Humans Were Molded from Clay by Someone Called Nuwa?

Spirit Hall had already begun putting up festive decorations when Qian Renxue awoke.

Now that Qian Renxue had become a god, the celebrations immediately grew even grander.

All of Spirit Hall brimmed with joy.

"My granddaughter has become a god! Hahaha! And a god of the Primordial World, at that!"

Qian Daoliu was beside himself with excitement. Having boarded the great ship that was the Heavenly Court, they would never need to worry, provided nothing went seriously wrong.

His only concern was how little they knew about Flower-Fruit Mountain. He feared Qian Renxue would stumble into a pitfall.

"With Xue'er's intelligence, she should be able to handle it."

Qian Daoliu comforted himself. All he could do now was trust Qian Renxue.

"Oh, you! I kept signaling you with my eyes, but you wouldn't look. I really can't keep you in line anymore."

Once they left Jianyang City, Earth Granny began scolding her.

Qian Renxue quickly offered an apologetic smile and went over to link arms with Earth Granny.

"Granny, I know you mean well, but I want to take a chance. Please don't be angry anymore."

"But I'm worried you'll lose your life sooner or later at this rate."

"Don't I still have you, Granny? I'll be counting on you to explain the situation at Flower-Fruit Mountain."

Qian Renxue rested her head on Earth Granny's shoulder, wheedling.

Seeing this, Earth Granny's anger mostly faded.

"Fine, fine. It's already settled. There's no changing it now."

"Flower-Fruit Mountain truly isn't a good place to go. Once I tell you what's happening there, you'll know to regret it."

Unable to bear letting Qian Renxue throw her life away, Earth Granny began analyzing the situation at Flower-Fruit Mountain for her on their way back.

The people on the Douluo Continent also listened intently. They had a feeling that Flower-Fruit Mountain was anything but simple.

"Flower-Fruit Mountain is a lovely place of clear waters and verdant mountains. It is where the dragon vein of the Eastern Continent of Superior Body lies, where creation gathers its divine beauty, and spiritual qi abounds."

Qian Renxue's impression of Flower-Fruit Mountain improved immensely at these words, but she also knew things would not be so simple.

Sure enough, Earth Granny changed tack.

"But several hundred years ago, an extraordinary figure emerged from Flower-Fruit Mountain. He called himself the Handsome Monkey King, and the Great Heavenly Venerable personally bestowed upon him the title of Great Sage Equal to Heaven, an office of Transcendent Rank."

"The Handsome Monkey King? Great Sage Equal to Heaven, an office of Transcendent Rank? He's a monkey?"

Questions instantly filled Qian Renxue's mind.

Equal to Heaven-the more deeply Qian Renxue understood the Primordial World, the more she realized that this was not a title just anyone could claim.

"That's right, but he isn't an ordinary monkey. He was born of heaven and nurtured by earth. Rumor has it that he came from a divine stone left over when the Great God Nuwa mended the heavens. She casually placed it atop Flower-Fruit Mountain, and after being nourished by the dragon vein, it gave birth to him."

"His birth was accompanied by extraordinary phenomena in heaven and earth. Later, he found a master, learned genuine skills, and went to heaven to serve as an official."

Qian Renxue was utterly dumbfounded.

The Great God Nuwa had mended the heavens? A leftover stone placed on a mountaintop had produced a monkey who then went to heaven to become an official?

The good news was that she had unlocked a new figure, an extraordinary one at that. The bad news was...

Qian Renxue looked up at the sky. She truly did not know how to describe her feelings.

"Nuwa... mended the heavens..."

Seeing that Qian Renxue did not understand, Earth Granny explained:

"The Great God Nuwa is the Holy Mother of Humanity. In ancient times, there was no human race in the Primordial World. The Great God Nuwa used Three Lights Divine Water and Xirang to mold three thousand members of the Innate Human Race. Thus humanity was born. The roots of humanity throughout the Myriad Heavens and Realms all trace back to this."

"The Great God Nuwa is humanity's mother. Anyone who is human must respectfully address the Great God Nuwa as Holy Mother."

Boom~

Qian Renxue was stunned, and so was everyone on the Douluo Continent.

"Humans were actually molded from clay by a great god whose power reached the heavens?"

"Are you kidding? That isn't funny at all."

"So that's how it was. To think that this was humanity's origin."

"Why didn't the Great God Nuwa make me better-looking?"

"In your dreams! Didn't you hear Earth Granny? The Great God Nuwa only molded three thousand members of the Innate Human Race. We must belong to the Acquired Human Race."

Across the entire Douluo Continent, there had never been such heated discussion since the broadcast began.

They had only wanted to see what was special about Flower-Fruit Mountain, never expecting to hear something so important.

"Humans were actually created by a great god whose power reached the heavens?"

At the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect, Ning Fengzhi felt as though something had gone wrong with his entire understanding of the world.

This information truly overturned his whole outlook on life.

"The waters of the Primordial World run far too deep. How powerful must an existence like the Great God Nuwa be? How laughable that I once thought Tai Tan could sweep through the Primordial World."

Sword Douluo and Bone Douluo were also speechless.

Earth Granny had made it perfectly clear: as long as you were human, your roots lay there, and you had to address Nuwa as Holy Mother.

Based on what they currently knew about the Primordial World, this was very likely true.

The Clear Sky Sect.

The elders who had been clamoring all along also fell silent. They feared neither heaven nor earth, but now a Holy Mother had suddenly appeared above their heads. How they felt was easy to imagine.

More importantly, they could not refute it. Otherwise, wouldn't they be unfilial children? Or would they deny that they were human?

At Shrek Academy, everyone's expressions were even more varied.

Yu Xiaogang repeatedly opened his mouth, only to stop. Looking at the blank stares around him, he felt he could no longer remain silent.

Now was his chance to make a name for himself.

"I don't believe it. This Earth Granny is only a minor deity with limited horizons. Our Douluo Continent has already left the Primordial World. How could the humans Nuwa created have come here?"

Sure enough, just as Yu Xiaogang had expected, everyone turned to look at him.

Flender even nodded somewhat hesitantly.

"Actually, Xiaogang, you do seem to have a point. How could people from the Primordial World have reached our Douluo Continent?"

"But there might be more to it than we know."

Flender added that last remark to cover himself. In truth, he believed Earth Granny more.

Otherwise, where would you say humans came from?

"Then show me the evidence."

Yu Xiaogang stiffened his neck.

"Won't we find out if we keep watching? We'll get the answer someday."

Zhao Wuji shot Yu Xiaogang an irritated glance. You're the only smart one, and everyone else is an idiot? Stop being human, then, if you've got the guts.

Spirit Hall.

"I propose that we erect a statue of Holy Mother Nuwa in Spirit City and pay homage to the Holy Mother of Humanity every year from now on!"

Qian Daoliu believed it without a shred of doubt, following closely in his granddaughter's footsteps.

"I agree."

Bibi Dong also nodded in agreement. Her heart had already flown to the Primordial World.

Besides, paying homage to a Holy Mother was no bad thing. What if the Holy Mother really saw it?

The Star Dou Great Forest.

"Humans were molded from clay! Hahaha! That's killing me!"

Xiong Jun clutched his belly and roared with laughter, then forcibly swallowed it when he saw the looks in the Silver Dragon King's and Di Tian's eyes.

"The Great God Nuwa shouldn't have any authority over us soul beasts, right?"

No one answered his question, and Xiong Jun grew a little frightened.

"I was wrong! Great God, spare my life!"

Xiong Jun stuck his rear into the air and kowtowed without the slightest hesitation.

Di Tian spoke in a low voice.

"My lord, what do you think of that Handsome Monkey King Earth Granny mentioned? If a monkey can serve as an official in the Heavenly Court, could we do the same?"

"Keep watching."

The Silver Dragon King discreetly rolled her eyes.

Was that a monkey? Could an ordinary monkey spring out of a stone?

I wonder if the Great God Nuwa could mold a divine position for me.
