91: Trembling memorial tablet

“Younger Sister Houtu, Younger Sister Xuanming, and all my younger brothers, you are all mistaken if you think that way.

Are we deceiving Father God? we are simply speaking the truth, alright?

we fifteen siblings lost Father God since birth and were orphans from a young age. Was it easy for us?

Since we finally get to meet will of the father god, shouldn't we cry and complain a little, expressing our yearning for Father God?

Is it wrong to express the hardships we descendants of the father god have faced while complaining?”

“Huh? Fifteen siblings? Orphans?”

The Twelve Ancestral Witches and The Two Qings were all filled with questions upon hearing Taiqing's words.

They felt that something was wrong, but couldn't quite put their finger on it.

“What Elder Brother Taiqing said seems reasonable. Meeting Father God, and thinking that Father God created the Primordial Era and all things...

...yet there isn't even a single being to offer sacrifices to him, it truly makes Father God feel disheartened.

we, as descendants of the father god, have never seen Father God since our birth.

Thinking of all this, I do feel a little sad, and somewhat want to cry and complain to Father God.”

Houtu spoke emotionally, her eyes involuntarily turning red, and tears were visibly welling up.

It must be said that Houtu's emotional influence was extremely potent.

Seeing Houtu like this, and being influenced by her emotions...

The other Ancestral Witches, except for Zhu Rong and Gonggong the Sixth Brother, including Shangqing Lingbao, couldn't help but feel depressed.

A sorrowful atmosphere brewed among them.

“Aiya~, exactly, exactly! She truly is my dearest Younger Sister Houtu; I didn't dote on her in vain!

I'll give this assist full marks, alright?

That's how it is. When we meet Father God later, we will cry and complain just like this.

Hahaha, Father God's paternal love will definitely burst forth!

It's settled, it's settled. This round is secure.

I didn't expect Younger Sister Houtu to be the most suitable one to teach that!

In the future, I must remember Younger Sister Houtu whenever there's something good.

As for the others, especially Younger Brother Yuqing Yuanshi, Younger Brother Zhu Rong, and Gonggong the Sixth Brother...

...they truly give This elder brother no peace of mind.”

Seeing Houtu's performance, Taiqing was overjoyed internally and almost couldn't help but snort like a pig.

Houtu truly lived up to her reputation as the one with the strongest Heart of Great Compassion, willing to transform herself into Reincarnation for the all sentient beings of the primordial era.

She immediately got into the swing of things.

Taiqing didn't even need to guide her much.

“Younger Sister Houtu, when we offer sacrifices to Father God, you and This elder brother will be at the very front.

Younger Sister Xuanming will be the first in the second row, and the rest of the brothers will line up behind her.

Yuqing Yuanshi, Zhu Rong, Gonggong the Sixth Brother, the three of you will stand at the very back.”

With Houtu setting the example, this matter became much easier.

Taiqing immediately decided on the positions for the sacrifice.

“Elder Brother, why? I refuse! I want to stand in the front. I want to be closest to Father God. I don't want to stand at the very back.”

Yuqing Yuanshi was the first to disagree.

Elder Brother was discriminating! He was Father God's most beloved child, and he should stand at the very front.

Among his accompanying Spirit Treasures was the heavens auspicious cloud, a rare Primordial exotic treasure.

The heavens auspicious cloud was formed from a breath of Righteous Qi from Pangu Father God's chest.

This proved that he, Yuqing Yuanshi, was Father God's most beloved child.

Elder Brother was too unfair.

Zhu Rong and Gonggong the Sixth Brother showed the exact same reaction as Yuqing Yuanshi.

They all believed they were Pangu Father God's most beloved children and should be closest to Father God.

“You three, This elder brother will tell you why you are placed last, so you can be fully convinced.”

Taiqing would not let these three disrupt his plan.

That was bright, shining silver—no, what the hell is silver?—it was Spirit Treasures bestowed by will of the father god!

“Elder Brother, I'd like to see what kind of excuse you can come up with.

If you can't convince me, I will stand at the very front, closest to Father God.”

“we are the same.”

“Me too.”

“Huh? Strange, who snuck in? Never mind.

This elder brother will now convince you completely.

Is Younger Sister Houtu your most beloved younger sister? Is she your youngest younger sister?”

“Elder Brother, don't change the subject. Of course, Younger Sister Houtu is our most beloved younger sister, and of course, she is our youngest younger sister.

So what?”

Yuqing Yuanshi looked at Taiqing, asking in confusion.

“Me too, answer and question.”

“Who was that? A strange fellow snuck in.

Since Younger Sister Houtu is the youngest younger sister, shouldn't all of you defer to her?”

Taiqing looked suspiciously at his younger brothers and sisters, feeling that a certain phrase sounded very familiar.

“It's certainly indisputable that older brothers should defer to younger sisters, but Elder Brother...”

Before Yuqing Yuanshi could finish speaking, Taiqing interrupted him.

“Good. Since Younger Brother Yuanshi, Younger Brother Zhu Rong, and Gonggong the Sixth Brother all agree that older brothers should defer to younger sisters...

...then what's wrong with you deferring to Younger Sister Houtu?

What's wrong with Younger Sister Houtu standing in the front? Can't you just defer to Younger Sister Houtu??

You keep saying you defer to your younger sister, yet you still want to fight Younger Sister Houtu for a position.

Is this what you mean by deferring to your younger sister?”

Taiqing rapidly dumped the blame onto the three younger brothers, leaving Yuqing Yuanshi, Zhu Rong, and Gonggong the Sixth Brother completely confused.

“No, Elder Brother, you, I...”

Yuqing Yuanshi felt very wrong, ten out of ten wrong.

But he couldn't articulate what was wrong. How did it end up looking like it was his fault?

“What 'you'? What 'I'? Do you want This elder brother to stand at the very back?”

“No, Elder Brother, I didn't! You're talking nonsense.”

Yuqing Yuanshi felt incredibly wronged. When had he ever had such a thought?

Yuqing Yuanshi had fallen into the Self-proving Trap.

“Wait a minute, why am I the only one getting hurt the entire time?

Where are Zhu Rong and Gonggong the Sixth Brother? Why haven't they spoken up at all?”

Only now did Yuqing Yuanshi realize that he was the only one suffering the whole time, while Zhu Rong and Gonggong the Sixth Brother were hiding behind him.

He finally understood why Gonggong was The Sixth Brother.

So it wasn't just his ranking; his actions also had the style of The Sixth Brother?

“That's good then. Since none of you have any objections, let's settle it this way.”

Taiqing was secretly delighted. As expected of Younger Brother Yuqing Yuanshi, he even proactively stepped forward to help This elder brother out of a jam at this time.

He would have to give Younger Brother Yuqing Yuanshi a little reward later.

Yuqing Yuanshi expressed that he truly only wanted to jump out and refute the claims.

He had no intention of helping his Elder Brother out of trouble.

He just didn't expect Zhu Rong and Gonggong the Sixth Brother to retreat so quickly.

But speaking of rewards, Yuqing Yuanshi was suddenly wide awake.

That was simply what he, as a younger brother, ought to do.

“we shall naturally comply with Elder Brother's arrangements.”

Seeing that Yuqing Yuanshi was rendered speechless, the other Ancestral Witches and Shangqing naturally had no objections.

After all, they weren't standing at the back with Yuqing Yuanshi, Zhu Rong, and Gonggong the Sixth Brother.

With Houtu as the main source of emotional output, Taiqing established his crying and complaining team, centered around Houtu and including Xuanming.

With such a powerful lineup, even the pangu father gods tablet that Taiqing had previously erected on the Buzhou Mountain Peak began to tremble.

Tens of thousands of years passed in the blink of an eye. During these tens of thousands of years, the fifteen siblings, the Three Pure Ones and Twelve Ancestral Witches, climbed toward the Buzhou Mountain Peak.
