A quarter of an hour later, after chatting with the other Ancestral Witches, Hou Yi, and Xingtian, Quan Jiu supported his future wife as they flew toward the Yellow River.
Dijiang had said the wedding would be tomorrow. That being the case, the bride naturally had to stay with her own family today. Then, just as Dijun had personally gone to the Lunar Star to marry Xi He, Quan Jiu would set out from Mount Buzhou to fetch A Li from the banks of the Yellow River.
Watching them leave, Gungun thought, Quan Jiu, A Li... Jiuli. Who would have thought Chi You's ancestor would actually be Quan Jiu!
"Chi You?" Standing beside Gungun, Houtu heard the fat bear's thoughts and suddenly recalled something. She said, "Gungun, Quan Jiu is a Great Shaman of our Witch Race, but his wife is a human. Their child is bound to be different from ordinary Witches. You just said that child would have a primordial spirit, too. So do you think he can still count as a Witch?"
"Yes. His father is a Witch, so naturally, he's a Witch too," Gungun replied.
"But I've heard that women hold precedence among the Human Race. By their customs, since his mother is human, he would naturally be human too," Houtu said.
"Uh... each side can reckon it their own way. He can be both a Witch and a human." Hearing that, Gungun scratched his head and offered a suggestion.
"Heh, in that case, why not call them the Witch-Human Race-the shared descendants of the Witch Race and the Human Race?" Houtu looked down at Gungun and spoke with a smile.
"An excellent idea! Your wisdom is truly unmatched, Ancestral Witch!" Gungun had still been considering how to safely put forward that suggestion, only for Houtu
