Chapter 412: Chapter 100: The Restless Witch Demon

The succession of the Human Emperor has led Fuxi to confirm his path to the Primordial Chaos. Such a major event has shocked all the forces throughout the Huaxia Land.

In the land of the Western Extreme Little Beiming.

Within the massive Sun Palace, Kunpeng and Taiyi sit opposite each other, the tea that was served has long turned cold, making the spacious and empty hall seem somewhat desolate.

"Your Majesty, it seems that the Three Emperors and Five Emperors of the Human Clan are not so simple after all!" Kunpeng, with a sinister face, stares fixedly at the teacup before him, his voice cold, yet the corner of his mouth reveals a strange smile.

Taiyi pinches the River Diagram and Luo Book that has just flown back and coldly says, "The Merit earned by the Human Emperor has allowed Fuxi to confirm his path to the Primordial Chaos directly, this is simply too terrifying! You know, Heavenly Dao established the positions of the Three Emperors and Five Emperors. That’s a total of eight Human Emperors. If every subsequent Human Emperor can obtain such immense Merit, won’t the Human Clan have eight Saints? Our Demon Race will never have a day of ascending!"

"Your Majesty, you are wrong!" Kunpeng is silent for a moment, then speaks.

"Hmm?" Taiyi looks at Kunpeng with confusion and asks, "What’s wrong?"

With an ugly smile, Kunpeng says, "Although Fuxi’s confirmation of his path is somewhat related to his virtuous deeds over thousands of years, don’t forget. Standing behind him are the Taiching Saint and Lady Nuwa! Without their protection, do you think he could receive such great Merit?"

"Ch!" Kunpeng sneers and continues, "Not to mention the natural disaster in Dongsheng Divine Continent that year, even in the battle of the Yin Yang Realm over two hundred years ago, his Human Clan would have been annihilated completely! Without the protection of a Saint, could he, Fuxi, have preserved the Human Clan? Ridiculous!"

Taiyi’s eyes light up as he looks at Kunpeng and says, "You mean to say?"

Kunpeng nods and replies, "Your Majesty, if the subsequent Human Emperors lack the protection of Saints, with the power of our kind, isn’t it easy to turn the tide at will?"

Taiyi slams his hand on the table, exclaiming excitedly, "Right, how could I have not thought of this?"

However, he soon frowns and says, "But the current Human Emperor Shennong, being a disciple of Qingmingzi, Fellow Daoist, we cannot take action against him!"

"Your Majesty, we might as well forget about the Three Emperors. But those Five Emperors..." Kunpeng glances at Taiyi and speaks coldly.

In the Netherworld, a gathering place for the Witch Tribe.

"Xingtian, what do you think of this Human Clan?" A burly man with bullhorns on his head stands before a crystal-clear pond, pointing at the high platform where Fuxi, exuding infinite authority, is located.

Xingtian wipes the Gan Qi in his hands and glances at the burly man, saying, "Chi You, the Human Clan reveres Lord Qingming as the Holy Father. They were brothers and allies of our Witch Tribe thousands of years ago. What opinion could I possibly have?"

"This world should originally belong to us, Pangu’s Descendants! The Human Clan, merely a postnatal creation, how could they assume the role of master over Huaxia?" Chi You’s eyes flash with intensity as boundless Evil Qi emanates from his body.

"Silence!" Xingtian is shocked and nervously looks around, saying, "The Earth Queen is also considered the Human Clan’s Holy Mother. If Lady hears such rebellious and absurd remarks, you are done for!"

"Hmph! Am I wrong?" Chi You coldly snorts in discontent, saying, "Father God Pangu transformed into the Primordial Land, being a direct descendant of Father God, shouldn’t we be the ones to preside over the Huaxia Land?"

Hearing this, Xingtian helplessly shakes his head and says, "Since Father God has become the Primordial Land, all creatures born from it are naturally Father God’s descendants and are qualified to govern the Huaxia Land. Chi You, don’t be deluded! We have promised Earth Queen that without her command, without the command of Taoist Ancestor Hong Jun, we shall not step half a foot out of the Netherworld! Do you wish to bring calamity upon our Witch Tribe?"

"Humph!" Chi You’s face turned iron blue as he waved his hand to shatter the image in the water pond, and angrily left.

Xingtian rose to his feet and was about to give chase. Suddenly, his vision blurred, and a woman appeared before him. She wore a pink skirt and emitted an aura of dignified sanctity, untainted by the slightest whiff of mortal dust.

Xingtian was taken aback and immediately knelt to the ground, saying, "Xingtian pays respects to Earth Queen!"

Indeed, the woman who suddenly appeared in the pink skirt was none other than Earth Queen herself.

A trace of faint sorrow flowed from Houtu’s eyes as she watched Chi You’s retreating figure and said, "Fate, everything is fate! Let him go!"

...

Since Emperor Fuxi’s abdication, Shennong, the leader of the Lie Mountain Tribe, donned the dragon robe and became the next Human Emperor after Feng Yan Fuxi, honored with the title Earth Emperor.

Over the years, under the leadership of Shennong, the Human Clan gradually emerged from a primitive civilization of consuming raw flesh and blood and stepped into the agricultural civilization. He planted mulberries and pioneered and improved the cultivation techniques of the Five Grains. From then on, the Human Clan enjoyed bumper harvests of grains and thrived with livestock, no longer needing to worry about battling with the beast tribes outside.

East Sea Penglai Island.

Li Qingming, holding the hand of Wang Shu, strolled along the quiet and silent banks of the Lotus Pond.

Throughout these years, Li Qingming felt he owed Wang Shu an apology; ever since their marriage, he had been busy planning for the future, never considering her feelings.

"Qingming, mother plants new flowers and plants every day. Just a few days ago, she even compiled a ’Hundred Herbs of China’," Wang Shu said, tilting her head to glance at Li Qingming’s profile, suddenly breaking into a sweet smile.

"That old fellow Yang Mei is just like a willow tree spirit; apart from flowers, plants, and trees, he cares about nothing else! The more he teaches, the more he corrupts my mother too!" Li Qingming shrugged helplessly, suddenly regretting making Yang Mei his mother’s master.

"It’s not that exaggerated!" Wang Shu chuckled lightly, pulling out a thin, delicate cloth scroll and said, "Mother asked me to give you this ’Hundred Herbs of China.’ She said you’ll need it in the future!"

Li Qingming was startled, thinking, "Need this? What do I need this for?"

Suddenly, he frowned as he remembered Shennong, whom he had forgotten about for over a century. Wasn’t there a legend of Shennong tasting herbs in his previous life’s chronicles? Wouldn’t this book be perfectly suited for Shennong?

With growing joy in his heart, Li Qingming scooped up Wang Shu and planted a firm kiss on her stunning face, saying, "Let’s go find mother!"

Coincidentally, although Shennong had learned the ’Hundred Herbs Record’ from Guang Chengzi, which had been passed down to his mother, and had already begun to create a foundation for the medical arts, he found himself perplexed by certain difficult diseases, struggling to prescribe treatments or find the right herbs for the ailments. This led to many of his clan members dying helplessly from diseases.

Shennong was once again in a dilemma.

"Although I possess the cultivation of the Da Luo Realm and can easily cure diseases, it’s better to teach fishing than to give fish. I can’t always stay within the tribe and cure your illnesses; ultimately, the Human Clan must rely on itself!" Shennong knitted his brows tightly, almost forming a "川" shape, thinking hard but failing to come up with any solutions.

"Sigh, seems like I have no choice but to ask for help from Master!" (To be continued. If you like this work, you are welcome to vote for recommendation tickets and monthly tickets at Qidian (qidian.com). Your support is my greatest motivation. Mobile users, please go to m.qidian.com to read.)
