As Houtu arrived, she happened to see Xuanming and Bai Chen confronting each other.

So fat!

This was Houtu's first impression of Bai Chen. Although Bai Chen wasn't large, it was covered in flesh.

Even its small tail was chubby and quite thick.

Houtu reached out and poked Bai Chen's fleshy belly, confirming that it wasn't just fluffy fur; it was simply fat.

Bai Chen guessed Houtu's identity and shot her an annoyed glance.

This Witch just started touching me without any manners. How rude!

Bai Chen flicked its tail, shaking off Houtu's hand.

Considering your future identity as the Earthly Dao Spokesperson, I'll let you touch me this once.

If you want to touch me again, you'll have to offer something!

Xuanming glared fiercely at Bai Chen. This cat is clearly playing favorites!

When she had tried to grab it earlier, it had dodged and even counter-attacked.

But when her sister Houtu touched it, it didn't dodge and didn't counter-attack, merely flicking her hand away with its tail!

This is blatant favoritism. What did Nuwa teach her Pet Beast?

Bai Chen: "Xuanming, can you compare to Houtu?"

"Houtu can achieve Dao in the future and become the Earthly Dao Spokesperson!"

"You are Sister Nuwa's Pet Beast—Bai Chen?"

"I am Ancestor Witch Houtu~"

Houtu greeted Bai Chen and introduced herself.

"Stop right there!"

Bai Chen interrupted her and retorted:

"Who said this Great God is Nuwa's Pet Beast? This Great God and Nuwa are just friends."

Bai Chen solemnly informed Houtu of its relationship with Nuwa. Beasts will never be slaves, not even for free room and board!

Houtu took Bai Chen's chubby paw and asked:

"Bai Chen, can we be friends?"

Houtu could guarantee that she purely wanted to be friends with Bai Chen; petting the cat was just a bonus.

"Mhm~"

Bai Chen nodded and then patted its chest, saying:

"This Great God loves making friends the most. Houtu, you are qualified to be my friend."

As the saying goes, having more friends means having more paths.

Bai Chen thought that if Nuwa's path ever had problems, at least it would have Houtu as a backup.

Nuwa: You scummy cat!

"This Great God is treating you to something, don't be polite!"

Bai Chen took out two cheap Houtian Xun Grasses, handed one to Houtu, and started munching on the other.

Houtu took the Xun Grass from Bai Chen's hand. At this moment, she finally understood why Bai Chen was so fat. It was just two words: gluttony!

Because Xuanming had used the power of laws, Nuwa also sensed the anomaly. When she arrived, the scene before her made her face turn incredibly grim.

Bai Chen was sitting on Houtu's shoulder, bragging to the Xuanming and Houtu sisters.

It was boasting about Great God Bai Chen's great battle against the Fierce Beast clan, its fight against Beast Emperor Shen Ni, and its contest with First Qilin for the overlordship of the Beasts.

That's right, Bai Chen was completely fabricating everything.

And Xuanming and Houtu, having never left Buzhou Mountain, were unaware of the outside world's situation.

Although they had some doubts, they didn't know how to refute it.

"Little White!"

Nuwa was somewhat annoyed. She had hidden this fat cat precisely to keep it away from Xuanming and Houtu.

But this fat cat had run out to seek opportunities, causing her worry, and now it was here cozying up to the Xuanming and Houtu sisters. This was too much!

This fat cat was bought with Spiritual Treasures from Mystic Sky Fire Phoenix. How could this cat be hooking up with others behind her back!

Upon hearing the words "Little White," Bai Chen instinctively turned its head and saw Nuwa burning with rage.

"Little White, you'd better come back with me yourself, or don't blame me for exposing your true colors!"

Nuwa had just heard Bai Chen's bragging. This fat cat competing with First Qilin for the position of Beast Lord?

These words could only fool the two fools, Xuanming and Houtu, as they were unaware of the outside situation.

Nuwa figured that if Bai Chen dared to fight First Qilin, it would be a three-seven split, with Bai Chen dying seven times in three breaths!

Chapter 6: Bai Chen Mediates a Fight!

Dying seven times in three breaths wasn't because Nuwa looked down on Bai Chen, but rather because she was already giving it considerable respect.

The First Qilin's cultivation was already at Half-step Dao Proving, while Bai Chen was merely a High-level Golden Immortal who had opened three flowers on its crown.

(Hongjun had not yet preached, so realms like Taiyi Golden Immortal, Grand Unity Golden Immortal, and Quasi-Saint did not exist.

Currently, everyone was a Golden Immortal, with the cultivation levels being Low-level (Ordinary) Golden Immortal, Mid-level (Taiyi) Golden Immortal, High-level (Grand Unity) Golden Immortal, and Half-step Dao Proving!)

With Bai Chen's current cultivation, Nuwa felt that it would be effortless for the First Qilin to instantly kill it.

Bai Chen's contention with the First Qilin for the Lord of Beasts was simply impossible!

"Hmph!"

Facing Nuwa's threat, Bai Chen let out a cold snort, clearly displeased.

As its friend, Nuwa not only didn't help Great God Bai Chen cover up its lie but even tried to threaten it. How detestable!

Bai Chen was now hesitant. It didn't want to yield to evil forces, but it was also afraid that Nuwa would expose it.

After all, it would be incredibly embarrassing if Nuwa revealed the truth right after it had just boasted.

As Bai Chen hesitated, Nuwa flickered and instantly appeared beside it.

Nuwa grabbed Bai Chen by the scruff of its neck and said:

"Little White, those Ancestor Witches enjoy eating raw flesh. Be careful they don't eat you."

Nuwa believed this was for Bai Chen's own good. Cultivation was not easy, and how tragic would it be if it were eaten by an Ancestor Witch, its innate creation turning into nothingness!

Just as Nuwa was about to pick Bai Chen up, Ancestor Witch Xuanming called out to Nuwa:

"Fellow Daoist Nuwa, this is Buzhou Mountain, transformed from our Father God. Since Bai Chen appeared on Buzhou Mountain, it should belong to us Ancestor Witches. Do you agree?"

As Ancestor Witch Xuanming's voice fell, the power of law surged, serving as a warning to Nuwa.

Having been wrongly accused by Nuwa earlier, Xuanming was already furious. Now, Xuanming was done pretending.

If Nuwa handed Bai Chen over to her and her sisters, this matter would be dropped, and past grievances would vanish like smoke.

Otherwise, don't blame Ancestor Witch Xuanming for being impolite.

"Fellow Daoist Xuanming, if you insist on taking action, this humble daoist will accompany you."

Nuwa extended a hand, and its accompanying primordial treasure, the Primordial Holy Sword, appeared in its grasp.

Nuwa knew that the Ancestor Witches possessed formidable physical prowess and divine abilities, but she trusted that her accompanying primordial treasure, the Primordial Holy Sword, could break through their physical abilities.

Upon seeing the Primordial Holy Sword, Bai Chen immediately became excited, waving its little claws incessantly.

Nuwa's accompanying primordial treasure, the Primordial Holy Sword, was a supreme exotic treasure, the greatest creation in the Primordial Era, capable of rivaling innate supreme treasures.

Bai Chen wanted it, desperately wanted it.

Bai Chen felt it was a waste for the Primordial Holy Sword to be in Nuwa's hands because, in the later stages, Nuwa would dismantle it to achieve Dao Proving. The hilt would become the Heaven Refining Furnace, the blade would transform into the Four Treasures Sword, and the scabbard would become the Creation Immortal Cauldron.

Bai Chen thought Nuwa was a prodigal woman, lamenting that such a supreme exotic treasure as the Primordial Holy Sword was dismantled.

If the Primordial Holy Sword were Great God Bai Chen's own accompanying primordial treasure, it would sleep with it every day and would never bear to dismantle it.

As Nuwa brought out the Primordial Holy Sword, the law of creation emanating from its body surged.

Just as the two sides were about to clash, reinforcements arrived for Xuanming and Nuwa.

Nuwa's reinforcement was the troublesome Fuxi, while Xuanming's reinforcements were the other Ancestor Witches.

"Fuxi, Nuwa, we Ancestor Witches, out of consideration for you siblings transforming and attaining the Dao on Buzhou Mountain, and out of respect for our Father God's benevolence, did not drive you out of Buzhou Mountain."

"Are you now trying to oppose Pangu's Orthodox Lineage? Do you think you are qualified?"

Ancestor Witch Dijiang, who broke through the void, roared at Fuxi and Nuwa. He felt that the siblings Fuxi and Nuwa were ungrateful.

"Ancestor Witch Dijiang, stop spewing nonsense! It's clearly Xuanming who wants to snatch my Little White!"

"If you twelve Ancestor Witches want to fight, then fight! Do you really think Nuwa is afraid of you!"

Nuwa had long been dissatisfied with the overbearing nature of the Ancestor Witch lineage. She knew the Ancestor Witches disliked her and her brother, and she also disliked the Ancestor Witch lineage.

After the Dragon-Phoenix Calamity in later generations, Nuwa moved her dojo with Fuxi from Buzhou Mountain to Phoenix Perch Mountain for two reasons:

Primarily because the conflict between her siblings and the Witch Clan deepened, and secondly, because of her promise to Yuan Feng to protect the Phoenix Clan!

Today's incident with Bai Chen was merely the fuse, igniting the situation prematurely.

As Nuwa activated the Primordial Holy Sword with the law of creation, the sword emitted a divine radiance, the power of creation surged, and the four elements of earth, water, wind, and fire erupted!

The Ancestor Witches immediately felt like they were facing a great enemy. Nuwa's strength was more formidable than they had anticipated!

To be precise, they hadn't expected Nuwa to possess such a precious treasure as the Primordial Holy Sword.

"Esteemed brothers and sisters, Sister Nuwa, please stop fighting!"
