Muscular Rabbits Legion: “No one can escape from the novice village!”
Chapter 475 - Chapter 475 Chapter 465 Divine Realm Heavenly Realm

Chapter 475: Chapter 465: Divine Realm, Heavenly Realm Chapter 475: Chapter 465: Divine Realm, Heavenly Realm Yi Zheng curiously stretched his ears.

The Queen Mother of the West sat on the alchemy furnace, lazily kicking her little feet and said, “But these guys are all no good, relying on their power in Kunlun, pouring boiling water into anthills, plucking birds, digging out demon beast inner cores to force them to cultivate again, giving snakes an extra pair of legs pretending to be dragons only to be struck dead by lightning…”

Lu Wu monopolized all the vegetation on Kunlun Mountain, with rabbits having to offer benefits for every blade of grass they ate, and many animals were so exploited that they barely survived, with even mice afraid to reproduce for fear of not being able to afford their ‘food fees’.”

Brother Kaiming, making use of his multiple heads, watched over the nine gates daily to collect toll fees. All passing demons, ghosts, monsters, and divine beings had to pay, and the price was at his whim, causing many mountain demons and wild monsters to be separated by a single door, unable to unite with their families.

Ying Zhao was even worse, with his adept skills in calling winds and summoning rains, he controlled the climate of Kunlun Mountain. If one wanted good weather, they had to offer him tribute. If he was in a bad mood, there would be fierce windstorms, blizzards in winter, and scorching heat in summer…”

Rare, although relatively better, used his speed to rob homes, swiftly looting someone’s house when they were not careful.

In summary, these four fellows were utterly despicable with no bottom line.

Listening to these bizarre operations, Yi Zheng thought they were truly villainous.

On Earth, they would definitely be considered the worst of the worst.

Curious again, Yi Zheng asked, “Great Queen Mother, why did you come here then?”

Her face darkening, The Queen Mother of the West said, “Do you think I wanted to come here? In the past, I lived on a mountain of gold and jade, where the land was scattered with Phoenix Gold, Dragon Scale Jade, and grew Golden Trees, Jade Melons, and other rare treasures… unfortunately…”

At this point, The Queen Mother of the West’s little face darkened and her small tiger teeth ground together, making a gagging sound.

Yi Zheng asked, “Then what happened?”

The Queen Mother of the West said, “Then? Then that bastard Gonggong, in his efforts to control the floods, used the mountain ranges of the world to move my mountain and throw it into the river to block the water sources!”

Listening to this, Yi Zheng was momentarily speechless, but he became even more curious. “Great Queen Mother, but isn’t Gonggong the Water God? When there’s a great flood, can’t he simply reverse the flow of the river with a single thought? Was there really a need to throw mountains into it?”

The Queen Mother of the West glanced at him and said, “Who told you Gonggong was the Water God?”

Stunned, Yi Zheng scratched his head, “That’s what the people from my hometown said. They claimed that Gonggong is the Water God who battled Zhu Rong, but lost and crashed into Buzhou Mountain, and then Nvwa had to mend the sky and all that.”

The Queen Mother of the West suddenly froze. “Gonggong is the Water God?

That’s just nonsense.

Gonggong is nowhere proficient at controlling water. He is just a terrestrial turtle.

Let alone controlling water, he struggles with swimming.

Because he dislikes water, he prefers to fight against it.

Wherever there’s a great flood, he leads others to control it.

His method of flood control is pretty brute force–it involves grabbing nearby mountains and throwing them into the water to block the water’s eyes or river paths, forcing the water to change course.

I guess, it must have been those ignorant folks, who, having survived thanks to the rivers changing course, started calling him the Water God.”

Yi Zheng was lost for words. This Water God turned out to be a land-bound dry duck, which was just too damn hard to comprehend.

Moreover, Gonggong’s title as the Water God came from flood control.

And his flood control wasn’t even to save people, but rather because he was displeased with the water!

This…

Yi Zheng felt his entire world view was about to collapse.

A huffing Queen Mother of the West said, “Anyway, that bastard’s brain must have malfunctioned, using the mountain ranges to take away my mountain of gold and jade, throwing it into the water to block the source.”

Yi Zheng said, “Damn, that’s too much. Great Queen Mother, how could you tolerate that? Didn’t you want to beat him black and blue?”

Grinding her small tiger teeth and waving her fists, The Queen Mother of the West said, “Could I spoil him like that? With a mountain in my left hand, and a piece of sky in my right, I chased him and pounded him for eight hundred years! If it hadn’t been for Lady Houtu coming later to plead on his behalf, I would have not only beaten him to death, but also skinned him alive!”

Yi Zheng said, “Does Lady Houtu have such a big influence?”

The Queen Mother replied, “It’s not about influence; rather, she proposed compensation.”

Yi Zheng, with a shudder, said, “She didn’t compensate you with Kunlun Mountain, did she?”

The Queen Mother nodded, “Yes, she compensated me with Kunlun Mountain.”

Yi Zheng was surprised. “Lady Houtu could give you Kunlun Mountain? She… she manages Hell, doesn’t she?”

The Queen Mother laughed, “Manage Hell? She does indeed, but that’s just part of her responsibility.

Otherwise, she wouldn’t be called Lady Houtu but rather Lady of Hell.

Lady Houtu is also known as the Empress Earth Qi, formally named ‘Bearer of Heaven’s Mandate, Embodier of Virtue, the Great Empress Earth Qi,’ the fourth among the heavenly emperors. She governs yin and yang, nurtures all things, and hence is known as the ‘Earth Mother.'”

She corresponds to the Jade Emperor, who reigns over the Heavenly Realm. She governs the powers of life and death, certain reproductive rights, the beauty of all things, and the splendor of mountains and rivers, commanding the land and mountains.

Put it this way, in heaven, the Jade Emperor is supreme, on earth, Lady Houtu is supreme.

Get it now?”

Yi Zheng grinned, “Well, if we compare her with you, who’s greater?”

The Queen Mother of the West, proudly tilting her head, said, “I am the foremost among female immortals in the world!”

Yi Zheng grinned, “Indeed, Great Queen Mother is the greatest!”

The Queen Mother of the West then sighed and said, “The problem is, she, like me, is an Innate Demon God born from Pangu’s flesh, so, in actuality, she is a goddess…”

Yi Zheng: “…”

The Queen Mother of the West said, “In any case, she’s in charge of all the mountains and rivers under heaven, and she decides their distribution. The land on Earth, the Mountain Gods, City Gods, and others must all get her approval before Heavenly Court can officially recognize them.

She owns the rights to the mountains and rivers, so naturally, she gives whichever mountain to whoever she wants.

This Kunlun was given to me, but only the West Kunlun part.

Although West Kunlun is not as pretty as my Golden Mountain, its value is indeed many times greater than that of the Golden Mountain. Given this great gift, naturally, I could not pursue anything further.

But still…

I do miss my Golden Mountain…”

The Queen Mother of the West touched the jade pendant hanging around her neck, muttering pitifully.

Seeing the young girl’s homesick expression, Yi Zheng couldn’t help but want to pat her head, but he ultimately restrained himself.

No matter how young she looked, she was still one of the strongest beings between heaven and earth. If she got angry, Yi Zheng wouldn’t be able to withstand it.

Yi Zheng said, “Then… can’t the Golden Mountain be salvaged?”

The Queen Mother of the West shook her head: “It can’t be salvaged anymore; it has been shredded by the river.”

Yi Zheng sighed with pity…

Golden Mountain and Jade Tree together, what a sight that would be?

If he could take one and bring it back to Earth, probably the whole world would cry with envy, right?

The Queen Mother of the West waved her hand and said, “Enough, no more talk. Go do what you need to do. I’m going to sleep a bit more… and think about what elixir to craft next.”

Watching the Queen Mother of the West close her eyes and lie down on the Alchemy Furnace to sleep, Yi Zheng was speechless, thinking to himself: “This girl is truly wild, not a trace of ladylike demeanor in her mind.”

Upon exiting the cave, Yi Zheng saw Ying Zhao lurking nearby.

Ying Zhao had been waiting outside all along. Seeing Yi Zheng come out, he immediately rushed over, grabbed Yi Zheng, and ran all the way to the base of the mountain before excitedly asking, “Brother Rabbit, how did it go?”

Beside him, Brother Kaiming looked over, but his expression was somewhat indifferent. After all, Yi Zheng had only promised to take Ying Zhao, not him.

If things went well, Ying Zhao was happy, he was sour.

If things didn’t go well, it seemed to have nothing to do with him, but his big eyes still read, “It didn’t work out, it didn’t work out!”

A look wishing for everyone to fail together.

Yi Zheng didn’t pay him any mind and chuckled, “When this Sect Master makes a move, isn’t it just a matter of course? Don’t worry, this year’s Pan Peach Festival will surely have a place for Brother Ying Zhao!”

Upon hearing this, Ying Zhao burst into joy: “Hahaha… Brother Rabbit is formidable! Brother Rabbit,” he said, “nothing more to say, whether it’s Wenqu Star or Wenchang Star, those Star Lords, they must come whether they like it or not! In any case, just you wait!”

Yi Zheng, thinking of this guy’s way of doing things, quickly said, “You’d better not kidnap them! Although we have the backing of the Queen Mother of the West, Heavenly Court might still be troublesome, right?”

Ying Zhao rolled his eyes at Yi Zheng: “Brother Rabbit, what are you thinking?

Although those two Star Lords are not as strong as me, they are in Heavenly Court’s territory, it wouldn’t be easy for me to kidnap them.

Moreover, kidnap a righteous god of Heavenly Court?

Am I crazy?

Nowadays, Heavenly Court, under the command of Daoist Ancestor Hongjun, governs the three realms and six paths, along with the myriad worlds.

With just one order, even if the Queen Mother of the West doesn’t want to bother, she’d still have to grunt in response.

If I kidnapped them, my head would probably be on the Demon Execution Platform by tomorrow.”

Yi Zheng exclaimed, “Is Heavenly Court that fierce?”

Brother Kaiming couldn’t help but say, “It’s not about fierceness, but being the legitimate power of the three realms. Some things are more about the principle than the actual strength. Of course, they are indeed formidable. Apart from the unfathomable Jade Emperor, there are three Great Emperors, and the five elders below are also a terrifying presence…

In short, though the three realms are vast, not many can contend with Heavenly Court.

Of course, they wouldn’t dare to challenge the Queen Mother of the West.

After all, the Queen Mother of the West represents the Innate Demon Gods, old folks from the Primordial faction.

Aside from powerful beings like Hebo, East King, and Kunlun Divine Girl by her side, there are even more fearsome beings like the Candle Dragon.

He’s someone even saints have to address respectfully as ‘Old Master’…”

Ying Zhao nodded, “Heavenly Court’s commands indeed can’t reach the upper echelons of the divine realm, but they still hold power at the lower levels. Making a fuss is okay, but kidnapping a righteous god, I can’t do it.”

Yi Zheng curiously asked, “Then how will you get them to come?”

Ying Zhao smiled mysteriously, “Naturally, by heartily persuading them to come, right, Old Third?”

Brother Kaiming also chuckled.

Yi Zheng felt that these two were up to no good, but, that wasn’t important anymore. As long as it wasn’t too excessive, just getting the people to come and teach was enough, whatever else, let it be!

Seeing Brother Kaiming’s slightly forlorn gaze, Yi Zheng said, “Brother Kaiming, I forgot to tell you, you’d better find someone to cover for you soon.”

Brother Kaiming was startled: “What do you mean?”

Yi Zheng grinned and said, “No big deal, just that if you don’t arrange things properly, it might be a problem if you come with us to the Pan Peach Festival in three months. We love having fun, but we can’t neglect the security of Kunlun.”
