Houtu is infatuated with me, so I made her lean against the wall.

A human village in the central part of the human race, near Mount Buzhou.

This village is adjacent to the tribe of the Wu people.

Therefore, the entire village was a tribe composed of humans and shamans.

Today, the tribe's chieftain is a great sage of the human race named Changxu.

At this moment, a group of humans and shamans from various tribes gathered in front of an earthen house, listening to the screams coming from inside, and praying silently in their hearts.

Because today is the day their tribal chief, Changxu, gives birth.

Just then, the originally bright sky suddenly darkened, and a bright moon hung in the sky, surrounded by countless stars, shining brightly in the sky.

The bright moon shone with its light, enveloping the entire human tribe.

All the humans and shamans felt completely comfortable, and the hidden ailments in their bodies quickly recovered under the moonlight.

Some skilled humans and shamans even used this to break through their cultivation levels.

Upon seeing this scene, the entire human race immediately knelt down and worshipped the bright moon.

As the moonlight shone upon her, Changxu's voice, which had been emitting a mournful scream, gradually calmed down.

A short while later, the sound of a baby crying rang out.

It was at this moment that the bright moon and starry sky disappeared, and the world was once again bathed in light.

"It's a baby! The clan chief has given birth to a girl!"

Inside the tightly closed earthen house, the midwife, holding a baby girl, stepped out with delight and called out to the group of humans and shamans.

Upon hearing this, the group of humans were overjoyed.

Since the Xuanjun now governs the human race, the human race has entered the matriarchal era.

Women's status is higher than men's in this era.

Now that Changxu has given birth to a daughter, coupled with the strange celestial phenomenon that just occurred, how could they not be overjoyed?

Amidst the joyful gazes of the human race, Changxu named his daughter Chang'e.

Chang'e was exceptionally intelligent from a young age and grew up under the careful care of a group of humans.

However, Chang'e was extremely cold and gloomy from a young age, making it impossible for ordinary people to get close to her.

This resulted in Chang'e having a very high reputation within the tribe, but few playmates, making her extremely lonely on a daily basis.

Time passed gradually.

In the blink of an eye, Chang'e turned sixteen.

At this age, human women would already be married and have children.

But Chang'e was different.

Because of the extremely strong chilling aura emanating from her, even some cultivators found it difficult to approach her, let alone ordinary men.

Therefore, even though Chang'e was beautiful, no one dared to approach her.

As Changxu grew old and resigned from his position as chieftain, Chang'e gradually became estranged from the tribe due to her health condition.

Two years have passed in the blink of an eye.

Chang'e's mother, Changxu, has reached the end of her lifespan.

From then on, Chang'e lived alone on the edge of the tribe.

On this day, Chang'e went up the mountain to gather wild fruits to make a living.

But at that moment, they encountered a giant snake that had cultivated itself into a spirit.

Snakes are inherently yin and cold creatures, so how could they resist seeing Chang'e, who exudes extreme yin energy?

It opened its blood-red maw, ready to devour Chang'e.

Chang'e was just an ordinary person who had never practiced any martial arts since childhood. She was unable to practice even the mainstream martial arts of the human race because her meridians were blocked by cold energy.

Faced with this situation, she was immediately terrified and turned pale.

Just when Chang'e thought she was about to die, a sharp arrow pierced through the air and accurately shot through the snake's vital spot.

After struggling for a few moments, the giant snake collapsed to the ground with a thud.

Chang'e looked at the scene before her with surprise and doubt.

"Young lady, are you alright?"

A magnetic voice sounded behind Chang'e.

Upon hearing the sound, Chang'e slowly turned around. Because she had been frightened by the giant snake, a trace of panic still remained on her face.

Such an expression adds a touch of pitifulness to Chang'e's already perfect appearance.

The visitor was so captivated by Chang'e's beauty that he stood frozen in place for a moment.

"Thank you so much, Master, for saving me!"

Chang'e blushed at the person's gaze, lowered her head shyly, and whispered her thanks.

Her voice was melodious, like the gentle song of a nightingale, making people linger and forget to leave.

"Ahem!"

"I am not some great immortal, but merely a high-ranking shaman of the shamanic tribe!"

"Why are you here alone, young lady?"

The person who arrived was none other than Hou Yi.

Previously, after shooting down the suns, Hou Yi had gained a massive amount of merit.

However, due to the injury caused by the Holy Power of Donghuang Taiyi, coupled with the power of the Netherworld Cold Arrow, his Great Witch True Form was destroyed.

So Dijiang and the others took him back to the Pangu Temple to treat his injuries.

It has only recently begun to recover.

Hou Yi was extremely frustrated after years of seclusion, so he decided to go hunting in the mountains to vent his frustration.

Unexpectedly, seeing Chang'e in danger, he stepped in to save her.

After all, humans and witches often intermarry.

Although due to high-level decisions, the human race and the witch race are not as close as before.

However, they will still lend a helping hand when faced with a common enemy.

Moreover, this place is adjacent to the Wu tribe, and both human and Wu tribes are formed by the combination of the two races.

Therefore, Hou Yi had no reason not to take action.

However, he never expected that the human girl he had saved would be so beautiful.

For a moment, Hou Yi felt his heart pounding like a drum.

"I went up the mountain to gather wild fruit because I was hungry, but I never expected..."

"My name is Chang'e, and I thank the Great Witch once again for saving my life!"

Chang'e gave a graceful bow, then turned around to prepare to gather wild fruits.

But at that moment, a subtle magical force struck, causing Chang'e's body to sway and she was about to fall to the ground.

Upon seeing this, Hou Yi rushed forward and embraced Chang'e, asking, "Chang'e, are you alright?"

"No, it's nothing!"

Chang'e blushed deeply upon being in such close proximity to a man for the first time, and her voice became barely audible.

"It's good that you're alright. Let me pick some wild fruit for you!"

Upon seeing this, Hou Yi coughed lightly, helped Chang'e up, and then used his magic to bring down many fruits for her.

"Thank you, Great Shaman. May I ask your name?"

Seeing so many wild fruits, Chang'e felt even more grateful to Hou Yi, and a strange feeling also arose in her heart.

No one in the human tribe dared to approach her.

But Hou Yi was not afraid of the extreme yin energy surrounding her.

With Hou Yi saving her twice, how could Chang'e not be moved?

"I am Hou Yi!"

Hou Yi slowly announced his name.

Upon hearing this, Chang'e lightly covered her lips: "You are Hou Yi, the hero who shot down the suns?"

The legends of Kuafu chasing the sun and Houyi shooting down the sun have been passed down throughout the ancient world for hundreds of years.

Especially among humans.

Humans are already lacking in entertainment these days. Apart from hunting in the mountains, gathering wild fruits in black robes, and practicing various martial arts, they can only listen to the ancient legends of the primordial world.

Therefore, Chang'e was naturally no stranger to Hou Yi.

"You've heard of me too?"

Hou Yi was overjoyed; he hadn't expected that Chang'e had actually heard of his story.

"Of course, if it weren't for you, we would probably still be suffering from the scorching sun!"

"You are the great hero who saved the world!"

Chang'e looked at Hou Yi with a face full of admiration.

Upon hearing this, Hou Yi was about to offer a humble reply when a chilling killing intent suddenly appeared in the shadows.

Hou Yi's expression changed drastically, and he instinctively shielded Chang'e behind him: "Who?"

In the void, when Xihe heard Chang'e recount the ten suns soaring across the sky and praise Hou Yi as a hero, the murderous intent in his heart boiled uncontrollably.

Everything that just happened was her design.

Even the fact that Chang'e was surrounded by extremely yin energy from a young age was something she orchestrated in secret.

Otherwise, even if Chang'e was the reincarnation of half of Changxi's true spirit, her extremely yin energy would be worn away after a thousand lifetimes of reincarnation.

Unless she awakens her past life memories and restores her original nature, Chang'e cannot be entangled by the extreme yin energy.

Moreover, as a half-reincarnation of Chang Xi's true spirit, his aptitude should far surpass that of ordinary people, so how could he not be able to cultivate from childhood to adulthood?

However, Xihe never expected that Chang'e would praise Hou Yi so much and belittle her son.
