Chapter 113: Chapter 113, Heading to the Witch Clan

Bai Jin cautiously asked, "Master, what do the other Saints mean? If I go to help Nuwa with her task, might I be plotted against by other Saints, like those two Masters from the Western region?"

Tongtian glanced at Bai Jin and chuckled, "You’re quite worried about a lot of things."

Bai Jin smirked and said, "Disciple is a bit afraid of death."

"Nuwa has an extraordinary spirit; when she makes a move, it’s a contention with Heaven and Earth. Us Saints are just watching and will not intervene."

"Master, Nuwa told me to step in and carve out a path of survival for the Human Clan when they are being slaughtered by the Witch Demons, but with my strength, I truly feel more willing than able!"

"No matter, if she said so, it means you can do it."

"Where should I go then? To the East Sea?"

"Head to Shouyang Mountain! That’s your Eldest Uncle’s territory and it’s not far from the Human Clan."

"Yes!"

"Did Nuwa mention anything else?"

Bai Jin’s eyes darted before he hurriedly said, "Nuwa also had a message for you, Master."

"What message?"

Bai Jin coughed once and solemnly said, "The Goddess stated that if this task is well completed, she would have you revoke my position as the Outer Disciple Leader and let me retire peacefully on the Three Lights Immortal Island."

Tongtian laughed out loud, sizing up Bai Jin and said, "Well then! Since Nuwa your Junior Sister does not like you, revoking your position as Outer Disciple Leader is not impossible. But the position of Outer Disciple Leader cannot be left vacant, and there currently isn’t a suitable candidate!"

Bai Jin’s eyes suddenly gleamed with excitement as he exclaimed, "Master, I have a candidate in mind!

Do you remember Zhao Gongming who, upon our arrival to the East Sea, protected the three junior sisters beneath two Jiaolong dragons? I’ve learned about this junior brother; he’s faithful, righteous, broad-minded, adept in management and coordination, and he is well-regarded among the other disciples. He’s the perfect candidate for Outer Disciple Leader, much more suitable than me by far!"

"That can be discussed later. For now, go and carry out Nuwa’s task. Whether Nuwa succeeds or fails, it will be beneficial for you."

"When is later?"

"When you have completed Nuwa’s task."

Tongtian waved his sleeve, and Bai Jin’s figure instantly disappeared.

...

Atop the Primordial Land stood a majestic Divine Palace, surrounded by stone houses, the surrounding Heaven and Earth filled with the wild and ancient aura of barbarism.

At this moment, all the Twelve Ancestor Witches were inside the grand Pangu Hall, their aura heavy and somber.

Bang~ Zhu Rong fiercely punched the table beside him and angrily said, "That damned Hou Yi, for the sake of a woman from the Human Clan, how many of our children have we lost?"

Gonggong spoke gloomily, "I’ve said before, we should not have sheltered the Human Clan."

Houtu frowned and said, "That was Xi He’s scheming, even without the Human Clan, things would not change."

Zhu Rong looked up at the seat of honor and called out, "Eldest brother, what should we do now? Our Witch Clan has suffered such heavy losses, we absolutely must seek retribution for this grudge."

Zhu Jiuyin frowned and reprimanded, "Calm down, all of you! Right now, the most important thing is recuperation, or we wait for the Demon Clan to come down."

Di Jiang spoke leisurely, "As long as the Primordial Spirits are indestructible, the Demon God cannot be eradicated; dealing with the Demon Clan is not so simple."

Zhu Rong shouted in frustration, "How infuriating!" and flames burst into flames atop his head.

...

Not far from the Yi Witch Tribe, the figure of Bai Jin suddenly appeared. He turned his head to look around, his expression solemn. The stage was being set.

He squeezed out a simple and friendly smile and walked towards the Yi Witch Tribe.

"Who goes there?" A loud shout suddenly rang out.

A shadow descended from the sky and with a thunderous crash, landed in front of Bai Jin, sending rocks flying everywhere and whistling sounds cut through the air, as a big man stood in the crater on the ground, his upper body bare, covered in dense tattoo patterns.

With joy and warmth, Bai Jin called out, "Brother Wuti~"

Wuti sized up Bai Jin and furrowed his brows subconsciously. Was this the Demon Clan member that the Ancestor Witch brought last time?

He began to speak, "Brother Bai Jin, what brings you here?"

"Are the Great Witches around? I have important matters to discuss."

Wuti hesitated for a moment before saying, "Follow me!" then turned and walked toward the inside of the tribe.

Bai Jin followed behind, heading inward. Inside the Yi Witch Tribe, there was no longer any laughter or cheerful voices, as if it were the oppressive abyss at the bottom of the sea, with turbulent undercurrents, seeming as if about to burst forth at any moment!

Following Wuti, Bai Jin arrived in front of a stone palace. Wuti gave a loud knock and half-knelt at the grand entrance, shouting, "Requesting to see the leader."

The grand doors rumbled open, and a dull voice sounded: "Enter!"

Wuti stood up and said, "Go on in!" After saying this, he turned and left.

Bai Jin, unbothered, walked into the great hall with a smile on his face. The entire hall was very spacious, with stone walls depicting various Witches drawing bows and shooting arrows.

At the main seat, a big man wearing leather armor was wiping a bone bow with a piece of hide, his head not lifted as he said, "Bai Jin, what is your purpose in coming here this time?"

Bai Jin gave a respectful bow and said with a smile, "I wish to request an audience with the Houtu Ancestor Witch."

"Why not go directly to Pangu Hall?"

Bai Jin replied with a blank expression, "Where is Pangu Hall? I don’t know the way!"

The big man in leather armor looked up at Bai Jin with indifference and said, "What business do you have with the Ancestor Witch?"

Bai Jin shook his head and said, "I cannot tell you, but it is certainly a serious matter."

Thump—The big man in leather armor placed the bow and arrow on a side table and slowly stood up; his three-meter-tall figure resembling a small giant, casting a shadow over Bai Jin, with a powerful pressure pervading throughout the hall.

Bai Jin and the big man held each other’s gaze, his face unchanged.

After a moment, the big man said, "Come with me." and took strides towards the outside.

Bai Jin followed behind.

The two exited the great hall and came to a Divine Palace next to it. Inside the Divine Palace sat twelve stone-carved figures.

The big man said, "This is the Ancestor Witch Hall. You can speak for yourself. As for whether the Ancestor Witch will agree to see you, I cannot guarantee."

Bai Jin walked up to the statue of the Houtu Ancestor Witch, gave a respectful bow, and said: "Disciple Bai Jin, seeking an audience with the Houtu Ancestor Witch!"

...

In the Pangu Hall, the Houtu Ancestor Witch suddenly paused.

At the main seat, Shangdi Jiang asked, "Sister Houtu, what’s the matter?"

"Bai Jin has come looking for me through the Ancestor Witch Hall."

Zhu Jiuyin inquired, "Bai Jin, is that the disciple of Tongtian who is highly favored by Nuwa?"

Houtu nodded and said, "I have had some interactions with him before; he’s a pretty good junior."

Di Jiang spoke, "Bring him over! I would also like to know what he wants to find you for."

Houtu extended her hand towards the center of the great hall, and a clay-yellow swirl appeared. Within the swirl, a figure slowly rose, and as it disappeared, Bai Jin stood in the center of Pangu Hall.

Bai Jin looked around and then gave a bow to all four directions, saying, "I have seen all the Ancestor Witches!"

All the Ancestor Witches nodded in response.
