Do You Look Down on My Snake Tail?

Wu Chu smiled and said, "Little Moon Spirit, there's no need to be nervous. There's nothing to hide. Actually, my real name is Wu Chu. 'The Mountain Recluse Who Never Leaves' is just a self-chosen Daoist name. A name is just a code name; there's nothing to hide."

"You Mountain Recluse Who Never Leaves, do you not intend to leave Purple Jade Mountain?"

Nuwa looked at Wu Chu and found it somewhat amusing.

Upon hearing this, Wu Chu laughed heartily and said, "You understand me, fellow Daoist!"

As they were talking, a slight tremor seemed to appear in Fuxi's zither music. Wu Chu turned to look at him and asked with a smile, "Fellow Daoist Fuxi, what has moved you?"

"What?"

Fuxi gave a perfunctory reply, as if he were playing dumb.

Then, deliberately pressing down on the string with his left hand, producing a vibrato, he asked, "What do you mean, fellow Daoist?"

Haha! A fiercely protective brother!

Wu Chu smiled without saying a word, but soon he coughed lightly, thinking to himself: Strange! Why do I always find myself involuntarily provoking this sister-protecting maniac!

"Seniors, Brother A Chu, I... I'll go wash the dishes now!"

Little Moon Spirit sensed that the atmosphere was somewhat unusual, so she quickly made her escape.

Wu Chu held his wine cup, no longer trying to provoke Fuxi. He had just reconciled with this fiercely protective brother over the course of a meal; if he were to flirt with him again now, wouldn't all his previous efforts have been in vain?

So Wu Chu became obedient, and his words became more charming, often making Nuwa giggle and cover her mouth. In her pleasant mood, Nuwa naturally displayed her girlish liveliness and vivacity to the fullest.

If it weren't for the slight reverence he felt for this goddess, which he felt he couldn't bear to disrespect, Wu Chu estimated that he would have found it difficult to resist her Dao Resonance charm.

However, this only made Fuxi suspicious and dissatisfied, and he always wanted to take Nuwa away from this place of trouble as soon as possible.

Wu Chu could understand Fuxi's thoughts as an older brother. After all, when a younger sister comes into contact with a man, most older brothers would wonder, "Can this man stay?"

However, Nuwa did not listen to Fuxi, and the two stayed on Purple Jade Mountain.

For several days in a row, everyone got along quite well.

Nuwa's temperament differs greatly from the Wu Chu people's imagination of the ancestor of the Human Clan.

In Wu Chu's imagination, Empress Nuwa was an incomparably gentle and kind mother goddess, radiating a warm and maternal glow.

In reality, although the Nuwa before us was gentle and kind, she lacked any maternal radiance. Instead, she was lively and agile like a young girl, full of curiosity about all sorts of new facts. She was not the future ancestor of the Human Clan who knew everything.

To be honest, Wu Chu didn't quite understand Nuwa's intention in staying there, so one day he thought about it and then took an opportunity to tentatively ask them if they could take him as their disciple.

This idea startled the two of them. Fuxi then firmly suppressed it. Although he didn't say it directly, his attitude was that he wanted Wu Chu to get as far away from him as possible and preferably not appear in front of him.

Nuwa also refused, saying, "However, your path differs from that of my siblings and me. Although my siblings and I are more advanced in cultivation than you..."

Wu Chu said, "It's not just higher, it's much higher, probably even higher than Mount Buzhou."

Nuwa smiled again, but still shook her head, saying, "That's true, but we don't really know how to teach other beings to cultivate. We ourselves are still searching for the answer."

In Wu Chu's view, this was a bit too modest.

After pondering for a moment, Wu Chu suddenly had a flash of inspiration and asked, "Since I have a trace of bloodline similar to yours, could you help me activate it?"

This request puzzled not only Nuwa but also Fuxi, though only Yibao in Wu Chu's mind exclaimed "Beautiful!"

"Your physical body is already the final manifestation of the Great Dao, so why do you still want to activate that wisp of bloodline?" Fuxi narrowed his eyes and looked at Wu Chu, feeling that Wu Chu's motives were impure.

Wu Chu naturally couldn't reveal his true situation; he only asked, "Will it work?"

Nuwa nodded and said, "It should be feasible, but the probability of failure is probably higher."

Wu Chu nodded and then asked, "If that bloodline can be successfully activated, will I also grow a snake tail like you two fellow Daoists?"

"What? You look down on my snake tail?"

Fuxi's lips curled slightly, a sly glint in his eyes.

Although Wu Chu didn't catch the hint of cunning in Fuxi's words, he could still sense the ill intent behind them. He thought to himself, "You big-eyed Fuxi, you're actually quite cunning! If I dared to show even a hint of disdain, wouldn't I offend three people in one go?"

Nuwa smiled and said, "It's likely that it will happen, but that depends on whether that bloodline can be successfully activated."

Even so, Wu Chu's heart gradually burned with excitement. If he could possess the same bloodline as Nuwa, wouldn't his origins be the same as theirs?

This... this is a chance to get a new foot!

After a pause, Nuwa continued, "What my brother said just now is quite true. Logically speaking, your form is already the ultimate form of the Great Dao Manifestation, so your cultivation should be faster than ours. Why then...?"

Upon hearing this, Wu Chu's lips twitched almost imperceptibly. Only he knew the true nature of his body; to put it nicely, it was an Innate Dao Body.

In reality, he was a time traveler, so how could his physical abilities compare to those of these Primordial World beings? Especially not the top beings of the Primordial World like Nuwa and Fuxi.

Only a fool would refuse the chance to have their bloodline replaced!

Wu Chu coughed lightly, looked at Fuxi, and said, "Fellow Daoist Fuxi, you misunderstand me. How could I look down on your snake tails? In fact, I've always thought your snake tails are quite beautiful and attractive. It would be my honor to have one."

Nuwa blinked her eyes upon hearing this, while Fuxi crossed his arms and gave him a 'hehe', letting him figure out the meaning for himself.

Wu Chu didn't argue with Fuxi, because it was pointless. The best way was to prove through actions how much he loved the snake's tail.

"Fellow Daoist Nuwa, then I'll leave it to you! What should I do?"

Wu Chu's serious expression surprised Fuxi, who finally frowned and asked, "Are you serious?"

"Of course!" Wu Chu nodded, then paused and asked, "Um, is there any way to increase the success rate of activating my bloodline? Or, do either of you have any cultivation techniques that can strengthen the wisp of bloodline within me?"

Nuwa and Fuxi silently shook their heads. Their bloodlines were pure, and they had no descendants or clans, so why would they need any cultivation techniques to purify their bloodlines?

Wu Chu thought for a moment and said, "Fine, let's do it this way! If it succeeds, that will be my good fortune; if it doesn't, the result won't be worse than it is now, right?"

Nuwa was deep in thought, Fuxi frowned.
