Chapter 709 Laozi's Test of Nuwa
"Of course not, we are here simply to congratulate." Kong Asan shook his head and explained Nuwa's suspicion.
Not only that, he also took out an exquisite wooden box from his robe and handed it to Nuwa.
"This is a small token of my appreciation from the Underworld. I hope that Lady Nuwa will accept it. After all, the Underworld still hopes to have a good relationship with me, the Saint."
After hearing what Kong Asan said, Nuwa, who had been suspicious that the underworld had other plans, temporarily put her mind at ease.
If the underworld really wanted to do something, it would definitely not choose this time to create something that could be exposed at a glance.
“You’re welcome.” Nuwa accepted the gift from Kong Asan without being humble or arrogant.
"And Great Sage, I admire you very much!" Kong Asan changed the subject and turned to Sun Wukong.
He said that he admired Sun Wukong very much, but the pauses between his words sounded like he was gritting his teeth.
Sun Wukong knew why the other party was so irritated, so he said, "Do you want me to sign for you? The Great Sage's signature isn't something anyone can get."
The Queen Mother of the West looked at Sun Wukong with some surprise, as his behavior was different from usual. She was about to say something, but finally chose to keep quiet.
Although she didn't understand, she believed that Sun Wukong must have his reasons for doing so, so she decided not to hold him back.
Kong Asan gritted his teeth, and in the midst of the calmness, he seemed to say something terrifying:
"Haha, Great Sage, you're so polite. No need for an autograph!"
"What if one day I stop being a fan and turn against you and curse you with your signature? Wouldn't that be a loss for the Great Sage?"
This inexplicable smell of gunpowder made it difficult for everyone present to ignore it.
Nuwa secretly tensed up her nerves and signaled to Sun Wukong: Are you in trouble? Do you need my help?
The Queen Mother of the West secretly grasped Sun Wukong's hand and asked him whether he wanted to beat this rude guy out.
Sun Wukong laughed and tried to smooth things over: "Haha, it was just a joke. Brother in black robe, you're really going to scare everyone else. The underworld shouldn't be so stupid as to directly confront Jin'ao Island."
Kong Asan shrugged. He didn't want to make things too rigid.
After seeing enough of the excitement and confirming that the saint was indeed Nuwa, Kong Asan no longer had any need to stay here.
He nodded to Nuwa, expressed some regret, and then took the initiative to say that there were many things to do in the underworld, so he would not stay any longer.
Nuwa naturally would not try to keep him, and the Lord of the Underworld who suddenly appeared naturally watched Kong Asan leave in a friendly manner.
As for whether Kong Asan will go back to the underworld directly or run away again after leaving, probably only Kong Asan himself knows.
……
After Kong Asan and Dijiang left, the smile on her face was replaced by solemnity.
Queen Mother of the West thought Nuwa was angry because of Kong Asan's previous rudeness, so she spoke to comfort him:
"Sister Nuwa, don't be angry. Although that guy was a bit unreasonable, my husband is right. The underworld probably doesn't want to confront Jin'ao Island head-on, so it was just a joke..."
Although, this joke is not funny at all.
Hearing what Queen Mother of the West said, Nuwa shook her head. This was not what she was worried about.
Sun Wukong, who was standing next to him, noticed something and spoke hesitantly, "Is it because of the guy next to the black-robed brother? He seems to have a history with you, Madam."
Sun Wukong, pretending not to know Dijiang, looked at Nuwa with concern.
Nuwa said, "That's right... If everything goes as expected, that person is probably Dijiang, one of the Twelve Witch Ancestors."
The Queen Mother of the West muttered to herself, "What? He's actually... I've heard for a long time that a powerful warrior has arrived from the underworld. His name coincides with that of one of the Twelve Ancestral Witches. I thought it was a coincidence, but I didn't expect it to be me..."
Nuwa's frown deepened. "Although I don't know how he resurrected, I'm afraid his resurrection will bring new crises to the prehistoric world."
Sun Wukong was quite relieved. He stroked his chin and said thoughtfully, "Don't worry about that. After all, the new Lord of Heaven is his old rival! At worst, it's just a repeat of the war between the witches and the liches."
Just as she had recovered from the news that Dijiang had been resurrected in the underworld, Nuwa heard another piece of news that made her feel at a loss.
What does that mean? Does it mean that the current Heavenly Palace has also changed its owner, and it is also a demon clan?
The Queen Mother of the West nodded, agreeing with what Sun Wukong said: "That's true."
"After all, the Heavenly Court headed by Donghuang Taiyi and Dijun and the Twelve Witch Ancestors are old rivals."
"Even if all the remaining witch ancestors were resurrected, the best outcome would be a draw."
Sun Wukong smiled but said nothing.
With him around, there will never be a fight between the underworld and heaven.
If you really want to fight, go to Chaos!
Anyway, there are many challenges in the chaos. Whether it is to hone combat skills or to take risks to explore more resources, it is a very good choice.
Nuwa had no idea what Sun Wukong was thinking.
After hearing the conversation between Queen Mother of the West and Sun Wukong.
She now has only one thought in her mind.
That is to let the two people in front of her give her a brief introduction to the major events that have occurred in the prehistoric world recently as soon as possible.
She felt that she could not keep up with the speed at which the prehistoric events were updated.
Sun Wukong naturally didn't think there was anything wrong with it.
However, just after he finished telling Nuwa about several major events that had happened recently in the prehistoric world, Tongtian came here with Laozi.
Yuanshi, who had also sensed that a cultivator had been promoted to a saint, was also coming.
But who made Hongjun restless with him?
Yuanshi couldn't tie Hongjun up and carry him with him, nor could he leave Hongjun in his Yuxu Palace, because his disciples could not withstand Hongjun.
In desperation, he could only ask the White Crane Boy to convey his congratulations to the new saint.
After Tongtian took out the congratulatory gifts from himself and Yuanshi, he stopped bothering Nuwa. He told Nuwa not to worry and not to leave Jin'ao Island so soon.
Anyway, Jin'ao Island has been empty for a long time since the defeat. There is plenty of land, so as long as Nuwa wants to live there, she can stay as long as she wants.
In comparison, Lao Tzu was relatively more "concerned" about Nuwa.
Not only did they try to test, openly and covertly, how Nuwa could achieve Hunyuan Daluo so quickly, but also whether she had used some unknown secret method or strange magic weapon.
He even proposed to discuss Taoism with Nuwa so that they could help each other.
Although Laozi said this in a very tactful and beautiful way, Nuwa still heard the hidden meaning in his words.
