Chapter 88: The Reincarnation of Fuxi
As the first of the Three Sovereigns and the one destined to be the Heavenly Emperor, Fuxi was required to abandon his demonic form and be reborn as a human. Therefore, Nuwa specially summoned Fuxi to the Nuwa Palace.
"Brother, how are the demons doing lately?" Nuwa asked Fuxi.
Fuxi smiled and said, "Everything is fine. Although the environment in Beiju Luzhou is a bit harsh, without the fighting, the people are living relatively peacefully. Moreover, the Demon Master has returned to the demon race. With the Demon Master's help, the pressure on me has been greatly reduced."
Speaking of the demon race, Fuxi's face showed a slight smile. Since the Lich War, the demon race was driven to Beiju Luzhou. At first, they complained a lot. After all, compared to the Thirty-Three Heavens, the conditions in Beiju Luzhou were too poor. Not only was the spiritual energy thin, but there was also not much vegetation. If it weren't for the arrival of the demon race, Beiju Luzhou could be said to be a wasteland.
But once they truly settled down, the demon race, far removed from the struggles, discovered that this kind of life was actually quite good. At least they didn't have to live in constant fear, afraid of a major war with the witch race and the death of their loved ones in the flames of war.
"That's good. It's comforting to know that our people's lives can be stable. By the way, brother, there's something I wanted to tell you today," Nuwa said.
"What is it?" Fuxi asked.
Nuwa said, "Humanity has become the protagonist of heaven and earth, but if humanity wants to truly prosper, it must go through the reigns of the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors. And the first of the Three Sovereigns, the Heavenly Emperor, is you, brother."
"What!" Fuxi was very surprised. How could he be involved in this?
"Sister, I am the Demon Emperor of the Demon Clan. How can I be the Human Emperor of the Human Clan? Could it be that you've made a mistake?" Fuxi asked. Wasn't he the Demon Emperor of the Demon Clan? How could he be the Human Emperor of the Human Clan? The saying that humans and demons cannot coexist is not a joke.
"This was decided by Heaven and our teacher, there's no mistake. Moreover, after you become the Human Emperor, you will receive merit rewards, which will definitely help you advance further. And more importantly, the Human Emperor will suppress the destiny of the human race in the future. As long as the human race is not destroyed, the Human Emperor will not die, making him comparable to a saint. Of course, if you want to become the Human Emperor, you must abandon your demon body and be reborn as a human," Nuwa said.
"Then, am I still a demon?" Fuxi said dejectedly. He dared not and was powerless to oppose the will of Heaven and Hongjun. But even if he could become the Human Emperor and be immortal by abandoning his demon form, what would be the point if he was no longer a demon?
"How can it not be?" Nuwa said, "Although brother has lost his demon form, as long as my demon race still recognizes brother as the Demon Emperor Xi, then brother will always be a demon. Moreover, perhaps through brother, we can improve the relationship between the demon race and the human race."
"Since that's the case, then I, your brother, shall become the Human Emperor." Since Nuwa had arranged everything, Fuxi naturally had no objections. He was comparable to a sage. Fuxi knew very well that he had no hope of becoming a sage in this life. What was there to be dissatisfied with if he could become a Human Emperor, comparable to a sage?
"Alright, since you agree, brother, then I will take you to the Netherworld to find Houtu. If you want to be reborn as a human, you cannot bypass the Six Paths of Reincarnation." Nuwa breathed a sigh of relief when she saw that Fuxi had agreed, and immediately said that she would take Fuxi to the Six Paths of Reincarnation to find Houtu.
"Sister, Houtu is a member of the Wu tribe. Will she disagree with your reincarnation as a human?" Upon hearing that he was going to the Netherworld to find Houtu, Fuxi began to worry. What if Houtu caused some trouble?
Nuwa shook her head and said, "Brother, don't worry. Teacher has already discussed it with Xuan Chu Dao Zun, and Hou Tu will definitely not stop us."
"That's good." Hearing that Hongjun had made arrangements, Fuxi was relieved.
Outside the Gates of Hell, the high shaman Xiang Liu, who was in charge of guarding the gates, saw Nuwa approaching with Fuxi and quickly stopped them, saying, "The Netherworld is a sacred place; no living being may enter. Please retreat immediately!"
"I, Nuwa, have come here by order of my master, Dao Ancestor Hongjun. Please inform fellow Daoist Houtu immediately." The Netherworld was Houtu's territory after all, and Nuwa needed something from her, so she did not choose to force her way in, and her attitude was very friendly.
"Nuwa, the Heavenly Dao Saint?" Upon hearing that Nuwa had arrived, Xiang Liu dared not be negligent. Although the Wu Clan and the Heavenly Dao Sect were at odds, the Heavenly Dao Saint was not someone that a mere Great Wu like Xiang Liu could afford to be disrespectful to.
"Greetings, Goddess Nuwa. Please wait a moment, Goddess Nuwa. I will go and inform Goddess Houtu immediately," Xiang Liu said.
"Thank you for your trouble, Great Shaman Xiangliu," Nuwa nodded and said.
After leaving the Gates of Hell, Xiang Liu traveled all the way to Fengdu City to meet Houtu.
"I respectfully report to the Goddess Houtu that the Sage Nuwa of the Mysterious Sect requests an audience outside the Gates of Hell," Xiang Liu said to Houtu.
"Nuwa has arrived? She's come quite quickly. Xiangliu, please invite Nuwa to Fengdu City," Houtu said.
"yes!"
"Sister, could something have happened?" On the verge of death, seeing that Xiang Liu had not yet returned, Fu Xi began to feel anxious again, worried that Hou Tu might have changed her mind.
Nuwa comforted Fuxi, saying, "Brother, don't worry, there won't be any problems."
At this moment, Xiang Liu returned to the Gates of Hell and said, "Saint Nuwa and Goddess Houtu invite you."
Nuwa, accompanied by Fuxi and Xiangliu, arrived in Fengdu City, where Houtu had been waiting for a long time.
Upon seeing Nuwa arrive, Houtu didn't exchange pleasantries with her, but directly said, "You've arrived? Come with me."
Houtu led the way, with Nuwa and Fuxi following behind. Soon, the three arrived at the Bridge of Helplessness, where Meng Po, the incarnation of Xuanming, was serving bowl after bowl of the Soup of Oblivion to the souls preparing for reincarnation.
"Sister Xuanming!" Houtu finally smiled when she saw Xuanming.
"My sister isn't in Fengdu City, so why has she come to the Bridge of Helplessness?" Xuanming stopped upon hearing Houtu's voice.
Houtu said, "My uncle has ordered me to send Fuxi to be reincarnated as a human."
"Nuwa and Fuxi?" At this moment, Xuanming noticed Nuwa and Fuxi and asked Houtu in confusion, "Sister, Nuwa and Fuxi are demons, so why would Uncle arrange for Fuxi to be reincarnated?"
"Sister, Uncle has his own arrangements for this matter, so don't ask too many questions. Just listen to me." Houtu didn't want Xuanming to know too much, so she didn't tell him the truth.
"Alright then, since it's Uncle's arrangement, I'll do as he says." Xuanming didn't press for details, after all, she couldn't fathom Xuanchu's thoughts.
"Fuxi, if you wish to be reincarnated as a human, please drink this bowl of the Forgetfulness Soup first," Xuanming said, bringing a bowl of the soup to Fuxi as per the custom.
"Do you really want to drink it?" Fuxi was a little reluctant. Although it was his first time in the Netherworld, he had heard of the Forgetfulness Soup.
"Nuwa, this is the rule of my Netherworld. All living beings who are to be reborn must drink the Forgetfulness Soup to forget their past lives so that they can be reborn as clean beings. If you are unwilling to drink it, then I cannot help you." Houtu ignored Fuxi and spoke directly to Nuwa.
Nuwa glanced at the Forgetfulness Soup in Xuanming's hand and secretly transmitted her voice to Fuxi: "Brother, don't worry, I've already looked into it. Although the Forgetfulness Soup can make you forget everything from your past life, you will remember everything from your past life as soon as you recover your Quasi-Saint cultivation."
Hearing Nuwa's words, Fuxi was relieved. He took the Forgetfulness Soup, drank it all, and then said to Nuwa, "Sister, brother is leaving."
Nuwa nodded without saying a word.
Guided by the ghost messengers, Fuxi walked onto the Bridge of Helplessness and headed towards the Six Paths of Reincarnation.
"Nuwa, now that things are done, you should leave quickly. The Netherworld does not welcome you." After Fuxi left, Houtu directly gave Nuwa the order to leave.
Nuwa didn't say anything, and turned away.
