Chapter 85: Chang'e's Bitter Love After Hou Yi's Transformation into Wu Gang

  Time passed quickly, and Hou Yi expected Chang'e to continue rising. In a short while, the two had already arrived at the Heavenly Court of the You tribe, and continued to fly towards the Taiyin star. Hou Yi wanted to stop her but it was impossible.

  Hou Yi and Chang'e flew through the heavenly court like two abandoned people, only to be discovered and stopped by the heavenly guards. However, their powers were far inferior to those of Hou Yi, so they could only report back to their superiors. In no time at all, the news had reached Emperor Jun and Taiyi.

  Originally, Emperor Jun, Taiyi, Kunpeng, Fuxi and others were discussing matters when the general in front of the palace came to report that Hou Yi, the murderer who killed his son, dared to swagger in the heavenly court. The anger was overwhelming, especially the demon queen Xi, who was furious and went with Emperor Jun and others to investigate the situation. Since killing you would harm the luck of the demon tribe, I will make you worse off than dead.

  Just as everyone was about to capture Hou Yi, making him wish he were dead, they suddenly saw Chang'e being chased by Hou Yi and were shocked, then delighted, washing away some of the sorrow of their children's deaths.

  Xihe said: "Sister" Taiyi, Emperor Jun, Fuxi, Kunpeng and others were even more astonished, calling out "Changxi Immortal", especially the Eastern Emperor Taiyi who was extremely excited, saying in a low voice: "She's alive, she's come back to see me."

  Chang'e saw Xihe and others, then said: "I have seen my sister, brother-in-law, Taiyi brother, Fuxi brother, Kunpeng demon master." Chang'e looked at her past relatives and friends with a complex expression. The two people who were educated to be enemies from birth in this life, Emperor Jun and Taiyi, had originally occupied the upper hand of consciousness by Changxi's memories of his past life. However, due to the hatred for the demon tribe in the bloodline, Chang'e's consciousness in this life was suddenly activated, turning defense into offense, with Chang'e's consciousness as the main one.

  Di Jun and the others didn't know why Chang'e, who had just been unusually affectionate towards them, suddenly changed her expression to one of hatred. Taiyi was afraid that Chang'e would do something irrational, so he took action first to subdue her.

  Originally by Chang'e's side, Hou Yi was shocked by Chang'e's identity and had not yet figured out their relationship. However, when he saw Taiyi make a move on Chang'e, it was something Hou Yi could not tolerate. Even though his current strength was far inferior to Taiyi's, Hou Yi still took action.

  Hou Yi intercepted Taiyi and thought Taiyi would harm Chang'e, so he immediately engaged in a fierce battle with Taiyi after intercepting him. Taiyi did not use the Hunyuan Bell or any other means, but simply fought Hou Yi with his physical body.

  Taiyi's physical body, although not specifically refined for the flesh, was also tempered by his own solar true fire. Although it was slightly inferior to Zu Wu's true body, it was not a hair's breadth weaker than Hou Yi's physical strength, which was still one step away from Zu Wu's realm.

  Although the two were not very clear about each other's specific relationship with Chang'e, they both roughly felt that the other was their own love rival. The two fought fiercely together, with every punch landing on flesh, and various auras constantly impacting the surrounding environment, destroying the original fairyland.

  Taiyi kicked out with one foot, and Hou Yi also used his foot to resist. Taiyi wanted to show who was the real strongman in front of Chang'e, so he used all his physical strength. However, Hou Yi was not easy to mess with, and when Taiyi didn't use his full force, Hou Yi could still resist.

  Taiyi saw that it was impossible to defeat Hou Yi in a short period of time, so he decided to go all out. With Taiyi's full strength, Hou Yi finally couldn't withstand the powerful attack of Taiyi's quasi-sage late stage and retreated step by step. In just a few moves, he had already been severely injured by Taiyi.

  Just as Taiyi was about to deliver the fatal blow to Hou Yi, no longer concerned with Hou Yi's great merit and fortune, Chang'e suddenly stood in front of Hou Yi and took a palm strike on his behalf. Although Chang'e had the power of Daluo Jinxian at this time, she was concentrated by Taiyi, an almost-saintly being, and even though Taiyi discovered that something was amiss and withdrew 90% of her strength, it still caused immense harm to Chang'e, who now hung on by a thread.

  Hou Yi saw the person he loved standing in front of him and shouted loudly: "Chang'e, no, quickly move aside." Then he saw Chang'e being struck by Taiyi and flying towards him. Hou Yi hurriedly used all his strength to hold her up and stretched out his hand to catch Chang'e.

  Taiyi also loudly shouted: "No!" The Emperor Jun, Xihe, Fuxi, and Kunpeng on the side were too far away from Chang'e to react in time, but Taiyi's loud shout was heard: "Taiyi, stop! Changxi, quickly dodge!"

  After Hou Yi caught Chang'e, he saw the bloodstains at the corner of her mouth and felt an unbearable pain. He only heard Chang'e say: "Sister, brother-in-law, Taiyi elder brother, Fuxi elder brother, please spare Hou Yi's life." After finishing speaking, Chang'e looked at everyone with hopeful eyes. The people present originally wanted to refuse, but when they met Chang'e's hopeful gaze, they didn't know how to respond.

  The crowd didn't stay silent for long, and eventually Xihe, Chang'e's sister, saw that Chang'e's life force was getting weaker and weaker. With their deep sisterly love, she didn't want to disappoint Chang'e by leaving, so she said to her: "Alright, I'll grant your wish this time and spare Hou Yi's life." Chang'e thanked Xihe after hearing her response and then turned to Taiyi, saying: "Taiyi, I understand your intentions, but alas, fate is playing tricks on us. I'm sorry for not being able to fulfill my promise to you. I don't dare ask for your forgiveness, but I believe you'll find a better bride than me."

  Chang'e then said to Hou Yi, "Hou Yi, big brother, you must live a good life." After Chang'e finished speaking, she didn't wait for anyone's response and closed her eyes, revealing a relieved smile on her face.

  Taiyi saw the situation at this time and said in a low voice: "It won't happen, Chang'e won't die. I've withdrawn most of my palm strength, she won't die, I won't let you die." After finishing speaking, he pushed the seriously injured Hou Yi to one side, and himself went to Chang'e's side, frantically transporting his magic power to prolong Chang'e's life force, but the effect was not obvious.

  After hearing Taiyi's words, Bian Shang Fuxi's complexion slightly improved. He then came to Chang'e's side and used his divine sense to examine her body. He found that although Chang'e's injuries were severe, they were not fatal. However, why did everyone feel that Chang'e's life force was weakening?

  Fuxi thought for a moment and understood that Chang'e was heartbroken. Fuxi said at this time: "Changxi still has a chance to be saved, her body has suffered severe injuries, but it's not fatal yet. The fatal injury is the death of the heart, without the will to survive. She is escaping from seeing Taiyi Dao and Hou Yi. Now we can only stimulate Chang'e's heart and let him regain his desire to survive."

  The crowd was overjoyed when they heard Fuxi's words, but soon furrowed their brows. Although the crowd were all powerful beings in the vast wilderness of Honghuang, no one had ever heard of anyone having a divine ability to revive someone who had already died.

  While everyone was trying to figure out a way to stimulate Changxi's will to live, Changxi's life force was getting weaker and weaker. Just as everyone was at a loss for what to do, Changxi's sister Xihe suddenly pulled out a jade bottle, put the opening of the bottle to Changxi's mouth, and poured some water into his mouth.

  Xī Hé explained, seeing the puzzled expressions of everyone: "The bottle just now contained a special product from my Taìyīn Star, the juice inside the bay laurel tree, called Forgetting Water. Its only effect is to forget past events. At this time, if my sister drinks the Forgetting Water, she will forget everything that happened before and won't remember anyone among us. She'll be as pure as a newborn baby. I believe that without all these troubles, my sister's will to live should strengthen."

  The only worry is that my sister's strength is too powerful, and the effect of the Forgetting Water on her may be somewhat reduced. The only way to deal with this is to give it to her at irregular intervals. However, relying on the laurel tree to naturally secrete the Forgetting Water is too slow, so I can only occasionally peel the bark off the laurel tree in order to collect enough of the Forgetting Water."

  Not long after, Chang'e finally opened her eyes and curiously looked around at everything, asking the crowd: "Who are you? Where is this place, who am I?" Just as Xihe and Taiyi, Hou Yi were about to answer, Emperor Jun said: You are the new master of the Taixin Star Palace, this is the Heavenly Court, I am the master of the Heavenly Court, Emperor Jun, this is the demon queen Xihe, the Eastern Emperor Taiyi, the Western Emperor Fuxi, and the demon teacher Kunpeng.

  As for his mother? She's a witch, some time ago he took you back to his own tribe, didn't think that again you would go out, then you swallowed the golden elixir given by Gaotian, and flew up to the heavenly realm. He is the bad guy who followed you here, wanting to take you back." Chang'e saw Hou Yi not refuting Emperor Jun's words, took them as true, and naturally didn't have a good expression towards Hou Yi. Afterward, Chang'e chatted with everyone for a bit before letting her return to Taiyin Star.

  Hou Yi was then unable to speak, originally Emperor Jun had subdued the heavily injured Hou Yi as soon as he opened his mouth to speak, not allowing him to make any moves. On the other hand, he transmitted a message to everyone: "Chang'e will not die this time and must have good fortune in the future. This time Chang'e is reborn, and the karma of our actions and the cause of this calamity have been eliminated, she will no longer fall into this great calamity."

  The calamity is treacherous and unpredictable, fortune and disaster are hard to predict. Let Chang'e's sister stay far away from the great calamity, it's better than us struggling again." Everyone who heard Emperor Jun's words thought deeply about it, so they didn't speak nonsense in front of Chang'e until she left, then Xihe said: "This method is good, but there is still a hidden danger, that is to make her absorb the forgetful water from time to time, this is difficult to do."

  Fuxi said: "At this time, it's hard to say whether it's difficult or easy. All that's needed is for the queen to communicate with the Taiyin star as its master, and issue a ban on Changxi leaving the Taiyin star palace for an extended period. Moreover, set up strong defensive bans around Changxi to ensure her safety, and order a powerful person to constantly scrape off the bark of the Osmanthus tree day and night, so that the forgetful water inside the Osmanthus tree can be released in the moon palace for Changxi to absorb unknowingly."

  Among the crowd, those who were closest to Chang Xi were Emperor Jun, Tai Yi, and Xihe. They all wanted to respond, but at this time, the three of them had extraordinary identities and didn't have the time to leave the Moon Palace day and night. As for Fuxi and Kunpeng, their relationship with Chang Xi hadn't developed to that point yet, so it was impossible for them to waste their cultivation time for just one person like Chang Xi.

  At this moment, Hou Yi suddenly said: "From now on I will be Wu Gang, no longer Hou Yi." After finishing speaking, Hou Yi's bow for shooting the sun suddenly transformed into an axe, and Hou Yi carried the axe towards the Taiyin star without leaving the crowd.
