Liu Mang never in his wildest dreams expected to be beaten up because of someone else's child.

In his past life, he grew up in an orphanage and never experienced this kind of grievance. Today, he finally understood.

His backside was throbbing as if it would split in two, his back felt like it was on fire, and his legs trembled uncontrollably. All he wanted was to find a place to hide. Other than that, he felt nothing else.

All adults in the world were the same. Even if they became Saints, they would still compare their children to others.

At this moment, Liu Mang was hiding behind Hou Tu, fearfully looking at Nu Wa.

"Look at Xuan Du, then look at you. Do you have the demeanor of a Saint's child? Huh?!"

"Today, I'm going to teach you a lesson you won't forget."

As Nu Wa spoke and prepared to strike again, Hou Tu stepped forward to block her and, at the same time, sent Liu Mang over to Fu Xi.

"Sister Nu Wa, don't be angry! There are so many people here, give him some face."

Nu Wa let out a cold snort. This rebellious son actually gives me some face! If he gives me face, I'll naturally give him some too.

"Sister, next time you beat him, first activate the Dao of Creation. Even if you kill him, you can bring him back, and you won't have to worry about him getting hurt! See if he dares to make the same mistake again."

As soon as Hou Tu finished speaking, everyone around gasped.

Indeed, the most venomous hearts were those of women! With this idea, it would be difficult for Liu Mang to die, and he would have to endure the double torment of body and spirit.

Just imagining the scene of Nu Wa beating Liu Mang with the Dao of Creation made everyone tremble.

Only Nu Wa's eyes lit up. She looked at Liu Mang, a look of eagerness on her face.

"Why didn't I think of that?"

Although she had laid hands on Liu Mang before, she had never dared to go all out, fearing that she might accidentally damage his foundation and limit his future achievements.

Now, after hearing Hou Tu's suggestion, she could not only vent her anger but also provide a dual training for Liu Mang's body and Primordial Spirit.

"It seems I was truly blinded by anger! I didn't think of such a simple and effective method."

Looking at Liu Mang, who was trembling behind Fu Xi, Nu Wa let out a cold snort, "Come here!"

Upon hearing this, Liu Mang's body trembled, and he hid himself further behind Fu Xi.

[Don't see me! Don't see me! Confess and be treated leniently, stay in prison forever. Resist and be severely punished, go home for the New Year!]

Liu Mang silently recited these profound sayings from his past life in his heart until a voice sounded in his ear, "Where are you trying to hide?"

Liu Mang slowly looked up, meeting Nu Wa's playful gaze.

He didn't know when he had already appeared in front of Nu Wa.

Liu Mang glanced back at Fu Xi, only to find him looking away, holding the Eight Trigrams and muttering something unintelligible.

If it weren't for the fact that the hand holding the Eight Trigrams was trembling non-stop, Liu Mang would have truly believed that Fu Xi was unaware of his appearance before Nu Wa.

"Nephew, it's not that your uncle isn't helping you! It's better for one person to die than for two to perish in vain!"

Fu Xi ignored Liu Mang's questioning gaze, preparing to explain things to him properly after the situation had passed.

[If I'm going to die, I'm going to die. Whether it's sooner or later, I'll die anyway!]

Knowing that escape was impossible, Liu Mang decided to close his eyes and give up. After all, Nu Wa would definitely not kill him. At worst, he would wish he were dead.

After waiting for a long time with no sensation, he slightly opened his eyes, only to find Nu Wa passing by him and heading towards Hou Tu.

"Thank you, Sister Hou Tu, for your idea. I will definitely try it when I have the chance in the future."

"Thank you, sister, for helping me take care of these Human Race members."

"You're too kind, sister! Now that this matter is settled, we've been away from the tribe for a long time, and it's time for us to return."

"Please, sister."

Hou Tu nodded upon hearing this and looked at Di Jiang, saying, "Big Brother, it will be a bit of work for you."

Di Jiang didn't speak. He cupped his hands to everyone, and with a wave of his wide sleeves, the space where all the Human Race members were was separately peeled away.

"Everyone, we shall take our leave!" Di Jiang said, then turned to look at Hou Tu. Hou Tu formed a hand seal and gently patted the ground. The land where the Ancestor Witches and the humans were began to flow on its own, like a mobile flat elevator, instantly transporting everyone thousands of miles away.

Watching the Witch Tribe members depart, Liu Mang excitedly shouted.

"Everyone, uncles and elder brothers, walk slower! I'll come to the Witch Tribe to see you when I have time!"

Whether Di Jiang and the others heard Liu Mang's words was unknown, but in the next second, their departure speed clearly increased, and they vanished in the blink of an eye.

"Fine, leave if you want, but why run so fast? You didn't even invite me to play."

Liu Mang muttered softly, then turned and saw Nu Wa looking at him, immediately resuming his submissive demeanor.

Nu Wa rolled her eyes at Liu Mang and asked impatiently.

"The Human Race has been arranged, Xuan Du will follow Taishang Shibo for his cultivation, and I also need to leave Hong Huang. What are your plans?"

"I'll stay right here, not going anywhere."

As Liu Mang spoke, he ran to the platform where humans were created and sat down, not moving.

[Joke's on you, this platform is clearly a good thing, and I haven't gotten my hands on it yet~ I won't leave even if you beat me to death.]

The Human Race members present who heard Liu Mang say he wasn't leaving also became excited.

They already knew Xuan Du was the first Human, and Liu Mang was the second. However, they didn't include them in the Human Race's ranking. Instead, they called Xuan Du the First Ancestor and Liu Mang the Second Ancestor.

"Second Ancestor, are you really not leaving?"

"Second Ancestor, are you staying behind to keep us company?"

"Second Ancestor is truly a role model for our Human Race! We heard you chose to stay with us, abandoning the wonderful life in Wa Huang Palace."

"Thank you, Second Ancestor! Thank you, Second Ancestor!"

"Huh?!"

Liu Mang looked at the cheering Humans with a bewildered expression. When did I ever say I was staying for you?

I'm not, I didn't, don't spout nonsense!

But the words that came out were, "Of course! Who do you think the Second Ancestor is!"

Nu Wa watched Liu Mang hoist a rock only to drop it on his own foot, her face full of schadenfreude.

Serves you right for showing off and messing up.

However, after a moment's thought, she continued, "Are you sure you want to stay here alone? Won't you come with me beyond the Thirty-Three Heavens?"

As soon as Nu Wa finished speaking, before Liu Mang could reply, the voices of the Human Race sounded again.

"Second Ancestor, Holy Mother speaks wisely. Why don't you go? Come back after learning some skills from Mother."

"Yeah, Second Ancestor! You go! Only by learning skills can you live better."

Some Humans, worried that Liu Mang wouldn't leave, even resorted to taunts.

"Second Ancestor, you're not much use staying here. We'd have to protect you! Just go!"

"Exactly! Your legs aren't even as thick as my arms. Your chest muscles aren't even as big as my sister's. What use are you staying here?"

Liu Mang looked at the people pushing him away, a flicker of surprise in his eyes. His gaze gradually unfocused, and the faces around him began to overlap with memories from his past life.

"We don't care about your little bit of money!"

"Yeah, this much money isn't even enough for me to eat a steamed bun! You should keep it for yourself."

"If you don't have money, don't pretend to be a philanthropist and donate to the orphanage!"

"Who do you think you are! After you leave here, you're no longer one of us! Our business has nothing to do with you anymore."

Back then, another group of people, to avoid being a burden to him and to allow him to live a better life, had made him leave in the same way.

When Liu Mang came to his senses, two tear tracks had appeared on his face without him realizing it.

"Staying here... doesn't seem so bad!"
