue, shifted the topic: "Di Jiang, Houtu, you two ancestral witches, what is the purpose of your journey?"
"Can we roughly discuss? If not, I can help a bit." She observed his expression, seeing Thus line: "Di Jiang Zu Wu's slightly odd look, and said thoughtfully, "Of course, if it involves secrets, then just pretend I never asked."
"Haha!" Di Jiang laughed heartily, "We ancestral witches act openly and aboveboard; what is there that cannot be mentioned to outsiders?"
"Since Nüwa Dao friend is curious, telling you is fine." Di Jiang became solemn, "In fact, our first purpose on this journey…… is precisely you Dao friend and your elder brother!"
"Therefore, Dao friend mentioning our purpose makes me somewhat uneasy to speak plainly."
"I also didn't expect——such a coincidence, making us meet on the road."
"Oh?" Nüwa Great Saint's tone instantly became solemn, no longer the previous casualness and relaxation, "You came to find us? For what?"
"Of course it is to establish an alliance, mutual aid, and cooperation." Di Jiang said.
"Di Jiang, although we are currently enjoying our talk, we cannot change the opposing stance of the Wu and demon sides." Nüwa said solemnly, "You are an ancestral witch, I am the demon sovereign…… one day we will meet on the battlefield, blood battle, fight to the death."
"What then?" Thus line: "Di Jiang Zu Wu laughed, he did not worry or feel gloomy because of Nüwa's words, "Indeed, Nüwa Dao friend, in the Demon Race camp, holds a sovereign position, honored as the Nüwa sovereign."
"But, how is that?" Di Jiang talked and laughed calmly, "Nüwa is Nüwa, the Nüwa sovereign is the Nüwa sovereign…… can the Nüwa sovereign represent the entirety of Nüwa Dao friend's life?"
"You are an innate divine being, not those essences and qi that have proliferated and transformed into sprite spirits."
"The two are not of the same kind…… Dao friend, why bind your whole self over a single position, wholeheartedly serving the Demon Race, fearless of risk, unafraid of death in battle?"
"If that is the case, forgive me for saying something rather presumptuous." Di Jiang's mouth corner curled, "After all, is it Nüwa Dao friend you who, as the Demon Race's sovereign and master, drives the demons to work for you; or is it the Demon Race that is your master, driving you to fight to the death?"
"Master and servant exchange places, master is not master, servant is not servant…… this is calamity, not blessing!" He said with deep meaning.
Thus line: "Di Jiang Zu Wu, skilled in speech, versed in debate, is actually trying to win over Nüwa.
His words caused Nüwa to fall into deep thought. On one hand she felt it made sense, on the other hand she also felt…… something seemed off.
After a long silence, she suddenly realized——
Why did she join the Demon Race's camp?
It was because others gave her money!
On the sun star, Di Jun and Taiyi once voluntarily visited Phoenix Nest Mountain.
Offering astronomical pay, they sincerely invited Fuxi and Nüwa, two supremely strong innate divine beings, to join the Demon Race's entrepreneurial venture.
Now, the treaty has just been signed, not long after receiving the deposit, Thus line: "Di Jiang Zu Wu came to poach the corner……
She, Nüwa, possesses the most sincere and noble character of a divine being; how could she be so easily won over to defect, breaking the contract she signed with the Demon Race camp?
Is she that kind of greedy, faithless deity?!
Not to speak of being loyal and unchanging, at least one shouldn't be as changeable as flowing water, right?
Upon thinking this through, Nüwa instantly firmed her stance, straightened her attitude, her expression dark with anger and dissatisfaction: "Emperor Jiang, Dao friend, are you questioning my honest and trustworthy character?"
