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

Chapter 89 Xia Jie's Tyranny, Yao Ji Descends to Earth

Upon hearing the Jade Emperor's voice, the Great Golden Crow revealed a smug smile.

"Is there anything else, Jade Emperor?" the Great Golden Crow asked with a smile as it turned around.

"Do you only want one Ziwei Emperor?" the Jade Emperor asked.

"what you think?"

"That's certainly not enough," the Jade Emperor said with a smile.

"I'll give you ten thousand true immortals to serve as heavenly soldiers," the Great Golden Crow replied upon hearing the Jade Emperor's words.

"That's all. If you don't agree, I, the Crown Prince, will not take the position of the Ziwei Emperor. Staying in Wanyao Mountain is just fine."

"Very well, I agree." The Jade Emperor thought for a moment and then nodded.

"It's a pleasure to cooperate, Your Majesty!" The Great Golden Crow smiled, cupped its hands to the Jade Emperor, and then left.

"Your Majesty, you've agreed so easily?" After the Golden Crow left, the Queen Mother asked with some doubt.

"Agreed."

"Why?" the Queen Mother asked, puzzled.

"The demon race is not monolithic. Even when Emperor Jun was alive, there were still people like Kunpeng. I believe I can recruit a group of talented individuals, after all, this is the Heavenly Court." The Jade Emperor said with a smile, looking in the direction where the Great Golden Crow had left.

When the Queen Mother saw the confident smile on the Jade Emperor's face, a smile also appeared on her face.

Before long, the news that the demon race had joined the Heavenly Court spread throughout the prehistoric world. When the myriad races of the prehistoric world heard this news, their first reaction was confusion.

Although the Heavenly Court is nominally the ruler of the Three Realms, the Earthly Realms are not under its jurisdiction. While the Primordial Wilderness is within the Heavenly Court's jurisdiction, the Nine Provinces of the Human Race are not, nor are the Daoist temples of the Sages.

Other powerful races are not included in this scope; the Heavenly Court is actually just a nominal ruler of the Three Realms.

But now the demon race has actually joined the Heavenly Court. The myriad races of the prehistoric world do not believe that the demon race could not see this information, yet they still joined the Heavenly Court. This is quite intriguing.

The Heavenly Court, the residence of the Purple Star Emperor.

"Bai Ze, arrange for the Zhou Tian Star Lord to return to his place," the Great Golden Crow said to Bai Ze.

"Yes, Your Highness!" Bai Ze nodded.

"At the same time, the Four Saints of the North Pole, the Nine Luminaries, the Seven Stars of the Big Dipper, the Six Stars of the Southern Dipper, the Twelve Yuan Chen, the Sixty Jiazi Tai Sui Stars, the Twenty-Eight Mansions of the Clouds and Sky, the Thirty-Six Heavenly Generals of the Dipper, and the Seventy-Two Earthly Fiends will be separated out separately," the Great Golden Crow said with a smile.

"Your Highness, why is this?" Bai Ze asked, somewhat puzzled.

"Bai Ze, as the strategist of my demon race, can't you see clearly?" The Great Golden Crow looked at Bai Ze, a hint of a smile in its eyes.

"Your Highness, are you trying to give the Jade Emperor hope?" Bai Ze asked.

"Go do it."

"Yes!" Bai Ze nodded.

"I wonder if my actions will cause the Investiture of the Gods to be aborted? After all, I have replenished quite a few of the Heavenly Court's divine positions this time!" The Great Golden Crow looked around the Ziwei Emperor's mansion and said with a smile.

"It doesn't matter. We'll deal with whatever comes our way. We can worry about the future later. Right now, the most important thing is to develop the demon race. Without the power of the moonlight, the demon race's development is still too slow," the Great Golden Crow said with a smile.

Pan Huang smiled upon hearing the news. Although the Golden Crow was his clone, he would not interfere with what the clone did, because the clone also had its own thoughts, and what the clone did would not affect him at all, but could even help him.

"In that case, could I also plot about the positions of the gods in the Heavenly Court? The Great Emperor of the North Pole Ziwei has been taken, and there are still the Great Emperor of the East Pole Qinghua, the Great Emperor of the South Pole Changsheng, and the Great Emperor Gouchen. If our Human Sect takes the position of the Great Emperor Gouchen, wouldn't that be quite interesting?" Pan Huang said, rubbing his chin.

However, Pan Huang has not yet come up with a suitable candidate. His disciples all have divine positions in the underworld. Although their main bodies are not there, their quasi-saint avatars are always in the underworld.

Would it be inappropriate to give them divine positions in Heaven?

"If the Red-Bottomed Macaque were here, this Gouchen Emperor would be quite suitable for him," Pan Huang suddenly said.

However, the red-bottomed macaque disappeared after Yu the Great controlled the floods. Ruyi tried to calculate it several times during this period, but when they rushed there, the red-bottomed macaque had long since disappeared, so they eventually gave up.

Just as Pan Huang was pondering whether to ask the Heavenly Court for a divine position, a major event occurred on the human side.

The current ruler of the Xia Dynasty is Jie. After Jie ascended the throne, he was a wise and benevolent ruler in the early years. However, as time went on, many problems were exposed.

First, King Jie of Xia began to neglect state affairs and made many absurd policies in the court, which caused great suffering to the people of Xia.

Finally, he even became licentious and indulged in favoritism towards Mei Xi, which paralyzed the entire country's politics. It wasn't that no one among the human race wanted to rebel, but Xia Jie was the human king, and Pan Huang did not prohibit human kings from cultivating, so they were not only powerful, but could also mobilize the golden dragon of destiny. In the end, all those who rebelled against Xia Jie were killed by him.

Xia Qi and the other human kings were furious when they saw this, but they were no longer human kings. Although the human race's fortune would not harm them, they could not harm Xia Jie either. All they could do was suppress Xia Jie's strength.

"What should we do now? If we let Xia Jie continue like this, he will squander the fate of the human race sooner or later!" Shao Kang asked Xia Qi.

"Report to the ancestral temple! Support a new emperor!" Xia Qi took a deep breath and said slowly.

"Can……"

"There's no 'but' about it. This world doesn't belong to us; it belongs to the human race. If our descendants are capable, we can let them continue to be the human kings. But if our descendants are not capable, then let the human kings be given to those who are!" Xia Qi said, looking towards the East China Sea coast.

They then reported Xia Jie's affairs to the ancestral temple of the human race.

Upon hearing this news, Yu the Great trembled with rage. He never imagined that his descendants would produce such an incompetent ruler.

"Yu, I'll leave this matter to you!" Suirenshi said to Yu.

"Yes!" Da Yu nodded.

Later, Yu the Great arrived at the Xia Dynasty, wanting to see what the dynasty he had established had become.

If only the king is incompetent, then we only need to replace him. If the entire court is incompetent, then we should change the dynasty!

Standing in the Xia Dynasty court, looking at Xia Jie and his court officials, Yu the Great closed his eyes in anguish.

"Xia Yu of the human race respectfully requests the Kongtong Seal!" Xia Yu said respectfully while kneeling in the air.

The next second, a golden light appeared, and the Kongtong Seal appeared beside Yu the Great.

"Now the Xia Dynasty of the human race has a foolish king and incompetent courtiers. I, Yu the Great, respectfully request the most precious treasure of the human race to protect the destiny of my human race!" Yu the Great said.

After Xia Yu finished speaking, the Kongtong Seal spun around twice, and then a golden light shot out from it and landed in a certain place.

The next second, Xia Yu felt the fortune of the Xia Dynasty slowly flowing towards the place where the golden light of the Kongtong Seal fell.

"Alas! The development of the human race has its own laws. From now on, if the human king is incompetent, I hope that the human race's treasure will protect our human race's fortune!" Yu the Great stood up and bowed to the Kongtong Seal.

The Kongtong Seal ignored Yu the Great and disappeared from the spot.

In fact, even without Yu the Great saying it, Kongtong Seal, or Panhuang, would have done the same.

After doing all this, Yu returned to the shores of the East Sea, reported to the three ancestors of the human race, and then went back to Qingqiu.

After attaining enlightenment, Yu the Great stayed on the shore of the East Sea for only a hundred years before settling down in Qingqiu with Nüjiao.

In Liangzhou, one of the nine ancient provinces, on the banks of the Yellow River, a man named Zilu was fishing.

Because of Xia Jie's rule, the entire human race is now living in poverty. At this moment, a thought suddenly came to Zi Lü's mind: since Xia Jie was incompetent, why did no one replace him?

Didn't Xia Qi obtain the throne of the human king in the same way back then?

After thinking about this, a flame called ambition appeared in Zilu's heart.

A few years later, Zi Lü raised a large rebel army, and soon the area along the Yellow River came under his control. At this time, the Xia Dynasty was completely unaware of this, and the current Xia Dynasty officials were busy scheming against each other!

While the human race was busy with the change of dynasties, the Heavenly Court also underwent changes.

Because of the Peach Banquet, the Chan Sect lost face in front of all the races of the prehistoric world, and Yuanshi Tianzun was seriously injured as a result. He blamed all of this on the Human Sect and the Heavenly Court.

Yuanshi Tianzun has not yet found a way to scheme against the Human Sect, but the Heavenly Court has.

The Jade Emperor has a younger sister named Yao Ji. When the Jade Emperor was enlightened by Hongjun Daozu, Yao Ji was a piece of stone that fell off the Jade Emperor's original body.

After being carefully nurtured by the Jade Emperor for so many years, Yao Ji finally took human form. After her transformation, Yao Ji was named the Eldest Princess and put in charge of the Heavenly Court's Desire Realm!

Because Yao Ji only came into contact with the Jade Emperor and the Queen Mother after she transformed into human form, she was pure of heart and had no ulterior motives. Such a mindset was very suitable for governing the Desire Realm.

On this day, a Taoist priest sneaked into the Heavenly Court. After entering the Lingxiao Palace, he casually pointed, waking up a three-headed dragon that was wrapped around a pillar of the Lingxiao Palace. He then took out a dragon pearl from his pocket and injected a wisp of the dragon pearl into the three-headed dragon's body.

Having done all this, the Taoist concealed himself and left the Lingxiao Palace.

When he reappeared, he had already arrived in the Desire Realm.

Upon arriving in the Desire Realm, the Taoist priest used a treasure to conceal his aura. He quietly approached Yao Ji, placed the Dragon Pearl on her body, and then left the Desire Realm.

Not long after the Taoist left, the three-headed dragon arrived in the Desire Realm, having followed the aura of the dragon pearl.

Upon seeing Yao Ji, the three-headed dragon rushed forward without hesitation, because it sensed that the dragon pearl was in Yao Ji's hands.

The Three-Headed Flood Dragon was at the peak of the Taiyi Golden Immortal realm, while Yao Ji was only at the early stage of the Taiyi Golden Immortal realm. She was no match for the Three-Headed Flood Dragon at all.

After a dozen or so rounds, Yao Ji was at a disadvantage. Seeing this, the three-headed dragon attacked even more fiercely. Yao Ji was caught off guard and was struck in the chest by the three-headed dragon's palm, sending her flying backward.

Just as Yao Ji was flying backward, the three-headed dragon seized the opportunity to grab the dragon pearl and flew away without looking back.

"Dragon Ball? When did I get Dragon Ball?" Yao Ji asked in confusion after seeing the Dragon Ball in the Three-Headed Dragon's hand.

But the next second, she chased after it. She instinctively thought that it must have been given to her by her brother, the Jade Emperor. Since it was given to her by her brother, she had to take it back.

Although Yao Ji was only at the early stage of Taiyi Golden Immortal, she had the Heavenly Eye. With the Heavenly Eye, the gap between her and the Three-Headed Flood Dragon was not that big.

After the three-headed dragon flew out of the Desire Realm, it planned to find a place to refine the dragon pearl. It had been decorating the Lingxiao Palace for too many years and was tired of this kind of life. It wanted to change its way of life and wanted to roam the world freely.

Just as he was thinking this, Yao Ji suddenly caught up with him.

"Hand over the Dragon Ball!" Yao Ji shouted as she chased after him.

Seeing this, the three-headed dragon snorted coldly. Hand it over? That's absolutely impossible. This concerns whether he can live freely in the world; how could he possibly hand it over?

However, the Heavenly Court is full of people and eyes, and if the pursuit continues, we will definitely be discovered, and then it will not be as simple as just handing over the Dragon Ball.

Leaving the Lingxiao Palace without permission is punishable by beheading!

With that in mind, the three-headed dragon decided to go all the way and descend to the mortal realm.

Upon seeing this, Yao Ji descended to the mortal realm without a second thought and followed the three-headed dragon.

Just as Yao Ji and the three-headed dragon left the Heavenly Court, the Taoist priest from before emerged from the corner. It turned out to be Huanglong Zhenren of the Chan Sect. He looked at the departing figures of Yao Ji and the three-headed dragon and a smug smile appeared on his face.

When Yao Ji appeared on the primordial land, she finally realized what was happening, which made her start to panic. Her brother, the Jade Emperor, had told her that the primordial land was very dangerous, so he forbade her to leave the Heavenly Court. But now she had actually descended to the mortal realm. How could she not panic?

However, Yao Ji quickly calmed down. She was chasing the three-headed dragon, and as long as she brought the dragon pearl back, her brother the Jade Emperor shouldn't say anything.

With this in mind, Yao Ji began searching for the whereabouts of the three-headed dragon in the human world.

Having fought the Three-Headed Flood Dragon before, she possessed its aura and found it without much effort.

"Hand over the Dragon Pearl?" Yao Ji said coldly after seeing the three-headed dragon.

"How annoying!" The three-headed dragon shook its head helplessly.

……

"Hey! There seems to be someone over there." On his way home, Yang Tianyou suddenly saw a woman who had collapsed by the roadside.

Upon seeing the woman, Yang Tianyou quickly ran a few steps to her side. He checked her breath and found she was still breathing faintly.

He quickly picked up the woman and placed her on his little donkey, heading home. Once home, he could find a doctor to treat the girl.

After walking for a short while, a dilapidated temple appeared before them. At this moment, Yao Ji, who was on the back of the donkey, slightly opened her eyes. The next second, a deep pain that penetrated her soul appeared in her chest.

"Are you alright?" Yang Tianyou asked quickly upon seeing the situation.

Yao Ji was unable to answer Yang Tianyou's question at this moment, and it took a while for the pain to subside slightly.

"Who are you?" After the pain subsided a little, Yao Ji weakly asked Yang Tianyou.

"Miss, my name is Yang Tianyou. There's a temple ahead. Let's rest there for a while, and then we can set off again when you feel a little better," Yang Tianyou quickly said when Yao Ji asked.

Before Yao Ji could speak, he appeared in the dilapidated temple leading a little donkey.
