Before Gu Yunzhou had time to think it over, he saw the purple-dressed woman Dieyi cast her gaze on the square-faced man and asked, "Brother Xingtian, who do you think came first in this world, men or women?"

As soon as these words were spoken, the whole place erupted in uproar. Everyone was stunned and stunned, and there was a lot of discussion. Looking at the square-faced man again, his expression, which had been relatively normal before, gradually darkened, like the dark sky before a storm, dark and terrifying.

He frowned, his lips pressed together, lost in deep thought. It was obvious that this question was very difficult for him to answer, and it would be difficult for him to give a satisfactory answer immediately.

However, the reactions of the other onlookers were rather strange. At first, they were also surprised, but soon they calmed down and returned to their composure.

Not only that, but these people had smiles on their faces, staring at the square-faced man with interest, as if waiting for a good show to begin. Some of them even made no effort to conceal the playful glint in their eyes; the naked malice was simply overwhelming, undisguised.

Seeing this, Gu Yunzhou couldn't help but frown even more. He knew full well that the question before him was an unsolvable one. It was exactly the same as the "which came first, the chicken or the egg" dilemma he had encountered in his previous life.

And as time passed, he felt that these people looked more and more wrong, as if each of them had some unspeakable secret in their hearts.

"Xing Tian, ​​answer quickly! According to our rules, the time to answer a question cannot exceed one stick of incense. If you fail to answer within that time, it will be considered as automatic giving up!"

The person who spoke this time was a man with a slightly feminine appearance. He was playing with a string of beads in his hand. He seemed nonchalant, but the impatience and urging in his tone were obvious.

Gu Yunzhou was a little confused about the relationship between these people. On the surface, they seemed to be very close to each other, but the way they flattered the powerful and looked down on the weak was so inconsistent. He really didn't know what the big drama was.

Before he could ponder further, he heard the square-faced Xing Tian respond gloomily, "In my opinion, the answer should be that men and women will appear in the world at the same time. When Hou Tu Niangniang created humans, she created men and women together, so there is no such thing as a first or last appearance!"

I have to say that Xing Tian is quite clever. He actually thought of giving his own answer starting from ancient myths and legends. Such an unconventional move is really eye-opening.

Gu Yunzhou thought to himself, it seems that the myths and legends of the Tianxing Continent are quite similar to those of the Blue Star in his previous life. However, he didn't know whether the answer was considered a pass or a fail, and how the standard for determining the answer was set.

At this moment, a silver bell-like laughter could be heard. It was Die Yi, dressed in purple. She parted her red lips and said in a delicate voice, "Haha, sorry, Brother Xing Tian, ​​your answer is wrong! The correct answer is that women came first. You know, Hou Tu Niangniang, who created mankind, was a woman. Therefore, she is the first woman in the world!"

After saying this, Dieyi smiled gently, her smile as charming as a blooming spring flower, but in her beautiful eyes flashed an undisguised greed. When Xing Tian heard this, his face suddenly changed drastically, and he trembled with anger.

He suddenly stood up from his chair, glaring at Dieyi with wide eyes, and shouted, "You are clearly making excuses and making unreasonable demands! I absolutely will not accept this result!" His voice was so loud that it made the eardrums of those around him buzz. However, facing Xingtian's angry accusations, Dieyi was not surprised at all.

She still had a smile on her face and responded calmly: "If you are not convinced, it doesn't matter. According to our old rules, let heaven and earth make the final judgment!" Before she finished speaking, Dieyi turned her head and nodded slightly to the old man.

The old man slowly raised his left hand, his movements so gentle that it seemed as if he was afraid to disturb the air around him. As he waved his arm slightly, a faint light flashed, and then, out of thin air, a thumb-thick incense stick appeared in his hand!

This incense stick was quite different from what you'd normally see. Rather than the usual pale yellow, it displayed an extremely rich, almost blackish dark green. The green was deep and rich, like the water in a deep pool, evoking a sense of wonder at first glance.

Seeing the old man take out such a strange incense stick, Xing Tian, ​​who was about to retort, suddenly became quiet. At this moment, his face was full of anticipation, and his eyes were fixed on the old man, watching him light the incense stick with great respect.

After the old man skillfully lit the incense stick, he shook his wrist lightly, and the incense stick seemed to have life and floated up on its own.

Even more surprising is that, although the incense stick itself is dark green, when it burns, it emits a faint red mist. This red mist rises like smoke, adding a touch of mystery to the whole scene.

Gu Yunzhou, standing nearby, saw this and thought to himself, "Not good!" He subconsciously mobilized his inner spiritual energy and quickly sealed his mouth and nose to prevent himself from inhaling the strange aroma.

He was a sixth-rank scholar, and while he could temporarily replace oral and nasal breathing with internal breathing, this method couldn't last long, lasting only two hours at most. However, judging by the current situation, it should still be enough to cope with the current situation.

Dieyi's eyes instantly caught sight of the red smoke, and a flicker of barely concealed enthusiasm and greed crossed her delicate features. However, with immense willpower, she forcibly suppressed the throbbing surge of emotion within her. After taking a deep breath, she walked with resolute steps toward the source of the rising smoke. Without hesitation, she repeated the conversation she had just had with Xingtian, her voice clear and resonant, as if piercing this mysterious space.

Gu Yunzhou, standing nearby, stared intently at everything unfolding before his eyes. The red smoke, as if alive, trembled slightly before slowly condensing into shape. As the smoke continued to transform, it finally revealed a few striking characters: "Dieyi wins!"
