Fuxi's Birth

Since Dun Dun arrived, Profound Pure Peak had become much livelier. Xuan Heng also found that the bamboo grove was better suited for drinking tea and enjoying the scenery in his spare time, so he built another thatched cottage there.

Kong Xuan and Six Ears followed suit and built thatched cottages there as well. Aside from when the two cultivated, the mountaintop was usually deserted.

Six Ears's favorite thing each day after cultivating was to watch Dun Dun patrol beside the bamboo grove. Though it was called patrolling, it was really just eating its way from one end of the grove to the other.

If Kong Xuan had not checked on it every day, the Innate Azure Bamboo Xuan Heng had painstakingly cultivated would probably have been gnawed bare over a whole stretch.

That day, Xuan Heng was reclining in a lounge chair beneath the sun, tea simmering in a small stove beside him. Dun Dun lay beside the bamboo grove, happily gnawing on a mature bamboo shoot in its arms.

Six Ears sat in a tree, looking down at it.

"Dun Dun, you're Master's mount, at least. Could you act a little more like one?"

Dun Dun looked up at him.

"Master isn't going anywhere. What's the rush?"

Six Ears choked on his words.

Xuan Heng laughed when he heard that. Just as he was about to speak, he sensed a familiar aura descending beyond Profound Pure Peak.

"Xuandu is here."

Kong Xuan approached from afar and looked toward the mountain gate.

"This disciple will go greet Senior Brother Xuandu."

Xuan Heng waved his hand.

"No need. Let him come up."

Before long, Xuandu arrived.

When he saw Dun Dun lying beside the bamboo grove and chewing bamboo shoots, his footsteps clearly faltered.

Dun Dun saw him as well.
