At this moment, Hong Ze was sitting steadily on the donkey, leisurely making his way forward.

However, the donkey's speed was not slow; it was even comparable to Master Tongtian's mount, the Kui Cow.

If the Kui Cow wasn't being ridden by Master Tongtian, it probably couldn't compare to Hong Ze's donkey.

After all, the Kui Cow's cultivation was only at the Taiyi Golden Immortal realm, while the donkey's cultivation had already reached the peak of the Great Luo Golden Immortal realm.

Although Wu Dang Mother didn't have a mount, her escape technique was exceptionally fast, so she wasn't left behind by Hong Ze.

The two of them traveled like this, one sitting on a donkey, the other stepping on auspicious clouds, making their way forward through the mist.

"Eldest Senior Brother, at our speed, we can reach the Hua Xu Tribe in at most three days."

Hong Ze looked down and saw that below them was a vast ocean.

This made Hong Ze frown slightly and then he said, "Why do I keep feeling like something isn't quite right? We didn't take the wrong path, did we?"

Since becoming a disciple of Master Tongtian, Hong Ze had been staying in the back mountain of Golden Turtle Island.

Not to mention traveling in the Primordial World, he rarely even went to the front mountain of Golden Turtle Island.

Now that they were heading to the Hua Xu Tribe, Wu Dang Mother naturally led the way.

It was just a pity that Wu Dang Mother had never been to the Hua Xu Tribe either; she was just traveling in the general direction.

Now, hearing Hong Ze suspect she had taken the wrong path, a hint of worry couldn't help but arise in her heart.

She immediately put her hand into her sleeve and began to divine, wanting to find the exact location of the Hua Xu Tribe.

Soon, an awkward expression appeared on Wu Dang Mother's face, and she spoke to Hong Ze with guilt.

"Uh, Eldest Senior Brother, I was in a hurry when we left just now, and I accidentally got the direction wrong.

We are currently heading north, not towards the Hua Xu Tribe.

But don't worry, Eldest Senior Brother, if we turn back now, it will only waste at most half a day."

Hong Ze looked disbelieving, reached out, and gave Wu Dang Mother a light but firm tap on the head.

"How can you be so muddled at a crucial moment, girl? If I ask you to do something important in the future and you get lost, won't that delay the important matter?"

Wu Dang Mother pouted at Hong Ze, "Then why didn't you go yourself, Eldest Senior Brother, and instead made me, your junior sister, lead the way for you?

If I, your junior sister, remember correctly, Eldest Senior Brother should be from the Human Race. How could you not remember how to get back to your old home?"

Being retorted by Wu Dang Mother, Hong Ze was speechless for a moment.

After a long while, he glared at Wu Dang Mother and said, "Although I, your senior brother, am from the Human Race, I am one of the first batch of Innate Human Race.

Nüwa Niangniang created us at the foot of Mount Buzhou, and not long after, I was taken to Golden Turtle Island by Master.

Now, the Postnatal Human Race has migrated countless times. Do you think I should know where they live now?"

Wu Dang Mother chuckled after hearing this, "Eldest Senior Brother, I almost forgot if you didn't mention it. Eldest Senior Brother is a young lady who rarely leaves the house."

"Nonsense, what young lady? At most, I'm just a homebody."

Hong Ze and Wu Dang Mother bickered as they walked, which made the donkey Hong Ze was sitting on extremely awkward.

"You two really realized you took the wrong path? Since you realized it, why didn't you turn back quickly and instead kept going forward?"

At this moment, the Donkey wished he could just open his mouth and complain, giving his stupid master a good scolding.

It was a pity the Donkey held back. He didn't want to expose his cultivation in front of Hong Ze.

Otherwise, if Hong Ze forced him to take human form, he wouldn't be able to be Hong Ze's mount anymore.

Even so, the Donkey was still preparing to change his approach to remind his stupid master.

The Donkey's tail flicked upwards, gently brushing Hong Ze's back.

Then, he didn't forget to let out two donkey brays and turned his head towards the direction of the Hua Xu Tribe.

The Donkey's efforts were not in vain; they finally made Hong Ze realize he was still heading north.

He immediately pulled the Donkey to a stop and said to Wu Dang Mother beside him,

"You girl, you clearly knew we took the wrong path, so why did you keep going down this road?"

Wu Dang Mother was only focused on bickering with Hong Ze because she found it very enjoyable, even feeling a hint of pleasure.

At this moment, Wu Dang Mother even wished time could stop, allowing her to walk with Hong Ze like this forever.

Hong Ze's words pulled her back to reality, but a hint of shyness appeared in her expression as she looked at Hong Ze.

Hong Ze didn't think in any other direction; he just thought he had made Wu Dang Mother feel embarrassed.

He quickly said, "It's okay, we have plenty of time. It's not too late to go back now."

Seeing such a considerate Hong Ze, Wu Dang Mother instantly felt a wave of warmth.

She didn't say anything more, walked forward directly, took hold of Hong Ze's Donkey, and prepared to turn back towards the Hua Xu Tribe.

But before the two could turn around, they saw a sudden surge of turbulent waves ahead.

It turned out that without realizing it, the two had arrived above the North Sea and were discovered by the patrolling demon race.

As turbulent waves surged in the North Sea, a team of the demon race had already charged out from the depths.

And with well-trained precision, they formed a battle formation in front of Hong Ze and Wu Dang Mother, ready for combat.

The demon race and the witch race had been at war for countless eons, which had given both races extremely strong combat experience.

Even though time had passed and The Great Lich Tribulation was tens of thousands of years in the past, the demon race of the North Sea remained as formidable as ever.

At the same time, a demon with a single horn on its head stepped forward, holding a steel fork.

"Who are you, riding on a cloud ahead? Why are you trespassing in the North Sea?"

Upon learning that he had reached the North Sea, Hong Ze suddenly remembered something.

For Fuxi to successfully attain the position of Human Race Heavenly Emperor, the assistance of the Hetu Luoshu was naturally indispensable.

If he remembered correctly, according to the settings in later Primordial World novels, the Hetu Luoshu was in the hands of the Demon Master Kunpeng.

Although Hong Ze wasn't sure if the settings in those Primordial World novels were reliable, since he was here, he had to meet the Demon Master Kunpeng.

He then whispered to Wu Dang Mother, "It seems everything is destined. It's destined that we should come and meet this Demon Master Kunpeng."

He should have the Innate Spiritual Treasure Hetu Luoshu in his hands. That is key to whether Fuxi can become the Heavenly Emperor.

As long as we can get the Hetu Luoshu, even if Fuxi joins our Jie Sect, others won't be able to snatch him away."

Hearing Hong Ze say this, Holy Mother Gui Ling immediately nodded.

Then she spoke to the one-horned demon race member, "I am Wu Dang Mother of the Jie Sect, accompanying Eldest Senior Brother Hong Ze. We have something to discuss with the Demon Master."

Hearing that the other party was a Jie Sect disciple, and moreover, two direct disciples of the Jie Sect.

The heroic and domineering expression on the one-horned demon race member's face instantly subsided.

"Please wait a moment, two Celestial Immortals. I will go to the Demon Master Palace to report to Lord Demon Master."

After speaking, he conjured a demonic wind and plunged directly into the North Sea.

However, the demon race members he brought did not retreat and still watched Hong Ze and Wu Dang Mother with fierce eyes.
