Zhunti and Jieyin were sent off.
Heavenly Lord of Morality, Laozi, looked at Qin Hong, who was waving his small hand at him, with disdain, his eyelids twitching uncontrollably.
"I'm leaving too."
With that, Laozi quickly formed a hand seal and set off, afraid that if he delayed, Qin Hong would get his hands on him too.
"Goodbye, Uncle. Hong'er will escort you, Uncle."
Qin Hong was exceedingly polite, making both Laozi and Nuwa wonder if the kid had a change of heart.
"Uncle, you must cultivate well and comprehend the Way of Alchemy more. Bring more for Hong'er next time, they look so delicious..."
Pfft!
Laozi spat out his drink as a direct reaction.
Laozi and Nuwa: As expected, we were overthinking it.
Laozi thought Qin Hong was considering him, but after all that talk, he was waiting for this!
"Cultivate more, refine more pills," all for you to eat?
How audacious!
Laozi said nothing, turned around, and left with a flourish. No need to see him off!
Just as Qin Hong was dealing with Laozi, Nuwa, on the other side, took light steps, intending to leave, not wanting to get involved with Qin Hong.
Who would have thought that Qin Hong had been watching her the whole time and immediately threw himself onto Nuwa's lap?
His little face was filled with sorrow, and his large eyes gazed at her affectionately, making Nuwa's heart skip a beat.
As expected, Qin Hong opened his small mouth and said solemnly:
"Aunt Nuwa, you must wait for me. When I've saved up enough betrothal gifts, I will ride a colorful auspicious cloud to marry you!"
Pfft!
Nuwa's heart trembled, and still being held by the leg by Qin Hong, she almost fell.
"Uh, Hong'er... we... we're not really suitable. How about I introduce you to some pretty fairies later, okay?"
At this moment, Nuwa had only one thought: Who am I, where am I, what am I doing, someone save me!
"No!"
Qin Hong refused decisively:
"Aunt Nuwa, you are the most beautiful fairy in all of Primordial Era, past, present, and future. No one can compare!"
"Besides Aunt Nuwa, I won't marry anyone else!"
"Uh, Hong'er, you..."
Facing Qin Hong's persistent pestering, Nuwa felt distressed, but she was still happy to be praised.
After all, telling a woman she's beautiful is never wrong!
Even though Nuwa had already attained the Dao and become a Saint.
Furthermore, who said Saints had no desires?
Didn't you see Heavenly Lord of Original Beginning, Zhunti, and Jieyin spitting blood from anger at Qin Hong? Since they could get angry, they naturally weren't lacking in other emotions.
In that sense, Nuwa had them too.
"This... um... uh, Hong'er, you're still too young. We'll talk about it later!"
"Auntie just remembered she hasn't fed the spirit beasts in the palace, so I'll be going now..."
With that, Nuwa gently pulled her leg free from Qin Hong's grasp and fled like a streak of light.
"Auntie, Hong'er is serious!"
"Auntie, tell me what you like, and our Sect of Interception has many people and resources. As long as Auntie likes it, we'll get it for you!"
"Auntie, when Hong'er proposes, should I go directly to Wa Palace or first go to Huoyun Cave to speak with my brother-in-law?"
Qin Hong's small mouth chattered loudly.
Plop!
Nuwa, who was walking on clouds, fell directly from her perch.
"This little fellow thinks of everything, even going to Huoyun Cave!" Re-establishing herself on the cloud, Nuwa tidied her skirt and hair, thinking to herself.
"Huoyun Cave, I wonder how elder brother is doing. Sigh!"
The brother-in-law Qin Hong mentioned was naturally Nuwa's elder brother, the former Demon Clan powerhouse, and now the Human Race's Heavenly Emperor, Fuxi.
After Fuxi was schemed against and perished during the Witch-Demon War, Nuwa used her Saintly means to allow him to reincarnate and cultivate anew, becoming Fuxi, the Heavenly Emperor, one of the Three Sovereigns of the Human Race.
He originally thought his elder brother had returned, but he didn't expect that the day of becoming an Emperor would also be the day of separation. Pulled by karma, Fuxi would forever guard Huoyun Cave, unable to leave unless the Primordial Era shattered. It was no different from being imprisoned.
"Elder Brother, I wonder when Wa'er will be able to rescue you!" Nuwa's beautiful eyes seemed on the verge of tears. These years, she had never stepped out of Wa Palace, nor had she spread any faith. In reality, she had been constantly searching for a way to break through Huoyun Cave.
Even though she was a Saint now and no one dared to provoke her, deep within Nuwa's memories, the tall figure who had always protected her had never faded; it had only become more glorious.
Tongtian watched the solemn expression on his son's face and couldn't help but turn his gaze towards where Nuwa had vanished. He muttered to himself:
"Hmm, my son likes her. If she doesn't agree..."
"With the Qingping Sword and the Immortal Slaying Sword Formation, abducting her to Biyou Palace wouldn't be a problem!"
"Hmm, Fuxi is trapped in Huoyun Cave. Even if he knew, there's nothing he could do."
"It's just Master and the other Saints. This matter is a bit tricky. A Saint has inexplicably disappeared from the Primordial Era, and it's Nuwa. Hmm, I need to think carefully and plan this out properly!"
If Qin Hong knew what Tongtian was thinking at this moment, he would definitely exclaim, "My dad is awesome!"
Abducting a Saint? He could even come up with such an idea?
Amazing!
Seeing Qin Hong withdraw his gaze, Sect Master Tongtian also stopped his thoughts. He patted Qin Hong's little head with his large hand and said gently:
"Hong'er, let's go back too!"
"Since you like Nuwa, Dad will prepare the betrothal gifts for you now. One set for Wa Palace, and one set for Huoyun Cave. When I have time, Dad will go propose to her for you. My son Tongtian has grown up!"
Standing on the clouds, holding his beloved son's hand, Sect Master Tongtian was beaming with pride and in a great mood!
Recalling everything that had happened today, he couldn't help but pick up Qin Hong and give him another big, wet kiss.
That Yuanshi, relying on being the second eldest, always flaunted his seniority as an elder brother and bullied him.
And those two annoying brats from the West, they loved to butt in, fanning the flames and instigating Yuanshi, often stirring up trouble for him.
Usually, he could only suffer in silence, swallowing his bitterness.
Now, it was great. His son had avenged him!
It felt so damn satisfying!
Not to mention that, with his son's intelligence and wit, if you scolded him, he would obediently hand over treasures, and you couldn't refuse.
Heh, truly satisfying!
Most importantly, the Twelve-grade Black Lotus of Destruction given by his Master! This was a Supreme Grade Innate Spiritual Treasure!
There were only a few Supreme Grade Innate Spiritual Treasures in the entire Primordial Era, let alone the fact that this Black Lotus of Destruction was once used by Demon Ancestor Luohu.
Its power and preciousness were self-evident.
He had originally planned to get some treasures for Hong'er, but now, Hong'er's treasures made him envious.
Hahaha!
As for the Investiture of the Gods Scroll, it was destroyed, and it was destroyed. Master said he didn't blame Hong'er.
Besides, it could still be repaired, so what was there to fear!
"Hmm? Pfft!"
Hearing Tongtian's words, Qin Hong couldn't help but spit out his drink. He looked up at his proud and elated father.
Dad, you're truly amazing!
He's actually going to propose!
That's a Saint!
And the age difference is so vast!
No, age doesn't seem to be a problem!
No matter when, older man, younger woman, or older woman, younger man are all trends! After all, it means less struggle for many years!
Hmm, Aunt Nuwa is a Saint. If I were to marry her...
Wouldn't I at least save hundreds of thousands of lifetimes of struggle?
Sweet, so sweet, incredibly sweet!!!
