Chapter 869: Grand Finale (Part 1)

~14 min read 2,682 words

Nüwa had floated away!

She swelled!

Proud and lofty, she looked down on Fuxi.

She was so smug she couldn't be more smug; in an instant, all the hardship and fatigue from the Necromancer Epoch's journey vanished, she instantly revived with full health, all sorrow became past, a breeze blew and it dissipated into nothing.

On this basis, she shouted out the feelings she'd held for countless years; for the first time in her life she spoke loudly before Fuxi, uttering the most rude demand.

Of course!

She herself perhaps doesn't think so.

——Old lady, having gone through ninety-nine eighty-one trials, finally became a family head who can do wrong; isn't it alright for me to be proud?!

What rules!

What seniority!

Change!

All must change!

From today onward, in the household… I decide!

"Quick!"

"Call sister!"

She made this demand, her aura overwhelming.

And corresponding to that, was Fuxi's silence.

This ancient holy leader, silent and speechless, his face tense, brows furrowed, his invisible great dignity made Chaos tremble and ages lose voice.

It was as if facing an unequal treaty, challenging one's nerves.

But, the rule of conceding defeat, which he had advocated fairness his whole life, made it hard for him to suddenly turn face, to do a flip like flipping a book.

No matter how Nüwa managed it… but this battle, Nüwa won in strength!

Beating Fuxi so he raised a cease‑fire flag, he couldn't even raise the desire to fight.

Even if there are many subtleties behind this, perhaps it's the left‑right sway of the Erwu Zai assisting Nüwa; but, being able to get the Erwu Zai to support, isn't that precisely because Nüwa herself also has unique personal charm?

If it were someone else, could they reach this point?

Horizontal and vertical alliances, the weak resist the strong… losing is losing, no need to constantly look for excuses.

Fuxi's status was truly shaken by Nüwa; this is an undeniable fact.

Even if Nüwa up to now has only won this once.

And before, Fuxi had won against her ten thousand times.

But, the myth has been broken.

Should we concede defeat?

Fuxi's gaze shifted, his heart seemed to have already cursed someone to be drenched in dog blood.

But finally…

He put on a stern face, showing a sad, painful expression of having lost his sister, speaking in an emotionless tone as he calmly narrated.

"Sister."

"Eh!"

In an instant, Nüwa responded with a sound, her face full of smile, her eyebrows almost flying up, vividly illustrating what 'eyebrows flying, color dancing' means.

She seemed to have eaten a ginseng fruit; pores all over her body comfortably opened, exhaling the old and inhaling the new, sweeping away all past mental pressure, the whole person sublimated!

"Good!"

"Call sister again!"

She is not satisfied, again making this demand.

"Sister good." Fuxi, like an unfeeling reciting machine, repeated the previous tone.

But compared to that, it's also slightly different.

The tension in his expression faded, returning to light wind and calm clouds, as if he had suddenly let go of something.

——A true man can bend and stretch; for now let's tolerate her a moment!

——Thirty years west of the Heavenly River, thirty years east, do not bully a temporary poverty!

——A temporary failure is nothing; I, Fuxi, will tolerate her a moment, wait for the next version to regain the stage, then she'll have something to look at!

He thought of the wonderful point, his eyebrows twitched, and relaxed.

——She (Nüwa) slandered me, deceived me, insulted me, laughed at me, looked down on me, belittled me, hated me, cheated me; how should I deal with her?

——One should endure her, let her, follow her, avoid her, tolerate her, respect her, ignore her; after a few years go see her, her self‑made evil cannot survive!

Eastern world, Medicine Buddha, momentarily enlightened, mind peaceful, attitude calm.

Fuxi let go of thoughts of victory/defeat, decided to be able to pick up and put down, leading by example, giving Nüwa a final lesson, conceding defeat, sitting properly.

Fair.

Or still damn fair!

But…

The floating Nüwa… where would she just stop when seeing good?

She pushed forward, again making a small request.

"This isn't quite right." She laughed a while, then put on a stern face, feigning dignity, "Your two cries of 'sister' are unwilling, lacking any feeling."

"It's as if I oppressed you…… later when you go out and about, outsiders who don't know will still think I bullied you!"

"How can this work?"

"So……"

Your voice must be loud!

Feelings must be abundant!

Do you understand?

You must have genuine feeling!

You should adopt a reciting attitude, sincerely feel gratitude, feel gratitude for your sister Nüwa's past support of your career; she is your great benefactor in life!

……

Nüwa chattered on, giving instructions to Fuxi.

Is this over?

No!

Nüwa, madam, after great difficulty became the head of the household; she can be said to have struggled through two eras!

Only today did she barely manage to rise above…… How many years of repression, not to be released?

She made major revisions to the family rules; besides the requirements on titles, there were also other aspects of rules……

For example, at meals, Nüwa, madam, moves her chopsticks first; only then can Fuxi, little brother, follow and start eating; and when Nüwa finishes eating, regardless of the situation, Fuxi must immediately stop eating.

In daily outings, Nüwa must walk ahead; Fuxi needs to fall half a step behind.

On holidays and festivals, Fuxi needs to prepare grand gifts for Nüwa, sincerely congratulating Nüwa, lady, on her civil and martial virtue——As for how many days this festival has? Not many, not many; aside from her birthday, a year has three hundred sixty-five days, but it's only three hundred sixty-four festival days.

Morning greetings, evening inquiries…… This too cannot be lacking!

Nüwa counted off on her fingers, listing the new era's household rules for Fuxi.

The harmfulness is not high.

The offensiveness is extremely strong.

Listening and listening, Fuxi's face showed no expression, but his hands clenched into fists, gripped tightly, veins bulging.

The sect leader of the Eastern Pure Glazed Glass World, who had already become a Buddha, at this moment directly turned into a demon…… Even Buddhas have fire!

Can a true man bend and stretch?

Damn it!

——A true man born between heaven and earth, how can he remain depressed and subordinate to others long?!

——Jade may be shattered but its whiteness cannot be changed; bamboo may be burned but its integrity cannot be destroyed!

——Laozi has rebelled!

What is this? What gave you such courage?!

Wait until Nüwa says she's tired, then Fuxi slowly says, 'I call you sister, but only because you've endured hardships these years without giving up; I sympathize with your difficulties, so I'm willing to respect you as sister.'

Just giving you a little red flower, that's all.

But do you really think you can climb onto my head and wield power and authority?

Huh? Nüwa widened her eyes, aura fierce, "How? Do you intend to not submit?"

Yes! I just won't submit! Fuxi smiled lightly, "How? Is it not allowed?!"

Could it be that only you, Nüwa, are allowed to set fire, but I, Fuxi, am not allowed to light a lamp?

For all these years, you've been thinking of rebelling to rise above, overthrowing the superior…… I've endured it.

Even now, it's your turn to endure!

I call you sister, that's just lip service…… But do you sincerely submit? You're still not qualified.

These years you've brought me trouble; now I'll return it all!

Fuxi flicked his sleeve, 'I declare, I will rebel, and drive you from the head's throne!'

He simply rebelled!

You! You! You! Nüwa widened both eyes, "How unreasonable!"

Fuxi raised his head, looking at her with his chin, 'How's that?'

Dissatisfied?

Angry?

Come hit me!

Too bad, you can't hit me!

This is different from back then…… Back then I had become Pangu, you hadn't become Pangu; you dare to jump about, I could press you to the ground with one hand and rub you.

And now?

Yes.

I can't beat you.

But I don't want to fight you…… What can you do!

Xiao Wa! The times have changed!

You just told me that even if I were Pangu, I'm not omnipotent, unable to suppress you forever; eventually there will be a day I capsize.

Well, I'll now reply to you——

Your brother…… will always be your brother!

You've become Pangu, yet you're still not omnipotent!

If you make me angry, I'll raise the banner and rebel, overthrowing you, the head of the Feng family!

I'll also write a proclamation, to condemn your tyranny within the clan and overthrow your rule!

Fuxi looked proudly at Nüwa, 'I now give you a chance to regret…… As long as you acknowledge that Nüwa and Fuxi share the world, I can still satisfy you a little pride before others, and call you sister.'

But if you want to go further, that will be heaven overturning and earth sinking, and you will fall from the divine altar!

Do you want to see my expression? Then what's the point of me being your sister?! Nüwa's voice excited, "All those years of me lowering myself, wasn't that for nothing?!"

"Isn't it just given for free?" Fuxi replied in a light tone, "Nüwa! This is fate!"

"I won't accept it!" Nüwa rolled up her sleeves, about to give Fuxi a long lesson.

But just as Fuxi said.

— Exactly, I can't beat you.

— But why should I fight you?

Damn it!

Nüwa was angry.

In her fury, her little brain spun rapidly, and suddenly she revealed a cold smile.

That smile made Fuxi feel a chill run down his spine.

"I can't handle your Pangu true form, but can't I handle your other trumpets?" she sneered, "You don't want to fight me, so I can't do anything to you? What a joke!"

Fists are the only way to defend dignity!

I almost let you bluff me!

You may obey me outwardly but not in your heart, sister... does that matter?

As long as the world thinks you are my obedient, good younger brother... that's enough!

If you're not convinced, you can come find me to reason!

Do you dare!

She waved her hand, directly drawing out a brilliant true-spirit imprint from the body of the fallen chaos demon god August Emperor!

Nüwa treasured and stored it away, without even a glance at the shouting, rebellious Fuxi, and turned to leave.

As she walked, she muttered complacently.

Rounding off, you still fell into my hands...

When I go back, I will arrange your reincarnation, keeping it under my control...

Wahahaha... How many years? How many years of arduous struggle?

I have finally succeeded in turning the tables! I overthrew the tyrannical rule of my wicked elder brother, and can return all the suffering endured over the ages!

Let me think, how should I handle this well?

She hummed a little tune, her mood exploding with joy, the lingering echo resonating through the ages—

The dark cell, kneeling on durians... wahahaha!

Elder brother, elder brother, just enjoy yourself properly!

Nüwa's actions left Fuxi stunned.

He jumped up, wanting to stop her... but at this moment, Nüwa's combat power was ferocious, and in a one-on-one she was absolutely invincible!

If Fuxi could reason with fists, would he still have shouted those two 'sister'?

Precisely because he can't beat her!

Fuxi watched Nüwa's retreating back, his heart suddenly turning cold.

At this moment, even though he was the supreme ancestor of the Yi Dao, he could not foresee the future.

No...

Perhaps, it's not that he cannot foresee.

but that he does not wish to foresee.

As the family's big shot, being unable to rein in his own sister, letting her tear off the roof tiles... stepping out like this, it's hard not to be mocked by those like Morality, Primordial, and Di Jun.

— One day, an era ended and another began; as the August Emperor Heavenly Emperor left the the Zixiao Palace, all the Pangu who had come to discuss the Honghuang situation looked at him and laughed... some even shouted, 'August Emperor, your status at home has dropped again!'

August Emperor did not reply, merely pointing out the Honghuang situation to himself: 'The previous ten-thousand-year plan was completed successfully; the new strategy will commence, the Honghuang world must re-establish order, and evolve the human way...'

Speaking, he then took out a stack of plans to submit.

But those Pangu paid no heed—what's work compared to interesting gossip? They exclaimed excitedly, 'Fuxi, you can't even control your sister... Nüwa is rebelling again!'

August Emperor widened his eyes and glared angrily, 'How can you spread rumors about others' family affairs?'

What does spreading rumors mean? I personally saw you being harmed by Nüwa before...

Fuxi's face instantly flushed, veins bulging on his forehead as he argued, 'Matters between siblings... can that be considered harm?'

Then followed a long string of remarks—'I indulge her', 'Seeing her toil for years to rebel is no easy feat, letting her have her way once'—which made the Pangu who had brothers and sisters laugh, and the hall of the the Zixiao Palace instantly filled with a cheerful atmosphere.

……

Hiss!

Fuxi sucked in a breath of cold air, feeling a chill run through his whole body.

Such a future must be stopped!

You've forced me to this point!

He clenched his fists and murmured, 'Nüwa! If you dare do this, don't blame me for striking without martial virtue!'

Whose Pangu achievement are you holding hostage?

Do you think I can't break it?

He muttered sullenly, 'That little brat... did he really fall, or is he just putting on a show for me?'

Forget it!

First put him on the list, deal with him later, now...

The August Emperor Heavenly Emperor's gaze dimmed as he looked at the corpse from which Nüwa had taken the true spirit, letting out a long sigh.

Let it return to heaven and earth!

He flung that corpse aside, yet turned the page of the era, truly ushering in the brilliance of the Honghuang age.

A single Pangu's heavyweight battle form accomplished all things in the universe.

Inhaling and exhaling, breath became wind and clouds, arising and fading, flowing through the world.

The past's voice roared, shaking the thunder.

The eyes evolved to the extremes of yin and yang, imprinting the law; one became the great sun, the other the divine moon. Their light will shine upon all heavens and all origins, radiating through eternity, casting true projections that nourish life.

Blood flows like rivers, lakes, and seas; the meridians and channels are the hidden earth's veins and water's veins that circulate creation.

Muscles and bones may turn into earth or mountains, boundless, nourishing all spirits.

Finally, even a remnant soul becomes a flame between heaven and earth, a flame of spirit, igniting the fire of sentient beings' self-awareness in boundless time!

History is unfolding; it is the past, the present, and also the future.

However, within this, there is some subtlety.

Haotian is the fruit condensed from the future Honghuang, and in past ages it transformed Honghuang—done by Pangu's own hand, thus placing a pawn in the Human Dao.

"Xiao Erwu Zai!"

Fuxi did all this, gnashing his teeth, "Human Dao!"

"Whether you're truly stupid or pretending!"

"Get moving, all of you!"

In the vast flood of blue history, the Human Dao…… moved!

"Ah!"

"I've actually been schemed against!"

"Big Brother Fuxi!"

"Listen to my explanation! This really isn't my fault!"

Finally……

Fengxi, arriving late.

……

"We today, are truly, truly happy……"

Lady Nüwa was on her way home.

She was full of vigor, looking down upon the world, walking with wind.

"Lady, wait for me!"

When she reached her doorstep, she was called to a stop.

Yangmei Daxian, panting, had sprinted all the way, barely managing to catch up to her pace.
