Nuwa Molds Earth to Create Humans, Xuanxiao Acts as Agent

Hongjun intervened in the battle too quickly, causing Jieyin and Zhunti to return to Mount Sumeru prematurely. Xuanxiao's mission failed, and he thought, "Damn, it didn't work. No, I have to trick Jieyin and Zhunti into coming out again."

"Ding, little idiot, can't you just let Nuwa create humans first? Do you really have to wield that big saber right now?" In the System Space, the Mature Woman sighed.

"Yeah, I haven't wielded a big saber yet. They're all High-grade Innate Spiritual Treasures. Can you swap the Phoenix Feather Sword for the Yangtian Blood Scatter Saber? I just feel like wielding a big saber would be fun. I already have the Primordial Sword, so the Phoenix Feather Sword doesn't matter much." Xuanxiao nodded, acting cute.

"Fine, you just want to wield a saber, I'll swap it for you. The reward for helping Nuwa create humans is the Yangtian Blood Scatter Saber." The System readily agreed, indulging him completely.

Upon hearing this, Xuanxiao excitedly ran to Empress Wa's palace and said, "Empress Wa, Emperor Xi, fellow Daoists, Xuanxiao has come to pay his respects."

"Haha, we're all family, why be so formal? Come in quickly." As he spoke, Fuxi welcomed Xuanxiao in and said, "When the Xuan Emperor appears, there are always benefits. You must be here to bring us benefits again, right?"

Xuanxiao chuckled sheepishly, "Uh, it's a bit awkward. I only brought benefits for Empress Wa this time, not yours..."

Fuxi's expression changed, and he turned to leave, saying, "Then you two chat, I'll go make you some tea." With that, he departed.

Nuwa smiled charmingly and said, "Xuanxiao, I suggest you don't drink it later. Elder Brother has been researching tea lately, and the tea he brews is, to put it mildly, undrinkable."

Xuanxiao shook his head, "How can I refuse tea brewed by Emperor Xi? Someone as distinguished as Daoist Fuxi, how bad can his tea be?"

Nuwa secretly chuckled in her heart, You'll find out soon enough.

Seeing Nuwa remain silent, Xuanxiao said, "Empress Wa, I know your path to Sainthood: creation complemented by great merit."

Nuwa heard this and asked, "Where will such great merit come from?"

Xuanxiao chuckled, "Great merit, what could be greater than creating a new race? Currently, the Witch and Demon races each occupy half the Primordial World. If this continues, there will surely be trouble. Creating a new race would be the true balance."

Nuwa looked speechless, "Putting aside the difficulty of creating a new race, how would a newborn race survive? Aren't the clan leaders of other races Grand Unity Golden Immortals at the very least? A newborn race wouldn't even have a True Immortal. Is this creating a race? It's practically adding a new dish to the menu for all the races in the Primordial World."

Xuanxiao shook his head, "Empress Wa, focus on achieving Sainthood first. Afterwards, we can set up a protective formation, and that will be enough, right?"

Nuwa fell into thought. After a moment, she asked, "Daoist Xuanxiao, can you get the Three Lights Divine Water and Nine Heavens Breathing Soil?"

Xuanxiao nodded, "Of course, I can get those things." As he spoke, he took out a bottle of Three Lights Divine Water and said, "I have the Nine Heavens Breathing Soil in my Daoist Palace. Let's go get it later."

Nuwa nodded, "Let's go now. My Elder Brother's tea is truly undrinkable." Just as she finished speaking, Fuxi came out with three cups of tea, saying, "Daoist Xuanxiao, here, let's have a cup together."

Xuanxiao took the cup and gulped it down. His expression changed drastically. He thought, "Listen to advice, eat well. The ancients were truly wise. This tea... tastes so magical." Then, Xuanxiao looked at Fuxi and asked, "Emperor Xi, when did you brew this tea?"

Fuxi laughed heartily, "I picked this tea when I first took human form. I don't tell just anyone, it's a truly aged, fine tea."

Xuanxiao was speechless, "Emperor Xi, tea isn't like wine; it's not good if it's too old." Saying this, he took out three boxes of Bitter Bamboo branches and said, "Here, top-quality Bitter Bamboo. Genuine good tea, I shaved it off Jieyin's head. It's a spiritual root of the Quasi-Saint realm. This tea is delicious."

Fuxi laughed heartily, "Thank you, fellow Daoist. You and my sister have things to discuss, so I will take my leave."

Xuanxiao said, "Don't go, Emperor Xi. Please accompany us. We'll need your help to look after the new race later."
