Chapter 514: Since you've come, Uncle-Master, it's not good to come empty-handed

~7 min read 1,388 words

After killing the Primordial Demon for the second time, Tang An looked at those Outer Realm Demon Race members.

She saw her bring her fingers together, drawing a line of light in front of her. At the same time, spatial rifts appeared both in front of and behind the Outer Realm Demon army that was attacking this time.

The rifts were so large that they penetrated both inside and outside the two realms, and quickly collapsed and contracted inward.

Screams rose one after another; the Outer Realm Demon Race members fled or scattered.

But with Tang An there, not a single Outer Realm Demon Race member could escape the palm of her hand. Everyone was collected by Tang An into the spatial rifts, leaving only death and no life.

"Master."

"Sister."

Sun Wukong, the three of them, and Jiuyue arrived beside Tang An.

When they saw Tang An's eyes, which were devoid of emotion and desire, they were clearly all at a loss.

"Sister." Jiuyue transformed into her fox form, snuggling into Tang An's arms and licking her cheek, attempting to wake Tang An up.

"Sister, don't scare me."

Jiuyue gently nudged Tang An's face with her fox head, looking at her pitifully.

A trace of emotional fluctuation finally appeared in Tang An's eyes, and she broke free from that state.

"Jiuyue." She gently stroked Jiuyue's fur. "Thank you."

Jiuyue rubbed against Tang An's hand; she could feel the coldness on Tang An's body, which no longer had the body temperature belonging to a human.

"Are you okay?" Nezha's eyes were filled with nervousness and awkwardness.

"Don't worry, as long as you can still stay by my side, I'm fine for now." Tang An looked at the magnificent robes on her body; she really looked more and more powerful, more and more high-end.

"Don't feel psychological pressure just because your Master is powerful. Since I am your Master, I must be more powerful than you so I can protect you."

Tang An clicked her tongue smugly and flew to the gate of the Demon-Suppressing Pass.

Li Shimin was directing the overall situation, redeploying defenses.

"Father, are your wounds healed?"

"An'er, are you injured?"

Father and daughter spoke at the same time, smiling at each other; the atmosphere was rarely warm.

At the battlefield in the sky.

The Ancestral Demons newly created by the Primordial Demon had all been dispersed by the Three Pure Ones. Taibai Jinxing led the Heavenly Soldiers and Generals and was in the stage of clearing the field.

The whisk in Taishang Laojun's hand suddenly trembled, detached from his hand, transformed into a coiled-dragon flat staff, and flew away from the Heavenly Realm.

Seeming to sense something, Taishang Laojun pinched his fingers to calculate, his face revealing joy.

"It seems the timing has arrived."

Tongtian Jiaozhu flashed and appeared beside Taishang Laojun; as the two exchanged glances, they both looked toward the Demon-Suppressing Pass.

Wahuang Palace.

Nuwa, who was meditating and comprehending the Great Dao, opened her eyes.

"The eternal calamity of the Three Realms has finally reached its opportunity for an end."

Fuxi's figure appeared in Wahuang Palace.

"Is it true?"

"Naturally."

"Where does the opportunity arrive? The Demon-Suppressing Pass?"

"Indeed."

Fuxi observed the Demon-Suppressing Pass with his divine sense and saw Tang An receive the coiled-dragon flat staff.

"You didn't let her leave the Demon-Suppressing Pass just for this moment?"

"Indeed."

Fuxi was puzzled. "But looking at it now, letting her leave and return is actually what facilitated the opportunity."

Nuwa rarely revealed a faint smile. "I knew the opportunity that facilitated this chance was when she became a Great Dao Saint."

"Therefore, I am willing to be the person who pushes the opportunity."

"And..."

Fuxi knew Nuwa's hesitation. "And what?"

"And I have a faint feeling that even I am just a piece pushing causality on a chessboard."

"This game covers the Great Dao, the Heavenly Dao, me, and all the Saints."

"But I know this game is harmless to the living beings of the Three Realms, so I am willing."

Hearing Nuwa's words, Fuxi's heart surged with stormy waves.

"Is it a layout of the Heavenly Dao?"

Nuwa shook her head slightly. "No, no..."

Nuwa could not say specifically. What she sensed was nothing more than peeking at the edge of the chessboard.

In the mortal world, at the Demon-Suppressing Pass.

Tang An and her group seemed to be inside a pavilion, yet also seemed to be in the void.

Taking a step out, they would be wrapped in layers of Great Dao law power; if it was not her wish, others could not enter or exit.

"Master, is there something you wish to say?" Yang Jian knew that with Tang An's cautious personality, layering defenses to this extent meant she must have something major to say.

"No rush, they are here."

Who are they? Naturally, Tongtian Jiaozhu and Taishang Laojun.

"The coiled-dragon flat staff, you ended up taking it after all." Taishang Laojun's voice of complaint arrived before his person.

Tang An smiled lightly. "Since you've come, Uncle-Master, it's not good to come empty-handed. I have never been polite with you, Uncle-Master, so naturally, taking the gift first is the priority."

Only she could say this without blushing or skipping a beat.

Taishang Laojun examined Tang An. "Having achieved Great Dao Sainthood, how does it feel?"

"It's alright."

Compared to becoming a Great Dao Saint, she seemed to have a greater interest in the coiled-dragon flat staff.

Tongtian Jiaozhu knew that with Tang An's temperament, whatever she was interested in, she would not be interested in the position of a Great Dao Saint.

Saying this might be a bit of a disguised boast, but the facts were indeed so.

"Disciple, have you learned something?"

"Yes." Tang An took out the other two Innate Spiritual Treasures; one was the Three Treasures Jade Ruyi, and the other was the Qingping Sword.

As soon as these three Innate Spiritual Treasures were taken out, Yang Jian immediately thought of something.

"Purifying World Green Lotus? Is this the way to deal with the Primordial Demon?"

Tang An was long accustomed to Yang Jian's intelligence. "Yes."

"At the time of entering Sainthood, I was enlightened by the Great Dao and knew the opportunity had arrived; I can combine the Purifying World Green Lotus to thoroughly end the Great Tribulation of guarding the Three Realms."

"If successful, from then on there will be no more Outer Realm Demon Race. And the Three Realms will never need a Guardian again."

After all, the three words 'Guardian' seemed infinitely glorious, as if they were the great heroes of the Three Realms.

But only those who have experienced it personally can understand how many hardships and difficulties are filled on the road to becoming a Guardian.

Tang An did not want to be a Guardian, nor did she want future people to experience the same suffering as her.

She was even more afraid that the causality on Chenxiang would make him the next Guardian in the future.

Therefore, she must thoroughly end this tragedy on herself.

"Purifying World Green Lotus, when can it be combined?" Taishang Laojun could only deduce the timing of handing the coiled-dragon flat staff to Tang An. He did not know that behind the timing was actually such an opportunity.

After all, when the Purifying World Green Lotus was born back then, the Three Pure Ones had just arrived. It followed the will of heaven and split into three, which was how the Qingping Sword, the Three Treasures Jade Ruyi, and the coiled-dragon flat staff came to be.

Now, to combine them into one again, I'm afraid it will also require the right time and place to be formed.

Tang An pinched her fingers to calculate. "Nine days later."

"Where to combine?" Tongtian Jiaozhu asked.

Tang An looked outside the Demon-Suppressing Pass; the answer was self-evident.

"Master will go with you." Tongtian Jiaozhu was fundamentally not at ease with Tang An going alone.

"Master, I will take Wukong, Yang Jian, and Nezha with me on this trip; you don't need to worry."

"Instead, you and the two Uncle-Masters are the Three Pure Saints. You must lead this great counterattack so I can be at ease."

"Great counterattack?" Everyone was puzzled in unison. ===== CHAPTER 515 =====
