Chapter 132: Chapter 132 [Heaven Made, Earth Arranged, Marriage Merit] (Seeking Subscriptions)
Seeing Nuwa in her incarnation at that moment, Xuanqing had a bad premonition, especially with Xuandou standing by, wearing a face full of apologies.
Therefore, he guessed there must be some problem with Fuxi’s body.
Feng Xi spoke emotionlessly, saying coldly: "Do you remember how you sweet-talked my elder brother? Could he possibly accomplish those tasks alone? In the olden days, with dozens of Quasi-Saints and hundreds of Daluo Golden Immortals, the Witch and Demon Clans dared not claim they could conquer all the heavens, yet you managed to nearly talk my brother into crippling himself!"
Hearing this, Xuanqing immediately replied awkwardly: "I just set it as a goal to inspire him, I never intended for him to take on the tasks all by himself!"
He realized that the boost he gave Fuxi might have been a bit much!
No wonder Nuwa is dissatisfied!
Looking at Feng Xi’s gloomy face, Xuanqing instinctively shrank his neck, continuing to say, "If Lady Nuwa is not satisfied, I can also persuade him to change his mind!"
Isn’t it just about persuading?
With Fuxi’s temperament at this time, if he could be persuaded once, he could be persuaded a second time!
"That’s not necessary!"
Feng Xi shook her head, "The Palace only wishes my brother not to overwork himself. You know, the matters of countless generations of the Human Race shouldn’t rest on his shoulders alone!"
"So, what does Lady Nuwa mean...?"
Xuanqing tentatively asked, "Do you wish for me to persuade Fuxi to rest for a while? Or to find him some helpers to complete these tasks?"
Upon hearing this, Feng Xi straightforwardly took out the "Red Embroidery Ball" and said, "The Palace wishes for you to find him a Dao companion! When I received this fated marriage treasure in the past, the Daoist Ancestor said that this treasure will validate the unions of Heaven, Earth, and Man! In the past, Emperor Jun and Xi He achieved their celestial marriage with the help of this treasure! Now, as my brother has reincarnated into the Human Race, born with the fortune of the Heavenly Dao, and just so happens to need merit to become the Human Emperor, he would be the best candidate for this human marriage!"
"Find a partner?"
Xuanqing was taken aback.
He had not anticipated Nuwa’s incarnation would have this in mind for him!
But he vaguely remembered from the myths that Fuxi’s wife was supposed to be Nuwa herself.
In this age, the strong were revered, and there was no concept of ethics; if your strength was sufficient, it was feasible to have a hundred or a thousand Dao companions!
Although Nuwa and Fuxi addressed each other as siblings, both being top-grade Innate Sacred beings, there was no blood relation between them!
So, it was not impossible to validate a human marriage!
However...
Xuanqing then ventured to ask, "May I know if Lady Nuwa has a suitable candidate in mind? With Fuxi’s status, there aren’t many in this Primordial World who are a match for him!"
"In this vast Primordial World, the female immortals with strength and destiny not inferior to the great god Fuxi can be counted on one hand, of those I know, there’s only Lady Houtu, The Queen Mother of the West, Xi He, Turquoise Pool... and your ladyship!"
"The Witch and Demon Clans are like water and fire, incompatible. Even though the great god Fuxi has reincarnated into the Human Race, a union with Lady Houtu is likely impossible. As for The Queen Mother of the West, she was born from the pure Yin essence and is not compatible with Fuxi. Xi He married Emperor Jun in a celestial wedding years ago, bore him offspring, and now her soul has perished, leaving only a Good Corpse, also not a suitable match for Fuxi!"
"As for Turquoise Pool!"
"She’s matched with Supreme Hao Tian!"
"As for the remaining option..."
Saying this, Xuanqing cast a meaningful glance at Feng Xi... the remaining choice being only you, Nuwa herself, right?
But Feng Xi’s expression did not change upon hearing this; she merely said indifferently, "Since I am the most suitable, to help my brother attain perfection in merit sooner, it’s not a problem, but now we’re just missing someone to serve as the matchmaker!"
After speaking, she glanced at Xuanqing.
Xuanqing felt as if he had been struck by a Devastating Divine Thunder, standing dazedly on the spot, then pointed to himself, "Could it be, Lady Nuwa wishes for me to play this role?"
In the past, Fuxi was Nuwa’s elder brother, and I had to address him as Saintly Uncle, but if the two of them were to validate the human marriage, wouldn’t I have to call Fuxi Saintly Father?
No!
Now the reincarnated Fuxi calls me ancestor; I am his senior!
Could it be said that in the future, we will each stick to our own roles, I calling Fuxi ’Saintly Uncle’ or ’Saintly Father,’ while Fuxi respectfully addresses me as ’Old Ancestor Suiren’?
Xuanqing felt this matter was a bit absurd and somewhat difficult to accept for a moment.
Suddenly, he caught a glimpse of Xuan Dou the Great Master, also astonished, and immediately felt as if he had found a savior: "Lady Nuwa, why don’t you ask Master Xuandou to serve as the matchmaker? As the teacher who represents the Heavenly Emperor, he is far more appropriate than I am! I am not eloquent! Such a task is really too much for me!"
"Ah?"
Xuan Dou, upon hearing this, quickly declined, "Your Holiness possesses great discernment. I still believe that Xuanqing, my fellow disciple, is more suitable! How could I be qualified to serve as a matchmaker between you and the great god Fuxi!"
He too had not expected that merely standing by, he would almost be entrapped by Xuanqing!
"Ah!"
Xuanqing immediately spoke, "Xuan Dou, you are the elder disciple; one should assume one’s responsibilities!"
"I still think you are more appropriate, junior brother," Xuan Dou suddenly became composed, turned towards Feng Xi, and said, "I believe Lady Nuwa also favors you more!"
Hearing this, Xuanqing looked towards Feng Xi and then from desperation came inspiration, speaking, "Both of our cultivation levels are too low, and as descendants shaped by the Holy Mother, how could we possibly qualify to serve as matchmaker for the Holy Mother?"
"Lady Nuwa, as a Heavenly Dao Saint, holds a status beyond description. In my view, in this vast Primordial World, only Heaven and Earth are suitable to serve as your matchmaker!"
"I heard that the Immortal Zhenyuan of Wuzhuang Temple reveres only the honorifics of ’Heaven’ and ’Earth.’ Surely Lady Nuwa, as a Heavenly Dao Saint, cannot fall short compared to Immortal Zhenyuan!"
Having to serve as a matchmaker for a Saint is something his small stature could not bear.
"Correct!"
Xuan Dou likewise immediately concurred, "What junior brother Xuanqing said is true, in this vast Primordial World, only Heaven and Earth can validate the marriage for you and the great god Fuxi!"
Such matters would be too much for Xuanqing to bear, and even Xuandou himself could not withstand these consequences!
"Good!"
Upon hearing this, Feng Xi immediately nodded her head, then turned to Xuanqing and said, "Heaven and Earth as matchmakers, witnessing the marriage and its merit—this is indeed a good idea! However, the task of persuading my elder brother falls upon you!"
"Yes!"
Xuanqing immediately agreed.
He felt that if he were to refuse again, Feng Xi’s "Red Embroidery Ball" might instantly hit him, possibly creating a big lump on his head, or maybe even a grave mound under his feet!
No matter the bump, neither was something he wished to see, an unbearable weight for his life.
Before long, he came before Emperor Yao, first as an elder ancestor of the Human Race, praising and affirming the other’s recent actions, then he directly broached the matter: "On the path of cultivation, it is best to have a like-minded companion! For the Human Race to develop and grow stronger, procreation is indispensable. As the future Human Emperor, you should set an example! Emperor Yao, do you want a life companion or not? Just say the word, and I will bring her to you right away!"
"Then you may bring her..."
Emperor Yao, initially ready to nod, suddenly realized what was being suggested and was immediately taken aback: "What? Elder ancestor, you want to find me a companion?"
"No way!"
Emperor Yao firmly refused: "Elder ancestor, the Human Race has not yet flourished greatly, and as the future Human Emperor, how could I indulge in romantic love!"
"Hey!"
Xuanqing immediately used his persuasive skills: "Everything I told you before, do you think you can do it all alone?"
"It needs the persistent and unyielding efforts of generations upon generations of the Human Race!"
"As the Human Emperor, you should prioritize the proliferation of the Human Race; having children and grandchildren, continuing the lineage, and then the blood of the Human Race can be passed down from generation to generation!"
"Some things, even if you can’t achieve them yourself, your progeny, the later generations of the Human Race, will surely inherit your will and turn it into reality!"
"So..."
"Emperor Yao, find yourself a companion!"
"I’ve looked around, and Feng Xi is a good choice; the two of you are simply a match made in heaven!"
Emperor Yao wanted to argue, but facing Xuanqing’s words, he didn’t know what to say... because he thought Xuanqing made a lot of sense!
Seeing this, Xuanqing took advantage of the momentum: "It’s not just my opinion; ask Daoist Xuandou, he also thinks you two are a perfect match!"
"Yes!"
Xuandou heard this and eagerly nodded like a pecking chicken: "Xuan... Suiren’s friend is right! I also think you should find a suitable companion! Feng Xi is exceptionally capable, and she would be a perfect match for you!"
At this moment, his "Supreme Forgetfulness" was gone. The Holy Mother herself was watching from the void; how could he dare to say a single word of disagreement in front of Emperor Yao?
"Alright then!"
Emperor Yao immediately agreed.
In fact, his impression of Feng Xi was also quite favorable, although on usual days, he only regarded her as a sister and never considered marrying her!
But since the ancestor said it was for the good of the Human Race, what harm was there in making some sacrifices?
Over tens of thousands of years, Emperor Yao had already received considerable recognition from the Human Race, a well-known Great Sage far and wide, and his marriage to Feng Xi naturally could not be done hastily. Not only were there guests to invite, but Heaven and Earth had to witness it as well, with the "Red Embroidery Ball" establishing a complete marriage system for the Human Race, thus fulfilling a Human marriage.
And the preparation of the wedding fell entirely on Xuanqing and Xuandou.
...
Meanwhile, the downfall of the two Daluo Demon Gods sent by Bing Yi had also made her wary of probing the Human Race any further, and she quickly conveyed this news to Ao Hong.
Upon receiving the message, Ao Hong also furrowed his brow. If the Human Race had a great protector, how could he surreptitiously acquire the Human Race’s fortune?
After some thought, he immediately sent his Good Corpse to personally investigate the major fortunes of the Human Race and find out who had obliterated the Demon Saints sent by Bing Yi.
But just as he was nearing the Hua Xu tribe, he saw Emperor Yao and Feng Xi conducting a Human marriage and inviting the "Red Embroidery Ball" and Heaven and Earth to testify to their union.
"The Red Embroidery Ball? Isn’t that one of the magic treasures of Nuwa Saint?" Ao Hong was deeply suspicious in his heart: "Could it be that the Nuwa Saint is secretly protecting the Human Race?"
However, even as his Divine Thought spread over tens of millions of miles in the void, he found no trace of Nuwa Saint.
Little did he know, Nuwa Saint, hiding her identity, was calmly observing him!
With boundless divine abilities and a perfect fusion with the Heavenly Dao, Nuwa was adept at Creation Skills; if she did not wish to be seen, he could stand before her and still not recognize her.
Boom!
Just as Ao Hong was about to leave, the "Red Embroidery Ball" suddenly vibrated violently, the Heavenly Dao thundered, and then a massive cloud of Merit Golden Cloud appeared in the void.
This cloud of merit, seventy percent went to Emperor Yao and Feng Xi, and the remaining thirty percent merged with the "Red Embroidery Ball," this Top Grade Innate Spiritual Treasure, enhancing the power of this marriage-bound treasure even further!
Ao Hong was naturally very envious.
"Back in the day, Emperor Jun and Xi He achieved merit from their divine marriage, and now Emperor Yao and Feng Xi also obtain merit from their Human marriage, it seems that the mandate of heaven is indeed shifting to the Human Race!"
Seeing this scene, instead of deterring him, it strengthened his resolve to seize Emperor Yao’s fortune and transfer the destiny of the Human Race to himself.
However, before his Good Corpse could act, a powerful Devastating Divine Thunder crossed a million miles of void and struck towards him.
"Qiankun Map, suppress!"
Xuandou also immediately took action, wielding his Spiritual Treasure to deliver a universe-shattering strike.
"I can’t let you ruin Emperor Yao’s good fortune!" Xuanqing smiled softly, slowly revealing his form: "It’s just a pity that you’ve only sent a Good Corpse today!"
