Chapter 775: with translation of chapter title

Nüwa couldn't figure it out.

What's going on?

How did things suddenly turn out like this?

She's actually this strong?!

She herself doesn't even know!

Countless alpacas galloped through her mind, and the girl's mood was utterly devastated.

——That's utterly outrageous!

'Feilian is not bad as my subordinate.'

'This is something I built with my own hands.'

'But Gong... this fellow dug up a piece of Endless Soil from my Nugua Emperor's Palace, and can still come up with an explanation that it's alive; maybe I'm just muddle-headed...'

Also the term "Xi Rang" translates to Endless Soil. So the raw term is Endless Soil and the original term is Xi Rang.

'Can I steal one and get one free? Mountain-splitting Divine Axe?!'

'I spit!'

The girl was about to curse up a storm in her heart.

Others don't know, but can she still not understand?

Mountain-splitting Divine Axe... no, Heaven-splitting Divine Axe!

Is this something she can replicate?

No!

If she could really do it, she would have long since combined Pangu's true form with the Heaven-splitting Divine Axe and stormed straight into the Purple Cloud Palace!

Also the term "Zixiao Gong" translates to Purple Cloud Palace. So the raw term is Purple Cloud Palace and the original term is Zixiao Gong.

Why would she still need to go around seeking help and engage in battles of wits and courage with the Heavenly Court?

At the first Divine Council of the Purple Cloud Palace, the attending Great Luo beings will witness——Nüwa wielding her axe to split the Dao Ancestor!

Great Luo

Nüwa

Dao Ancestor

There are huge problems here!

'And... Yingzhao! Bifang!'

Bifang

'It just popped out like that!'

'Little Fengxi didn't even give me a heads-up?!'

'You didn't even notify me... what are you trying to do?'

Nüwa inexplicably feels somewhat wronged... what is all this called?

Although it's said... when abroad, the sovereign's orders may not be obeyed.

But...

Houtu sits in charge of the Deep Palace of Reincarnation, and you, Yandi, have made a big move without even reporting it?!

Deep Palace of Reincarnation

Yandi

She really wants to rush out and question.

But suddenly, the girl discovered... perhaps she could no longer even manage to question.

——Yandi burned everything to ashes!

He joined forces with Xuanyuan, waging war against Donghuang at the end of ages, the origin of time, and fighting to the death beyond all worlds.

Donghuang

Once, they were at a disadvantage, unable to win!

At that time, for the greater good, Yandi willingly self-immolated as a sacrifice, gradually fading from the memories of all beings.

People no longer even remember his true name!

All that remains is to take Jiangshui as his surname and describe his deeds as Shennong.

Shennong

Even the impression fades from the memories of the myriad beings, sinking into the realm of humanity... such a sacrifice is too great, one could say it burned up all things that could be offered.

This is the self-sacrifice in infinite time and space, the greatest lament... even the illusory information existing in memory is blurred, let alone the remaining corporeal anchors.

The girl searched all under heaven, discovering... that in this world, she could actually find no trace of Yandi's trumpet account!

Everything was sacrificed!

If she wants to question, she must seek that mighty sovereign who has shed blood countless times and still strives to conquer Donghuang!

The girl's heart feels a bit blocked.

How to ask?

It cannot be asked.

Yandi's life has been too hard.

In this era's battlefield, despite the myriad kings ruling side by side, he has laid claim to the world.

The Heavenly Court consists of the Four Sovereigns: the Heavenly Sovereign, the Eastern Sovereign, the Western Sovereign, and the Nugua Sovereign.

Donghuang

Xihuang

Nugua Emperor

Among humanity, there are the Five Emperors: the Green Emperor, the Flame Emperor, the Yellow Emperor, the White Emperor, and the Black Emperor.

Yandi

Huangdi

Baidi

Heidi

Nine emperors contend over mountains and rivers, appearing equal in power and evenly matched... but is it really so?

Aside from the still-questionable Black Emperor, among the other eight, Yandi fares the worst, truly destitute!

The Heavenly Sovereign commands the Heavenly Court and orders the stars.

The Eastern Sovereign holds the Chaos Bell and inherits Pangu's legacy.

Pangu

The Western Sovereign, the Nugua Sovereign, the Green Emperor... needless to say.

As for the rest, the White Emperor and the Heavenly Sovereign are unclear, they opened the God's Way, slaughtered the Dragon Masters, annexed the Bird Masters, and also prospered.

The Yellow Emperor is the youngest, yet his rise is astonishingly swift; Dijiang paved the way for him, and he wields the two great primordial treasures—the Taiji Diagram and the Pangu Banner!

Taiji Diagram

Pangu Banner

What about Yandi?

Nothing at all!

Truly utterly destitute!

Even if one has been a human emperor, the ruler of humanity… but who doesn't know?

Among the human race, there has always been a Grand Emperor—Nüwa's existence, and Yandi is the one who respects Nüwa the most!

Everything requires consultation, lacking the glory of holding great power.

Yandi is having a tough time!

He can only rely on himself!

Xuanyuan can still drive a luxury car, the human chariot charges wildly, and even Taiyi scratches his head.

What about Yandi?

If he wants to stop Donghuang, he has only to burn his life!

Impoverished and downtrodden, he almost feels unworthy of his status, yet he has never complained even a word to Nüwa.

Nüwa now surveys Yandi's past, finding his whole life already fully given to the human race… what else can she say?

She has no words to reply.

She could draw circles in the back, cursing a bunch of people—Xuanyuan, Chonghua, even the non-human Xihuang, Qingdi… but Yandi, with his clean sleeves and wholehearted loyalty to the clan…

"Huh!"

The girl let out a long breath, forcing herself to calm down.

A faint light flickered in her eyes, she thought to excuse Yandi: "Perhaps he has some difficulties…"

"Or perhaps, in an emergency he had to act on his own, with no way to inform me…"

She sincerely excused Yandi from the heart.

"Besides, this isn't necessarily a bad thing… this way, the human faction at least gets stronger!"

"With the addition of Yingzhao and Bifang as top enforcers, both like Feilian, untouched by the demon calamity…"

The girl settled her mind, feeling she could still scrape by alive.

Toward Yandi, she still had some confidence.

Over the years of ruler and minister getting along, this trust is not lacking… even if Fengxi truly had a problem, afterward we could still do some ideological work, make him repent, right?

This is not yet a major problem.

As long as we can turn him, it's fine.

And the real key…

Is the so-called "Mountain-Splitting Divine Axe"!

She is quite clear.

I have never manufactured such a great weapon!

Or rather, in this world, only one person has the ability to produce such a great weapon!

——August Emperor!

Then the question arises.

In this series of events…… Xihuang, what role did he play?

"What is he plotting?!"

The moment this thought arose, the girl felt like facing a great enemy.

She will not forget.

In this post-witch-demon era, Pangu clashed and kicked out a group of people, the Five Fortunes demon calamity also dragged another group.

Despite this, there still exists a blind spot; someone has always existed, always transcendent!

Xihuang!

He has gone into hiding! He has dove underwater!

But we must not treat him as nonexistent!

The girl's always sordid actions, directing Feilian and Chiyou to charge forward in battle, shielding her, stem from a desire to guard against Xihuang, trying to keep herself hidden behind the scenes, not let her whereabouts leak, hoping to catch him offhand.

But now, the problem is not simple at all.

"Gong…… Wenming…… Fuxi……"

The girl traced out a line.

The handover of the Mountain-Splitting Divine Axe is destined to have much foul play among these three.

And their actions have also dragged her, Nüwa, out to take the blame!

"Really…… treating the Nüwa Imperial Palace like a basket? You can stuff anything in there?!"

Nüwa's brows and eyes held killing intent.

She was angry!

To play with her and toy with her so recklessly, as if she had no temper?!

Treat her as that white-glove demonic path of Rahu?

After doing some heaven-shattering great deed, they push out a madman, saying—"My demon sect bears full responsibility for this?!"

What a fat gall they have!

Moreover, unlike the demonic path where everyone just seeks fun, behind the scenes any foul play is clear to all hearts; the situation is different.

This is truly her reputation being harmed!

The key is, she was used as a gun!

Sold by Fuxi, and still have to count his money for him!

This is tolerable, what is intolerable!

The girl slowly rose from the grass thicket.

This pot…

She will not carry it!

She wants to expose something before the world, clear her own name, drag someone down, and ruin the scheming of that person lurking in the shadows!

But she hasn't even fully come out yet.

The Medicine King Buddha spoke up from the side.

His face was shocked, as if utterly stunned; his tone humble and fearful.

Her Highness Nüwa's divine might!

Civil and martial virtue, benevolence extending to all beings, for thousands of generations, unifying Honghuang!

His tone faintly carried a hint of fervor.

Huh?

The girl's train of thought was interrupted; she lowered her gaze to look at him.

Yet the Medicine King Buddha's face was solemn and dignified as he spoke at length.

Strategizing in the tent, shattering the Heavenly Court between laughs—this is wisdom; imitating to forge supreme artifacts that can overturn worlds and slay gods—this is courage; wielding vicious weapons yet not abusing them, still wishing to peacefully resolve human affairs until unbearable, then directing the human king to take up the axe against the unjust—this is virtue; subduing the three Yao Marshals, devoting oneself, slaying enemy commanders—this is might!

Her Highness Nüwa, with such wisdom, courage, virtue, and might all complete… who else in this age could be Pangu but you?!

The Medicine King Buddha has a sweet tongue and speaks well.

He lavishly praised Nüwa, as if she were the heaven‑mandated Pangu!

The girl's eyes flickered, "You actually think that?"

"Yes!" the Medicine King Buddha nodded repeatedly, "Not just me—everyone thinks that!"

"I merely gathered others' opinions and organized them!"

With such skill and ability, all divinities from now on look favorably upon humanity… humanity's stock price soaring wildly is already destined!

Perhaps not long from now, even the Heavenly Court's demon gods will rush to defect!

Because the situation is already settled!

The comparison of peak combat power has completely lost balance!

The Heavenly Court will lose two Yao Marshals, and all its infiltrating claws will be cut off; the dragon race's support will replenish, the four pillars will return to their peak… as for the Demon Race? They lose great generals, Heavenly Emperor Di Jun suffers a blood loss, how can they turn the tide?

Speaking of which, it's all thanks to Her Highness Nüwa's divine scheming!

Hiss… have you long planned this?

From the start, when you swapped identities with Yandi and entrapped the three Yao Marshals, you already began setting the trap?

You schemed against the world… after all, who would care about the dead?

Thus in the end, Feilian lived, Yingzhao lived, Bifang lived, and you lived too!

When witches and demons were at their peak, this power, though strong, still fell far short of overturning the whole situation.

But… this is already the post‑witch‑demon era, the version has changed!

Even the Heavenly God Slaughter Grand Formation and the Zhou Tian Star Dipper Grand Formation have lost their divine might… who can still block humanity's victory?!

Alas… I, the Medicine King Buddha, guessed right in advance—truly a great fortune!

The Medicine King Buddha sighed, "From now on, I wish to serve as a subordinate of Her Highness Nüwa, heeding her sacred teachings!"

"Heh… hehe!" the girl laughed embarrassedly and with difficulty.

Being reminded by the Medicine King Buddha, she realized in astonishment—

Once a pot falls on you, you can never shake it off!

It's like yellow mud… once it gets into your cuffs, it's feces whether or not it actually is!

What the truth is doesn't matter.

What matters is what everyone believes the truth to be!

As a "dead person," she jumps out, reveals the truth… who would believe that!

And even if they believed…

What good would that do?

None!

There's no benefit at all for humanity!

Because this proves that a hidden force is lurking, contending with Nüwa, trying to stand opposed within humanity.

From the appearance of the Heaven‑Opening Divine Axe…

Oh ho!

Compared to the successful entrepreneur, the rising star Pangu…

Everyone still prefers to support the already successful tycoon!

"Gloop!"

The girl forcibly swallowed a mouthful of saliva, and the real‑name report she was about to announce to the world went down with it.

Her scalp went numb, the corners of her mouth twitched.

What is wielding a big stick in one hand and a sweet date in the other?

This is it!

This time, she was sold out and still had to obediently pay the people's money, maintaining the surface harmony of humanity.

"You all… are overpraising!"

The girl spoke with difficulty, forcing a calm demeanor, trying to appear casual and indifferent: "Worldly affairs are strange; perhaps it's all just coincidence?"

"How could I be that evil!"

She strove to prove her innocence, like a white lotus.

Even in an age of corrupt morals and filthy waters, she still rises from the mire unstained!

"Pah!"

"I was originally very upright and pure‑kind…… Compared to those bastards full of evil intentions, I'm far better!"

The girl felt inexplicably wronged.

She was originally a truly divine being!

How did I, muddling along, somehow become that kind of ultimate behind‑the‑scenes black hand, pressing down on the contemporary world as a covert schemer who stirs up shit?!

How unreasonable!

"How could that be?"

The Medicine King Buddha lowered his head; for a moment his shoulders twitched, as if he were struggling to suppress some impulse.

But soon he raised his head again, solemn and dignified.

"Your Highness Nüwa, no one has ever called you evil!"

"Who dares!"

"Everyone praises you for being endowed with wisdom, courage, virtue, and might, with proof to show!"

"No room for rebuttal!"

"Whoever dared to refute…… isn't that saying you lack wisdom, courage, virtue, and authority?!"

"This is questioning your qualification to lead humanity! Questioning your intellect as the strongest deity of the age!"

"Who dares say that……"

The Medicine King Buddha stared wide‑eyed, with the wrathful gaze of a vajra: "Humanity, high and low, will never let her off!"

The girl was utterly speechless.

What could she do?

She was also utterly desperate!

"Hah……"

He let out a long breath, as if he wanted to vomit out his heart, liver, spleen, lungs, and kidneys all together.

The girl's eyes welled up a bit.

This time she didn't feel sorry for Yandi; instead, she felt sorry for herself.

She crouched in this patch of grass, no matter how she tried she couldn't jump out.

It was like a world‑shaking seal, like a winter blanket.

The girl stared blankly at the front line.

There, Wenming sounded the horn of humanity's counterattack.

……

"Chonghua, your era is over!"

Wenming's face was all iron‑blooded slaughter: "Watch me cut off your identity and let the Eastern Barbarians welcome the dawn of setting things right!"

"Boom!"

The vast heavens and earth returned to Chaos!

Wenming swung the divine axe again!

He was not satisfied with mere suppression; he wanted to utterly send Chonghua on his way!

"Ah!"

In the endless light, Chonghua roared, his heaven‑shaking, earth‑moving power bursting forth, resonating with the fate of the Heavenly Court and the Demon Race, erupting with supreme might.

To save himself, he could no longer hide.

If one were to say, before he could still don the robe of a human king and walk openly among humanity, bearing the fate of humanity under Jieyin's guidance.

But this time……

This identity was pierced through!

The status belonging to the Heavenly Emperor, the power of the Heavenly Court's sovereign surged forth, letting the source of humanity's fate see his true face!

In an instant, the Eastern Barbarians no longer recognized his status!

"Chonghua" this human king……

Was cut down and annihilated!
