This primordial world is not serious!

Chapter 920 - 462: Nuwa: Love-struck, Oh Love-struck! (Part 3)

"Alas..."

Hao Tian first let out a sigh filled with helplessness and exhaustion.

Then, in a hesitant tone, he slowly said:

"Indeed... there is a rather troublesome problem."

Seeing this, Feng Xi's sweet smile slightly faded, and instead, she looked at him with determined and encouraging eyes and asked:

"What exactly is the problem? Feel free to tell me about it, perhaps... I can also help you share the burden, even if just a little!"

Upon hearing her words, Hao Tian's furrowed brows finally started to ease.

A trace of a touched smile appeared on his face as he gently held Feng Xi's soft hand.

"Alright then, you're not an outsider, so I'll tell you all about it."

Upon hearing Hao Tian say she was "not an outsider", Feng Xi's heart, which was already racing, began to pound more violently, as if her entire heart was completely filled with endless sweetness.

Her phoenix eyes looked at Hao Tian, unabashedly revealing deep affection and love.

"Feng Xi, as you know, in this chaotic new epoch that is about to begin, if we truly want to live carefree and unrestrained, ultimately, strength is everything."

At this point, Hao Tian sighed appropriately again.

"However... you also know that my Dao path is naturally constrained by the Heavenly Dao due to my identity as the 'Nine Heavens Thunder God,' an innate divine being. No matter how hard I try, my cultivation in this life will reach at most the Realm of Creation, but will never be able to advance further to truly reach the Other Shore."

Upon hearing this, Feng Xi immediately comforted him, saying:

"So, it's this issue that's troubling you. The constraints of the Great Dao are not completely unsolvable; we can find a way to break through it together."

"If it really doesn't work, I can personally go to Wa Palace and plead with the Demon Emperor. With her supreme great power of the Other Shore, I'm sure she would be able to help you."

"No! No! No! The Demon Emperor must not know about this!"

Upon hearing this, Hao Tian's expression suddenly changed. He quickly shook his head and spoke in an extremely serious tone:

"Feng Xi, you must promise me that you will not tell the Demon Emperor about this!"

"If the Demon Emperor learns of my true identity, not only will she definitely not help me, but there is a chance she might bring about a catastrophe upon me immediately!"

"How could it be...?"

Feng Xi was about to reflexively argue back, but she stopped herself halfway through her words.

Her eyes, once filled with love, gradually dimmed.

Indeed...

In this world, the competition for the Great Dao is ruthlessly cruel.

Which of those who have long stood on the Other Shore would want to see more competitors come to vie for the already scarce 'Dao Fruit'?

Once they detect even the slightest hint that someone might hope to break through to the Other Shore Realm,

that person would inevitably face a silent, tacit... joint obstruction by all the Other Shore greats!

Thinking of this, Feng Xi couldn't help but feel a profound helplessness.

"So... is there anything I can do to help you?"

She lifted her eyes again, looking at Hao Tian with a gaze filled with hope, and asked again.

Hao Tian seemed to be waiting for this question.

He almost responded without hesitation:

"I do indeed have a way that might break the deadlock. However... this involves a major matter concerning the shocking secret of the Ancient Demon Court's Master, East Emperor Taiyi..."

Afterwards, he told Feng Xi a pre-prepared story about how, in the last epoch, East Emperor Taiyi, after his fall, had his undying obsession merge with the 'Heavenly Dao Monster,' ultimately becoming a problematic 'Weak Other Shore' filled with destruction and chaos.

Finally, he looked at Feng Xi's utterly shocked face and, with a tone full of temptation and bewitchment, slowly concluded:

"If we can find a way to completely control this irrational 'Heavenly Dao Monster,'

"then we would essentially have a powerful ally at the 'Other Shore' level!"

"At that time, in this chaotic new epoch that is about to come, we will have the real capital to protect ourselves and even make a living!"

Thus, under Hao Tian's persuasion, Feng Xi decided to help him control the Heavenly Dao Monster.

By the East Sea Coast, under the Fusang Divine Tree, the 'Nine Heavens Thunder God' Hao Tian was using his highly refined persuasion skills to ensnare the noble Demon Saint Feng Xi, making her heart flutter and confused, successfully bringing her onto the chariot heading towards an unknown abyss.

Outside the Thirty-Three Heavens, within Wa Palace which was filled with endless Qi of Creation,

was a woman in simple palace attire, but possessing an extravagantly noble aura, as if she were the embodiment of all 'beauty' in the universe, quietly sitting before a treasure mirror capable of reflecting all heavens and ten thousand worlds, revealing all causes and effects.

The mirror clearly displayed the scene beneath the Fusang Tree where Hao Tian and Feng Xi indulged in lovesick affection.

This woman was naturally the Demon Emperor Nuwa, one of the two great emperors of the Ancient Demon Clan who had already reached the Other Shore Realm.

Watching Feng Xi, who was completely immersed in the fabricated love by Hao Tian and even willing to touch the taboo existence of 'East Emperor Taiyi', Nuwa gently supported her forehead with her jade-like hand and let out a sigh filled with helplessness and disappointment.

"Alas... this lovesick mind is truly inadvisable!"

She shook her head, with a wave of her hand, the imagery within the treasure mirror dissipated.

Clearly, she had already seen through everything that would happen next, but had no intention of intervening any further.

Some tribulations must be experienced personally to truly grow.

She slowly stood up, her phoenix eyes capable of seeing through all illusions revealing a barely noticeable seriousness.

"Very well, I should go and see that somewhat troublesome 'ally' of mine."

With that, her figure silently disappeared from the serene and quiet Wa Palace.

When she reappeared, she was standing on the earthy, bustling human realm filled with endless smoke and fire.

She did not go to the Human Race's Holy Land Fire Cloud Cave, nor to the remaining habitats of the Demon Clan, but directly arrived before a seemingly ordinary Taoist temple.

The Taoist temple was located on an unnamed green mountain, its gate shut, without even a plaque hanging above.

But Nuwa knew this was the most important Dao Field of the Master of Jie Sect, Lingbao Tianzun, in this epoch.

She didn't knock or announce herself, just stood quietly in front of the gate and waited.

Soon, the tightly closed temple gate opened from the inside with a creak.

A Daoist in a cyan Daoist robe with a simple appearance yet eyes harboring supreme sharpness appeared at the door.

It was one of the Three Pure Ones, Lingbao Tianzun.

"Daoist, long time no see."

Lingbao Tianzun looked at Nuwa, his face showing no surprise, just nodded lightly as a greeting.

"Daoist, how are the preparations on your side?"

Nuwa didn't exchange pleasantries but asked directly about the matter crucial to the future direction of the Three Realms.
