Ginseng Fruit Gathering, Departure, Return

Although there were many Ginseng Fruits, quite a few people shared them.

Each of the Daluo can have one, as can Hao, Yao, Little Moon Spirit, and the Little Fox. But the others will have to share.

Therefore, Zhen Yuanzi also took out the Ginseng Fruit he had stored.

And so, as they savored the Ginseng Fruit, they shared their experiences. Of course, they didn't talk about how delicious the Ginseng Fruit was, but rather the Great Dao Ginseng Fruit it brought them...

Therefore, the Dao Resonance once again began to circulate in the Wuzhuang Temple.

The little ones once again took this opportunity to enter a state of enlightenment.

In this way, thousands of years have passed in the blink of an eye.

The Eastern King Duke was the first to bid farewell to Zhen Yuanzi. He planned to take the Queen Mother of the West to visit his Fusang Tang Valley and asked if anyone was interested in going with them.

Who would want to be a third wheel? To be forced to watch other people's lovey-dovey moments? Even Taiyi for his brother and Changxi, refused outright.

Next to take his leave was Taiyi. Wu Chu asked him where he was going. Taiyi said he would just wander around this Primordial Land and didn't want to go back to the Sun Star yet.

Wu Chu could guess a little about what Taiyi was thinking, after all, Wu Chu had also experienced the pain of "the person you love is getting married, but the groom is not you".

"After I've wandered around outside and gotten bored, I'll go to your Purple Jade Mountain to ask for some spirit wine to drink, and while I'm at it, I'll sample Little Moon Spirit's cooking. Brother A Chu, you won't mind, will you?"

Wu Chu chuckled and punched his massive, steel-hard pectoral muscles, saying, "As long as you don't come to Purple Jade Mountain to abduct those Little Flower Fairies, I'll welcome you!"

Upon hearing Wu Chu bring up the old story again, Taiyi laughed heartily, then raised his chin with a hint of smugness before waving goodbye to everyone and leaping away in a rainbow.

The third to leave was Hong Yun, which was somewhat unexpected by Wu Chu.

"Brother Hong Yun, have you finally realized your true feelings?" Wu Chu smiled at Hong Yun, recalling the method he had taught Hong Yun to recognize his own feelings.

Hong Yun coughed lightly and said seriously, "No! That's not true! Don't talk nonsense!"

Seeing Hong Yun's appearance, even Zhen Yuanzi laughed.

As Hong Yun, sleeves twirling, hands behind his back, cursing and swearing, rode away on a cloud, Zhen Yuanzi chuckled confidently and said, "He lied! Heh heh... This is the first time he's lied in all the years we've known each other. He's really not good at this!"

Wu Chu smiled and said, "Hopefully, a woman can teach him to lie!"

Fuxi, Nuwa, Hao, and Yao were all taken aback by Wu Chu's words.

What does this mean? Does it mean that lying is a good thing?

Only Zhen Yuanzi and Houtu understood the meaning behind Wu Chu's actions.

But soon, Wu Chu felt a pain on both sides of his waist and ribs. Two fleshy pincers had somehow clamped down on the soft flesh of his waist, hidden by his wide sleeves.

Her smiling face seemed to be asking him: What did you mean by that? Are you saying that we taught you to lie? And what lie did you tell us?

Faced with this silent question, Wu Chu could only grit his teeth and silently endure it. After all, he had chosen these two women himself! Who could he blame?

Nuwa tilted her head and glanced at Fuxi, Fuxi and proud, exuding an air of righteousness.

Yao tilted her head and looked at Hao, leaving Hao completely bewildered.

Zhen Yuanzi glanced at them, then turned and left with a flick of his sleeve.

At this moment, Hao also said to Wu Chu, "Senior brother, sisters-in-law, Yao and I should also go back to the mountain. We've been away for thousands of years, and if we don't go back soon, Master might get angry!"

Upon hearing this, Wu Chu wanted to tell them a bloody truth, but then thought better of it; there was no need to hurt these two 'young' hearts.

He nodded. "Alright! Go back to the mountain and serve your master well! Also, try to improve your cultivation a bit more. I reckon Hao will be able to reach the Daluo realm soon!"

Hao nodded and said, "This trip has been quite fruitful. I hope that when I see my senior brother again, I will have already reached the Daluo Realm!"

And so, Hao and Yao took their leave.

In order to wait for those little ones to enter a state of enlightenment, Wu Chu and his group stayed at Wuzhuang Temple for another ten thousand years.

More than 10,000 years later, Wu Chu accepted a branch of a Ginseng Fruit Tree given to him by Zhen Yuanzi, and led everyone to bid farewell to Zhen Yuanzi and Departure return home.

Although these little guys have all made progress in their cultivation, they haven't made any major breakthroughs. They need more time to gradually mature.

Accompanying them were Fuxi and Nuwa, who had been staying with them at Wuzhuang Temple.

For over ten thousand years, Wu Chu have not seen Fuxi take any action against Nuwa, and they are quite puzzled about what Fuxi was thinking.

Watching Wu Chu and Fuxi ride the clouds away, Little Qingfeng sighed softly, "It feels like the Wuzhuang Temple, which has been bustling for ten thousand years, has suddenly become deserted!"

Little Mingyue nodded in agreement.

Zhen Yuanzi stood with his hands behind his back, head tilted back, letting the gentle breeze ruffle his robes and hair. He smiled and said, "We cultivators must be able to endure this loneliness and solitude. Before I enlightened you two, I cultivated alone in these mountains and didn't feel any loneliness or desolation. Your cultivation is still incomplete. Go and meditate for a hundred years!"

"..."

After flying for several days, Wu Chu saw the Great River. They took out the Tower Ship and threw it into the Great River. Everyone sat on the Tower Ship and drifted on the Great River.

More than a hundred years later, Fuxi and Nuwa bid farewell to Wu Chu and Chu and went ashore to leave.

Wu Chu wanted to persuade them to stay, but Fuxi refused outright.

This made Wu Chu very suspicious. Was Fuxi afraid that his attempts to curry favor with Nuwa would be seen and ridiculed? Had he remained inactive for ten thousand years, waiting to return and, when no outsiders were around, quietly become a sycophant unknown to anyone?

Clearly, Wu Chu will not get an answer to this question for the time being.

Even Nuwa didn't insist, so Wu Chu naturally couldn't force them and could only offer their blessings.

Even after Fuxi and Nuwa left, the people of Wu Chu continued to sing and dance as before.

Decades later, one day, in the distant sky, leaden clouds Rolling, and a dragon's shadow and another beast's shadow flickered within the clouds, creating streaks of light.

Suddenly, a fierce wind arose, and torrential rain poured down, turning the world into a vast expanse of desolation.

The light flickered continuously within the leaden clouds, drifting aimlessly across the sky, occasionally piercing through the clouds to illuminate the blurry figures of two colossal beasts.

The crowd, facing the rain, looked up, curiously gazing at the scene in the distant sky.

Roar...

The roars of beasts continued, and the soaring cries of dragons filled the air.

Wu Chu frowned slightly, signaling Yoyo to hurry up and leave.

The Dragon Clan and the Qilin Clan are probably fighting again, which has little to do with them.

From the moment Wu Chu saw Yazi come to become the Great River Water Lord, Wu Chu knew that the Great River Basin wouldn't be peaceful for long, and that the Dragon Clan and the Qilin Clan would inevitably clash sooner or later.

It seems that this rare Epoch of peace is about to turn chaotic again.
