Hongjun Battles Mysterious Person, Target is Xuan Yi?

"Fellow Daoist, since you've already left the Primordial Chaos, why return?"

In the chaos outside the Primordial Chaos, the Dao Ancestor and a mysterious figure stood facing each other.

"Hmph, Hongjun, you know why I've come today. Just let me take him, and I'll leave immediately."

The mysterious figure showed no fear towards Hongjun, who had merged with the Heavenly Dao.

"It seems we'll have to fight today! If you can defeat me, you can naturally take him away!"

Dao Ancestor Hongjun's hands unleashed boundless divine principles. With a flurry of movements, all the Spiritual Treasures he had distributed to everyone else flew back to him.

Meanwhile, the mighty beings within the Primordial Chaos cried out in alarm as their Spiritual Treasures vanished!

"Where are my Spiritual Treasures!"

"How did my huge Spiritual Treasure disappear?"

"..."

The mysterious figure in the chaos remained unfazed, observing hundreds of Spiritual Treasures swirling around Dao Ancestor Hongjun.

"Haha! Hongjun! I have now attained the Grand Unity Golden Immortal of the Great Dao (equivalent to the Heavenly Dao). Do you think I fear you?"

Dao Ancestor Hongjun did not retort. He casually produced the Pangu Banner, and endless chaotic sword energy shot towards the mysterious figure.

The mysterious figure was unmoved. The chaotic sword energy passed through him like bubbles, leaving him completely unharmed.

With a gentle wave of his hand, the Pangu Banner was collected.

Seeing this, the Dao Ancestor did not panic. Another Xiantian Supreme Treasure appeared in his hand: the Taiji Diagram.

The Taiji Diagram materialized, transforming into a golden bridge that descended to suppress the mysterious figure.

But alas, with another wave of his hand, the mysterious figure took control of the Taiji Diagram as well.

"How is this possible?"

Hongjun found it hard to accept. Then, he unleashed all his Spiritual Treasures at once.

Shanhe Sheji Diagram, Red Embroidered Ball, Immortal Slaying Sword Formation...

One by one, the Spiritual Treasures emitted dazzling golden light and attacked the opponent.

Yet, facing such a barrage of magical treasures, the mysterious figure remained incredibly calm.

His sleeves billowed in the wind, and countless magical treasures were swept into them.

"What? Are you going to take out more treasures?"

After collecting all of Dao Ancestor Hongjun's treasures, the mysterious figure asked smugly.

"I have lost!"

Dao Ancestor Hongjun's voice was low, his expression grim. He had no choice; this person's cultivation had reached the Grand Unity Golden Immortal of the Great Dao, and even with his fusion with the Heavenly Dao and all his treasures, he couldn't do anything to the opponent.

"Since that is the case, I shall return these treasures to you!"

Unexpectedly, the mysterious figure returned the treasures to Hongjun.

Seeing his Spiritual Treasures returned, Hongjun no longer made a move. With a wave of his hand, the countless Spiritual Treasures returned to the hands of the beings in the Primordial Chaos.

"I came today only to take him away. I have no intention of meddling in the affairs of the Primordial Chaos. I hope you will keep your promise!"

Upon hearing this, Hongjun could only look at the other party with innocent eyes. He was so angry, but he couldn't defeat him.

"Alas, forget it!"

"Yang Mei, don't get too smug. Whether that little fellow is willing to go with you is still unknown!"

That's right, the one fighting Hongjun was Yang Mei, who had attained enlightenment in the chaos.

Hearing Hongjun's words, Yang Mei chuckled, "Whether he is willing to leave with me, I will hear it from his own mouth. You shouldn't interfere!"

"You probably don't know yet, Xuan'er is already married. His wife is even a Saint appointed by the Heavenly Dao and has currently achieved sainthood. Do you want to break them up?"

At this point, Hongjun was no longer flustered. So what if he couldn't defeat you? If the child is unwilling, can you force him to go with you?

"What? Xuan'er already has a Dao Companion? And she's a Heavenly Dao Saint?"

Yang Mei was also astonished. He had been diligently cultivating in the chaos all these years, aiming to take Xuan Yi away as soon as possible. He never expected Xuan Yi to be married already.

"This makes things difficult!"

Yang Mei, who had been full of confidence, now lacked assurance. A Heavenly Dao Saint cannot leave the Heavenly Dao. He couldn't possibly ask Xuan Yi to abandon his Dao Companion, could he? Yang Mei found it too challenging.

"Alas, forget it! Forget it!"

"Hongjun, I wish to see Xuan'er and his Dao Companion. If Xuan'er is unwilling to leave, I will not force him."

In his helplessness, Yang Mei compromised.

"Good. Yang Mei, I hope you keep your word. Otherwise, even if I risk my life, I will never let you forcibly take Xuan'er away!"

After speaking, Hongjun transmitted a message towards the Primordial Chaos. "Xuan'er, bring Nuwa to the chaos."

On Buzhou Mountain, Nuwa and Xuan Yi were discussing the strange phenomenon of their Spiritual Treasures suddenly disappearing and then reappearing.

"I'm afraid only Father could have the ability to do this in the Primordial World. But why would Father take the Spiritual Treasures?"

Just as everyone was wondering, Hongjun's voice reached their ears.

"Father is calling for us? Let's go!"

Xuan Yi and Nuwa hurried towards the chaos.

In the chaos, Hongjun and Yang Mei were staring each other down, neither speaking. Just as the atmosphere became awkward, Xuan Yi appeared with Nuwa.

"We pay our respects to Father!"

Xuan Yi and Nuwa cupped their fists and bowed to Hongjun.

"Xuan'er, I've called you here today because of this person!"

Following the direction of Hongjun's gaze, an elder with an immortal bearing appeared before Xuan Yi.

"Junior Xuan Yi, may I ask who you are, senior?"

Xuan Yi, who had been so imposing facing Hongjun moments ago, now seemed a bit flustered when faced with Xuan Yi's question, unsure how to respond.

Perhaps seeing Yang Mei's predicament, Hongjun inwardly chuckled and spoke up.

"Xuan'er, I've told you before that you were born from the fusion of the Primordial Chaos Bead and a sliver of the Heavenly Dao that escaped, and that I created you using the vital essence of two other great beings. This is one of them."

"He is also your father!"

Upon hearing this, Xuan Yi and Nuwa were greatly shocked and immediately bowed down.

"Your son Xuan Yi pays his respects to Father!"

"Your daughter-in-law Nuwa pays her respects to Father!"

Seeing that Xuan Yi acknowledged him, Yang Mei was incredibly excited, and even Hongjun didn't seem as annoying anymore.

Yang Mei quickly helped them up and said, "Good children! Good children! Get up quickly!"

He carefully examined Xuan Yi and Nuwa, becoming happier the more he looked.

Indeed, they are my children. They look so handsome. And my daughter-in-law is impossibly beautiful. The two of them together are truly a match made in heaven.

"Xuan'er! My daughter-in-law! This is our first meeting, and I haven't brought any good gifts. I'll give you these things!"

In his joyous mood, Yang Mei activated the Law of Space, and a gray stone and a spiritual root slowly appeared.

"Xuan'er, this is a fragment of the Primordial Chaos Bead. I obtained it while traveling in the chaos. Your true form is the Primordial Chaos Bead. Refining this will allow your physical body to reach the level of a Xiantian Supreme Treasure."

"My daughter-in-law, this is the Yellow Middle Plum, one of the ten great Xiantian Spiritual Roots. I present this to you as a meeting gift!"

As a supreme being, to only give his children such small meeting gifts made Yang Mei feel a bit awkward.

"It's just that I've been cultivating diligently. And I returned all the spoils I took after defeating Hongjun back to him. But don't worry, children, next time I'll definitely bring you a hundred or eighty Xiantian Supreme Treasures as compensation."

Hongjun, who had just started to feel a bit of goodwill towards Yang Mei, was instantly angered, his beard bristling. What is this? Saying such things in front of the children, trying to show off how much stronger he is than me?

Enraged, Hongjun immediately undermined him: "Next time! When is 'next time'? A mere Grand Unity Golden Immortal of the Great Dao giving such meager gifts? I'd be embarrassed to even speak of it!"

"You, Hongjun, you..."

Hongjun's words left Yang Mei in a difficult position. He immediately patted himself, and two streams of brilliant light flew out from his body, then merged into Xuan Yi and Nuwa.

"This is my comprehension of the Law of Space. You can use this to comprehend the Law of Space."

One must understand that Yang Mei was now a Grand Unity Golden Immortal of the Great Dao, and he specialized in the Law of Space. This gift was far more precious than dozens of Xiantian Supreme Treasures.

"Thank you, Father!"

Xuan Yi and Nuwa quickly bowed.

"I originally intended to take you away, but seeing that you are living well in the Primordial World, I abandoned that idea. This is a branch of my true form, the Space Willow. Take it with you. If you are ever in danger, I can instantly reach your side through this."

Yang Mei ultimately gave up on taking Xuan Yi away.

"I still have a question I hope Father can answer!"

After accepting the willow branch, Xuan Yi looked at Hongjun and Yang Mei and asked.

"May I ask, which great being was the other one who contributed to my birth?"

Xuan Yi asked the question that had been troubling him for a long time.
