Emperor Jun and Xi He were married, and Nuwa naturally couldn’t go empty-handed. Ordinary treasures would not catch their eye, and those too precious were hard for Nuwa to part with. So after much contemplation, she decided to gift them with several red threads of destiny.

At that time, she thought that when Emperor Jun and Xi He had descendants, they might need them for marriage in the future, not for Xi He to use on herself.

"Hatred blinds one’s sight!"

Xuanqing couldn’t help but sigh.

Having listened to Nuwa explaining the origin of the red threads in Xi He’s hands, as well as her considerations at the time, he also understood that this matter indeed had little to do with Nuwa!

He continued to consult her: "May I ask Your Ladyship, is there a way to sever the red thread of destiny?"

"You can’t cut it, and if you try to, it only becomes more entangled!"

Upon hearing this, Nuwa shook her head: "The way of marital fate, like the way of causality, is similarly intricate. Since Xi He has anchored the red thread with the hatred in her heart, unless Hou Yi dies, or Xi He lets go of her hatred, this red thread of destiny cannot be severed!"

Love and hate, marriage and fate, all stem from the seven emotions and six desires within the heart, much like the heart demons that cultivators face. If the heart demon is not eradicated, when one thought perishes another springs forth in an instant.

The way of marriage and fate is profound and mystical, not much different from the way of causality.

It can disturb a person’s Dao heart, blind one’s true spirit, lead one into calamity, and make a Daluo Quasi-Saint devoid of desires and needs be instantly mired in the sea of suffering like a mortal.

It can wrap a person in the seven emotions, immerse them in six desires, endlessly spawn heart demons, and even make a mortal brazenly challenge the immortals and gods.

"Too terrifying!"

Xuanqing shivered uncontrollably.

Being trapped in a calamity of emotions can sometimes be far more terrifying than confronting a heavenly tribulation or a heart demon, easily spawning thoughts of dragging all beings in the Three Realms into death with oneself.

"However, it’s not that there’s no solution!"

Nuwa suddenly smiled: "The Western Jieyin Daoist possesses a Spiritual Treasure called the Six Roots Pure Bamboo, which can sever all seven emotions and six desires, surely capable of eliminating the influence of the red thread, making one free from desire and need!"

"Let’s just forget it!"

Xuanqing shook his head: "I think it’s easier to simply kill Xi He!"

He was just curious and didn’t plan to entangle himself with the Great Sect Leader of the West over Hou Yi. Killing Xi He, too, could sever the red thread and the causality between them... Why complicate matters needlessly?

Nuwa’s ethereal figure slowly dissipated. Although she felt some regret over Xi He’s situation, she did not intend to interfere. She preferred to respect the destiny of others, letting go of the urge to help, and to follow the natural course of events.

Elsewhere, Hou Yi was so deeply in love with Chang’e that he even planned to seek an immortal pill from The Queen Mother of the West to keep Chang’e’s youth eternal.

Hou Yi left the Witch Tribe and successfully obtained the Immortal Pill from The Queen Mother of the West, but on his return, he was ambushed by the Demon Clan.

Fortunately, the Ancestor Witch Xuanming "just happened" to pass by, not only rescuing the ambushed Hou Yi but also effortlessly killing several Demon Gods in ambush!

Xi He was furious beyond measure.

But despite thinking long and hard, she couldn’t figure out where her plan had gone wrong?

At this moment, Xuanqing’s Fire Dao incarnation was in front of Zhu Rong, slightly nodding: "With the intervention of Ancestor Witch Xuanming, Great Witch Hou Yi must be safe and sound. I hope the Ancestor Witch will honor his promise and give me a strand of the ’Devastating Divine Fire’ origin."

"Of course!"

Zhu Rong immediately nodded.

Had it not been for Xuanqing revealing Xi He’s poisonous plot, they might have lost a Great Witch and would not have been able to turn the tables on the Demon Clan!

"These Demon Clan members, lacking in strength, always resort to such petty tricks!"

Zhu Rong cursed the Demon Clan while separating out a strand of the "Devastating Divine Fire" origin: "I want to see what tricks that Lady Xi He can come up with next."

At this moment, Zhu Rong already knew that Chang’e, who had bewitched Hou Yi to his wits’ end, was transformed from Xi He’s Good Corpse, but he did not rush to slay her.

The Twelve Ancestor Witches were also quite cunning. The reason they kept Chang’e around was to fish, to see if the Demon Clan would send more members to the lower realm.

The Ancestor Witch of Time, Zhu Jiuyin, was also secretly lying in wait, closely observing Chang’e’s every move.

The Fire Dao incarnation of Xuanqing, happy and contented, immediately took the origin of the Devastating Divine Fire and left, not intending to get involved in the affairs that followed.

Meanwhile, Xi He, having failed in her plot, struck out in frustration. After Good Corpse Chang’e had taken the Immortal Pill, Xi He directly triggered the Taiyin Origin Power within Chang’e’s body, causing her to involuntarily fly towards the Taiyin Star.

Hou Yi, too, was shocked by this sudden turn of events, with no time to think, he chased after her, intending to first help suppress the Power of Taiyin within Chang’e.

"What a fool, Hou Yi is!"

Zhu Jiuyin, who had been observing secretly, couldn’t help shaking his head, and immediately followed: "However, his actions have also created an opportunity for our Witch Clan!"

There were some things he did not tell Hou Yi, for fear of exposing his own schemes.

Drawn by the Power of Taiyin, Chang’e flew higher and higher, approaching the Ancient Starry Sky. But at that moment, time seemed to come to a standstill.

"Time Stasis!"

At this moment, the one with the ability was naturally the Ancestor Witch of Time, Zhu Jiuyin!

With just a thought, he froze the space-time around him, arriving in front of Hou Yi and Chang’e: "Hou Yi, be careful not to fall for the Demon Clan’s tricks!"

Xi He, upon the Taiyin Star, ground her teeth upon seeing this scene, transforming into a beam of light and charging towards Zhu Jiuyin and Hou Yi.

She did not know why her plan failed, but she understood that if she let Hou Yi escape again, it would be much harder to find another chance for revenge!

"Hou Yi, meet your death!"

With a furious roar from Xi He, the endless Powers of Taiyin and the sun converged, evolving into a brilliant river of stars, bearing down directly on Hou Yi.

"Bring it on!"

Zhu Jiuyin let out a hearty laugh, as the endless Power of Time gathered, reversing the heavens and the earth, manipulating the Time Blade, evolving tens of thousands of them right in front of Hou Yi!

Time lingered, space was in chaos, and the numerous potential futures collapsed at this moment into one single outcome.

This time, it was not Xi He who wanted to kill Hou Yi, but Zhu Jiuyin who sought to slay Xi He!

Boom!

The forces of Yin Yang and Time collided, instantly stirring up endless Chaos Qi, while earth, water, wind, and fire broke out, evolving into a Void Storm in the vault of heaven.

Zhu Jiuyin then used his formidable Physical Body to instantly traverse the Void Storm, carrying the limitless force of the ages as he charged towards the True Spirit of Xi He.

"Explode!"

Xi He was decisive, self-detonating her Evil Corpse, attempting to stop Zhu Jiuyin’s offensive and create a chance to kill Hou Yi.

"Cuiwei Yin Yang Lamp!"

She immediately sacrificed an Innate Spiritual Treasure, the infinite "Cuiwei Divine Fire" erupting into nine green Fire Dragons, instantly charging towards Hou Yi.

"Is it that easy?"

Suddenly, a figure brimming with Evil Qi appeared in the void: "Xi He, to think you can assassinate our Great Witch of the Witch Clan is nothing but delusional and overestimating your own abilities, have you even asked me, Emperor Jiang?"

The Witch Clan came prepared, naturally not letting Zhu Jiuyin take action alone. On leaving the Witch Tribe, Zhu Jiuyin had specifically notified the Ancestor Witch of Space, Emperor Jiang.

"Die!"

Emperor Jiang threw a punch, shattering endless space, collapsing the void as if to recreate the heavens and earth, the nine green Fire Dragons were instantly swallowed by the endless void.

And this punch traversed a million miles in an instant, roaring towards Xi He’s body.

"I’ll fight you with everything I’ve got!"

Xi He, too, had her eyes blood red with killing intent, going all-out, directly propelling the "Cuiwei Yin Yang Lamp" at full power, recklessly meeting Emperor Jiang’s Divine Skills head-on.
