I am... the Water God, Changcheng.

Lord of the Liusha River in the Shanhai Realm!

One of the Nine Virtues of Heaven!

…………

However, although I am said to be one of the Nine Virtues of Heaven, I am merely a Water God in charge of a single waterway. Even though the Liusha River is eight hundred *li* wide, in ancient times, the width and breadth of the Four Rivers far exceeded the Liusha River that I govern.

And now, it is said that the Shanhai Realm is soon to return to the human world.

Changcheng realized that his good old days of dominating his own territory seemed to be coming to an end.

That figure who once proclaimed himself a sovereign, arrogant, self-important, and incomparably domineering, surfaced in his mind.

The Water Lord of Huaiwo, the Scourge Lord of Shanhai, Wuzhiqi.

That arrogant and domineering deity.

Whose hand could cover all the water systems of the world, reaching the Yunmeng Marsh above, and directly connecting to the seas overseas, the God of War of the waterways.

He is coming back...

As the most capable fighter among all the water deities besides Gonggong.

Wuzhiqi had left an extremely strong shadow in the hearts of many water gods.

The Water God Conference at that time was probably like this—

The Water Gods: You don't know how to manage the water systems!

Wuzhiqi: I can fight!

The Water Gods: You don't know how to summon clouds and rain!

Wuzhiqi: But I can fight!

The Water Gods: You don't know how to regulate the creatures in the entire water domain so that they all support you!

The Water Lord of Huaiwo pondered, and then replied.

But I can fight better than all of them!

In that era, each of the major water domains had its own prosperity and splendor, but the Huai River water domain had no advantages other than its size. The water veins were poor, and the summoning of clouds and rain was a mess. It was simply like a huge, dilapidated, and crumbling house.

How dilapidated was it?

If you just kicked it, the monkey inside would rush out and beat you flat.

Just thinking of that powerful figure made Changcheng feel a shiver down his spine, unable to sleep at night, yet helpless. As a Water Domain God, he was no match for Wuzhiqi. But when he heard that Qiongqi, one of the Four Fiends, had been nailed to the Heavenly Pillar, he suddenly realized that his chance had come—

As Qiongqi, one of the Four Extremes of the Earth, when he was on top of the Heavenly Pillar, he was no less powerful than Wuzhiqi.

As long as I obtain the authority of the Four Extremes of the Earth... I won't be bullied by Wuzhiqi, I mean, I won't be inferior to that water monkey.

And in this West Mountain Realm, how many gods and fierce beasts can surpass me?

So, he arrived at the battlefield with absolute faith and uprightness.

He met the general of the Daughter Kingdom. When the two were fighting each other, they were ambushed and both seriously injured.

At the last moment, he looked back—

That was one of the Four Fiends.

Taowu, one of the Four Fiends, far surpassing Qiongqi.

…………

After Changcheng barely escaped the battlefield, he was already badly wounded. He swallowed countless demon beasts in the water domains along the way to barely stabilize his body. Although devouring those lower-level water gods would allow him to recover faster, it was obvious that the covenant that Changcheng, who was known as one of the Nine Virtues of Heaven, adhered to was a shackle on himself.

He would not and could not do such a thing.

But just thinking that he had fallen into such a situation because of Wuzhiqi, he became more and more angry and resentful. While resting by the Liusha River, he suddenly noticed a faint aura of the Huai River outside.

A subordinate god of Wuzhiqi?!

You dare to come here?!

Changcheng gritted his teeth, his anger rising from his heart to his gall. When the subordinate god approached, he suddenly leaped out of the water, opened his mouth wide, and swallowed the guy directly.

A moment later...

"Cough—ptui!!!"

"Cough cough cough..."

"Ptui ptui ptui!"

"Ugh..."

Changcheng, one of the Nine Virtues of Heaven, the Lord of the Liusha River, the Water God, supported himself against a nearby stone with one hand, while lowering his head to vomit. As for the water ghost, he had long been spit out in a daze. The Water God Changcheng's face was twisted. The experience just now, the reason it started, was probably that he originally wanted to obtain a part of the water god's origin to restore himself.

That was equivalent to the water god's source blood, the source of power.

As for the result, it can probably be summed up in the following sentence—

The deceased's body's cola water was mixed with a small amount of blood.

What the hell is this?!

The Water God Changcheng's face was twisted.

Wuzhiqi, Water Lord of Huaiwo!

What kind of thing did you find as a subordinate god?

Where is the dignity of being a god?!

Where is the heroism of being a god?!

Where is the arrogance of being a god?!

In those days, you stepped on the water domain, roamed in all directions, and drew out the Huai River to stop the tyranny of the Human King!

Now you're just like a *zhai* god who only knows how to stay at home and read the *Shanhai Jing* every day!

The water ghost looked at the Water God who was gnashing his teeth in a daze. After thinking about it, he said:

"Brother, may I ask, where is this?"

Changcheng wiped his mouth, glanced at him unhappily, and said:

"Can't you see? This is the Liusha River!"

Changcheng was also a god, and his words also had the effect of directly entering the depths of living beings' hearts. The water ghost's eyes lit up, and his left fist hit the palm of his right hand, and he suddenly realized:

"Oh, Liusha River, I know!"

"Then you must be Sha Wujing, the Monk Sha!"

"Why aren't you bald?"

Changcheng: "???"

The water ghost looked like he was familiar with everyone, as if he had social superpower syndrome. He patted Changcheng on the shoulder and said familiarly, "I know, I know, Liusha River, so where's your eldest brother?"

"That monkey."

"I want to ask him for an autograph and take a photo with him."

"And ask him if it's convenient to do an advertisement for my cola water."

It would have been better if he hadn't mentioned the monkey, but as soon as the monkey was mentioned, Changcheng was almost furious. Suppressing his anger, he looked at the water ghost with the aura of the Huai River on his body, slapped the latter's palm away, and gritted his teeth and said, "I am Changcheng."

"The Lord of the Liusha River."

"In charge of the Nine Virtues of Heaven."

"The common lord of the thousands of creatures in the eight-hundred-*li*-wide Liusha River."

"Tell me, who exactly are you?"

"Me?"

The water ghost pondered, and then said solemnly: "I am the best happy water mixer in the whole old street."

"The first record holder to be kicked out of the museum."

"The record holder for the seventy-two-hour happy water marathon!"

"You can call me, Brother Shui." (Water Brother)

"Now, I solemnly recommend this latest blended happy water to you."

A moment later...

The water ghost looked at Changcheng who was frowning while holding the happy water, with a little regret. Immediately, a sense of challenge arose in his heart, and he said, "It doesn't matter, I'm a happy water mixer, I can definitely mix the taste you like, but, you just said you are a River God?"

"A Water God!"

"Well, a River God." The water ghost didn't listen at all. After thinking for a while, he looked at Changcheng.

A certain suicidal impulse in his heart made him instinctively speak.

He might regret it if he said it, but he would definitely regret it if he didn't say it.

So he asked a question that made many water gods later wish they could immediately go to Buddhism, strangle him to death, and scatter his ashes.

The water ghost coughed and asked:

"Have you ever heard of the Milky Way?"

……………………

Below the Heavenly Pillar, Taowu sat cross-legged.

But the fierce aura that made all living beings fear had long disappeared from his body.

His eyes were wide open, still lifeless.

Reflecting a little girl in white.

That was the girl whom Wei Yuan had found behind the stone tablet and forcibly pulled to escape during the first nuclear explosion against Chaos. At this moment, her face was without waves, just calmly staring at Taowu's body. Several mountain gods beside her looked faintly fearful, their expressions respectful but estranged.

Earlier, before Wei Yuan's last axe fell, Taowu seemed to have seen something, and his body stiffened for a moment.

"You think I helped him?"

The little girl's voice didn't have many waves.

"Taowu was indeed distracted when he saw me."

"But locked by Xingtian's weapon, he had no way to avoid it anyway."

"Xingtian's battle axe will suppress all existence in front of the axe blade. Once locked, it has the characteristic of being guaranteed to hit."

After she left, the mountain gods breathed a sigh of relief. They looked at each other, and they all felt relieved. One of them sighed and said, "I didn't expect that this little girl is actually one of that person's incarnations. I met her before. It seems that she didn't have any memory of herself at that time."

"Is it sealed?"

"It's normal, after all, she is ▇▇▇▇, like ▇▇▇▇, there has always been such a legend."

When mentioning the name and honorific title, the mountain god's voice was stripped away and did not fall at all.

And soon, these mountain gods forgot their memories, forgot that they had seen the little girl, and also forgot her identity. They were in a daze, their eyes blank, as if they were thinking about what they were doing here before. Immediately, they noticed the heavenly treasures in the center.

After a moment of silence.

The mountain gods fought each other:

"Mine!"

"This is mine!"

The mountain god child squealed:

"But I brought that person in. I was the guide. I should get an extra share!"

…………………

Daughter Kingdom.

When Kua Lin stretched out her hand, the formation had already been activated. In the end, she could only watch Tu Shanyuan disappear. After a moment of trance, she was already in the familiar scenery of the Daughter Kingdom. The Shanhai crack that led to the West Mountain Realm had also disappeared.

She opened her mouth, feeling lost in her heart, but also a little blocked up. A warm feeling emerged, making her almost burst into tears—

Familiar name, similar words and deeds.

Fortunately, fortunately,

After being separated for several millennia, we finally met.

"Ancestor, are you alright?"

Beside her ear was the nervous and worried voice of a descendant of the Kuae clan. Kua Lin came back to her senses, smiled and waved her hand, saying that she was fine. Then, she took off the mask on her face, revealing her heroic eyebrows and eyes. If she was just a beauty with a heroic temperament before, then the exquisiteness of her facial features was now on another level. Her eyebrows and eyes were grand and heroic, which was captivating.

Kuae Liuyue, who was waiting beside her, breathed a sigh of relief, and then noticed that her aura was unstable. She said nervously:

"You are injured. I have found the best doctor for you."

"It's the Heavenly Maiden of West Kunlun."

Kua Lin turned her head and saw the girl standing there, her black hair woven with red hair ropes, and her clothes were black as the base and decorated with crimson, and the red girdle made her waist look slender. A white Kunyu tassel hung down on one side.

She was about to thank her, but found that the girl's clear and gentle eyes were staring at her hand.

Or rather, the jade talisman on her hand.

The Heavenly Maiden asked for the first time, "This is..."

Kua Lin was surprised, and then a smile appeared on her face. She replied:

"It was given to me by a very, very important old friend."

Her heroic face showed a rare gentleness, which was the most moving.

And the Heavenly Maiden looked at the female general opposite her.

She raised her eyebrows.

"Oh...?"
