Volume 1 The Origin Chapter 21 Regarded as a God
Hong glanced at Yu Lan, and seemed to be a little dissatisfied with his indifferent attitude: "At that time, we didn't know why Bai suddenly went crazy and suddenly returned to normal. Nuwa, who is the highest cultivator in our school, has always firmly believed in Bai's character, she thinks that it is the crazy demon clan that has done something on Bai's body, and wants to go to those people to ask for clarification!"
"She wants to go alone?", Yu Lan suddenly asked.
Red nodded in affirmation and continued: "That day, the more than a dozen demon clans were hunting and killing in the forest as usual, and Nuwa could no longer bear the blood that filled the air, and she didn't want to see familiar figures disappear before our eyes again. I still vividly remember that she went to the hunting ground of the crazy guys with that five-colored strange stone alone, and single-handedly knocked down all those people, but did not kill any of them, but only expelled them from the forest, and agreed not to involve each other's territory for a thousand years. But this matter did not end there, those crazy demon clans knew that they were not Nuwa's opponents, and they didn't dare to set foot here for half a step, so they began to unscrupulously torture and devour the creatures living in the periphery, and the ones they took as prey were the human races you see now! They are a very peculiar existence, they can hardly practice by exhaling aura, but they can also slowly transform into human beings. It's just that this process seems to be only possible in their constant change from generation to generation. And they are very weak, and they are usually divided into many small groups and fight each other. Those human races were chased and slaughtered unscrupulously, until one day, the only remaining human races, found out that the demon race was afraid of this forest, so they moved the entire race to the forest, avoiding the danger of extermination, and Nuwa saw that they were pitiful, so she took them in. But Nuwa's behavior completely angered those demon clans, they thought that Nuwa had broken the rules, and asked her to hand over those human races, otherwise they would slaughter all the demon clans in the forest at any cost, and the other demon clans living in the forest persuaded her to hand over the human race in order to protect herself, but Nuwa never couldn't bear to let these human races die in vain, and those people didn't even remember Nuwa's protection grace in the past, and spoke coldly to her. In desperation, Nuwa planned to resist these things by herself and take risks alone again, but Bai and Qing couldn't rest assured, so they followed. As a result, the four of us fought with those dozen demon clans for three days and three nights, and in the end, if it weren't for Nuwa's self-inflicted cultivation to urge this five-colored strange stone, and hit the other party's leader into serious injuries and retreated, I am afraid that we would have died on the spot. Nuwa, on the other hand, was seriously injured in that battle and could no longer transform into a full human form, but she never regretted it. And when those Terrans saw her attack that day, they revered her like a god in awe, and from then on they obeyed her, and under her leadership, they migrated from the forest to this valley, put aside internal strife, and coexisted peacefully, and prospered day by day. But in recent years, the activities of those demon clans outside the forest seem to have become more frequent again, so Qingcai and I have been guarding the lake to prevent them from entering the forest again to poison the creatures. If they knew that Nuwa had lost the stone in her hand, they would probably ......."
"I'm afraid, they would have rushed into the forest and killed you all......," Yu Lan said in a deep voice, frowning.
Hong's expression was solemn, and he nodded heavily, with a bit of request in his tone: "So, since you can't leave here for a while, I hope that you can take on this responsibility for her, and it is not impossible to become another god of the human race."
Yu Lan was silent for a moment when he heard this.
"Oh, this stone was delivered to me by myself, and I didn't steal it, I didn't rob it, I didn't cheat it, and if I said no, you shouldn't have anything to say, right? Yu Lan fiddled with the stone in his hand and put on a posture of indifference.
Hong looked at Yu Lan, a trace of disappointment flashed in his eyes, but it quickly turned into indifference: "That's your freedom, in short, I already know everything you want to know, how to decide, I have no right to interfere." If you really don't plan to continue guarding this place, then you must promise me not to use that stone in front of anyone, or Nuwa will surely die......
"Hehe, I still don't know what this thing is for, I don't want to promise you this," Yu Lan said nonchalantly.
"You'll know slowly, I'm leaving, you go and make it clear to her yourself", Hong dropped a sentence and walked down the mountain without looking back.
Seeing this, the white kitten jumped off Yu Lan's shoulder and followed behind Hong.
By this time the sun had sunset, and an incomplete full moon had taken its place to bring light to the earth.
Yu Lan looked at the back of Hong's departure in the moonlight with mixed feelings, he naturally knew how important this stone was to them.
However, he asked himself that his strength was not at all tenths or twelve of the young, let alone the strongest of them Nuwa, even if he took on this burden with righteousness, I am afraid that he would not be able to protect anyone. What's more, now he thinks that as long as he can find the so-called immortal, there may be a glimmer of hope to go home.
Yu Lan shook his head vigorously, got up and walked towards the mouth of the cave.
And Nuwa sat curled up in the shadow of the entrance of the cave, surprisingly quiet.
"Did you hear what we just said?"
Nuwa's body in the shadows seemed to tremble and did not answer.
"Even though we're meeting for the first time, I'm sure you should feel the same way I do, as if we've known each other for a long time. If it weren't for the fact that I knew that I didn't belong here, I might have fallen in love with you from the first time I saw you......."
Nuwa, who was hiding in the dark, raised her head and looked at Yu Lan standing in the moonlight, her eyes flickering.
"But I have to go back! my loved ones are still waiting for me there, and I don't belong here. This stone was given to me by you, thank you for your trust in me, and I know that it is very important to you. ...... I promise you that until I find a way to return home, even if I lose my life, I will not let those wicked people hurt you and your Terran!", Yu Lan, who wanted to explain it to Nuwa and left in style, was still ruthless in the end, still unwilling to see anyone hurt because of him.
"What you said is true, are you really willing to stay for a while?", Nuwa slowly walked out of the shadows, her eyes full of tears but still smiling.
