Primordial Era: I really don't want to be the Heavenly Emperor!

Chapter 291 Xuan Tian, ​​First Blood?

A vast, boundless expanse of chaos; everything seems both right before my eyes and yet endlessly distant.

Because chaos has no time and no space, it has no direction, meaning there is no reference point, and what you see may not be real.

But as Donghua drew closer to this small world before him, a long-dormant heart began to beat uncontrollably, and an invisible light emanated from his body.

This is the origin of Donghua as a primordial deity, the primordial pure yang and primordial wood energy.

Donghua stood before the small world, paused for a moment, and then pointed a finger. In an instant, chaos churned and the small world trembled violently.

The twelve banners of the Heavenly Capital ceased their operation, and the chaotic energy began to wash over the small world.

With a wave of his hand, Donghua unleashed the Primordial Chaos Power, which surged within the chaos and instantly formed a protective shield around the small world, preventing the erosion of the chaotic energy.

The moment the formation disappeared, Donghua felt a familiar aura surge into his senses.

Blood is thicker than water!

That's my own scent!

Donghua stepped into the world, and Houtu followed closely behind.

Within the small world, the innate spiritual energy was abundant, but it appeared very monotonous. Even the power of the Great Dao was weak, containing only the few Great Dao laws familiar to Houtu, such as spacetime, earth, and reincarnation, as well as the foundation of the small world: Yin and Yang and the Five Elements.

The remaining laws and principles are almost invisible, which is why the world feels so thin.

But Donghua didn't care about any of that and flew directly to a large hall.

In the square in front of the main hall, a child of about eight years old was practicing fighting techniques, holding a dark gold divine axe in his hand. His opponent was none other than the Great Witch Jiufeng.

With a single glance, Donghua's divine eye instantly discerned the child's condition: he possessed the bloodline of the Witch Clan, as well as his own innate divine power. His true form was that of an innate deity, accompanied by the paths of time and space, and also the paths of earthly reincarnation.

Truly outstanding qualifications!

The main reason is that this child not only inherited the Great Dao of himself and Houtu, but also the innate physique of the Wu Clan. As his cultivation level increases, his physical body will become stronger and stronger.

If we only consider qualifications, he is better than me!

"bump!"

A soft sound interrupted Donghua's thoughts as Jiufeng knocked the dark gold axe from the child's hand to the ground.

A deep voice sounded: "Sister Jiufeng, am I really that bad?"

The child's eyes were filled with disappointment, disappointment in himself.

Jiufeng gently stroked the child's long hair and said softly, "Xiaotian is so amazing, how could he be bad? Do you think you can surpass your sister just by relying on these few years of cultivation? How could your sister bear that?"

The child said haltingly, "But, but Mother hasn't come to see me for a long time, and she told me that I can only see Father when I am strong enough."

"I've been cultivating very hard, but my progress is very slow. I haven't broken through to Taiyi yet. When will I be able to reach the Quasi-Saint realm? I want to go find my mother and father myself."

Jiufeng stroked the child tenderly, sometimes wondering if the birth of this child was a right or wrong decision.

Other children are born amidst their parents' love, but this child was born into a world of calculation, born with the hope of the Wu tribe's resurgence and inheriting all the aspirations of the ancestral witch Houtu.

These responsibilities would be a headache even if they fell on the children in front of them, let alone the children in front of them. The situation of the Wu Clan is very bad right now.

The main problem is that Donghua already has his own Daoist partner and child. To put it bluntly, this child is just an illegitimate child. If Donghua is unwilling to acknowledge it, he will definitely be ridiculed by others.

Upon hearing the child's words, Donghua could no longer hold back. He glared fiercely at Houtu beside him, said nothing, and flew to the ground, walking directly to the child.

Seeing Donghua suddenly appear, Jiufeng exclaimed in surprise, "Great, Great, Great Heavenly Venerable, you..."

Before Jiu Feng could stammer out her words, Dong Hua squatted down to be level with the child in front of him, and all his eyes fell on the child.

"What's your name?"

"My name is Xuan Tian."

Who named you?

"Mother."

Do you recognize me?

After Donghua asked the question, he could feel Xuantian's body tremble slightly and he subconsciously lowered his head.

But then she resolutely raised her head, looked directly at Donghua, and said in a soft voice, "You are my father!"

"Um!"

Donghua gave a soft "hmm" and didn't say anything more, nor did he know what to say. He felt a deep sense of guilt towards Xuantian in front of him, and then picked Xuantian up and held him tightly in his arms.

"I am your father, Donghua!"

"Father?"

"Um!"

"Father."

"Um!"

"Father, Father, Father!"

"Mmm, mmm, mmm."

……

In a valley filled with birdsong and fragrant flowers, divine herbs and immortal plants abound, and the world is permeated with the essence of Taoism.

With Donghua's arrival, this small world also changed. Mainly because Houtu did not cultivate the Three Thousand Great Daos, it was difficult to make a world completely perfect, so Donghua made up for it.

Donghua, holding Xuantian's hand, with Houtu beside them, strolled through the valley, admiring the beautiful scenery before them. The two of them seemed to be ordinary people, not Hunyuan.

After Donghua and Xuantian recognized each other, Donghua always played the role of a father, taking him on trips and letting Xuantian experience what fatherly love is.

"Father, Mother, look! Those butterflies are so beautiful!"

Xuan Tian shouted loudly, broke free from Dong Hua's grasp, and flew to catch the butterflies. It was the bright and carefree stage of childhood, but the butterflies were pitiful.

Although Xuan Tian is small, his cultivation level is undeniable; he is a peak Golden Immortal with a physical Golden Immortal body.

Those ordinary butterflies, none of which had ever cultivated, couldn't withstand Xuan Tian's grasp; they were simply pulverized.

Donghua smiled, waved his hand, and a beam of light entered the bodies of the butterflies. The dead butterflies were resurrected, and the living butterflies were protected by a golden light, so that they would not die no matter how Xuantian touched them.

Houtu saw this and smiled, then chided, "You just spoil him!"

"Tch, my son, if I don't love him, who will?" Donghua said dismissively.

The root cause is actually guilt—guilt towards the child and guilt towards the responsibilities he will have to bear in the future.

He also had a son named Xuanming, but although he loved Xuanming dearly, he did not allow him to act recklessly.

Being the King of the Underworld is no easy task!

If you want to wear a crown, you must bear its weight!

Even if he is Donghua's son, he is no exception.

The two chatted as they walked, making it a conversation free of self-interest and calculation.

"I'm leaving, but I'll take Xuan Tian with me. You are not only the Lord of Reincarnation, but also the Earth Mother Heavenly Venerable of my Heavenly Court. You can come to the Heavenly Court to see him anytime!" Donghua thought for a moment and then made his request.

Houtu remained silent; she had already guessed the request, and her heart was filled with both joy and sorrow.

The good news is that the child's identity has been settled, and Donghua is willing to bring him into the light.

What troubled her was that she didn't want Xuan Tian to be taken away. The birth of this child had destined his future; he could only be a human being.

"Don't worry, I'm taking him away to broaden his horizons. The Heavenly Court now commands the Three Realms, so he can experience that atmosphere and develop the heart of an emperor. He will also be the future Emperor of the Underworld, the Great Emperor of Fengdu who is in charge of the Underworld, the Netherworld, and Reincarnation." Donghua explained his plan.

Houtu was stunned for a moment after hearing this. She did not know that Donghua had such a plan in mind. She only knew that the Zhongtian Wansheng Emperor, the head of the Six Emperors, was left by Donghua to Xuanming.

Although Donghua didn't say it aloud, anyone with common sense knew that the position belonged to Xuanming. Who else would dare to sit in that position, lest they be killed by Donghua's sword?

It should be noted that even Fuxi was only appointed as the Great Emperor of the Western Pole by Donghua. In terms of status, he was ranked third among the Six Emperors, because the second was Houtu, the Great Emperor of Reincarnation.

Of course, with Houtu attaining enlightenment and becoming a Primordial Being, this position was merely nominal; how could she possibly serve as one of the Six Emperors with her dignified Primordial Being status?

Even Donghua wouldn't dare to do that, as it would not only be disrespectful to Houtu, but also to Hunyuan and Didao.

It should be noted that Houtu is the ruler of the Earthly Dao, and in terms of status, she is no less than Donghua. In fact, one day, when the Earthly Dao truly becomes powerful, she might even dare to address Hongjun as "Fellow Daoist!"

"Thank you, Donghua." Houtu's bright eyes seemed to gleam with light as she stared at Donghua and said.

Donghua shook his head and said nothing, mainly because he didn't know how to view Houtu's identity now.

ally?

Fellow?

The child's mother?

Or perhaps a Daoist partner?

I don't know, I don't know, Donghua can only pretend to be ignorant!

Seeing that Donghua did not speak, Houtu waved her hand and released a beam of light, quickly turning the valley into a separate space that isolated everything, including Xuantian.

"Whoosh!" "Thump!"

It sounded like something had fallen to the ground, or perhaps it was the sound of clothes hitting the floor.

"Was I raped?"

A beautiful Taoist chant echoed through the tranquil valley, as the Great Dao of Yin and Yang traversed the mountain range.

At this moment, all things come into being!

Countless beings have been born as a result, and countless creatures have been given intelligence.

A fierce battle broke out, a brutal fight that lasted for an unknown period of time, with screams echoing throughout.

In the end, this battle ended after the deaths of hundreds of millions of people!

……

Outside the Jade Pool of Heaven, Donghua wandered around with Xuantian. Although he had brought Xuantian back to Heaven, he did not know how to face the Queen Mother of the West.

Although he had practiced dual cultivation before, it was only for the sake of cultivating the Great Dao; for them, it was merely a method of cultivation.

But this time it really won't work!

Let alone Houtu forcing herself on him, even if he didn't want to, could Houtu force herself on him?

His heart could no longer find peace!

But he knew that he would have to face the Queen Mother of the West sooner or later.

"Father, where is this? Why don't we go in?"

Donghua gently patted Xuantian's shoulder and said, "This is my home, and it will be your home from now on."

After Donghua finished speaking, he led Xuantian inside. They had to face it sooner or later, so what was there to hesitate about?

"I thought you were too scared to come in!" As soon as Donghua entered, he saw that there was only the Queen Mother of the West in the Jade Pool, tending to the divine flowers and herbs.

Donghua smiled but didn't answer the question. Instead, he pushed Xuantian forward and said, "His name is Xuantian, my son."

The Queen Mother of the West stopped what she was doing and didn't say anything, as if she wasn't surprised at all.

However, it's understandable. Donghua didn't hide anything when he came, and anyone with eyes could see that the relationship between the two was obvious.

Moreover, this is Yaochi, the sacred site of the Queen Mother of the West.

The Queen Mother of the West took Xuan Tian, ​​stroked him gently, and said softly, "From now on, call me Your Majesty, or Aunt."

Xuan Tian seemed to know all this as well, and said in a clear voice, "Are you the Queen Mother of the West? You are so beautiful, hello Auntie."

The Queen Mother of the West gently flicked Xuan Tian's forehead and praised him, "Hmm, so clever. Go find your sister to play with; she's over at Tianchi. Qingniao, you take Xuan Tian to find Qiong'er to play with."

Xuan Tian hesitated for a moment, then looked at Dong Hua.

Donghua nodded slightly and then followed Qingniao out.

"Brother, your abilities are getting better and better. You even had a child without my knowledge. Will I have to give up my position as Empress one day?" After Xuan Tian left, the Queen Mother of the West's face instantly turned cold, and she didn't give Dong Hua a kind look.

However, it's understandable. No one could accept this situation calmly, especially since the Queen Mother of the West was a powerful and influential figure in the prehistoric world. As the head of all female immortals, she also had to save face.

Donghua awkwardly reached out his hand, wanting to shake west Wangmu's hand, but west Wangmu slapped it away.

"Junior sister, please listen to me, this is what happened..."

After Donghua explained the whole story, west Wangmu finally understood what had happened.

However, to Donghua's surprise, the Queen Mother of the West not only did not forgive him, but became even angrier.

"How should we appease her?"

Donghua didn't know what to say. In both of his lives, he had never encountered anything like this.

Seeing that Donghua was speechless, the Queen Mother of the West said angrily, "Am I angry with Xuantian?"

"What angers me is that you know those people have ill intentions, that they are all people who have lived for countless eons, and that their scheming is deeper than the sea, yet you still choose to associate with them. Do you think you can outsmart them?"

Donghua was stunned for a moment. He hadn't expected the Queen Mother of the West to be thinking about these things. However, it seemed that he always suffered losses at the hands of Houtu and Nuwa.

It's hard to tell whether it was the two people's cunning or this was his downfall!

Donghua sighed and said softly, "No matter the outcome, the person I love will always be you, Junior Sister. Even with Xuantian as a child, my relationship with Houtu will not take any further steps."

The Queen Mother of the West snorted coldly and said, "I think you should take it a step further. She is now the Lord of Reincarnation, the Lord of the Earthly Dao, and the Supreme Being of Primordial Chaos. How can I, a quasi-saint, compare to her?"

Seeing that the Queen Mother of the West was still angry, Donghua went forward, picked her up, and stepped into the main hall.

Since verbal coaxing doesn't work, try actions instead, though it might strain your back.

All I can say is that Houtu is incredibly resilient!

As expected of an ancestral witch!
