Chapter 114 True Spirit?
Chapter 114 True Spirit?
Not far from the city of the Kingdom of Women, by the banks of the Mother-Child River, Lu Yu stood under a weeping willow, silently gazing at the clear river water, his thoughts unknown.
At that moment, a chilly voice came from beside him, "Why didn't you say goodbye to that young girl? You clearly know she likes you."
Lu Yu turned his head and saw a stunningly beautiful woman dressed in white, so gorgeous that common phrases like 'sinking fish and falling geese, shutting the moon and shaming flowers' seemed pale in comparison. She was cradling a snow-white rabbit in her arms, which was looking at Lu Yu with a strange expression.
Lu Yu recognized the visitor; she was none other than Chang'e, the wife of Hou Yi from the Witch Tribe and the master of Guanghan Palace, known as the most beautiful woman across the three realms.
He laughed and said, "Lunar Deity, instead of staying in your Guanghan Palace, what brings you to meddle in my trivial matters?"
Chang'e replied, "I can't stand the sight of you men, heartless and disloyal, betraying the heartfelt affection of a young girl."
"The distance between immortals and mortals only adds to our grief, yet, Lunar Deity, you, for the sake of resurrecting Hou Yi, isolated so many in the Kingdom of Women from the world, causing countless infants to die in vain. What are your thoughts on this!" Lu Yu retorted sarcastically.

Having met Hou Yi, he had understood the true nature of the Kingdom of Women, merely an experimental ground established by the deity to resurrect her husband, utilizing the Lunar Energy to spawn life, where extreme yin produced yang and innate yang energy emerged from the Abortion Spring. Thereafter, attempts were made to fuse yin and yang, harnessing this Energy of Creation to resurrect Hou Yi.
Chang'e listened to Lu Yu's words but wasn't angered; instead, she sighed lightly and said, "The union of yin and yang brings forth all life. Since the dawn of heaven and earth, the three realms have been devoid of the Energy of Creation. I once pleaded with Empress Nuwa, who is most skilled in creation, but to no avail."
"So I thought of this method, regardless of how much time it would take, I must resurrect my husband. However, fate is unpredictable; although I succeeded in refining the Energy of Creation and reactivating my husband's body, his soul was gone."
Lu Yu listened, dumbstruck; he was unaware of when he had such power. Clearly, a person whose True Spirit had perished, why, upon meeting him, did it bizarrely reappear?
He couldn't help but swallow his saliva and said, "Are you sure that was Hou Yi's True Spirit?"
At that moment, what flashed first through Lu Yu's mind was that terrifying figure glimpsed in a moment of shock, and the strange contamination left behind. He was deeply afraid that a frightening monster might grow inside Hou Yi's body, and without realizing it, cold sweat had already soaked his back.
Chang'e didn't know what exactly Lu Yu had thought of, but she still said truthfully, "That is naturally my husband's True Spirit. How could I possibly mistake it?"
Lu Yu, however, frowned and said, "I do not know why Hou Yi's True Spirit suddenly appeared after seeing me, but just to be safe, you should go to the Underworld to meet Empress Hou Tu and report this matter to her. If it really is Hou Yi's True Spirit, all is well. If not, then there will be trouble!"
Lu Yu's tone was somber, carrying an inexplicable meaning that made the cold and gorgeous fairy of the Guanghan Palace feel somewhat uneasy. She realized that this person, whose cultivation was not very long, seemed to be shrouded in layers of fog, making it impossible to see clearly.
"Do you know something?" she asked urgently, concern for her husband's resurrection making it impossible for her to maintain her usual icy demeanor.
Lu Yu recalled the situation again, hastily interrupting the memory. Lord Lu Ya, previously known as the Eastern Emperor Taiyi, had told him that frequent recollection could easily lead to second-time contamination. Thus, he said with a hint of fear in his tone, "I have seen some terrifying creatures, even recalling them can lead to contamination, and thereby bring forth insanity and malevolence. I am very afraid that Hou Yi's True Spirit arose because of this!"
On hearing this, Chang'e furrowed her brows, Lu Yu's words were too shocking to hear, such power was unimaginable and unheard of in the Three Realms.
"Since you've said so, I will go to the Underworld at once to seek an audience with the Empress!" Concerned about her husband's life and death, Chang'e dared not be the slightest bit negligent and immediately agreed.
Relief washed over Lu Yu the moment he heard her response. As long as this news reached Empress Hou Tu, with her imminent transcendence, she naturally should be aware of the terrifying beings beyond the Three Realms, ensuring that this matter was in safe hands.
