Primordial Era: Something's Wrong with This Generation of Witch Clan

Chapter 100: The Rise of the Western Zhou Army – The War Between Heaven and Man Officially Begins

After agreeing on the matters concerning the evening and the year with the Great Golden Crow, Pan Huang began to bring up other festivals such as the Qixi Festival and the Ghost Festival. This was partly to enrich the lives of the human race, and partly to gain merit. ♡💣 ❻➈丂ⓗยⓧ.𝓒σ𝓶 💙💝

Besides festivals, Panhuang also began to consider the needs of the human race in terms of clothing, food, housing and transportation. At present, the only way to gain a lot of merit in a short period of time is to unify the currency. If this is accomplished, the merit will be considerable.

Thinking of this, Pan Huang had Ruyi summon the Treasure-Losing Coin.

Not long after Pan Huang founded the Lingbao Clan, this Luobao Golden Coin came to him and eventually became a member of the Lingbao Clan.

"Great Clan Chief, you wanted to see me?" Soon, a child who looked to be only seven or eight years old walked into the Holy Palace.

"Little Bao, would you like a great merit?" Pan Huang asked, looking at the Falling Treasure Coin.

"I want it!" Luo Baojin didn't hesitate at all. If she didn't even want the merit, what else could she want?

"Take this jade slip and go to Chaoge to find Zhao Gongming. He will make the arrangements for you." Pan Huang handed Luo Baojin a jade slip and then said this to him.

"Yes, Great Clan Chief!" Luo Baojin nodded and then left.

"I'm so bored. Can I move around a bit?" Pan Huang said, rubbing his chin after Luo Baojinqian left.

"Xihe, Changxi, would you like to travel to the prehistoric world?" Panhuang asked the sisters.

"Does my husband wish to travel to the primordial world?" Xihe looked at Panhuang, her eyes sparkling with anticipation.

"I have that idea!" Pan Huang nodded.

"Then let's go for a walk in Hongguang!" Chang Xi nodded quickly.

"My lord, this is not appropriate!" Xihe said at this moment.

"Why?" Chang Xi asked, puzzled.

"Now that my husband has become a saint, if we rashly travel through the primordial world, it may attract the attention of other saints. They may then intervene in this battle between heaven and man, and we may suffer losses!" Xihe analyzed the current situation.

"It's alright, we can just go to the prehistoric world in the form of clones!" Pan Huang said with a smile.

The next second, a handsome young man dressed in black walked out of his body.

Xihe and Changxi exchanged a smile upon seeing this, and then two beautiful figures emerged from their bodies.

"Let's go! It's been so many years since I've traveled through the primordial wilderness!" Panhuang's clone said with a smile.

"My lord, we should have a name as we travel through the primordial world, shouldn't we?" Xihe said.

"I'll call myself Chang'e!" Chang Xi said first.

"Then I'll call myself Chang Shu!" Xi He said after thinking for a moment.

"Then I'll call myself Wu Gang!" Pan Huang said with a smile when he heard Chang Xi and the others say that.

"Then let's set off!" Chang'e said, linking her arm with Wu Gang's.

After leaving Shouyang Mountain, the first place Wu Gang and his companions chose was the coast of the East China Sea.

Looking at the human race on the shore of the East China Sea, Wu Gang smiled. The human race here was the first batch created by the goddess Nuwa. This place is the foundation of the human race and the last line of defense for the human race.

As long as this place stands, humanity will not fall.

After spending several months on the shores of the East China Sea, Wu Gang brought Chang Shu and Chang'e to Xiqi, wanting to see how it differed from the Xiqi of his previous life.

Upon entering Xiqi, Wu Gang saw countless temples, large and small, scattered throughout the city.

The people here have a morbid faith. They live well, and everyone is healthy, but you can rarely see children on the streets. Most of them are elderly, weak, women, and children.

Xiqi was training its troops. From time to time, a figure would fly across the sky. These were cultivators from the Heavenly Court. Sometimes, some commoners would bump into these cultivators and beheaded the next second. But the people around them did not feel sadness; instead, they felt disgust and contempt.

"Husband, let's go." Chang'e noticed that Wu Gang's expression was a little unpleasant and said softly.

"Let's go!" Wu Gang nodded after hearing Chang'e's words.

After leaving Xiqi, Wu Gang breathed a long sigh of relief. He felt relieved. The human race had its own direction for development, and as long as the human race survived, there was nothing he could do to help the rest.

After leaving Xiqi, Wu Gang and his group arrived in Chaoge. They were discovered by Zhao Gongming and others the moment they entered Chaoge.

Wu Gang's aura was concealed, so they couldn't detect it at all, but Zhao Gongming and the others could still detect the auras of Chang'e and Chang Shu.

"Don't worry about your master, just do your own thing." Just as Zhao Gongming and the others were about to come and pay their respects, Wu Gang's voice appeared in their minds.

After receiving their master's order, they stopped and made Wu Gang and the others disappear.

"The people of Chaoge are truly blessed," Chang Shu said with a smile after seeing the clothes and smiles on the faces of the people of Chaoge.

"Yes!" Wu Gang nodded.

Emperor Xin was actually a very good ruler, at least before he was tricked by Zhunti.

"Let's rent a small courtyard here and live here for a while," Wu Gang suddenly said.

"Okay!" Chang Shu nodded.

Afterwards, Wu Gang rented a small shop on the street and opened a wood carving shop there, mainly selling wood carvings.

Time flies, and three years have passed. During these three years, Wu Gang, Chang Shu, and Chang'e lived like an ordinary couple. They would haggle with customers over small profits and be happy when they sold an extra wood carving that day.

That day, Wu Gang opened his shop as usual, but he noticed that the atmosphere on the street seemed a bit off. The people no longer had their usual smiles; instead, their faces showed anger.

After making inquiries, Wu Gang discovered that it was Xiqi that had raised an army. They had been preparing for three years and finally issued a proclamation to suppress them.

In his proclamation, Ji Chang portrayed Emperor Xin as a tyrant. He exaggerated Emperor Xin's abolition of the licentious rituals, claiming it was against the will of Heaven and that he was a foolish ruler who disregarded the lives of the people for his own selfish gain, plunging the entire human race into misery.

Now, Marquis Xibo has raised a righteous army to punish the tyrant Di Xin and restore a bright and clear world for the human race.

The people of Chaoge scoffed at this proclamation, but the people of Xiqi were completely unaware of it.

As early as when the Heavenly Court moved into Xiqi, the flow of information between Xiqi and Chaoge was prohibited, so the people of Xiqi only heard what Ji Chang wanted them to hear.

The people of Xiqi showed great enthusiasm when faced with this proclamation.

Looking at the soldiers before him, Ji Chang said that the morale of the army was good, and then led the soldiers all the way to Yanshan. After arriving at Yanshan, Ji Chang ordered the troops to stop.

Before setting off, he consulted a fortune teller and learned that he would have a great opportunity while in Yanshan.

However, Yun Zhongzi arrived at Yanshan earlier than Ji Chang. Back when Fengming Qishan, Pan Huang had already told Yun Zhongzi that his disciple was in Yanshan and that he should wait for him there.

Just after Ji Chang's army had set up camp in Yanshan, a thunderbolt struck less than ten miles from his camp.

"My time has come," Ji Chang said with a smile after seeing the thunder.

He then led his personal guards toward the direction where the thunderbolt had struck, but there were already people there.

After the thunderclap struck, Yun Zhongzi arrived at the scene immediately. When he saw the infant covered in lightning, a smile appeared on his face. This was his disciple.

Looking at Ji Chang who was approaching, Yun Zhongzi pointed to the roadside, and a stubborn rock transformed into an infant that appeared in the crater where the thunder had struck. He then silently left Yanshan with the original infant in his arms.

Not long after Yun Zhongzi left, Ji Chang arrived here. When he saw the baby, he couldn't stop smiling.

"I am destined to have a hundred sons in my lifetime. These are my hundred sons. When they arrive, my heart's desire will be fulfilled." Looking at the child in his arms, Ji Chang said with a smile.

"Since you were born from thunder, let's call you Lei Zhenzi," Ji Chang said with a smile, looking at the dazed baby in his hands.

Seeing this, Yun Zhongzi, who was hiding in the clouds, looked at the child in his arms and said, "From now on, you will also be called Lei Zhenzi."

In Chaoge, after Yun Zhongzi took Lei Zhenzi away, Wu Gang sensed it and a smile appeared on his lips.

That smile vanished in an instant, and then he greeted the woman and the child beside him with a beaming smile once again.

After resting for two days in Yanshan, Ji Chang set off again.

After several days of marching, Ji Chang arrived at Peach Blossom Ridge. From Peach Blossom Ridge, one can go directly to Jiameng Pass, which is now guarded by the Four Generals of the Mo Family.

In this life, the positions of gods in the Heavenly Court have been filled by the disciples of sages and the demon race, so those familiar faces from the previous life are still serving in Chaoge.

"Hmph! This Ji Chang really dares to come! Since he dares to come, Jiameng Pass will be the place where he dies." Mo Liqing snorted coldly.

"We are the righteous army of Xiqi. Why don't you surrender quickly, or we can leave you with a whole corpse?" Upon arriving at Jiameng Pass, Nangong Shi rode forward and coldly said this to the four generals of the Mo family.

"Hmph! You, as human beings, have actually colluded with the Heavenly Court and betrayed my human race. Today is the day you perish." Mo Lishou's eyes were filled with rage.

After saying that, Mo Lishou patted the cloth bag at his waist, and the Flower Fox Sable immediately rushed out, transforming into a giant beast as it charged towards the Xiqi army.

"Form ranks!" Nangong Shi snorted coldly.

The troops of Xiqi sprang into action instantly, forming a large formation within a few breaths. This formation actually blocked the attack of the Flower Fox Sable, which made Mo Lishou's eyes narrow.

He could tell that the soldiers were not ordinary people, but they were not cultivators either. Their auras were a bit strange. After thinking for a while, Mo Lishou's eyes blazed with anger.

"Dao soldiers! Damn it, you actually turned my human sons into Dao soldiers!" Mo Lishou gritted his teeth and looked at Ji Chang.

Ji Chang's expression didn't change at all after hearing Mo Lishou's words; he even showed a smug look.

"Kill!" Mo Lihai took out his jade pipa and began to play it.

As Mo Lihai played his instrument, ripples appeared in the air, and the great formation composed of Dao soldiers began to fluctuate.

Mo Lihong took out the Hunyuan Umbrella, Mo Liqing took out the Qingyun Sword, and Mo Lishou summoned the Flower Fox Sable again.

Under the attack of the four demon generals, the great formation shattered directly, and about one-tenth of the 100,000 soldiers were killed or wounded instantly, but this did not stop Xiqi's advance at all.

Because the Heavenly Soldiers of the Heavenly Court rushed over from somewhere, they mingled among the Taoist soldiers and began to attack Jiameng Pass.

After resisting for two days, the four Mo generals fled with their personal guards, and Ji Chang captured Jiameng Pass.

However, what he didn't know was that Jiameng Pass was actually abandoned by the four demon generals, and the soldiers inside the pass were not human soldiers at all, but scarecrows transformed into dummies.

The reason they did this was actually arranged by Kong Xuan. Kong Xuan had the four Mo family generals hold off Xiqi for a while, and then pretend to be defeated and escape, so that they could taste a little success and make Xiqi become arrogant.

Not only Jiameng Pass, but also Qinglong Pass and Sishui Pass below Jiameng Pass, Kong Xuan instructed that if they could eliminate the remaining forces of Xiqi, they should do so; if they could not, they should flee and finally reunite at Jiepai Pass to engage in the final battle with Xiqi.

Seeing the four generals of the Mo family flee in a sorry state, Ji Chang revealed a smug look on his face. His Xiqi Fengming Qishan was a righteous army, and the people of Chaoge were no match for Xiqi.

However, Jiang Ziya and Ji Fa, who were standing to the side, showed a hint of doubt on their faces. They vaguely sensed that something was wrong. The four generals of the Demon Clan actually had the strength to defeat them, but in the end they actually stopped, which was very unusual.

However, upon seeing the smug smile on Ji Chang's face, Ji Fa and Jiang Ziya chose to remain silent. At this moment, they could not offend Ji Chang, otherwise they would be disrupting the morale of the army.

When Bo Yikao, who was standing next to Ji Chang, saw Ji Fa and Jiang Ziya exchanging glances, his anger surged even more. He was clearly the eldest son, but Jiang Ziya was befriending Ji Fa. Where did this leave Bo Yikao?

"Hmph! Once we take Chaoge, I will kill you all." Bo Yikao lowered his head, his eyes flashing with cold killing intent.

Chaoge, the Nine-Room Palace.

When Di Xin heard the news that Ji Chang had captured Jiameng Pass, his expression did not change, because Kong Xuan had already discussed it with him; this was nothing more than luring the enemy deeper into their territory.

But while Emperor Xin wasn't in a hurry, Wu Gang was getting anxious!

He was just waiting for the great war between heaven and man, otherwise, how could the primordial world be shattered and how could the witch race be born?

"What exactly is going on?" Wu Gang called Zhao Gongming over and asked.

"Master, this is the idea of ​​my nephew Kong Xuan. He said we should lure the enemy deep into our territory and then wipe out Xiqi in one fell swoop at Jiepai Pass," Zhao Gongming said, cupping his hands in greeting.

"No way!" Wu Gang said coldly.

"This is a war between heaven and man, concerning the way of heaven and the way of man. How can Kong Xuan be so sure that he can wipe out Xiqi in one fell swoop at Jiepai Pass? How does he know if the sage will make a move? This won't do. Tell him to do his best to kill the Xiqi army, preferably all of them, and then force the sage out. As long as the sage makes a move, I will also make a move." Wu Gang said to Zhao Gongming.

"Yes, Master, I will pass on the message to my nephew Kong Xuan immediately." Zhao Gongming nodded.

After Zhao Gongming returned, he found Kong Xuan and relayed Wu Gang's words to him. Upon hearing this, Kong Xuan immediately changed his strategy.
