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

Chapter 239 The Disaster Erupts, the Lieshan Clan's Decision

Seeing the mountain of peaches piled up in front of her, and then glancing at Liu Er holding a few ginseng fruits and looking at her ingratiatingly, Qin Nian'er proudly raised her head:

"Hmph, don't think that will make me forgive you for mocking me!"

"unless....."

Upon hearing this, Liu Er smiled wryly:

"Junior Sister, it was my fault just now. Tell me, what do you want me to do to forgive you?"

Qin Nian'er gave Liu Er a "you know what's good for you" look, and then slowly said:

"It's not impossible for me to forgive you."

"If you take me and Lingzhuzi to travel through the prehistoric world, I will forgive you."

She was born from chaos, and for a whole era, apart from the Fire Kirin, she has only been accompanied by some mindless chaotic beasts.

What I enjoy most is listening to Huo Lin and Hou Tu describe the interesting stories of the prehistoric world.

Now, although they have come to the prehistoric world, Qin Ming is afraid that Qin Nian'er will encounter danger if she ventures into the prehistoric world, so he strictly forbids her from setting foot in the prehistoric world without permission.

After all, Qin Nian'er was simple-minded.

But the primordial world holds many secrets.

As his daughter, Qin Nian'er's every move was watched by those with ulterior motives.

Although she possessed the strength of a peak Great Luo Golden Immortal, the prehistoric world was rife with deceit and treachery.

If someone harbors malicious intentions and tries to obscure the secrets of heaven, even Qin Ming cannot guarantee that he can discover it in time.

He had just broken through to the next level and urgently needed to go into seclusion to consolidate his cultivation while preparing for the Immortal Sealing War, so he couldn't keep an eye on Qin Nian'er all the time.

Therefore, Qin Nian'er could only wander around the Celestial Court.

This time, they secretly came to the Heavenly Court while Qin Ming and Nuwa were in seclusion.

Now that she's finally got a chance, how could Qin Nian'er let it go?

After hearing Qin Nian'er's words, Liu Er pondered for a moment and nodded:

"Since you wish to travel to the primordial world, then I will take you there."

"However, let me make this clear beforehand: humans are generally weak, so you can't cause any trouble once we reach human territory."

"If I cause a major disturbance among the human race, my teacher will definitely skin me alive."

Qin Nian'er said impatiently:

"When did Fourth Senior Brother become so long-winded? Let's go, let's set off now."

Seeing this, Liu Er shook his head with a wry smile, then picked up the peaches on the ground and rode the cloud with Qin Nian'er and Ling Zhuzi, speeding towards the prehistoric world.

Although it is only a clone of Liu Er at this moment, this clone is the original clone condensed by Liu Er using his body to transform into thousands of forms. When it is fully unleashed, it has the strength of a first-level Hunyuan Daluo Golden Immortal.

Therefore, under Liu Er's guidance, the three of them soon arrived at the lower realm of the prehistoric world.

At this moment, the human race underwent earth-shattering changes.

After resolving most of the food crisis, the human race flourished.

With one birth every ten months, the human population experienced explosive growth.

Today, the human race is found in every corner of the ancient continent.

Even if only one cultivator out of every hundred thousand humans becomes a cultivator, the number of cultivators among the hundreds of millions of humans will still surge.

However, it is inevitable that many humans, in order to accelerate their cultivation, neglect their own foundation, thus being taken advantage of by their inner demons and falling into the demonic path.

Fortunately, the human race is currently enjoying immense fortune.

Even Rahu dared not challenge the human race's might.

Once a human cultivator falls into the demonic path, Rahu will use his great power to capture them in another dimension, where they will lie dormant and wait for the day when the fortunes of the Xuanmen weaken.

In this way, no major chaos was caused among the human race.

As the human population surged, numerous diseases and evils followed.

Most importantly, these pathogenic factors rapidly grow stronger under the nourishment of abundant spiritual energy.

The already weak human race, which relies on grains and cereals for sustenance, inevitably suffers from a large number of illnesses that prevent them from ever recovering.

In severe cases, the soul departs for the netherworld.

As large numbers of humans fell ill and died, humanity issued a warning.

Lieshan, the Earth Sovereign of the human race, frowned deeply:

"How is it? Haven't you found a way to cure this disease yet?"

As the Earth Emperor of the human race, how could Lieshan bear to see so many humans dying from disease?

As soon as the disease broke out, the Lieshan clan sent a great sage of the human race to investigate.

But after so much time, the disease not only failed to be contained, but instead worsened.

This situation enraged the Lieshan clan.

Upon hearing this, the great sages of the human race lowered their heads in shame and remained silent.

Seeing this, Lieshan became even angrier.

But he also knew that this was a test of humanity's survival.

Therefore, Lieshan forcibly suppressed the anger in his heart.

After pondering for a while, Lieshan made a decision:

"Human affairs are temporarily entrusted to you."

"By imperial decree, all those infected with the disease from each tribe shall gather in one place. All others, except those who bring food, shall not have contact with these infected individuals."

"I wish to personally go to find a way to eradicate this disease!"

Upon hearing this, the great sages of the human race were startled:

"Your Majesty, you are the sovereign of humanity; you must not take unnecessary risks!"

"Yes, this disease is unusually powerful. Even some Great Luo Golden Immortal cultivators of the human race cannot resist it. Moreover, this disease is growing stronger and stronger. Although Your Majesty has the cultivation of a Great Luo Golden Immortal, once infected by this disease, your life will be in danger!"

"Indeed, Your Majesty, please reconsider. You are not only the ruler of the human race, but also the princess's father."

"What would Your Highness do if something happened to you?"

Upon hearing the words of the great sages, Lieshan's expression hardened.

The princess they spoke of was a child he had given to him on the shores of the East Sea during his travels through the human realm.

After some calculation, Lieshan learned that this girl was his daughter, so he adopted her and named her Nüwa.

This girl is usually very well-behaved and extremely filial to him.

Although they were not biologically related, the Lieshan clan had long regarded them as family.

However, for some reason, after so many years, the girl is still the size of a five or six-year-old human child, and her mind is the same, which makes Lieshan Clan quite worried.

Hearing the great sages of the human race mention Nüwa caused Lieshan to waver for a moment.

However, Lieshan quickly became resolute:

"I'm entrusting Nuwa to your care during this time!"

"As the ruler of humankind, how can I back down out of fear of danger when humanity is in peril?"

"My mind is made up on this matter; you need not try to persuade me further."

Having said that, Lieshan turned and left.

Seeing this, the great sages of the human race had no choice but to disperse and go on to convey the decree of the Lieshan clan.

On the other side, after dismissing the group of great human sages, Lieshan arrived at his residence. Looking at the girl who was playing happily, a trace of guilt appeared in Lieshan's eyes.

Since he brought the girl back, he has had little time to spend with her due to governing the vast territory of the human race.

Now, he will be away for an even longer period of time.

I don't know when I'll be able to return.

Or perhaps, he will die completely while trying to treat the disease.

In that case, wouldn't the girl lose her loved ones again?

However, he had to do it for the sake of humanity.

He wanted to go and say goodbye to the girl, but he was worried that he would soften his heart if she asked him to stay.

After a long while, Lieshan gritted his teeth, took a deep look at the girl's happy figure, circulated his magic, and rode away on a cloud.
