Guangchengzi had wanted to speak up in opposition.
Why invite Xuan Wu?
If he came and directly dealt with Chi You, wouldn't he also get a share of the Human Emperor's merit this time?
It would be better for me to return and ask Master for help. If I could borrow a powerful magical treasure from Master, would I still need to fear Chi You?
But the moment that thought arose in his mind,
Guangchengzi immediately gave up on it!
"Forget it..."
"My actions this time have already displeased Master. If I go back and ask for help now, Master will surely reprimand me..."
Thus, he said nothing and silently watched Xuanyuan begin arranging an altar, preparing to seek aid from the Queen Mother of the West in the Heavenly Court!
Far away atop Kunlun Mountain, Yuanshi Tianzun suddenly felt a tremor in his heart, as though he had narrowly escaped another calamity... He was immediately baffled.
"What's going on?"
Filled with doubt, Yuanshi immediately connected with the Heavenly Dao and carefully investigated the reason for this sudden premonition.
In the end, he never discovered that it was because of Guangchengzi.
Had Guangchengzi returned to seek help...
Given Yuanshi's temperament, he would certainly have given him a harsh scolding. But after the scolding, he would definitely have lent him something. Could he really stand by and watch his own disciple lose a share of his merit?
But once the magical treasure left the Jade Void Palace,
whether it could return safely to Yuanshi's hands would be another matter entirely. Wu Tian had been keeping a close eye on the Human Clan's situation...
Would he pass up a chance to scheme against Yuanshi?
In other words, without realizing it... Yuanshi had quietly avoided a calamity, at least sparing himself the worry
