Cihang's Way of Balance

Cihang had already suspected something, and now, seeing Taiqing's attitude, she was certain of her suspicions.

"Was the sage doing this for the sake of humanity?"

Aside from the human race, he had no other connection with Taiqing.

"Fellow Daoist is indeed wise. I was truly acting for the sake of humanity this time."

Fellow Daoist's methods are profound; you actually began your scheme at the very beginning of the human race's establishment, monopolizing one-tenth of the human race's fortune.

It was only after I attained enlightenment that I realized the extraordinary nature of the human race!

I have to admire that!

Taiqing couldn't help but show a look of admiration.

In the Primordial World, there is no absolute good or evil, nor are there irreconcilable feuds.

As long as the benefits are sufficient.

Taiqing did indeed harbor resentment towards Cihang.

Although he didn't know what Cihang's destiny was, he was certain of one thing.

Without Cihang, Nuwa would never have been able to do this.

On the day Nuwa attained enlightenment, Cihang also contributed significantly.

It was only after he attained enlightenment that he discovered that Cihang actually controlled a layer of human destiny.

Moreover, this layer of fortune is incredibly stable; even he and Nuwa cannot forcibly strip it away.

This shows how deeply Cihang was hidden.

It should be noted that he established the Human Teachings and became a saint, thus occupying three layers of human fortune.

It was definitely not a simple coincidence that I encountered Cihang while preaching among humans.

Looking back now, it's clear that the human race's development into what it is today was entirely Cihang's doing.

Even this conflict between him and Nuwa is inextricably linked to Cihang.

After discovering these things, while harboring resentment towards Cihang, Taiqing also greatly admired Cihang's methods.

When he tried to attack Cihang, he discovered that Cihang was no longer the easily bullied cultivator she once was.

For Taiqing, who had already attained enlightenment, Cihang's quasi-saint level cultivation was nothing.

The real problem is that Cihang possesses great fortune and great merit.

He can get rid of Cihang, but he will definitely have to pay a heavy price.

Now that the Six Saints of the Primordial World have attained enlightenment, if his strength is greatly diminished, he will definitely be suppressed by the other sages.

Even Yuanshi and Tongtian wouldn't miss this opportunity to rise above themselves.

No matter how you look at it, it's inappropriate to take action against Cihang.

In addition to her own merits and good fortune, Cihang also has the powerful assistance of Nuwa.

Regardless of personal relationships, if only self-interest were considered, Nuwa would not ignore the plight of Cihang.

His decision to keep Cihang here was not intended to target Cihang.

Not only Taiqing, but also Yuanshi and Tongtian, through Taiqing's analysis, gained a new understanding of Cihang.

Although Yuanshi and Tongtian did not speak, they were observing Cihang closely.

"The saint is overpraising; it's all just a coincidence."

Cihang only had some opportunities before, which allowed him to occupy a portion of the human race's fortune!

Whether Taiqing is praised or criticized, Cihang doesn't care.

"Whether it was a premeditated scheme or a coincidence, it is a fact that you possess one-tenth of the human race's destiny."

This attempt to retain you, fellow Daoist, is to invite you to join the Human Teachings.

If you are willing, I can offer you the position of Vice Leader of the Human Teachings, and share the Human Teachings's fortune with me.

What do you think, fellow Daoist?

Taiqing didn't want to waste any more words and directly promised Cihang great benefits.

He shared the fate of humanity with Nuwa, but because Nuwa possessed the Kongtong Seal, he was still at a disadvantage.

If Cihang could be brought into the Human Teachings, this gap would be narrowed infinitely.

Moreover, what he valued even more was Cihang's foresight and strategic thinking.

Even without Cihang's help, Nuwa was not in such a difficult position to deal with.

In addition, Cihang himself possesses immense merit and fortune, and his joining will only benefit the human race.

As soon as Taiqing finished speaking, both Yuanshi and Tongtian were extremely surprised.

The deputy leader of the Human Teachings, Taiqing, really has his eye on Cihang.

However, Cihang did not feel valued; on the contrary, she deeply felt the depth of Taiqing's schemes.

"Thank you for your favor, Sage, but Cihang is free-spirited and does not wish to be bound by anything."

This time, however, we will have to disappoint the sage's good intentions.

Cihang refused without the slightest hesitation.

Taiqing is indeed good at scheming.

Does a Human Teachings think he can completely enslave him?

Sharing fortune? In other words, his kidney-tonifying fortune is gathered in the Human Teachings, so although he can enjoy the fortune of the Human Teachings, this fortune no longer belongs to him.

Not to mention that he never intended to join the Human Teachings in the first place, Taiqing's scheming only made him keep his distance.

"Fellow Daoist, you look down on the Human Teachings and also on my Taiqing."

"Are you convinced that I am inferior to Nuwa, and are determined to help Nuwa against me?"

Taiqing's voice instantly turned cold, and his imposing aura suddenly pressed down on Cihang.

The Glazed Pure Vase automatically protected its owner, conjuring up a divine crystal light to block out the oppressive force.

"The sage has misunderstood. Cihang had no such intention and was powerless to participate in the struggle between sages."

All I did was for the sake of humanity."

Cihang's voice was neither humble nor arrogant, and she did not yield to Taiqing's pressure.

At the same time, he was making his stance clear: he had no intention of siding with either Nuwa or Taiqing.

Although he was of low strength, he was an independent individual.

"What if I force you, fellow Daoist, to make a choice?"

After hearing Cihang's explanation, Taiqing's oppressive aura eased, but he did not completely give up.

Previously, Taiqing would not have been able to detect the colorless human race, but after establishing the Human Teachings, the human race was no longer a secret in his eyes.

Although Cihang only occupies one-tenth of the human race's fortune, the Five Colors lineage holds an extremely high position within the human race.

It can almost determine the future of humanity.

As the Leader of the Human Sect, he naturally did not want to give up such power.

He is confident that he can suppress Nuwa once again, provided Cihang joins the human race.

"Although Cihang is weak, it is unwilling to compromise."

I also hope that a sage will grant my request.

Otherwise, Cihang wouldn't be sure what choice she would make!

Cihang did not simply compromise; his words also carried a hint of threat.

At this moment, whichever side he joins, he can change the power dynamics of the human race.

He had anticipated this situation, which is why he tried his best to balance the division of power between Taiqing and Nuwa.

Only when both sides are evenly matched can he maintain a neutral position and continuously improve himself.

Instead of becoming someone else's appendage.

"Since this is what you wish for, fellow Daoist, I will not force you."

However, I hope you will remember my words of instruction before entering.

I believe you, fellow Daoist, would also be unwilling to rise and experience the power of a Sage!

Taiqing's expression changed, but he still compromised.

Cihang truly and completely sided with Nuwa, he would find it difficult to recover.

In comparison, the current situation is actually the best.

"Please rest assured, Your Majesty, this is Cihang's true intention, and she will naturally not go against it."

If the Sage has nothing else to say, then Cihang will take her leave!

Cihang rose and bowed to Taiqing in farewell.

"Then I won't keep you any longer, fellow Daoist."

Taiqing waved his hand, clearly not wanting to say anything more to Cihang.

After bidding farewell once more and leaving Kunlun, Cihang breathed a long sigh of relief.

"Fellow Daoist Cihang, nothing happened, right?"

Zhenyuanzi and Hong Yun immediately stepped forward and asked with concern.

"Thank you for your concern, fellow Daoists. Everything went smoothly."

Cihang gave the two of them a genuine smile.

"It's good that you're alright!"

In the blink of an eye, the three had disappeared into the Kunlun Mountain.
