I am a boss in the world of nine uncles
Chapter 1850: Bones exposed in the wild, not a rooster crows in the village!
"Let the test begin."
Fuxi smiled and shook his head, opening a portal to an unknown destination with a wave of his sleeve.
The Yellow Emperor waved and said, "Let's go, Zhang Bairen. Now that you've passed our three tests, you're one step closer to your grand goal of marrying ten wives."
Zhang Bairen suddenly tensed up, but still stepped firmly into the portal and disappeared into the cave in an instant.
"Master, we'll head out now." Feng Yi said, clasping his hands in greeting.
The Yellow Emperor nodded: "Go..."
Qin Yao was really worried about the two of them, so he smiled and said, "Three seniors, let's go outside and wait."
“You don’t need to,” the Yellow Emperor waved his hand. “After all, you were the ones who brought Zhang Bairen here, so you should stay and see how he performs.”
Qin Yao: "..."
A few moments.
The two young men surnamed Feng walked together, going further and further until they reached the surging blue sea. They looked at each other and slowed down together.
"Is no one following us?" Feng Meng asked.
Feng Yi took out a transparent round bead with a flip of his hand, and raised his palm high towards the setting sun over the sea.
Bathed in the glow of the setting sun, the orb suddenly released bursts of light, scanning the sky and the ground without producing any other reaction.
"should not."
He let out a silent breath and said softly.
Feng Meng nodded slightly, then immediately knelt down facing the setting sun, reciting the Sun Sutra.
"Whoosh..."
Under the call of the scriptures, a golden fireball suddenly plummeted and instantly transformed into a giant golden crow in the sky above the sea.
"Greetings, Your Highness." Feng Yi and Feng Meng bowed simultaneously.
The eldest prince raised his hand: "No need for formalities. Speak, what is it?"
Feng Yi pursed his lips and said, "Hou Yi appeared in the Fire Cloud Cave."
The eldest prince's right eyelid twitched suddenly: "How could he be in the Fire Cloud Cave?"
Feng Meng responded, "He brought a young man to be tested by the Three Sovereigns; and the young man said that he would be diligent in governing and loving the people, and would marry ten wives!"
The eldest prince's eyes flickered: "Diligent in governing and loving the people? Could it be that they are going to put forward another human ruler?"
He was well aware of the current situation of the human race. Surrounded and coveted by various demonic beasts, they were no different from mere food rations. This was a far cry from the prosperous state of the human race during the reign of the Three Sovereigns.
That is why he suspected this first: that the Three Sovereigns had the ambition to revive and prosper the human race!
Unable to answer the question, Feng Yi and Feng Meng could only lower their heads and remain silent, waiting for instructions.
In the midst of the silence, the First Prince suddenly revealed a sinister smile: "Your intelligence is very important. I've noted your contribution, and we'll reward you later."
As for now, remember that the Three Sovereigns sought to restore the glory of humanity during the time of our ancient ancestors.
If one day the Heavenly Emperor asks you about this, tell him the same thing.
"Yes," the two said in unison.
The eldest prince laughed heartily, transformed back into his golden crow form, and soared straight into the heavens. In an instant, he arrived before the Heavenly Emperor's Palace, bowed, and said, "Your son requests an audience with the Heavenly Emperor."
"Come in, boss."
Inside the imperial palace, the Heavenly Emperor silently tucked a fairy into his sleeve, straightened his posture, and raised his eyes to speak.
The eldest prince straightened his back and stepped through the door, his face cold and solemn as he said, "Your Majesty, I have received crucial intelligence: the human race is plotting a rebellion."
The Heavenly Emperor was astonished: "Treason? Treason against whom?"
"Of course it's a plot to rebel against my Heavenly Clan!" the First Prince said decisively.
The Heavenly Emperor chuckled: "How is this possible?"
"Hou Yi has found a candidate for the Human King for the Three Sovereigns, and this candidate is currently undergoing the Three Sovereigns' test."
Once the test is passed, the Three Sovereigns will spare no effort in nurturing this new king, enabling him to lead humanity on the path to revival.
The key question is, if a new human ruler were to emerge in the human realm, would you still be considered the ruler of the Three Realms?
"Could this new king even be interested in your position?" the eldest prince said slowly.
The Heavenly Emperor's smile vanished, and he abruptly stood up: "Are you sure your information is accurate?"
"I'm sure there's no problem!" the eldest prince said decisively.
"I'll go to the Fire Cloud Cave myself and ask," the Heavenly Emperor replied, his body instantly disappearing from the spot.
The eldest prince's lips curled slightly, but the moment he turned around, his expression returned to solemnity.
world.
Buzhou Mountain.
The image of the Heavenly Emperor suddenly appeared in the sky, shining a divine mirror down at the mountains below, and indeed detected four imperial auras.
This shows that the claim of a first prince is not unfounded.
Inside the cave, the three emperors simultaneously sensed the divine mirror's detection. Fuxi said in a deep voice, "You continue the test, I'll go take a look."
"Be careful," Shennong warned.
Fuxi nodded slightly, his body swayed, and he appeared atop Mount Buzhou, asking in a loud voice, "What instructions does the Heavenly Emperor have?"
The Heavenly Emperor held up the divine mirror and said calmly, "Last night I had a dream in which the fourth emperor of the human race appeared."
I thought it was just a dream, but I've been feeling restless and irritable all day, so I came to check it out. To my surprise, there really is a fourth imperial aura inside the Fire Cloud Cave.
"Fuxi, are you trying to break the unspoken agreement between us?"
Fuxi frowned slightly: "Doesn't the Heavenly Emperor care about the lives of the human race?"
"Don't play dumb," the Heavenly Emperor said. "I don't care about the life or death of the human race, but I cannot tolerate the emergence of another human emperor."
Fuxi: "..."
What a barbaric robber mentality!
Seeing his silent demeanor, the Heavenly Emperor sighed softly, "Fuxi, have I not been magnanimous enough towards the human race? Otherwise, there should only be one so-called supreme ruler of the human race, but instead, there are three."
Fuxi asked, "And what do you mean?"
"Hand over that fourth person, and I will take him away," the Heavenly Emperor formally demanded.
Fuxi resolutely refused: "Impossible!"
The Heavenly Emperor's expression turned cold: "Are you planning a rebellion?"
“Of course not,” Fuxi said. “It’s just that since you don’t care about the life or death of the human race, we have no choice but to select a human king who will care about the life or death of the human race. This is the duty of us three sovereigns.”
"You want to choose a king? This is rebellion, this is utter treason."
The Heavenly Emperor roared, "Listen! There's no room for negotiation on this matter. I'm giving you three days to consider. If you don't hand over that fourth person after three days, don't blame me for showing no mercy!"
As soon as he finished speaking, his figure suddenly disappeared into the horizon.
Fuxi's heart sank slightly. After disappearing back into the cave, he looked up at Qin Yao and asked, "You heard everything?"
Qin Yao nodded: "Is there anything I can do?"
"Whether Zhang Bairen can pass the test or not, now is not the time to start a war with the Celestial Clan."
"Therefore, I need you to find a key figure within three days who can prevent war from starting," Fuxi said solemnly.
Qin Yao's heart stirred slightly: "The Queen Mother of the West?"
In the original story, the Queen Mother of the West was the strongest support for the male and female protagonists, helping Chang'e and Hou Yi escape danger time and time again. Unfortunately, she was a player in the game and did not have the power to change fate, so in the end, all her hard work was in vain.
Fuxi nodded and said, "That's right! If the Queen Mother of the West is willing to stand on our side, it will surely make the Heavenly Clan hesitate to act against us."
Qin Yao let out a soft breath: "I'll go right now!"
“I’ll go with you,” Chang’e said immediately.
Qin Yao waved his hand: "The future is uncertain, it's safer for you to stay in Fire Cloud Cave."
Chang'e paused slightly, but did not insist further: "Then you must be extremely careful, and prioritize your own safety above all else."
Qin Yao smiled and agreed, then asked Fuxi, "Senior, do you know where the Queen Mother of the West is now?"
“If nothing unexpected happens, it should be in the Western Kunlun Mountains,” Fuxi replied.
Qin Yao's body suddenly transformed into streaks of light and flew out of the cave: "I'll be right back!"
At this moment, Consort Luo suddenly spoke up: "Father, I should also go; in case the Queen Mother of the West doesn't trust him, or if he fails to persuade her, I can make another effort."
Chang'e glanced at her face and saw that she looked serious and earnest, as if she were acting out of a sense of public duty...
Fuxi thought for a moment, then took out a white Bagua plate and handed it to the other party: "Take the Bagua Dragon Horse with you. It can save your life in a critical moment."
Consort Luo accepted the Bagua plate with both hands and said from the bottom of her heart, "Thank you, Father."
"Silly child, go quickly," Fuxi said, shaking his head.
"Yes."
Consort Luo nodded, then suddenly flew out of the Fire Cloud Cave and sped towards the West Kunlun Mountains.
During this time, she repeatedly used her divine sense to search for Hou Yi's whereabouts, but unfortunately, she found nothing.
"boom!"
Suddenly, a streak of fire shot down from the sun, heading straight for Consort Luo.
Consort Luo was greatly alarmed and immediately gripped the Bagua compass, preparing to flee at any moment.
However, the flames did not strike her body; instead, they landed in front of her and quickly transformed into the appearance of the eldest prince.
"What do you want to do?" Consort Luo demanded.
The eldest prince smiled slightly: "I want to make a deal with you."
Consort Luo resolutely refused: "Wishful thinking!"
"Wait, let me explain the terms of the deal first," the eldest prince said calmly. "I can help you obtain Hou Yi, in exchange for one favor..."
"Even if I like Hou Yi, I will not cooperate with you!"
Consort Luo gave a sharp shout and immediately activated the Bagua Plate, summoning a Bagua Dragon Horse.
The eldest prince's expression turned slightly cold as he raised his hand to form a seal, sealing off space and time.
Consort Luo mounted her horse, but the dragon horse was completely beyond the control of the First Prince's laws, and carried her away instantly, breaking the seal and disappearing into the distance.
The eldest prince clenched his fists silently, his whole body trembling with anger.
That wretched maid, she doesn't know what's good for her!
She will regret it someday.
West Kunlun.
Yongcheng.
Led by a female immortal, Qin Yao passed through a thousand golden platforms and twelve jade towers, until he reached the Purple Jade Elixir Chamber, where he met the ancient goddess west Wangmu, who was dressed in a holy robe of radiant light, adorned with golden flower hair ornaments, and had the appearance of a middle-aged beauty...
"Hou Yi, the envoy of the Three Sovereigns, pays his respects to the Queen Mother of the West." Qin Yao bowed respectfully.
"Are you Hou Yi, the one who killed the Great Wind and other demons?" The Queen Mother of the West slowly rose from the celestial platform and asked with a smile.
Qin Yao silently lowered his arms and smiled in response, "It is indeed this junior."
"Indeed, he is outstanding and handsome," praised the Queen Mother of the West.
Qin Yao humbly replied, "You flatter me."
The Queen Mother of the West waved her hand and smiled, "What brings you here, Three Sovereigns?"
Qin Yao immediately became serious and said in a deep voice, "Another human emperor has appeared in the mortal world. The Heavenly Emperor is worried that the prosperity of humanity will suppress the Heavenly Clan, so he forcibly demands the other party and threatens war. I have been entrusted by the Three Sovereigns to ask the Queen Mother of the West to uphold justice and prevent this war from happening in the first place."
The Queen Mother of the West's smile faltered slightly. Her long experience in struggle made her instantly realize that this matter was not so simple, at least not as simple as the other party claimed:
"The Three Sovereigns, the Empress, and I, the six supreme immortals, have reached a delicate balance. Suddenly, there will be another human emperor in the world. No wonder the Heavenly Emperor feels threatened."
Qin Yao asked earnestly, "Are you aware of the current state of the human race?"
The Queen Mother of the West said, "I know... With the departure of the last human ruler, the Yellow Emperor, the human race is becoming increasingly weak."
"In short, this is just a sentence, a phenomenon. But within the human race, it means countless annihilations."
Qin Yao said seriously, "Due to the Heavenly Emperor's laissez-faire rule, demons and monsters rose up in the Great Wilderness and gradually began to treat humans as food."
Humanity often perishes village by village, crying out to heaven and earth in vain, leaving bones exposed in the wilderness, and not a rooster crowing for miles.
If this continues, the human race may face extinction.
The Queen Mother of the West's expression changed slightly, and she murmured the lines of poetry, "White bones exposed in the wild, no rooster crows for a thousand miles," as if a scene from the poem appeared before her eyes.
"If you don't believe me, please come with me to the Great Wilderness."
Qin Yao sincerely said, "There are heroes in the world, but heroes are only a minority. What is more common are scenes of villages being massacred and clans being wiped out."
I can't bear to look, but I'm willing to take you to see it.
"Queen Mother of the West, we are not rebelling; we simply want to find a way for humankind to survive."
The Queen Mother of the West exhaled softly: "I haven't left the mountain for a long time either. Today, I will accompany you to observe the world..."
Not long after.
Consort Luo arrived riding a dragon-horse. As she dismounted, she stored the horse inside the Bagua mirror and announced loudly, "Consort Luo, daughter of Fuxi, requests an audience with the Queen Mother of the West."
"The Queen Mother of the West has come down from the mountain." A voice suddenly came from the mountain.
Consort Luo hurriedly asked, "Where did you go?"
"They just left with Hou Yi, who claimed to be an envoy of the Three Sovereigns, and I don't know where they went."
Consort Luo: "..."
It's all that eldest prince's fault! If it weren't for his obstruction, the Eight Trigrams Dragon Horse would definitely have caught up!
three days later.
Emperor Jun, Xihe, the Ten Golden Crows, and 100,000 heavenly soldiers marched out of the heavenly realm, their chilling killing intent driving them straight towards Buzhou Mountain and Huoyun Cave, shaking the three realms and attracting countless eyes to watch.
In the blink of an eye, the army surrounded Buzhou Mountain from the white clouds. Countless heavenly soldiers, holding spears and halberds, stood at the edge of the clouds, looking down at the mountain below.
Fuxi and Shennong walked out of the cave side by side, looking up at the sky, their faces showing no fear.
"Fuxi, where is the person I asked for?"
Emperor Jun sat atop a golden divine chariot, looking down at the emperor with indifferent indifference.
“Kill the two of us, and you will see it,” Fuxi said with a flick of his wrist, summoning a long halberd.
Di Jun slowly rose to his feet, his powerful killing intent causing the heavens and earth to change color: "Don't force me."
Shennong summoned a divine cauldron, which protected the sky above Buzhou Mountain: "You brought so many people to be bandits, and you still say we forced you? Dijun, aren't you afraid of being ridiculed by the world?"
"It was you who deliberately provoked us first; it was you who insisted on breaking the fragile balance between the mortal and divine realms," Di Jun said. "Any god who could see this would understand me!" (End of Chapter)
