Big Brother, you've truly worked hard.
After he finished speaking, the entire Pangu Hall fell silent.
The Twelve Ancestral Witches were all petrified on the spot, their eyes wide and mouths agape, as if they were seeing their eldest brother for the first time.
Looking at Zhou Ming's righteous and selfless demeanor, they felt their brains were a bit overwhelmed.
After a long while, gasps of astonishment finally rose and fell.
Is this another way of explaining it?
This guy is really... he got the benefit and then acted innocent, he's taken shamelessness to the extreme!
They clearly wanted to steal the treasure, but they claimed it was to help others and prevent them from making mistakes.
He was clearly using Nuwa as a pawn, but he claimed it was to protect Nuwa and that he was willing to bear everything.
After saying this, he not only became the biggest beneficiary.
And she became the one with the highest moral character, the most consideration for the overall situation, and the most wronged!
My brother's thick skin is probably comparable to Buzhou Mountain.
My older brother is getting worse and worse.
but...
They like it!
"Big brother is right!"
Di Jiang was the first to react, and echoed him with a serious expression.
"We're preventing Taiqing from making mistakes! We're helping him get back on the right path!"
"Our Father God will surely praise us when He finds out!"
"That's right, that's right!"
"Taiqing will definitely thank you, elder brother!"
The other Ancestral Wu nodded in agreement, their expressions increasingly sincere.
"Yes, I'm glad you understand my good intentions."
Zhou Ming nodded with relief, then let out a long sigh, his face etched with the marks of time.
"Sigh, I'm really worried sick about us Pangu Descendants."
Upon hearing this, all the Ancestral Wu twitched at the corners of their mouths, and then spoke in unison.
"Yes, yes, thank you so much, brother!"
Heavenly Court.
A streak of light rushed from the direction of Buzhou Mountain and finally landed in front of the Lingxiao Treasure Hall; it was Nuwa.
Di Jun, Taiyi, and Fuxi had been waiting for a long time.
Upon seeing Nuwa, they immediately went to greet her.
"Little sister, you're back."
Fuxi spoke first, his tone filled with concern.
Di Jun and Taiyi followed closely behind, bowing respectfully. "Welcome back Empress Wa."
Nuwa nodded in response.
After exchanging pleasantries, Di Jun asked.
"I wonder if Empress Wa's journey was successful? Did she manage to borrow the Innate Red Embroidered Ball?"
He looked at Nuwa, his eyes filled with anticipation.
Nuwa said nothing, but simply raised her hand, and the Innate Red Embroidered Ball appeared out of thin air in her palm.
"Borrowed." Nuwa's cold voice rang out, revealing no emotion whatsoever.
Upon seeing the Innate Red Embroidered Ball, Di Jun's eyes lit up, and a great weight was lifted from his heart.
Di Jun's face lit up with joy, and he quickly thanked her, "Thank you, Empress Wa."
"I wonder what request Sage Zhou Ming made?"
"Our Demon Clan will do everything in our power to satisfy you and will never make things difficult for Empress Wa!"
Nuwa looked at the three of them and slowly said, "This time, Zhou Ming has put forward two conditions."
Upon hearing this, Di Jun, Taiyi, Fuxi immediately held their breath and listened intently.
They knew that was the key.
She paused slightly, glanced at Di Jun, and then stated her first condition.
"Firstly, for this Heavenly Marriage, he wants to join in the fun and officiate the Heavenly Marriage with me."
Upon hearing this, Di Jun, Taiyi, Fuxi were all shocked, their faces filled with disbelief.
Di Jun's smile froze on his face; he had almost blurted it out.
"What? He... he wants to officiate my Heavenly Marriage?"
He frowned, completely baffled.
Why is that? What is his purpose?
"How could a Primordial Chaos Sage him be reduced to this?"
Di Jun was puzzled. Given the relationship between the Wu Clan and the Demon Clan, Zhou Ming's proposal made him wary.
Taiyi's face darkened, his tone filled with distrust.
"Is he trying to cause trouble?"
Fuxi frowned, pondered for a moment, and then slowly shook his head.
"Impossible. If he really wanted to cause trouble, why would he lend us the Innate Red Embroidered Ball?"
"If he truly harbored ill intentions, he would have simply refused; there was no need for this unnecessary trouble."
"His act of lending out the Innate Red Embroidered Ball is already a great act of kindness."
"If we were to cause further trouble, wouldn't we be disgracing the Saint for no reason?"
Di Jun also came to his senses, pondered for a moment, and nodded.
"Emperor Xi is right. He couldn't possibly be causing trouble."
"After all, he is Primordial Chaos Sage. If he really wanted to cause trouble, there would be no need to use such methods."
"Doing so would only make the Saint lose face for no reason."
Although Di Jun was surprised and doubtful, it was an immense honor for the Saint to personally preside over the Heavenly Marriage.
Moreover, he had no choice but to refuse.
"He won't cause trouble," Nuwa said calmly.
"I just don't know why he would arrange your Heavenly Marriage."
Zhou Ming's actions are always unpredictable and unfathomable.
She paused, her tone tinged with complexity.
"However, this isn't necessarily a bad thing."
"Two Saint will jointly preside over your Heavenly Marriage. This is the first time since the Heaven-Cleaving Earth-Splitting, and it will probably be the last."
"For the Demon Clan race, this is also an unparalleled honor."
Upon hearing this, Di Jun nodded repeatedly.
"Empress Wa said is true. It is my honor, and the fortune of the Demon Clan, to have two Saint preside over my Heavenly Marriage!"
He secretly pondered, even if Zhou Ming had ulterior motives.
As long as it doesn't affect the Heavenly Marriage, this glory is enough to make up for everything.
"Then what is the second condition?" Di Jun asked again.
This is what he truly cares about; although the first condition was unexpected, it was ultimately a good thing.
Fuxi and Taiyi both looked at Nuwa, and they both knew what was going on.
Someone like Zhou Ming would never offer just a simple condition like "joining in the fun."
This second condition is the real key point.
Nuwa did not answer directly, but instead avoided the main point.
"This second condition concerns Saint, and you cannot help with it."
She abruptly changed the subject, not giving the three of them a chance to ask further questions.
"You don't need to worry about this; I'll handle it."
Di Jun and Taiyi exchanged glances, though they were curious.
But since Nuwa had said so, they dared not ask any further questions.
They really have no say in matters concerning Saint.
Fuxi seemed to be deep in thought and remained silent.
Nuwa continued, "Now that the Innate Red Embroidered Ball has been borrowed, you can begin preparing for your Heavenly Marriage."
"Once the auspicious time is confirmed, just notify Zhou Ming."
Di Jun respectfully replied, "Yes! Thank you Empress Wa!"
"If there's anything I can do to help, please don't hesitate to ask, Empress Wa."
"Our entire Demon Clan will certainly go all out."
Nuwa nodded slightly. "Okay, I understand."
Di Jun's heart stirred, and he spoke again.
"Preparations for the Heavenly Marriage will take some time. Why doesn't Empress Wa stay in the Heavenly Court temporarily?"
Nuwa pondered for a moment. Staying temporarily in the Heavenly Court would make it easier for her to keep an eye on the progress of the Heavenly Marriage and would also save her from traveling back and forth.
Nuwa nodded in agreement. "Alright, I'll stay in Heavenly Court for a while."
Di Jun was overjoyed to receive Nuwa's approval.
Nuwa settled in the Heavenly Court, Di Jun, Taiyi, and Fuxi immediately began preparations for the Heavenly Marriage Ceremony.
The entire Heavenly Court was immersed in a joyous and busy atmosphere.
Countless Demon Soldier Demon General moved about, decorating with lanterns and colorful streamers, setting up a banquet.
They are busy preparing for the first marriage in Primordial Wilderness.
