Chapter 129 For a moment, Cang Li felt as if…
Cang Li felt for a moment that everything, no matter how it changed, would continue to develop according to its own course. Just like when she first brought the human race to be well-fed and clothed, after two disasters, almost all of that was wiped out.
Even now, when she was with Anong, she never realized that the girl's fate was to become Jingwei.
Cang Li turned and left, then walked to Tai Qing's side, hugged her, and said in a low voice:
"Master, it seems that the result is the same whether I do nothing or do everything."
Taiqing understood what Cangli meant and patted Cangli's head:
“It’s different. Your efforts make people’s lives better. Without you, newborns would have a very difficult life and wouldn’t have developed into what they are today. So, Ali, don’t doubt yourself. Everything you do is meaningful.”
Cang Li was somewhat confused, but she knew in her heart that this was a process that everyone had to go through, and she couldn't interfere.
The outcome was decided over there. Xuanyuan held the axe to Anong's neck and said:
"Your Majesty, you have lost. I am now the new king."
Anong looked at Xuanyuan and said indifferently, "Take the title of Emperor Yan if you want it."
Xuanyuan chuckled and put the axe away, saying:
"From this day forward, I am the Yellow Emperor, and under my leadership, the people will become the masters of the Great Wilderness!"
The surrounding crowd cheered, and the Yellow Emperor Xuanyuan began to distinguish himself at this moment.
"You are still the Yan Emperor. I will not erase your contributions, and you should not interfere with my decisions."
Anong's eyes were indifferent: "Whatever you want."
She's getting old; the world truly is a world for young people.
In Jiuli, Chi You listened to his subordinates' report that there were not many prey on the mountains, and all the little grain in the fields had been flooded. He feared that many people would starve to death this winter.
"Your Majesty, we didn't believe the rumors before because we had never been outside, but now it's been confirmed that the land in Heluo is indeed fertile and rich in resources. Once we conquer that place, our people will surely be able to eat their fill and stay warm!"
Chi You hesitated for only a moment before making his decision and leading his troops to Heluo.
The two armies clashed at Zhuolu and became locked in a stalemate.
When Er learned of this in the Heavenly Court, he immediately seized the opportunity to fill the vacant positions and arranged for Yinglong Jiutian Xuannv to descend to the mortal realm to help Xuanyuan.
Chi You was not an easy opponent, and the Jiuli people were also quite capable. In addition, the Jiuli people recovered quickly from their injuries and were strong in combat, resulting in casualties on both sides.
Seeing that Xuanyuan had not yet defeated Chiyou, Er took out a sword. This sword was called Xuanyuan Sword in Cangli's hands and Witch-Slaying Sword in the hands of the demon race. Er suddenly realized why Cangli called this sword Xuanyuan Sword.
"Everyone, you shall send this sword to the human race and give it to the Yellow Emperor."
After looking at the sword for a moment, the crowd asked, "Isn't this Sister's sword?"
Without looking up, Er said, "Yes, but if this sword is given to the Yellow Emperor, my elder sister will not have any objections."
Then the group took the swords and went to the mortal realm.
Having obtained the Xuanyuan Sword, the Yellow Emperor Xuanyuan swept through the land, killing Chiyou at Zhuolu, taking over the Jiuli tribe, and unifying the human race.
The beginning of Chinese civilization began here, and the history of humankind will be passed down continuously.
Cang Li touched her chest. Just a moment ago, a power surged in her chest, and her cultivation broke through the quasi-saint level.
Taiqing frowned slightly and, supporting Cangli, said:
"Go back and go into seclusion. If your cultivation level fluctuates, you might suffer a qi deviation."
The two returned to the Eight Views Palace as quickly as possible. Taiqing didn't say a word, sent Cangli back to his room for seclusion, and then stood guard outside.
Cang Li entered the spirit palace and saw her two corpses, one good and one evil, under a tree. The tree was full of blooming flowers, and petals kept falling. Cang Li slowly walked over, and she knew what she had to do.
At first, she was trying to survive, then she wanted to find other people, and after the human race was born, she began to want to make people's lives better and let them live on this land.
What peace on earth, what tranquility for all living beings?
No, her goal has always been to help people survive and live well on this land.
Cang Li suddenly laughed and slowly walked to the tree.
Humans lived well on this land. They lived for tens of millions of years and developed a brilliant civilization spanning five thousand years, going through the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors. At least in her previous life, there was no sign of the human race being wiped out.
So what she needed to do was actually done a long time ago; she's just realizing it now.
Cang Li slowly exhaled, holding a book in his left hand and a ruler in his right. He used the ruler of enlightenment to cut off the last corpse of his true self, then walked towards his lust and greed, fully accepting his own existence, and became the last saint.
When I opened my eyes, a thousand years had passed outside.
Cang Li was somewhat disoriented, but after becoming a saint, she could clearly feel the vast difference between a quasi-saint and a saint, and she also understood the power to turn the world upside down with a flick of the wrist.
Taiqing's ears twitched slightly, and the next second she opened her eyes, got up, and pushed open the door.
"Ah Li, congratulations."
Cang Li immediately hooked her arm around Tai Qing's neck and said with a grin:
"I've become a saint! How amazing!"
Taiqing looked down at Cangli with a smile: "Yes, I know. My second and third brothers probably know too, and they'll probably be here soon."
Cang Li was quite embarrassed: "How come you all knew?"
Tai Li smoothed Cang Li's hair: "Of course you'll know. The number of saints is fixed. Who wouldn't know if there's one more?"
Cang Li thought about it and agreed. The power of a sage is like the sun and moon, so it is normal for them to be able to sense each other.
Taiqing stared intently at Cangli. During the thousand years that Cangli had been in seclusion, he had been outside but had not been able to see Cangli. He was also afraid of disturbing Cangli, so he did not dare to enter Cangli's spiritual palace without permission. Now that he saw Cangli again, Taiqing felt his heart was filled with joy in an instant.
Cang Li snuggled closer to Tai Qing and asked, "How long have I been in seclusion?"
Taiqing said, "It's been almost a thousand years."
Cang Li's eyes widened: "So long!?" A thousand years, and she hadn't realized it at all during that time. It was no different from taking a nap. A thousand years?
Taiqing kissed Cangli's forehead: "Alright, go change your clothes. Your second and third brothers might be arriving soon. It wouldn't be good to let them block you in your room."
As she spoke, she took out a pink dress with gold trim and lotus patterns and handed it to Cang Li:
"These are the robes that my second brother made. Put them on."
Cang Li turned and went behind the screen to change her clothes. When she came out, she was braiding her hair. Tai Qing walked over and took the hair from Cang Li's hands, saying:
"Sit still, I'll help you."
After speaking, she styled Cang Li's hair into a beautiful bun, adorned it with a jeweled crown and pearl flowers, put pearl earrings on her head, hung a necklace around her neck, and jingled pendants around her waist. A goddess-like fairy appeared in the room.
Cang Li touched her hair, then looked at the jingling accessories on her body: "Isn't this too cumbersome?"
She's dressed so elegantly, it looks like she's getting married.
Taiqing said, "No, female immortals all dress like this."
Cang Li then gave up.
Xuan Du's voice came from outside:
"Master, Second Uncle, Third Uncle, Sage Nuwa, and the Two Sages of the West have all arrived!"
When Xuandu saw that several saints had arrived, he was a little flustered, thinking that something had happened. He immediately ran to find Taiqing. For the past thousand years, while Cangli had been in seclusion, Taiqing had been guarding this place and had never left.
Over the past thousand years, Yuanshi and Tongtian had visited before, often taking turns, but never before had they arrived at the Eight Views Palace together with several other sages. Xuandu even thought his master had committed some offense.
Taiqing opened the door and said:
"It's alright, please invite them here and prepare some tea and refreshments."
Xuan Du saw Tai Qing breathe a sigh of relief and was about to speak when he saw Cang Li. He immediately said happily:
"Great Chief! You've emerged from seclusion!?"
Cang Li smiled and said, "Yes, you should go and invite them over first."
Xuan Du went immediately. As soon as Xuan Du left, Cang Li saw the huge black and white iron-eating beast that had been swaying behind Xuan Du.
Wu Gu looked at Cang Li with her round eyes. She had been here for a thousand years. Her mother went into seclusion, and her father ignored her, which made Wu Gu very worried. She could only play with Senior Brother Xuan Du. Now that she had finally seen her mother, Wu Gu was not going to leave.
Cang Li's eyes lit up with excitement when he saw the grains, and he pulled Tai Qing aside to ask:
"A panda!"
Taiqing: "...She is the Five Grains."
Cang Li: "Huh?"
Then, slowly realizing what had happened, she rushed over and hugged the bear: "Aww! It's Wugu!" The domesticated panda she had rescued!
Wugu let out excited cries of "Mmm mmm mmm mmm!"
Cang Li held Wu Gu for a while before Tai Qing pulled him up. Tai Qing coughed lightly and said to Wu Gu:
"Go downstairs. A guest will be arriving soon. Ali will come to see you after she finishes her work."
Wu Gu nodded strangely, reluctant to leave, turning back every few steps, vowing in her heart that she would definitely come and act cute when Cang Li finished her work!
Cang Li looked at his hand that had touched the bear with lingering satisfaction and chuckled.
"Master, the grains feel so good to the touch!"
"Tsk, you guys are getting less and less discreet about keeping things from people."
Tongtian's teasing tone came over, and Cang Li looked over and immediately raised his hand in a friendly manner:
"Yo~ Third brother, you've come?"
Tongtian: "...You can call me by my name, but if you call me 'Third Brother' again, I'll beat you up."
Cang Li chuckled; she wasn't afraid of Tongtian at all.
Yuanshi followed closely behind, and upon seeing Cangli, his expression softened considerably, and he nodded in satisfaction.
"good."
Next, Nuwa and Fuxi arrived together. After Fuxi became one of the Three Sovereigns, he did not live in the Fire Cloud Cave, but instead lived with Nuwa in the Nuwa Palace. Naturally, they came together this time.
When Nuwa saw Cangli, she reached out and grabbed Cangli's ear:
"You little rascal, you even lied to me!"
When Cang Li became a saint, the spiritual energy of heaven and earth fluctuated abnormally. Nuwa didn't understand what was going on at first, but after she figured out that it was because Cang Li had become a saint, she immediately realized that when she asked Cang Li about the Primordial Purple Qi, Cang Li didn't know anything. It turned out that this was what was waiting for her.
Cang Li immediately buried himself in Nuwa's arms and begged for mercy:
"Ouch! Mom, be gentle! I'm not lying to you! I really didn't know what purple aura was when you asked me!"
Nuwa chuckled and released her grip, then tapped Cang Li's forehead:
"Fine, I won't argue with you. Bao'er, how did you become a saint?"
Cang Li thought for a moment and said, "I guess I just finished what I was supposed to do."
Finally, Jieyin and Zhunti arrived with a jealous look in their eyes, and said in a sour tone:
"Is becoming a saint so easy? Why don't you teach us brothers? We made forty-eight great vows before we achieved it, how come it's so easy for you?"
Cang Li raised his chin: "I'm a genius, you disagree?"
Jieyin Zhunti: ...
