Humanity Revives, Nuwa Gets Promoted! (Continued)
Bai Chen urged, "As long as Nuwa establishes the human race as the protagonist of heaven and earth, the time until the Dao is restored will soon come, Nuwa, Human Dao Spokesperson, will return to her position."
"I'll stand?"
Nuwa was stunned. Although they had agreed that the human race would be the protagonist of heaven and earth, they hadn't discussed who should be chosen as the protagonist!
"That's right. According to the Great Dao's Destiny, you are the Human Mother Goddess. No one is more suitable than you to establish the Human Race as the protagonist of heaven and earth!"
Bai Chen explained to Nuwa that, in fact, there was another very important reason for establishing the human race as the protagonist of heaven and earth, besides Nuwa being the Human Mother Goddess.
That is, Nuwa is the Human Dao Spokesperson under the Great Dao's Destiny. Only Nuwa is qualified to establish the human race as the protagonist of heaven and earth, and only then can humanity be revived.
"That seems to be true!"
Nuwa thought Bai Chen's words made a lot of sense!
"Oh my god!"
Just as Nuwa was about to pray, Bai Chen interrupted her, reminding her as soon as she uttered the first word:
"Nuwa, pray to the Great Dao, and remember, do not use your identity as Heavenly Dao Saint!"
Bai Chen felt that Nuwa was the future Human Dao Spokesperson, and that it was not appropriate to pray to the Heavenly Dao in this situation.
Moreover, even if Nuwa prayed to the Heavenly Dao, it would be useless. The human race is the protagonist of heaven and earth, and the Heavenly Dao cannot make decisions simply by praying.
"By the Great Dao above, I, Nuwa, the Human Mother Goddess, hereby establish the Human Race as the protagonist of the Primordial World world!"
In response to Nuwa's prayer, the Great Dao descended upon the Primordial World and granted a reply:
"Allow!"
As the Great Dao allows humanity to become the protagonist of heaven and earth, the human race's fortune soars. At the same time, a will similar to the Heavenly Dao and the Earthly Dao is about to awaken from its slumber.
"Human Dao Spokesperson!"
Suddenly, Nuwa received a message from Him in her mind: He was about to be resurrected and He needed Nuwa's help.
Nuwa began to try to communicate with Him, and Houtu also sensed something was wrong and began to deduce.
Seeing that Nuwa and Houtu were busy with calculations, Bai Chen tiptoed away.
If we don't run away now, we'll definitely get a beating when Nuwa goes berserk.
After a long time, Nuwa finally learned of the situation through communication with Him, and prayed to the Great Dao once again:
"By the Great Dao above, I, Nuwa, in accordance with the Great Dao's Destiny, have revived humanity today. From this day forward, I am no longer Heavenly Dao Saint, but Human Dao Saint, the Human Dao Spokesperson!"
"Allow!"
As the Great Way once again granted its request, chanting filled the air, praising the revival of humanity.
Nuwa retrieved the Primordial Spirit True Spirit that she had entrusted to the Heavenly Dao through the Hongmeng Purple Qi.
At this moment, Nuwa is no longer Heavenly Dao Saint, but Human Dao Saint, and the Human Dao Spokesperson.
After Nuwa was promoted to the Human Dao Spokesperson, the Heavenly Dao Spokesperson Dao Ancestor Hongjun, appeared and offered his congratulations:
"Congratulations on your Fellow Daoist Nuwa. From this day forward, our master-disciple relationship has ended; we are no longer master and disciple."
Dao Ancestor Hongjun had long ago foreseen that he was the Human Dao Spokesperson, and now that the other party has returned to his position, severing the master-disciple bond is appropriate.
"Excellent!"
Nuwa expressed her support for what Dao Ancestor Hongjun said, and now she has become the Human Dao Spokesperson, on the same level as Dao Ancestor Hongjun.
It would be best if the other party took the initiative to sever the connection; otherwise, because of her past experience of listening to the teachings, she would find it difficult to openly sever the master-disciple relationship.
"Nuwa, I never imagined you would be the Human Dao Spokesperson!"
Houtu was somewhat surprised, and more than that, uncomfortable, about Nuwa becoming the Human Dao Spokesperson.
It's important to understand that Nuwa was previously only a Heavenly Saint, while the Earthly Representative was one level higher than Nuwa.
Now that Nuwa has suddenly been promoted to the same rank as Houtu, it's no wonder Houtu is unhappy.
Houtu, the Earthly Dao Spokesperson!
Hehe!
Who isn't a spokesperson these days?
I, Nuwa, am now the Human Dao Spokesperson! I've finally turned the tables and can sing my praises.
Nuwa was just feeling happy when she suddenly realized a very serious problem: she was the Human Dao Spokesperson!
I had agreed to Bai Chen releasing Yuanfeng, but now things are really messed up!
Nuwa turned her gaze to Houtu and quickly questioned her:
"Houtu, you didn't agree to let the Bad Cat release Yuanfeng, did you?"
Nuwa remembered that Dao Ancestor Hongjun agreed to release Yuanfeng, and she herself was forced to agree as well. Two of the three representatives of Heaven, Earth, and Man had already agreed, and the only hope now was Houtu, the Earthly Dao Spokesperson.
Nuwa hoped that Houtu would not agree to release Yuanfeng, otherwise a major disaster would occur.
"Back then, Little White used the lives of my elder brother Gonggong and Zhurong as leverage, and I had no choice but to agree to release Yuanfeng."
When asked by Nuwa, Houtu replied that she and Nuwa shared the same thought: they were both hoping that the other would not agree to release Yuanfeng.
Nuwa trembled upon hearing this. According to Houtu's explanation, Houtu, as the Earthly Dao Spokesperson, was the first to agree to release Yuanfeng, while she, as the Human Dao Spokesperson, was the last to agree.
Nuwa was furious at the thought that Yuanfeng would regain his freedom and descend upon the Primordial World, and she angrily rebuked Houtu:
"Houtu, Yuanfeng has wreaked havoc in Primordial World Primordial World world for so many years, how can you, as the Earthly Dao Spokesperson, agree to release Yuanfeng?"
Nuwa believed that Houtu bore the primary responsibility for Yuanfeng regaining her freedom.
He admitted that he didn't know he was Human Dao Spokesperson at the time, which is why he agreed to release Yuanfeng.
I'm so glad I warned Houtu beforehand that if Bai Chen wanted to rescue Yuanfeng Yuanfeng, she absolutely shouldn't agree to release her. And what did she do in the end?
"Nuwa, Gonggong, Zhurong are my elder brothers, so naturally I must protect their lives."
Moreover, that's what I'm thinking. Even if I agree to release Yuanfeng, Yuanfeng won't regain her freedom!
Houtu felt that she had done nothing wrong, and if she could do it all over again, she would still make the same choice.
"Bad Cat, you're dead!"
Nuwa was so angry at the thought that Yuanfeng would soon regain his freedom that she gritted her teeth.
"Nuwa, you just became the Human Dao Spokesperson, you shouldn't have agreed to release Yuanfeng, right?"
Houtu vaguely sensed something was wrong and tentatively asked a question, hoping it wasn't what she suspected.
"Previously, Dao Ancestor Hongjun said that the Bad Cat had a way to save my brother's life. I thought that since the Human Dao Spokesperson had not yet appeared, I agreed to let the Bad Cat release Yuanfeng for the sake of my brother's life."
When Houtu asked her question, Nuwa's voice suddenly became a little weaker.
Houtu's eyes turned cold upon hearing this, and she sternly reprimanded Nuwa:
"Nuwa, how dare you reprimand me?"
Now, Bai Chen has gathered together the representatives of the three paths of Heaven, Earth, and Man to express their agreement with Yuanfeng.
With both Di Jun and Eastern Emperor Taiyi in Bai Chen's hands, Yuanfeng's regaining of freedom is now a foregone conclusion.
"Me~"
Knowing Nuwa was in the wrong, Nuwa hesitated, thinking it was all that Bad Cat's fault that she was being scolded by Houtu.
"Nuwa, I reckon even before we attained enlightenment, Little White already knew that we were the Human Dao Spokesperson and Earthly Dao Spokesperson, respectively."
Houtu shared her conjecture, which, though incredible, was the only explanation for everything.
Nuwa agreed with Houtu's analysis, saying that the Bad Cat definitely knew she was the future Human Dao Spokesperson, so it tricked her into agreeing to release Yuanfeng early on.
"You Bad Cat, get out here!"
Nuwa was furious and wanted to settle accounts with Bai Chen; she wanted to hang the cat up and beat it.
But Bai Chen had already slipped out of the Wa Saint Palace and had been on the run for some time.
"Jin Ning, where's the Bad Cat?"
Nuwa summoned her chief steward Jin Ning, to inquire about Bai Chen's whereabouts.
"Your Majesty, Bai Chen left the Wa Saint Palace while you were praying."
The head steward Jin Ning, could tell at a glance that Nuwa was angry, so he could only bite the bullet and answer.
"Snort!"
Nuwa snorted coldly, stared at the head steward Jin Ning, and asked in return:
"Jin Ning, Yuanfeng is going to regain her freedom, you're happy, aren't you?"
Nuwa strongly suspected that her first attendant was an accomplice of the Bad Cat.
"Jin Ning wouldn't dare!"
Nuwa's fury terrified Jin Ning, who kept begging for mercy.
Although she knew beforehand that Nuwa didn't want to release Yuanfeng, she hadn't expected Nuwa to be so furious about it.
"Snort!"
Nuwa snorted coldly. Considering that Jin Ning had served her for so many eons, she still didn't vent her anger on her and waved her hand to signal her to leave.
Houtu then spoke up and suggested:
"Nuwa, I reckon Little White has gone to the South Bright Undying Volcano. Let's go South Bright Undying Volcano and wait for him!"
Houtu knew without a doubt that Bai Chen had gone to the South Bright Undying Volcano to release Yuanfeng.
Nuwa did not refuse Houtu's suggestion, and the two of them directly broke through the void and headed to the South Bright Undying Volcano.
The South Bright Undying Volcano...
Houtu and Nuwa, the representatives of the Earth and Human realms respectively, broke through the void and arrived. Upon seeing them, the suppressed Yuanfeng transformed into its innate Dao body, bowed, and said:
"Greetings, Empress Nuwa Empress Houtu!"
Although Yuanfeng did not recognize Houtu, he guessed her identity by observing Hou Tu's arrival through Houtu void.
