Chapter 151: The New World Main Text is Completed!!
Xu Xingxing finally understood why Wei Yuan said that she would definitely like this world.
There had never been a great war to chase away demons in this world. Kunlun was as prosperous as before, and there had not been the subsequent scene of numerous heads rolling and wronged souls scattered all over the land.
Although the world of Chengxu has become Chengqing, it is said that many orthodox cultivators have escaped. Some of these cultivators have become independent cultivators, while others have gone to Kunlun and Yuqiu.
This world is still under the jurisdiction of the Xia Dynasty, but it is said that a hundred years ago, when the Three Kingdoms were in a tripartite relationship, the royal family of one of the three kingdoms disappeared overnight. After that, the country was in chaos for only a few days before it was quickly taken over by the current Xia Dynasty.
As if he knew it in advance.
At first Xu Xingxing thought that it was Mo Yuan who traveled through time and space to change the past, but later she discovered that it was more than that.
Because she ran into Fang Zhiming, Lin Yue and Qin Feng on the street.
Coincidentally, the three of them were the ones who stayed with her when she died, and they were also the first ones she met in reality.
She thought they definitely wouldn't recognize her, and was about to pretend to be a passerby walking by, but Fang Zhiming stared at her for five full breaths, then let out a shrill chicken cry, pointed at her and kept calling her "you you you" for a long time but no one came out with a word.
Lin Yue's expression also collapsed as if she saw her boyfriend kissing another man in public.
Qin Feng's expression was even more shocked, his face remained red, and the color did not fade even after they separated.
After the four people recognized each other, Lin Yue took Xu Xingxing into the restaurant for dinner.
Welcome guests.
I heard from others that the owner of this store disappeared inexplicably, leaving behind only a letter of transfer, in which he transferred all the stores under his name to a distant relative of his family, whose name was:
Xu Xingxing.
Distant relative: ???
Xu Xingxing learned the news just after waking up in the Taikoo Mountains. Within half a day, someone delivered several boxes of deeds to her, including Ke Lai'an's receipts and account books, along with the profit accounts from previous years. There was also a key, supposedly only hers, that could unlock the Taikoo Underground Palace. Xu Xingxing rubbed it in her hand, thinking of the slippery skeleton in the pool of blood.
She didn't know how to run a business, but she heard that she didn't have to worry because her husband Xu Mo, the God Lord, had already trained a group of capable assistants for her. She only needed to collect money and take care of herself.
Hearing the word "God Lord", Xu Xingxing looked up at the sixty-year-old man in gray clothes in front of him.
"Who are you?"
"insect."
“…”
This kind-looking old man...did Wei Yuan order him to become like this...
And still follows his master?
The bugs really follow Hou Yuan without thinking...
Xu Xingxing had thought that the bugs were brought to this world by Wei Yuan, but now she knew that it was not the case. Instead, they were just like Fang Zhiming and the others.
Reborn.
Shocked, she repeated several times, "Really? You mean all? All? Everything?"
Fang Zhiming nodded. "Yes, not only those of us who survived, but also all those who died in the Demon-Exorcist War, and those who died afterward because of the monsters and Hou Yuan, were all reborn on the same day a hundred years ago."
"But how could you die? Aren't you very powerful?"
"The stars are not important. I don't regret it. I am willing to do it."
So... this is for her?
That shouldn't be the case...Yuan still wants to keep her trapped in the illusion, so he wouldn't let them be reborn just for her...
What a huge project this must be...
And what's her purpose? She's not a good person...
"You have no idea how lively that day was, because the next day was the day when Hou Yuan killed all the Kunlun Mahayana cultivators. So on the first day, those reborn Kunlun cultivators fled or defended themselves. In the end, they were on high alert all day, and Hou Yuan didn't even show up, let alone show his shadow."
Fang Zhiming's face was full of vicissitudes, and he was almost smoking a cigarette. "But those who escaped were directly expelled from Kunlun. Sigh... Fortunately, I didn't give up."
"The human world was in chaos for a while, but thanks to Kunlun's intervention, things quickly calmed down. Furthermore, the number of demons suddenly decreased by half, with hundreds of troublesome monsters disappearing overnight." Lin Yue leaned slightly toward her. "Senior Sister, do you know who everyone is saying is responsible for this?"
Suddenly, there was a knock on the wake-up stick in the hall, which scared several people sitting in the corner.
"Last time we talked about how, in the past, the Tianji Pavilion had calculated that Xu Xing'er, the daughter of Sect Leader Xu Yi, was the savior. But now Sect Leader Xu has announced to the world that the true savior isn't their daughter. So who is it?" The storyteller in the hall stroked his beard. "It all started with the first demon subduing in the forest."
Xu Xingxing: ...
Does Kelian still have this business?
Chongzi is becoming more and more adept at being the shopkeeper.
Fang Zhiming ate some melon seeds. "This version of the story about salvation is everywhere these days. It originated from Ke Lai'an. Wow, this adaptation is great. It's just a simple story about conquering demons, without all the romance. The image of the senior sister is much more positive."
Xu Xingxing also ate melon seeds: "I still like brainless stories like the domineering demon god falling in love with me."
Lin Yue drank tea: "... Senior Sister, please don't say that in Kunlun. Many disciples admire you very much."
"Alas, they only admire my personality." Xu Xingxing sighed: "But, you all know that I'm not Xu Xing'er anymore? Why are you still calling me Senior Sister?"
Several people looked a little strange, and Fang Zhiming broke the awkwardness: "Senior Sister... Master and Master's Wife didn't have children later. They wanted to, but didn't..."
Xu Xingxing was stunned: "What about Xu Xing'er?"
"The Tianji Pavilion made a final divination, saying that Senior Sister Xu was born as a shell, and now she doesn't want to return, so Heaven has sent her to another world." Lin Yue sighed. "But they also said that if Sect Leader Xu is sincere enough, she might be able to wait for her in two hundred years."
"The last hexagram?"
"Yes, no one expected that Hou Yuan would directly change the past. After all beings were reborn, the prophecy of salvation spread throughout the world within half a month. The Tianji Pavilion was overcrowded with people who wanted to apply, but for some reason the Pavilion Master ordered the disbanding of the immortal sect."
Fang Zhiming looked more vicissitudes of life. "But I understand him, too. Let's not talk about him anymore. I even want to become a monk. Senior Sister, when you were blown into a bloody mess, Lin Yue and I were both shocked. I really envy Si Li who didn't see anything..."
Qin Feng, who had been silent the whole time, couldn't help but say, "Why did you insist on blocking the heavy blow for us that day? Life and death are determined by fate. Since I chose to help you, I don't need you to save me. You could have been fine, and he clearly wouldn't hurt you. Why did you have to act like that?"
Xu Xingxing sighed: "Since I asked you to help me, how could I let you sacrifice your life for me in vain? As for acting like that... just think of me as being kind."
The storyteller was filled with passion: "The savior was compassionate and sacrificed his life for justice. He slew the demon god Hou Yuan with his sword, and then exhausted all his divine power to turn the world around and create the prosperous world we see today..."
Xu Xingxing: ...
Lin Yue sipped her tea and said, "Eh, even though the Demon God Hou Yuan is extremely cruel, he treats Senior Sister... really well."
Fang Zhiming ate melon seeds. "When we first arrived at Spirit Beast Mountain, he only pestered Senior Sister and ignored everyone else, which always made Master feel lost. By the way, Senior Sister, when will you return to Spirit Beast Mountain? Master is always thinking about you, and—"
"I'm not going back." Xu Xingxing ate melon seeds in the same style. "What's the point of me going back now? It's too embarrassing. After all, I'm not really a savior. If you want to explain it in detail, I chose Wei Yuan's side at that time. Besides, I'm not Xu Xing'er. If people know, they will understand that I was forced to do so. If people don't know, I'm afraid they will think I'm taking over the position."
Several people were silent.
See, someone will definitely say it.
She didn't care and just smiled and said, "You don't have to call me Senior Sister from now on. Just call me Xingxing. Xu Xingxing, my real name."
After saying goodbye, Lin Yue was reluctant to leave. Xu Xingxing pinched her face and said, "It's okay. It's not like I'm gone. I live on Taikoo Mountain now. Come visit me often."
Lin Yue nodded vigorously with tears in her eyes, then left, looking back every few steps.
The days that followed were quite leisurely for Xu Xingxing, though somewhat bored. He either lay in a daze on the pile of gold in the underground palace or listened to storytelling at Ke Lai An. Until one day, a man arrived and broke the peace.
The man shouted her name outside the mountain gate. When Xu Xingxing came out and saw the person, she was shocked.
Yiao???
Ao Jie???
ah? ? ?
Didn’t they meet in a fantasy world?
Yi Ao instructed Ding Run to find a sunny room in Taikoo while explaining the whole story.
To make a long story short, she had a very real dream. Later, she actually met the boy who had been making the elixir in her dream. The boy said he would help her, but she had to do one thing.
"Xingxing!" Yi Ao rushed over and hugged her. "I was so fascinated by you in my dreams, and now I finally get to see you in person!"
After just a few rubs, Yi Ao was grabbed by the scruff of the neck and led away by Ding Run, who nodded slightly at her: "Sorry for being rude."
Xu Xingxing quickly waved her hands, looking serious: "It's okay, I really like Sister Ao like this."
Ding Run frowned slightly and said solemnly, "God Ke Ze ordered me to keep an eye on her and not let her touch you. He also ordered me to control her words."
"Who cares?" Yi Ao fluttered in Ding Run's hands. "Don't think you can use chicken feathers as a token of authority. Who's in charge of Taikoo now? It's my star—hmm."
Ding Run covered Yi Ao's mouth, then nodded and apologized to Xu Xingxing: "I'll go and deal with him right away."
Xu Xingxing: ...
"Wait..." She raised her hand.
Ding Run turned around.
"You two should stay away from my room."
Ding Run: ...
"good."
"Who the hell wants to share a room with you? I want to share a room with Xingxing—ugh!"
Xu Xingxing: ...
"You'll definitely like the world outside."
I like it very much.
But……
I like you more.
When will you be back?
I really, really miss you...
When Xu Xingxing thought she would spend her days in noisy or quiet waiting, one day, a voice suddenly rang in her mind:
"The Book of Beasts has been successfully reconnected. Host, long time no see."
Xu Xingxing's hair stood up immediately.
What the hell?! It's haunting me!
She quickly entered her sea of consciousness and saw the ghostly glowing book again. She felt that it was much more terrifying than seeing Kayako in the middle of the night!
"Why are you back again? Isn't it enough that you've tortured me like that?"
"Your mission is not yet complete."
"I'm going to fuck your mission!"
But the Book of Beasts is always there, reminding her three times a day that she should do her tasks, which is even more punctual than her meals.
She was extremely discouraged, and later, when she was really forced into a corner, she gave up and asked it what the benefit of completing the mission was.
It returns:
"A wish."
These four words suddenly woke Xu Xingxing up. What if her wish was to resurrect Hou Yuan?
Isn’t this Book of Beasts a part of the Heavenly Dao’s spirit?
And forcing him to become a god, it must have something to do with him, right?
So, its appearance now is actually helping her?
With the idea of giving it a try, she started to do the task.
It is simpler than before because this world has not experienced a great war to chase down demons. Not only is the species diversity high, but the rare spiritual beasts that were once seen are also very common.
Within half a year, Xu Xingxing had found everyone.
The moment she found them all, the Book of Beasts suddenly burst into a bright white light and instantly took her in.
The space was pure white, with a person sitting cross-legged in the middle, wearing tattered clothes, looking over with a smile:
"Daughter-in-law!"
Xu Xingxing: ...Fuck you!
"So you are Hao Yuan's father?" Xu Xingxing simply sat on the ground not far away.
"His father? That's too harsh." Wu Ming dragged his chin. "Father, I am his biological father."
"So, can you help me resurrect him?" Xu Xingxing said with impatience, going straight to the point.
"I can, but I need your help." Wu Ming frowned and looked nonchalant.
"How can I help?"
Wu Ming raised his finger and pointed at her: "I have to take the half soul of Wei Yuan out of your body."
It was Xu Xingxing's turn to be shocked, "...Is there still some in my body?"
"Of course I am." Wu Ming tutted his words. "Do you think that guy is a good person? He's so cunning and treacherous. He pretended to be generous and sent you out, but he was actually afraid that you might fall in love with someone else, so he was hiding in the dark and watching you the whole time."
Xu Xingxing was furious: "You are not a good person, you are insidious and cunning."
Um...
Xu Xingxing still didn't understand: "When did he do it? How come I didn't know? And he's quite weak..."
Could it be that the half hour he disappears every once in a while is to separate his soul?
"This half of your soul has no demonic nature at all, and it has a genuine divine flavor. He must have spent a lot of effort to tear it off."
really.
Wu Ming sighed. "My son, well, do you know how much suffering he endured after your death? He went to Kunlun to be killed over and over again for revenge, and then went to hell to be torn apart by evil spirits. Tsk, tsk, tsk, his true feelings are evident."
Therefore, he must have used her suffering to provoke Wei Yuan before.
Xu Xingxing was irritated and spoke harshly, "Isn't this all thanks to you, his biological father? I was just wondering, you pushed him so hard before, and now you want his soul, you don't have any conspiracy, do you?"
"I swear to God." Wu Ming held up three fingers. "I'm really doing this for his own good."
Xu Xingxing rolled her eyes and didn't want to respond.
Wu Ming hummed again, "Do you know why he was always so unlucky as a human being?"
"Why?" Xu Xingxing looked up at him.
"Because he is the child of the devil and God, he is beyond the reach of justice. Evil will befall him, and he cannot escape or hide from it. Although he has the power to destroy heaven and earth after becoming a devil, those close to him will be targeted by evil, without exception." Wu Ming looked at her. "Do you think you can escape?"
Xu Xingxing recalled that after being with Wei Yuan, it seemed... she was a bit unlucky.
Wu Ming continued, "If you can't escape, his demonic nature will only grow stronger. He's so cruel, and one day he'll be devoured. Even if he can gather his soul again after death, he'll still be a demon. This cycle will repeat itself, haunting him with evil. That's why I forced him to eliminate his demonic nature and become a true god. Becoming a god is so wonderful. Look, that remaining soul is in your body now. Not only can you not feel it, but it can also help you cultivate your character and nourish your body—"
"Then where were you?" Xu Xingxing noticed Huadian and frowned angrily, "When he was suffering in the mortal world and being humiliated, where were you? You can't even protect your own child. You really betray the way of heaven!"
Wu Ming looked at her for a moment, then suddenly smiled. "There are countless injustices in this world. The blood of people who died unjustly could form a river of red. Little Star, can't you see? There is no such thing as justice in this world. I just gave myself a random name for convenience. I was asleep when he suffered. If the Pavilion Master of Tianji Pavilion hadn't risked his life to pray for the heavens to open their eyes, I wouldn't have woken up. After waking up, I saw that the evildoer was my son, so I intervened. That's all."
"Sleeping?" Xu Xingxing asked, "Why sleeping? How can you create a child while sleeping? Who are you kidding?"
Wu Ming suddenly burst into laughter, tears streaming down his face. It took him a while to stop. "No wonder my silly son is so bewitched by you. You really know how to make people laugh."
"You misunderstood." Xu Xingxing said seriously, "I was completely bewitched by him."
Wu Ming rolled on the ground laughing.
Xu Xingxing: ...
The father and son have such a mysterious way of laughing.
He finally finished laughing, wiped the tears from his eyes and said, "Of course, you can't have a child while sleeping, because that child... is his mother's posthumous child from ten thousand years ago."
The unruly aura surrounding Wuming vanished instantly, and a faint sense of sadness filled him, as if he were a completely different person. "During the great war between immortals and demons, the Celestial Demons were utterly slaughtered. Unbeknownst to anyone, the most honored of the Celestial Demon Princesses gouged out her child, less than a month old, and scattered it into the mortal world. Gods don't die easily. Although his mother only carried him for a few days, she gifted him with the ability to draw upon the essence of the sun and moon, slowly transforming into a human form."
"It was ten thousand years before he regained consciousness." Xu Xingxing felt a strong empathy for Hou Yuan's mother. Her chest heaved with anger, and she almost wanted to curse: "You...you...you are such a beast! She's a woman, she's pregnant with your child, and you...you even slaughtered her entire tribe?"
What a ridiculously bloody script!
"I didn't take action. To appease me, the Emperor promised a long-lasting friendship between the immortals and the demons. He then hosted a banquet to get me drunk, and then sent troops in my name to kill all the demons." Wu Ming looked at her. "By the time I woke up, it was too late."
Xu Xingxing was stunned, her arrogance gradually subsided: "And then?"
"Ah..." Wu Ming started to act frivolously again, "I'm truly a rare genius. I single-handedly wiped out the entire Immortal Realm. I even slew the Emperor with my sword. Of course, I was also severely injured and fell into a deep sleep."
"...Don't gods ever die?"
"Yes, but it depends on the circumstances. Hou Yuan's death was due to his actions against heaven, but because he retained a remnant of his soul, his rebirth time will be much shorter. For those like the ones I killed, it would take at least hundreds of thousands of years for them to gather their souls. Furthermore, just in case, I tore through the void and threw them out of this world. Even if they were to resurrect, I wouldn't be in trouble."
Xu Xingxing: ...
So that's it.
In this respect, Wei Yuan is somewhat like his father...
"Aren't you curious about why I chose you when there are so many worlds and so many people in each world?" Wu Ming suddenly asked in a mysterious tone.
Xu Xingxing blinked: "Isn't it a coincidence?"
"How can there be so many coincidences? If there are coincidences, there must be something at work, but you and I just don't know it." Shenshendaodao plus.
"Then do you know or not?"
"Do you know who was the last person I saw when I was seriously injured?" Wu Ming narrowed his eyes.
"Zhou Yuan?"
Wu Ming's eyes widened, like a child whose thoughts were known, and he was completely devastated: "How did you know?"
"I'm smart."
Wu Ming frowned and snorted twice, then reluctantly admitted, "I'm not stupid."
"And then? Did Wei Yuan ask you to find me?"
"How is that possible? He came to kill me! But then he thought of something else, maybe because he saw how pitiful I was at the time, so he softened his heart." Wu Ming chuckled, "But I was able to catch a trace of his scent, and later I used it to find you."
Xu Xingxing suddenly realized something and raised his hand, "I have another question."
Wu Ming was very patient: "Ask."
"Where is Xu Xing'er?"
"Your world." Wu Ming was a little puzzled. "She went there a long time ago. She chose it herself."
Xu Xingxing nodded, pondered for a moment, and then raised his hand: "Why can you control the people of Kunlun?"
"control?"
"Xu Yi isn't such an impulsive person. Although he wants revenge, he certainly wouldn't joke with the lives of Kunlun. But when I was trapped on the Sizhen Cliff, they all seemed to be possessed by demons, determined to die. Why is that?"
Wu Ming was mysterious again. "It's not about control. I just need to stir up their emotions a little bit. Anger can blind people and make them impulsive. Just let them stay angry and that'll be enough."
"One last question." Xu Xingxing said solemnly, "Did you know that Wei Yuan would change the past in the end?"
"I don't know." Wu Mingyi replied seriously, "Little Star, I'm not the Way of Heaven, nor am I a god anymore. I'm just a father who lost his wife and whose child has gone astray. Of course, I just want to use my limited strength to do something for him, that's all."
Xu Xingxing was not surprised. She sighed and stood up: "Then... I'll trouble you, Yuan."
"It's not a big deal." Wu Ming was pleased by the word "you". "No matter how hard he tries, he'll still make you wait a hundred or eighty years. As for me... I can at least shorten it a little."
Xu Xingxing was shocked by this and said with a constipated look, "Then please work harder so that your child can find a wife."
Wu Ming laughed out loud, and Xu Xingxing calmly left this space.
All we can do in the days ahead is wait.
She was living a good life, eating well, playing well, making good friends, and missing him a lot.
More and more people came to the Taigu Mountains, and even Xiaoran Sili came here to live.
The mountains were becoming increasingly lively, and she was busy doing many things every day, but whenever she had a quiet moment, she would miss him.
She thought that no matter how powerful Wu Ming's ability was, she would still have to wait 20 to 30 years to start. But one day, half a year later, the Book of Beasts made a mechanical sound after a long absence and told her a location.
Then it completely disappeared from her sea of consciousness.
She didn't care about the disappointment and flew to that place with her heart pounding like thunder.
It is Lingshou Mountain.
It was her first time encountering the land of Ziyuan.
In a moment, she arrived.
But there was no one.
…
There is a sleeping dog.
Little black dog.
"How's it going? This speed didn't embarrass my son, did it?"
There was a sound coming from the sky, but no one was in sight.
She couldn't tell whether she was happy or disappointed. She just squatted down and held the puppy in her arms, complaining softly: "...Why don't you give your son a human body?"
"A human doll?" Wu Ming tutted. "I heard that thing is a bit difficult to raise. I can't raise one anyway. Do you want to raise one?"
Xu Xingxing: “…No.”
"Besides, his soul chose this body itself." Wu Ming sighed, "...it seems like he would rather be a dog."
Xu Xingxing laughed out loud.
"Because it happened so quickly, his soul is like a newborn, with no memories." Wu Ming said casually, "Come on, daughter-in-law, seducing that piece of shit is a piece of cake, right? I can't stay in this world for too long, goodbye!"
As he spoke, the voice suddenly disappeared, without an echo.
Xu Xingxing looked at the puppy in her arms, feeling both happy and melancholy. She held it and sat there for a long time, looking at it for a long time. Then, when she stood up to leave, the puppy nudged in her arms, half-lifted its eyelids, looked at her with its dark eyes, and let out a low cry:
"Woof."
