I Am Willing to Enter the Mortal World. Will You Accompany Me?

The two women chatted here without restraint; who would dare eavesdrop on them?

Nuwa merely chuckled, however, and said nothing more.

Nuwa looked up at the auspicious clouds stretching ten thousand li above Kunlun.

For some reason, the figure of a young man suddenly appeared before her eyes again.

That young man was none other than the current Human Emperor.

The poem the little fellow had composed was still in Nuwa Palace to this day.

The thought of that poem annoyed Nuwa.

If only she could move with all her allure, I would bring her back to Changle Palace to serve the king-

That fellow really had the gall to reach for the heavens. He had actually thought of making her serve him.

Although Saint Zhunti had clouded his mind,

Zhunti had only given him a slight nudge. That fellow had still spoken those words himself, and they had come from the bottom of his heart.

Not only that, the fellow had been respectful to her on the surface.

He had even deliberately drawn close to her, calling her "sister" at every turn. There was no telling how affectionate he had seemed.

In truth, behind her back, he had cursed her as a stupid woman.

He had also secretly looked down on her intelligence as a sage-

Perhaps that fellow had already cursed her hundreds of times in his heart.

Thinking of the Human Emperor's brazen expression and his mockery of her, Nuwa grew irritated.

She wanted nothing more than to tear that fellow's foul mouth apart.

Then she remembered how that fellow had prepared to be a dog and lick her.

A wave of revulsion swept over Nuwa.

She truly had not expected the current Human Emperor to be such a disgusting fellow.

Nuwa shook her head vigorously, driving that revolting figure from her mind.

Only then did she notice the Queen Mother of the West looking at her with the hint of a smile.

Nuwa let out a long sigh.

"Holy Mother, the Great Tribulation of the Investiture of the Gods is at hand. What do you make of it? I fear the future is worrying-"

"Zhunti and Jieyin of the West have tricked me time and again, snatching my fortune, stealing my merit, and scheming to drag me into the tribulation. I hate them for it."

"If the Human Emperor hadn't warned me, I'm afraid I would still be kept in the dark."

"The Three Pure Ones are no good either. They forcibly seized the Human Clan's fortune from my hands."

"I still remember all of that."

"Now that the Great Tribulation of the Investiture of the Gods is at hand, I want to venture into the mortal world and see what this worldly red dust is like, and what the Great Tribulation of the Investiture of the Gods can do to me. Sister, would you be willing to accompany me?"

Hearing this, the Queen Mother of the West was struck dumb.

Empress Nuwa had grievances in her heart and could no longer sit still. Was she preparing to enter the tribulation?

Did she even want to exchange blows with those stinking old men?

At the thought, the Queen Mother of the West felt her scalp go numb.

"Little sister, you must think three times before you act."

"This is, after all, a great tribulation sweeping across the entire Primordial World. We can't avoid it even if we try, so why are you thinking of entering it of your own accord?"

"If you enter the fray, you'll inevitably clash with the other sages. When that happens, it will be no small matter. It won't be like your little scuffle with Zhunti."

Nuwa smiled at the Queen Mother of the West's warning, enchanting all living beings.

"My heart points the way, and my body follows. If I want to go, I'll go. Surely I can't let those old fellows keep tricking me forever?"

"Otherwise, that grievance will remain in my heart, and before long it will turn into a heart demon-"

"The main reason I came to Kunlun was to ask whether you would be willing to venture into it with me, sister."

"That way, we can also let those old fellows know that they don't have the final say in the Primordial World."

Hearing this, the Queen Mother of the West gradually grew solemn.

"Since you intend to enter the tribulation and plunge into the chaos, does that one know?"

As she spoke, the Queen Mother of the West cautiously pointed at the heavens, seemingly alluding to something.

Nuwa, too, raised her head and glanced into the distance.

An unusual light appeared in her eyes.

"That one probably doesn't know yet, but he will find out later."

"There's no need to bother with him for now. He has already become one with the Dao and won't interfere without cause. Besides, he's been partial in his dealings, and I haven't even gone to have it out with him yet."

Hearing Nuwa's words, the Queen Mother of the West could not help clicking her tongue inwardly.

It seemed Nuwa was truly determined to enter the mortal world.

"Are you really going to lock horns with those fellows?"

"I'm afraid you're no match for them. Even with Tongtian on your side, the two of you would probably struggle to accomplish much. At your level, even the slightest clash is dangerous, let alone when there are four sages on the other side."

Nuwa glanced at her.

"As the saying goes, success depends on people, while planning rests with heaven. How can I know if I don't try?"

"Do you expect me, Nuwa, to sit and wait for those old fellows to trick me again?"

"Even the Dragon Clan has now sought refuge with the Human Clan. What else could be impossible?"

"The great tribulation is about to begin, and strange phenomena keep appearing throughout heaven and earth. Even the Ancestral Dragon's corpse has appeared in the Primordial World."

"Even I must make plans early. If you're willing to lend me a hand, your merit will naturally be boundless."

At those words, a host of inscrutable emotions flickered in the Queen Mother of the West's eyes.

She naturally understood perfectly why Nuwa had come.

To put it nicely, Nuwa was inviting her to come out of seclusion.

To put it less nicely, Nuwa was asking her to throw in her lot with her.

What should she do?

Should she really venture into the mortal world? Or should she refuse Nuwa and sour their relationship?

The Queen Mother of the West sank into deep thought.

After a long while, a fierce look entered the Queen Mother of the West's eyes, and she finally spoke.

"What help could I possibly be?"

"At your level, you can wipe out all the laws of the world with a wave of your hand. All things in the world are ants in your eyes, and this ant hasn't lived long enough yet. Whatever you do, don't trick me-"

"But if it's only a matter of accompanying you into the mortal world, then I, your elder sister, am willing to risk being cut to pieces. Why not go with you? Just don't trick me."

Hearing this, Nuwa smiled even more broadly.

She raised her head and gazed at the distant sky, her eyes a deep blue.

Her eyes were filled with joy.

She thanked her and vanished.

The Queen Mother of the West looked in the direction Nuwa had disappeared and could not help sighing.

As one of Nuwa's few close friends, she had long known about some of Nuwa's affairs, and she also knew Nuwa had grievances in her heart. She had thought Nuwa had come this time to pour out her troubles.

She had not expected Nuwa to have stopped putting up with it.

But indeed-

The other sages really had gone a little too far.

Nuwa was, after all, the only female sage in all the Primordial World.

They should have taken extra care of her, yet what had they done?

Not only had Taishang intercepted the Human Clan's fortune that had originally belonged to Nuwa,

the Two Sages of the West had also stolen much of Nuwa's merit.

Now those fellows even wanted to trick Nuwa into entering the tribulation and make her take the blame for them.

That really was a little shameless. They had even abandoned the dignity of sages.

No wonder Nuwa had come to her door. Nuwa was building a force of her own, preparing to enter the tribulation and contend for the world.

In that case, she would join Nuwa in making a stir.

Life had indeed been too dull lately. She might as well take this opportunity to enter the mortal world. Why not?

In the Primordial World today, people knew only the Queen Mother of the West, but no longer knew her as the Western Queen Mother.

At that thought, she laughed at herself again.

At the same time, she had also sensed that Nuwa was becoming ever more unfathomable.

Since Nuwa had decided to enter the mortal world, she naturally had to make proper preparations as well.
