Chapter 428: Chapter 326: We are the same kind of people, Houtu’s purpose!

After thinking it through, Xuanqing drew a cold breath. He never expected this big shot to appear personally at Black Wind Mountain.

“Junior Xuanqing, pays his respects to Earth Queen Lady!” Xuanqing held the Yin-Yang Finger Gesture with both hands and raised it above his head, showing his reverence.

Earth Queen Lady before him was not to be underestimated.

On the surface, as the Mother Earth or Lord of the Earth, she was only equal to Emperor Haotian, the Master of the Heavenly Court.

But if viewed from another angle, her position was far higher than that of the Primordial World’s sages.

Hong Jun united his body with the Heavenly Path and was called Grandpa Heavenly Dao in this world.

Earth Queen Lady, too, united her body with the Earthly Path and was called Sovereign Earth Queen Lady in this world.

Although their powers differed, their positions in this world’s Heaven and Earth were almost the same.

For example, even Xuanqing’s grandmaster ‘Grandpa Taishang’, with his position, was only a subordinate of the Heavenly Dao and couldn’t compare to this Sovereign Earth Queen Lady.

So, this meant… she was an even more powerful figure than Xuanqing’s own ancestor’s lord.

However.

It was rumored throughout the Three Realms that after merging with the Earthly Path, Sovereign Earth Queen Lady had become part of the six paths of reincarnation…

Logically, she shouldn’t be able to leave the Netherworld. But who was this person in front of him?

Xuanqing felt uncertain in his heart.

“Daoist Xuanqing, this ancestor is an incarnation of a thought.”

Perhaps noticing Xuanqing’s thoughts, Earth Queen Lady smiled slightly and casually explained.

Upon hearing this.

Xuanqing couldn’t help but look closely.

Indeed.

Although Earth Queen Lady appeared powerful, her body was in a somewhat illusory state. She had a light and ethereal feeling, not at all like the ‘heavy’ Mother Earth described in the legends.

If she was just a thought incarnation of Earth Queen Lady, that would make perfect sense.

With this in mind.

Xuanqing couldn’t help but ask, “Earth Queen Lady, the gift that you asked A’Da to bring is too precious. This junior… can’t just accept it for nothing!”

Hearing this.

Earth Queen Lady smiled and said softly, “Daoist Xuanqing, you and I are the same kind of person. This ancestor has no hope in the path of the Earth, but I see hope in you!”

The same kind of person?

“What does your highness mean?” Xuanqing was taken aback and couldn’t help but ask.

“On your body, there is the aura of the Earthly Path. Although it is still weak, its level is not low.”

When saying this, Earth Queen Lady paused for a moment, then continued with a hint of sorrow:

“This ancestor doesn’t know which part of the Earthly Path you have merged with, but one day you will reach my level.”

“The reason I give you this Chaotic Oblivion Cauldron is not that I have other motives, but only to hope that you will go further in the path of the Earth!”

After hearing these words.

Xuanqing fell silent.

He originally thought that as long as he didn’t accept the magic treasure, Earth Queen Lady would either give up or take advantage of the situation to make demands, like forming an alliance with the Witch Tribe behind her, or trying to gain benefits from him.

But he never expected that she would have no demands at all, just a pure gift to him, hoping to see him go further in his cultivation.

He didn’t doubt her words.

Because.

At such a level of cultivation that reached heaven and earth, one would not lie about these matters.

Even the shameless actions of the Two Sages of the West could not involve lying about such matters.

“Huh-”

Xuanqing took a deep breath and bowed deeply to her.

Then.

He silently took the Chaotic Oblivion Cauldron that emitted a faint light, hanging in front of A’Da, and put it in his Game Backpack.

Seeing this scene.

Earth Queen Lady smiled. She leaped and sat on A’Da’s shoulder, her gaze fixed on the distant mountains and rivers.

“It’s been a long time since the Ancient War, and finding a Pure Land in the Netherworld is already the best outcome for the Witch Tribe!”

She gently stroked A’Da’s head, her eyes gentle like she was looking at her own child.

After that.

Her figure slowly faded, disappearing into the Black Wind Mountain along with a gentle breeze, leaving only A’Da, who stood hundreds of feet tall, on the spot.

“Um… Master of the Primordial Beginning, I should get going too, see you later!”

A’Da scratched his head and laughed. He didn’t understand what his ancestor said, but he knew that when his ancestor left, he should leave too.

Watching Earth Queen Lady and A’Da leave.

Xuanqing’s eyes were filled with melancholy.

He knew all too well that the words muttered to herself by Earth Queen Lady were meant for him to hear.

From A’Da’s body, he saw the shadow of the Black Bear Essence.

It had been so many years since the distant Ancient War, and even though the Witch Tribe had managed to survive, their long isolation from the outside world meant that they were all pure of heart.

If it were him, he would probably not want the Witch Tribe to return to the world either, lest they be tainted by conflict and lose their hard-won purity.

Perhaps.

It was the best outcome for the Witch Tribe to remain in the Netherworld Pure Land, living a carefree life in their small world!

Back in his room.

He reactivated the barrier in the Great Primordial Hall.

“With so many objects, even without uploading the same type of things, I’ll be busy for a while..”
