There's a Good Show Coming

Dijiang was completely won over by Wu Tian at this moment!

Hongyun really was going to give up his seat...

That grateful look in his eyes, even carrying a trace of guilt toward Wu Tian, was almost exactly as Wu Tian had predicted!

Naturally, Dijiang did not know.

The hint of guilt in Hongyun's eyes came from feeling that by giving his seat to Wu Tian, he was making the Witch Clan bear this Karma...

That was why he looked at him that way!

Because of this, Dijiang became even more confused:

Everything had unfolded just as Wu Tian said.

So why, at the crucial moment, was Wu Tian refusing instead of accepting Hongyun's offered seat?

Earlier, Wu Tian had urgently pushed the Ancestral Witches to set out, and they had encountered that incident before Zixiao Palace. Dijiang had thought that what Wu Tian sought was a seat within Zixiao Palace.

He had been so eager for it before.

Yet now he was pushing the seat away...

Wu Tian, Wu Tian, what exactly are you playing at?

Faced with Dijiang's baffled gaze, Wu Tian smiled lightly and secretly transmitted his voice:

"Brother, don't be anxious!"

"Just wait patiently a little longer..."

Just as Wu Tian had thought earlier.

He truly hoped Hongyun could hold firm against all the pressure and resolutely refuse to give up his seat. If that happened, the great course of the Primordial Wilderness would naturally change, and perhaps there would be one more Saint in Hongyun!

As long as the Heavenly Dao's great course changed.

That would be a good thing for the Witch Clan...

Even if Hongyun ultimately could not withstand the pressure and still wanted to relinquish his seat, Wu Tian could not accept it at this moment.

This represented the Primordial Violet Qi!

If Wu Tian accepted it so directly, then after the third sermon, would Hongyun and Zhenyuanzi come to resent him?

Would they think that he had deliberately exaggerated the danger.

And that was why Hongyun had been frightened into surrendering his seat?

Therefore.

Even if Wu Tian wanted to take this seat, it could not be now. He had to wait until Jieyin and Zhunti arrived, then step forward when Hongyun faced immense pressure!

He would take the seat and bear the pressure.

That way, even if the two later learned what the seat represented, they would have no complaints in their hearts. Even if they did resent someone, it would only be Jieyin and Zhunti...

After all, Wu Tian would be the one stepping forward to help them!

"But..."

"If I take this seat, will Hongjun truly distribute the Primordial Violet Qi according to the seats, just as in the original course of events?"

Doubt arose in Wu Tian's heart.

Earlier, when the Ancestral Witches had been blocked by Zixiao Palace's power outside the palace, Wu Tian had already understood that Hongjun was not quite the Dao Ancestor he had imagined...

The seating order in Zixiao Palace.

Had not been a coincidence formed by the unfolding of heavenly secrets!

It was Hongjun's scheme behind the scenes.

If Wu Tian took Hongyun's seat, he would once again disrupt Hongjun's arrangement for the ownership of the Primordial Violet Qi. Would Hongjun really remain indifferent?

After thinking for a while.

Wu Tian finally smiled freely!

He muttered to himself:

"It doesn't matter..."

"I never intended to refine the Primordial Violet Qi or attain sainthood through Three Corpses Severance anyway. So what if I cannot obtain the Primordial Violet Qi?"

"Instead, I can verify certain things..."

"That alone would be the greatest gain!"

Wu Tian immediately stopped dwelling on it.

After hearing Wu Tian's words, although Dijiang's doubts had not been resolved, he asked no more questions and simply nodded at Wu Tian with complete trust!

He even secretly transmitted his voice to Wu Tian:

"Good!"

"Your brothers and sisters and I all trust you. Whatever you want to do, go ahead. We'll have your back!"

"I want to see..."

"Who else would dare target you!"

After saying that.

He viciously glanced toward the Three Pure Ones and glared at Yuanshi Tianzun!

Pierced by that almost tangible gaze.

Yuanshi Tianzun immediately frowned...

Before he could speak, Taiqing had already transmitted his voice to him:

"The sermon is about to begin!"

"Endure it a little longer... Don't stir up more trouble!"

Yuanshi Tianzun could only endure.

He forced down the anger in his heart!

At this time, the Three Pure Ones were still very united and very low-key. They had taken form at the beginning of creation, yet during the Dragon-Han Tribulation, they had barely appeared...

They remained hidden in Kunlun Mountain to cultivate.

Even after obtaining the Primordial Violet Qi in the future, they waited until they attained sainthood before gradually becoming active in the Primordial Wilderness!

So when it came to being cautious...

The Three Pure Ones were truly the most cautious!

As time passed, figures shot out of Chaos one after another and entered Zixiao Palace, yet the palace did not become crowded.

The space within seemed to expand on its own.

It still felt exceptionally spacious!

Upon entering, everyone's first glance went to the seven people in the front row. The more people stared at them, the greater the pressure became...

Especially for Kunpeng.

He felt as though thorns were pressing against his back!

At that moment, Taiyi suddenly placed a hand on the Chaos Bell and secretly transmitted his voice to Di Jun:

"Brother..."

"Aren't we making a move?"

"There are only seven seats in the first row of Zixiao Palace. I've looked at them—those seven seats are brimming with Dao Resonance. They must hold a tremendous opportunity!"

Wu Tian and the Ancestral Witches had brought their own Prayer Mats.

But compared with the original seven Prayer Mats in Zixiao Palace, the difference was obvious at a glance...

Taiyi was already growing anxious:

"The more people arrive, the harder it will be to make a move!"

Di Jun frowned slightly.

His gaze swept across the people in the front row before he secretly replied:

"It's not that simple!"

"There's no need to mention the Three Pure Ones and the Ancestral Witches. Fuxi and Nüwa are not easy to provoke either. Even Hongyun... the Ancestral Witches will likely protect him..."

Wu Tian, Hongyun, and the others were not speaking now.

But Di Jun had personally witnessed how close the three were earlier. Wu Tian had even openly confronted Yuanshi Tianzun over it, completely unafraid of opposing the Three Pure Ones!

If they truly faced the Twelve Ancestral Witches...

Di Jun was not confident either.

But Taiyi fixed his gaze on Kunpeng and said directly:

"I wasn't talking about them..."

"This Kunpeng is all alone... Let's target him and force him to give up his seat. As long as one of us brothers gets a seat, that will be enough!"

As he spoke, he could not help taking a step forward.

Kunpeng sensed it at that very moment. His hair stood on end as he instantly turned to look at Di Jun and Taiyi, his eyes filled with vigilance.

But Di Jun grabbed him and pulled him back.

"Forget it..."

"The sermon is about to begin. Saint Hongjun may be watching from the shadows. We shouldn't start any conflict at this time!"

"If we miss the sermon because of this..."

"Wouldn't that be sacrificing the greater for the lesser?"

Of the two Golden Crows on the Sun Star, Taiyi was incomparably domineering, while Di Jun was more strategic and possessed stronger leadership. Taiyi had always listened closely to his elder brother Di Jun...

Seeing Di Jun speak this way.

Taiyi hesitated for a moment before finally retreating.

Just as he was feeling unwilling.

Two figures suddenly flew into Zixiao Palace. They were Jieyin and Zhunti from the west!

The moment they entered Zixiao Palace, the two swept their gazes over the scene within. They exchanged a glance, then flew toward the front.

Straight toward Hongyun and Kunpeng.

"Brother!"

"Not good! Those two are about to make a move..."

Anxiousness arose in Taiyi's heart, along with regret. Earlier, when he had wanted to act, Di Jun had stopped him. Now Jieyin and Zhunti would benefit instead.

Di Jun's pupils contracted.

Yet a faint smile appeared on his face!

Jieyin and Zhunti had arrived rather late. They had not seen the harmonious relationship between Wu Tian, Hongyun, and Zhen Yuanzi, nor did they know anything about Wu Tian's direct confrontation with Yuanshi...

He immediately transmitted his voice to Taiyi and laughed softly:

"Don't be anxious!"

"There's a good show coming!"
