Chapter 221 A Sage Acts as Matchmaker!
As soon as Fuxi uttered these words, Dijun's eyes lit up, and he quickly looked at him:
"Xi Huang, speak quickly!"
"Is there any way?"
Fuxi smiled faintly and replied:
"It's very simple."
"All we need to do is find the sage Nuwa to act as matchmaker!"
"She is a Heavenly Saint. If she were to personally go to Taiyin Star to propose marriage for His Majesty, and persuade the demon race on the basis of righteousness as a Saint, even if Xihe and Changxi were unwilling, they probably wouldn't dare to contradict the Saint."
"As long as Xihe or Changxi nods in agreement, the matter will be settled."
"Even if Niu Ben has a thousand grievances at that time, what can he do in the face of a fait accompli and a marriage arranged by a sage?"
"We can't just force a war against the Sage Nuwa and even the entire demon race, can we?"
Upon hearing what Fuxi said, Dijun was overjoyed, his eyes shining brightly, and he couldn't help but clap his hands in praise:
"Wonderful! Absolutely wonderful!"
"With the sage Nuwa personally acting as matchmaker, the matter is settled!"
Meanwhile, all the demon gods present also praised it:
"The Emperor Xi was truly a master strategist!"
"With a sage intervening, even Niu Ben can't cause any trouble!"
"As expected of the Xi Huang of my demon race!"
"..."
The demon gods praised Fuxi highly.
Upon seeing this, a barely perceptible hint of displeasure flashed deep in the eyes of the demon master Kunpeng.
After all, he is the demon master of the demon race.
But right now, Fuxi's strategizing has earned him high praise from everyone, making him seem somewhat useless as a demon master.
Although he was somewhat displeased, Kunpeng couldn't easily retaliate.
After all, Fuxi held an extraordinary status among the demon race.
Not only was he himself the Xi Huang of the demon race.
He was also the elder brother of the sage Nuwa.
At this moment, Di Jun stood up from his seat, looking at Fuxi with excitement, and said:
"Xi Huang".
"Your suggestion is excellent."
"Next, I will trouble you to accompany me to the Nuwa Palace!"
Fuxi nodded.
Without further ado, the two left together and headed straight for the Nuwa Palace!
……
At this juncture.
The location of the Taiyin star is within the Guanghan Palace.
Xihe leaned on the railing, gazing at the endless starry sky, and felt inexplicably uneasy.
She couldn't explain why, but she always felt that something bad was going to happen to her.
"elder sister."
Are you alright?
Why do you look so gloomy?
Seeing Xihe's expression, Changxi, who was standing nearby, came closer and asked in confusion.
Upon hearing this, Xihe shook her head and said:
"I'm fine."
"I just don't know why, but I feel uneasy."
Having said that, Xihe let out a long sigh, then changed the subject and asked:
"By the way, where's my little sister?"
After the sermon on Penglai Immortal Island ended, Niu Xiaomei followed Xihe and Changxi to Taiyin Star.
Upon hearing Xihe's question, Changxi replied with a hint of helplessness:
"Where else can we go?"
"That girl went to the osmanthus grove again!"
Upon hearing this, Xihe's expression changed slightly, and she quickly said:
"Nonsense!"
"Sister, go and find her quickly."
"She didn't know the dangers inside, didn't you?"
Above the Moon Star, besides the Guanghan Palace, there is also a huge osmanthus forest.
Even Xihe and Changxi had not fully explored the depths of that laurel forest.
Seeing how urgent Xihe was speaking, Changxi paused for a moment, then quickly nodded and said:
"Okay, I... I'll go and bring my little sister back right away!"
Without lingering, Chang Xi quickly slipped away.
Watching Chang Xi's departing figure, Xi He couldn't help but frown.
"I hope nothing goes wrong with my little sister!"
Xihe muttered to herself, extremely worried about Niu Xiaomei's safety.
After all, if something were to happen to Niu Xiaomei on Taiyin Star, she wouldn't know how to explain it to Niu Ben.
……
Meanwhile, outside the chaotic heavens.
A palace stands there, like a lighthouse in the void.
This is none other than the sacred site established by the goddess Nuwa, the Nuwa Palace!
Originally, Nuwa lived in the heavens.
At that time, she and her brother Fuxi joined the camp of the demon race and were even bestowed the titles of Nuwa and Xihuang.
However, as Nuwa molded humans from clay and attained sainthood through her merits, she received a message from the Heavenly Dao that saints should not arbitrarily interfere in the affairs of the primordial world.
That is why Nuwa decided to establish another Daoist temple outside the Chaos Heaven.
To this end, the demon race also invited many powerful beings from the primordial world to witness Nuwa opening a new sacred site.
"Whoosh!"
Within the void and chaos, two streaks of light flashed by and then descended outside Nuwa's Palace.
The newcomers were none other than the Demon Emperor Di Jun and Emperor Fuxi.
Just as the two landed, a figure flashed out and blocked their path.
This person was a boy with his hair in two topknots.
It was Lingzhuzi, the guardian attendant of the sage Nuwa.
Upon seeing that it was Di Jun and Fu Xi who had arrived, Ling Zhu Zi quickly bowed to the two of them:
"Lingzhuzi greets His Majesty the Heavenly Emperor and Emperor Xi."
Di Jun nodded and quickly said:
"Please inform the attendant that the Emperor and Emperor Xi have important matters to discuss with the Sage Nuwa."
Although Di Jun was the Heavenly Emperor of the Demon Clan, he dared not be presumptuous in front of the Sage's Daoist temple.
"Please wait a moment, both of you."
Lingzhuzi didn't delay and turned to go into the palace to report.
Meanwhile, inside the main hall of Nuwa Palace.
The sage Nuwa sat serenely on her cloud bed, contemplating the mysteries of creation.
Suddenly, Lingzhuzi appeared and reported:
"saint."
"The Heavenly Emperor and the legendary Emperor Xi request an audience!"
Upon hearing what Lingzhuzi said, the Sage Nuwa frowned slightly, secretly hesitating.
"Big Brother and Di Jun have come together?"
"What is the matter?"
After a moment's thought, Nuwa had a sudden thought and wanted to deduce something.
Unfortunately, the secrets of heaven are obscure and difficult to discern.
After a brief pause, Nuwa regained her senses and gave the order:
"Please let them in!"
"Yes."
Lingzhuzi responded and then vanished.
Before long, Lingzhuzi brought Dijun and Fuxi into the main hall.
Upon seeing the sage Nuwa, Di Jun bowed deeply in reverence.
"I have met the Sage!"
At the same time, Fuxi also respectfully bowed and said:
"I have met the Sage!"
Although he was Nuwa's brother, etiquette should not be disregarded. When meeting a sage, the proper manners should still be observed.
The sage Nuwa nodded slightly, her gaze sweeping over Dijun and Fuxi, and said calmly:
"May I ask what brings you and the Heavenly Emperor here, elder brother?"
Upon hearing Nuwa's question, Fuxi and Dijun exchanged a glance.
Then, Fuxi stepped forward and spoke first:
"Reporting to Your Majesty, the two of us have come here today because of a matter of great importance concerning the future fortune of the demon race, and we humbly request Your Majesty's assistance."
Before Nuwa could say anything, Dijun chimed in:
"Yes, the sage Nuwa."
"This matter can only be resolved by the intervention of a sage. We hope that the sage will consider the millions of people of the demon race and lend a helping hand."
When he said this, Di Jun adopted a very humble posture, and his tone was full of sincerity.
