Cihang and his companion did not rush into Chaoge, but stayed outside the city to watch the reconstruction of the Nuwa Palace.

These humans did not come under King Zhou's orders; they all came out of genuine sincerity.

Yet, people from all over continued to come to pay homage and join the effort to rebuild Nuwa Palace.

In Cihang's view, unless Nuwa loses her mind, she will not abandon the Yin Shang as originally planned.

"Indeed, as you say, this human race is truly extraordinary!"

Looking at the Nuwa Palace being rebuilt little by little, Luohu also agreed with Cihang's opinion.

When Nuwa was angry, she destroyed not only the buildings of the Nuwa Palace, but also the spiritual veins of this sacred mountain.

This also led to the complete transformation of what was originally a spiritually rich mountain into a barren wasteland.

But with the gathering of these humans, boundless faith and unwavering conviction converged here.

As the Nuwa Palace was being rebuilt, spiritual energy began to converge upon it.

The depleted spiritual veins are showing signs of regeneration.

Those mortals do not possess magical powers, so the palaces they build are naturally incomparable to those of cultivators; in fact, they can be described as quite rudimentary.

But what Luohu and the other two saw was not these things, but the will and faith that these humans had gathered together.

With the blessing of these wills and beliefs, the palace that broke through became no longer ordinary.

Moreover, the two of them sensed that an supreme will was constantly watching over them.

As Cihang had predicted, Nuwa had no intention of abandoning the Yin Shang.

This reconstruction of the Nuwa Palace was her punishment and test for the Yin Shang dynasty.

The day the palace is successfully rebuilt will be the day Nuwa's will descend once more.

Time flies, and thanks to the efforts of the human race, the once barren mountain has undergone a dramatic transformation.

Palaces were rebuilt, and King Zhou collected numerous rare treasures to adorn them.

Those cultivators also transplanted countless spiritual roots and immortal herbs from the outside world, allowing this barren mountain to regain its vitality.

Although the Nuwa Palace was somewhat simple at this moment, it did not diminish its majesty, and an invisible force was gathering once again.

On the day the Nuwa Palace was rebuilt, King Zhou led his ministers, starting from the foot of the mountain, and kowtowed every three steps.

With a heart full of deep remorse.

Seeing King Zhou's attitude, the crowd, who had previously harbored resentment, gradually relented and joined in bowing before the Nuwa Palace.

King Zhou knelt and bowed all the way into the Nuwa Palace.

"Holy Mother, only the Prince of Humanity is entitled to kowtow to you."

All the offensive words I spoke earlier were made Zi Shou Zishou alone. I hope that the Holy Mother can forgive the subjects of my Great Shang Dynasty.

The Zi Shou willing to bear all the blame alone.

No matter what the Your Ladyship did, Zi Shou never complained.

We only pray that Your Ladyship will continue to protect the people of the Great Shang!

King Zhou kowtowed again, admitting his mistake.

Even if he was misled, he was powerless to refute or defend himself since the offensive words came from him.

He was willing to accept any punishment, only hoping that Nuwa would spare the Great Shang.

The foundation of the Great Shang must not be destroyed by him, and the human race must not suffer war again because of him.

"We humbly beseech Your Holy Mother to grant us your grace!"

Outside the main hall, millions of people knelt and begged.

"This King Zhou was quite something, it's just a pity!"

Outside the Nuwa Palace, Luohu looked at King Zhou in the main hall and sighed.

If not for a major catastrophe, King Zhou would definitely have been a qualified Human Emperor.

Unfortunately, once caught up in the conflict between immortals and gods, he ultimately couldn't control his own destiny.

"That's really good, I hope he can have a good result!"

In the original course of events, King Zhou was completely bewitched, becoming not only a ruler who lost his kingdom, but also the last Human Emperor.

After that, there was no longer Human Emperor, only a Son of Heaven.

He also became a sinner against the entire human race.

However, this time, there will be a different ending.

The sounds of kowtows and prayers echoed continuously in the Nuwa Palace.

"Holy Mother, I, your Zi Shou to commit suicide here to atone for my sins."

I only beg Your Ladyship to forgive the Great Shang!

A resolute look flashed in King Zhou's eyes, and he immediately drew his sword and committed suicide.

"Bump!"

Just as King Zhou was about to be beheaded, the ordinary statue at the head of the statue suddenly emitted a divine light, which also knocked the long sword out of King Zhou's hand.

"Zi Shou respects to the Holy Mother!"

King Zhou knelt down in excitement, and he finally moved Nuwa.

"Greetings, Holy Mother!"

All the humans wept with joy.

"What happened before was indeed your fault."

However, you were also misled, so you can't be entirely blamed.

Because of your sincere desire to return, I will give you a chance.

"I hope that you, despite your guilt, can lead the human race well."

Nuwa waved her hand to help everyone up, and holy light enveloped Nuwa Palace at the same time.

In an instant, the entire Nuwa Palace became even more magnificent and majestic.

Countless spiritual energies converge here.

"Thank you, Holy Mother."

Zi Shou hereby swears that he will dedicate himself wholeheartedly to the development of the human race and will never disappoint the Holy Mother!

King Zhou thanked him with delight.

He was prepared to atone with his death, but the surprise came so suddenly.

"I have remembered your vow!"

The holy light in the Nuwa Palace slowly dissipated, and no more strange phenomena appeared.

But everyone knows that the former Nuwa Palace has returned.

They no longer need to worry about losing Nuwa's protection.

King Zhou was filled with motivation at this moment, determined to dedicate his limited life to the cause of humanity.

"Nuwa greets you two fellow Daoists and invites you to the Nuwa Palace for a chat!"

Nuwa suddenly appeared before Cihang and Cihang, extending an invitation to them.

With a wave of her hand, Nuwa conjured up an alternate dimension in front of the three.

The scenery there is exactly the same as that of the Nuwa Palace, but the spiritual energy there is hundreds or thousands of times greater than that of the outside world.

"Greetings, Fellow Daoist Nuwa."

We're sorry to bother you today!

Cihang and Luohu exchanged greetings and then entered Nuwa Palace together.

"This place is simple, with only some ordinary spiritual fruits and immortal tea. Please forgive any shortcomings!"

Nuwa spoke apologetically to the two of them.

This is ultimately just a temporary palace, not the real Empress Wa's Palace, and cannot be compared to it.

"You're too kind, fellow Daoist!"

Cihang and Luohu wouldn't care about this matter.

"Why have you two fellow Daoists come to this mortal realm together? Are you also plotting something regarding the fate of the Yin Shang dynasty?"

After exchanging pleasantries, Nuwa finally voiced her doubts.

Whether it's Cihang or Luohu, they are both enough for her to deal with carefully.

If they have ulterior motives, it will also have a significant impact on her.

"Fellow Daoist, there's no need to be nervous. I'm merely feeling restless and want to travel around the human race. I have no other plans!"

Cihang explained with a smile.

"I haven't had a proper look at the development of the Primordial World for a long time, so I'm traveling with Fellow Daoist Cihang to see the protagonists of the world today."

It must be said, the human race is indeed extraordinary.

Luohu immediately echoed this sentiment.

"I see. It's a rare opportunity to meet you Human Dao here. How about we have a discussion about the Dao?"

Nuwa did not fully trust the two of them. With their level of cultivation and strength, every move they made would have a significant impact on and change the world.

To prevent the two from ruining her plans, she wanted to keep them temporarily in the Nuwa Palace under the guise of discussing Tao.

Cihang and Luohu naturally saw through Nuwa's intentions.

However, they did not intend to take action for the time being, and therefore did not refuse Nuwa.
