They Cihang in silence and soon arrived at the Empress Wa's Palace.

"Fellow Daoist Nuwa, what brings you here to invite me?"

Seeing Nuwa's exceptionally enthusiastic attitude, Cihang asked a question.

"The real reason I invited you here is to ask you for a favor."

Fellow Daoist, you also know about Brother Fuxi's situation.

After being reincarnated as a human, his brother's condition improved, but it still required an extremely long time to recover, let alone restore his cultivation.

My current level of cultivation is inseparable from my elder brother's protection and care. Even the Primordial Violet Qi was something my elder brother wanted me to have.

"Now that the human race is flourishing, with the emergence of the Three Sovereigns Five Emperors, I wish to secure the title of the most powerful for my elder brother. I hope you, fellow Daoist, can assist me!"

Nuwa spoke with genuine emotion, and when she spoke of Fuxi, she could not contain her heartache.

Although the Saint Position is a constraint for her now, it does not mean that it is unimportant.

If she had not been able to attain sainthood, she would have had no chance to cultivate the Great Dao of All Living Beings.

It was precisely because she attained sainthood first that she was given unlimited possibilities.

Even if she were given another chance to choose, she would still do her best to obtain the Primordial Violet Qi.

"I understand your feelings, fellow Daoist. It is indeed a pity for Fellow Daoist Fuxi."

With Fellow Daoist Fuxi's cultivation and aptitude, he is certainly qualified to become the Human Emperor.

However, Cihang is currently only at the Sub-Saint level, and is powerless to do anything about this!

Cihang was not surprised by Nuwa's request, but as he said...

Although he possessed one-tenth of the human race's fortune, this one-tenth was not enough to determine the position of the Human Emperor, not even with the combined efforts of Nuwa.

"Fellow Daoist, there is no need to worry at this time."

Humanity was created by me, and the establishment of the Human Teachings by Taiqing incurred my karmic Karma.

Now it's time to repay the debt.

"As long as you agree, Brother Fuxi will surely obtain the destiny of the Human Emperor!"

Nuwa was certainly not unprepared.

Previously at the Zixiao Palace, she had also reached a consensus with Taiqing.

She didn't care about the merits and fortune of the position of Imperial Tutor. Instead, Human Teachings about Karma and helped them expel the Two Sages of the West in exchange for Taiqing's recognition of Fuxi.

"Since you have already made preparations, Fellow Daoist, Cihang will naturally not refuse."

"Fellow Daoist Fuxi can become the Human Emperor, he can naturally enable the human race to achieve better development!"

Cihang did not refuse and agreed to Nuwa's request.

He had no intention of changing Fuxi's position as the Human Emperor.

Fuxi's past identity is not important; what matters is what came after.

After a long period of reincarnation, the demonic aura on Fuxi was almost completely washed away.

They also felt a greater sense of belonging to the human race.

"Thank you, Nuwa Daoist. Nuwa will not let you down."

"My elder brother's true spirit is obscured after his reincarnation, and he has no memories of his past life. He needs the assistance of fellow Daoists to prove his Dao and become the first Imperial Tutor!"

Nuwa's worried expression vanished, replaced by joy as she bowed in gratitude to Cihang.

With Cihang's consent, the human race's fortune fluctuated, and an invisible force of fortune was bestowed upon Fuxi.

Nuwa had been keeping a close eye on Fuxi, naturally noticed the change in his fortune immediately.

Although Fuxi's past is gone, his inner strength remains. The position of Imperial Tutor for Fuxi is not one that an ordinary cultivator can hold.

Compared to the Sanqing, Nuwa clearly trusted Cihang more.

She also cared about the merit and fortune that would bring to Cihang through the position of Imperial Tutor.

"Then thank you very much Fellow Daoist Nuwa!"

The position of Imperial Tutor? Cihang didn't have much of an interest in it, but with the opportunity right in front of him, he wouldn't give it up.

Although he himself possesses abundant merit and good fortune, one can never have too much merit and good fortune.

Moreover, he needs merit and good fortune to offset the suppression of heaven and earth, in order to prepare for breaking through to the Primordial Origin Golden Immortal.

"I should thank you for your disappointment, fellow Daoist. I'll leave the matter of my brother's path to enlightenment to you!"

Nuwa rose and bowed to Cihang.

"Fellow Daoist Fuxi in attaining the Dao is a matter of immeasurable merit, and I naturally cannot refuse."

However, although Fuxi's position as Human Emperor has been established, he still retains some remnants of the demon race's fortune.

Fellow Daoist Fuxi, if you wish to attain the Dao and become the Human Emperor, you must first completely integrate into the human race and abandon your identity as a demon.

Even if he regains his cultivation and memories in the future, his past will be erased. Fuxi can only be the Human Emperor Race, not the Demon Race Xi Huang!

Cihang's expression turned solemn; there was no doubt that Nuwa had to accept this.

Otherwise, even if Fuxi were forcibly placed on the throne of the Human Emperor, it would be difficult to achieve complete success.

"Thank you for the reminder, fellow Daoist. Nuwa will sever all Karma between my brother and the demon race."

After this day, Fuxi will be nothing more than a human, and all past Karma will be wiped away!

Nuwa's voice was hesitant, yet exceptionally firm.

She knew perfectly well what that meant.

She didn't care whether Fuxi was a demon or not.

However, all past Karma has been erased, including the sibling bond between her and Fuxi.

Once Fuxi becomes the Human Emperor, he will no longer be the Innate God-Demon he once was, but a true human being.

However, for the sake of Fuxi's Great Dao, Nuwa still agreed.

Regardless of Fuxi's origin—whether he was Innate God-Demon or demon, a monster, or a human—he was her elder brother.

The bond that has lasted for millions of years will not change because of blood ties.

"In that case, when the time is right, I will personally guide him into the path of cultivation, teach him the way of governing the world, and help him become the supreme Human Emperor!"

Cihang also assured Nuwa that she would definitely help Fuxi successfully attain enlightenment.

"With you here, I am naturally at ease."

If I hadn't made mistakes back then, I probably wouldn't be in this situation now.

Fellow Daoist Cihang, Nuwa hereby formally apologizes to you.

Many thanks to you, fellow Daoist, for disregarding past grievances and still being willing to help me!

Nuwa rose and bowed, her expression utterly sincere.

She had long regretted her past arrogance, which led her to lose Cihang, her closest friend.

Although Cihang didn't hold it against her, the two could never go back to how things were before.

Seeing Cihang succeed in his schemes time and time again, profiting from the hands of the saints, Houtu even awakened the Earthly Path and became a saint because of him.

However, she was limited in every way, and after losing Cihang's help, she accomplished nothing.

Previously, Nuwa had been too proud to admit her mistake, but now she lowered her arrogant head and apologized to Cihang.

"Fellow Daoist, why are you so upset? You have done nothing to wrong me."

Back then, you were Heavenly Dao Sage, while I was merely a Quasi-Saint. Our strength and realm were different, so our status and position were naturally different as well!

Cihang didn't care at all; he had already defined his relationship with Nuwa in his heart.

The two were friends, but not true confidants.

Even now that Nuwa has bowed her head and apologized, Cihang has no intention of changing her mind.

Nuwa apologized and regretted it because she saw that there was a greater benefit for him.

If given the chance to choose again, she still wouldn't change her mind.

As for Human Dao, he would help Nuwa, but his own well-being was always the most important thing.
