Primordial Era: The Great Celestial Venerable on the Road to Mythology

Chapter 63 The Descendant of Nuwa Who Violated Heavenly Laws

Yao Ji moved with incredible speed and arrived at her destination in no time.

Below is a verdant island surrounded by water, shrouded in mist and faintly shrouded by an array that isolates it from the outside world.

To mortals, that formation might seem like a divine technique, mysterious and unpredictable, but to Yao Ji, it was nothing more than a thin veil.

"A mere formation dares to block my way?" Yao Ji's lips curled slightly. Without any visible movement, her figure passed through the formation barrier silently, as if the formation did not exist at all.

She landed on the shore of a pond on the island.

The surrounding area is filled with peach trees, their blossoms in full bloom, a mix of pink and white, petals drifting down in the breeze, carpeting the ground. In the pond, lotus flowers stand gracefully, white, pink, and red, blooming in competition, the water crystal clear, a few koi swimming leisurely. The air is filled with a mystical atmosphere and the fragrance of flowers, creating a scene reminiscent of a celestial realm.

Yao Ji looked around and shook her head slightly.

Such scenery might seem like a paradise on earth to ordinary people, breathtakingly beautiful. But she came from the primordial wilderness and was accustomed to the grandeur of the Heavenly Court and the unpredictable mysteries of the Thirty-Three Heavens. Even a desolate place in the primordial wilderness possessed a desolate and ancient beauty that was far beyond what this world could compare to.

"It can barely be considered quiet and secluded." Yao Ji gave a rating that was neither high nor low.

Her gaze finally settled on the little girl swimming in the pond.

The girl appeared to be about fifteen or sixteen years old. Her long, jet-black hair clung wetly to her back, and her skin was as white as jade. She moved through the water like a nimble fish. Her features were exquisite, her eyebrows and eyes like a painting; even at such a young age, she already possessed a captivating beauty.

Yao Ji's eyes flashed with a mysterious light as she carefully probed with her divine sense.

"As expected—it is the bloodline of the Goddess Nuwa." Yao Ji murmured softly, a hint of surprise flashing in her eyes. "However, there seem to be some differences as well."

She could sense that the girl possessed the same bloodline power as the goddess Nuwa.

However, within that bloodline, there was something indescribable, like a shackle or a seal, firmly imprisoning the vast power of the bloodline, only revealing a tiny fraction of it.

"That's interesting." Yao Ji didn't conceal herself. In her view, no one in this world could harm her in the slightest, and there was no need to hide from those who were related to the Goddess Nuwa by blood. Her brother was the Heavenly Emperor, and even if the Goddess Nuwa herself came, she only needed to show some respect. Why should she hide?

"Who?"

The little girl in the pond instantly became alert and turned to look.

Upon seeing Yao Ji, she was slightly taken aback. This uninvited elder sister was so beautiful, with exquisite features, a noble and dignified air, and a faint starlight flowing around her, as if she were a fairy who had stepped out of a painting.

The little girl was stunned for a moment.

However, she was still somewhat wary. She suddenly slapped the water's surface, creating a curtain of water that blocked Yao Ji's view, and at the same time quickly cast a spell to put on her clothes.

Yao Ji looked at the water curtain and chuckled. This thin curtain was practically useless to her; it couldn't even block her gaze. However, she wasn't particularly interested in a little girl's body, so she shifted her gaze and began to admire the surrounding scenery.

After the little girl finished dressing and turned around, Yao Ji looked at her again.

Although the little girl found Yao Ji extremely beautiful and possessing an extraordinary aura, she remained somewhat wary. Standing by the pond, keeping a distance from Yao Ji, she timidly asked, "Who are you? Why are you on Fairy Spirit Island?"

Yao Ji smiled. She had already seen through everything about this girl—pure, kind, and naive, like a budding flower, untouched by the world.

"Little girl, relax. I mean no harm. I just came to take a look," Yao Ji said softly, her tone gentle.

She raised her hand and flipped it over, revealing a purple-veined peach in her palm. The peach was pink and white, exuding a rich fragrance and radiating a strong sense of life and spiritual energy; it was clearly no ordinary peach.

"This is for you." Yao Ji handed over the peach as a gesture of goodwill.

She had already begun to plan. Regardless of the girl's cultivation level or whether there were any hidden dangers in her bloodline, as long as she was brought back to the Primordial World, she would be a genuine "descendant of Nuwa." This bloodline couldn't be faked. If she could join the Heavenly Court, wouldn't that be tantamount to winning over the Goddess Nuwa?

That's a great achievement! Shouldn't her brother reward her handsomely?

Besides, even if this girl has no direct relationship with the goddess Nuwa, it won't cause her any loss.

For this little girl, the advantages are significant. Staying in this world not only means no hope of immortality but also means being trapped by love and having shackles in her bloodline—truly pitiful. In the primordial world, these shackles can definitely be broken.

She couldn't help but sigh, "Did this descendant of Nuwa break some heavenly law? It's so tragic! If the Goddess Nuwa knew about this, it's not impossible that she might, in her anger, create earth, fire, water, and wind in this world."

Although the little girl didn't know what the purple-striped peach was, the overwhelming fragrance and the rich, almost tangible, life force were undeniable.

She subconsciously swallowed, her body's instincts driving her to reach out and take the peach.

When she came to her senses, she realized she had accepted something from a stranger. Feeling a little embarrassed, she quickly thanked her, "Thank you—sister."

Yao Ji couldn't help but smile at the little girl's shy expression. She reached out and patted the girl's head, saying softly, "Little girl, don't be shy. I have plenty of this, please help yourself."

Her tone and manner made it seem as if the Peach Garden belonged to her. Well, upon closer inspection, the Peach Garden really does belong to her. The Peach Garden naturally belongs to the Heavenly Court; her brother is the Heavenly Emperor, and she is the eldest princess. Saying it's "hers" isn't an exaggeration.

"Girl, what's your name?" Yao Ji asked.

"Sister, my name is Zhao Ling'er!" The little girl looked up, her eyes full of curiosity. "Where's your sister? How did you come to Fairy Spirit Island?"

She was filled with curiosity about this beautiful woman who had suddenly appeared. The island was protected by a powerful array, making it impossible for ordinary people to enter. However, this woman was clearly no ordinary person.

"My elder sister's name is Yao Ji, and she is the eldest princess of the Heavenly Court," Yao Ji said with a smile. "I was just strolling around when I ended up here. It seems we are quite destined to meet."

"The Heavenly Court?" Zhao Ling'er blinked, her face full of confusion. She had never heard of this name before.

"Yes, the Heavenly Court. But not the Heavenly Court of this world, but the Heavenly Court of another world." A hint of pride flashed in Yao Ji's eyes. "As the seat of order in heaven and earth, the Heavenly Court suppresses the Three Realms and Six Paths, and commands all laws and paths of the heavens. And I, as the younger sister of the Heavenly Emperor, am the eldest princess of the Heavenly Court—the third-in-command!"

She spoke with such confidence and conviction that, although she had given herself the title of "third in command," it certainly sounded very authoritative.

Although Zhao Ling'er didn't quite understand these things, she still obediently cooperated, took a bite of the fragrant peach in her hand, and praised, "Sister is really amazing."

Yao Ji was feeling smug when her gaze fell on Zhao Ling'er eating the peaches, and suddenly she frowned.

Logically speaking, if an ordinary person eats this purple-striped peach, they should at least be reborn and live a long life, if not become an immortal on the spot.

But after Zhao Ling'er finished eating, apart from emitting a little spiritual energy, she didn't change at all. It was as if the spiritual energy of the peach had been absorbed by something within her body and disappeared silently.

Yao Ji was secretly surprised.

However, she didn't care too much. As long as she could trick this little girl back to the prehistoric world, not to mention this small problem, even the biggest trouble could be easily solved.

"Ling'er," Yao Ji leaned closer and asked with a smile, "would you like to go with your sister to an even more fun place? There are endless peaches to eat, countless beautiful sights to see, and lots and lots of friends just like you—"

Zhao Ling'er blinked, seemingly tempted but also hesitant.
