Chapter 83

In the Floating Beard Mountain beside your Abyss Spring Mountain, is there a little demon

Little did they know, the little fox inside Mount Fuxu was working hard to keep a "promise" it had casually made.

Inside the Nuwa Palace, the conditions for the goddess Nuwa.

Shi Yuan simply refused outright.

They didn't even leave the slightest room for maneuver.

He naturally knew why Nuwa had made such a condition.

After all, Lu Ya is the tenth prince of the Golden Crows, and the only Golden Crow in the Three Realms.

The goddess Nuwa must have had a past relationship with him, so it's understandable that she wanted to protect him.

But Shi Yuan knew.

He could have spared Nezha once before.

The reason is simple: although Nezha was a disciple of the Chan Sect during the Investiture of the Gods, he was only a third-generation disciple.

Although they were enemies of the Jie Sect, their impact on the overall situation was not significant.

And more importantly...

Although Nezha was an enemy of the Jie Sect, he fought honorably and justly.

Compared to their master's generation, they did not use any underhanded or dirty methods.

The disciples of the Jie Sect were all men who valued loyalty and righteousness.

To lose fair and square is to lose fair and square; if you lose, you lose.

As the Tongtian Sect Leader said to the Primordial Heavenly Venerable—the great sect plans, and the fortunes change.

There are countless eons, but they are simply less skilled than others.

Therefore, in reality, Nezha, who was in the "Three-Five-Seven" triad, did not have a high level of hatred within the Jie Sect.

The phrase "opposing positions" is enough to explain everything.

When the disciples of the Jie Sect talked about him, they mostly just said things like, "If I had another chance, I would definitely cut off his head," expressing their dissatisfaction.

But Lu Ya was different.

Lu Ya was known as Xi Kunlun Sanren during the time of the Investiture of the Gods.

Those who are not members of the four religions should not participate in the calamity.

But he still participated in the war, and he did so using extremely despicable methods.

In the Investiture of the Gods, Zhao Gongming was invincible in terms of supernatural powers.

The entire Chan Sect camp couldn't find anyone who could defeat him.

This was precisely the time when the Jie Sect was at its most powerful.

But at this moment, Lu Ya took advantage of Zhao Gongming's unpreparedness and used his magical treasure "Seven Arrows of Nailhead" to ambush him.

This magical artifact is extremely insidious; it secretly creates effigies and performs a ritual to worship them for twenty-one days.

Then you can directly disperse the other person's soul.

This directly resulted in Zhao Gongming not dying in the battle, but rather dying violently in his own camp.

more importantly.

The death of Zhao Gongming almost entirely led to the Jie Sect's complete disadvantage in the Investiture of the Gods.

It can be said that Lu Ya was the most crucial figure who directly led to a complete change in the direction of the Investiture of the Gods war.

A dignified Quasi-Saint, yet his methods are dark and despicable, his actions base and difficult to discern, and the consequences he has caused are extremely serious.

Therefore, he can be considered one of the most hated people by the Jie Sect.

In fact, as far as Shi Yuan knew, his teacher, the Tongtian Cult Master, only had two people in mind who he was determined to kill.

The first one was the greatest traitor of the Jie Sect in the past—Chang Er Ding Guangxian.

That is, the Buddhist "Dīpaṭra-d ..." of today.

The second one is Lu Ya Sanren, now the Great Sun Tathagata Buddha.

Yes, it's funny.

In the heart of the Tongtian Sect Master, this saint of the Jie Sect.

The person they most wanted to kill was actually not a disciple of the Chan Sect.

Instead, they are two people from the Buddhist community today!

Of course, Shi Yuan knew this too.

If he were to mention this matter to the Tongtian Sect Leader and explain the reasons,

So whether it's the Tongtian Sect Leader who dotes on his disciples or the loyal and righteous Zhao Gongming.

Perhaps they would all abandon their past ties with Lu Ya for his sake.

But would Shi Yuan do that?

"Lu Ya used underhanded methods to plot against my senior brother Zhao Gongming, and the karmic ties he has forged with my Jie Sect are irreconcilable."

Obviously, he won't.

"My master Tongtian also deeply hates him—if I encounter this person in the future, I will surely kill him as well."

Shi Yuan's words made no attempt to conceal his true intentions, openly revealing his determination to kill Lu Ya.

After saying this, he respectfully bowed to the Goddess Nuwa: "Therefore, this junior dares to ask Your Majesty to change the terms."

His words were indeed extremely forceful, even bordering on offensive to the sages.

But as expected...

"Just as I thought..."

Upon hearing this, Nuwa showed no surprise whatsoever.

"As expected of Senior Brother Tongtian's disciple, his temperament is indeed inherited from him."

Shi Yuan's words reminded her of the golden age of the Jie Sect.

At that time, most of the disciples of the Jie Sect spoke in the same style as Shi Yuan at that time.

Straightforward and loyal, his character is basically the same as that of the Tongtian Sect Leader.

"What Xiao Shi did in the past has indeed created a great karmic connection with your Jie Sect."

She shook her head and sighed, "However, I thought you would give in a little because of Sister Wangshu."

Shi Yuan smiled upon hearing this.

"But I had already explained this matter to Fairy Wangshu."

"What goes around comes around."

This is not a lie.

Since Wangshu was resurrected and a preliminary foundation of trust was established between her and Shiyuan.

Shi Yuan had naturally told her about Lu Ya long ago.

After all, if such a deep-seated grudge isn't clarified, how can he fully trust Wang Shu?

But to his surprise...

Although Wang Shu was nominally the aunt of those ten Golden Crow Princes.

But in reality, he did not like those ten golden crows.

Or to be more precise—among the demon race, she basically only had a good relationship with a limited number of people, including her own sister Xihe and Nuwa.

For others, and even for the two demon lords, Di Jun and Donghuang Taiyi.

Wang Shu didn't have a good impression of her.

After all, both Di Jun and Donghuang Taiyi were ambitious, domineering, and proud, and they wanted to unify the world.

Most of the demon gods under their command were similar.

Wangshu, on the other hand, is the exact opposite.

As a demon goddess of the Taiyin star, she is very Buddhist.

He has a cool and aloof personality, dislikes fighting, and has little desire for power.

He usually cultivates on the Taiyin Star and keeps company with the Moon Laurel Tree.

As for the ten golden crows, they were exactly the same as their father.

Their nature is evident from the fact that they can cause something like ten suns to appear out of nowhere.

Moreover, Wangshu actually perished not long after they were born.

Therefore, he naturally didn't have any feelings for these nephews.

To put it bluntly.

If it weren't for her older sister, Xihe, mediating between them...

It's highly unlikely that Wang Shu will ever join the Heavenly Court of the Demon Clan and become one of the ancient demon gods.

Therefore, regarding the grudges between Shi Yuan and Lu Ya.

Wang Shu, however, had no intention of getting involved.

According to her own ideas...

If Shi Yuan really kills Lu Ya in the future, she will at most try to protect Lu Ya's true spirit.

In this way, it can be considered as doing her sister "Xihe" one last favor.

"That's enough."

This shows that Wang Shu did not deny Shi Yuan's words.

Knowing that the matter was beyond saving, Nuwa did not say anything more.

She simply stated, "Since the karma surrounding Lu Yazhi cannot be resolved, then tell me, what other price do I need you to pay?"

His words, however, were full of sarcasm.

Upon hearing this, Shi Yuan naturally blurted out his reply.

Primordial Qi, the Breath of the Nine Heavens, the Emperor's Dew—choose what you want!

But then he realized something was wrong.

The item he possesses is indeed extremely precious; it is estimated that the two Buddhist saints and the Primordial Celestial Venerable would be willing to pay a huge price to exchange for it.

But it seems he really misunderstood this demon saint.

The Nine Heavens Breath Soil was once borrowed by Nuwa from the ancestral witch Houtu.

We might still have some inventory on hand right now.

The Emperor's Dew is similar—this substance belongs to the demon race and is owned by Wang Shu.

Given the relationship between Nuwa and Wangshu, the emperor probably drank quite a bit of the imperial fluids in the past.

As for the unique "Primordial Qi" of Shiyuan.

Its greatest function is to refine innate spiritual treasures.

But does Nuwa lack magical treasures?

Clearly, she doesn't lack anything.

After all, Nuwa was similar to the previous Tongtian Sect Leader, famously unattached.

He had no disciples, only a maidservant named Qingluan Fairy.

She took the magical treasure, but who can use it?

After much thought, Shi Yuan realized that if he really wanted to persuade Nuwa...

Unless it is the truly supreme treasure, the 'Origin of Heaven'.

Otherwise, it seems that Nuwa really wouldn't have been moved.

"..."

Shi Yuan's expression turned somewhat helpless.

However, at that moment, a sudden idea struck him.

Oh right! Doesn't he also have that?

"Your Majesty, I..."

He opened his mouth, about to state his price of 1.9 yards.

But at that moment, he noticed that Nuwa's expression seemed to freeze for a moment.

The saint then ignored him.

Instead, she raised her jade-like fingers and gently calculated for a moment.

Then, a slight change appeared in his expression.

There seemed to be a hint of surprise, and a hint of guilt.

"There is a Su family..."

She murmured softly.

Then, he looked at Shi Yuan with a complicated expression.

"That's enough."

Just as Shi Yuan was feeling a chill run down his spine from her gaze.

She had just said, "I will grant you one request."

"Your Majesty, please speak!"

Upon hearing Nuwa's request, Shi Yuan naturally nodded.

"Is there a little demon named 'Liuli' in Fuxu Mountain, near your Yuanquan Mountain?"

"?"

As a result, Shi Yuan was truly dumbfounded, unlike anything he had ever been before.

After a while, he finally came to his senses under Wang Shu's "What are you doing?" gaze.

Then he replied, "That is indeed true."

Then, he heard Nuwa say, "Take her as your disciple, and bring her something for me—I will give you the original seed of the Fusang Divine Tree."
