Chapter 65: The Lord of Taiyin Star Returns to Her Position, Bestowed the Name Chang'e

~13 min read 2,569 words

"Lord Houtu, then what is this method? What do you need me to do?"

Houyi could not suppress his joy and asked happily.

Houtu Zuwu shook her head with a faint smile, "No need, as long as you have your wife swallow this strand of Ancestral Witch blood, it will be able to transform her into the Wu Clan. As for whether she wants to transform or how she chooses, that is up to you both to decide!"

As she spoke, she reached out and forced out a red thread as thin as a strand of hair, handing it to Houyi.

"Yi thanks Lord Houtu!"

After Houyi respectfully received it, he was already considering in his heart how to persuade Nv'e to refine this strand of Ancestral Witch blood.

"Let her consider it carefully; if you want to be together forever, you must make some choices involving sacrifice!" Looking at the deep-in-thought Houyi, Houtu Zuwu finally said softly.

After saying this, she turned and left.

Wuxian, who was beside him, saw this and patted his shoulder with great understanding, then followed Houtu away from the sacrificial grounds.

Xingtian, who was still a bachelor, did not understand what there was to think about; since they wanted to be together forever, he should just let her refine it directly.

However, upon seeing the departing Houtu and Wuxian, he also said a word to Houyi about considering it carefully, then followed in the footsteps of Houtu Zuwu and left the sacrificial grounds.

Holding that strand of Ancestral Witch blood, Houyi considered it carefully for a while, then planned to go home first and let Nv'e make her own choice first!

After thinking this, Houyi bid farewell to Houtu Zuwu and Xingtian and the others.

Then he strode toward home.

Just as Houyi was returning home.

Far away in the small cottage, Nv'e was also lost in her own thoughts.

Originally, she was an ordinary human woman who loved peace, but through her contact with Houyi and learning about the grudges between the Wu Clan and the Demon Race.

It made her understand one thing.

Wanting to live a peaceful life with Houyi was simply not realistic.

Not to mention that Houyi was a Great Witch of the Wu Clan, just the fact that he killed several sons of the Heavenly Emperor of the Demon Race meant there would be no peace in their lives.

Therefore, since the life she wanted could not be peaceful, then she would just integrate into it!

Thinking of this, Nv'e could not help but take out the Golden Pill that Changxi Shengmu had given her.

She heard Changxi Shengmu say that after swallowing this Golden Pill, one could not only live forever but also possess miraculous powers.

Originally, she had wanted to talk to Houyi about what happened this afternoon, but after Houyi was called away by Houtu Zuwu, the matter of the Golden Pill was shelved.

And what kind of matter would make an Ancestral Witch personally come to discuss it with Great Witch Houyi?

Only a major event!

Only then would they be suddenly summoned by an Ancestral Witch, and as Houyi's wife, she could not share the burden for him, and would even become a drag on him.

This made her suddenly hate herself immensely for being a person without any power.

The more she thought, the more depressed she became, and she came to the courtyard outside the house.

Sitting on a stone stool, she looked at the night scene; the stars were twinkling, and the usual crescent moon had turned into a huge full moon.

Watching and watching, Nv'e was silent for a while, then took out that Golden Pill.

"I want to share some pressure for Yi!"

Nv'e thought to herself.

Just as she was about to swallow the Golden Pill, the Snow-white Jade Rabbit that Houyi had gifted her actually jumped in front of her.

And its gaze was instantly attracted by the Golden Pill in Nv'e's hand.

Consequently.

The Jade Rabbit didn't even think and opened its big mouth, jumping toward that Golden Pill.

However, just as it was less than ten centimeters away from the Golden Pill, its ears were instantly grabbed by Nv'e.

Nv'e held it by its ears, brought it in front of her, and feigned a fierce expression as she said, "Good, little rabbit! You actually want to steal my Golden Pill!"

As she spoke, she reached out and kneaded and played with it.

Then she held it in her arms with one hand.

With the other hand, she swallowed the Golden Pill without hesitation.

As she swallowed the Golden Pill, a strong silver moonlight immediately erupted from her body.

At the same time, the Taiyin Star in the sky also shone brightly, slowly casting down a beam of silver moonlight toward this side.

And at the same time, Nv'e's body also began to undergo earth-shaking changes.

Not only did her power increase, but her realm also instantly broke through the barrier between mortal and Immortal, becoming a genuine Immortal.

And she inexplicably received a legacy called the "Taiyin True Scripture."

And outside her body.

The moonlight shimmered with silver light, slowly rotating around her, beginning to correspond with the moonlight cast down by the Taiyin Star in the sky, until the two connected.

Just at this moment.

Before Nv'e could even feel the state of her body, she soon discovered that the sky and the land where she was located were actually enveloped by a beam of moonlight.

Just as she was still feeling surprised by this.

She was actually uncontrollably floating slowly toward the Taiyin Star along this beam of moonlight!

This scene immediately shocked her.

"Ah?!"

In a panic, she wanted to use the mysterious power from within her body to stop her ascent.

However.

No matter how hard she tried, she simply could not shake off the attraction of this beam of moonlight from the Taiyin Star.

At a loss for what to do, she could not help but feel the weight in her hand.

Looking down.

She saw the jade rabbit that Houyi had gifted her, currently curled up in her arms and shivering.

At this moment.

She had already reached an altitude of one thousand meters above the ground.

And at this time, she could also see the edges of the Nve Tribe in the distance.

So, without a second thought, she shouted in that direction.

However.

She did not know.

Back when the lunar radiance descended, Empress Xihe, hiding in the shadows, had waved her hand to restrict the nearby Nve Tribe within the tribe.

No one could leave the entire tribe.

Even the Human Race Immortals who discovered this pillar of lunar light and Nv'e could not escape the restriction set by Xihe.

Thus, they could only watch helplessly as Nv'e was pulled higher and higher by the pillar of lunar light.

Just as Nv'e was shouting at the Human Race tribe.

Houyi, who was rushing back from the Dayi Tribe, also discovered the lunar radiance descending from the sky.

Originally secretly vigilant, upon discovering that the location where the lunar light pillar descended was exactly where Nv'e was, he roared and transformed, turning into a ten-thousand-foot giant, rushing madly toward the location of the lunar light.

And at this time.

Nv'e's figure had already followed the pull of the lunar light and reached an altitude of ten thousand meters.

While she was burning with anxiety and falling into despair at such a high altitude, she suddenly heard a huge roar coming from the direction of the Dayi Tribe.

Hearing this, Nv'e was instantly overjoyed and shouted loudly toward the direction of the sound.

"Yi!! I'm here! Save me~!"

Just as she continued to shout, she finally saw a huge figure on the distant horizon running madly toward her direction.

Overjoyed to the point of tears, Nv'e freed one hand and waved it frantically at Houyi.

"Yi~! Save me!"

Just then, Nv'e instantly sensed that the pulling force from Taiyin Star had suddenly increased dozens of times.

Houyi, with his ten-thousand-foot body, who could originally look at her levelly, now had to look up to see Nv'e's figure.

"Nv'e!!!"

Houyi leaped, instantly crossing countless obstacles, and in the blink of an eye, arrived beside the pillar of lunar light.

However.

Nv'e's figure had already arrived at the Heavenly Realm of the Thirty-Three Heavens.

To intercept Nv'e at this time, one could only enter the Heavenly Realm!

However, Houyi only paused for a moment, then without a second thought, he leaped up.

Under the blessing of the infinite power of the earth, Houyi's body quickly broke through the air and flew rapidly toward the direction where Nv'e was.

Just as Houyi's body was about to enter the Heavenly Realm.

A shout from Houtu Zuwu suddenly rang out across the Primordial Land.

"Houyi!! Don't!"

Behind Houtu Zuwu, Great Witch Xingtian and Great Witch Wuxian were also looking at Houyi, who was about to enter the Heavenly Realm, with eyes wide enough to split.

After Houyi heard the shouts from below.

He looked at Houtu Zuwu and the others with an apologetic gaze, then broke through the barrier of the Heavenly Realm without hesitation and entered the Thirty-Three Heavens.

"Lord Houtu, let us go up and save Houyi!"

Xingtian, with reddened eyes, immediately requested of Houtu Zuwu.

"Lord Houtu!"

Wuxian also looked at Houtu Zuwu with a firm expression.

Facing the righteous indignation of Xingtian and the other, Houtu Zuwu glared back at them.

"All of you, shut up!"

"The two of you return to the tribe to fetch reinforcements; I have already notified the other Ancestral Witches!"

"Lord Houtu...!" Just as Xingtian and Wuxian wanted to say something more, they were immediately stifled by a glare from Houtu Zuwu.

"Go!"

Houtu Zuwu said coldly.

Helpless, Xingtian and Wuxian had no choice but to reveal their battle bodies and run toward the surrounding Wu Clan tribes in different directions.

After they left, Houtu Zuwu's body rose abruptly, instantly increasing to one hundred thousand feet.

Soon, a figure with a human body and snake tail, with seven arms on the back and two arms in front, holding two Tengshe, and a wild and thick earth aura suddenly rushed toward them.

This was, shockingly, her true Ancestral Witch Battle Body.

Subsequently.

Her body suddenly rose from the ground, instantly breaking through layers of void, and flew toward the Heavenly Realm.

And on the other side.

When Houyi entered the Thirty-Three Heavens, he looked around from afar, but where was Nv'e's figure anymore?

All that remained was a group of covetous Demon God of the Demon Race.

Surrounded by the demons, Empress Xihe looked at him with a cold sneer, while Taiyin Goddess Wangshu looked at him calmly.

Seeing this, Houyi.

Even though he had long known in his heart that this was a trap, he still could not suppress his roar toward the sky.

"Demon Race wretches! Return my Nv'e to me!!"

Subsequently, a famous Wu Clan weapon suddenly appeared in his hand: a pitch-black Shooting Sun Bow, along with several arrows crafted from ordinary Wu Clan weapons.

Facing the furious Houyi and that Shooting Sun Bow, a trace of resentment flashed across Xihe's face.

"Attack! Take Houyi down for me!"

She coldly ordered the surrounding Demon Gods.

The Demon Gods of various tribes all around had long been waiting, hungry and impatient.

One must know that the Empress Xihe had given her royal word: whoever captured Houyi would be rewarded with an Intermediate Innate Spiritual Treasure!

This was an Intermediate Innate Spiritual Treasure!

Among them were many powerhouses at the Daluo Golden Immortal Peak who were just one Innate Spiritual Treasure away from stepping into the Quasi-Saint realm.

Therefore.

The Demon Gods of various tribes shamelessly swarmed forward, fearing that someone else would snatch the credit and capture Houyi first.

Just as the crowd of Demon Gods besieged him together.

Nv'e, under the gravitational pull of the Taiyin Star, passed through layers of the void and gradually approached the desolate, tranquil Taiyin Star.

And here, a cold woman in white was already waiting for her.

As Nv'e landed on the Taiyin Star, this unknown woman also smiled gently: "You have come!"

Nv'e was stunned upon hearing this, then asked cautiously.

"Lady Goddess, are you calling me?"

"Indeed!" The woman nodded and smiled.

"This palace is the corpse of the previous Taiyin Star Lord, named Mingshu! You may address this palace as Teacher!"

"Master?!!"

Nv'e's small mouth opened slightly, then she hurriedly shook her head and said urgently: "Lady Goddess, please let me go; my husband is still waiting for me to return below!"

Goddess Mingshu shook her head slightly and said calmly: "Your current integration with the Heavenly Industry Position of the Taiyin Star Lord is too shallow; at this moment, you are completely unable to break free from the gravitational pull of the Taiyin Star."

"To shake off the gravitational pull of the Taiyin Star, you must fully integrate the Heavenly Industry Position of the Taiyin Star Lord and raise your own cultivation to the Daluo Golden Immortal realm before you can leave the Taiyin Star!"

Hearing this, Nv'e's heart instantly turned cold.

She collapsed to the ground in despair.

As she collapsed, the jade rabbit in her hand also slipped away, hopping toward a fluorescent tree in the distance in the blink of an eye.

"How could it be like this...!"

Nv'e, collapsed on the ground, muttered in disbelief.

At this moment, Goddess Mingshu continued.

"If you do not take this palace as your master, then this palace will not pass on the essence of the Taiyin True Scripture to you; you will be unable to ascend to the Daluo Golden Immortal realm and will spend your whole life lonely within the Taiyin Star."

Speaking of this, a trace of nostalgia and emotion flashed in Goddess Mingshu's eyes.

Hearing this, Nv'e gritted her teeth, then with a thud, knelt before Goddess Mingshu and said pleadingly.

"Lady Goddess, please, can you let me say goodbye to my husband?"

However, to her despair, Goddess Mingshu continued to shake her head.

Then she heard her say.

"This palace cannot take you away, because at this moment you have not yet merged with the Heavenly Industry Position of the Taiyin Star Lord; once you leave the coverage of the Taiyin Star, you will turn into a part of the Taiyin Star—you could also call it Transformation into Rice!"

"No!! How could it become like this? This is not what I wanted...! Wuu wuu..."

Nv'e cried out sorrowfully.

A long time passed.

After an unknown amount of time, Nv'e gradually calmed down.

Her gentle and pitiful expression also gradually became icy and indifferent.

She was seen kneeling calmly before Goddess Mingshu, bowing deeply.

"Nv'e, greets Teacher!"

Goddess Mingshu smiled slightly at this moment, then she was heard saying.

"Mm, since that is the case, this palace shall accept you as the final disciple of the Taiyin lineage! Your position as Taiyin Star Lord was obtained from Changxi; using your mortal name Nv'e, this palace shall bestow upon you the name: Change!"

"Change?"

Nv'e called out calmly in her heart, then knelt and thanked her calmly: "Change thanks Teacher for bestowing the name!"

"Mm, the child is teachable~!"

Mingshu smiled indifferently.
