Chapter 54: Is This Still Our Ancestral Witch?

"Ancestral Witch? This..." Houyi stepped forward quickly, his eyes full of confusion.

Although the Father God's will was thick here and there were many benefits to combing the Earth Vein, they still felt a great deal of resentment toward Tian Yuan in their hearts.

After capturing them, he had thrown them here roughly.

Houyi admitted that Tian Yuan did indeed have some methods, but one day, the Ancestral Witch would surely find this place.

No matter how remarkable the stone man was, he would not be a match for an Ancestral Witch.

Who would have thought that after Ancestral Witch Houtu appeared, this would be the scene? Could it be that Houtu had really lost to the stone man? Even an Ancestral Witch had been captured? The Wu Clan did not respect the Earth, did not worship Heaven, and only honored Pangu.

Even if defeated, they would not submit; how could the Ancestral Witch be like this?

As for Hongjun becoming a Saint in the Purple Heaven Palace, they only felt wary, not any respect.

This stone man had previously been capturing their clansmen everywhere, yet now he was to be honored as a senior? Houyi stared blankly at Houtu, truly unable to understand in his heart.

Houtu did not reply, looking at Houyi with indifferent eyes; under the suppression of bloodline power, he lowered his head.

The Great Witches like Kuafu on the side also hung their heads one by one, looking at the ground.

They knew very well that if they kept asking, a sound beating would surely be inevitable.

The Wu Clan only ever reasoned with their fists! Tian Yuan swept his gaze over Kuafu and the others, then looked at Houtu: "Fellow Daoist! What about the other Ancestral Witches?"

His cultivation was not weak now, and coupled with his affirmation of Houtu's character, Tian Yuan did not mind sending her out.

Houtu ignored Houyi and the others, slowly extending her right hand, and suddenly, a dark red blood drop rose in her palm.

It was the size of a soybean, vibrating slightly in the air like a heart.

The Malevolent Qi in the blood rolled, with lightning flickering, containing terrifying energy.

"Fellow Daoist, this is a drop of my Essence Blood; if you take it, my brothers will naturally understand." Houtu raised her right hand, and that drop of fresh blood slowly flew toward Tian Yuan.

If this drop of Essence Blood was useless, she feared that even if she went herself, she would be powerless.

Moreover, after entering this Consciousness Space, she felt a faint resonance.

That resonance from an unknown place made Houtu vaguely feel that it concerned the future of the entire Wu Clan.

Houtu actually did not intend to go out; it seemed she was also not confident in persuading the other Ancestral Witches. Tian Yuan did not pay much attention to this; it was already within his expectations.

It was just a notification, so there was no need to take out a drop of life-bound Essence Blood.

Tian Yuan, a trace of doubt flashing in his eyes, nodded gently and solemnly put away the drop of Essence Blood.

Perhaps, this represented Houtu's firm choice!

As for going to the Pangu Temple alone, Tian Yuan had no fear.

The Pangu Temple was right next to Mount Buzhou, and besides, his strength was not weak now; if the Ancestral Witches did not play by the rules, he could turn around and escape into Mount Buzhou.

Tian Yuan did not say much, his figure disappearing directly into the Earth Vein.

Houtu's faint resonance with the Earth Vein clearly meant she already understood the mission of the Wu Clan.

Besides, he was powerless regarding the Primordial World, but this was the Mount Buzhou will space; there was no need to worry about Houtu at all.

Seeing Tian Yuan disappear, Houyi and the others hurriedly stepped forward.

"Greetings, Ancestral Witch!"

On their hanging faces, there was still thick shock.

It was not just because Houtu had taken out a drop of Essence Blood, but also because of her calling him 'Fellow Daoist'.

If it were someone recognized, a 'Fellow Daoist' would suffice; clearly, their Ancestral Witch also respected Tian Yuan.

Houtu scanned Houyi and the others, speaking indifferently: "Why haven't you gone to comb the Earth Vein yet?"

???? Houyi and the others raised their heads, their mouths wide open.

Was this still their Ancestral Witch? Meeting Houtu's gaze, Houyi and the others walked back dejectedly, their eyes somewhat dazed.

She did not ask about their encounter, nor did she mention the captured clansmen; was Tian Yuan's relationship with the Ancestral Witch that good? No one answered them; Houtu merely looked around and quickly walked toward the depths of the Main Vein. Houyi and the others, exchanging glances, had no choice but to vent their anger on the Strange Stones all around.

"Laws, I can clearly feel the existence of other laws; it really is of great use to our Wu Clan!" Houtu casually shattered a few miscellaneous stones, her eyes flashing with brilliance.

She was an Ancestral Witch, but she still could not change the characteristics of the Wu Clan.

Apart from the laws they were born with, the Wu Clan could not feel or comprehend the existence of any other laws.

But now, in this Earth Vein, she could clearly feel the laws drifting out from the Strange Stones.

They tempered the physical body, and over a long period, they would naturally carry the aura of the laws.

This meant that as long as there was enough time, they could cultivate more laws.

This place was more suitable for the Wu Clan to cultivate than the Primordial land, and in the golden spiritual energy flowing all around, Houtu vaguely sensed wisps of mysterious energy gathering.

Only the Tribulation Qi constantly falling all around made her expression somewhat solemn.

"I hope Tian Yuan can bring my brothers here as soon as possible!" With a whisper, Houtu quickly fled through the Earth Vein.

Compared to combing the Earth Vein, she wanted to know what that mysterious resonance was even more.

On Mount Buzhou, Gungun saw Tian Yuan appear and immediately ran over with an honest face.

"Master!" Gungun twisted his body, rubbing against Tian Yuan's feet.

Glancing at the little fellow by his feet, Tian Yuan said indifferently: "Alright! You go do whatever you need to do, I've been a bit busy lately."

He had seen every move the other had made.

That this little thing had not exposed him still made Tian Yuan very satisfied.

"Okay, Master, I wonder about Master Houtu?" Gungun raised his head, his expression somewhat uneasy.

He had not heard anything of the conversation between Tian Yuan and Houtu just now.

He only saw that after the conversation, the two disappeared together, but now Houtu had not returned.

"You'll have a chance to see her in the future!" As soon as the words fell, Tian Yuan's figure had already disappeared from the scene.

Hearing this, Gungun's eyes lit up; it seems I have two masters now.

Joyful in his heart, he hurriedly ran toward the bamboo forest in his memory.

When Tian Yuan appeared again, he had already arrived at the foot of Mount Buzhou.

Back when he was frantically capturing members of the Wu Clan, he had carefully inquired about Pangu Temple, located deep within a valley directly east of Mount Buzhou.

Seeing the valley from afar, he strode forward.

As he drew closer, a familiar aura rushed toward him from ahead.

"The Pangu Heart is indeed related to the Earth Vein." A smile appeared on Tian Yuan's face, and an inexplicable light flashed in his eyes.

The might overflowing from the valley was not weak; it seemed the remaining power of the Blood Pool was still quite substantial.

Tian Yuan did not hide his aura; just as he approached the valley entrance, he saw numerous figures darting about inside, and several of them charged straight at him, carrying powerful might.

His figure did not move, and with a light flick of his right hand, that drop of Essence Blood floated in the air.

Gonggong, who was rushing toward Tian Yuan in a rage, was merely stunned for a moment before actually increasing his speed.

Who would have known that the Essence Blood would vibrate slightly in the void, immediately manifesting into a figure that blocked the path in front of Tian Yuan.

Seeing Houtu appear, Dijiang, who was slowly following behind, hurriedly spoke: "Stop!"

With their eldest brother having spoken, the furious Gonggong, Zhurong, and the rest of the Ancestral Witches all stopped in the air, unwilling.

Having revealed their Ancestral Witch forms, they all glared at Tian Yuan with violence.
