Chapter 159: Chapter 150, Nuwa Summons

Bixiao said with a grin, "Senior Brother, I’m afraid none of the junior sisters and brothers are willing to take up a post in the Heavenly Court. Isn’t it much better to be free and easy in the East Sea? Why go and take orders from someone else?"

Qiong Xiao also nodded repeatedly, saying, "Exactly. If it were for the position of the lord of the Heavenly Court, that might be worth competing for."

"Is this how you all think now?"

All the junior sisters nodded. Was there something wrong with this line of thought? Why would anyone want to be a subordinate to others?! That’s just embarrassing!

"Let it be! Those who are willing to go may go; we will not force those who are not."

Shi Ji stood up and replied, "Yes!" and turned to walk outside.

Gu Liang occupied Shi Ji’s seat with a plop and giggled, "It’s my turn, it’s my turn~"

The sound of mahjong tiles shuffling started up again.

...

In front of the South Heavenly Gate, there was a table set up, with the Jade Emperor sitting behind it, eagerly looking outside. He had heard that the Underworld’s recruitment attracted hordes of Immortals, Demons, Gods, and Demons, with tens of thousands of powerful beings. The requirements I set aren’t high, there should at least be ten thousand, right? We must carefully choose and select the best, as a multitude of test questions filled his mind.

After a long wait, the area outside the Heavenly Gate was desolate, with the wind sweeping over the remains of clouds, not a single soul in sight.

It must be too far, with the Nine Heavens forming a natural moat; surely, it’s too difficult to ascend. Wait, just wait a bit longer, Hao Tian comforted himself, hopefully gazing outside.

As half the day passed, the Heavenly Emperor’s face gradually stiffened.

By evening, the Heavenly Emperor’s gaze turned to despair. He rubbed his cold cheeks and stood up, walking towards the inside of the Heavenly Court, his figure lonely.

"Fellow Daoist~ wait a minute!" A rushed shout suddenly broke the silence.

The Heavenly Emperor turned around hastily, just to see a white cloud racing toward him, and atop the cloud stood an old man holding a horsetail whisk.

The Heavenly Emperor’s eyes lit up, and he hurried forward to greet him.

The white cloud stopped before the South Heavenly Gate, and the old man stepped down from the cloud head, quickly asking, "I heard that you’re recruiting divine beings for the Heavenly Court. Has it ended already?"

"Are you here to apply?"

The old man nodded continuously, "Yes!"

The Heavenly Emperor excitedly grabbed the old man’s hand and burst into laughter, saying, "Congratulations, you’re hired! Come on! Follow me inside."

The old man was dragged by the Heavenly Emperor toward the Heavenly Court, feeling somewhat panicked inside. This Heavenly Court wouldn’t be the same as the old Demon Court, would it? Why does it feel like I’ve entered a den of bandits?

The old man hastily asked, "Fellow Daoist, I heard that there should be a competition and interview for the application. Where will the test be held?"

"The written exam is canceled, and you’ve already passed the interview."

"But I haven’t done anything yet!"

"I declare that you’ve passed, so you’ve passed. Fellow Daoist, what is your name?"

"I am Li Changgeng!"

"Haha~ nice name!"

The old man was completely confused; what’s so good about my name?

The Heavenly Emperor affectionately pulled Li Changgeng towards the Heavenly Court, his heart overflowing with excitement. It hasn’t been easy! Finally, we have recruited one person, a great start. I wonder how it’s going over at the Turquoise Pool – they couldn’t have failed to recruit anyone, could they?

...

Bai Jin returned to the East Sea, spending several carefree days playing mahjong with his junior sisters, fighting Demon King, greeting Master daily, inspecting the Law Enforcement Team’s work, and teasing the imposing Senior Brother. Then the roar spread throughout the East Sea, many Jie Sect Disciples felt that ever since the elder brother from the outside returned, Senior Brother Duobao seemed much more irritable, and the Jie Sect became a lot livelier.

Several days later, at night, Bai Jin lay on a lounge chair in his pajamas, looking up at the starry sky, with a juice on his left and snacks on his right, leisurely enjoying the silence of the night. The world is so wonderful, we should be united and loving.

It would be even better if the powerful figures could get along harmoniously. My Master and Master Uncle can’t stand each other, and it seems like Lady Ping Xin and Nuwa are at odds again. As someone who should be embraced by all these powerful figures, my life is so hard! The revolution is not yet successful, the effort must continue, keep it up＾０＾~

As Bai Jin was thinking, his eyelids fought a battle until he drowsily fell asleep.

Inside a palace, space rippled, and Bai Jin stepped out from the ripples. He looked around in confusion—where is this? I was clearly sleeping, how did I end up here? Could it be that I’ve been summoned again? But why is there no one around?

Then a kid wearing a red bellyband hopped in and said with a giggly smile, "Big Brother!"

Bai Jin turned around in surprise and said, "Lingzhu Zi? Have I arrived at Nuwa Palace?!"

Lingzhu Zi nodded and said, "Yes! The Goddess called me to bring you over." He waved his hand and called out, "Big Brother, come with me quickly!"

Bai Jin followed Lingzhu Zi outside, walking through a long corridor, flying towards the outside world.

In the distance, they could see a huge tree towering beneath them, its canopy sprawling like a pavilion, with thousands of vines hanging down. Underneath the tree, a clear lake was shrouded, with lush flowers blooming beautifully and naturally along its shore.

Nuwa, dressed in splendid palace attire, was strolling beside the pond, and occasionally birds would fly past overhead, stirring ripples on the water’s surface.

Lingzhu Zi stopped his cloud and said, "Big Brother, go ahead!" He whispered in secret transmission, "Be careful, the Goddess is not in a very good mood."

Bai Jin nodded and flew down to the edge of the pond, and as he approached Nuwa, he bowed respectfully and said, "Disciple greets Master Aunt!"

Nuwa nodded and said, "Rise."

Bai Jin got up and honestly stayed behind Nuwa.

Nuwa calmly asked, "Did you go to the Underworld before?"

Bai Jin replied honestly, "Yes! The Underworld is newly established and in chaos, Lady Ping Xin summoned me to contribute some ideas."

"What did Ping Xin say to you?" Nuwa asked blandly.

"Nothing much, just asked me to help deal with the Underworld’s affairs.

Oh, and Lady Ping Xin also said that the most admirable woman in the entire Primordial World is you, Goddess, for your great spirit and generosity, bringing glory to the women of the Primordial World."

Nuwa shook her head and chuckled, "You’re lying. I know Ping Xin; she would never say something like that."

Bai Jin sheepishly said, "Perhaps there’s a little sugar-coating. But the essence hasn’t changed."

"In the future, go to the Underworld less often. Contact with her will not benefit you."

Bai Jin said softly, "Goddess, Lady Ping Xin should be alright, isn’t she? She is like you, a Saint of great compassion."

Looking into the distance, Nuwa spoke leisurely, "Ping Xin is the embodiment of the greatest good in the Primordial World. For the greater good of the Primordial World, she can sacrifice herself, even watch the Witch Clan be destroyed.

Likewise, for the sake of a greater cause, she can also sacrifice you. Such a person can be admired, but not approached, otherwise when she pushes down with the greater good, I couldn’t save you either."

Bai Jin bowed his head and responded, "Yes! Thank you for the advice, Goddess, your disciple will bear it in mind."

A sense of helplessness surged in his heart. Great, now Lady Ping Xin doesn’t let me be close to Nuwa, and Nuwa doesn’t let me be close to Lady Ping Xin. All I want is to honestly cling to powerful thighs and coast along, why is it so hard?! Suddenly, he felt that clinging to thighs had become a somewhat dangerous job.

Bai Jin curiously asked, "Goddess, why have you summoned me?"

Nuwa raised her eyebrows and said, "Can’t I find you if there’s nothing?"

"Of course, you can. At your beck and call, ready day and night, always at the Goddess’s disposal for any task."
