Chapter 121 Three Lives, Three Worlds, Southern Beginning 3
The relationship between Zheyan and the Bai family has become somewhat delicate, while Bai Zhi and Ning Chang are still traveling the world.
Bai Zhen had never suffered any setbacks. He had a good relationship with Zhe Yan before, and Zhe Yan was very tolerant of him. As the fourth son of the Fox Emperor of Qingqiu, the Bai family had four high gods, so there was no need for him to compromise. Therefore, he had no intention of apologizing to Zhe Yan.
As for Zheyan, he is a supreme god from ancient times. Do you really expect him to sue for peace?
Therefore, the relationship between Zheyan and the Bai family became delicate.
Nan Chu didn't care about any of that; her life continued as before, with her cultivating, planting herbs, and reading every day.
Zheyan's collection of books has been opened to the Southern Chu Kingdom, and it contains collections dating back hundreds of thousands of years.
Zheyan's preference is for medicine, and most of the books in his collection are related to medicine.
"Zheyan, can you teach me medicine?" Nan Chu asked, staring blankly at the sky, once again unable to understand what the book was about.
"You're still young, you can play for a while." Zheyan felt sorry for Nan Chu, who was so tired every day. After all, she was only a few hundred years old, not even a fraction of his age.
"Zheyan, teach me quickly! And what's so fun about it? It's not as interesting as cultivating or reading." Nan Chu tilted her head and asked in confusion.
"Alright, but you can't say you're tired. Starting today, this deity will begin teaching you medicine." Zheyan waved his fan, and seeing Nan Chu's sparkling eyes, he couldn't bear to refuse her.
In the blink of an eye, 20,000 years had passed. Nan Chu had been cultivating in the Ten Mile Peach Blossom Forest. Suddenly one day, the spiritual energy of the Ten Mile Peach Blossom Forest swirled towards Nan Chu's house.
Zheyan arrived at Nan Chu's house immediately; of course he knew about the commotion.
Nan Chu was in deep meditation. When she could no longer suppress her cultivation, she opened her eyes, quickly left the house, and came to an open space in the Ten Mile Peach Blossom Forest.
In an instant, dark clouds gathered over the ten-mile peach forest, accompanied by lightning and thunder.
Nan Chu looked fearless at the churning sky.
Zheyan stood on the outside, his face filled with worry. He could help Nan Chu block the lightning tribulation, but unfortunately, Nan Chu did not want his help. Zheyan could only pray in his heart that Nan Chu could successfully become an immortal.
Before long, the thunderclouds had gathered enough, and the sky was instantly torn apart by a blinding light, with silver snake-like rays of light sliding down through the air.
Nan Chu took the direct hit of the lightning, her body wracked with pain, and her face contorted in agony.
Lei Yun didn't give Nan Chu much time to prepare. The second bolt of lightning tore through the sky, as sharp as a sword, and hurtled straight down towards Nan Chu's position.
As bolts of lightning struck, Nan Chu took advantage of the lull between them to swallow the recovery medicine that Zhe Yan had prepared for her.
The last lightning bolt, unlike the previous ones, fell rapidly. It seemed to have been brewing for a long time, and the lightning streaked through the clouds, as if the heavens and earth were trembling.
Nan Chu looked up at the sky. A beam of light ripped across the horizon, and the thunder roared like a giant beast, as if it would tear her to pieces, a terrifying sight.
Nan Chu took flight, soaring straight up, the enormous lightning contrasting sharply with her slender figure.
Nan Chu endured immense pain, and willpower became the only secret to her success.
A figure fell from the sky, the dark clouds dispersed, and a spiritual rain fell. Nan Chu quickly sat down to meditate and absorb the abundant spiritual energy in the air.
The spiritual energy in the rain seemed to be stripped away, forming a vortex that surged into Nan Chu's body.
"Sigh—" Zheyan breathed a sigh of relief. It was finally over. He had been worried sick.
"Is this a little phoenix?" Donghua raised an eyebrow and said calmly.
“This child has good talent!” Mo Yuan nodded, indicating his agreement with Donghua’s opinion.
"By the way, this little phoenix hasn't taken on a master yet, has it? Why not become my disciple?" Yao Guang asked Zhe Yan.
When Nan Chu was undergoing the tribulation of lightning, Dong Hua, Mo Yuan, and Yao Guang all came.
The main reason is that this tribulation was very unusual. Normally, a deity would only undergo three tribulations, but Nan Chu actually endured forty-nine tribulations this time.
This phenomenon was also unusual in ancient times, proving that Nan Chu was very gifted.
Zheyan was speechless. Did his little phoenix really need to learn from someone else?
Seeing that Nan Chu had recovered and her injuries were basically healed.
Donghua, Moyuan, and Yaoguang were momentarily stunned when a woman dressed in red appeared before them. Her exquisite face even made Donghua and the others, who were usually so fond of beautiful women, a little dazed.
Previously, Nan Chu had a three-headed body, but now that she has become an immortal, she has finally broken through the suppression of the Heavenly Dao, and her body has matured.
Nan Chu had a simple updo, arched eyebrows, eyes as bright as stars, fair skin with a faint pink tinge, cherry lips and a delicate nose, her beauty was breathtaking.
Donghua was instantly drawn to the person in front of him, and his once-beating heart began to throb with excitement.
Nan Chu glanced at Donghua, Moyuan, and Yaoguang, then smiled faintly at Zheyan, her dimples appearing and disappearing on her face, and asked, "Zheyan, who are these people?"
Donghua coughed and winked at Zheyan, who reluctantly explained, "This is Emperor Donghua, this is the God of War Moyuan, and this is the Goddess of War Yaoguang."
Nan Chu was bowing to the gods when, before he could finish, he was lifted up by an invisible force.
"No need for formalities," Donghua waved his hand.
Donghua could naturally tell that Nan Chu was a little phoenix, who had just turned 20,000 years old and had already become an immortal, proving that this woman had great talent.
"Little guy, do you want to become my apprentice?" Yao Guang asked directly.
Nan Chu did not want to have too much contact with this group of people. She contacted Zheyan because Zheyan was the only phoenix in the world who could protect her during her childhood.
In the original drama, Yao Guang perished, and Mo Yuan and Dong Hua also had unfortunate fates. Nan Chu really didn't want to get involved. She only needed to find something outside the rules, use those things to hone her skills in the Underworld, and complete her mission.
The system had already told her that Heaven had left a glimmer of hope for this world, and as long as she improved her strength and followed the steps, she could basically complete the mission.
Zheyan noticed Nan Chu's dazed expression and assumed that Nan Chu did not want to become a disciple, so he quickly changed the subject: "Well done, Yao Guang, you want to steal my disciple."
"Thank you for your kindness, Goddess Yaoguang. I am not talented enough and would like to learn more before I decide to become your disciple. Thank you, Goddess Yaoguang." After thinking it over, Nan Chu decided to politely decline Goddess Yaoguang's offer.
Yao Guang didn't say anything more. Besides, she also admired talent, and she had calculated that she and Nan Chu did not have a master-disciple relationship.
"Since there's nothing else, I'll be leaving now." Mo Yuan indicated that he still had more than a dozen disciples to discipline.
Mo Yuan left, and Yao Guang followed him away.
Nan Chu looked at Dong Hua with a puzzled expression, as if to say, "They've all left, why haven't you left yet?"
Donghua was charmed by Nan Chu's cute little expression, chuckled, and said, "Zheyan, let Nan Chu come to Taichen Palace to play sometime."
Zheyan rolled his eyes and said, "You should leave now!"
Zheyan expressed that he did not want Nan Chu to come to Taichen Palace at all, and he always felt uneasy. When he saw Nan Chu’s beautiful face, Zheyan’s heart began to beat very fast.
