The girl lying in front of him was covered by a white light from Junior Deity of Lifespan.
She only needed to go to the Heavenly Palace later, and she would be given the position of a small god to travel the world.
Wu Wang didn't want to comment on this too much. When he got up, he bowed to the front and nodded to Junior Deity of Lifespan with a complicated look. Then he turned around and walked towards the edge of the crab's back.
At this moment, he couldn't say anything, couldn't have any anxiety, couldn't have any hesitation.
Everything appeared calm and indifferent, as if it should have been like this.
Junior Deity of Lifespan floated forward half a foot, then immediately stopped, wanting to call Wu Wang back but hesitated.
He won the bet, so he should be allowed to leave.
Hmph, although it was out of pity that she made the bet with him.
Wu Wang walked dozens of steps, took out an ordinary immortal treasure-level sword and threw it in front of him. He stepped on it steadily with both feet and pushed the sword forward, flying towards the edge of the sky.
At this moment, Wu Wang was using pure Ascending to Immortality cultivation base, hiding his divine sense, physical strength, and bloodline power.
Although he was flying relatively slowly, he had to treat himself as an ordinary Ascending to Immortality cultivator.
Junior Deity of Lifespan supported her hands in the air, and the witch of the Rain Master's country floated beside her, still covered in the green clothes.
The giant crab figure turned into a translucent state and slowly sank from the sea surface, quickly returning to its original size of hundreds of miles on its back, and slowly walked north from the bottom of the sea.
It was as if what happened here had nothing to do with it.
In the world, all eyes fell on Wu Wang.
Even though they were thousands of miles away, the experts in the Human Realm were really worried for Wu Wang.
But at this moment, they also sensed the "subtlety" of Wu Wang's situation and dared not break this subtlety.
Finally, Wu Wang was about to fly out of the position on the crab's back...
Buzz!
The sound of breaking through the air came, and Wu Wang's mouth twitched slightly. His figure stopped in mid-air, standing with his hands behind his back.
Two golden-armored divine guards blocked his way, and under their helmets were bird faces covered with black feathers. Their bird eyes were sharp, and their three-zhang tall bodies emitted a strong and fierce aura.
There was a saying in the Great Wasteland: "Many birds in the Yang Valley, birds are fierce but don't talk much."
It was referring to them.
"Stop!"
"This path is blocked!"
Wu Wang nodded slightly, and three options quickly appeared in his mind.
Option A: Use exaggerated acting skills to criticize the Heavenly Palace for going back on their word and fight for a way to leave.
Option B: Calmly tell the story of the bet just now and remind Junior Deity of Lifespan to follow the agreement.
Option C: Turn around and ask Junior Deity of Lifespan if he can leave, emphasizing that he is just an Ascending to Immortality cultivator, and continue to give the other party the illusion of "if you kill me, you will lose face".
Wu Wang carefully considered and compared the options, and quickly chose...
The fourth option.
He turned around, with a hint of curiosity in his eyes, looking at Junior Deity of Lifespan standing quietly in the air, emitting a soft light. He asked softly, "Can't you speak in the Heavenly Palace?"
Junior Deity of Lifespan said calmly, "Let him go."
The two golden crow divine guards immediately bowed their heads and prepared to disperse.
"Sir!"
The divine guard with the strongest aura jumped in front of Junior Deity of Lifespan and bowed with his fists, saying, "This person can attract so many experts from the Human Realm to come to rescue him. His status is not to be underestimated. Please think twice, my lord! Don't let him leave easily!"
Junior Deity of Lifespan's face, which was originally a little annoyed, suddenly showed a hint of smile.
She chuckled lightly and said calmly, "Repeat it."
The leading divine guard suddenly realized that he had said the wrong thing and immediately knelt down in mid-air, "My lord! I was just reminding you and dare not give orders to you!"
A grass-green light flashed in Junior Deity of Lifespan's eyes, and a green light flew out of the leading divine guard's body.
The green light contained an indescribable vitality, which quickly spread in the sea water after falling into the sea.
The face of the leading divine guard turned pale, and he knelt down and kept kowtowing, not daring to say a word.
"There is no need for your bloodline to continue in this world."
Junior Deity of Lifespan said calmly, looking at Wu Wang.
The two divine guards who had stopped Wu Wang trembled and quickly dodged left and right, not daring to lift their heads or breathe, for fear of inviting such punishment.
Wu Wang curiously glanced at the figure of the leading divine guard who kept kowtowing, bowed to Junior Deity of Lifespan, and turned and flew leisurely towards the south.
The speed was neither fast nor slow.
What did Junior Deity of Lifespan mean just now?
The bloodline didn't need to continue... but the divine guard didn't suddenly die, and there was the strong vitality just now...
Uh.
Wu Wang's forehead was covered in black lines, and his legs instinctively tightened, and his speed in flying increased.
Junior Deity of Lifespan, in charge of the reproduction of living beings.
Was she depriving the leading divine guard of his reproductive rights?
Can't afford to provoke, can't afford to provoke, hurry up and leave.
"Hmph."
Junior Deity of Lifespan left a cold snort on the sea and bowed slightly to the chariot in the sky.
A ladder leading to the sky appeared behind her, and she turned and climbed up the steps. Her figure was elegant and calm, seemingly slow but actually fast. In the blink of an eye, she reached the sky and disappeared into the clouds.
The group of golden crow divine guards immediately headed towards the Yang Valley, and the extravagant corpse and the colorful bird quickly disappeared.
In the sky, the goddess on the divine chariot looked at Wu Wang's figure, her beautiful eyes showing a little contemplation, and suddenly spoke:
"Please stay."
This voice came from the high sky, and Wu Wang's heart was in his throat.
Junior Deity of Lifespan had left, could it be that the Heavenly Palace was going back on their word?
The Sun Goddess was actually a higher-ranking existence in the Heavenly Palace's divine system than Junior Deity of Lifespan. It could be said that she had a transcendent status. If she stopped him now, it was really hard to know whether it was a blessing or a disaster.
Wu Wang could only remain calm, raised his head and bowed, showing no fear or panic, nor too much respect.
He asked, "May I ask what advice you have?"
"Are you called Master Wuwang?"
The Sun Goddess asked softly.Wu Wang was about to answer when a white light appeared in the sky, and the figure of Junior Deity of Lifespan appeared again.
Junior Deity of Lifespan slightly bowed to the Heavenly Empress, her voice spreading throughout the world: "Lady Xi He, I have already lost the bet before, so Master Wuwang should leave."
Xi He had a gentle smile on her lips.
The appearance of the Heavenly Emperor and Empress was unclear to all living beings, but they could clearly feel the changes in her expression, as if she possessed some incredible power.
Xi He said softly, "Junior Deity of Lifespan, there's no need to worry. I know you keep your promises. I called for Master Wuwang just to have a conversation with him, not to make you break your promise."
"Thank you for your understanding, Lady Xi He."
Junior Deity of Lifespan glanced at Wu Wang again, then disappeared into the clouds, but it was different from before. She didn't actually leave.
Xi He looked at Wu Wang, her voice reaching his ears even though she was far away:
"Master Wuwang, how did you come up with the idea of using kindness to resolve the resentment of those vengeful spirits?"
"All living beings are like this, different from gods."
Wu Wang looked up at Xi He and said slowly:
"This doesn't mean that we should repay resentment with kindness... How can we repay kindness with resentment?
I just feel that these rain priestesses of the Yu Kingdom have suffered great hardships due to the ten-day sacrifice, which has led to boundless resentment. But resentment is not their entirety.
Just like evil people, they also have moments of kindness. Although these moments cannot wash away their evil reputation, they are precious things that all living beings possess.
They are like this, the various races are like this, and the gods... judging by Junior Deity of Lifespan's actions today, they should also be like this."
Xi He nodded slowly.
Wu Wang added:
"Take the Evil God Poverty-stricken, who was promoted by the Heavenly Palace. He is neither human, nor a member of any race, nor a kind-hearted being. His nature is cruel. He believes that his divine power can probe into the hearts of people and win easily against the Human Realm. In reality, it's just self-praise.
He doesn't even know what is most precious in the hearts of people."
Betrayal happens when least expected.
Xi He said softly, "The Human Realm has been at war with the Heavenly Palace for many years. Does the Human Realm still have any goodwill towards the Heavenly Palace?"
"I'm afraid not."
Wu Wang said seriously, "The war between the Human Realm and the Heavenly Palace began with the ancient Fire God oppressing the various races, while the Heavenly Palace turned a blind eye. Later, the ancient Fire God was defeated, and the Heavenly Palace sent troops to make things difficult.
And now, the Heavenly Palace is even prepared to destroy the Human Realm at any time. How can we still hold goodwill towards the Heavenly Palace?"
Xi He said, "That's where our positions differ."
"Did you stop me just to say these things?" Wu Wang asked.
"I quite like you," Xi He said.
Wu Wang trembled and almost kneeled before Xi He.
Don't do this!
It's not that serious!
What if your husband misunderstands?
Xi He continued:
"My son is mischievous. He possesses the essence of the sun and the moon in the world and bears the responsibility of dividing day and night. It's extremely difficult to discipline him.
If you can become their teacher and teach them how to be good, it would be a great benefit to all living beings."
Wu Wang felt that the words he heard were extremely absurd and asked in disbelief, "Are you suggesting that I... become a teacher to the executioner who takes pleasure in torturing living beings?"
"Never mind," Xi He sighed lightly.
She didn't say anything more and disappeared along with the carriage.
Just as Xi He left, a crack suddenly appeared in front of Wu Wang.
Liu Bairen reached out with his big hand, grabbed Wu Wang, and pulled him into the crack, quickly disappearing.
Not long after, the eastern sky turned pale.
On the phoenix tree in Yang Valley, the fist-sized "sun" emitted a crisp chirp. The sun transformed into the size of a wheel and hung on the edge of the sky, slowly rising.
The world became bright, and the spiritual energy between heaven and earth became a bit hot.
...
"Master! Master!"
In the clouds, as soon as Wu Wang appeared, the Great Elder pounced on him.
The Blood Hand Demon Lord pressed Wu Wang's arms with his two big hands, examining him from top to bottom, and sighed deeply:
"If anything were to happen to you, Master, I wouldn't know how to face the previous generations of the Dark Demon Sect's Masters!"
Wu Wang smiled and said, "Weren't there only two before me?"
"It's mainly the previous Master," the Great Elder sighed, "If you, Master, are safe and sound, I will renovate the tomb of the previous Master!"
The surrounding experts burst into laughter.
Liu Bairen urged, "We shouldn't stay here for long. Let's open a crack together and hurry back to the eastern coast of the East Sea!"
"Good!"
"Quick!"
The experts joined forces to shake the world, causing quite a commotion.
After a while, on a white sandy beach on the northeastern side of the Human Realm, hundreds of figures gathered, surrounding Wu Wang tightly.
We are bit.ly/3iBfjkV, find us on google.
However, Lin Qi and Ling Xiaolan stood separately in the distance, not approaching.
The former thought that there was no need to get too close to his teacher, while the latter was simply afraid of being unable to avoid physical contact with so many people, although she really wanted to get closer and talk to Wu Wang.
"Master Wuwang! You really came back like this!"
"Incredible Master Wuwang, even facing Junior Deity of Lifespan alone, you remain so calm. You truly have the demeanor of a great general!"
"That Junior Deity of Lifespan is still somewhat trustworthy. I had already prepared to mock them with a long-distance voice transmission, scolding them for being inconsistent and so on."
Wu Wang smiled and responded, exchanging greetings with the experts of the Human Realm for a while, feeling a bit overwhelmed.
Fortunately, Lord Liu Bairen spoke up and pulled Wu Wang out of the crowd.
The experts of the Human Realm bid their farewells and did not stay in that place for long.
The experts who were still heading towards the east of the East Sea were also summoned back by the Jade Talismans of the Benevolent Emperor Pavilion.
Half an hour later, there were only a few figures left on the beach.
The Great Elder had returned to his original state and was holding two puppets, constantly pondering and muttering, seemingly trying to "plagiarize" the "exchange" divine ability that Junior Deity of Lifespan had displayed.
Wu Wang stood with his hands behind his back at the edge of a cliff, looking at the sea in front of him, lost in thought.
"You really scared people almost to death."
A sigh came from beside him, and Ling Xiaolan floated over slowly.She gazed at Wu Wang, saying, "Fortunately, the Junior Deity of Lifespan isn't too bad, she's a decent innate deity."
"Indeed."
Wu Wang gave Ling Xiaolan a gentle smile, speaking softly:
"Just as there are bad people in our Human Realm, not everyone in the Heavenly Palace is as cunning and deceitful as Qiong Qi.
But Fairy, there's something you need to understand."
"What is it?"
"Humans are humans, gods are gods. Don't measure deities by our moral standards. There are many fundamental contradictions between the two that can't be understood by each other."
Wu Wang stretched his neck: "No matter what the Junior Deity of Lifespan's temperament or character is like, she is an enemy. To have feelings for an enemy is to be on the brink of self-destruction."
Ling Xiaolan said seriously: "I was too naive."
"Sigh," Wu Wang stared at the fiery sun in the east, "It feels like a dream, suddenly appearing in front of the Junior Deity of Lifespan."
"It was the Junior Deity of Lifespan who used a powerful divine power," Ling Xiaolan said, "She swapped two puppets for you and another Heavenly Immortal. The Great Elder was quite annoyed about this.
Speaking of which, this divine power is strange, I really don't know what kind of Dao it is."
Wu Wang was stunned, suddenly remembering the other storage magic treasure he saw when he first came out of his own.
When he came back, he was only thinking about how to escape from the Junior Deity of Lifespan, but he forgot about that storage magic treasure... Upon careful recollection, he did not find that treasure bag later.
"Damn it."
Wu Wang couldn't help but slap his forehead.
"That Heavenly Immortal might have been captured by the Junior Deity of Lifespan and taken to the Heavenly Palace!"
Ling Xiaolan pondered for a moment, murmuring: "Don't worry, it's also possible that it fell into the sea. We were all watching you at the time and didn't notice the whereabouts of that treasure bag..."
"What's wrong?"
Liu Bairen's voice came. He, Feng Yezi, Celestial Sword Taoist, and the Great Elder returned from sending people off, landing on the edge of the cliff.
Wu Wang briefly explained the matter of the Heavenly Immortal in the bag, and the four experts all frowned.
Liu Bairen said: "We can't venture into that sea area for now, it's too late to rush over. Let's wait for news to see if she fell into the sea. If so, she will swim back on her own.
Let's wait half a month. If she doesn't come back, we'll send people to search."
"We can only prepare for the worst at this time."
Celestial Sword Taoist said in a low voice: "That Heavenly Immortal friend was one of the escorts who sent Xiao Guduo back to the North Wilderness. She naturally knew about Xing Tian and Xiao Guduo coming to the Human Realm... If she was captured by the Heavenly Palace, it could lead to a very unfavorable situation for the North Wilderness."
Wu Wang couldn't help but pace back and forth. The usually calm him was extremely worried about his home at this moment.
Brother Xing Tian appeared directly in front of the Junior Deity of Lifespan;
His identity as the young master of North Wilderness was becoming more and more known in the Human Realm;
The Heavenly Immortal who was likely to have been captured...
He said: "No, I need to go back to the North Wilderness to check!"
Liu Bairen said: "We need to ask His Majesty about this matter."
"Just let the Pavilion Master speak to His Majesty for me," Wu Wang said, "I'll go back to the West Sea in disguise to avoid the eyes of the Heavenly Palace."
Celestial Sword Taoist said: "Master, let me escort Wu Wang."
Liu Bairen looked torn, glanced at Wu Wang, then at Celestial Sword, and turned around to leave on his own.
"You guys decide for yourselves, don't blame me if you get scolded."
The Great Elder said: "Sect Master, even if you are in a hurry, it will inevitably take some time on the road. Why not rest for a while first? I will find a magic treasure that can fly at extreme speed."
"Thank you, Great Elder," Wu Wang said warmly, "Just in time, let's go back to the Sect of Annihilation first. I need to bring Su Qing with me."
"Good."
Ling Xiaolan suddenly asked: "Where did Mu Da Xian go?"
Wu Wang asked: "Didn't she come with you?"
Celestial Sword Taoist said: "She seemed to have disappeared earlier..."
Everyone was suddenly confused and began to inquire everywhere.
Meanwhile, at the bottom of the East Sea, to the north.
The giant crab maintained its mysterious and peculiar state, taking advantage of the East Sea's inattention to hurry north.
Not far behind the giant crab, a thin figure quietly followed, holding a pair of iron tongs and a small hammer in his hand. Wrapped in celestial light, he wiped the saliva from the corner of his mouth.
