Daily Intelligence: From Water Snake to Jinghe Dragon King

Beyond the heavens lies chaos, within the city of Xuandu.

Liu Qing helped the pregnant Hong Gu for a walk in the city.

At first, he casually put the spirit pearl into Hong Gu's body, and Hong Gu became pregnant as expected, but the process of carrying this spirit fetus was extremely long.

It has been ten thousand years since then, yet it has still not appeared in the world.

Originally thinking she could deliver quickly, Hong Gu left the child with Xiao Ya and the others so she could travel around with her husband.

Who knew that after ten thousand years, the child in her womb still refused to come out, let alone let Xiaoya and the others take care of the child.

Eight thousand years ago, the White Snake became pregnant for the second time; five thousand years ago, Sang Qingjun also became pregnant.

Finally, a thousand years ago, the Snail Fairy Xiaoya and the Water-Avoiding Golden-Eyed Beast Shui'er also became pregnant at the same time.

Hong Gu's eyelids trembled as she looked at the child, and she never mentioned again the matter of having Xiao Ya and Bai She'er take care of the child. At the same time, she secretly told the child in her womb to come out a little later.

I must wait until Xiaoya, Baishe'er, Shui'er, and Sang Qingjun have given birth before I come out; otherwise, I'm afraid I'll have to take care of their children.

Liu Qing was also having a headache dealing with several pregnant women. Every day she was either taking care of this one or serving that one, and she never had a moment's rest.

Finally, unable to bear it any longer, they summoned several female immortals from the Jie Sect, including the Holy Mother of Golden Spirit, the Holy Mother of Wudang, the Holy Mother of Fire Spirit, the Holy Mother of Golden Light, the Fairy of Hanzhi, and the Fairy of Colorful Clouds, to accompany them.

Steward Shi, Ji Ping'an, and the eighteen snakes of the Liu family were responsible for serving tea and water, while Liu Qing, along with Crab Left Hand and Shrimp Guest, secretly went to the human world to relax.

The three transformed into mortals, roaming freely throughout the human world, eating meat and drinking wine every day, indulging in the pleasures of life, living a carefree and joyful life.

One day, he arrived in Chang'an.

Outside the walls of the Duke of Zhao's mansion in Chang'an, an old woman was weeping, surrounded by a large crowd.

Shrimp Traveler, eager to see the sights, squeezed in, only to emerge with a gloomy face.

"Sir, do you know who that old woman is?"

Liu Qing, disguised as a mortal, had long since obscured the senses of a sage. Upon hearing Xia Kexing's words, he knew something was amiss and looked over with a mysterious glint in his eyes.

Through the onlookers, Liu Qing recognized the old woman: "Water Demon Grass?"

Back then, the water demon Cao'er ignored my advice and insisted on leaving the Snake Pool to go to the human world to find Changsun Wuji. I never expected that she would end up with her Dao foundation destroyed and her body old and frail.

With a thought, the old woman-like grass instantly appeared in Liu Qing's eyes, as if time had reversed, revealing its past.

A moment later, Liu Qing frowned. When the sage was enraged, the world changed color, and a thunderbolt struck the residence of Duke Changsun Wuji of Zhao, startling him so much that he tumbled off the bed while he was consummating his marriage with his eighteenth concubine.

Liu Qing waved his hand, and in an instant, he brought Xia Kexing, Xie Zuoshou, and Shui Yaocao'er to a separate space.

The water sprite, Cao'er, was now withered and wrinkled, a far cry from her former lively self. She strained to open her cloudy eyes and, upon seeing Liu Qing, burst into tears.

"Master, I deeply regret my actions!"

"When I first came to the human world, the little demon was picked up by Changsun Wuji, and my heart was full of anticipation!"

"But Xiao Yao sacrificed her Dao foundation to give birth to children for Changsun Wuji, causing her to grow old and lose her beauty. In the end, she was abandoned by Changsun Wuji. Xiao Yao is filled with hatred."

Xia Kexing and Xie Zuoshou both had gloomy faces and fierce glints in their eyes, as if they wanted to kill Changsun Wuji with a single palm strike.

Liu Qing sighed, “Grass, when you are hopeful, the world is beautiful; when you are resentful, the world becomes ugly. Whether beautiful or ugly, this is still the world.”

“You were once a subordinate of my Snake Pool. I’m angry that you disobeyed me, but I won’t stand by and watch you be bullied.”

"Thirty years later, the Li family in the mortal realm will be replaced by the Wu Zhou dynasty. Would you be willing to be reincarnated as that empress and personally avenge Changsun Wuji's abandonment?"

The water sprite, Cao'er, said with a face full of hatred, "Master, this little demon is willing!"

Liu Qing carefully transferred Liu Bai's original soul imprint from the vast world into the underworld.

The Ghost Lord of Gaoli, the three great ghost kings, Ksitigarbha, and Di Ting personally escorted Liu Bai's reincarnation all the way.

Watching Liu Bai being escorted into reincarnation, reborn as a human, and placed in the home of a fisherman at the confluence of the Jing and Wei Rivers in Qiandao Lake.

"Since you want to achieve your goals, then I will grant your wish. From now on, Liu Bai will be Liu Bai, no longer Liu Qing."

Liu Qing waved his hand and summoned two snake demons, throwing them into Thousand Island Lake in the mortal realm. If Liu Bai were in trouble, these two snake demons would protect him.

Both snake demons were green bamboo green snakes with bright red tails. They were the demons transformed from the ghosts of the mother and daughter that Liu Qing rescued from the City God's realm in Chang'an.

"In the end, I still owe you. Alas, I will grant you a chance to live forever."

Seeing Liu Bai, the reincarnation of a fisherman's son, living a difficult life, Liu Qing couldn't bear it and immediately made incense out of soil and threw it down.

"Three sticks of incense hang above my head as I inquire about the way; I practice the false to seek immortality—"

"Liu Bai, I look forward to meeting you." (End of Chapter)
