Hongjun's frank explanation completely untied the greatest knot in the Three Pure Ones' hearts.

It turned out that this Sage, who was about to merge with the Dao, was not the opponent they had imagined, but rather the "trusted minister entrusted with an orphan" left behind by Father God Pangu. He was one of their own!

For a time, the atmosphere atop Kunlun Mountain Peak became more harmonious than ever before.

Tongtian Jiaozhu no longer shouted about fighting and killing either. He scratched the chin he had just shaved clean and said to Hongjun somewhat awkwardly, "Um... Hongjun, Daoist friend, I was being narrow-minded before. Don't take it to heart."

He had always been straightforward. If he was wrong, he was wrong, and his apologies were just as decisive.

"It is nothing." Hongjun smiled and waved his hand. "The three of you care deeply for your disciple. It is only natural that you would be wary."

He looked at Lin Shen, who was nestled in Tongtian's arms and using the Jade Staff of Creation as a rattle, his eyes full of amusement.

This little fellow was the true key.

As long as they coaxed him properly, wouldn't these three brothers obediently follow his rhythm?

Well, it could not be called his rhythm either. It was Father God's rhythm.

Yuanshi Tianzun also showed a rare hint of gentleness. He cupped his hands toward Hongjun and said, "Daoist friend, you have silently devoted countless epochs to the Primordial World and all living beings. We brothers admire you."

"I merely carry out Father God's wish." Hongjun once again gave the credit to Pangu.

After this exchange, their relationship instantly changed from "potential rivals" to "revolutionary comrades and fellow warriors."

Taiqing stroked his beard and smiled. The great stone in his heart finally fell away.

With this, the Kunlun Mountain lineage and the Orthodox Xuanmen no longer had any fundamental conflict.

Everyone was striving toward the shared goal of "building a better Primordial World."

Their Division of Labor was simply different.

Kunlun Mountain was responsible for nurturing Lin Shen, this "ultimate variable," and followed an elite path.

Hongjun's Xuanmen, meanwhile, was responsible for enlightening all beings, spreading its influence far and wide, and following a mass-oriented path.

The two paths advanced side by side. The future was bright!

"Since we are all family now, why not stay a few more days, Daoist friend? We can discuss the Dao together." Taiqing sincerely extended the invitation.

He truly wanted to exchange their respective insights into the Great Dao with this being who was about to become a Sage.

Especially after they had both been "enlightened" by Lin Shen.

"This humble Daoist had the same thought." Hongjun gladly accepted.

He had come this time to speak openly with the Three Pure Ones and, incidentally, observe Lin Shen, this "little monster," up close.

The chance for a deeper exchange was naturally even better.

Thus, an unusual scene destined to be recorded in the history of the Primordial World appeared atop Kunlun Mountain Peak.

Four Primordial Golden Immortals and one Quasi-Saint—five supreme figures standing at the very peak of the Primordial World—gathered around a drooling three-year-old child and held a "high-level parenting experience exchange" combined with a "Great Dao seminar."

"I believe that at Lin Shen's current stage, he should focus on consolidating his Dao foundation and must not aim too high." Yuanshi Tianzun solemnly laid out his educational philosophy.

"Second Brother, you're at it again!" Tongtian Jiaozhu immediately retorted. "A child's nature is to play! If he meditates and chants scriptures all day, won't he turn into a little old man? I say we should take him traveling around the Primordial World, let him see its magnificent mountains and rivers, and comprehend the Great Dao through play. That is the proper way!"

"Indulging in frivolous things ruins one's ambitions!"

"Teach according to aptitude!"

The two were about to start arguing again.

Nuwa held Lin Shen and spoke softly, "Please do not argue, fellow Daoists. Little Lin Shen is curious about everything in the outside world right now. Taking him out for a walk, letting him look at flowers and grass and meet some new little animals, would indeed be excellent for the growth of his temperament."

Her words seemed to support Tongtian, yet they also affirmed Yuanshi's core emphasis on "growth."

The moment Lin Shen heard that they were going out to play and that there would be little animals to see, he immediately clapped his tiny hands excitedly. "Play! Play! See... animals!"

Tongtian Jiaozhu was instantly delighted and shot Nuwa a look that said, "You really get me."

Yuanshi Tianzun frowned, but seeing how happy his disciple was, he could not bring himself to argue.

Taiqing smiled as he smoothed things over. "Yes, a balance between work and rest. Very good, very good."

Hongjun silently watched it all from the side, nodding from time to time, a thoughtful glint flickering in his eyes.

He realized that the "Dao" of Kunlun Mountain seemed... somewhat different from the "Dao" of his Zixiao Palace.

Zixiao Palace taught rules, order, and the workings of the Heavenly Dao, all with meticulous precision.

But Kunlun Mountain taught... everything for the child.

The child's joys, anger, sorrows, and delights were the highest truths of the Great Dao.

Interesting. Truly interesting, Hongjun thought.

He felt that perhaps he could gain some different insights from this "Dao of parenting."

Just as these five great figures happily—though noisily—discussed Lin Shen's "education policy,"

another powerful aura rapidly approached from outside Kunlun Mountain.

This aura was seventy or eighty percent similar to Nuwa's Dao of Creation, yet it also carried an inscrutable intent of deducing heavenly secrets and seeing into the future.

"Hmm?"

Nuwa, who was feeding Lin Shen fruit, suddenly stirred. She raised her head and looked in the direction of Buzhou Mountain.

"My elder brother has come."

"Fuxi?" The Three Pure Ones were also taken aback.

They naturally knew that Nuwa had an elder brother named Fuxi, one of the Primordial World's greatest masters of deduction and divination.

It was said that he remained in seclusion year-round, merging his primordial spirit with the River Diagram and Luo Script to deduce the future course of the Primordial World, and rarely ever went outside.

Why had he come to Kunlun Mountain today as well?

"He must have sensed that you were here, Daoist friend, and come especially to find you." Taiqing said with a smile.

"Yes." Nuwa nodded, a trace of apology appearing on her face. "I left in a hurry and did not tell my brother. I made him worry."

"It is no matter. Since he has come, invite him in to sit for a while." Taiqing said generously.

The current Kunlun Mountain was already the absolute center of the Primordial World.

A few more top-tier mighty figures would do no harm. On the contrary, it would better display Kunlun Mountain's grandeur.

Very soon, under Daoist Duobao's guidance,

a male immortal wearing an Eight Trigrams Daoist robe, with handsome features and eyes as deep as though they contained the Myriad Stars Array, entered the Three Pure Ones' Daoist grounds.

It was Nuwa's elder brother, Fuxi.

As soon as Fuxi entered, he first saw his younger sister Nuwa, and the worry in his heart eased.

Then his gaze swept over the Three Pure Ones and Hongjun, and his pupils suddenly contracted!

Good heavens!

What kind of divine lineup was this?

The Three Pure Ones! Hongjun Daozu!

Those four were all among the absolute strongest beings in the Primordial World!

Why were they all gathered here?

And judging from their auras...

Fuxi was horrified!

He discovered that the Three Pure Ones' auras had already completely surpassed the limits of his understanding. They carried an intent of primordial unity independent of the Heavenly Dao!

Hongjun's aura had fused with the entire heaven and earth of the Primordial World. It was unfathomably deep, as though he were the incarnation of the Heavenly Dao itself!

Had they... all broken through?

Fuxi felt as though his mind was no longer enough to process this.

What earth-shaking events had occurred in the Primordial World during his years of seclusion?

"Brother." Nuwa rose to her feet and smiled faintly at Fuxi.

"Sister." Fuxi came back to his senses and hurried to Nuwa's side, asking with concern, "Are you all right? I sensed your aura suddenly surge and thought something had happened to you."

"I'm fine, Brother." Nuwa's face carried a glow called "happiness" that even she herself had not noticed. "I merely... encountered some tremendous opportunities."

As she spoke, her gaze unconsciously fell upon Lin Shen, who was being lifted high by Tongtian Jiaozhu and laughing merrily.

Fuxi followed her gaze.

Then he saw the adorably delicate little child, with a tiny ginseng leaf growing from his head.

"This is..."

Fuxi's brow instantly furrowed.

As a great master who deduced heavenly secrets, his perception of karma and fortune was sharper than anyone else's.

At a glance, he saw that this little child was at the core of every event!

He was the source of all the chaos in the heavenly secrets!

Fuxi could not see through him!

Despite possessing the supreme art of deduction, fused with the River Diagram and Luo Script and capable of deducing even a Sage's future, he could not see this child's past or future at all!

It was as though Lin Shen were a "ghost" that did not exist in this time and space, appearing out of thin air!

How was that possible?!

Turbulent waves rose in Fuxi's heart.

Instinctively, he was about to circulate his primordial spirit and activate the River Diagram and Luo Script, forcefully deducing Lin Shen's origins.

However, at the very moment that thought arose,

Lin Shen, who was happily being lifted high by Tongtian Jiaozhu, suddenly stopped laughing.

He turned his little head, his round black eyes looking curiously toward Fuxi.

Then he tilted his head and stretched out his chubby little hand toward Fuxi.

In a babyish voice, he said something that made Fuxi's Dao Heart collapse on the spot.

"Uncle... want... your fortune told?"
