Reincarnation Divine General, Houtu's Thoughts
In the Seventh Divine Palace, the Avici Divine Hall, a projection of magical power appeared in the hall, inside which stood a man dressed in Sun Moon Star Robe.
Upon seeing the man's figure, Houtu's Houtu calm face suddenly showed surprise, as if she had discovered the most unbelievable thing in the world.
"Ling Xiao, you actually came to the True Realm..." Hou Tu was momentarily lost in Houtu. Time had passed so long that she had almost forgotten some things, forgotten everything about the Primordial World.
Seeing Ling Xiao again now brought back long-buried memories, leaving her stunned for a moment.
When Houtu first arrived in the Origin True Realm, she kept in mind the Father God's instructions and tried every means to gain a foothold here, quietly developing and waiting for the day to come.
Her purpose in existing is to help Ling Xiao, so that one day she can play a role.
This was Pangu's arrangement.
Having just arrived in the Origin True Realm Houtu, Houtu wandered aimlessly, unfamiliar with the place and its people. However, since her cultivation was decent, she did not encounter any fatal dangers.
Later, Houtu met the master of the Seventh Divine Palace and was taken in as his disciple.
Houtu concealed her identity and used Reincarnation as her calling, thus beginning her meteoric rise to power.
Under the tutelage of the Temple Master, Houtu rose from an ordinary disciple to a Divine General in a short period of time, and then from the bottom-ranked Divine General to the second-ranked Divine General of the Avici Divine Hall, wielding great power.
His cultivation had reached the level of the seventh stage of the Great Dao, and he had mastered seven transcendent powers.
Such tremendous progress and earth-shaking changes were unbelievable even to Houtu herself.
At the same time, it also brought about a change in mindset.
For so long, Houtu had even forgotten Pangu's will and was almost forgetting her own mission.
In her view, Ling Xiao may have already become history, buried in the dust.
Unexpectedly, she saw Ling Xiao's figure once again in the Origin True Realm.
When did he arrive?
"My lord, what's wrong? Do you know this person?"
The female disciple, named Ziyuan, was someone who served Houtu. Seeing her master in a daze, the woman hesitated for a moment before slowly speaking.
She clearly observed the change in Houtu's expression when she saw the projection; it was an expression she had never seen before, so she couldn't help but ask.
Houtu regained her senses, her face returning to its usual calm, concealing the shock in her heart.
I guess so.
"Why does Your Highness intend to recruit this person into the palace?"
Houtu had been cultivating and was unaware of what had happened, her mind filled with mystery.
How did the Palace Master learn about Ling Xiao? Did he discover that Ling Xiao came from the same place as him and intentionally test him?
In just a moment, Houtu thought of many things.
If Ling Xiao knew of her existence, would he come looking for her, relying on the decree of Father God Pangu?
"Even if it's the Father God's decree, I want to see if you are now qualified to make me submit."
Houtu's expression turned cold. The Origin True Realm broadened her horizons, allowing her to see too much, so naturally she would not remain stuck in the Primordial World of the past.
So she wanted to see if Ling Xiao's vision was still limited to one place.
After listening to Houtu's words, the goddess Paper Kite told her everything in detail.
"Does Your Excellency not know what happened? It is said that this person came from the lower realm and offended the Lord of the Thousand Autumn Realm. Not long ago, the Lord of the Thousand Autumn Realm sent his envoy, True Monarch Hundred Tribulations, with the Lord's decree to the Mysterious Heaven Realm to kill this person."
But unexpectedly, this person almost killed True Monarch Hundred Tribulations, and even did so by attacking from below. At that time, his cultivation was only at the eighth level of Primordial Taiji.
"What? Is this true?" Houtu asked in astonishment. What a joke! Eighth level of Primordial Taiji, killing a half-step Great Dao Second Stage cultivator?
"Hmm... it should be true. It's all over the place now. The Palace Master heard about this, which is why he asked you to keep an eye on this person and recruit him into the Avici Divine Hall if possible."
"However, I think this person has offended the Lord of the Thousand Autumn Realm, and his future is bleak. He may disappear without a trace before long."
Paper Kite hesitated for a moment before expressing her opinion.
Houtu nodded slightly without speaking; she knew better than anyone the grudge between Wan Qianqiu and Ling Xiao.
If it weren't for Wan Qianqiu, I wouldn't have come here.
"As expected of you, Ling Xiao, you've caused such a commotion as soon as you arrived."
Houtu thought to herself, "This guy's style is just like in the Primordial World; he seems to thrive on chaos."
But this is the Origin True Realm, not the Primordial World; such behavior would be far too presumptuous.
After a long silence, Houtu slowly spoke, calmly saying, "Since the Palace Master has spoken, then we will comply."
Out of consideration for their past relationship, she decided to help Ling Xiao by bringing him into the Divine Hall, hoping that this might offer him a glimmer of hope.
Even if Wan Qianqiu wanted to kill Ling Xiao, he wouldn't directly attack the Avici Divine Hall. This would give Ling Xiao an extra layer of protection.
As long as you stay obediently in the Divine Hall, there will be no danger. Over time, this grudge may gradually fade away.
"I wonder how Ling Xiao will react when he finds out I've become the second Divine General."
Houtu smiled, a slight curve appearing at the corners of her lips.
This huge difference in status gave her a secret sense of satisfaction.
The reason for this is that he was once defeated by Ling Xiao and brought down from his pedestal.
But now I find a sliver of solace in it.
"My lord, do you intend to test this person yourself?"
The goddess Paper Kite asked inquisitively, her intuition telling her that the God of Reincarnation had an inexplicable relationship with this person.
She was curious, but she didn't dare ask.
Upon hearing this, Houtu paused for Houtu, then smiled and said:
"I'm not going, you can go in my place."
"Me? I'm afraid I'm not up to the task!" Paper Kite frowned, looking somewhat fearful and unwilling.
"If I mess this up, I can't afford to be blamed by the Palace Master."
After hearing her words, Houtu smiled and said, "It's alright, just go ahead and do your best, he will agree."
"At this critical juncture, he'd be overjoyed to receive an invitation from the Divine Hall; how could he possibly refuse you?"
"Does the master mean we should invite him to join without any assessment?"
"I'm surprised, "Paper Kite asked, her jewel-like eyes filled with confusion and astonishment.
"With his strength, he is more than qualified to join the Divine Hall. As for the assessment, I will personally conduct it once you bring him before me."
Houtu said with a smile, her face full of confidence.
"What if he doesn't come?" Paper Kite suddenly asked.
"There's no 'what if'. As long as you mention my name, he will definitely agree."
Houtu said calmly, "Although she changed her name, with Ling Xiao's intelligence, he might be able to guess something."
Upon hearing this, Paper Kite nodded emphatically. An invitation from the second divine general of the Divine Hall was something that could not be refused, no matter who the other party was.
