Just as he was about to test the Queen Mother of the West, something unexpected happened.
He suddenly realized that he could not take a step, as if he had no legs.
He frowned slightly and looked down, only to find that his legs had disappeared, and there was nothing below his knees.
And this trend continues to spread, affecting thighs, waist, abdomen, chest...
At this moment, he was like a pencil drawing on a blank sheet of paper, being erased bit by bit with an eraser.
"Am I going to disappear?"
A look of understanding flashed in Fang Xiu's eyes: "It's because I failed to stop the immortals and gods from turning into demons this time that history was changed. The immortals and gods were wiped out here, which greatly affected the course of history. There would be no present world or Kyushu, and naturally, there would be no me."
With this thought in mind, he committed suicide.
......
......
"Fellow immortals, there is no need for formalities. The Jade Emperor is preoccupied with important matters today and is unable to attend. Please take your seats."
"Thank you, Your Majesty," the gods said respectfully in unison, and then took their seats.
Looking at the familiar scene before him, Fang Xiu was slightly dazed. Sure enough, even if I travel through time, I can still die and rewind.
Death rollback is centered on my timeline; regardless of my current time period, it is based on my own time.
Since that's the case, I'll stop this conspiracy.
"Wait a minute." A calm voice interrupted the upcoming Peach Banquet.
Suddenly, Fang Xiu stood up from his seat.
His standing immediately attracted everyone's attention, because all the gods had just taken their seats as instructed by the Queen Mother of the West, and his standing up seemed very abrupt, especially since he was in the upper banquet area.
Facing the curious or disapproving gazes of the gods, he calmly said, "Before the Peach Banquet begins, I have a few words to say."
These words caused an uproar among many immortals and gods. The Queen Mother of the West, who was the host, had not yet spoken, so what did you, a guest, say?
"What do you want to say?" The Queen Mother of the West, seated at the head of the table, cast a glance at him, her tone calm, showing no anger at Fang Xiu's rudeness.
Fang Xiu was naturally not intimidated. Under the watchful eyes of all the immortals and gods, he casually picked up a peach from the table, his calm and deep gaze slowly sweeping over the gods, and said indifferently, "The peach is poisonous."
quiet!
The once bustling hall fell into an eerie silence for a second, as if everything had been put on pause.
A second later, countless voices of doubt arose.
"Where did this wild god come from, daring to spout such nonsense?"
"The peaches of immortality are divine gifts from heaven and earth, how could they possibly be poisonous?"
"Your Majesty, this person's origins are unknown. He claims to be a descendant of Nuwa, but in reality, he harbors ill intentions and intends to disrupt the Peach Banquet. We beg Your Majesty to order him to be driven away."
Li Jing, sitting next to Fang Xiu, was stunned, vaguely recalling the conversation between the two just now.
"A successor of Nuwa? Nuwa herself never attends the Peach Banquet. It's quite unexpected that she would send a successor to participate today."
"Don't rush, something even more unexpected will happen in a moment."
So... this is what they mean by "even more unexpected"? It certainly is quite unexpected.
"Quiet." The Queen Mother of the West's peaceful voice rang out again, and the gods slowly quieted down.
She looked at Fang Xiu, her beautiful eyes remaining completely unmoved: "Who are you? Why do you say the peaches are poisonous?"
"Fang Xiu, a descendant of Nuwa."
Fang Xiu directly invoked the banner of Nuwa.
The Queen Mother of the West remained unmoved: "Do you have any evidence?"
As soon as she finished speaking, a five-colored light instantly shone from Fang Xiu, illuminating the entire scene.
A magnificent light of life appeared, prompting the gods to exclaim in amazement: "This is indeed the power of the Goddess Nuwa."
"Could he really be a descendant of Nuwa?"
"Could it be that the peaches of immortality are poisonous because of the goddess Nuwa?"
In an instant, the winds shifted. The people who hadn't believed a word before now believed at least one word.
"Since you are a descendant of Nuwa, I will believe you for now. I ask you, you say the peaches of immortality are poisonous, but which one is poisonous?"
"all."
"all!?"
The gods were in uproar again, thinking that Fang Xiu was talking nonsense. How could all the peaches be poisonous?
Fang Xiu casually tossed the peach in his hand and said indifferently, "If you don't believe me, you'll know once you try."
The Queen Mother of the West nodded slightly, then looked at the gods: "Which immortal is willing to give it a try?"
"Your Majesty, I am willing to give it a try." A man with a bird-like face, a thunder god's mouth, and wings growing from his back slowly stepped forward.
It was the first thunder god to mutate.
Lei Gong looked at the peach in Fang Xiu's hand, a longing gleaming in his eyes. He had long coveted the peach, but unfortunately, its grade was too low, and he could only get one at most.
Now that he has this opportunity to eat an extra peach, how could he possibly let it pass?
As for Fang Xiu's claim that the peaches were poisonous, he didn't believe a word of it.
He sneered inwardly, "I've been eating peaches for so many years, do you think I don't know if they're poisonous or not?"
The Queen Mother of the West gazed at the Thunder God and said calmly, "Granted."
Lei Gong was overjoyed and quickly picked up a peach from the table next to him and stuffed it into his mouth. Seeing how he swallowed it whole, Fang Xiu finally understood why he was the first one to mutate.
After eating the peaches, Lei Gong's face showed a hint of lingering satisfaction, as if he hadn't had enough.
Under the watchful eyes of the gods, he bowed and said, "Your Majesty, I have not been poisoned."
The Queen Mother of the West nodded and looked at Fang Xiu with a scrutinizing gaze.
Fang Xiu's expression remained calm: "No rush, the poison will take effect in an hour."
"Alright, then we'll wait an hour. However, Fang Xiu, if Lei Gong is not poisoned after an hour, even if you are a descendant of Nuwa, I will punish you for disrupting the Peach Banquet."
Fang Xiu's eyes flickered slightly. He vaguely sensed something was wrong. Things seemed to be progressing too smoothly. He had suspected that the Queen Mother of the West had poisoned the peaches. After all, the Peach Banquet was hosted by the Queen Mother of the West, and the peaches belonged to her. Naturally, she was the most suspicious.
But the Queen Mother of the West seems to be cooperating too much now. Logically speaking, if it were really the Queen Mother of the West, she would definitely do everything she could to obstruct it, and even if she brought up Nuwa herself, she would not allow anyone to test the poison.
Could it be the Queen Mother of the West, or perhaps the maid who brought the peaches?
He glanced around at the maids present and found that they all looked normal, each one looking at him and Lei Gong with curiosity, as if waiting for the result in an hour.
Soon, an hour had passed.
Fang Xiu's premonition ultimately came true.
"Your Majesty, I have not detected any signs of poisoning," Lei Gong said respectfully, bowing with his hands clasped.
Upon hearing this, the atmosphere in the room noticeably became heavy, and hostile gazes focused on Fang Xiu, accompanied by waves of terrifying, abyssal pressure.
"Fang Xiu, do you have anything else to say?" The Queen Mother of the West's voice was no longer calm; her tone had become extremely cold.
Fang Xiu frowned slightly, ignoring the unfriendly gazes of the gods, and picked up the peach in his hand, taking a small bite.
