Before Suirenshi could react, Chen Sheng immediately ran back into his Cave Abode, casually pulled a weed from the ground, and brought it out.
Suirenshi stared blankly at the weed in Chen Sheng's hand, dirt still clinging to its roots. He really just pulled this out at random?
Holding the weed carefully in both hands, Chen Sheng said to Suirenshi with an unusually solemn expression, "This is a supreme treasure. Take it back with you, and it will surely protect the Human Race."
Chen Sheng was helpless too. As an Imposter Grand Unity, he himself didn't even dare go to the Primordial World, yet he was supposed to protect the Human Race!?
While Suirenshi was still dazed, Chen Sheng directly stuffed the weed into his hands, then swiftly turned around and went back into his Cave Abode, conveniently shutting the door behind him.
Suirenshi: ...
Did I look like an idiot?
Was he even being polite?
There wasn't the slightest trace of Magic Power coming from this weed. Aside from being a little greener than the other grass, it was completely indistinguishable from a weed.
If Suirenshi's eyes weren't deceiving him, wasn't this just an ordinary, unremarkable weed!?
Suirenshi suspected that Chen Sheng was trying to fob him off, but he couldn't find any evidence.
However, Chen Sheng had already shut him out, so Suirenshi could only helplessly take the weed and return to the Human Race's territory.
He would come back and persuade him next time. They lived nearby, anyway!
After Chen Sheng shut the door to his Cave Abode, he finally had some peace and quiet.
Suirenshi urged him to leave seclusion every time. Did he look like an idiot?
Chen Sheng then looked around his Cave Abode.
Hmm...
It was a little shabby.
Chen Sheng's Cave Abode was extremely dilapidated, and its furnishings were as simple as they could possibly be.
The thing he used for his daily meditation and cultivation was an old, worn-out meditation cushion.
There was also a pill cauldron that looked decidedly low-grade; an ordinary tea tree that stayed lush and green all year round;
a rusty iron sword; and a pitiful broken blade snapped into two pieces.
Chen Sheng couldn't help sighing. Other transmigrators picked up all kinds of treasures until their hands went numb, but how had things become so miserable for him?
These things couldn't even be considered treasures. They were just a pile of junk!
Meanwhile, after fleeing from Shouyang Mountain in disarray, Nuwa went straight back to Wa Huang Palace.
To keep anyone from seeing her in such a sorry state, she had been sneaking around the entire way.
But people were strange sometimes—the more you tried to avoid something, the more certain it was to find you!
Nuwa had just passed through the main hall and breathed a sigh of relief when she turned around and ran straight into Fuxi, who was looking at her inquisitively.
Nuwa felt somewhat awkward. She rubbed her head and said, "Ahem, Big Brother, what are you doing here?"
Fuxi had originally come to check on Nuwa, only to run into her sneaking around Wa Huang Palace as though she were afraid of being seen.
Wa Huang Palace was Nuwa's domain, so he had no idea what she was trying to hide from.
Moreover, Nuwa looked rather disheveled, which struck Fuxi as strange. He asked, "Little Sister, where have you been? Why are you in such a sorry state?"
Nuwa was so embarrassed she could have died. She couldn't exactly tell Fuxi that she had just been imprisoned in the River of Time by a Grand Unity, could she?
That would be humiliating beyond belief!
So she could only pretend to be calm and answer vaguely, "It's nothing, Big Brother. I merely went to the mortal world to collect incense offerings."
Fuxi found that strange. If Nuwa had only gone to the mortal world to collect incense offerings, why had she been acting so abnormally in Wa Huang Palace?
Fuxi stroked his chin and asked inquisitively, "Really?"
Nuwa's eyes darted away as she replied hesitantly, "Of course it's true!"
All she wanted now was for Fuxi to let go of his suspicions. If he kept questioning her, how was she supposed to make up an excuse?
If everyone in the Primordial World found out that the dignified Saint Nuwa had been banished into the River of Time by a Grand Unity, wouldn't that be utterly humiliating!?
No, how could she, Nuwa, allow such a thing to happen!
She had to enter seclusion at once. Once she became stronger, she would avenge today's humiliation!
Fuxi watched Nuwa and nodded thoughtfully. He simply didn't believe that a trip to the Human Race could provoke such a huge reaction!
What a strange matter. Nuwa had always been proud all these years, so how had she ended up showing such a panicked expression?
Wait...
Could Nuwa have fallen in love?
That's right, that's right!
All these years, Nuwa had never lost her composure like this.
Now that she was a Saint, it was even more impossible for her to show such an expression. So she must have fallen in love!
