My Family, Who Understands This! The Primordial Wilderness's Top Girl Group Are My Henchwomen!
The vast and boundless Primordial World stretched out before them.
Niu Ben revealed his true form as the Azure Ox, his four hooves treading on empty air as auspicious clouds formed beneath them. He moved at great speed, yet without the slightest jolt, steadily carrying Taishang Daoist eastward.
The sea of clouds ahead suddenly surged, then rippled apart like water.
The space before them was gently torn open by an invisible hand, and three graceful figures stepped out from the void in unison.
They drew near from afar and stopped in front of them.
The void instantly calmed, revealing the forms of three female immortals.
In that moment, the surrounding cloud energy was dyed in brilliant colors by their radiance.
One wore a pale blue cloud-patterned long dress, her demeanor as still and deep as an abyss, making it hard to harbor any irreverent thoughts.
Another was clad in a goose-yellow palace gown, her brows and eyes curved with a natural liveliness and charm.
The last was dressed in a sharp green outfit, her posture straight and tall, a blend of heroic spirit and allure that gave her a unique presence.
Niu Ben was stunned on the spot.
Damn, this is what real fairies descending to the mortal world look like.
Compared to the beauties of later ages with all their layers of filters, these three before him were each naturally perfect, exuding an innate immortal charm.
Just as Niu Ben was grumbling to himself, the three immortals had already approached.
Their gazes swept past Niu Ben, and upon seeing Taishang Daoist on the Azure Ox's back, they quickly restrained their auras, stepped forward briskly, and bowed in unison with movements so elegant and flawless they were beyond reproach.
The woman in blue at the lead spoke first, her voice clear and cold, pleasing to the ear.
"Martial Nephew Yunxiao pays respects to Great Martial Uncle."
"Martial Nephew Qiongxiao pays respects to Great Martial Uncle." The woman in the goose-yellow palace gown spoke with a much livelier tone.
"Martial Nephew Bixiao pays respects to Great Martial Uncle!" The last woman in green had a crisp voice, carrying a hint of straightforwardness.
Their words fell into Niu Ben's ears, but they struck him like three thunderbolts exploding in his mind.
Yunxiao?
Qiongxiao?
Bixiao?
The Three Xiaos!
Niu Ben's ox heart leaped violently, and his whole body went numb.
These three were names that thundered through the later Great Tribulation of Investiture of the Gods!
They were no ordinary female immortals.
In the future Great Tribulation of Investiture of the Gods, it was they who set up the infamous Nine-Bend Yellow River Formation.
With the Primordial Golden Cauldron in hand, they laid out the Nine-Bend Yellow River Formation, stripping the top three lotuses from the Chan Teachings' great immortals and wasting the five energies in their chests, nearly wiping out the Twelve Golden Immortals of the Chan Teachings in one fell swoop. Ruthless characters, indeed.
They made the Chan Teachings lose all face, ultimately forcing Primordial Heavenly Lord to personally step in and bully the smaller.
These three graceful, ethereal beauties before him were the same ones who would later be drenched in Sha Qi, willing to risk everything to avenge their brother?
The stark contrast made Niu Ben's heart thump uncontrollably a few more times.
He hadn't expected to meet them here so soon.
Taishang Daoist slowly opened his eyes, his gaze calmly sweeping over the three, and gave a slight nod.
"So it's a few martial nieces."
Yunxiao, at the lead, finished her greeting and asked softly, "Great Martial Uncle, have you also sensed Master's summons and returned for the discourse?"
Taishang Daoist's expression remained unchanged. "No. Why do you ask?"
Yunxiao explained respectfully, "To answer Great Martial Uncle, Second Martial Uncle and my master are preparing to give a grand lecture on Kunlun Mountain. My sisters and I were ordered by our master to rush back from the East Sea."
So Primordial Heavenly Lord and Tongtian are going to lecture too.
"Let's go. Go see your masters and the others." Taishang Daoist's tone was flat, but carried an unyielding authority.
"Yes, Great Martial Uncle."
The Three Xiaos Immortals answered respectfully and obediently fell in behind the Azure Ox.
Niu Ben continued to gallop forward, but his heart was floating a little.
These are the Three Xiaos Ladies! Future Quasi-Saint-level Great Experts, and now they're meekly following behind me—this wave of prestige is maxed out!
(Inner thoughts racing like a barrage: Who gets it, folks! The top-tier female group of the Primordial World is my entourage!)
But Niu Ben quickly sobered up: The prestige belongs to Master. I'm just an accessory.
The group pierced through clouds and mist, and the towering Kunlun Immortal Mountain came into view.
The oppressive presence of the Ancestor of Ten Thousand Mountains hit them head-on. The Dao Field of Jade Void Palace was packed with heads—immortal-boned big shots, snarling ferocious beasts, all the top figures of the Primordial World gathered here like a collection!
On the central platform of the Dao Field, two figures dominated the scene.
The one on the left wore an Apricot-Yellow Daoist Robe, law chains coiled around him, his face screaming "Don't bother me." This was Yuqing Primordial Lord.
The one in the green robe on the right was even more extreme—Sword Qi surged so fiercely it sent the Milky Way plummeting three thousand feet, forcing Niu Ben to duck his head at light speed.
That was naturally Tongtian, the future master of the Jie Teachings.
"Big Brother has returned." The moment Yuanshi spoke, a green light on the horizon came straight at them, riding the output.
Taishang rode his Azure Ox through the clouds, with the Three Xiaos Immortals trailing behind, their presence maxed out.
Hum—
An intangible Dao resonance swept across the scene, instantly purifying the onlookers, who all bowed ninety degrees in unison:
"Greetings, Great Martial Uncle!"
(Niu Ben secretly gloated: This wave, oh this wave is called "About Me Being a Mount but Enjoying Sect Leader Treatment.")
Tongtian's eyes flashed with sword light: "Big Brother has broken through?"
Taishang drifted down to the ground: "Mm."
Yuanshi's gaze pierced the void: "Big Brother has new insights into the Saint Path?"
"No."
Suddenly, Tongtian locked his gaze on Niu Ben: "Big Brother, this mount..."
Taishang didn't even lift an eyelid: "Ox, greet your uncles."
Immortal light exploded!
Niu Ben instantly transformed into a handsome young man, his heart in a frantic mess:
"Niu Ben greets Second Martial Uncle and Third Martial Uncle."
Yuanshi and Tongtian, figures of their caliber, saw through Niu Ben's origins at a glance.
An Innate Divine Being's foundation, Golden Immortal cultivation.
"Your foundation is indeed extraordinary, even carrying a trace of Chaos." Yuanshi nodded slightly, his tone flat.
Tongtian laughed heartily: "Haha, quite an interesting ox. Big Brother has good taste."
They both saw that Niu Ben's Origin held immense potential, far beyond ordinary Innate Beings.
Yuanshi looked at Taishang and proposed solemnly: "Big Brother has returned from afar. The three of us brothers haven't discussed the Dao in a long time. Why not take this chance to jointly explore the Great Dao? What say you?"
Taishang looked at his two brothers and slowly uttered a single word.
"Good."
With that "good," the Three Pure Ones all sat cross-legged on the high platform.
The sermon officially began.
The first to speak was Taishang. He produced no earth-shattering phenomena; his voice was calm, expounding on Purity and Non-Action, that Dao Follows Nature.
The ancient Dao characters flowing from his mouth seemed to transform into the most fundamental rules of heaven and earth, silently seeping into the hearts of every living being.
Then Yuanshi spoke, his voice solemn and majestic, elaborating on Following Heaven and Responding to People, the Heavenly Dao Order that divides all into ranks.
As he spoke, heavenly flowers rained down, golden lotuses sprang from the earth, and boundless Xuanhuang Merit gathered above the Dao Field.
Finally, Tongtian let out a bold laugh, his voice unrestrained and free, telling the ultimate truth of Seizing a Thread of Life, Teaching Without Discrimination, that all things could seek the Great Dao.
