Chapter 236: #236 - Chapter 236: Wilderness

Before Houtu could react, Gu Changsheng asked, "Is your world called Honghuang?"

"Honghuang?"

Houtu was stunned, then shook her head and said, "Although the name is similar, the world we come from is not called Honghuang, but Manhuang."

"Manhuang?" Gu Changsheng raised his eyebrows and continued to ask, "Is there a Hongjun? Are there the Three Pure Ones?"

"..."

Houtu looked at Gu Changsheng with a puzzled expression. She was a little speechless, but still asked, "Who are you talking about?"

"Then what is there?" Gu Changsheng said.

"There is..."

"Forget it, I'll find it myself. Please bear with it, it will be a little uncomfortable."

Just as Houtu was about to speak, Gu Changsheng put a hand on her forehead.

"What do you want to do?" Houtu was shocked and wanted to retreat, but it was too late. A warm touch came from her forehead. Houtu was stunned at first, and then she felt dizzy. This feeling disappeared in a moment.

At this time, Gu Changsheng also took his hand away from Houtu's forehead, with a look of sudden realization on his face.

"I didn't expect you to be single until now. Then my 500,000 years is nothing."

Gu Changsheng looked at Houtu with a rather smug expression.

"Your Excellency... the place you pay attention to is really... unique!"

Even though Houtu had lived for countless years, she didn't know how to describe Gu Changsheng at this time.

In my memory, there are not only the highest-level cultivation methods of our world, but also the secrets of our ancient god race. You are actually concerned about whether I am single?

"But being single is good, it won't spoil children. In this regard, you are very similar to Su Wanqing." Gu Changsheng ignored Houtu's expression and said to himself.

Of course, it was impossible for him to only understand Houtu's life. Gu Changsheng had a clear understanding of the Manhuang world that Houtu mentioned.

The full name of the Manhuang world is the Manhuang Territory. It is a world much more terrifying than the peak period of the Red Dust World, because there are only two worlds in the chaos where the Manhuang world is located. In addition to the Manhuang Territory, there is also the Central Divine Realm that confronts it.

Houtu and her other brothers and sisters are innate gods of the Manhuang Realm, born at the Breaking Dao level, comparable to the Ancestral Dragon and other Chaos Gods and Demons in the chaos world where Gu Changsheng is located. The Manhuang Realm is jointly dominated by three forces, including the ancient god race led by Houtu and other twelve ancestral gods, as well as the Heavenly Demon Race and the Heavenly Human Race.

The three forces are in a tripartite situation. Everyone wants to unify the Manhuang Territory, but under mutual fear, they have spent countless years in peace. But at some point, the Central Divine Realm of another world suddenly launched a large-scale attack on the Manhuang Territory. The ancient god race, the Heavenly Demon Race, and the Heavenly Human Race naturally joined forces to fight back, but unfortunately, they were defeated and collapsed, because someone in the Central Divine Realm actually broke through to a realm above the Breaking Dao.

In that battle, the Manhuang Territory suffered heavy casualties. The various ancestors of the Heavenly Demon Race and the Heavenly Human Race either died or fled, and the leader of the twelve ancestral gods of the ancient god race, Dijiang, tried his best to open the chaos barrier for the ancient god race, allowing the other ancestral gods to take the ancient god race to escape to other chaos worlds. By chance, they obtained that coffin in the chaos mezzanine, and their ancient god race also wandered into the myriad worlds.

However, they were seriously injured by the existence above the Breaking Dao in the Central Divine Realm when they escaped. After arriving in the myriad worlds, it didn't take long before they transformed into Dao and left. Only a trace of Houtu's consciousness was lucky enough to be connected with that coffin and maintained until now.

The robot outside the secret realm was encountered by them after they came to the myriad worlds. They found it very novel, so they studied it. But obviously, it was just a study. There is no trace of technology in the ancient god race's inheritance land.

Although the Manhuang Territory does not have Hongjun or the Three Pure Ones, there are still some familiar mythical beasts and monsters.

For example, the leader of the ancestors of the Heavenly Demon Race is called Donghuang Tian and Dijun Tian. At first glance, they are Donghuang Taiyi and Dijun in the myths he is familiar with. Not to mention the Heavenly Human Race, there are also the Nine Great Human Ancestors and the Three Emperors and Five Emperors, among which they can all match the names in the myths and legends he is familiar with.

But in the end, this is just a similarity, and it has nothing to do with the Honghuang he knows.

Gu Changsheng didn't care about this. Even if there really was a Honghuang world, it was only because of the memory of his previous life that he was slightly interested. He only had more than 20 years of memory in his previous life, but in this life, he has lived for more than one million years.

After thoroughly understanding Houtu's origin, Gu Changsheng asked, "How is your consideration?"

"What?" Houtu asked in confusion.

"To be a protector for my disciple Honghong. Didn't I tell you just now? This is my condition," Gu Changsheng said.

"You... have you told me just now?" Houtu was dumbfounded. The person in front of her was very strong, so strong that it had exceeded her understanding, but it seemed that there was something different. How could a strong person pay attention to whether others are single or not? Besides, you really didn't tell me just now.

"Didn't I? Then I'll say it now. I can help you get rid of the shackles of that coffin and let you be reborn, but you have to be the protector of my disciple."

Gu Changsheng said solemnly. She had been looking for a protector for Honghong from the beginning, but Su Wanqing's strength was obviously not enough now. Honghong was growing too fast, and the strength of the protector always had to be stronger than the person being protected. Obviously, Su Wanqing had been eliminated now.

But the idea of finding a protector for Honghong had never been dismissed by Gu Changsheng. When he met the big black robot before, he asked the Golden Ancient Emperor to keep it, also thinking about going back to study it and use it as a toy for Honghong to defend herself, but now that there is a ready-made protector, Gu Changsheng felt that it was not necessary to be so troublesome.

"Your Excellency's disciple, judging from the name, should be a girl?" Houtu did not immediately agree, but asked about Honghong's gender.

"Of course, do you mind? If you mind, then I can't do anything about it. Although I also have a male disciple, but forget about that rebellious disciple. If I give him a protector, he will probably come back one day and stab me with a sword. What a rebellious disciple!"

At the end, Gu Changsheng cursed, which made Houtu think that Gu Changsheng had some deep hatred with the disciple he mentioned.

"If Your Excellency can really let me get out of here and live normally in the world, then... I agree."

Houtu said, she had been here for countless years, and the ancient years were just a fraction. Staying here, although it will not be completely annihilated, but to be honest, she has had enough of the days of never seeing the light of day. Agreeing to the request of the person in front of her, even if it is worse, can it be worse than spending years here?

Moreover, this person doesn't even like her looks. Presumably, being by his side should be a very good thing, right?
