Hearing this voice, I turned around. Who else could it be but Nangong?
I had already expected it, so I wasn't surprised to see Nangong. I hurried to greet him with the fatty.
After greeting him, the fatty was still immersed in his entanglement with Bai Ling and didn't say anything. I asked Nangong, "How did you know I was coming here?"
I had long been used to the fact that Nangong knew everything about me. It was just a casual question, but I didn't expect Nangong to shake his head and tell me that he didn't know I was coming here. After sensing my aura, he asked Bai Ling to go out and pick me up.
Hearing that, I couldn't help but be surprised. At this time, Nangong smiled and said, "This Medicine King Valley is the refuge of my witch tribe. When I'm not with you, I stay here.
Originally, I planned to take you here, but I didn't expect that you would come here yourself. Tell me, how did you find this place, and why did you come here? "
I wanted to ask about Bai Ling, but after hearing Nangong's question, I had to suppress my doubts and tell him the reason for my trip in detail.
After listening to me, Nangong nodded and said, "Although I wasn't with you at that time, I know the whole story.
She was kind to you, so it's natural to save her remnant soul. You don't need to be impatient. That cauldron is the Shennong Cauldron. You can use it. "
With his consent, I was relieved. I hurried to take out Wuyue's remnant soul from the Xiangliu bag and handed it to Nangong.
Nangong went over and activated the Shennong Cauldron, placing Wuyue's remnant soul in it. Then, he told me that the Shennong Cauldron's nourishing and reconstructing effect was unparalleled, but Wuyue was a lonely soul without anything to rely on. It was impossible to reconstruct a body for the time being. I had to nourish the remnant soul first and make it stronger.
With Wuyue's current remnant soul, if he wanted to reconstruct a body, it was almost the same as creating a new life. Of course, I knew the difficulty. I didn't expect to use the Shennong Cauldron to do it, so I was prepared and nodded.
After settling the matter with Wuyue, Nangong looked at me with gratification in his eyes. "I haven't seen you for a while. Not bad. You've finally advanced to the Yang God Realm."
I nodded but didn't answer. I had an indescribable feeling in my heart.
All along, Nangong's movements and whereabouts have always been extremely secretive. However, to me, he has always played the role of a father and brother. Many times, even his gaze when he looks at me carries a kind of intense expectation, as though he is anxiously waiting for me to grow up.
I vaguely understood the reason, but could not articulate it.
At that moment, Nangong changed the topic. He pointed at his surroundings and said, "The remaining members of the Sorcerer Tribe are basically all in this valley. Since you're here, let's go out for a walk. The people here have been waiting for you for a long time."
Wait for me?
I frowned as I didn't understand. At that moment, Bai Ling, who was beside me, suddenly exclaimed. She looked at Nangong in astonishment and asked loudly, "Are you saying … that he is the Saint?"
Saints?
I was not unfamiliar with this title. Wang Can and Lin Acheng had called me that, but they were members of the Nine Cauldrons Clan. Why would Bai Ling say that?
Could it be that she and Nangong were also members of the Nine Cauldrons Clan?
I recalled that Wang Can and Lin Acheng both cultivated sorcery energy. Could it be that the Medicine King Valley was also one of the Nine Cauldrons Clan?
Or, the Nine Cauldrons Clan was the Sorcerer Tribe?
As soon as I thought of this, I shook my head.
The Nine Cauldrons Clan got their name from the Nine Cauldrons. However, the Medicine King Valley, or Nangong and Bai Ling, obviously had nothing to do with the Nine Cauldrons Clan.
I couldn't think of an answer. At that moment, Nangong nodded slightly at Bai Ling, confirming her words.
After getting the confirmation, Bai Ling was even more shocked. She was stunned for a long time. Suddenly, she knelt in front of me and called me Saint.
I was already used to the etiquette of Wang Can and the people of Wangwu Grotto-Heaven. At that moment, I didn't feel any discomfort. However, Bai Ling was someone I had known for a long time. After hesitating for a while, I didn't know how to deal with her. I could only ignore her for the time being. I turned to Nangong and asked him about my doubts.
Nangong didn't participate much in the Nine Cauldrons Clan's matter. However, there were few things that he didn't know about me. After hearing my question, he smiled and told me that the Nine Cauldrons Clan cultivated witchcraft energy. Naturally, they were also members of the Sorcerer Tribe. However, they were considered as another inheritance of the Sorcerer Tribe, which was different from the Medicine King Valley.
As for my identity as a Saint, he smiled and explained that when Shinno passed away, there was a prophecy that a Saint would be born. I was the Saint who was born.
Hence, regardless of whether it was the Nine Cauldrons Clan or the Medicine King Valley, they all recognized my identity as a Saint.
I still didn't understand what he had said.
According to what he had told me previously, as well as my experiences in the past few years, I basically knew that I was the reincarnation of Monster King Jun and Emperor Ku. However, regardless of whether it was Monster King Jun or Emperor Ku, they had nothing to do with the Sorcerer Tribe.
I could understand if it was said that I was a living Saint of the Monster Tribe. However, it was unbelievable that I had become a Saint of the Sorcerer Tribe.
When I asked Nangong about it again, he shook his head and told me not to be anxious. I would find out later.
Since he wasn't willing to say it now, I naturally didn't probe further. Just as I was about to follow him out, Bai Ling, who was at the side, asked me again, "Saint, do you know the whereabouts of the Saintess?"
His words made me confused again.
I was familiar with the term Saint, but what did the Saintess mean?
I was confused. I turned to look at Nangong, but he didn't speak. Instead, he was talking to the fat man at the side.
Helpless, I could only ask Bai Ling who the so-called Saintess was.
Bai Ling seemed to be puzzled that I didn't know the identity of the Saintess. He said that he had gone to the Fire God Temple to look for the Saintess.
Hearing what he said, I was shocked.
Besides the silver-eyed man, there was only Tao Wu in the Fire God Temple. Could the Saintess that he mentioned be Tao Wu?
I had always been curious about Tao Wu's identity, but she didn't want to tell me. Who knew that I would get some unexpected news here?
After I calmed down, I asked Bai Ling, "Is the Saintess she mentioned Tao Wu?"
Hearing the name Tao Wu, she was stunned. Then, she nodded.
After getting confirmation, I was puzzled. Tao Wu was in the Fire God Temple. It was impossible that Nangong didn't know about it. Why did Bai Ling ask about Tao Wu's whereabouts?
Did Nangong not tell her?
I turned to look at Nangong, then lowered my head to look at Bai Ling. At that moment, I didn't know how to answer.
After a moment of silence, I saw that Nangong didn't say anything, so I told Bai Ling that Tao Wu was in the Fire God Temple. I asked her, "Did you not see Tao Wu when you entered the Fire God Temple that year?"
Hearing my answer, Bai Ling was stunned. She told me that after she entered, the Fire God Temple had disappeared and she had fallen into a coma. Afterwards, Nan Gong had saved her and she hadn't seen Bi 'an at all. Naturally, she didn't know that she was in the Fire God Temple.
Then, she continued to tell me that Tao Wu was the Saintess of the witch tribe. For thousands of years, the Medicine King Valley had been searching for the whereabouts of the Saintess.
Until a few years ago, she accidentally sensed the aura of the Saintess.
She wanted to find her and confirm the Saintess's situation.
From Nangong, she learned that the Saintess was in the Fire God Temple. Then, she learned that Chief Liu had a map of the Fire God Temple. Coincidentally, he was also looking for the Fire God Temple.
Thus, she participated in this matter as a secretary. However, she couldn't find the Saintess's whereabouts at that time.
However, she just wanted to confirm the Saintess's situation. She didn't want to bring her back to the Medicine King Valley.
Then, Bai Ling didn't say anything else.
There was something in her words that interested me a lot.
She mentioned that the Medicine King Valley had been searching for the Saintess for thousands of years. In other words, Tao Wu had lived thousands of years ago.
Moreover, the Medicine King Valley was a branch of the witch tribe. I couldn't help but connect Tao Wu to the Antiquity Time.
Moreover, almost everything that has happened to me in the past few years is related to that period.
Since Lao Ai was able to have such a marriage with me, she must have an extraordinary identity.
Since she was a person from thousands of years ago and the Saintess of the Medicine King Valley, could she be related to the Yan Emperor?
However, this was just my guess. Perhaps the white-collared worker knew the truth.
With that in mind, I asked Bai Ling about it.
Since she had told me about the relationship between Tao Wu and the Medicine King Valley, she didn't need to hide anything from me.
After listening to my words, she didn't hesitate and immediately told me.
From her, I learned that Tao Wu was indeed a person from the Antiquity Time. Moreover, she was the Yan Emperor's youngest daughter.
Hearing this, I was bewildered.
That girl was the Yan Emperor's youngest daughter.
According to ancient records, the girl drowned and turned into a Jingwei.
According to the legends, the girl was attracted by the Ultimate Ruin. She jumped to the East Sea alone and swam toward it.
However, along the way, there was a storm that swallowed the girl. She sank into the Ultimate Ruin and never returned.
However, even though the girl was dead, her spirit was still there. She hated the waves in the sea and turned a few strands of her spiritual energy into Jing Wei Birds, sending them to fill up the East Sea. This was how the legend of Jing Wei Filling the Sea came about.
After thousands of years of change, it was possible that the East Sea had shrunk.
In that case, the Fire God Temple was the original Ultimate Ruin. Since our village was related to the Fire God Temple, it was reasonable for Tao Wu to appear in the village.
Tao Wu had died in the Ultimate Ruin. Moreover, that place was mysterious. It was understandable that she couldn't leave.
Now, I understood why Bai Ling called Tao Wu the Saintess.
The Witch Tribe referred to the Yan Emperor's tribe, and the Medicine King Valley was one of them.
The Yan Emperor was the chief of the tribe, so his daughter was naturally the Saintess of the Witch Tribe.
However, there were still many things that I didn't understand.
I was the reincarnation of Monster King Jun and Emperor Ku. Emperor Ku was the great-grandson of the Yellow Emperor, so he had nothing to do with the Yan Emperor.
However, in the war back then, Monster King Jun killed the Yan Emperor in order to snatch the power of witchcraft qi. That was also the reason why I could use witchcraft qi.
I remembered that the reason why Tao Wu pestered me was because I drank a cup of wine at the grave and then bowed to her in my sleep.
However, since Tao Wu was the daughter of the Yan Emperor, why would she marry her enemy?
Could it be that she didn't know my identity at all?
Or was it just because I accidentally drank that cup of strong wine?
As I thought about it, I suddenly realized that I had embarked on the path of cultivation because of the "Death Scripture" that Tao Wu had given me. That was how the series of events that followed happened.
In that case, it wasn't a coincidence. There must be a mastermind behind the scenes.
From the looks of it, the meeting between Tao Wu and me was the beginning of the entire plan, and also the most crucial part.
Previously, I had never thought about these things. Now that I knew about the situation, I was rather displeased.
However, even if it was a plan, Tao Wu's feelings for me were very real. There were no distracting thoughts between us, and heaven and earth could prove that.
As I thought about it, I had to thank the mastermind behind the scenes. If not for his plan, Tao Wu and I wouldn't have been fated to be married.
As I thought about it, I no longer bothered about the mastermind behind the scenes.
