Starting with Hyuga, traversing countless heavens

Chapter 184 The Mystery of the Celestial Maiden

"It's purely based on looks. I don't know why, but among the many celestial maidens who accompanied him, Chi You only fell in love with Ya at first sight."

Was Chi You blind?

Hinata Hoshino carefully examined the glass in front of her that looked exactly like Amber, then recalled the ordinary and unremarkable Aya, and uttered a soul greeting.

"Wasn't the primary goal of those primitive people for the sake of their offspring? Logically speaking, shouldn't they have been interested in that kind of... you know... woman? Why would Chi You have taken a liking to Ya?"

"She used a method, something that can make someone fall in love with another person at first sight. The celestial maidens call it love."

Celestial maidens cannot develop emotions. If they do, the Queen Mother of the West will extract those emotions, erase the celestial maiden's memory, and then refine those emotions into an elixir called "Emotion."

Simply feed them by hand, and they will be completely devoted to the person who fed them.

"Wow, what a domineering thing."

"Yes, this kind of thing is attached to the soul, and it will still work even if only the soul is left."

No wonder the first thing Chi You did after waking up was to find Ya and have a child with her.

"Eat it!"

Before Amber could say anything more, Hinata Hoshino threw the pill in. Amber swallowed it, collapsed onto the bed, and what she heard before falling made her uneasy.

“I heard from that imposter Queen Mother of the West that Ya will come to my rescue.”

Hinata Hoshino rested his hand on Kohaku's wrist, his Tenseigan carefully observing how the elixir of immortality would work.

Starting from the dantian, the qi flows throughout the body, gradually repairing itself. The medicine in the blood vessels is absorbed or excreted, and vitality is quickly replenished. Finally, the remaining medicinal power is completely absorbed, and no side effects are noticed.

Hinata Hoshino nodded in satisfaction. Not bad, it's just that the life extension period is a bit short.

"Where am I? Who am I? What am I supposed to do?"

With an exaggerated tone, Hinata Hoshino's lips twitched. "Trying to mess with me again?"

"This is my home, and you are my wife. You should do what we should do together."

"Oh."

Then, she felt a little hot, and Hinata Hoshino didn't stop her. Hinata Hoshino couldn't quite tell who was in control now.

She looked up at Hinata Hoshino casually, and their eyes met.

"Continue? Why aren't you continuing?"

“I have two children.”

"Perfect, hehehe."

"not human!"

"Alright, Amber, pretending to have amnesia and pretending to be someone else is really pointless. What do you think about Aya coming to deal with me?"

"Ya, you're no match for me."

"What if she uses that kind of thing too?"

"It only works on virgins and innocent people."

"You mean I'm not innocent?"

"No, you are not a virgin."

"You arrived so early back then?"

"I arrived when your nephew asked for something."

"How about it?"

"How would I know if you didn't make it on site?"

No, I think you should know.

"ah!"

Amber let go of his hand, feeling that she couldn't bear to lose it. She now felt that Hinata Hoshino was truly shameless.

"You are utterly shameless."

Hinata Hoshino flashed a bright smile, revealing her pearly white teeth.

"There is still something there. Now that things are over, let's go down the mountain as soon as possible so that Liuli and her family can be reunited."

What if I don't want to leave?

"Liuli doesn't want to either?"

She thought, "I have a question that I can't get an answer to, and I hope you can help me."

"A problem with your soul?"

"you know!"

"I don't know, it's just a guess, but your soul is indeed different from ordinary people. It's just that I don't know why."

"Different? How are they different?"

“I just glanced at Kunlun. The soul aura of every celestial maiden on Kunlun is from the same source, as if they are souls born from the same body.”

"How could this be? Impossible!"

"Why is it impossible? May I ask, are you celestial maidens transformed from the Black Bird?"

"Yes, that's right, but..."

Amber paused halfway through her sentence, realizing the problem: they were clearly transformed from the Black Bird, so why couldn't they revert to their original forms?

Whether in Kunlun or on Earth, none of these celestial maidens could revert to their original forms, which was strange, even terrifying.

Amber remembered clearly that when her original form perished, she vanished on the spot in human form, not in the form of a black bird.

"This...this...how is this possible! How is this possible?"

"Master, what's wrong with our ancestor?"

Amber looked dazed, as if she couldn't accept the blow. The next moment, her eyes changed, probably because Liuli came out and took control of her body.

"It's nothing, I just can't take the blow. Let's go home, don't you miss your daughter?"

"This? Very well, thank you so much for your great kindness and virtue, Daoist. I have no way to repay you, I can only repay you in my next life."

"seriously?"

"seriously."

"I'll take that seriously. I hope they won't go back on their word later."

"Ha! Amber, glass, jade, these reincarnation names are all sparkly and quite valuable."

His gaze continued toward Kunlun. To be honest, Hyuga Hoshino was a little curious about how the imposter Queen Mother of the West managed to do it.

The soul is conceived in the body of a black bird, and after the soul is born, it is placed into a body.

The Reincarnation Eye scanned the surroundings on Kunlun Mountain, ignoring the location of the Kunlun Mirror.

No. No? Still no.

Before even seeing the mountain, the X-ray vision was doubled, and through the mountain, a black bird was bound by countless shackles. Within this black bird, a soul was being conceived, but very slowly. At this rate, it would probably take at least a thousand years, or even longer, for a soul to be born.

Beside the black bird, there was a large stone chamber containing several infant-like objects immersed in transparent glass pillars.

Amber told Hinata Hoshino that since she became conscious, no new celestial maiden had been born on Kunlun; there had only been celestial maidens being promoted or demoted.

So that’s it!

Hinata Hoshino shook his head, carefully observing the restrictions on Kunlun. These restrictions might have some clues, but of course, they couldn't possibly have "I was here" written on them like Zhang Chulan.

Based on the dragon and phoenix seals known to Hinata Hoshino, these restrictions include the absolute control of the Lord of Kunlun and the certification of the residents. Apart from the beings permitted by the Queen Mother of the West, only the Queen Mother of the West herself and the Black Bird are allowed to live on the mountain. This should be the protection left by the Queen Mother of the West before she left.

Without the Queen Mother of the West, could Kunlun really be defended?

Judging from the strength of those celestial maidens, apart from being strong and able to unleash lightning when wearing feather robes, they seem to have no other abilities.

Therefore, the imposter Queen Mother of the West is either the locked-up Black Bird or a descendant of the Black Bird.

If it's the former, then she's a ruthless person; if it's the latter, then she's too filial.

As for not being able to have feelings, it's probably because they're afraid that if the celestial maiden had feelings, she might trace her origins and discover something amiss.

Chapter 185 Lu Family Birthday Banquet

Hinata Hoshino looked at the new time travel opportunity that appeared after the New Year. He wanted to give it a try, but his previous painful experience made him hesitate.

A bunch of modern, youth dramas, comedies, spy dramas—all completely useless. Apart from the chance to travel back to the Hokage, Hyuga Hoshino can be said to have been trying to find a powerful and safe world.

However, I haven't been able to find it.

Time flies when you're cultivating on the mountain; seven years have passed in the blink of an eye. Zheng Zibu rushed over excitedly, and Hyuga Hoshino calculated the time and figured it was probably the Lu family's birthday banquet.

As for Aya, who wanted to assassinate Hyuga Hoshino, Hyuga Hoshino hasn't seen her yet. Last time he glanced at her with his Tenseigan, he found that she was still going through the motions and hadn't even left Kunlun.

"Senior brother, the Lu family's birthday banquet has sent an invitation. Our sect leader asked me to ask you if you're going or not."

"Of course I want to go."

As someone who enjoys watching entertainment, how could I not go see the famous scenes of Wang Ai being rejected in her love affair and Lu Jin crying after being slapped?

Hinata Hoshino jumped onto Nobeta's back. Zheng Zibu looked around and saw no other means of transportation, which meant he also wanted to get on.

Zheng Zibu's eyes shone with light. In the entire Maoshan Mountain, only Hyuga Hoshino and the Taoist priest among them had ever been there.

Norbert doesn't mind other people getting close, but she hates it when other people use her as a means of transportation, so Zheng Zibu felt a surge of excitement.

Immediately afterward, Norbert took off. Zheng Zibu was somewhat disappointed when he saw Norbert take off, and then puzzled. He couldn't very well let him walk there by himself.

"Senior brother, how do I get there?"

Hinata Hoshino pointed to the hanging basket that Nobeta's claws were gripping. Zheng Zibu scratched his head, a little disappointed, but still, it was alright.

"Go up."

The extraordinary people seem to possess a dazzling array of Qi techniques and amazing innate abilities, but flight is a relatively rare ability.

Zheng Zibu obediently climbed into the gondola, and the Norbert flapped its wings, soaring into the sky at high speed.
