The Herdsman of the Wasteland · Page 3 of 4
Before he could finish, she snatched up Taiyi's staff and rained a dozen blows on his head, shouting angrily: "How can he have a family?
How can he have a family?
Every day you mutter 'how can he have a family'! Is it wrong for me to want to hold a grandchild?
" Shen Mu clutched his head and fled like a rat. Granny Zhu chased after him with the staff, furious: "Pacifying the four quarters every day — if you have the ability, then pacify four households for me!
I could hold the children of four concubines just fine!
Don't run — stop right there! " Though she was angry, she could not help smiling; the Shen Mu of now was far more cheerful than he had been a moment ago. The Yuan Realm.
Shen Mu and Granny Zhu first went to the Tianyin Realm, where the Southern Emperor Vermilion Bird and Yan'er were. Lady Tianyin was remaking a body for the Vermilion Bird, but Lady Tianyin was not well versed in the Dao of Creation, and had failed to bring the Southern Emperor back to life. When Shen Mu arrived, he used the Dao of Creation to bring the Southern Emperor's body to life.
Studying the revived Southern Emperor closely, he found that Lady Tianyin had not remade a soul for her.
Lady Tianyin said in a low voice: "This was the Southern Emperor's own wish.
She did not want me to supply a soul; she said she has a soul, and that it is now called Bai Yuqiong. She has been waiting all this while for her own soul to return to its place. " Shen Mu's brows lifted.
He looked at the Southern Emperor Vermilion Bird — Yan'er was just then instructing the Southern Emperor in cultivation, and the Southern Emperor was still growing accustomed to her body, like a clumsy, fumbling adept, learning bit by bit the secret formulas for cultivating the divine repositories: the Spirit Fetus, the Star River, Xuandu, the Heavenly River. "The Southern Emperor has ambitions of her own.
Having thrown off the shackles of the ancient gods, she surely has aspirations of her own — she wants to surpass her former life. " Lady Tianyin said softly at his ear: "Bai Yuqiong is her soul. Even if I supplied her with a soul, it would not be as good as her original one.
Between her and Bai Yuqiong there is certain to be conflict. . . " Shen Mu withdrew his gaze and thought it over carefully, then said: "Bai Yuqiong and the Southern Emperor Vermilion Bird — the grudges and the bonds between them run too deep.
It is very hard to sort out which of them is the original and which the appendage. This matter can only be settled by the two of them.
" He resolved not to interfere between the two women, and said to Lady Tianyin: "In the days to come, Emperor Ming and Emperor Chi will arrive. When they do, I must ask you to lend your hand once more, to regulate Emperor Chi's soul and spirit. " Lady Tianyin hesitated: "I do not understand the Dao of Creation very well.
Stay a while, and leave after they arrive. " Shen Mu laughed: "Emperor Chi and Emperor Ming are great masters of the Dao of Creation. Rest assured — with them here, ask them whatever you do not understand.
By the way, Lady, I have at last fully grasped the Reincarnation Heavenly Palace and the Dao of Reincarnation of Yin Tianzi these past days, and I will pass them on to you. " His divine consciousness rippled, and he imparted to Lady Tianyin all that he had comprehended of the Dao of Reincarnation. This was the Dao of Yin Tianzi.
Yin Tianzi's talent had been exceedingly high and his aspirations vast, and the Dao of Reincarnation was exceedingly powerful — one might call it among the mightiest of the great Daos. But Yin Tianzi, hampered by his own aptitude, comprehension, and wisdom, had never deduced the Dao of Reincarnation to its highest reaches; and so he was only Yin Tianzi, the Black Emperor, the Nether Emperor — not the Heavenly Venerable of Reincarnation.
