Nuwa looked at Yuan Heng with a beaming smile. “Junior Sister, would you like to go to my Dao field?”
Yuan Heng gently shook her head. “No, Senior Sister. I need to send these two little fellows back to Teacher, and then return to Fangzhang Island.”
She scratched her head. “I've stayed in Purple Heaven Palace for so long; it's about time I went home to take a look.”
Seeing this, Nuwa showed her understanding and nodded. “Alright. In that case, Junior Sister Yuan Heng, I shall head back first.”
Yuan Heng nodded. “Great! I wish Senior Sister an early attainment of Sainthood!”
She had always believed that her senior brothers and sisters were all smart cookies; Her Ladyship would figure out how to create humans on her own.
Nuwa looked at Yuan Heng's delicate little face, then at the two young attendants beside her, smiling warmly. “Then I shall accept your auspicious words, Junior Sister.”
Junior Sister is truly adorable. It's just a pity that in the entire Primordial World, wonderful people like myself and my little junior sister are far too few.
Nuwa cast a fleeting glance at Fuxi beside her, who looked slightly guilty, and then withdrew her gaze in exasperation at his failure to live up to expectations.
Most people in the Primordial World were like her elder brother—lacking in consideration and warmth.
If there were more graceful and elegant people of ethereal temperament like herself and her junior sister in the Primordial World... she couldn't imagine how harmonious the Primordial World would be~
Wait... why didn't she create a race modeled exactly after her and her junior sister's appearance?
They would be born in the shape of the Dao body, and they would be completely new—something that had never existed in the Primordial World before...
The moment this thought arose, the Grand Purple Qi within Nuwa's body began to stir restlessly.
Nuwa's eyes instantly lit up. A wide smile spread across her face, and she gave Yuan Heng a big, tight hug.
“Junior Sister! Thank you, I've got it now!!”
Yuan Heng: ???
Filled with utter bewilderment, she stared at Nuwa's departing figure and fell into deep thought. No, wait, Senior Sister, what exactly did you 'get' this time?
Fuxi hurriedly bid farewell to everyone and rushed to catch up with her.
Leaving behind a group of completely baffled onlookers.
Yuan Heng raised a hand to scratch her head, turning to the Three Pure Ones beside her in confusion. “Senior Brothers, did I just say something?”
The Three Pure Ones: “...”
Seeing Junior Sister Nuwa's air of sudden enlightenment, Tongtian said somewhat uncertainly, “Probably not...”
Taiqing and Yuanshi exchanged a look. It seemed that Junior Sister Nuwa's Dao of Creation was about to reach completion...
Senior Brothers Jieyin and Zhunti were busy seeking their own opportunities. Having eaten and drunk their fill, they packed up the leftovers of the feast and departed.
After bidding farewell to her senior brothers of the Three Pure Ones, Yuan Heng turned to ask Haotian and Yaochi beside her, “Are you two heading back?”
The two little ones hesitated for a moment, then nodded. “Little Senior Sister, we must return to attend to Master.”
They still had chores to do in Purple Heaven Palace.
Yuan Heng nodded in understanding. “Alright. I was originally planning to take you to my island to play for a while.”
Yuan Heng bowed toward the distant sky. “Troubling Master to bring them back.”
“Very well.”
Hongjun's voice echoed from far above the dome of heaven. In the next instant, the two little ones beside Yuan Heng vanished.
Yuan Heng inwardly praised her master's efficiency, then flew toward the East Sea without looking back.
Heading home~
After flying for a few months, Yuan Heng finally arrived home.
“Ling Nü, Susu, your Daojun is back~”
Her face was beaming with joy. Hearing her voice, the two little ones rushed out to meet her, sprinting toward her.
“Daojun!”
Ling Nü and Susu each grabbed one of Yuan Heng's legs, looking up at her with their small faces. “You're back! We missed you so much~”
Yuan Heng reached out and rubbed their heads. “Hehe, I missed you too.”
“See? The moment the banquet at the Demon Court ended, I rushed straight back.”
Yuan Heng casually released her spiritual treasures to let them fly around freely, then led the two little ones into the palace hall, holding one of their hands in each of hers.
“While I was away, did anything happen on the island?”
The two little ones' voices were soft and bright. “Nothing really unusual.”
“It's just that many little spirits on the island have taken form. They said they received Daojun's protection and wanted to come express their gratitude.”
“Ah... there's no need for that. Tell them to just focus on their cultivation...”
The voices of the three grew softer, gradually carried away by the wind sweeping over the sea of flowers.
Once she had settled Ling Nü and Susu, Yuan Heng went back to her bedroom to sleep.
She lay spread-eagled on her bed, staring at the glittering golden ceiling as her eyelids grew heavier and heavier.
Hmm... Yuan Heng reasonably suspected that her eyes were being bedazzled by the shine.
Before the thought could even solidify, she had already closed her eyes, slowly drifting off into dreamland.
Nothing in the world should ever get in the way of sweet dreams and peaceful sleep...
Who knows how much time passed, but Yuan Heng was eventually awakened by the resonating sound of the Great Dao.
“Heavenly Dao above! I, Nuwa, acting in accordance with Heaven to fill the void of the Primordial World... do hereby shape bodies from the Nine-Heavens Soil and bestow spirits through creation to bring forth a race named Humans!
The Human Race shall complete one of the three cosmic forces of Heaven, Earth, and Man, enjoying the protection of the Heavenly Dao to thrive and multiply for generations without end! May the Heavenly Dao bear witness!”
After a moment, Nuwa's voice continued to resonate, as if she had received some directive.
“...I, Nuwa, have today attained the Dao through merit, achieving the supreme Hunyuan Fruit stage! Three thousand years from now, I shall open a Dao field beyond the Thirty-Three Heavens of Chaos to lecture on the Grand Dao of Creation. Anyone destined is welcome to come and listen...”
Yuan Heng: !!!
Ahhh, Her Ladyship successfully created our ancestors!
Eh? But why was a strand of merit bestowed upon me as well?
Oh well, it doesn't matter... I'm going to the front row to watch!
Yuan Heng jumped up with lightning speed. Stepping outside the palace hall, she saw that half of the Primordial World was already illuminated by the auspicious phenomena of Goddess Nuwa's ascension to the Saint realm.
In high spirits, she gathered her magical treasures, called out a quick word to Ling Nü and Susu, and transformed into a streak of light, rushing toward Mount Buzhou.
Hehe~
Ancestors, here I come!
Yuan Heng traveled with gale-like speed. By the time she arrived, Senior Sister Nuwa had not yet departed.
The 129,600 humans she had created were still on the ground, blinking their clear, innocent eyes, their gazes filled with absolute reliance on their Holy Mother.
Most importantly, the ancestors were still completely bare-bottomed.
Ahem...
Yuan Heng somewhat awkwardly raised a hand to cover her eyes. Intentionally ignoring her somewhat tender and clueless ancestors below, she bypassed them to approach Nuwa. “Senior Sister Nuwa!”
She cupped her hands and bowed. “Congratulations on becoming a Sage, Senior Sister!”
Seeing her arrive, Nuwa looked at her as if she had found a savior. “This is wonderful, Junior Sister! You've come!”
Yuan Heng looked completely blank, blinking in confusion. “Huh??”
