Capítulo 1119: Chapter 489: Just Tagging Along, Not Following the Script (Part 2)
It’s obvious everyone is just tagging along!
The White Lotus said, “Although I learn slowly, I have co to understand the language of this place sowhat.”
The eight people of the Lu Clan couldn’t help but look at Zheng Fa, their eyes carrying so degree of mockery.
Zheng Fa remained unmoved. He knew that the language barrier was not completely insurmountable — this group before him were chosen from millions by Xuanwei for their great power.
They have been here for over half a year, and even if they initially communicated with gestures, it’s not surprising they can now understand so daily expressions.
The Creation Taoist then asked, “What about the other fellow Daoists?”
The Gu God and the White Bone Demon Ancestor were silent for a mont before the Gu God said, “We are also gathering information, but haven’t gained much yet.”
Her words sounded sowhat less than honest.
The eight people of the Lu Clan also said, “We are also learning the language of this place.”
The Creation Taoist shook his head, “I too have not gained anything significant, so it seems Dapeng Daoist and White Lotus Daoist have made so progress.”
The gathering in the hall nodded slightly, then heard the Creation Taoist say, “Why don’t you all talk about your experiences?”
The people exchanged glances, aware that everyone returned for this purpose — to exchange information.
Although they harbored their own agendas and did not trust each other, their goals regarding obtaining the Hongng Purple Qi were aligned.
Zheng Fa thought for a mont and first spoke about the news he heard from the Witch Clan, listening attentively to the Golden Winged Great Peng — after all, he was here to help the Demon Race unite the world, and the Witch Clan was naturally a great enemy.
After he finished, the others also spoke about so things they encountered, despite surely holding so things back, Zheng Fa still listened intently.
The Gu God suddenly ntioned a piece of news which instantly caught his attention:
“Nuwa seems to be wandering around the East Sea these years and hasn’t returned to the Demon Court for a long ti.”
In Zheng Fa’s heart rose great turbulence as he looked towards the others. The Creation Taoist and a few others were also interested in this news, as Nuwa was one of the six sitting on ditation cushions, clearly a significant figure in this world.
They discussed it for a while but didn’t dwell on it, rely wanting to find an opportunity to seek their fortune.
…
Once away from the Five Viscera Temple, Zheng Fa directly flew towards the East Sea.
Actually, Zheng Fa’s primary target was Nuwa, but unlike the formidable existence of Houtu, Nuwa, although not alone, had already transcended the world, rely a titular figure within the Demon Race, and her whereabouts were hard to find.
So he planned to find Houtu first, but unexpectedly heard news of Nuwa from the Gu God.
In Zheng Fa’s eyes, in terms of great rit, no one could surpass Nuwa!
If the legends were true, truly being sanctified by great rit, only Nuwa could achieve it alone, while Houtu Ancestor Witch counted as only half.
Even rubbing against Nuwa’s favor might accumulate rit.
The ancient Immortal World was truly vast, taking him half a year to travel from the Five Viscera Temple to the coast of the East Sea.
After searching near the East Sea for another month, he finally saw Nuwa.
She was strolling leisurely along the coastline, her brow furrowed as if troubled by so unsolvable matter.
“Madam.”
Zheng Fa fell before Nuwa, cupping his hands in greeting.
“It’s you.” Seeing him, Nuwa’s gaze softened, but the furrow on her brow remained, “Did you co looking for ?”
“…Yes.”
Although he still hadn’t figured out in what form Nuwa currently existed, her keen perception astonished Zheng Fa, preventing him from concealing anything.
“Hmm, that woman who resembles soone from the Witch Clan also ca looking for .” Nuwa nodded, saying.
Soone resembling the Witch Clan, a woman, could it be the Gu God?
It seems the Gu God sowhat mastered the language here too?
Zheng Fa mused inwardly as he heard Nuwa ask, “Did you all co for the seventh ditation cushion?”
Zheng Fa slowly raised his head, seeing Nuwa look at him with eyes seemingly omniscient.
“Madam?”
Nuwa bent down, picked up a seashell at her feet, and looked at its patterns in her palm.
“She told many things; I hadn’t realized people of the future wouldn’t know our nas, and you co from a place called Xuanwei.”
Upon hearing this, Zheng Fa couldn’t help curse inwardly —
This Gu God spilled everything after being fed.
In simple terms, the Gu God probably noticed these Saints’ interest in future affairs, therefore she divulged everything to curry favor with Nuwa.
This greatly complicated Zheng Fa’s rit-seeking plan.
Seeing his expression, Nuwa sighed lightly, “So it’s true, in the future, no one rembers us anymore.”
“…Not no one.”
“You know ?”
“Yes.”
Zheng Fa whispered.
“That woman sought rit and I gave her a chance.” Nuwa didn’t ask much, seemingly uninterested, rely gazing towards the sea, “I asked her, since I already sensed my opportunity for enlightennt, yet there’s a problem I cannot solve, could she tell the answer.”
Upon hearing this, Zheng Fa was excited; the Gu God didn’t know, but he knew all too well — creation of humanity!
He had the standard answer from the future, ready to say it when —
Nuwa continued, “I asked her, back when I heard the teachings in the Purple Cloud Palace, I had already comprehended that my path is in creation.”
“Now, despite the overwhelming dominance of the Witch and Demon clans, and I reluctantly count as part of the Demon Clan, these two clans are each barbarous and fierce, far from the Way. Should they beco rulers, it might not benefit all beings.”
“I asked her if she had any solutions. She couldn’t answer, only said she didn’t know.”
She doesn’t know, but I do!
This was an open-book test; with just two simple words, he could successfully gain a significant rit!
Suddenly, Nuwa said, “In fact, I realized long ago, creation of humanity.”
“…”
Zheng Fa stared blankly at Nuwa, feeling as if she was toying with him, answering her own questions, as expected of a powerful figure!
Seemingly amused by his expression, Nuwa chuckled lightly and shook her head, “I felt sothing upon seeing you all.”
Zheng Fa suddenly had so understanding.
“Most of you are neither Innate Divine nor from the Demon or Witch Clans.” Nuwa looked afar, her eyes distant, “Yet you managed to co from the future, indicating significant strength among the future cultivators…”
“There’s only one explanation…” Nuwa looked at Zheng Fa, understanding clear in her eyes, “You are the main characters of the future world, perhaps even the sole protagonist.”
“…”
Zheng Fa was stunned.
He thought the mories in his mind were the answers.
But he didn’t expect that when they appeared before Nuwa, everything laid bare before the future Saint.
Even they themselves were the answer!
Seeing his dazed expression, Nuwa lightly shook her head, motioning for him to follow, and they walked slowly by the sea. Zheng Fa had a thousand words, all condensed into one question:
“Madam, since you knew long ago…”
Nuwa turned her head towards Zheng Fa, “You an why I haven’t sanctified through creation?”
“Yes.”
Nuwa turned back to look at the sky: “This is precisely the question I wanted to ask you.”
“What?”
“Why must I sanctify through creation?”
“…”
Zheng Fa listened increasingly bewildered, unable for a mont to grasp the aning of Nuwa’s words.
Suddenly, Nuwa stopped: “If what you know of the past is true, that I should create humanity, sanctify, and then what?”
“…And then?”
“Given that we will perish, what difference does it make whether I create humanity or not?” Nuwa’s question struck Zheng Fa deeply, “Or rather, is creating humanity truly the right thing?”
Zheng Fa gazed at Nuwa.
Her eyes were lively, dignified, with an expression of deep confusion on her face as she stared into the distance.
In Zheng Fa’s view, this Saint who had vanished across the ten thousand worlds was astonishingly lifelike, and due to their arrival, even questioned her own path.
The Witch Clan were too dull to communicate, but Lady Nuwa was too intelligent.
He initially thought this illusion realm was just a script, and by holding the answers from the future, he could easily breeze through.
Until now, he realized it was far from the case.
He wasn’t holding a fill-in-the-blank exam, where rely writing “creation of humanity” in the blank was sufficient.
Instead, he was facing a proof question: why create humanity?
As everyone knows, proof questions are the most difficult.
