Primordial Era: Mistakenly Taking Emperor Xin as Father, Nuwa is Destroyed at the Start

Looking at the panicked scene below.

On the high platform, those monsters felt uneasy.

He was just smugly waiting for his reward.

Now, disappointment and heartache are flashing in his eyes.

Yuan Hong, the leader of the Seven Monsters of Meishan, had long known that mortals feared monsters.

Seeing this scene with my own eyes, I couldn't help but feel a sense of loss and regret.

He sighed inwardly.

This is probably the fate of us creatures covered in scales and armor, born from wet eggs.

It can never see the light of day.

They were always treated as outsiders.

……

The people were in a panic.

The Heavenly Court was overjoyed.

In the Lingxiao Palace, the Jade Emperor's face, which had been gloomy just moments before, was now beaming with joy.

He pointed at the chaotic and terrified human people in the lower realm of Chaoge City and laughed heartily at Taibai Jinxing beside him.

"Haha! Did you see that? What did I say again!"

The Jade Emperor laughed so hard his beard trembled.

"Emperor Xin was just daydreaming! A pipe dream!"

"With these ignorant and cowardly mortals, does Di Xin really think he can challenge the Heavenly Court? He's utterly overestimating himself!"

Venus, who was watching from the side, saw everything clearly and immediately smiled and bowed obsequiously.

"Your Majesty is wise! Your Majesty is truly wise!"

He continued speaking, following the Jade Emperor's words.

"That brat Di Xin overestimated himself and dared to defy Heaven. Now, under the divine might of Immortal Master Yun Zhongzi, his true colors have been revealed, and all this farce has been turned upside down! This is clearly the will of Heaven, which cannot be disobeyed!"

"Your Majesty, look at this Investiture of the Gods ceremony! It's become a complete joke!"

The Jade Emperor was even more pleased with himself, stroking his beard and nodding repeatedly.

"Yes, yes! That makes perfect sense!"

He looked down at the chaos, as if he could already see Di Xin's utter defeat.

now.

The Heavenly Court wasn't the only one paying attention to this farce in Chaoge City.

The distant Western Paradise.

The two saints, Jieyin and Zhunti, were playing chess together.

They also witnessed everything that happened at the Fengshen Square in Chaoge City.

They watched as Yun Zhongzi revealed his magic mirror, as the demons appeared, and as the people were thrown into chaos.

The two sages exchanged a glance.

Neither of them spoke.

However, the corners of their mouths curved slightly upwards, revealing a knowing smile.

……

Inside the Fire Cloud Cave.

Fuxi looked at the scene of Chaoge City displayed on the crystal mirror.

His tense expression finally relaxed.

He let out a long, silent sigh, and the suffocating feeling in his chest dissipated considerably.

He turned his head and looked at Shennong and Xuanyuan beside him.

The two emperors wore clearly complex expressions.

Fuxi cleared his throat, trying to make his tone sound earnest and sincere.

"My two virtuous brothers, do you see?" Fuxi pointed to the chaotic scene in the mirror, "This is the consequence of going against the will of Heaven."

"My previous efforts to prevent you from interfering in the affairs of the Shang Dynasty were not solely due to considerations of the Goddess Nuwa's position."

"I truly do not want to see you dragged into this doomed quagmire."

He walked around the cave with his hands behind his back.

"Humanity lies dormant beneath the laws of Heaven; this is its ordained destiny! No one can change it."

"Think back to those days, how powerful and domineering were the Witch Clan and the Demon Clan? What happened to them in the end? They were all reduced to ashes before the overwhelming force of Heaven!"

"What makes Di Xin so powerful? These rabble of monsters? A Shang dynasty that has just begun its self-proclaimed godhood and whose foundation is not yet secure?"

"That's utterly delusional! Like a mantis trying to stop a chariot!"

He turned around to face Shennong and Xuanyuan, his tone becoming serious and profound.

"My worthy brothers, we are the Holy Emperors of the Human Race, the Three Saints of Fire Cloud Cave."

"We bear the responsibility for the rise and fall of the entire human race, and for the well-being of future generations."

"How can our vision be limited to the Shang Dynasty alone? Or to Emperor Xin, a ruler destined to fail?"

He pointed to the chaotic, terrified human people reflected in the mirror.

"Look at these people! What they need is stability, to follow the will of Heaven, not to be manipulated by ambitious individuals to defy the inviolable destiny!"

"Emperor Xin and the Shang Dynasty behind him have completely gone astray."

"Their failure was destined from the moment they attempted to 'deify themselves' and challenge the Heavenly Court."

He let out a long sigh, with a sense of "if only I had known."

"Today's farce is nothing more than a small warning from Heaven."

"My brothers," Fuxi said earnestly, "our stance in the Fire Cloud Cave must be firm."

"To obey the will of Heaven and protect the entire human race—this is our true duty. We must not, out of momentary impulse or so-called 'human relationships,' sever any connection with the doomed Shang Dynasty."

After Fuxi finished speaking, he looked intently at Shennong and Xuanyuan.

After listening to Fuxi's long speech, Shennong and Xuanyuan did not lose the complex expressions on their faces.

They remained silent.

Shennong's lips moved as if he wanted to say something, but in the end he just shook his head slightly.

Xuanyuan frowned, his gaze once again falling on the crystal mirror reflecting the chaos of Chaoge.

He looked at the terrified people in the mirror, at Di Xin on the stage who was trying to maintain the situation but looked extremely pale, and at the demons who had nowhere to hide under the clear light, looking lost and heartbroken.

In the end, Xuanyuan could only let out a barely audible long sigh.

……

They sighed with regret.

Di Xin, however, remained calm.

He suddenly roared, his voice like thunder, instantly drowning out the chaos in the square.

"Silence! All of you, stop right there!"

Di Xin's prestige in Chaoge City was beyond doubt. His rebuke caused the people who had been scattering and fleeing to stop in their tracks.

The crowd quieted down, and everyone turned to focus their attention on Di Xin.

I want to see what he has to say about this.

Seeing him like this, Yun Zhongzi's expression became even more mocking.

He proclaimed loudly, "Emperor Xin! Now that the time has come, will you still remain stubbornly unrepentant?"

He pointed to the various demonic creatures on the stage, their forms radiating an eerie aura under the clear light.

"The evidence is irrefutable! What else could these be but monsters?! What else do you have to say?!"

On the high platform, facing Yun Zhongzi's questioning and the gaze of the masses below, Di Xin not only did not panic, but instead a calm smile appeared on his lips.

His gaze swept over the bewildered crowd below, and he spoke in a clear voice that echoed throughout the square:

"Ironclad evidence? A demon? Immortal, you are mistaken!"

Di Xin's voice carried an unquestionable certainty.

"In my view, those on the stage are not monsters, but rather auspicious omens that our Great Shang Dynasty has long sought!"

Di Xin spoke with absolute certainty, as if stating a simple fact.

Upon hearing this, Yun Zhongzi on the other side was taken aback at first, then burst into laughter as if he had heard the biggest joke in the world.

The laughter was filled with mockery and pity.

"Hahaha! Auspicious omens? Your Majesty, you have indeed been completely bewitched by evil spirits, turning black into white and unable to distinguish right from wrong!"

Yun Zhongzi's laughter stopped abruptly, his face changed to a compassionate expression, and his tone became heavy.

"Humanity has suffered this divine punishment, yet you, as its sovereign, remain stubbornly unrepentant! If this continues, humanity's future will only worsen until it is utterly destroyed!"

"If you still wish to save humanity, if you still harbor even a shred of remorse, there is currently only one glimmer of hope!"

As Yun Zhongzi spoke, he solemnly took the enormous peach wood sword, Juque, from behind his back.

He raised the wooden sword high, facing Di Xin and all the people, and commanded in a loud voice:

"You shall immediately hang this sword upon this so-called Investiture of the Gods platform!"

"With this sword's sharp energy, suppress the evil spirits!"

"We must hold out for a full forty-nine days!"

"At the same time, immediately cancel this absurd and ridiculous conferment ceremony!"

"Immediately hold a sacrificial ceremony to Heaven, to apologize and pray for blessings!"

Yun Zhongzi stared intently at Di Xin.

"Only in this way can we gain the favor of Heaven and secure a glimmer of hope for our human race!"

……

As soon as Yun Zhongzi finished speaking, the people who had been hiding in the crowd and had been arranged by him immediately started shouting and making a fuss.

"Yes, yes, yes! The immortal is right! Quickly, hang up the sword!"

"Your Majesty! Listen to the immortal! For the sake of the Great Shang!"

"Quickly offer sacrifices to heaven and admit your mistake! Otherwise, disaster will befall you!"

The sounds came one after another, as if they had planned it together.

Now, almost every gaze, both in the heavens and on the earth, was fixed on Di Xin like nails.

Di Xin stood on the high platform, his face showing no sign of panic, as steady as a rock.

He met the doubtful, fearful, and expectant gazes, and repeated himself again in a loud voice, enunciating each word clearly:

"I already said that!"

"Standing here now are not demons, but auspicious omens that our Great Shang Dynasty has long sought!"

After saying that, he suddenly turned his head and looked sharply at Du Yuanxian, who was still in a daze beside him.

"Minister Du!" Di Xin's voice carried an undeniable command, "Isolate the monument of merit! Now!"

Du Yuanxian was jolted awake by Di Xin's shout, and only then did he recover from his stunned state.

"Yes! Yes! Your Majesty, I will obey! I will do it immediately!"

He turned to Yuan Hong in a panic, his voice trembling slightly: "Immortal Yuan... I beg you... please use your great power to help me erect this monument!"

Although Yuan Hong was also angry and felt uncomfortable being looked at by that broken mirror, he knew that the overall situation was more important.

With a stern face, he replied in a muffled voice, "Okay!"

Yuan Hong took a deep breath, his magical power surging around him, and then waved his hand sharply at the several huge stone slabs that had been prepared in the center of the square!

Boom! Boom! Boom!

Several heavy stone tablets rose up in response, standing firmly and proudly in the most conspicuous position in the square, like several small hills.

The stone tablet has a smooth surface and is covered with densely packed patterns and characters.

The people craned their necks, curiously gazing at the pictures on the stone tablets.

Many of the patterns looked familiar to them, as if they resembled the features of the "immortals" on stage who were described as monsters.

But what does it mean to have this engraved on the monument?

Everyone was confused. They looked at each other and started whispering among themselves.

Du Yuanxian composed himself, straightened his back, and walked to the first stone tablet.

He cleared his throat, pointed to the patterns on the monument, and began to speak loudly:

"Fellow villagers! Please be quiet! Listen to what I have to say!"

"Please look at this first picture! It depicts a flash flood and a giant ape moving mountains!"

Du Yuanxi’s voice was filled with excitement as he pointed to the blurry figure of Yuan Hong moving rocks on the stone tablet.

"I'm talking about Immortal Master Yuan Hong! Not long ago, Meishan was hit by torrential rain, and flash floods threatened to wash away more than a dozen villages downstream! It was Immortal Master Yuan! He manifested his divine form, moved mountains with his strength, and forcefully blocked the breach in the floodwaters! He saved thousands of lives! Every old person at the foot of Meishan knows about this! Isn't that right?!"

Immediately, people from Meishan in the audience shouted excitedly:

"It's true! My grandfather saw it with his own eyes! A magical monkey moved the mountain that was blocking its way!"

"Yes, yes! Our village's centenarian also said that without Master Yuan, our village would have been gone long ago!"

Du Yuanxian nodded, then walked to a nearby stone tablet and pointed to an image of a giant bird flapping its wings:

"Look at this one! It depicts a roc spreading its wings, blocking out the scorching sun!"

"This is the Winged Immortal! Last month, Yanzhou suffered a severe drought, the land was parched for miles, and the sun was scorching like an oven! It was the Winged Immortal who spread his wings, blotting out the sun, and managed to create shade for the crops and people who were dying from the heat! He held them up for three days and three nights! And then the rain came! People of Yanzhou, tell me, is this true?!"

The people from Yanzhou immediately responded at the top of their lungs:

"Yes! Absolutely! The sky suddenly darkened that day, and when I looked up, there was a huge divine bird!"

"Yes, yes! If it weren't for that divine bird blocking the sun, all my seedlings would have died from the heat! It's their lifesaver!"

Du Yuanxian became more and more confident as he spoke. He walked to the third stone tablet and pointed to a figure on it that looked somewhat fierce but was driving away other lesser demons:

"And this one! It depicts a fierce god driving away evil spirits and protecting the area!"

"This is Immortal Master Ma Yuan! Though his appearance is different from ordinary people, his heart is devoted to the righteous path! The White Bone Cave outside Chen Tang Pass was haunted by an evil demon that preyed on passing merchants and children! It was Immortal Master Ma! He single-handedly stormed into the White Bone Cave, slew the wicked White Bone Demon, and subdued the surrounding troublesome lesser demons, ensuring three years of peace for Chen Tang Pass! Fellow villagers of Chen Tang Pass, do you still remember him?!"

The people of Chentang Pass immediately echoed in unison:

"I remember! I remember it so well! Master Ma may look fierce, but he's a really good person!"

"Yes, yes! We used to be too scared to go out at night, but now it's okay! The kids can play in the streets now!"

Du Yuanxian pointed to the stone tablet and, one by one, recounted in the most straightforward language all the good deeds and contributions that Yuan Hong, Yu Yixian, Ma Yuan, and the Meishan bandits who had revealed their true forms had done for the local people.

"Folks! Did you see that clearly?"

Du Yuanxian shouted at the end, his voice hoarse.

"These immortals may look different from us! But everything they do is for our human race! For the people of our Great Shang Dynasty to live better lives!"

They vanquished demons and monsters, they relieved suffering and rescued those in distress! They protected the peace of the region! What is engraved on this monument of merit is their undeniable achievement! It is an irrefutable fact! Isn't this far more weighty than empty slander?!

Du Yuanxian's words were like stones thrown into the already panicked crowd, creating ripples.

It is true that the people of Dashang were timid and easily frightened by the frightening sights before them.

But they are also the most reasonable and grateful group of people.

When I saw those strange shapes reflected in the mirror just now, I was really scared.

But now, listening to Lord Du recount the good deeds these "monsters" had done, looking at the pictures carved on the stone tablet, and thinking about the life-saving graces and protections that he or his fellow villagers had personally experienced...

People's thoughts began to change.

The panic subsided slowly, like the tide receding.

The doubts were gradually replaced by understanding and gratitude.

It turns out that these "immortal masters" on the stage, although they look a bit scary, are actually our great benefactors!

"So...so that's how it is..."

"Master Yuan has saved so many lives..."

"The Winged Immortal shielded us from the sun..."

"Master Ma may look fierce, but he fights harmful monsters..."

"Lord Du is right! You have to judge a person by what they do, not just their appearance!"

Quiet whispers arose in the crowd, no longer screams of terror, but rather sounds of sudden realization and shame.

It's unclear who started it, but scattered applause began. Then, as if ignited, the applause grew louder and more frequent, eventually merging into a torrent of enthusiastic applause that resounded throughout the entire Fengshen Square!

"good!!"

"Well done, immortals!!"

"Thank you, immortals!!"

"Your Majesty is wise!!"

The people clapped their hands vigorously, smiles returned to their faces, and their gazes toward the platform were filled with sincere gratitude and respect.

Du Yuanxi’s voice was filled with excitement as he pointed to the blurry figure of Yuan Hong moving rocks on the stone tablet.

"I'm talking about Immortal Master Yuan Hong! Not long ago, Meishan was hit by torrential rain, and flash floods threatened to wash away more than a dozen villages downstream!

He held them up for three days and three nights! And then the rain came! People of Yanzhou, tell me, is this true?!"

The people from Yanzhou immediately responded at the top of their lungs:

"Yes! Absolutely! The sky suddenly darkened that day, and when I looked up, there was a huge divine bird!"

"Yes, yes! If it weren't for that divine bird blocking the sun, all my seedlings would have died from the heat! It's their lifesaver!"

Du Yuanxian became more and more confident as he spoke. He walked to the third stone tablet and pointed to a figure on it that looked somewhat fierce but was driving away other lesser demons:

"And this one! It depicts a fierce god driving away evil spirits and protecting the area!"

"This is Immortal Master Ma Yuan! Though his appearance is different from ordinary people, his heart is devoted to the righteous path! The White Bone Cave outside Chen Tang Pass was haunted by an evil demon that preyed on passing merchants and children! It was Immortal Master Ma! He single-handedly stormed into the White Bone Cave, slew the wicked White Bone Demon, and subdued the surrounding troublesome lesser demons, ensuring three years of peace for Chen Tang Pass! Fellow villagers of Chen Tang Pass, do you still remember him?!"

The people of Chentang Pass immediately echoed in unison:

"I remember! I remember it so well! Master Ma may look fierce, but he's a really good person!"

"Yes, yes! We used to be too scared to go out at night, but now it's okay! The kids can play in the streets now!"

Du Yuanxian pointed to the stone tablet and, one by one, recounted in the most straightforward language all the good deeds and contributions that Yuan Hong, Yu Yixian, Ma Yuan, and the Meishan bandits who had revealed their true forms had done for the local people.

"Folks! Did you see that clearly?"

Du Yuanxian shouted at the end, his voice hoarse.

"These immortals may look different from us! But everything they do is for our human race! For the people of our Great Shang Dynasty to live better lives!"

They vanquished demons and monsters, they relieved suffering and rescued those in distress! They protected the peace of the region! What is engraved on this monument of merit is their undeniable achievement! It is an irrefutable fact! Isn't this far more weighty than empty slander?!

Du Yuanxian's words were like stones thrown into the already panicked crowd, creating ripples.

It is true that the people of Dashang were timid and easily frightened by the frightening sights before them.

But they are also the most reasonable and grateful group of people.

When I saw those strange shapes reflected in the mirror just now, I was really scared.

But now, listening to Lord Du recount the good deeds these "monsters" had done, looking at the pictures carved on the stone tablet, and thinking about the life-saving graces and protections that he or his fellow villagers had personally experienced...

People's thoughts began to change.

The panic subsided slowly, like the tide receding.

The doubts were gradually replaced by understanding and gratitude.

It turns out that these "immortal masters" on the stage, although they look a bit scary, are actually our great benefactors!

"So...so that's how it is..."

"Master Yuan has saved so many lives..."

"The Winged Immortal shielded us from the sun..."

"Master Ma may look fierce, but he fights harmful monsters..."

"Lord Du is right! You have to judge a person by what they do, not just their appearance!"

Quiet whispers arose in the crowd, no longer screams of terror, but rather sounds of sudden realization and shame.

It's unclear who started it, but scattered applause began. Then, as if ignited, the applause grew louder and more frequent, eventually merging into a torrent of enthusiastic applause that resounded throughout the entire Fengshen Square!

"good!!"

"Well done, immortals!!"

"Thank you, immortals!!"

"Your Majesty is wise!!"

The people clapped their hands vigorously, smiles returned to their faces, and their gazes toward the platform were filled with sincere gratitude and respect.

"Please look at this first picture! It depicts a flash flood and a giant ape moving mountains!"

Du Yuanxi’s voice was filled with excitement as he pointed to the blurry figure of Yuan Hong moving rocks on the stone tablet.

"I'm talking about Immortal Master Yuan Hong! Not long ago, Meishan was hit by torrential rain, and flash floods threatened to wash away more than a dozen villages downstream! It was Immortal Master Yuan! He manifested his divine form, moved mountains with his strength, and forcefully blocked the breach in the floodwaters! He saved thousands of lives! Every old person at the foot of Meishan knows about this! Isn't that right?!"

Immediately, people from Meishan in the audience shouted excitedly:

"It's true! My grandfather saw it with his own eyes! A magical monkey moved the mountain that was blocking its way!"

"Yes, yes! Our village's centenarian also said that without Master Yuan, our village would have been gone long ago!"

Du Yuanxian nodded, then walked to a nearby stone tablet and pointed to an image of a giant bird flapping its wings:

"Look at this one! It depicts a roc spreading its wings, blocking out the scorching sun!"

"This is the Winged Immortal! Last month, Yanzhou suffered a severe drought, the land was parched for miles, and the sun was scorching like an oven!

Du Yuanxian shouted at the end, his voice hoarse.

"These immortals may look different from us! But everything they do is for our human race! For the people of our Great Shang Dynasty to live better lives!"

They vanquished demons and monsters, they relieved suffering and rescued those in distress! They protected the peace of the region! What is engraved on this monument of merit is their undeniable achievement! It is an irrefutable fact! Isn't this far more weighty than empty slander?!

Du Yuanxian's words were like stones thrown into the already panicked crowd, creating ripples.

It is true that the people of Dashang were timid and easily frightened by the frightening sights before them.

But they are also the most reasonable and grateful group of people.

When I saw those strange shapes reflected in the mirror just now, I was really scared.

But now, listening to Lord Du recount the good deeds these "monsters" had done, looking at the pictures carved on the stone tablet, and thinking about the life-saving graces and protections that he or his fellow villagers had personally experienced...

People's thoughts began to change.

The panic subsided slowly, like the tide receding.

The doubts were gradually replaced by understanding and gratitude.

It turns out that these "immortal masters" on the stage, although they look a bit scary, are actually our great benefactors!

"So...so that's how it is..."

"Master Yuan has saved so many lives..."

"The Winged Immortal shielded us from the sun..."

"Master Ma may look fierce, but he fights harmful monsters..."

"Lord Du is right! You have to judge a person by what they do, not just their appearance!"

Quiet whispers arose in the crowd, no longer screams of terror, but rather sounds of sudden realization and shame.

It's unclear who started it, but scattered applause began. Then, as if ignited, the applause grew louder and more frequent, eventually merging into a torrent of enthusiastic applause that resounded throughout the entire Fengshen Square!

"good!!"

"Well done, immortals!!"

"Thank you, immortals!!"

"Your Majesty is wise!!"

The people clapped their hands vigorously, smiles returned to their faces, and their gazes toward the platform were filled with sincere gratitude and respect.

Du Yuanxi’s voice was filled with excitement as he pointed to the blurry figure of Yuan Hong moving rocks on the stone tablet.

"I'm talking about Immortal Master Yuan Hong! Not long ago, Meishan was hit by torrential rain, and flash floods threatened to wash away more than a dozen villages downstream! It was Immortal Master Yuan! He manifested his divine form, moved mountains with his strength, and forcefully blocked the breach in the floodwaters! He saved thousands of lives! Every old person at the foot of Meishan knows about this! Isn't that right?!"

Immediately, people from Meishan in the audience shouted excitedly:

"It's true! My grandfather saw it with his own eyes! A magical monkey moved the mountain that was blocking its way!"

"Yes, yes! Our village's centenarian also said that without Master Yuan, our village would have been gone long ago!"

Du Yuanxian nodded, then walked to a nearby stone tablet and pointed to an image of a giant bird flapping its wings:

"Look at this one! It depicts a roc spreading its wings, blocking out the scorching sun!"

"This is the Winged Immortal! Last month, Yanzhou suffered a severe drought, the land was parched for miles, and the sun was scorching like an oven! It was the Winged Immortal who spread his wings, blotting out the sun, and managed to create shade for the crops and people who were dying from the heat! He held them up for three days and three nights! And then the rain came! People of Yanzhou, tell me, is this true?!"

The people from Yanzhou immediately responded at the top of their lungs:

"Yes! Absolutely! The sky suddenly darkened that day, and when I looked up, there was a huge divine bird!"

"Yes, yes! If it weren't for that divine bird blocking the sun, all my seedlings would have died from the heat! It's their lifesaver!"

Du Yuanxian became more and more confident as he spoke. He walked to the third stone tablet and pointed to a figure on it that looked somewhat fierce but was driving away other lesser demons:

"And this one! It depicts a fierce god driving away evil spirits and protecting the area!"

"This is Immortal Master Ma Yuan! Though his appearance is different from ordinary people, his heart is devoted to the righteous path! The White Bone Cave outside Chen Tang Pass was haunted by an evil demon that preyed on passing merchants and children! It was Immortal Master Ma! He single-handedly stormed into the White Bone Cave, slew the wicked White Bone Demon, and subdued the surrounding troublesome lesser demons, ensuring three years of peace for Chen Tang Pass! Fellow villagers of Chen Tang Pass, do you still remember him?!"

The people of Chentang Pass immediately echoed in unison:

"I remember! I remember it so well! Master Ma may look fierce, but he's a really good person!"

"Yes, yes! We used to be too scared to go out at night, but now it's okay! The kids can play in the streets now!"

Du Yuanxian pointed to the stone tablet and, one by one, recounted in the most straightforward language all the good deeds and contributions that Yuan Hong, Yu Yixian, Ma Yuan, and the Meishan bandits who had revealed their true forms had done for the local people.

The people clapped their hands vigorously, smiles returned to their faces, and their gazes toward the platform were filled with sincere gratitude and respect.

He cleared his throat, pointed to the patterns on the monument, and began to speak loudly:

"Fellow villagers! Please be quiet! Listen to what I have to say!"

"Please look at this first picture! It depicts a flash flood and a giant ape moving mountains!"

Du Yuanxi’s voice was filled with excitement as he pointed to the blurry figure of Yuan Hong moving rocks on the stone tablet.

"I'm talking about Immortal Master Yuan Hong! Not long ago, Meishan was hit by torrential rain, and flash floods threatened to wash away more than a dozen villages downstream! It was Immortal Master Yuan! He manifested his divine form, moved mountains with his strength, and forcefully blocked the breach in the floodwaters! He saved thousands of lives! Every old person at the foot of Meishan knows about this! Isn't that right?!"

Immediately, people from Meishan in the audience shouted excitedly:

"It's true! My grandfather saw it with his own eyes! A magical monkey moved the mountain that was blocking its way!"

"Yes, yes! Our village's centenarian also said that without Master Yuan, our village would have been gone long ago!"

Du Yuanxian nodded, then walked to a nearby stone tablet and pointed to an image of a giant bird flapping its wings:

"Look at this one! It depicts a roc spreading its wings, blocking out the scorching sun!"

"This is the Winged Immortal! Last month, Yanzhou suffered a severe drought, the land was parched for miles, and the sun was scorching like an oven! It was the Winged Immortal who spread his wings, blotting out the sun, and managed to create shade for the crops and people who were dying from the heat! He held them up for three days and three nights! And then the rain came! People of Yanzhou, tell me, is this true?!"

The people from Yanzhou immediately responded at the top of their lungs:

"Yes! Absolutely! The sky suddenly darkened that day, and when I looked up, there was a huge divine bird!"

"Yes, yes! If it weren't for that divine bird blocking the sun, all my seedlings would have died from the heat! It's their lifesaver!"

Du Yuanxian became more and more confident as he spoke. He walked to the third stone tablet and pointed to a figure on it that looked somewhat fierce but was driving away other lesser demons:

"And this one! It depicts a fierce god driving away evil spirits and protecting the area!"

"This is Immortal Master Ma Yuan! Though his appearance is different from ordinary people, his heart is devoted to the righteous path! The White Bone Cave outside Chen Tang Pass was haunted by an evil demon that preyed on passing merchants and children! It was Immortal Master Ma! He single-handedly stormed into the White Bone Cave, slew the wicked White Bone Demon, and subdued the surrounding troublesome lesser demons, ensuring three years of peace for Chen Tang Pass! Fellow villagers of Chen Tang Pass, do you still remember him?!"

The people of Chentang Pass immediately echoed in unison:

"I remember! I remember it so well! Master Ma may look fierce, but he's a really good person!"

"Yes, yes! We used to be too scared to go out at night, but now it's okay! The kids can play in the streets now!"

Du Yuanxian pointed to the stone tablet and, one by one, recounted in the most straightforward language all the good deeds and contributions that Yuan Hong, Yu Yixian, Ma Yuan, and the Meishan bandits who had revealed their true forms had done for the local people.

"Folks! Did you see that clearly?"

Du Yuanxian shouted at the end, his voice hoarse.

"These immortals may look different from us! But everything they do is for our human race! For the people of our Great Shang Dynasty to live better lives!"

They vanquished demons and monsters, they relieved suffering and rescued those in distress! They protected the peace of the region! What is engraved on this monument of merit is their undeniable achievement! It is an irrefutable fact! Isn't this far more weighty than empty slander?!

Du Yuanxian's words were like stones thrown into the already panicked crowd, creating ripples.

It is true that the people of Dashang were timid and easily frightened by the frightening sights before them.

But they are also the most reasonable and grateful group of people.

When I saw those strange shapes reflected in the mirror just now, I was really scared.

But now, listening to Lord Du recount the good deeds these "monsters" had done, looking at the pictures carved on the stone tablet, and thinking about the life-saving graces and protections that he or his fellow villagers had personally experienced...

People's thoughts began to change.

The panic subsided slowly, like the tide receding.

The doubts were gradually replaced by understanding and gratitude.

It turns out that these "immortal masters" on the stage, although they look a bit scary, are actually our great benefactors!

"So...so that's how it is..."

"Master Yuan has saved so many lives..."

"The Winged Immortal shielded us from the sun..."

"Master Ma may look fierce, but he fights harmful monsters..."

"Lord Du is right! You have to judge a person by what they do, not just their appearance!"

Quiet whispers arose in the crowd, no longer screams of terror, but rather sounds of sudden realization and shame.

It's unclear who started it, but scattered applause began. Then, as if ignited, the applause grew louder and more frequent, eventually merging into a torrent of enthusiastic applause that resounded throughout the entire Fengshen Square!

"good!!"

"Well done, immortals!!"

"Thank you, immortals!!"

"Your Majesty is wise!!"

The people clapped their hands vigorously, smiles returned to their faces, and their gazes toward the platform were filled with sincere gratitude and respect.

Du Yuanxi’s voice was filled with excitement as he pointed to the blurry figure of Yuan Hong moving rocks on the stone tablet.
