With Nuwa's approval, Xi He faced no further obstacles in rebuilding the demon race.

"We pay our respects to the Demon Emperor!"

Kunpeng and Bai Ze led a group of demons in bowing Xi He.

Demon Empress acquiring the Monster Summoning Banner, Xi He no longer cared about the Demon Queen, but rather the true Demon Emperor.

Seeing this, Nuwa sighed inwardly.

She did act impulsively before.

She shouldn't have questioned Cihang like that.

What she always wanted was the fortune and faith of the demon race.

The true power of authority was not so important to her.

She also didn't have the energy to control the demon race.

With Xi He stepping in to reorganize the demon race, it would be beneficial and harmless for her.

The stronger the demon race is, the stronger her luck will be.

But by then, even if she regretted it, it was too late.

Moreover, Cihang's previous attitude still greatly displeased her.

After seeing off Nuwa and the group of demon gods, Xi He also showed a rare sign of fatigue.

Although she once shared control of the demon race with Di Jun ultimately took the lead.

Moreover, given the current situation of the demon race, she needs to expend even more mental energy.

"Mother Goddess..."

Lu Ya looked at Xi He with some worry. Xi He's decision to regain control of the demon race was all because of him.

He knew Xi He's hardships and hated his own powerlessness, unable to share Xi He's burdens.

"Don't worry, I'm still able to protect you until you grow up."

Your main goal now is to cultivate diligently. Once you break through to the Quasi-Saint level, the demon race will ultimately be in your hands!

After experiencing so much, Xi He no longer had such great ambitions; she only wanted to do everything in her power to protect the Ten Golden Crows.

"Rest assured, Mother Goddess, Lu Ya will cultivate diligently and will never disappoint Mother Goddess!"

After bidding farewell to Xi He, he went straight to the Fusang Tree, where he transformed into his true form and began his cultivation.

Lu Ya knew he couldn't be of much help, so instead of worrying here, the most important thing was to cultivate as soon as possible.

The Innate Fusang is the most suitable place for Lu Ya to cultivate.

Moreover, by cultivating here, he can connect with the auras of the other Nine Golden Crows.

It can not only make cultivation twice as effective, but also accelerate the recovery of the other Nine Golden Crows.

Seeing this, Xi He's eyes showed a look of satisfaction.

However, she then began to busy herself with the affairs of the demon race.

Previously, the demon race was like a scattered pile of sand, and it would take countless efforts to reunite them.

Fortunately, with the help of a group of powerful demons, Xi He only needed to oversee the overall situation.

She did not abandon Nuwa's arrangements. In her view, although it would not be easy to resolve the grievances between the human and demon races, this great calamity was indeed a rare opportunity.

She doesn't seek to restore the glory of the demon race's peak, but she can't escape from her grasp.

While Xi He was busy, Wang Shu stepped alone into the Solar Star.

"Now that you've returned, why don't you go back to Taiyin Star? Are you still Wang Shu?"

Looking at Xi He, Wang Shu's eyes flashed with worry and heartache.

"How could I? How could I blame you?"

If anyone should be complaining, it should be you who complains about me!

Xi He warmly invited Wang Shu into the main hall.

Xi He felt guilty towards her younger sister, Wang Shu.

It wasn't that she wasn't worried about Wang Shu, but she didn't know how to face her, which was why she hadn't returned to Taiyin Star.

Wang Shu knew that all of her sister's previous actions stemmed from a deep-seated resentment.

Right or wrong, everything has been accepted, so let it go!

Wang Shu clearly didn't want to dwell on the rights and wrongs anymore.

"Yes, it's time to let it go."

I apologized to my sister before, but I have truly let go of that now.

If you still care about Hou Yi, you can become his partner. I no longer hate him!

There's no point in dwelling on the rights and wrongs of the past.

Instead of making things difficult for yourself, it's better to let go of all this.

Congratulations on finally letting go of your worries!

Wang Shu congratulated Xi He.

She wasn't sure if she would end up with Hou Yi, but whatever the future held, she had no other burdens.

After having a complete talk, the two let go of all their grudges and returned to their former close relationship.

Although Wang Shu was unwilling for Xi He to continue to be entangled in the Karma of the demon race, she knew that everything Xi He did was for the sake of the Ten Golden Crows, so she did not stop her.

Now, the Ten Golden Crows are Xi He's only Achilles' heel.

Upon discovering the shift in the power and destiny of the demon race within Mount Luojia, Cihang let out a cold laugh.

Cihang originally had some admiration for Nuwa.

To stand out among millions of cultivators, besides innate talent, one's own wisdom and hard work are indispensable.

There are very few cultivators in the entire Primordial World who can reach the level of Nuwa.

This is why Cihang initially chose to ally with Nuwa, leveraging Nuwa's power.

But the more he interacted with Nuwa, the more disappointed he became with her.

What was once admiration has now turned into a degree of disdain.

Nuwa's background may not be as prestigious as that of the Sanqing, but she possessed advantages that the Sanqing Ones lacked.

Despite having such advantages, Nuwa never managed to take that step.

She focused too much on immediate gains, neglecting the bigger picture.

For example, Xi He's return this time will indeed cause a change in the power dynamics of the demon race.

But for Nuwa, there wasn't actually much of an obstacle.

Even if Xi He became the ruler of the demon race, Nuwa still maintained her absolute advantage among them.

For example, during the reign of Di Jun, Nuwa's fortune among the demon race never ceased.

What truly hindered her was not the demon race, but the Sanqing and other Heavenly Dao Sage.

Although the Sanqing are not the rulers of the human race, they have been spreading the Dao among humans, thereby transmitting the Heavenly Dao to them.

It is precisely this obstacle of will that prevents Human Dao from recovering for so long.

If Nuwa wanted to awaken Human Dao, she had to start with the Three Teachings).

For example, they could use the Lingzhu Zi to infiltrate the Chan Sect, or they could gather the demon forces of the Interception Sect.

However, in Cihang's view, although Nuwa had made some preparations, she was clearly overemphasizing them.

As a result, Lingzhu Zi's heart turned to the Chan Sect, and the demon race of the Interception Sect did not respond at all.

Cihang had intended to remind Nuwa, but Nuwa's attitude made him give up.

Now, he no longer needs Nuwa's protection.

As for whether Nuwa would be dissatisfied with this, Cihang didn't care that much.

Cihang knew that his actions had aroused the fear of the saints, who were waiting for an opportunity to suppress him.

But he did not become more restrained as a result.

He originally intended to use the fortune brought by this great calamity to attempt a breakthrough.

However, his mind has now changed.

Ultimately, all of this is controlled by the sages, and there is still a considerable gap between it and a true eon.

Even if he goes all out, the opportunities and luck he gains may not be enough for him to truly break through.

Following the established path of cultivation is ultimately too slow; perhaps a breakthrough is needed.

He is no longer the same person he used to be; ordinary schemes can no longer harm him.

"Don't let me down!"

Cihang wasn't worried much; on the contrary, her heart was filled with anticipation.
