Chapter 133: Sacrificing Treasure to Protect Sister
Heng Ming was stunned for a moment and asked in surprise: "You are willing to give up the Zhoutian Xingchen Fruit Tree just to exchange for the chance for your two sisters to live? How can you know that your two sisters will definitely die?"
Nuwa also felt that this matter was too absurd.
After all, Xihe and Changxi are Taiyin Star Gods, the top innate gods in the prehistoric world. How could they die so easily? What's the difference between this and giving them away for free?
Wangshu's request was too simple, which made them feel that there was something fishy going on.
Wangshu sighed quietly, her face becoming more lonely, her beautiful face filled with sorrow, her beautiful eyes filled with sadness. Seeing such an expression on the face of a goddess who used to be cold and arrogant could almost move the heaven and earth.
"It's just my duty as a sister."
Wangshu's eyes were blurred as she thought of the experience of the three sisters seeking the truth on the Moon in the past. That experience was the happiest moment in her life. As sisters together, they were not afraid of going anywhere, because they always had someone to rely on.
Until Di Jun came to Taiyin Star, everything changed instantly.
Her two younger sisters were immediately attracted to Di Jun and fell in love with him. It was nonsense to say that Wangshu had never had any thoughts about Di Jun. The attraction between yin and yang was God's will, and God's will was hard to defy, so how could it be separated so easily?
But since her two younger sisters wanted it, she, as the elder sister, naturally had to fulfill their wish. However, she had never thought of marrying her two younger sisters to Di Jun. She heard that Di Jun had a younger brother named Taiyi, so she thought that marrying one of them would be the right thing to do.
But what she could never tolerate was that Xihe and Changxi actually wanted the three sisters to marry the same husband, and in the future they would always talk about Di Jun, completely putting the sisterhood aside. This was something Wangshu could never tolerate. How could instinctive attraction be compared with sisterhood!
This is also the reason why she hates Di Jun so much.
Because she felt that it was Di Jun who took away her two sisters, and it was Di Jun who made them so estranged from each other, leaving her alone and helpless from then on, and she had to practice alone for the rest of her life.
But her sister is her sister after all. No matter how angry Wangshu is, she has to make plans for both of them.
Since the first time she saw Hengming and Nuwa, Wangshu knew that these two were definitely not the kind of people who would be content to be second to others, and they certainly had no intention of harboring any feelings towards the demon clan. Her sister was about to marry into the demon clan and become the Demon Queen. If these two destroyed the demon clan, Di Jun would surely die, and how could these two Taoist companions of Di Jun continue to survive?
So even if it was just for a possibility, she was willing to give up such a divine object as the Zhoutian Star Fruit Tree. To her, as long as her sister could survive, that was more important than any treasure.
When Nuwa saw Wangshu's expression, she understood her thoughts, and Xinzhou resonated with her to some extent.
Thinking back to when Fuxi joined the demon clan, she also tried to persuade him every day, even scolding and beating him, but failed to wake him up. If she hadn't joined the demon clan, she would probably be disappointed with Fuxi today.
Hengming didn't have so many thoughts. Since Wangshu's request was so simple, he would naturally agree, but he had to say something ugly in advance.
"If that's all you ask, I can agree to it." Heng Ming nodded and said, "But I have to remind you that if Chang Xixi and he seek death when we are destroying the demon race, we can't save them. If they stand in our way, we won't hold back. Do you understand?"
Wangshu was silent for a while, but finally nodded: "If they want to die, it's really not your fault."
Heng Ming smiled with satisfaction, "It's good that you can figure it out, but the disaster energy in the prehistoric world is gradually rising, and chaos is about to occur. You should not go out to Taiyin Star anymore. You should close the cave door and practice with all your heart."
Hengming's meaning was very clear, that is, he wanted Wangshu to never leave Taiyin Star, or even Guanghan Palace. After all, he and Nuwa had just admitted that they would defeat the demon clan in the future. If Wangshu often went out and made friends with Taoist friends, how could the two of them feel at ease?
If some rumors arise, don't blame Hengming for being ruthless.
Wangshu nodded quickly, his face showing a sad and cold expression again, and he said, "Brother, you don't need to remind me, I will not go out. The prehistoric world is in chaos, and the Moon Star needs my protection. This is a seed of the Zhoutian Star Fruit Tree, which contains vitality. Brother, you can use this seed to find the fruit tree, but there is a huge and mysterious formation outside the fruit tree. I have tried my best but cannot overcome it, so I am reminding you here."
Then Wangshu stretched out a bare hand with his palm facing up. On his palm there was a magical seed that looked like a star. Although it was only three inches in size, the power contained in it was endless, as vast and boundless as the starry sky.
Hengming's eyebrows moved, and he picked up the seed to take a look. He found that in the depths of the endless power, there was a trace of imperceptible vitality. It was indeed a living seed, not a dead seed.
The fruits of all the spiritual roots in the world are the condensation of power. Even if there are seeds inside them, they are lifeless. No matter how many treasures are used to irrigate them, they cannot take root and sprout. They can be said to be dead seeds.
Although reproduction is the instinct of all living things, this instinct does not include innate sacredness and innate spiritual roots.
If an innate god gives birth to offspring, then these offspring must share their own luck. The more offspring, the more luck they will share. Moreover, the offspring also need to be irrigated by the origin before they are born. Giving birth to one or two is enough to affect the path. Naturally, not many innate gods are willing to give birth to offspring.
The same goes for innate spiritual roots. Unless the spiritual root itself is on the verge of death, immortality will not condense a living seed. For example, the Five Elements Fruit Tree in Hengming's hand was the predecessor of the Five Elements Patriarch, who knew that he would die and condensed a living seed just before his death.
Dou Mu Yuan Jun was willing to give birth to a child, not only because she was the incarnation of the most primitive motherhood, but also because all the children she conceived were spontaneously split from the infinite starry sky, which was equivalent to borrowing her belly to be born. Otherwise, Dou Mu Yuan Jun would not be willing to give birth to a child. "This Zhoutian Xingchen Fruit Tree actually has a living seed. Is the fruit tree itself dying?"
Hengming thought.
Wangshu seemed to know what Hengming was wondering, and said, "I don't know why the Star Fruit Tree gave birth to a living seed. I accidentally obtained this living seed when I was contemplating the formation outside the fruit tree one day. I apologize for the inconvenience."
After hearing this, Heng Ming smiled generously and said, "I am already very grateful to you for giving me this seed. How dare I blame you? Now that this matter is over, I and Sister Nuwa will leave."
Wangshu nodded, but didn't try to persuade him to stay.
After all, she had already done what she had to do. The next step was to comply with the two's request and stay indoors. Naturally, she would not say any more polite words.
Heng Ming and the other two did not hesitate, they stood up and walked towards the outside of Guanghan Palace. The other two girls saw this and hurriedly went to greet them. Chang Xi smiled earnestly and said, "Why do you two brothers and sisters have to leave so quickly? Why don't you have a banquet with my three sisters?"
Xihe also said: "Please also ask the two senior brothers and sisters to stay at Yuzhi for a while, otherwise other fellow practitioners will definitely laugh at my sisters for being impolite."
Their idea was very simple. After all, one of them would be the master of ceremonies at their wedding in the future, and the other would be one of the six emperors of heaven. Naturally, they had to build good relationships and make good friends.
No matter how Hengming and Nuwa tried to refuse, the two women refused to let them go. Seeing that they could not get away with it, the two had to stay in Guanghan Palace for several days, and finally left with an excuse.
The two stood on a small star, and Nuwa sighed, "No wonder Wangshu was willing to give up the Zhoutian Star Fruit Tree in exchange for a talisman for the sisters. These two sisters are so innocent. Although they were somewhat hostile to us before, they were only doing it for their loved ones. Now they are so happy, which shows that they are pure in heart."
Hengming didn't care much about this. "If they were just innate saints, Taiyin Star Lords, and had pure minds, it wouldn't be a problem. But the two of them are about to go to the Heavenly Palace to become the Queen of Heaven and the Queen of Demons. The things they are in are a million times more complicated than now. They are still so innocent and optimistic. They will definitely suffer a lot in the future. Well, since the two have made their decision, there is no need for you and me to say more. Junior sister, do you want to go with me to find fruit trees in the starry sky?"
Nuwa was somewhat tempted after hearing this, but still shook her head and said, "I have to go back to Heaven to explain the whole matter to Emperor Jun. Moreover, Senior Brother has already awakened Fuxi. I have to go back to Heaven to use the Demon Summoning Banner to absorb the demons. Senior Brother can only go alone."
After hearing this, Heng Ming just smiled and said, "I believe that the name of Queen Wa will be known throughout the demon clan from today on. I'm leaving now."
Nuwa nodded, and saw Hengming turned into a ray of light and spread out in and out of the starry sky, and she also went to the heaven again.
Hongjun's preaching has ended. Soon he will be in harmony with the Way of Heaven. It is time for these future saints to show their power.
Hengming entered an ancient star and with a pinch of his fingers, the endless star power in this giant star surged and finally poured into the seed in his hand.
In theory, although the ancient stars are not as noble and great as the three supreme stars, they are not something that Hengming can easily shake. However, this treasure seems to be born with the ability to command the stars. Hengming uses the treasure to cast spells, so this giant star can only contribute the power of the stars obediently.
Nourished by endless star power, this star-like seed kept jumping, as if it was about to jump into another time and space. It emitted faint starlight, which appeared particularly dazzling in the dark starry sky.
The starlight condensed but did not disperse. It slowly stretched and finally turned into a long line, extending into the invisible depths of darkness.
Hengming knew that the destination of this long line was the Zhoutian Star Fruit Tree, so without hesitation, he immediately turned into a ball of clear light and escaped.
Wangshu once said that if one wanted to use this seed to go to the Zhoutian Star Fruit Tree, one only needed to use the star power contained in the ancient stars to stimulate it, and it would attract the attention of the Zhoutian Star Fruit Tree. Under the instinctive call, signs would naturally appear.
Now it seems that it is indeed the case.
Although this star line is conspicuous, the vastness of the boundless starry sky is incomparable to the earth and the four seas. In the eternally silent black starry sky, this star line seems so insignificant.
"It's strange. I'm afraid the Zhoutian Star Fruit Tree's call has no good intentions. I'm afraid it just wants to absorb the seed again instead of nurturing it."
Hengming's conclusion was not groundless. If one were to ask himself, if a strand of his own origin had developed self-awareness and wanted to transform into a human, he would probably kill it without hesitation.
How serious is the origin of the split? Naturally, there can be no loss. I am afraid that the Zhoutian Star Fruit Tree also condensed this living seed unintentionally. When it was about to kill it, it was taken by Wangshu. Now there is an opportunity to kill it again, so naturally there will be no hesitation.
