Chapter 222 The Request for a Heavenly Marriage! The Emperor, after careful consideration, grants it
"A matter of great importance concerning the future destiny of the demon race?"
Upon hearing this, Nuwa raised her eyebrows slightly, her doubts growing stronger.
It should be noted that although she was a saint born from the demon race.
However, they resided in the heavens and did not directly interfere in the affairs of the demon race.
Right now, Di Jun and Fu Xi have come to her personally, asking for her help, saying that this matter concerns the future fortune of the demon race.
Nuwa suspected that what the two were asking for was extraordinary.
After a brief silence, Nuwa inquired:
"What exactly happened?"
"My elder brother and the Demon Emperor actually came to find me in person."
Fuxi didn't speak, but instead glanced at Dijun who was standing beside him.
After all, it would be best if Emperor Jun himself brought up the matter of this celestial marriage.
Receiving Fuxi's gaze, Dijun took a deep breath and, without hiding anything, said directly:
"Report back to the sage."
"The legendary Emperor Xi deduced that in this primordial world, there were three marriages between Heaven, Earth, and Man."
"If one can complete these three marriages, one will receive blessings from Heaven and be granted merit."
"I have come here to ask the Sage to act as my matchmaker."
Upon hearing Di Jun's words, the Sage Nuwa was slightly taken aback.
But she quickly returned to normal.
Just now she was wondering what a big deal it was that had brought both Dijun and her elder brother here.
Unexpectedly, it was all just to get her to act as a matchmaker.
After thinking for a moment, Nuwa smiled faintly and nodded in agreement.
"Can."
For Nuwa, this was not a big deal.
Besides, she was also a little curious.
Given Di Jun's status as the Heavenly Emperor of the Demon Clan, few beings should object to his desire to unite with another.
Upon thinking of this, Nuwa asked another question:
"Whom does the Demon Emperor wish to welcome?"
Upon hearing this, Di Jun replied directly:
"I wish to marry Xihe, the fairy of the moon, and complete the celestial marriage ceremony with her."
"To rectify Yin and Yang, and stabilize the celestial order."
"I implore Your Majesty, for the sake of the demon race's destiny, to act as matchmaker and bring this marriage to fruition!"
As soon as Di Jun spoke, the Sage Nuwa was startled.
"The Moon? Xihe?"
If this had happened before, Nuwa would not have been so surprised.
In her eyes, Xihe and Changxi of the moon were nothing more than ordinary goddesses.
However, the Three Pure Ones had previously moved their teachings to Penglai Immortal Island and had invited many powerful beings from the primordial world to attend the sermon conference.
Nuwa was also present at the time.
She saw with her own eyes that Xihe and Changxi were also invited to listen to the sermon, and that Niu Ben personally went to greet them.
In addition, the seating arrangement for Xihe and Changxi was also at the very front and in the core position.
Startled, the sage Nuwa regained her senses and looked at Di Jun with a solemn expression:
"Demon Emperor".
"The relationship between the goddess Xihe and the chief disciple of the Three Pure Ones seems quite good, doesn't it?"
"I'm afraid this matter..."
Nuwa stopped abruptly at this point.
If it were just any ordinary goddess, she wouldn't have thought much of it.
But this matter concerns Niu Ben, the chief disciple of the Three Pure Ones.
It is worth noting that Nuwa and Niu Ben had a connection long ago.
At that time, Niu Ben led the Six-Eared Macaque to climb Mount Buzhou. Nuwa had not yet become a saint. While wandering in the mortal world, she felt guided by the Heavenly Dao and also went to Mount Buzhou.
When the two met, Niu Ben was about to collect the Three Lights Divine Water.
When Nuwa saw the Three Lights Divine Water, she immediately realized that it was this very thing that had attracted her.
So they made a request to exchange with Niu Ben.
Unexpectedly, Niu Ben did not choose to exchange treasures with her, but instead gave her the Three Lights Divine Water.
In addition, during the subsequent climb, Niu Ben obtained the innate gourd vine and gave a section of it to Nuwa.
Ultimately, Nuwa used the Three Lights Divine Water and the vine in the process of creating humans.
It is precisely because of this cause and effect.
After Nuwa attained sainthood, a portion of the merit she received from creating humans was given to Niu Ben.
Now, Emperor Jun wants to marry Xi He, the fairy of the Taiyin star, in order to facilitate a heavenly marriage, and wants her to act as matchmaker.
With Nuwa's saintly nature, she naturally saw through it.
It must be that Xihe was unwilling to marry Dijun.
Otherwise, Di Jun wouldn't have come to Nuwa Palace to ask for her help.
If it weren't for Niu Ben's connection, Nuwa wouldn't have had any concerns.
But during the previous sermon, she had already noticed that the relationship between Niu Ben and Xi He was extraordinary.
Seeing Nuwa hesitate, Dijun quickly pursed his lips and said:
"Rest assured, Your Majesty!"
"Xihe and Niuben were just ordinary friends."
Nuwa did not believe what Di Jun said.
At that sermon conference, everyone could see that Niu Ben had a close relationship with the two fairies of the Taiyin Star.
Dijun claims they are just ordinary friends, but she can't believe him.
Seeing that Nuwa remained unmoved, Dijun became anxious.
He was determined to have this celestial marriage with Xihe.
After all, with the help of this heavenly marriage, he might be able to greatly increase his cultivation level.
Emperor Jun was not about to miss such a great opportunity.
After a slight pause, Di Jun quickly looked at Fu Xi beside him and kept giving him meaningful glances.
The reason I invited Fuxi along to the Nuwa Palace was that I thought it would be easier to talk to her because of the brother-sister relationship between Fuxi and Nuwa.
Moreover, the concept of the three marriages of Heaven, Earth, and Man was also deduced by Fuxi.
Receiving Di Jun's gaze, Fuxi naturally understood, turned his gaze to Nuwa, and continued speaking:
"saint."
"Xihe is the essence of the moon, and Your Majesty is the master of the sun."
"The two originate from the same source, and are the two poles of Yin and Yang destined by the Way of Heaven."
"The union of these two is in accordance with the true meaning of a celestial marriage; it is truly a match made in heaven, and will surely attract the merits of the heavens, bringing blessings to the demon race!"
At this point, Fuxi paused briefly, then added:
"If a sage is willing to act as matchmaker and facilitate this marriage, the merit of this heavenly union will naturally be shared."
After hearing Fuxi's words, Nuwa frowned slightly, looking thoughtful.
Although he knew very well that Fuxi was speaking up for Dijun, he was still his elder brother.
Moreover, what he said is not without reason.
"The power of merit..."
Nuwa murmured to herself.
As a sage, one naturally knows the benefits of merit.
This power of merit is of paramount importance, whether used to enhance cultivation, refine magical treasures, or resist calamities.
After a moment of contemplation, Nuwa came to her senses, a resolute glint in her eyes.
"Fine!"
"I agree to this!"
In Nuwa's view, Niuben and Xihe seemed to have an extraordinary relationship, but there was no word that they were Daoist couples.
Besides, if this matter could be brought to fruition, the merits of that day's marriage would indeed be very tempting.
In addition, his own elder brother Fuxi spoke up for him.
That is why Nuwa agreed to help.
"Thank you, Your Majesty!"
Upon seeing that Nuwa had agreed, Dijun was overjoyed and immediately bowed in gratitude.
"You two should go back first!"
"Once it is done, I will send someone to inform you."
Upon hearing this, Di Jun and Fu Xi did not linger and immediately got up and left.
