Chapter 63: Old Stories◇
◎The Beginning of the Lich War◎
Kong Shuang first met the Styx a long, long time ago, when she was still very young. The sudden disappearance of her brother Garuda forced her to leave the Immortal Volcano under the watchful eyes of Zhunti Jieying.
At that time, she didn't know Hongyun Zhenyuanzi yet, and her cultivation was not very high. She accidentally entered the sea of blood while being hunted by Zhunti.
Tens of thousands of years have passed, but she still remembers that time when Minghe was sitting on the shore in dishevel, with two fox beauties with big fluffy tails in his arms. They were so charming and the scene was very erotic.
A country bumpkin fresh out of the mountains had never seen such a grand spectacle before. She stared at the three men motionlessly for a long time before realizing she had interrupted their fun. She hurriedly apologized, "I didn't mean to. You guys continue!"
After that, she found a hiding place and said to the three people watching her, "Go on, just pretend I'm not here. I won't peek."
With her as a third wheel, the three of them remained silent and could only stare at each other. After a long moment, Minghe suddenly laughed and teased, "How about you join us?"
She was immediately horrified, thinking that this place was definitely a dangerous place and she could not stay there any longer, so she fled in a panic.
As the days passed, she met Hongyun Zhenyuanzi and formed an alliance. When she was no longer as afraid of Zhunti as before, Minghe appeared again and said, "Actually, what I told you before is true. Do you want to practice dual cultivation with me?"
It was so straightforward that Kong Shuang was unable to react. He was shocked for a long time and then flatly refused.
Minghe laughed and left, leaving behind a sentence before leaving: "Kong Shuang, you will regret saying this sooner or later!"
She couldn't beat Minghe, so she could only silently complain about where the Puxin man came from, and gradually put him out of her mind.
When they met again next time, there was another fox beauty in the man's arms, walking past her in a swaggering manner.
Recalling this, Kong Shuang breathed a sigh of relief, pointed at the person in the water mirror and said to Tong Tian bluntly: "Don't believe him, he is the best at talking nonsense!"
Tongtian's eyes were solemn, and the coldness emanating from his body was still there. He didn't say anything, but patted her head and asked her to turn around and continue watching.
In the west, Minghe finished his story in grief and anger, and began to share the same hatred with Zhunti: "Saint, tell me, isn't Kong Shuang too much? After so many years, she didn't even notice me."
The corners of Kong Shuang's mouth twitched as she silently peeked at the screen. If he hadn't patted Zhunti's shoulder and said they were good brothers, she would have almost believed that Minghe was really infatuated with her for thousands of years.
The way to make friends with Zhunti is very simple, that is to scold Kong Shuang with him. If you want to be good friends, it is even simpler, just add Tongtian on the basis of Kong Shuang.
After talking for a while, Zhunti was filled with righteous indignation along with Minghe, and they immediately began to look for a good place for Minghe and the Asuras to live in Lingshan.
Jie Yin's hands, stretched out to refuse, were not noticed at all, and froze in mid-air awkwardly.
Kong Shuang and Tongtian also fell into a strange silence.
She had never doubted the ability of the Styx, and knew that the Styx would be able to successfully penetrate the interior of the West, but she had never imagined that he would step on her corpse to ascend to the throne, and be so successful.
The cold air emanating from Tongtian dissipated a little, and he curled up the corners of his lips and rubbed her head with interest.
Kong Shuang clapped his hands down expressionlessly.
Ever since Zhunti Jieyin hurriedly left the Wu Clan, Dijiang felt that he had finally waited for the opportunity to attack the demon clan in a fair and open manner.
He had been sending people to monitor the two people, and he knew exactly what the two people had been doing behind their backs while preaching to the human race. Who did the human race have the deepest connection with? Naturally, it was Nuwa, and Nuwa was from the demon clan. In the final analysis, it was the demon clan that was making trouble for their witch clan.
The reason why the true identities of the two people were not directly exposed was because they claimed that they had a close relationship with the Saint Nuwa, and Nuwa was currently one of the people in the demon clan that Dijiang feared the most.
He wanted to learn more about Nuwa through Zhunti's guidance, but the sudden departure of the two men made this impossible, so Dijiang decided to take the initiative.
The Witch Clan was the first to break the previous agreement. You, the Demon Clan, secretly sent spies to hide in our Witch Clan and didn't allow us to seek justice. No matter how you look at it, we are right.
The leader of the demon clan was still conquering Lingshan at this time, and the second in command, Donghuang Taiyi, led the demon gods to fight. The two sides were basically evenly matched and neither could defeat the other. After a stalemate for a while, the witch clan used their trump card and set up the Twelve Heavenly Gods and Demons Formation that could summon Pangu's true body.
It was as if the balance of the scales was suddenly broken, and victory tilted towards the Witch Clan. As for the Demon Clan, Donghuang Taiyi had once witnessed the power of the Twelve Capitals of Gods and Demons Formation, and immediately led the Demon Clan to retreat to the Heavenly Palace and stayed indoors.
The witch clan left triumphantly.
When Di Jun came back, he found that his hometown had been raided just like Jie Yin and Zhunti.
What's even more tragic is that after the trip to Lingshan, he realized that Nuwa, the demon saint who he had been expecting to appear in the world, was unreliable and he had to rely on himself.
The upper echelons of the demon clan held small meetings for several days in a row and finally came up with a solution, which was that the demon clan would also create a large formation of Twelve Gods and Demons in the Sky that was not inferior to the witch clan's.
It sounds simple, but the actual operation is very difficult. The demon tribe has no talents in this area. The only one with some talent in formation is Fuxi, but he has an unusual relationship with Nuwa and cannot be used.
Di Jun is now afraid of Nuwa, fearing that one day she will remove him from the position of Demon King and replace him with Fuxi. After all, Fuxi still has some prestige in Heaven!
When talking about formations in the ancient times, one person cannot be avoided - Shangqing Tongtian!
The most talked about thing about this Shangqing Saint, who is considered the number one in the prehistoric world, is the Great Spirit Gathering Formation in the west. Secondly, the Zhuxian Sword Formation in his hand
It is also very popular.
The achievement point is that he almost killed two saints, which makes him the well-deserved number one killing formation in the prehistoric world!
Emperor Jun immediately sent people to Kunlun Mountain to invite the Shangqing Saint to attend the birth ceremony of the ten little princes in heaven.
I forgot to mention that as early as when the Wu Clan attacked the Heavenly Palace, Donghuang Taiyi brought his precious nephews back to the Heavenly Palace, fearing that they would be targeted by the Wu Clan if they were not careful.
Inviting Tongtian seemed a bit snobbish, and adding Kong Shuang to the invitation list was also considered.
Kong Shuang could not give face to Di Jun, but she could not give face to her best friend Chang Xi. Besides, she was also very interested in the ten little golden crows, and she excitedly pulled Tongtian to the heaven.
The ceremony was held in the same hall where Emperor Jun and Xihe had made their covenant. Kong Shuang was once again led in by the ceremonial officer, and he still missed that time a little.
Although they suffered a defeat, the demon clan seemed unaffected. The ceremony was still grand and colorful, with demons in the hall partying to celebrate the birth of the little prince.
Before Little Golden Crow showed up, Taiyi saw the two of them and immediately walked over. Without even looking at Kong Shuang, he rushed straight to Tongtian and said, "Come with me!"
His brows were furrowed, his face was cold, but his tone of voice was very unconfident.
Kong Shuang looked at him suspiciously and pushed Tongtian: "Then go quickly!"
Di Jun is not a good person, but Tai Yi is a good person and can be played with.
Tongtian left as he was told.
No one knew where the two had gone, and Kong Shuang didn't pay much attention. When Chang Xi appeared, he looked around and couldn't help but ask curiously, "Where's Little Jinwu? Why isn't Sister Xihe here?"
Chang Xi's face turned a little ugly when she heard this: "My sister is pregnant again. She needs to take care of herself and it's not easy for her to see people."
Kong Shuang exclaimed in surprise, "Ah!" and remained silent for a long time: "This...this is too fast..."
The sisters Xihe and Changxi were born in the embrace of the Moon. Their nature was Yin, but Xihe gave birth to ten Golden Crows with extremely strong fire nature. This must have taken a lot of cultivation.
Now that she is pregnant again, she will probably lose even more.
The master of the Heavenly Palace finally showed up. Di Jun's face was a little ugly when he first appeared, but he was very good at hiding it. When he saw Kong Shuang's figure, his face immediately changed and he came to her with a smile:
"Fellow Daoist Kong Shuang, long time no see. Why is Sage Tongtian not here?"
Kong Shuang smiled and said nothing.
Seeing that Kong Shuang didn't give him face, Di Jun's expression changed slightly, and he felt a little angry in his heart. It's bad enough that Nuwa didn't give me face, but you are not a saint, and you dare to look down on me.
But then he remembered that he had something to ask Kong Shuang, and suppressed his anger.
He turned around and instructed Chang Xi: "Saint Nuwa has not arrived for a long time, go and welcome her."
Chang Xi left the hall unhappily.
When Chang Xi disappeared, Kong Shuang turned and stared at Di Jun: "Your Majesty the Demon King sent Chang Xi away, but do you have anything to say?"
Di Jun smiled faintly: "It is easier to talk to a smart person. I do have something I want to ask you, fellow Taoist."
It must be said that Di Jun has a high emotional intelligence. When he speaks like this, it is like a breeze, which makes people feel good about him. Kong Shuang raised his eyebrows: "If you have something to say, why not just say it?"
Kong Shuang had said this, so Di Jun didn't hesitate and said directly, "To be honest, the Wu Clan has a twelve-degree heavenly demon formation that is causing trouble in the prehistoric world. My demon clan is deeply troubled by it. For long-term planning, we have decided to create a large formation as well. We would like to ask for the assistance of the Sage Tongtian. If Fellow Daoist Kong Shuang can mediate, it will be twice as effective with half the effort."
He saw Kong Shuang frowning, with an indescribable expression on his face, which was very subtle, and it seemed that he didn't want to agree.
With a thought in his mind, Di Jun smiled and was about to use a provocation, for example:
Fellow Daoist Kong Shuang, do you think the Saint won't give you this face? How is that possible? Everyone in the prehistoric world knows your relationship, so how could they not listen to you...
Of course, if the Saint really rejects you, then you should think carefully about your relationship. If he doesn't even agree to such a small request, is such a man worthy of your trust? It's better to look at us demons...
Kong Shuang raised his eyebrows and stared at him for a long time. After a long while, he said in a voice that seemed to be neither a smile nor a laugh: "The dignified leader of the demon clan, the Demon Emperor of Heaven, do you have any shame?"
Di Jun's smile froze on his face, as if he couldn't believe what he heard: "What did you say?"
Kong Shuang cleared his throat, but his voice remained thin: "I say, you claim to be unparalleled in wisdom and strategy, and treat everyone else as a fool. If you want to go to war with the Wu Clan, I won't say a word, but you have set your sights on Tongtian."
"If the two tribes were to go to war, with a killing array comparable to the Twelve Capitals of Gods and Demons, who knows how much karma would be involved. You think the saints are immune to karma, and you treat them as if they were the ones being taken advantage of? So you get the benefits, while others bear the brunt of the blame..."
Kong Shuang spoke directly to Di Jun's thoughts without taking a breath, and finally said, "When Di Jun was listening to the teachings in Zixiao Palace, he was devoted to the demon race and his sincerity was admirable. How did he become like this now?"
