Chapter 173 Lost Soul
Pei Duyan nodded and said:
"That's understandable. If someone suddenly appeared and told me she was Nuwa, I wouldn't believe it either."
He seemed to suddenly think of something, blinked and asked:
"Why do you say you are Nuwa?"
"Have you already known that the people here believe in Nuwa?"
Feng Tianning glanced at him and said hesitantly:
"You really want to know?"
Pei Duyan nodded in confusion, motioning her to continue.
"Because I am Nuwa." Feng Tianning said word by word.
Pei Du said: ...
He asked this question unnecessarily. No wonder Director Cai and Captain Liu said before leaving the special case team that Feng Tianning was not very sincere and always told perfunctory lies to fool them.
Now I see that it is indeed the case.
Pei Duyan silently took a step back, moving a little further away from Feng Tianning.
Feng Tianning also noticed his actions and felt speechless.
She is Nuwa, the creator goddess, and the law of the world. Why should she bother explaining her identity to others?
Pei Duyan also fell silent. After a long while, he tentatively asked:
"Could the immortals Emperor Cang Xuan mentioned be the other detectives from the special case team?"
Feng Tianning nodded:
"Most likely them."
"I think they should be back by now."
"Strange." Pei Duyan murmured.
"They left the ancient tomb less than two hours ago, so how come they only arrived a few days ago?"
Feng Tianning also realized that something was wrong and frowned:
"Since ancient times, there has been a saying that one day in heaven equals one year on earth. Perhaps the flow of time in Fangcun Realm is different from that in the outside world."
As soon as Feng Tianning finished speaking, he saw several figures appear downstairs of Zhaixing Tower, and even Emperor Cangxuan, who had already left, turned back.
Soon, they reached the top floor of the Star-Picking Tower.
Feng Tianning looked closely and saw that it was Fu Ruxuan and the other two walking in front of Emperor Cang Xuan.
They were also surprised for a moment when they saw Feng Tianning, but they quickly accepted it. After all, she has always been very powerful, so it is not surprising that she appears here.
"My lords, this is Nuwa and Master Shennong."
When she heard these two names, Fu Ruxuan tried her best to suppress the upward curve of her lips, and silently gave them a thumbs up in her heart.
They were clearly chatting one second ago, and suddenly appeared here the next second.
Fortunately, when they first entered this hellish place, they fell from the sky and landed in the bedroom of the Emperor of Da Cang Kingdom.
For a moment, everyone thought that these people in strange costumes were immortals from heaven. Coupled with the talismans they prepared, the people here completely believed that they were immortals.
But they only dared to say that they were minor immortals. Xuan Gou Chen's ancestor was Teng Snake, so they said that they were Teng Snake who had come down to earth.
When Fu Ruxuan went to Fengmen Village with Feng Tianning, she saw the image of a Qilin in the pool, so she claimed to be a Qilin.
As for Qin Guan... he didn't have any official position, so they said he was Marshal Tianpeng.
Fortunately, the mythological system of the Da Cang Kingdom is similar to that of the outside world. In addition, with what they have done in recent days, the people's doubts about them are getting smaller and smaller, and their reputation as immortals is getting bigger and bigger.
But they didn't expect that Feng Tianning and Pei Duyan would say right away that they were Nuwa and Shennong, one the creator god and the other one of the Three Sovereigns. They were too bold.
What’s even more bizarre is that no one has questioned such a ridiculous identity?
Fu Ruxuan couldn't help but curl the corners of her mouth, and performed a somewhat strange etiquette towards Feng Tianning and Pei Du. Xuan Gou Chen and Qin Guan behind her also followed suit.
Emperor Cang Xuan looked around among them for a few times, and asked uncertainly:
"My lords, are the people before us truly Lord Shennong and Lady Nuwa?"
The smile on Qin Guan's face gradually cooled, and his voice was filled with anger:
"presumptuous."
"How dare a monarch of a small country question the identity of Goddess Nuwa?"
Emperor Cang Xuan was really confused now. He had clearly seen that Feng Tianning only vaguely resembled the portrait. How could he be a real god?
However, through observation over the past few days, Emperor Cang Xuan was also certain that the people in front of him must have come from heaven.
He looked at Feng Tianning suspiciously, with a bad feeling in his heart.
"In that case, I won't bother you any more."
Emperor Cang Xuan bowed to them and then left. After leaving, he ordered his secret guards to investigate their origins at all costs.
Unfortunately, it is destined to be fruitless.
Seeing Emperor Cang Xuan leave, Xuan Gou Chen and the others instantly let down their guard, stretched their stiff necks, sat down and said with a smile:
"How did you find this place?"
Pei Duyan recounted in detail what happened after they were suddenly called away by a man who looked like Feng Tianning.
"Are you saying that we are now in a gourd called Fangcun Realm?"
Xuan Gou Chen and the others’ brows were getting more and more furrowed.
"But we haven't seen anyone who looks like Tianning."
"I just remember that I was talking to you guys one second, and the next second I was in this Fangcun Realm."
Pei Duyan was also stunned. When "Feng Tianning" first appeared, they were still discussing whether this person was real or fake. How come they forgot about it in the blink of an eye?
He took a step back cautiously, walked to Feng Tianning and whispered:
"I feel like something's wrong."
Feng Tianning glanced at Fu Ruxuan and the other two, then said after a moment's silence:
'That's definitely not true.'
“They are the same people, but they are not the same people.”
"What's the meaning?"
Now not only Pei Duyan was confused, the others were also confused.
Feng Tianning glanced at the small words above their heads. Their names and cultivation levels were all their own, but there was an extra line of words at the end:
One of the three souls and seven spirits is missing.
All three of them were like this.
Because of this, they have no memory of when they came in and even their behavior has become strange.
Feng Tianning was a little skeptical when Emperor Cang Xuan said that just now.
Fu Ruxuan and the others were not impulsive people. How could they rashly claim that they were immortals from heaven and take on the responsibility of "saving the dying and healing the wounded" before they had even figured out the situation here?
The children of ancient martial arts families always prioritize self-preservation. How could they volunteer to go to the most chaotic place in the royal capital to perform heroic deeds?
It was not until he saw the small words above their heads that Feng Tianning realized that they had lost their souls.
Pei Duyan's face turned pale for a moment, and he asked anxiously:
"What about me?"
"Don't worry, you're fine."
Upon hearing this, Pei Duyan finally breathed a sigh of relief.
"Tianning, what should we do?"
Xuan Gou Chen and the others almost believed Feng Tianning's words, and there was a hint of urgency on their faces.
