I Come to Teach You Cultivation

Chapter 487 - 16: Moon Fall Incident, Rewritten Historian

Just as the Great Golden Crow was guessing and contemplating Chang Xi’s thoughts.

In the moonlight above the full moon, the fifteen moon phases flashed and vanished in the Moon Palace.

Those moon phases are not in the present, nor in the past, but in the distant future ten thousand years after the death of Celestial Emperor Hao.

A time span of ten thousand years is an extremely long period, even for the ageless and immortal Great Celestial Gods.

Thus, even the ruler of the previous era—Chang Xi—was exceptionally cautious when intervening across time into the future of ten thousand years later.

"Mother?"

When the Emperor’s Liquid appeared in the era where Li Boyang resided, with no one stopping the Moon God from bestowing mercy upon all beings.

A somewhat bewildered voice suddenly reached Chang Xi’s ears, causing the always indifferent her to burst into tears of excitement.

"Heng?"

Suddenly turning her head to look behind, Chang Xi’s gaze fell upon those twelve crystal coffins.

In this cold and lonely Guanghan Palace, only those twelve crystal coffins were unusually conspicuous.

As one of the crystal coffins slowly opened, a girl in plain white lavish attire sat up from within.

"Mother? Why are you crying?"

Looking at Chang Xi who suddenly came over to hug her, the girl hadn’t yet recovered from the long slumber.

But soon, the girl noticed something wrong with Chang Xi.

Despite being an ancient Moon God, Chang Xi’s Qi now appeared weaker than ordinary Gods.

If not in this Moon Palace, it seemed Chang Xi would have already fallen into a deep sleep.

Upon thinking the word "deep sleep," the bewilderment in the girl’s eyes vanished, replaced by a look of helplessness and astonishment.

"Huh? Wasn’t I supposed to be dead?"

In the girl’s memory, she and her eleven sisters should have died simultaneously.

Her last memories lingered on Emperor Hao’s furious face and Chang Xi’s terrified expression.

"Wait, Chang, Yuan, Yi, and Su..."

Suddenly breaking free from those memories, the girl instinctively glanced around.

Then she saw the eleven crystal coffins beside her and instantly understood her current situation.

"Mother, I am back."

Gently embracing the still-crying Chang Xi.

The girl... or rather Heng’e, exhibited a surprisingly mature demeanor.

After all, Heng’e is the eldest of the twelve months, the incarnation of the full moon that once illuminated the lunar sky.

Her ability, experience, and even age far surpass her outward appearance in composure.

"Mother, can you tell me what happened afterward?"

After completely comforting Chang Xi, Heng’e began to inquire about the events during her years of death.

...........................

During the peak of Celestial Emperor Hao’s reign.

The ten days and twelve moons alternately oversaw the rise and fall of the sun and moon, regarded as the most legitimate heirs of Emperor Hao.

However, it is precisely because of this identity that the ten days and twelve moons had long been under the scrutiny of all Gods, bearing responsibilities unimaginable to ordinary beings.

Perhaps because of such family culture, or perhaps due to their nature...

The Great Golden Crow among the ten days and Heng’e among the twelve moons chose to bear the external covets alone, protecting their brothers and sisters well.

This resulted in the remaining nine days and eleven moons not fully maturing in their minds.

Even among long-lived Gods, such a lengthy childhood is beyond imagination.

Thus, when a conspiracy targeting the twelve moons occurred.

Only Heng’e was aware enough to remain calm.

But alas, even with Heng’e’s calmness, all she could do was watch her sisters die tragically one after another.

When "Moon Fall" occurred, and Emperor Hao and Chang Xi arrived at the scene successively, it was already too late.

Subsequently, Emperor Hao erupted in fury, sealing the truth of Moon Fall and ordered the ten days to scorch the land as a follow-up.

Yet, to Chang Xi, this all seemed more like covering up the truth and silencing witnesses.

Celestial Emperor Hao evidently guessed who the true mastermind behind "Moon Fall" was.

But for various reasons, He decided to obscure it all.

Chang Xi naturally disagreed with this approach and subsequently broke away from him.

"So, all of this is related to Lingxi?"

Lingxi is the Morning Star Goddess, Gou Xing’s mother, and Emperor Hao’s most beloved concubine.

From Lingxi’s standpoint, obliterating the twelve moons for her daughter’s ascension is completely understandable.

Similarly, given Emperor Hao’s favor for Lingxi, burying the truth was also naturally expected.

However, precisely because this truth is too predictable.

Heng’e, instead, doesn’t believe that the fragile Goddess was the mastermind behind all this.

"So how did you resurrect me?"

"And your current state... is this the cost of resurrecting me?"

Exhibiting demeanor far more like a deity governing sun and moon than Chang Xi, Heng’e softly inquired.

"Do you remember the ’Lord of Heavenly Dao’ who traversed the river of time?"

Facing Heng’e’s inquiry, finally recovering from the grief of losing her daughter, Chang Xi took the initiative to explain.

"He jumped out from the river of time with the Divine Artifact called ’Creation Jade Disc’, centering on the time point he occupied, unifying the past and gazing into the future."

"From that moment on, whether in the past, present, or future, any being capable of observing the river of time can see and hear His discourse of Dao."

"Though I don’t possess the Divine Artifact of ’Creation Jade Disc’ capable of traversing the river of time."

"But the moon has been present since ancient times and will continue to exist even in distant future timelines."

"So I chose the moon as the cornerstone, mimicking that Tao Ancestor’s ’witnessing Dao’ process, reshaping the anchor points of the past, present, and future in all timelines."

Generally, the Great Celestial God’s witnessing Dao is to imprint their image in the past and future, thereby achieving eternal existence.

However, what Chang Xi did was not for her own immortality but to change the outcome of her daughter’s death.

For this, lacking overwhelming strength, Chang Xi even abandoned the authority of the Moon God.

She made it so that like the [Creation Jade Disc], though present in every era and timeline, it did not necessitate that the Moon God of those times must be herself.

"Forcibly altering past history?"

Blinking blankly, Heng’e wondered if she could live till the future where the Tao Ancestor resides.

But the past she is currently in has indeed been altered.

She became the only Moon God surviving from that "Moon Fall" event.

"Mother, don’t worry, I will surely resurrect my sisters."

Her gaze descending from the Moon Palace to the earth, a cold gleam flashed in Heng’e’s eyes.

"And those hiding behind the scenes, I will certainly make them pay."

"If Father continues to persist, then just as there was ’Moon Fall,’ ’Sun Fall’ would not be impossible."
