Nezha saw the Zhao Gongming siblings and was a bit puzzled. What kind of big matter was this?
All four siblings showed up?
Nezha first greeted Yunxiao with a bow and said, "Sister Yun."
Then ca Old Zhao, No Brainer, and Unhappy.
No Brainer and Unhappy were instantly displeased—they had no semblance of requesting help—and flanked Nezha on both sides, asking unhappily: "Why do you call the eldest sister ’Sister Yun’ but not us?"
Nezha looked at the two protectors on either side and thought to himself, "Do you two even have the slightest resemblance to elder sisters?"
But a wise man doesn’t argue in the face of trouble—their age is leagues ahead of even his ancestors—calling them "sister" wouldn’t really be a loss.
"Sister Bixiao, Sister Qiong Xiao, greetings."
The two happily acknowledged it. Qiong Xiao, being the youngest of the four siblings, was ecstatic upon hearing soone call her "sister."
She kept patting her small chest, declaring, "From now on, you’re under my protection. If anyone bullies you, just co find .
If I can’t handle it, I still have my big brother and big sister!"
After exchanging greetings, Yunxiao—the brains of the four siblings and the closest to Nezha—spoke up to explain their purpose.
She didn’t demand the Ocean Stabilizing Divine Pearls outright but explained that her brother had discovered an opportunity to break through, and it seed to be linked to the Divine Pearls.
Therefore, they sought out Nezha. If he could "locate" them, the siblings were willing to exchange any magical treasure and even owe him a favor.
Nezha understood Yunxiao’s intention, but he felt sothing was off. Zhao Gongming’s breakthrough was indeed related to the Divine Pearls, but it didn’t necessarily involve the twelve Pearls he possessed.
After so thought, Nezha asked, "I an, is there a possibility that Brother Zhao’s breakthrough opportunity is not tied to the thirty-six Ocean Stabilizing Pearls?"
Yunxiao and Zhao Gongming exchanged puzzled looks.
Nezha realized that words alone wouldn’t convince the siblings to confront Randeng, so he said, "The Three Emperors of the Human Clan reside in Fire Cloud Cave. Among them, Fu Xi Heavenly Emperor is especially skilled at divination and calculations. Why don’t we visit Fire Cloud Cave to request his elder guidance?"
Zhao Gongming attained enlightennt during the Heavenly Emperor Era, reaching the Daluo Golden Immortal cultivation level—a state of immortality in every sense. Whether he could revive after being taken down was another matter entirely.
He knew of Fu Xi Heavenly Emperor’s abilities, but would Fu Xi give him favor to perform a calculation?
Definitely not, but Nezha could manage it. His frequent visits to Fire Cloud Cave had never raised any issues. All his knowledge of divination ca from his uncle’s teachings.
"This matter is on ," Nezha said confidently.
Zhao Gongming cheerfully replied, "Thank you, Brother Nezha! Regardless of the outco, I owe you a favor for this. Just say the word, and I’ll gladly help you anyti!"
Nezha responded modestly, "Brother Zhao is too courteous. Without Sister Yun’s guidance on arrays earlier, I wouldn’t have progressed so swiftly."
Hearing Nezha praise his younger sister, Zhao Gongming was even more delighted: "Hahaha, my little sister’s array mastery is extraordinary—top-notch even within the Jie Sect. If there’s a chance, I’ll have her teach you more."
Yu Yuan looked at the overly joyful Zhao Gongming and thought, "This guy is way too carefree. Let’s see if you’re still smiling when your sister gets snatched away."
Following this thought, Yu Yuan returned to Golden Turtle Island. After his severe injuries from the last battle, he was basically off the field—it wasn’t smart to wander aimlessly anymore.
Nezha led the four siblings to Fire Cloud Cave.
Fire Cloud Cave generally didn’t allow outsiders in, but Nezha entered as if wandering into his own ho—no issues there. He sought out his ntor.
Nuwa’s attitude seed to be, "You roam around here often, and even the Heavenly Dao doesn’t bother with you anymore."
The four siblings waited outside.
Entering Fire Cloud Cave felt perfectly natural for Nezha; he first located his uncle Fu Xi.
Seeing Nezha again didn’t surprise Fu Xi. He figured the young man must have encountered another problem. Fu Xi greatly admired Nezha for his diligence and eagerness to learn.
Nezha didn’t beat around the bush while casually munching on fruits grown by his third uncle. He said, "Uncle, here’s the situation. I have a sister nad Yunxiao. She’s a big admirer of my ntor—she even has a mount descended from Sister Xiaoqing. She also has a brother, who’s... not very talented, nor particularly special. But his greatest rit is that he’s really good to his sisters and listens to them completely.
This ti, he suddenly had so breakthrough insight, but it’s vague. Sister Yunxiao ca to , hoping I could ask you to help divine the matter and see what’s going on."
Nezha never even ntioned Zhao Gongming’s na. Zhao Gongming? Who’s that?
Fu Xi, as the Primordial realm’s number one "sister-doting elder brother," felt an imdiate kinship upon hearing Nezha’s words. His own sister, Nuwa, had gone to great lengths to look after him.
Help? Of course, he’d help.
Fu Xi took out the River Map and Luo Book and began to deduce. A hazy radiance enveloped the great hall; each faint stream of light carried imnse information. Nezha felt dizzy from only a minor perception.
After a while, a nebulous ball of information erged in the center. Nezha hurriedly recorded it in the Mountain and River Map.
After thanking his uncle, he visited his second uncle to inquire about cultivating spirit plants, specifically the Fusang Tree Branch, and then proceeded to his third uncle, the Yellow Emperor.
The Yellow Emperor rummaged around mysteriously for a while before secretly handing a small pouch to Nezha.
Nezha used his Divine Sense to inspect its contents, and with a sharp intake of breath, he smiled broadly and gave his uncle a thumbs-up.
The Yellow Emperor shot Nezha a knowing, mischievous glance.
Originally, Nezha planned to return the Xuanyuan Sword, but his third uncle didn’t even care about it, indicating that Nezha could keep playing with it—it wasn’t of much use in his hands anyway.
Nezha then shared so progress from his experints in South Capital, prompting the Yellow Emperor to critique the results and suggest records to avoid redundant inventions.
His tour around Fire Cloud Cave proved fruitful, but Nezha purposefully strolled out slowly; after all, one shouldn’t appear to have an easy ti helping others.
The four siblings didn’t have to wait for long. As Nezha erged, he unveiled the Mountain and River Map, displaying the recorded imagery.
All four siblings leaned in to take a look.
No Brainer and Unhappy—a Golden Immortal and a Taiyi Golden Immortal—couldn’t comprehend much but were naturally curious.
Zhao Gongming managed to discern a little, though not much.
Yunxiao relied on her cultivation to forcefully observe.
After a discussion, the siblings concluded that the breakthrough wasn’t tied to the remaining twelve Ocean Stabilizing Divine Pearls but rather to a ruler.
The siblings were dumbfounded. A ruler?
In this vast Primordial realm, where would one find a magical treasure shaped like a ruler?
And how would the ruler pair with the pearls?
Yunxiao determined that since they knew it was a ruler, it would be found eventually—they were least concerned about running out of ti. As for how it worked? That could be figured out after acquiring the ruler.
"Brother Nezha, we’re so grateful to you. The matter of the Divine Pearls is no longer relevant. Your assistance ans the world to us siblings, and we will repay you in full. Whatever you need in the future, we’ll be there."
Old Zhao was more straightforward, pounding his chest and declaring, "Brother Nezha, if you ever have trouble, co to . We’re family—it’ll be taken care of in a word!"
