785 Ostentation (1/2)
'Red Deity Qi Xiayu again!'
Qin Mu had a weird expression. How many people had Red Deity Qi Xiayu betrayed exactly?
Boyfriend Sakra Buddha had an unclear relationship with her, Bai Qu'er was chasing her for an answer, and now Feng Qiuyun of the phoenix race under Mother Earth also wanted to beat her to death.
Once Red Deity Qi Xiayu was out, furious shouts could be heard from everywhere.
'However, something is weird. Bai Qu'er is chasing Qi Xiayu because she betrayed the High Emperor Celestial Heavens that Bai Qu'er belongs to. Feng Qiuyun said she betrayed the phoenix race, and the phoenix race is attached to Mother Earth, who has also supported a High Emperor Celestial Heavens which had High Emperors for fifteen dynasties.'
Qin Mu sank deep into thought. 'Could these two celestial heavens be the same? Bai Qu'er has the bloodline of a divine dragon, and the dragon race is also considered half-gods, could she be a subject under Mother Earth? Yet it doesn't look like it...'
Bai Qu'er had once said this stunning sentence by High Emperor to Qin Mu, and that was that human lives are greater than heaven!
Qin Mu didn't understand much about the High Emperor Celestial Heavens that Mother Earth supported, but he knew that the pillars of strength for this High Emperor Celestial Heavens was mostly half-gods, and from the actions of these half-gods, he could see that they didn't treat human lives importantly at all. They could be said to be full of disdain and enmity for humans.
For example, when the water qilin revived and saw Qin Mu, Celestial Venerable Yu, and Sakra Buddha, he began to go off on how he was going to eat them to fill his stomach, how they were lowly creatures.
From just a small detail, one could see the big picture. In the High Emperor Celestial Heavens that Mother Earth supported, the position of the human race was extremely petty and low.
And in the celestial heavens that Bai Qu'er was in, it had the tradition of human lives being greater than heaven. Human lives included the lives of commoners, and they were all very important, so important that even gods had to use their lives to protect the people!
This was the one point that moved Qin Mu. This was the sentence he had left behind on the cliff just before he left that era.
'Which also means that Red Deity Qi Xiayu was born from Mother Earth's phoenix race and later betrayed the phoenix race to submit to the celestial heavens Bai Qu'er was in. After beating the previous Red Deity to death, she was seized as a prisoner and submitted to the extraterritorial celestial heavens.'
Qin Mu blinked his eyes. 'During the Founding Emperor Era, she got together with Li Youran and ended up betraying him. The conduct of this Sister Qi Xiayu seems to have some problems... However, the problem doesn't lie in her, it's in the High Emperor Celestial Heavens that Bai Qu'er was in!'
The philosophy of human lives being greater than heaven from the High Emperor Era could be said to be the foundation for Saint Woodcutter's reform during the Founding Emperor Era.
Furthermore, this philosophy also affected the Eternal Peace Era.
The Eternal Peace Empire carried out the path of the saint, which was sorted out from Woodcutter's teachings by Big Senior Brother Wei Suifeng. The young patriarch later imparted it to Eternal Peace Imperial Preceptor, and it became the stem of the Eternal Peace Empire.
The philosophy of three eras could be said to have been passed down from era to era and even developed continuously.
”Let us quickly head out!”
Feng Qiuyun hurried. ”In case that little slut escapes!”
Qin Mu couldn't resist saying, ”Sister Qiuyun, nearly all of the half-gods in the Primordial Realm are gathered in Jade Capital City. There's the existence that impersonated Mother Earth and also other gods and devils. The strong practitioners over there are as abundant as the clouds. If we barge in recklessly like this, we won't even have to wait for Red Deity to make a move, the other strong practitioners will probably beat us to death.”
Feng Qiuyun shook her head. ”That Mother Earth is a fake Mother Earth. As long as I unveil her identity, the half-gods will return to my side. With the power of the half-gods, killing Qi Xiayu, this traitor, would be a piece of cake!”
Qin Mu said with a smile, ”Sister's idea is too simple. If you rush in, the fake Mother Earth will definitely bewitch the half-gods to attack you, and you will become everyone's target. Before you can even meet Qi Xiayu, you will be eradicated.”
Feng Qiuyun stopped and turned her head. ”What idea do you have?”
Qin Mu asked, ”Does big sister have any of Mother Earth's keepsakes? Something to prove your identity and Mother Earth's identity?”
Feng Qiuyun sneered and said, ”Mother Earth is Mother Earth, why does she need to prove her identity? What skewed logic is that?”
Qin Mu said calmly, ”If you don't have a keepsake of Mother Earth, how can you prove that the other party is the fake Mother Earth? Those half-gods were called out by the other party, so they definitely have a keepsake. If you don't have one, how are you going to win over the trust of those half-gods?”
Feng Qiuyun frowned and asked after a moment, ”So what should we do?”
Qin Mu smiled and said, ”Since big sister has decided on going to Jade Capital City to tear down her facade, the grander the entrance, the better. Does Mother Earth have any carriage that represents her identity?”
Feng Qiuyun said, ”Yes, but it's too grand, and eight dragons and eight phoenixes are required to pull the carriage. If we were to take the carriage out, Mother Earth would most likely be alerted, and that wouldn't be good. Mother Earth won't agree to let me kill Slut Qi.”
Qin Mu pondered and asked, ”Does Mother Earth have any branches or anything else that looks more gorgeous?”
Feng Qiuyun's eyes lit up, and she smiled. ”Mother Earth once made a wooden sword to suppress the sacred gods in the worlds, it's called the Mother Earth Primordial Sword. This sword is right in the temple, let me fetch it!”
She went into the main hall of the dilapidated temple excitedly, and Qin Mu followed her in. He saw Feng Qiuyun bowing respectfully to the god statue of Mother Earth before walking to the back of the statue. On the wall hung a wooden sword.
Qin Mu was dumbfounded, and he asked, ”This wooden sword is the Mother Earth Primordial Sword that is used to suppress the worlds? It's hung right here?”
Feng Qiuyun nodded her head. ”It's this sword, it's usually hung here.”
Qin Mu had a weird expression as he glanced around the temple. His gaze landed on items like the offering table, shrine, incense burner, screen, as well as the praying mat.
'Could the two bronze bells hanging under the roof be good stuff too?'
