Primordial Era: Mistaking the Jade Emperor for My Son at the Start

Seeing Yunxiao was about to arrive, Zhao Gongming slapped his thigh in annoyance. How could I not have thought of this just now!

Yang Jian, however, was quick-witted. He saw Yunxiao take the hoe, but there was still a large half of the wooden handle left, about two feet long!

"Grandpa, this piece of wood, give it to me!" Yang Jian happily trotted over and immediately snatched the piece of wood.

"Damn it! How could I not have thought of this! This half-broken stick is also good!"

Seeing Yang Jian pick up the half-broken piece of wood as well, Zhao Gongming was completely dejected!

He had lost out big time!

After all, that half-broken stick was also a Great Dao Artifact!

The Kirin Ancestor, a large black dog, first looked at Yunxiao with envy, then at Yang Jian with jealousy.

Even without a spirit, this Great Dao Artifact was far more advanced than a Xiantian Supreme Treasure. Even a Chaos Supreme Treasure couldn't compare to this broken hoe.

The wooden handle was the same! A wooden stick of a Great Dao Artifact!

How could it be simple!

Looking at Yunxiao, who had run off, the Jade Emperor praised, "This little girl is quite clever, she got such a great deal."

Zhang Yifan slapped the back of the Jade Emperor's head. "Got a great deal? It's just a broken hoe, I have plenty of those. Hurry up and get to work for me. I need to plant this acre of cabbage before dark."

Jade Emperor: Great Dao Artifacts are plentiful???

"Dad, can you be a little gentler? What if you beat me into an idiot?"

The Jade Emperor looked wronged, then kicked Sect Master Tongtian, cursing, "Little Tongtong, what are you standing around for? Hurry up and plant the vegetables! What if we don't finish before dark? Do we still want to eat dinner?"

"My heavens!"

Sect Master Tongtian was furious! His face was full of grievance.

You got hit by your dad, what's it to me? Why are you kicking me!

Damn it, if I can't afford to offend you, can't I just avoid you? It's fine if I just ignore you.

Sect Master Tongtian huffed, but didn't retaliate. Instead, he flicked his sleeve forcefully and went to water the vegetables.

Chapter 37: Little Beggar? No, Saintess Nuwa

The Jade Emperor and Sect Master Tongtian helped Zhang Yifan dig the ground and plant the big cabbages.

They did a decent job, and Zhang Yifan was very satisfied. He even praised them as good hands at agriculture and said they should do more farm work in the future.

As for the Queen Mother, Yang Jian, Taibai Jinxing, San Xiao, and others, they weren't idle either. Following Zhang Yifan's instructions, they were picking vegetables, washing them, starting fires, and boiling water.

The actual cooking would still have to be done by Zhang Yifan himself.

The farmhouse yard was a lively scene.

Everyone was busy, chatting and laughing, exchanging pleasantries, creating a warm and harmonious atmosphere.

It was just like a family going on a trip to a rural resort.

In the evening, Zhang Yifan had cooked several hundred dishes, and also prepared a roast pig and a roast lamb.

The aroma of the food could be smelled for several kilometers.

Several kilometers away, above the clouds.

Nuwa frowned, muttering to herself, "I was following him, he's nearby, but I lost him. I've been searching all afternoon and still haven't found him. Where did this Jade Emperor go?"

Ever since Spiritual Mountain was dug up by two mysterious powerful beings, Nuwa had started to have her doubts.

The Jade Emperor suddenly confronted the Western Teachings head-on, annihilated the Journey to the West team, reclaimed the authority to appoint and dismiss righteous gods in the Heavenly Court, and even tried to kill Taishang Laojun.

Sect Master Tongtian, who had disappeared for over a hundred thousand years, suddenly reappeared and even helped the Jade Emperor. Even more shocking, he dared to insult Dao Ancestor Hongjun!

All of this, no matter how one looked at it, made people feel that the Jade Emperor had someone behind him.

And it seemed to be related to Sect Master Tongtian.

Nuwa knew how terrifying the Primordial Era Tribulation was. One wrong step could lead to eternal damnation.

During the Investiture of the Gods Tribulation, the remaining elite cultivators of her demon race were all but wiped out. From then on, the demon race declined completely, never to rise again.

"Mmm~ What a delicious smell."

Nuwa, at an altitude of ten thousand meters, suddenly smelled the aroma of food. Her delicate nose twitched involuntarily.

"Huh? This food aroma seems to subtly reveal traces of laws!"

Saintess Nuwa was startled and couldn't help but sniff again carefully.

"That's right! There are faint traces of laws!"

"Who made this food that its mere aroma is so astonishing!" Nuwa exclaimed in shock!

Such a thing, unheard of and unseen, she had encountered today!

Nuwa sniffed the air like a dog, tracking the source of the aroma.

Finally, Nuwa saw Zhang Yifan's farmhouse yard, and also saw the Jade Emperor, Sect Master Tongtian, and others in the yard.

"As expected! The Jade Emperor is connected to Sect Master Tongtian! Sect Master Tongtian actually came out despite the punishment of facing the wall for a thousand years from Dao Ancestor."

"Hmm? This courtyard is clearly right here, yet I can't deduce its location?!"

Nuwa was shocked again. It was right before her eyes, yet she couldn't deduce it.

Is a Sage interfering with the heavenly secrets?!

Nuwa's thoughts churned, and the aroma of the food made her mouth water.

It smells so damn good!

More importantly, the aura of the Laws grew even stronger!

"This isn't the aura of the Heavenly Dao Laws, it's the aura of the Great Dao Laws!" Nuwa couldn't help but exclaim.

There's a great opportunity here!

This opportunity is unprecedented! It's even better than achieving sainthood!

Nuwa's chest heaved, her eyes shining.

But how could she approach this great opportunity?

Force my way in?

Nuwa shook her head inwardly. Forcing her way in was definitely not an option.

Never mind Sect Master Tongtian, just the other few inexplicably terrifying auras within the small courtyard were enough to make one's heart pound.

"Got it!"

An idea struck Nuwa, and a smile appeared on her lips.

Immediately, Nuwa descended from the clouds, landing a few hundred meters away from Zhang Yifan's small courtyard. She transformed herself, concealing her aura and becoming a thirteen or fourteen-year-old little beggar.

The beggar girl's clothes were tattered, her hair was messy, and she was thin and sallow, looking utterly pitiful.

With me looking so pathetic, if I go to beg for food, they won't chase me out, right!

Nuwa walked towards Zhang Yifan's small courtyard with full confidence.

Inside the courtyard, Zhang Yifan was arranging bowls and chopsticks. Although the Jade Emperor and the others were eager to eat, they hadn't started yet.

Zhang Yifan hadn't sat down yet, so how could the Jade Emperor dare to pick up his chopsticks?

"Dad, I'll pour you some wine!"

The Jade Emperor obediently and dutifully poured wine for Zhang Yifan.

"Grandpa, I'll get you some food." Sect Master Tongtian also ingratiatingly picked up food for Zhang Yifan.

"Great-Grandpa, have this lamb leg." Yunxiao, Qiongxiao, Bixiao, and Zhao Gongming also offered their services.

"Alright, alright, that's enough, I can do it myself, I can do it myself." Zhang Yifan laughed heartily, happier than he could express.

"Everyone, please sit down." Zhang Yifan waved his hands to signal everyone to sit.

"Let me state upfront, everyone, eat slowly, eat well, don't rush, okay? We'll have a few more drinks tonight."

"Yes!"

The Jade Emperor, Sect Master Tongtian, and the others blushed and responded.

It seemed that their ravenous behavior during the previous few meals had thoroughly frightened Zhang Yifan.

"Okay, let's begin!" Zhang Yifan announced.

Hearing this, the Jade Emperor and the others no longer held back, and each began to pile food onto their plates.

The dishes piled up so high they could barely fit, yet they kept piling more!

As if afraid there would be no food left on the plates later.

He had said to eat slowly, but he hadn't said to pick up food slowly!

Yunxiao and the others were doing the same, stacking their food like a tower, piling it incredibly high.

The Jade Emperor and the others thought to themselves, I'm so clever.

Zhang Yifan watched this scene and shook his head. Why do these guys always act like they're afraid of starving to death?

Once they had piled enough food onto their plates, the Jade Emperor contentedly raised his wine cup and said with a smile, "Come, Dad worked hard today, I toast to Dad!"

"To Grandpa!"

"To Great-Grandpa!"

"To maternal grandfather!"

Everyone raised their cups to toast.
