Chapter 87: Chapter 87 [Jiuli Emerges, Marriage Red Thread] (Please Subscribe)

As years change, time flows like water, when the majority of the Human Race migrated near Mount Tai and the Yellow River, some also moved near Buzhou Mountain.

They intermarried with the Witch Clan, giving birth to the lineage of Witch People, and the Witch Clan, upon discovering that the Witch People possessed a complete Primordial Spirit, did not stop this.

On the contrary, they strongly advocated for it!

Aside from this, some among the Human Race also fled to the vicinity of the East Sea during the Demon Clan’s mass slaughter of the Human Race, and after marrying the Dragon Clan, they gave birth to the Dragon People lineage!

Perhaps it is the marvel of creation, or perhaps because Nuwa deliberately sculpted the Human Race into the form of Innate Taoist Body during her creation of humans, the bloodline of the Human Race is compatible with most races and can successfully breed offspring.

They intermarried with the Snake Clan, giving birth to the Snake People lineage; with the Feather Clan, giving birth to the Feather People lineage; with the Spirit Clan, giving birth to the Longbo Giant lineage...

These new members of the Human Race, while retaining the Human Race’s bloodline, also inherited the Innate Divine Abilities of other races; the Witch People lineage inherited the Witch Clan’s robust physique, the Dragon People lineage inherited the Dragon Clan’s ability to Call the Wind and Summon the Rain, Snake People lineage inherited the Snake Clan’s techniques of concealment, and the Feather People lineage even naturally possessed wings...

Xuanqing noticed this as well, but he did not interfere, as it was the choice of the Human Race themselves, and from the current perspective, it was evolving in a positive direction!

These hybrids all carried the bloodline of the Human Race. As long as they identified themselves as the Human Race, then they naturally belong to it. If they wished to break away from the Human Race to establish their lineage, that wouldn’t necessarily be a bad thing!

As the Human Race continued to reproduce generation after generation, and with the decline of Innate Spiritual Energy in the heavens and earth, the innate talents of the later-born Human Race were not as superior as those of the Primordial Human Race.

Of course, there are occasionally some who have a resurgence of ancestry, whose talents are infinitely close to those of the Primordial Human Race.

However, they are the minority!

And those of the Human Race who intermarried with different races, after combining the bloodlines of the Human Race and other races, even birthed some beings whose talents are not inferior to those of the Primordial Human Race!

For example, those among the Human Race who fled to Buzhou Mountain and for the first time intermarried with the Witch Tribe of the Great Witch Quan Jiu, gave birth to the exceptionally talented Witch People - Li Tan, Li Ju, Li Lu, Li Wen, Li Guang, Li Wu, Li Po, Li Fu, Li Bi – whose constitution were even stronger than the Primordial Human Race!

Originally from Li Mountain, upon establishing a new tribe, to express their gratitude towards the Great Witch Quan Jiu for his protection, they named the new tribe "Jiuli."

"Jiuli?"

Xuanqing laughed helplessly, "Li Tan? Isn’t that Chi You’s original name?"

That’s right!

Victors become kings, losers become notorious.

Chi You originally wasn’t called Chi You; his name was actually Li Tan, only after being defeated by Xuanyuan was he demeaned with the name "Chi You"!

"Now, from the era when the Human Race prospered during the time of the Three Emperors and Five Sovereigns, there are still many eons to go. Chi You had cultivated many eons earlier than Xuanyuan, his strength far surpasses Xuanyuan, no wonder Xuanyuan was defeated in all nine battles!"

In his heart, Xuanqing silently lamented for the yet-to-be-born Xuanyuan, and also couldn’t help but understand why in the future, the Twelve Golden Immortals of Chan Sect would be tainted with bloodshed?

The Chan Sect backed Xuanyuan, but Xuanyuan couldn’t defeat Chi You, so weren’t those Twelve Golden Immortals forced to take personal action?

In a great battle, killings are inevitable, and killing many naturally stains one with bloodshed!

Because, although the Witch People lineage did not have the purest bloodline, they were still descendants of the Human Race; the Twelve Golden Immortals raising their hands against them naturally led to backlash from the Human Race’s destiny!

"Sigh!"

"Matters of the future, let’s talk about them later!"

Xuanqing did not dwell on this issue, he paid attention to the Witch People lineage purely for the sake of seeing how Hou Yi and the Good Corpse of Xi He met!

Of course, he also wanted to take this opportunity to ask Ancestor Witch Zhu Rong for a source of "Devastating Divine Fire"!

If "Devastating Divine Thunder" is the closest existence to the ultimate source of all thunders, then "Devastating Divine Fire" is the pinnacle divine fire closest to the ultimate source of all fires!

For him, refining all fires to perfect the Fire Dao of Daluo Heaven, the benefits are unspeakable.

As for those Divine Fire Origins given to him by Xi He, he had already consulted Emperor Shangqing and checked thoroughly; there were no hidden drawbacks, and he could integrate them into "Sui Fire" with peace of mind.

However, he was not in a hurry!

The urgent matter at hand was to find a way to exchange for "Devastating Divine Fire" from Ancestor Witch Zhu Rong!

Although he could take advantage of his relationship with Houtu and demand Devastating Divine Fire from Zhu Rong, doing so would inevitably create new causes and effects between him, the Witch Clan, and the Ancestor Witch Zhu Rong.

The decline of the Witch Clan and their departure from the stage of history is a general trend, and it greatly benefits the Human Race. There is no advantage in creating causes and effects with the Witch Clan at this moment.

However, if he were to save Hou Yi and then exchange with Zhu Rong for the "Devastating Divine Fire," it would be justified!

And it would not result in any new causes and effects!

As for whether Hou Yi not perishing would lead to future changes?

That is no longer for him to consider!

Soon, the incarnated Wind Dao that was secretly investigating sensed the presence of Xi He’s Good Corpse, who had possessed a pregnant woman about to give birth.

Months later, a girl was born, appearing no different from the members of the Human Race.

But Xuanqing knew that this girl was the transformation of Xi He’s Good Corpse, intending to use the identity of the Human Race to get close to Hou Yi and find an opportunity to kill him.

In the blink of an eye, more than a decade passed, and the girl grew up into a beautiful young woman who began to inquire about the Witch Clan, intentionally or unintentionally.

This Human Clan Tribe was the Li Mountain Tribe, which was very close to the Witch Tribe, and often interacted with the Witch Tribe due to the intermarriage between the two tribes.

Finally, during an accident, Xi He’s Good Corpse Chang’e met the Great Witch Hou Yi. Hou Yi immediately fell for this Human Race woman named Chang’e.

"That’s not right!"

"Hou Yi is a Great Witch, an entity that has lived through hundreds of great cycles, how could he fall so easily?"

Xuanqing was incredulous.

He instructed the incarnated Wind Dao to look closely, and finally detected a peculiar detail—there was an unknown red thread suddenly on Chang’e and Hou Yi!

"The Great Dao of Marriage!"

At this moment, he couldn’t help but think of Nuwa, whose "Red Embroidery Ball" could witness the marital rites of heaven, earth, and man, and Nuwa herself was also a master of the Great Dao of Marriage.

But Nuwa, who always avoids causes and effects, how could she help Xi He?

Xuanqing was completely puzzled.

After thinking it over, he decided to consult directly with Nuwa.

He took out Nuwa’s statue, bowed respectfully, and said: "Disciple has a question to ask, please manifest, Holy Mother!"

Silence!

Other than silence, there was still silence!

Nuwa didn’t seem to want to respond to him, or perhaps she did not hear his call.

Having no other choice, he took out the Mountain and River Map, attempting to refine its restrictions: "Disciple has a question to ask, please appear, Holy Mother!"

"What is it?"

This time, Nuwa’s statue finally reacted: "Have I not said that I would not involve myself in the affairs of the Human Race or the Demon Clan?"

In the void, suddenly auspicious energies proliferated, and endless creation swirled.

Xuanqing quickly bowed again: "Disciple has a question about the Great Dao of Marriage, and wishes to consult with the Holy Mother! The Heavenly Empress Xi He, in order to seek revenge, established a marriage connection through the Good Corpse Chang’e with the Great Witch Hou Yi. Disciple wishes to ask whether this red thread of marriage is related to the Holy Mother! Disciple also fears disrupting the Holy Mother’s plans!"

"Xi He?"

Nuwa’s figure shook its head and then spoke: "This matter is unrelated to me! However, it’s a pity that Xi He is deeply mired in hatred!"

Being one of the top goddesses in the Primordial era, Nuwa naturally had some connections with Xi He, otherwise, she would not have witnessed their divine marriage...

"The red thread!"

Nuwa seemed to recall something, frowned, and said: "That red thread appears to be a congratulatory gift I gave to her and Emperor Jun when they were divinely united!"
