Eating bizarre things in public upgrades my status; the Special Affairs Bureau wants me to join them

The Lingshan Ten Witches who traveled across time and returned to this era with He Li and the others were naturally referring to Witch Peng; his current situation, now occupying Yu Qi's body, is uncertain.

Because of the legend of Emperor Wang...

When Emperor Wang descended from the sky, He Li suspected that this referred to Yu Qi's body coming to the present era.

And before meeting Nuwa...

He Li only leans towards this guess.

Because he hadn't seen the other person in person and hadn't verified the accuracy of his guess, He Li was inclined to believe this guess rather than confirming it.

But after seeing the goddess Nuwa...

He Li is now almost certain that Yu Qi's body has traveled through time to this era.

According to what Nuwa said before, people in later generations would have little influence on the course of history.

Even if the body travels across time...

But we are still caught in the "game".

Our actions, those behaviors we believe can change history, may very well lead to the very historical events that are bound to happen in the future.

The reason why this is the case...

This is because we cannot, like the cycle of life and death, transcend the river of time and look down upon the entire timeline.

What we see is only a short period of history, and we cannot see the real results, so it is naturally impossible to change them easily. That is why He Li doubts that he has really guessed correctly.

After all, if Yu Qi's body doesn't come...

The history of Emperor Wang will no longer exist.

His body did not come across the future, which would change the future and make it unpredictable for posterity; only if his body came along could the already determined history continue to develop.

But now there's a problem...

Yu Qi is Yu Qi, while Wang Di is Du Yu.

There's no reason for Yu Qi to suddenly change his name, unless... even if Yu Qi has broken free from Wu Peng's control...

However, for unknown reasons, the current Yu Qi is no longer the Yu Qi that He Li, Yu Qingge and others knew before, but a strange Yu Qi.

He abandoned his past...

He also abandoned his own name and changed it to Du Yu, thus allowing the confirmed history to develop.

After all, Yu Qi's body has traveled through time, and who knows what kind of impact it might have, plus the fact that his mind contains not only his own consciousness but also Wu Peng's consciousness...

Given his situation...

The probability of something going wrong is not small.

Of course, aside from the possibility that Yu Qi himself had health problems and thus abandoned his name...

Another possibility is that Wu Peng, after arriving in this era, might have developed the idea of ​​changing the future and did something to Yu Qi that led to this result.

He Li had thought of this, which is why he mentioned Wu Peng to Wa, wanting to see what she would do.

And when Wa heard He Li's words...

She calmly replied, "If you can't change the future, it means he hasn't accomplished anything."

"So, you don't need to worry about it too much."

"However... I will communicate with Wu Peng."

"They are ultimately related to me!"

He Li nodded upon hearing this: "That would be best!"

Nuwa personally communicated with Wu Peng, and no matter how Wu Peng reacted, the problem should be resolved smoothly, since the future has already been confirmed, just as Nuwa said.

Wu Peng was caught up in it and could not change it.

Now that Wu Peng's matter has been addressed by Wa, He Li no longer asks further questions and only mentions Yu Qi's matter...

"Also... Yu Qi..."

"Is he really Emperor Wangdi?"

He Li looked on with curiosity.

"Perhaps!" Wa replied, "I once observed beings that did not belong to this era falling from the sky. At that time, you had not yet found me, nor had you yet read the information of the future."

"So at that time I couldn't be sure about his situation, but now I think it must have been Yu Qi."

"But is he really Emperor Wangdi...?"

"All I can say is... that he is more likely to be Emperor Du Yu."

As expected, He Li was not surprised.

The historical Emperor Wang is too mysterious.

Or perhaps the records are too few, so their understanding of later generations is also very limited, and since Nuwa read their information, she wouldn't know much about Emperor Wang either.

However, Wa's words at least confirm that Yu Qi's body did indeed travel through time to this era.

As long as these match, it's fine.

As for the rest, let time do its work!

Having thought this through, He Li, having no further questions, stopped pursuing these matters and only asked curiously, "You said before that you could communicate with the Heavenly Dao of this era, but have you succeeded in doing so?"

"No!" Nuwa uttered two words.

He then said, "Not that fast."

"Even if we were to establish communication, we are already aware of many of the issues that will arise in future generations."

"Communicating with the Heavenly Dao isn't very meaningful. At most, I can only learn more details through the Heavenly Dao, such as what kind of power the birth of the new law will generate..."

At this point, she seemed to have lost interest in continuing her casual conversation with He Li and instead asked him a question...

"Is there anything else?"

"If not, then you may leave!"

"I think you still have a lot to do."

She started telling them to leave.

Upon hearing this, He Li opened his mouth as if to say something, but before he could utter a word, Nuwa moved...

hum! ! !

Wa waved her hand slightly, and instantly, the surrounding scenery rushed backward, causing the colors and light to become distorted, and He Li's consciousness also experienced a brief dizziness.

When he regained consciousness, a gentle breeze caressed his face, and Yu Ji and the others reappeared in his field of vision...

However, Yu Ji and the others were still intimidated by the terrifying pressure from Wa, as if He Li's long communication with Wa had only lasted for a moment.

And they didn't notice anything unusual.

It wasn't until He Li regained consciousness, and the illusory image of Nuwa that had been so close to them and looked down at them, rose again and returned to the clouds, that everyone recovered from their palpable fear.

At the same time, Nuwa's voice rang out again...

"Let's go to where the sacred tree is rooted!"

"There, there are still things you haven't finished!"

"Also... Feng Lixi and Li Shang, please stay!"

Huh? He Li was stunned when he heard this voice; Feng Lixi left him without thinking there was anything wrong.

After all, Feng Lixi is a celestial being and is related to Nuwa. It is very likely that they are believers or apostles. But Li Shang has no connection with Nuwa, so why should she stay?

Could it be...

A glint of light flickered in He Li's eyes.

But he did not ask or object; he simply turned to look at Li Shang, who appeared somewhat fearful and uneasy.

"Then you can stay here for now."

"We'll come back to find you and Jiang Hongxian after we've finished taking care of our other things!"

Then he comforted her, "Don't worry, Wa is a top-tier deity and won't do anything to you. If she has any bad intentions, we won't have a chance to resist."

"So, this should be your opportunity."

"I understand!" Li Shang nodded in response after his tense mood relaxed slightly.

He Li then looked up at Nuwa...

"Now that things are over here..."

"Then we'll be going now."

"But don't you have anything else to say?"

Upon hearing He Li's words, Wa's eyes, which were faintly visible in the clouds, closed again and replied, "No, it's just...aren't you curious about my purpose in keeping Li Shang here?"

"Curious?" He Li pursed his lips.

"You're just curious, so you'll tell me? Even if you do, you'll probably only mention the unimportant things, right?"

Upon hearing this, Nuwa fell silent for two seconds.

Then her voice rang out...

"Future generations will need a special kind of person!"

She continued talking to herself, while He Li frowned.

"Special people?" He didn't understand, so Wa continued, "People like the shamans and priests of this era, people who possess the ability to sense heaven and earth, to communicate with heaven and earth, and who exist between humans and gods..."

"Such a group will become a bridge for direct communication between all living beings and God, and between all living beings and the world."

"They are indispensable!"

"In later generations, such groups have become extinct."

"And she... must inherit the legacy!"

"And, it has to be her!"

A wizard? He Li nodded.

The future Heavenly Way is planning to learn from the lessons of this era and build a flawless new era. What such an era will be like and what problems it will encounter are still uncertain.

Even if there are three great emperors who live in harmony with the heavens in the future, there will be no immortals or gods in the world.

And those sorcerers, priests...

Those special groups who possess near-divine abilities yet live as long as humans and whose return to the Dao will not affect their destiny will be indispensable to future generations and the new era.

But as Nuwa said, the related history and information have been completely lost to later generations.

So among these people...

Someone must be here to receive the inheritance.

Only by bringing this legacy back can we make the new era of future generations more perfect.

As for Wa saying it must be Li Shang?

She explained the reason very clearly: it was because Li Shang had the ability to sense the heavens and the earth, and this ability was almost identical to that of the priests of this era who communicated with the gods of heaven and earth!
