Chapter 1955: The Fragment Left Behind by the Demon God War!

Actually, Fuxi did possess a spiritual root—the Chaos Gourd Vine.

The fruit borne by this Chaos Gourd Vine could enable Nüwa to attain Dao and become a Saint, but the spiritual root had not yet matured.

"Leave the Chaos Gourd Vine to me," Fuxi smiled. "Little sister, when I return, I'll pick the fruit inside for you, so you can swiftly become a Saint."

"I can go too!"

"You cannot."

Fuxi gave Nüwa no chance to respond, directly refuting her: "What you must do next concerns the very survival of the entire demon race."

"Little sister, do you want to cultivate with Luo Fu?"

Fuxi knew well that Sister Houtu and Sister Xuanming had both followed Luo Fu to cultivate; rumors said their cultivation bases had surged rapidly, and even their weapons had ascended swiftly.

If Nüwa were to cultivate beside Luo Fu, it would truly aid his path to Dao and sainthood.

More importantly, Nüwa's innate talent would surely surpass even Houtu's; the greatest difference between them is that one is of the Witch Clan, the other of the Demon Clan.

Would Luo Fu agree?

Whether he agreed or not, Fuxi intended to try; now that he knew Luo Fu had gone to Penglai Immortal Island, he was willing to make this journey on Nüwa's behalf.

"Rest assured, Brother will handle this. I'll make sure it's done right."

"Brother, take this with you."

Nüwa pulled out a scroll and handed it to Fuxi.

Fuxi glanced at the scroll and was stunned. "No, no—this is your life-saving artifact. I absolutely cannot take it."

The scroll Nüwa had produced was not the Mountain-River Society Map, but a far older fragment.

This fragment had already been used during the ancient Demon God Wars and was originally carried by Ancestor Hongjun, who later gave it to Nüwa.

Nüwa had used this fragment to protect herself and the entire Nüwa Palace.

Never had she expected that today Nüwa would hand it to him—Fuxi was utterly shocked.

"Take it."

"I face no great threat inside the Nüwa Palace; even if danger comes, the palace itself can repel it."

"But, Brother… you are different…"

Nüwa said no more. After thinking, Fuxi took the fragment—he knew well that if he refused, she would not relent and might go herself.

Whether to ease his mind or prepare for what lay ahead, he had to find a way this time.

To think of something was surely better than nothing.

Yet beyond what had already happened, they had no clear plan—most crucially, they did not yet know how much they themselves wished to uncover.

Clearly, within the Nüwa Palace, they had not foreseen what would come next.

Fuxi and Nüwa both understood the fragment's importance, but they also had to make use of it.

"I'll use it well. Go back now."

Only after Nüwa attains Dao and becomes a Saint can she secure a place for the demon race.

Whether on this side of the Purple Cloud Palace or elsewhere, they themselves still had no clear plan—but the more they acted, the more they could clarify things.

Of course, regarding the Purple Cloud Palace, they still had not seen the matter clearly.
