"Of course I know the suffering of the people after the divine punishment came to earth. If you had taken the Investiture of the Gods and gone down the mountain, you would have immediately started to solve the problems of the human world and eliminated the divine punishment as soon as possible. Why would I have opposed you?"

But look at yourself, you're so slow and indecisive. Even now, Yin Jiao is dead. Are you still planning to go to great lengths to find a ruler for all under heaven?

If we can't find it, are we just going to keep searching? What about the millions of people who are suffering right now?

"Does this divine punishment only end when you find the next ruler of the world?"

Tang Yu spoke like a machine gun, one sentence after another, each word resounding.

Jiang Ziya was speechless for a moment after being bombarded with questions, and a helpless and embarrassed expression appeared on his face.

"When I first came down the mountain, I rushed to Chaoge, intending to let King Yin Shou of Shang resolve the divine punishment. At that time, I was even prepared to present the Investiture of the Gods to him."

But who could have imagined that Yin Shou would think divine retribution was a good thing? He wantonly killed innocent people, forced his queen to her death, and today he cruelly killed his own son.

How can such a person be worthy of being the ruler of the world? I had been looking forward to Yin Jiao becoming the new ruler of the world, but what happened today was too sudden.

Nezha and Yang Jian have already brought Yin Shou's body back to Kunlun Mountain. Once he is resurrected, all problems will be solved. I really didn't intentionally delay!"

Upon hearing this, Tang Yu couldn't help but show a surprised expression. It turned out that their plan was to resurrect Yin Jiao.

Judging from Jiang Ziya's confident demeanor, he seemed certain that this wouldn't take up too much time.

"Your master is Yuanshi Tianzun, right?"

Tang Yu changed the subject, staring intently at Jiang Ziya as he asked.

Jiang Ziya nodded subconsciously, then asked with a puzzled look, "The fairy has never revealed her sect. Could you tell me a little about it?"

Tang Yu ignored Jiang Ziya's question because she truly had no master to speak of.

However, since the Primordial Celestial Venerable is present, resurrecting a person should not be difficult.

"And what about Shen Gongbao? Isn't he one of your disciples? Why is he competing with you for the Investiture of the Gods?"

Tang Yu posed another question, a hint of inquiry in her eyes.

Upon hearing this, Jiang Ziya hurriedly shook his head and quickly began to explain.

"Shen Gongbao is truly not a member of my sect. Why would the fairy have such a misunderstanding? He comes from Jin'ao Island in the East Sea!"

Tang Yu was stunned for several seconds upon hearing this. In her memory, these two were fellow disciples!

Could it be that I remembered it wrong?

"The common people are suffering greatly, and divine retribution is rampant. Why are you the only one chosen to go down the mountain to resolve this matter?"

Look at yourself now, you have no spiritual power at all, any few monsters could easily deal with you.

Entrusting such an important task to you—are you trying to mess it up? Or is there no one else capable of handling things in Kunlun Mountain?

Putting Shen Gongbao's matter aside, Tang Yu continued to press for answers, her tone quite impolite.

Upon hearing this, Jiang Ziya's expression instantly turned extremely ugly. His face flushed red, and he spoke with great emotion.

"Why must you humiliate my sect like this, fairy! I admit that I am of mediocre talent and am not capable of shouldering such a heavy responsibility."

However, once a cultivator touches the Investiture of the Gods, they will lose all their magical power. I have not been cultivating for long enough, so this matter is most suitable for me.

Besides, Nezha and Yang Jian have been assisting us all along, so please don't think that Kunlun Mountain is indifferent to human affairs.

I was ordered by my master to descend the mountain with the Investiture of the Gods, solely to avert divine punishment upon the mortal realm!

This Investiture of the Gods is a treasure left behind by the goddess Nuwa, and it is the key to saving the world!

Tang Yu's mind went blank after hearing this. Would touching the Investiture of the Gods cause him to lose all his magical powers?

She doesn't seem to feel that way.

If she couldn't figure it out, she would put it aside for now and continue to inquire about the situation in Kunlun Mountain.

"I originally thought that as a sage, Yuanshi Tianzun could not directly intervene in human affairs, and that many matters would have to be handled by you disciples."

According to what you just said, the only way to resolve the divine punishment that Kunlun Mountain and even the Primordial Celestial Venerable found was to have you take the Investiture of the Gods down the mountain and find the Lord of the World to issue the list and confer titles upon the gods.

Am I understanding correctly?

Jiang Ziya nodded emphatically and added.

"Many people in my sect were willing to leave the mountain even after losing their magical powers. Fairy, please don't misunderstand me, a cultivator from Kunlun."

Our master and fellow disciples do not wish to see the people of the world plunged into war and chaos, ultimately plunging the world back into disorder!

Tang Yu and Jiang Ziya were clearly not on the same page. She had no prejudice against Kunlun Mountain, but she vaguely felt that everything about it was strange.

As a sage, Yuanshi Tianzun rarely appears in the world. Now it seems that the people of Kunlun Mountain are helpless against the divine punishment.

In her understanding, Yuanshi Tianzun and the principles of Heaven should be able to communicate, right?

Although the rules of each world are different, shouldn't the relationship between them be very close?

Thinking of the Investiture of the Gods that he had already obtained, Tang Yu asked Jiang Ziya again, "Is Yuanshi Tianzun also on Kunlun Mountain?"

After Jiang Ziya nodded in confirmation, Tang Yu instantly took control of Jiang Ziya's body once again. His spiritual energy surged, carrying him towards the direction where E Shun was.

Chapter 6 Investiture of the Gods

Tang Yu recalled the process of seizing the Investiture of the Gods and couldn't help but sigh inwardly.

When she left E Shun on the mountaintop, she thought she would have to fight a fierce battle with Jiang Ziya.

After all, the Investiture of the Gods is of great importance, and the person who guards it must have extraordinary abilities. I never expected that they would succeed so easily.

At this moment, she harnessed her spiritual power, carrying Jiang Ziya back at breakneck speed.

E Shun kept looking up, his eyes fixed on the distance.

The terrifying scene of the sky changing color and lightning flashing was still vivid in his mind, and the horrifying direction was the same direction Tang Yu had left in, which made him extremely anxious, and countless terrible thoughts swirled in his mind.

Now that he has seen Tang Yu return safely, his heart, which had been hanging in suspense, is finally at ease. He rushed forward and hugged the person in front of him tightly.

Feeling E Shun's strong embrace, Tang Yu's heart was filled with tenderness. As she hugged him back, she casually tossed Jiang Ziya aside like a burden.

The two embraced tightly, enjoying the joy of their reunion after the ordeal.

Jiang Ziya, left standing to the side, was covered in dust and felt extremely frustrated.

He simply couldn't understand why this fairy was so gentle and considerate to others, yet so cold and indifferent to him, like the frost of winter.

Jiang Ziya couldn't help but wonder to himself, which sage's disciple was this, whose strength was so extraordinary?

Just as he was wondering, he suddenly realized something astonishing.

This woman touched the Investiture of the Gods, and according to common sense, she should have lost all her magical power. But not only did she carry me flying, but her breathing was also steady, and there was no sign of her magical power being depleted. How is this possible?

Jiang Ziya was so astonished that he couldn't close his mouth. Just as he was about to ask a question, Tang Yu reacted quickly, shooting out a burst of spiritual energy from his fingertips, precisely silencing him and preventing him from uttering a single word.

Turning to look at E Shun, Tang Yu smiled and grasped the other's hand.

“Good idea. I never dared to hope for a reunion before, so I would rather forget those things. Without expectation, there is no disappointment.”

But I'm so happy that my memory has returned today.

Hearing this, E Shun was slightly taken aback. He held Tang Yu and asked with a curious expression.

"Why did you name me Shanjian? Even though I really like the name right away."

Also, the sky was just filled with dark clouds, and there was lightning and thunder. That was the direction you went. Are you alright?

The tone was full of concern. Tang Yu smiled and shook her head, her eyes revealing confidence and ease.

"It's alright, I've already got my hands on the Investiture of the Gods, but there's something more important I need to do now."

As for why I called you Shan Jian, you'll find out in a little while.

Tang Yu knew perfectly well that the Heavenly Dao had used all its means to prevent him from seizing the Investiture of the Gods.

The Heavenly Dao of this world does not seem to be as powerful as imagined.

So next, she has to personally verify a few things.

"what's up?"

E Shun pressed for details, his face filled with worry and curiosity.

Tang Yu playfully tiptoed and gently kissed E Shun's cheek.

E Shun's face instantly turned bright red. He subconsciously glanced at Jiang Ziya beside him and said in a slightly embarrassed voice, "There are people around."

Tang Yu followed his gaze to Jiang Ziya, raised her eyebrows with a smile, and said confidently, "He will pretend he didn't see it."

Jiang Ziya was so embarrassed that he felt like he was sitting on pins and needles. Ever since he met Tang Yu, he seemed to have been caught in a vortex of bad luck, with everything going wrong.

Tang Yu longed to spend more time with E Shun, but the matter of the Investiture of the Gods weighed heavily on her mind, leaving her no peace for even a moment.

Therefore, she decided to go to Kunlun Mountain in person to meet Yuanshi Tianzun, find out what secrets were hidden behind this, and also see what the celestial realm was like.

"Are you going to send me back to Nandu first, and then go to Kunlun Mountain? There are many cultivators there, are you sure there won't be any danger?"

E Shun was filled with worry. He really didn't want Tang Yu to be in danger, but he couldn't bring himself to say anything to stop her because he couldn't think of a better solution.

Tang Yu gently comforted E Shun, seeing his worried expression.

"We've finally reunited, why would I do something that would endanger my life?"

After you return to Nandu, it won't be long before you remember everything, and then you'll realize how interesting this world is.

E Shun was completely confused, but he chose to believe Tang Yu.

Afterwards, Tang Yu led Jiang Ziya and E Shun southwards.

As night fell, they finally arrived.

Tang Yu confined Jiang Ziya to a secluded courtyard, quickly forming hand seals to set up a sturdy barrier that only she could break, ensuring that Jiang Ziya could not escape.

After doing all this, she turned to face E Shun, a mysterious smile in her eyes.

"Haven't you always been curious about why I call you Shanjian? Now kiss me, and you'll remember after you take a nap."

E Shun was still pondering the Investiture of the Gods when Tang Yu's bold and provocative words made him blush with excitement.

His hand trembled slightly as he slowly raised it and gently wrapped it around Tang Yu's waist, the movement as tender as if he were touching a fragile petal.

He slowly lowered his head, his lips gently touching hers with a hint of probing. Sensing Tang Yu's response, the kiss deepened, his lips pressing together gently.
