The Heavenly Maiden Ba stared at Sheng Wanwan in disbelief until the light emanating from Sheng Wanwan faded and she returned to her original appearance. Only then did the Heavenly Maiden Ba come to her senses. She hugged Sheng Wanwan tightly.
“I don’t know how you did it, but I know you are Qin Yao,” Nüba said excitedly, tears glistening in her eyes.
Sheng Wanwan was held tightly by the Heavenly Maiden Ba, and she could feel the Heavenly Maiden Ba's excitement and deep affection. However, she herself was somewhat bewildered, and she had not yet fully understood or accepted all of this.
"Sister Tiannvba, I..." Sheng Wanwan wanted to say something, but Tiannvba gently covered her mouth.
"No need to say anything, I understand. Qin Yao, no, Wanwan, you are you. Whether you are Qin Yao or Sheng Wanwan, you are my good friend." Tiannvba said with a smile, her eyes full of tenderness.
Sheng Wanwan was completely bewildered by the Heavenly Maiden Ba. She still thought she was Sheng Wanwan, how could she possibly be Qin Yao? Her little head was a bit confused.
However, seeing the cheerful Tiannvba, she felt it was time to talk to her.
"Sister Tiannv Ba, no matter who I am or what this space is, one thing is certain: this space can isolate your demonic energy. Now, the places outside that you caused to suffer from drought are experiencing heavy rain, so your harm to the human world is gone, and you no longer need to beg for death!"
Sheng Wanwan said with a smile.
"Really? This space can really prevent my demonic energy from spreading? Is it really raining outside?"
The Heavenly Maiden Ba wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes and asked joyfully.
"Come on! I'll take you out to see the world!"
Sheng Wanwan didn't explain, and directly took Tiannvba's hand and left the space.
The joyful downpour outside suddenly stopped the moment the Heavenly Maiden Ba appeared.
The dark clouds in the sky dispersed as if flying away, and the sun scorched the earth once more.
The Heavenly Maiden Ba looked at the soil on the ground that hadn't yet dried, gently bent down, and grabbed a handful of it in her hand.
"Wanwan, please take me back! I believe you!"
Sheng Wanwan nodded with a smile, and the Heavenly Maiden Ba vanished in an instant. Sheng Wanwan looked at the clouds gathering again, her eyes crinkling with laughter.
When everyone saw the appearance of the Heavenly Maiden Ba, they finally believed what she had said.
This goddess had no intention of causing havoc on the world. She simply couldn't control her drought-prone constitution. She was forced to absorb the resentment of the world towards her, and this resentment uncontrollably caused her body to generate demonic energy. This demonic energy spread to more distant places, which led to even greater droughts in those areas.
This goddess is essentially in love with all people, but she is unable to control herself!
"Hey, Wanwan! Where did you send the drought demon?"
After witnessing Sheng Wanwan's abilities, the Immortal Venerable treated her with even greater respect than he did towards Sheng Wenjin.
"She went to a mysterious place, and she will no longer wreak havoc on the world!"
Grandfather Immortal, as you have seen, the calamities of the world today all stem from people's misunderstanding of the Heavenly Maiden Ba. If they hadn't resented the Heavenly Maiden Ba, she wouldn't have been forced to become a demon, and her demonic energy wouldn't have dissipated. Even if the Heavenly Maiden Ba remained in the world, the scope of her harm would be limited. As long as she went to the uninhabited areas, she wouldn't pose any threat to the world.
However, due to the misunderstanding of the world, the resentment towards her caused her demonic aura to increase day by day, which led to disasters in several countries.
"Grandpa Immortal, I think now is the time for your Penglai Immortal Sect to contribute to the world!"
Sheng Wanwan said in a serious tone.
"What can our Penglai Immortal Sect do? Please give us your instructions, Little Goddess. Our entire Penglai Immortal Sect will do everything in our power..."
"Reveal the truth and expose the true nature of the Heavenly Maiden Ba. She is a great goddess who deeply loves the world. She lost all her divine power while trying to help the world control the floods, which is why she fell to the mortal world."
Even though she suffered from misunderstanding and resentment for thousands of years, she never thought of taking revenge on the world. She was only seeking to end her own life and did not want to continue to harm the people.
But people regard her as a demon, constantly cursing and resenting her, which is unfair to the goddess!
Only by dispelling the world's misunderstandings about the goddess can the demonic energy surrounding the Heavenly Maiden Ba dissipate. Perhaps one day she can truly return to the divine realm and continue to protect all living beings!
Sheng Wanwan spoke very slowly.
After hearing Sheng Wanwan's words, the Immortal Venerable and the others nodded repeatedly.
Among them, the Second Elder stepped forward and said, "The Little Goddess is right! The Heavenly Maiden's injustice truly needs to be cleared! I am willing to lead our Penglai Immortal Sect to clarify the misunderstanding to the world and vindicate the Heavenly Maiden!"
The Immortal Venerable nodded solemnly, “This matter concerns all living beings. As the leader of the cultivation world, our Penglai Immortal Sect has the responsibility and obligation to complete this mission. Second Elder, you will personally take charge and convey the true story of the Heavenly Maiden and her spirit of sacrifice to every corner of the world, so that everyone can understand the truth and eliminate misunderstandings about the Heavenly Maiden Ba.”
The Second Elder bowed and accepted the order, "Yes, Immortal Venerable! I will certainly not fail in my mission, and will reveal the truth to the public and clear the name of the Heavenly Maiden Ba!"
Seeing this, Sheng Wanwan smiled and said, "Alright, Big Brother! Crown Prince, the matter is resolved satisfactorily, we can go home now!"
"good!"
"Um!"
Sheng Wenjin and Si Mingye looked at Sheng Wanwan and nodded.
Sheng Wenjin turned around and walked to the cultivators of Penglai Immortal Sect, bidding them farewell.
The sect leader and the other cultivators bowed deeply to Sheng Wenjin and Sheng Wanwan before seeing them off.
"These two siblings are undoubtedly the hope for the future rise of the immortal sects!"
The Immortal Venerable stroked his long beard and said.
"Sect Leader, where exactly did that little brat take the drought demon?" the Second Elder asked, frowning.
"I don't know. That child's supernatural abilities far surpass mine. No wonder she possesses a divine spiritual root. The secrets she holds are beyond my comprehension! However, the emergence of such a person in this world is truly a blessing!"
The Immortal Venerable sighed.
Upon hearing this, all the cultivators nodded in agreement...
Big White led the three south, and a week later they finally arrived at the northern border.
Because of the rain, the army of the Great Liang Kingdom has withdrawn from the border, and the border defense deployment has returned to the pre-war numbers. Although the Great Liang Kingdom is short of food, it is not starving; they can use the money to buy food from neighboring countries that have not been affected by the disaster.
However, the drought had spread to almost the entire territory of the Great Liang Kingdom, and they saw no hope, which is why they thought of attacking the Great Yan Kingdom.
After all, no amount of money can sustain a drought that seems to have no end...
A portion of the Great Yan army also withdrew to participate in the battle against Prince Rui, and the civil war within Great Yan had fully erupted. Marquis Wu'an led 80,000 border troops directly to Yongzhou City to join forces with the 50,000 Chu family troops led by Chu Qianhan.
Indeed, in just two months, Chu Qianhan swiftly and decisively subdued the Chu family army. At the same time, the Imperial Guards surrounded the Zhenguo General's Mansion...
