Chapter 1 Tu Shan Clan

Yu the Great, Si Wenming, slowly walked, each step taken with utmost care and focus. Yet, his movements still seemed somewhat strange and unusual. It was as if, having been in a state of true spiritual essence for thousands of years, although the strength of his true spirit was enough to make him no different from ordinary people, he still felt various discomforts upon suddenly returning to his physical body.

It was like how humans who had spent too long in space would experience various glitches upon returning to Earth. "Haa... haa..." Yu the Great stopped.

His clothes were already soaked with sweat. He released his grip, and the chains in his hands crashed heavily onto the ground.

It seemed as if the entire earth trembled. Behind him, the chains, made of a special material, stretched all the way up to the mountainside. Undoubtedly, the king had just dragged this mountain for a considerable distance, which explained his exertion. "Finally, I've recovered a bit."

As a mighty warrior who had been dead for thousands of years and had just returned to earth, full of vigor and vitality to an astonishing degree, Yu the Great didn't seem entirely satisfied with his condition.

However, while drinking water, he seemed to sense someone's gaze and shuddered violently. He turned his head stiffly and saw Nujiao, her brows bright and her bearing magnanimous, smiling at him. Her appearance shifted with her mood, her head now full of dark hair, loosely gathered, making her even more alluring and charming.

"Looks like you've recovered well."

Yu the Great glanced curiously at the water bottle in his hand and said, "Indeed, not bad at all. The power of Shennong is truly unmatched when it comes to recovery."

He sighed, saying, "I wonder what A-Yuan is doing and where he is now. Can he really bring Qi back?"

Nujiao was also somewhat worried, but she still said, "He's already the Yuanshi Tianzun after all. Since he said so, there shouldn't be any problems. If he calls himself Tianzun and can't even do something like this, I'll be sure to laugh at him when he gets back." Nujiao said jokingly.

Yu the Great sighed, "He's not just calling himself Tianzun."

He thought of Wei Yuan's battle with Dijun earlier, saying, "He's no longer the Yuan of before."

Nujiao chuckled and said, "But he's still so easily tricked. He actually believed it when I said you and I were going to get married again." Seeing that there was no one around, she simply reached out and touched Yu the Great's chin with her finger, then lifted it slightly, resembling a millennia-old fox spirit from the Tu Shan clan. Yu the Great was helpless and had no choice but to cooperate.

Just then, karma permeated the void, like a road, and almost instantly, the white-haired, blue-robed Daoist appeared here with Qi, whose face was once again covered with a mask. The two were chatting casually, "Heh... Qi, you were staying under Tu Shan before, and even after coming out, you left before long. I guess you don't even know what Tu Shan looks like now."

"Actually, the human world has changed even more. You hardly went out last time, did you? Yu just came back too."

"You can go out and wander around more. Oh, and you can get an ID card."

"Although I was very sorry before, the big one is yet to come. Since I'm already burdened with debt, and I don't care about more lice, I'll just have Lao Zhang help me pack everything up at once."

"That Daoist friend Zhang, perhaps it was a mistake to know you."

"Haha, Qi, what are you saying..." The two looked up, laughing.

They saw a beautiful scene before them, with gentle breezes and bright sunshine. The beauty, whose white hair had been replaced with dark locks, reached out and lifted the chin of the heroic man before her. Their eyes met, filled with tender affection, as if they were about to do something intimate. Nujiao looked at them with a smile in her eyes.

Oh no! Wei Yuan and Qi's bodies stiffened at the same time.

Just then, the boy with the new mask spoke in a calm voice, without any ripples, "Yuan, why aren't you talking? Have we arrived at Tu Shan?" Then, he said apologetically, "I'm not in a good state right now. I just exiled Kaiming, and I suffered a backlash. I can't see anything."

Qi used his skill, "Seek Good Fortune and Avoid Calamity (Sell Teammates)." The effect was remarkable.

Wei Yuan's expression froze. *You little...!*

Just then, a figure rushed over, laughing wildly. Yu the Great opened his arms and embraced his two friends, not knowing what to say, just laughing loudly and hugging them even tighter, with a force that could kill a bear. Wei Yuan and Qi were stunned.

Then, two hands, one on each side, pressed against Yu the Great's face, trying to push him away. They said in unison, "Stay away from us! Your sweaty smell is going to suffocate us!"

"Cough, cough, Yu, Yu, this smell is a bit overwhelming. I'm injured, seriously injured!" Yu the Great hugged them tightly for a while before finally letting go.

At this time, a gentle voice came from behind Qi, "Didn't you say you lost all your senses, can't hear or smell?" Qi pretended to be calm and said, "Of course."

Nujiao said with a smile, "A-Yuan, Yu, go."

"Qi has rarely returned. You two should show off your cooking skills and make a good meal to welcome Qi." Qi's brow suddenly twitched wildly.

Could it be that he was going to eat both dishes, one half made by A-Yuan and the other half by Yu?

A blind box of good and bad?

But why was the sense of impending death so strong!

Qi chose to follow the conclusion of his Heavenly Secrets Dao, which was frantically warning him, and said honestly in a soft voice, "Ah, sorry."

"We, we went to the wrong door."

Such a lame excuse that even Wei Yuan couldn't stand it.

Nujiao had already raised her hand, as if she was about to chop Qi on the head, but in the end, she just put it on his shoulder. The Tu Shan clan's goddess spoke in a rare soft and gentle voice, simply saying, "Welcome back, Qi..." "So, you should just stay here."

"Although the Tu Shan clan is just a small world, it can be considered a country. It's also quiet, and you can study the further possibilities of Qimen Dunjia here without anyone disturbing you. If you get bored or feel dull after staying here for a long time, you can also go directly to A-Yuan. You can also stay in that old street for a while and experience the mortal world."

Nujiao, holding a cup of tea, gave this choice after listening to Wei Yuan's simple introduction to Qi's previous choices and experiences.

Of course, it wasn't really a choice, at least Qi had no choice. It was Nujiao's mistake to let him run away last time. But the fox spirits of the Tu Shan clan would not be defeated by the same trick twice. A certain Tianzun who wished to remain anonymous said it was very annoying.

Another Tianzun who wished to remain anonymous said that was true, except for his sister's matter. Qi nodded. Then Wei Yuan coughed and said with a smile, "Well, Nujiao."

"Hmm?" Nujiao looked at him with a drawn-out tone.

The Daoist coughed and said, "Sister, can I call you my dear sister? Look, I've brought Qi back to you now. Shouldn't we let go of what happened before?" He nudged Qi with his elbow.

Qi sighed helplessly and said with a smile, "I've already heard about what happened from A-Yuan."

"I thought about it some more, and you really want to have another wedding ceremony?" "That really surprises me." Nujiao keenly noticed the hidden meaning in Qi's words—

[I probably know what you want to do. You're probably not planning to have a wedding ceremony with Yu at all, are you?] Nujiao said with a smile, "It's just like what you think."

Qi nodded, "Then I understand."

Nujiao said playfully, "Looks like you're going to stand on A-Yuan's side."

Qi said without changing his expression, "You're all friends. It's not good for me to say who I'm helping and who I'm not, so I'll just help each of you once. I've already promised Yuan that I'll help him with your wedding. If you want to play tricks on Yuan, I'll have to stand on A-Yuan's side." This was the founder of the trio who caused trouble in ancient times, with two taking the blame.

Qi, who was best known for selling out his teammates, was now so reliable and such a good brother. He was even willing to go up against Nujiao. Even Wei Yuan was touched. Qi didn't change his expression. Nujiao nodded.

The meaning of this sentence was to help each of them once, but the wedding between Nujiao and Yu didn't exist in the first place. In other words, there was no basis for helping A-Yuan. In other words, Qi meant, "Don't worry, I'm on your side this time." Yuanshi Tianzun sighed that Qi was finally reliable for once. Yu the Great couldn't understand the encrypted conversation at all.

And the two brains in the quartet had completed their communication and reached a consensus.

Nujiao lightly took a sip of tea and said faintly, "Since you've already fulfilled our agreement and successfully brought Qi out, and even got him to promise to help you, it doesn't seem appropriate for me to be too harsh on you. But I can't let you off so easily." Nujiao smiled and said, "Since you're the Yuanshi Tianzun, you naturally have wide connections."

"This wedding, which is five thousand years overdue, must be grand and lively, even if it's just a ceremony." "Find some people with high enough status to come. Don't you have a lot of friends?"

The Tu Shan fox girl revealed her true colors, smiling and saying, "For example, the Mountain God of Buzhou, the two Nüwangs, Dijun, Zhurong, Yanming, and your friends from the human world, Zhang Hao, the Old Heavenly Master, and that old professor of history, the little living corpse of the Daoist sect, invite them all to witness. The more people, the more lively, isn't it?"

"Oh right, bring those from the Zhenyao Museum too, Bai Suzhen, Xiaoqing, and Wuzhiqi and that monk too. And Jue too, you can't keep asking her to help watch the store. Anyway, your museum doesn't make any money."

Wei Yuan frowned. Wei Yuan pondered. Wei Yuan grasped the cause and effect.

Cause and effect reminded him that this was not a bad thing, not only was it not a bad thing, but it was also a great thing. The Yuanshi Tianzun gave up thinking and nodded readily, "Okay."

At the same time, in the East Sea Gorge, the Ruins of Gui. Fuxi pondered how to knock on the door.

The dragon beast he was sitting on had some Dao cultivation, reaching the level of a demon. If it were in the human world, it would have the status of a River Dragon King. In the *Shan Hai Jing*, it would be in the realm of a local water god. It was subdued by him, no, it was that this dragon beast occasionally felt like going out for a walk. After walking a thousand steps, it saw a sage traveling with ten thousand rays of light and auspicious clouds. The sage expounded the Dharma, and heaven and earth shook.

So it was deeply moved and knelt down, crawling a hundred steps and kowtowing, willing to be his mount. The dragon beast glanced at the broken dragon horn and the bruised dragon eye in the reflection on the water and nodded repeatedly. "Ah, yes, yes, you're right. I'm willing."

It knelt down on its own, not because a certain hand pressed its head into the ground and asked it with clenched fists whether it would go with him or be sent away. At this moment, it shook its head and said, "So, boss..."

Fuxi glanced at it and drew out his nasal sound, "Hmm?"

"Well, so, sire, how do you plan to visit the Lord of the Ruins of Gui politely and elegantly?" The mount stiffened and said, "So, Grand Duke, how are you planning to politely visit the master of Gui Xu?"

Fuxi was finally satisfied and said, "I'm a civil official, a civil official, do you understand?" "Of course..."

He clapped his hands, and countless Qimen Dunjia and Xiantian formations appeared densely packed around him in an extremely terrifying manner. As the master of the Xiantian Great Dao, he learned about this when Qi deduced this move. This was the terrifying thing about the Daoguo realm. All the skills and mythical concepts based on this Great Dao were just a fruit or a flower on the tree trunk. They all existed based on the Daoguo.

The majestic and terrifying Yuan Qi gathered, almost forming a Yuan Qi storm and Yuan Qi vacuum around it. The dragon beast's scales were stimulated and exploded. "Damn it, damn it, damn it!"

The next moment, the terrifying Yuan Qi, almost equivalent to pulling the moon down directly in the human world, gathered and turned into a terrifying cone-shaped thunder, fire, and windstorm, which then fell from the sky and slammed heavily into the rotating and sinking water whirlpool. Thunder and fire ran wild, and clouds were vast, with a thunderous sound!

"Thunder of Heaven, Great Strength, Fire of Heaven, Great Possession, give it to me, smash it!" "Ah ha ha ha, give me, smash it, smash it!"

Under the terrifying thunder, Fuxi's face was laughing wildly, with light and shadow intertwined, like a great demon. The dragon beast was stunned, "This, is your elegance? This is your politeness?" Then he immediately understood.

What was the elegance of the most ancient civil official.

Because the next moment, Fuxi had already shouted wildly, "Lord of the Gui Ruins, are you home?!" "Are you awake?" "Have you eaten?"

"Do you still remember the Yuanshi Tianzun who slapped you to death back then?"
