Chapter 210 Xihe Sends a Child into Taisu
However, Changnu was unwilling to personally perform sexual acts with Houyi. She was a disciple of Taiyin, Youying, and the descendant of the sage Hengming. How could she hang out with such a vulgar person? Wouldn't that be a loss of status?
Changnu glanced around for thousands of miles and then saw the corpse of a human woman. She went forward and saw that the corpse had decent aptitude and was born with a ray of starlight from the moon. It was just destined to be with her, so she went to live with Houyi.
"As expected, someone gave me a pillow just as I was dozing off. Since you have taken my place today, I will not treat you unfairly in the future. From now on, you will be called Chang'e, and you will become a Taoist partner with Hou Yi."
After Changnu finished speaking, she pinched her fingers to form a magic formula, and the long arrow in her hand immediately penetrated into the female corpse. The female corpse opened her eyes after a moment, and her shape and appearance changed rapidly. In the end, she was 90% similar to Changnu.
Chang'e bowed slightly to Changnu and said, "I will follow your instructions, but Chang'e doesn't know how to approach Houyi. Houyi is a great witch, so how can he be interested in an ordinary human like me?"
Changnu said, "You don't need to approach Houyi. Houyi received the merit of shooting down the sun, and the Sun-Shooting Bow shared the merit with him. You have the spirit of the tenth Sunset Arrow in your body, and you also have a connection with the Sun-Shooting Bow.
Hou Yi will definitely meet you due to fate. This is what my teacher told me. You just need to live peacefully among the human race, and Hou Yi will naturally come to you. "
Chang'e nodded and said, "Chang'e knows."
Afterwards, Changnu brought Chang'e to a human tribe that had not been affected yet, and found a secluded place for them to live nearby.
She wanted to take this opportunity to learn the methods of her master to control all living beings. She could not lose face in front of other saints and disciples, otherwise she would bring shame to her master and her grandfather.
heaven.
Since Xihe returned to heaven, she has been staying indoors in the Queen Mother's Palace with Lu Ya. No one knows what the Queen Mother is doing. Even when Changxi, her twin sister, came to visit, Xihe refused to see her.
Ten years passed before the Tianhou Palace was opened today. Xihe walked out with a frosty face, holding the hand of Lu Ya, who had transformed into a golden-haired child. The mother and son walked towards the sky step by step, and the direction they were heading was Taisu Heaven.
A divine fire light suddenly appeared, and it was Emperor Jun who stopped them. The Emperor asked, "Queen, where are you taking the prince?"
The Queen said coldly: "Of course we have to let the prince go to a place where he can survive. In the entire prehistoric world, apart from Taisu Heaven, is there any other place related to the demon race that is safe?"
Di Jun's eyebrows ached slightly, but he still patiently advised: "The demon clan is now ready to attack, and they will soon wipe out the witch clan. Why do you want to take Lu Ya to Taisu Heaven? Once in Taisu Heaven, how can Lu Ya go out at will? Can you bear to separate mother and son?"
"I can't bear it, but if it's for his life, then I can be cruel."
Xihe's words were still very cold: "Don't try to fool me. You can't just kill the Wu Clan at will. Let's not talk about whether they will come to attack us like last time. Just think about exterminating the clan. How can you have a fluke? When you destroy the Wu Clan, Lu Ya will naturally be able to leave Taisutian and return to the Heavenly Palace. But what if you lose? Wouldn't it mean that my only child will die with me? Dijun, you are more cruel than me."
Seeing that he could not persuade Xihe, Di Jun had no choice but to give way. But when Xihe left, Di Jun still said: "Don't forget your responsibilities as the Queen of Heaven."
Xihe replied: "I will never forget it."
Then Xihe took Lu Ya and soared into the sky, heading for Taisu Heaven above the starry sky.
Looking at Xihe's departing back, Di Jun was silent for a long time, and then returned to the Emperor's Palace.
Looking at the many stars passing by along the way, Xihe felt as if she had passed away. It seemed that since she got married, she had never gone to the boundless starry sky to see the many stars again, but only looked at the shining stars from afar in the heavenly palace.
But this was her favorite thing to do in the past, but now she has forgotten it.
As Xihe passed by, countless stars began to shine, as if welcoming the long-awaited emperor.
Although the emperor may forget his subjects, his subjects will always remember the emperor.
"It turns out that there are still people who can remember me, even though it's just Xingchen..."
In the silence, Xihe accidentally came to a silver-white giant star. Looking at this silver-white giant star, she was in a trance for a moment.
This is the Moon, the place where she was born.
Xihe gently picked up Lu Ya and said softly, "Would you like to go to the Moon with your mother?"
Lu Ya nodded silently.
He seemed to be still immersed in the nightmare of ten years ago. Even today, he looked drowsy, with dim eyes without a trace of light, as if his spirituality had been completely extinguished, and his whole body was as stiff as a walking corpse.
Seeing the most lively child in the past become so silent, Xihe was naturally heartbroken. He had no mood to talk and stepped into the Taiyin Star.
The appearance of the moon was the same as before, it seemed to be always so bright, and there was always a sacred laurel tree standing on the horizon. Looking at such a familiar appearance, Xihe was filled with emotion. Once upon a time, she was also a free goddess, who only needed to practice all day long and did not need to worry about other things. Naturally, Wang Shu would take care of everything for her.
But since she became the Queen of Heaven, even though Di Jun took on most of the affairs, she had to assist in dealing with them a few times. The more she experienced, the more complicated her heart for Tao became. To this day, she no longer has the innocence of the past.
"You came."
Just as Xihe was sighing with emotion, he heard a cold female voice in his ears. He looked up and saw a goddess of the moon wearing a moon-white gown with a full moon behind her head. It was Wangshu.
Wangshu hadn't seen Xihe for nearly hundreds of thousands of years, but her expression showed no surprise or excitement. She was as calm as usual, as if this was just an ordinary little thing.
Xihe replied calmly, "Yes, I'm finally back. My sister is the same as before, but I have changed a lot." Then she took Lu Ya's hand and said softly, "This is your Aunt Wangshu."
Lu Ya was stunned for a moment, then he whispered: "Lu Ya greets Aunt Wangshu."
Wangshu nodded slightly and said, "Can we go to Guanghan Palace and sit there?"
Xihe shook his head and said, "Today I am going to Taisu Heaven to pay respect to Nuwa. When I passed by Taiyin Star, I felt something in my heart, so I entered the temple. Now that I have seen you, I feel relieved. I am leaving now. It is inconvenient for me to go and sit down. I hope you can forgive me."
Wangshu's expression remained unchanged. He nodded slightly and turned away.
Looking at Wangshu's departing back, Xihe felt an inexplicable emotion in her heart that wanted to burst out, but in the end, she was suppressed by the sense of responsibility of being the Queen of Heaven. She could only watch Wangshu gradually disappear. When the last bit of his clothes disappeared, she picked up Lu Ya and flew into the sky.
When they arrived outside Taisu Sky and looked at the endless clouds that appeared and disappeared, Xihe took Lu Ya to kneel down without saying a word. Although Lu Ya did not understand, he still obeyed his mother's order and knelt down obediently.
The two of them knelt for a full hundred years, and Taisu Heaven was the Taoist temple of Nuwa, where the majesty of the saints was in control. Even though Xihe's cultivation had reached the late stage of Hunyuan Golden Immortal, she felt dizzy facing the majesty of the saint with disheveled hair. An invisible pressure pressed on her heart, making her shaky.
This was not an injury, but an aura that even the Hunyuan Golden Immortal could not withstand. Needless to say, Lu Ya had already fainted on the side. If it were not for Xihe's protection, he would have been turned into ashes by the omnipresent chaotic energy.
Finally, when Xihe was about to collapse, the clouds in front of her finally began to ripple slightly. A blue phoenix bird flew out from the ripples and transformed into a woman in colorful fairy clothes in front of Xihe. This was the blue phoenix fairy who had served Nuwa the longest.
Seeing Fairy Qingluan appear, Xihe's eyes flashed with a ray of hope, but he did not stand up and prayed: "Fairy Qingluan, please understand a mother's painstaking efforts and inform Nuwa that Xihe wants to see her."
Fairy Qingluan bowed to Xihe, and then said: "Queen of Heaven, please go back to Heaven. Queen of Heaven already knows your purpose, but the ten Golden Crow princes are too presumptuous, and have caused supreme killing. Even in the previous two calamities, it is a shocking crime. If it weren't for Queen of Heaven's backing, I'm afraid other saints would have killed them long ago. And this is already the utmost of humanity. If Queen of Heaven still wants Nuwa to protect His Highness Lu Ya, please listen to this servant's advice, it is really difficult."
But Xihe ignored her status and took several steps forward on her knees, tightly grasping the corner of Fairy Qingluan's clothes, lowering her noble head and begging: "Please tell the Queen that Xihe knows and is willing to die to atone for her sins! I only ask that you accept Lu Ya, even if he can serve tea and water to the Queen, or even be a boy who makes fire beside you when the Fairy is refining the elixir, it would be a good thing!"
Seeing that this goddess who was on equal footing with Nuwa and who listened to the same teachings in Zixiao Palace could actually beg her, a maid, for her child, Qingluan Fairy couldn't help but sigh at Xihe's kindness.
Fairy Qingluan turned her head and wanted to help Xihe up, but Xihe still held on to her clothes tightly, her beautiful eyes filled with tears and full of sorrow and pleading, and even she could not bear to refuse.
Fairy Qingluan whispered, "How can I report to Goddess Nuwa if the Queen Mother of Heaven holds me like this?"
Xihe loosened the corner of his clothes only after hearing this, but still said earnestly: "Fairy, your kindness and virtue will never be forgotten by Xihe."
Fairy Qingluan sighed, then transformed into a blue phoenix and flew into Taisu Heaven, leaving behind only the figure of a kneeling grieving mother.
Fairy Qingluan flew into a huge palace surrounded by countless divine lights of creation, transformed into a human form at the door, and finally moved lightly with lotus steps to a cloud bed, bowed, and said, "Qingluan greets the queen."
Nuwa closed her eyes slightly and said, "I know why you are here. What do you think I should do?"
Fairy Qingluan lowered her head and said, "How can I dare to guess what the Queen did? But I think the Queen is really pitiful. Even the heaven and earth are moved by her kindness. I really can't bear it."
The empress opened her wonderful eyes and saw Xihe still kneeling outside Taisu Heaven. She sighed and said, "Go and invite the Queen of Heaven to come in."
Fairy Qingluan was delighted and said, "I will go right away."
Then Fairy Qingluan quickly flew out of Taisu Heaven and said to Xihe with a smile: "Quickly get up, Queen Mother of Heaven. Queen Nuwa wants to see you. Quickly bring the Tenth Prince in."
Xihe was overjoyed when she heard this. After all, Nuwa must have known the purpose of her visit. Now that she was willing to let her in, it meant that Nuwa would also accept Lu Ya.
She quickly stood up with Lu Ya, and before entering Taisu Heaven, she took out a huge pearl that looked like a bright moon, handed it to Fairy Qingluan, and said solemnly: "I will face a calamity of death in the future, and the hope of surviving it is slim. I may not be able to repay the fairy's kindness, so I will give this pearl to the fairy. I hope the fairy will not mind."
Fairy Qingluan was willing to help Xihe, not because of her status as the Queen of Heaven or the treasures on her body, but just to make her thoughts clear. So she just smiled faintly and accepted the pearl as a way to comfort Xihe.
