Tales of Herding Gods

Chapter 1201 – Fellow Daoist, Wait For Me

On this day, a huge change happened in the Primordial Realm. Celestial Venerable Ling, Celestial Venerable Yue, Celestial Venerable Huo, and the first Emperor of the High Emperor Heaven, Xiao Weisu, killed Mother Earth and destroyed the Primordial Tree.

The fifteenth South High Emperor Heaven led his army to attack the North High Emperor Celestial Heavens, eradicating this tumor of the Primordial Realm.

In this battle, South High Emperor unified the Primordial Realm, and there were countless stories that couldn’t be told.

On the day Mother Earth was beheaded, many inconceivable phenomena occurred. The collapse of the Primordial Tree was one thing, but there was also the chaos of space and the descent of the gods.

Some said that the legendary Celestial Venerable Hao of the extraterritorial celestial heavens had led the strong practitioners of the celestial heavens to descend and assist Celestial Venerable Yue, Celestial Venerable Huo, and the rest in killing Mother Earth.

There were also people who said that Celestial Venerable Yue lost control of her divine art, and Celestial Venerable Yue was severely injured by Mother Earth. She became crippled, and her face was ruined.

There were also people who said that Xiao Weisu was recognized by Celestial Venerable Yue and Celestial Venerable Ling and handed the chopped Primordial Tree to him.

Another person said that Celestial Venerable Ling, Celestial Venerable Huo, made the decision to let Xiao Weisu control the Primordial Realm.

However, since then, very few people saw Celestial Venerable Yue.

Celestial Venerable Ling also went into seclusion again, showing signs of retreating.

What happened that day had already become history, and no one knew.

On that day, Celestial Venerable Yue escaped back to her palace. If she wanted to leave, no one in the world could stop her. However, in order to save Celestial Venerable Ling, she did what she did in the dream.

She gave up her legs and face in exchange for Celestial Venerable Ling’s chance to escape.

She practically crawled back into her palace and immediately laid down all kinds of spatial seals, preventing Celestial Venerable Hao and the rest from finding her.

“Yan’er, bring a screen over. Don’t let anyone see me,” she said with a trembling voice.

The screen covered her, and Yan’er very considerately lit the lantern for her.

Celestial Venerable Yue trembled as she picked up the mirror. Looking at the ugly face in the mirror, she threw the mirror away.

At this moment, a figure walked over silently, but Yan’er and the other palace maids didn’t seem to see him.

Qin Mu walked towards the screen. Celestial Venerable Yue covered her face and said in a hoarse voice, “Don’t come over. I don’t want you to see me like this!”

Qin Mu pushed open the screen, and Celestial Venerable Yue screamed. No matter which direction Qin Mu walked towards, the screen would always block his path.

“Yue.”

Qin Mu stood in front of the screen and said softly, “I’m going back.”

Celestial Venerable Yue remained silent.

Qin Mu continued to say, “I can’t save you now. I can’t solve Xiao Weisu’s Innate Qi, nor can I solve Celestial Venerable Huo’s divine art. However, in the future, when your peach tree grows throughout the thousands of worlds, when I bring this painting back, you will return to your original appearance. At that time, you will still be Celestial Venerable Yue.”

He bowed and left. “Dao friend, wait for me.”

There was silence behind the screen.

After a long time, the woman behind the screen bowed slightly in the shadow.

Time flew.

The end of High Emperor Era was already set in stone.

Mother Earth died, and Celestial Venerable Yue was severely injured, leaving Celestial Venerable Ling alone. However, Celestial Venerable Ling had remarkable abilities and unimaginable abilities, especially in the last years of the High Emperor Era. Once her divine arts were executed, no one could match her.

However, it was easy to dodge a spear in the open, but hard to defend against an arrow in the dark. Celestial Venerable Ling was ambushed by Celestial Emperor and died in the celestial river.

A prosperous dynasty that had lasted for three hundred thousand years became extinct.

That year, a young girl from the White Dragon Clan carried a long sword on her back and led countless people in ragged clothes to avoid the pursuit of the gods and devils of the extraterritorial celestial heavens. She endured countless hardships and finally came to the East Sea.

She led the survivors of High Emperor to the sea.

After an unknown period of time, they came across a floating island on the surface of the sea. Peach blossoms bloomed on the island, and it was extremely beautiful.

The owner of that place received them. The owner had a weird temper and didn’t see any guests, only hiding behind the screen.

“I can send you guys to hide in a hidden heaven.”

The owner of the peach garden said to the white dragon girl, “When the High Emperor Calamity is over, you can return to this land.”

The White Dragon Clan thanked him.

She frequently waved her sword light, and the owner of the peach garden would sit in a wheelchair and be pushed out by a girl. With a veil covering her face, she would faintly watch her dance with her sword.

The sword danced like a fish and dragon, illuminating the East Sea.

The White Dragon Clan discovered many strange things on the floating island. They walked randomly from the peach forest on the island. Sometimes, they walked to other heavens, sometimes to the Primordial Realm, and sometimes even to Youdu and Xuandu.

She also discovered that the owner of the peach garden had a strange temper. She always asked the girl called Yan’er where the peach forest grew.

The White Dragon Clan had heard that this strange peach forest was planted by the owner of the peach garden back then. It had developed to its current scale after thousands of years.

She even heard from Yan’er that the owner of the peach garden was waiting for a person. That person would only appear when the peach garden was full of worlds.

In the end, the White Dragon Clan led their clansmen through the peach forest and entered a hidden heaven. They settled down and reproduced.

The White Dragon Clan also frequently came out to teach the people of the Primordial Realm paths, skills, and divine arts, promoting the philosophy of the High Emperor Era.

She was honored as High Emperor Sword God.

She would still pass by the peach forest from time to time. The peach forest had already grown into many heavens, but the owner of the peach garden still hadn’t found the person she was waiting for.

The White Dragon Clan met a youth called Qin Ye and Wen Tiange, who knew how to chop firewood. Di Yiyue, who had a bad temper, and Yan Yunxi, who was an elegant woman dressed as a man.

She was still walking in the world. The owner of the peach garden was waiting for someone, and she was also waiting for someone.

Unknowingly, twenty thousand years had passed, and Founding Emperor’s celestial heavens had turned into dust. The glory of the past had turned into ruins. The owner of the peach forest still hadn’t found that person, and she hadn’t found that person either.

After another twenty thousand years of darkness, the White Dragon Clan searched bitterly for clues about that person.

On this day, she passed by the source of the Surging River, and the fog in the river gradually rose. The young girl carrying the divine sword couldn’t help but sigh ruefully. This river had buried too much history, so much so that the surging river water had become the whimpering of time.

At this moment, she saw the gods of the celestial heavens rushing over.

The gods of the celestial heavens were chasing after a girl carrying a basket. She had saved the girl, but she was already exhausted.

She admired this heroine and escorted her forward. However, that girl still fell in Surging River in the end.

In the basket was a tiny baby crying loudly.

On his chest was a Qin jade pendant.

When night fell, the White Dragon Clan sent the baby to a small village beside Surging River.

“Listen!”

An old granny’s voice came from the village, “There’s a child crying outside!”

In the Surging River that was forty-six years later, waves surged, and huge waves crashed into the sky, splitting the shore.

The fog rose again, and rays of light flashed past. Qin Mu brought Wei Suifeng, King Dragon Count, Feng Qiuyun, Lin Xiao, the Feathered Forest Guards, and tens of thousands of strong practitioners to appear on the river surface.

Violent winds blew, and the waves were very high, blowing away the fog. Divine force burst forth on the river surface, stopping the wind and flattening the waves. The Feathered Forest Guards were in a somber mood.
