Why Don't You Take This Third Punch Instead!

Faced with the condescending admonitions, accusations, and even threats from the Four Saints, a barely perceptible curve finally appeared on Jiang Yun's indifferent face.

He was not angry. His gaze calmly swept over Nuwa and Laozi, finally landing on Yuanshi Tianzun had spoken the most sternly.

A soft chuckle escaped Jiang Yun's lips, sounding particularly abrupt in the deathly silence of the battlefield.

He slowly shook his head, his gaze towards Yuanshi Tianzun carrying an almost pitying mockery. "Yuanshi, it is rather laughable that you utter the words 'Act on behalf of Heaven' in front of me."

His voice wasn't loud, but it was like a resounding bell, clearly reaching the senses of all living beings present, especially the several Saints.

"The way of Heaven is to do nothing, yet nothing is left undone."

Does it need beings of our level to speak for it?

"Especially..." Jiang Yun paused, his gaze sweeping over the four Saint present, his composure revealing undeniable confidence and power.

Before those of us who have already glimpsed part of the truth and touched the source of the Great Dao, why bother with such empty platitudes?

It'll only make you a laughingstock.

Upon hearing this, Nuwa and Laozi's expressions darkened slightly.

The Yuanshi Tianzun's face was as cold as frost. As the Yuanshi Tianzun of the Yuqing Purity Realm, in charge of the Chan Teachings, his words were law. When had he ever suffered such a direct confrontation and humiliation that pointed out his hypocrisy?

In particular, his teachings Chan Teachings following the natural order and clarifying the principles of Heaven, and he always considered himself the Spokesperson of the Heavenly Dao.

His body was filled with emanating Magical Power, and the Yuqing Immortal Light was faintly surging. Clearly, Jiang Yun's bluntness had touched a nerve.

Only the Sect Master Tongtian's eyes flashed with a sharp light, and a hint of interest curved his lips. Jiang Yun's sharp edge was clearly to his liking. He even subconsciously moved the fingers holding the sword, seemingly looking forward to what would happen next.

Ignoring the barely concealed rage emanating from Yuanshi, Jiang Yun's gaze shifted to Nuwa and Laozi. Finally, he calmly surveyed the frozen battlefield, his tone carrying an undeniable decisiveness, imbued with the Earth Qi of his cultivation and realm. "As for the grand trend, balance, and destiny that you fellow Daoists speak of... those are matters for you Saint to consider. We, the Primordial Daluo Golden Immortal, seek only clarity of mind, and the ever-growing prosperity of our Dao!"

He paused slightly, then declared decisively, "In the past, I assisted Nuwa in creating the Human Clan. Later, in pursuit of the Dao, I went to the Chaos Land. Before leaving, I entrusted the affairs of the Human Clan to my fellow disciples."

Now that my fellow disciples have been injured by the Demon Clan because of my request, and even almost died here, how can I not demand an explanation for them?

Today, this place holds both my grudge against the Demon Clan and my private agreement with the Demon Emperor Di Jun!

His gaze pierced through the black and white of the Taiji Diagram, looking directly at Di Jun Middle Qi was waning but whose eyes remained unyielding. "Di Jun, your impassioned speech just now has truly made you understand the demeanor of an emperor."

"The path you've comprehended holds promise for the Hunyuan; it's truly a pity."

Di Jun coughed violently a few times, a bitter yet composed smile tugging at the corner of his bloodied mouth, "Jiang Yun, the victor is king, the loser is villain, no need for further words!"

Although I have been defeated by you today, I have come to understand my own path, and even in death... I have no regrets!

"I only regret that I woke up too late... If I had followed your ideas and implemented the Beyond Heaven Fetal Membrane Plan..." He gasped, a complex look of regret flashing in his eyes.

Perhaps... it could truly bring a new era to the Primordial Desolation World, and my Demon Clan could also have entirely new possibilities... Unfortunately, I was blinded by the Karma-Virtue Attainment of the Dao back then... I was too arrogant and failed to see clearly. Now, thinking back, perhaps it was all a setup."

"The past is gone." Jiang Yun interrupted him, her voice still indifferent, but a slight ripple passed through the depths of her eyes, as if a silent sigh was uttered.

"I only have one question: the three-move agreement we made today is not yet complete."

"You Demon Clan, can you withstand my next move?"

Di Jun, standing in the Taiji Diagram, glanced at Taiyi and Kunpeng, who were also severely injured and dying beside him, and then looked at the few remaining Demon Saint and Bai Ze, whose eyes held a desperate yet calm light.

He gave a bitter laugh and shook his head, his voice hoarse but clear. "I... and the Demon Clan, our fate is sealed today, and I am powerless to withstand your third powerful attack."

Even if we are shattered to pieces, we will fulfill our promise today!

Jiang Yun nodded slightly, as if Di Jun's answer confirmed his thoughts.

His gaze suddenly sharpened, like two divine swords cleaving through Chaos, sweeping towards the Taiji Diagram surrounding Di Jun and the others. His voice suddenly rose, containing a vast and supreme Daoist aura that shook the universe. "Good!"

Since the Demon Clan is powerless to meet my challenge, I, Jiang Yun, am not one to break my word!

However, the agreement has not yet been fulfilled; how can we give up halfway?!

He suddenly raised his hand and pointed to the Taiji Diagram in front of Taishang Laojun, his voice booming like thunder from the heavens. "Laozi Daoist Laozi!"

Since your Taiji Diagram has protected Di Jun and the others, and acted as a guardian of the Heavenly Dao order... then please, you all... take the third move that Di Jun couldn't withstand!

"Whoosh!" Jiang Yun's words were like a boulder thrown into a calm lake, immediately causing an uproar.

Even Empress Nuwa's indifferent face showed a hint of surprise.

A flicker of surprise crossed Laozi Tzu's usually calm and collected eyes.

The Yuanshi Tianzun was even more enraged, his hair and beard standing on end:

You arrogant brat!

We, the Four Saints, have come together to seek forgiveness for the Demon Clan, yet you dare to disregard us Saint!

Daoist Tongtian's eyes lit up, and he couldn't contain his excitement, letting out a low exclamation. "Wonderful!"

Unlike the other three saints, he didn't feel that he had lost face. He just felt that this meant he would definitely have to spar with Jiang Yun, so his trip would not have been in vain.

The sword intent emanating from him was like a peerless divine weapon about to be unsheathed, ready to be unleashed.

To have Saint take the punch for Di Jun? This domineering and unruly attitude is the most blatant challenge to the existing rules, and it hits Tongtian right in the heart!

Jiang Yun actually intends to confront four Heavenly Dao Saint head-on with his own strength!

This stance is no longer a simple act of revenge or protecting one's own; it is a direct challenge to the existing order of Saint in the Primordial World!

Just as the tension was about to reach its peak, and the Saintly Might and the Hunyuan power were about to collide violently!

Buzz! Buzz!

On the Western Region horizon, a gentle yet resilient golden lotus light and a cool, vast blue Bodhi light suddenly shone forth!

Two equally majestic and profoundly powerful Saint Dharma Form appeared without warning; they were none other than the two leaders of the Western Teachings — the Daoist Jieyin and the Daoist Zhunti!

"Jiang Yun, hold your hand!" The Daoist Jieyin first, his voice carrying a unique sense of compassion and consolation, instantly easing the sharp killing intent on the battlefield that was about to tear everything apart.

Daoist Zhunti followed suit at the right time. The Seven Treasures Wonderful Tree shimmered slightly, and an invisible force swept across the void, seemingly dispelling the malevolent energy.

He looked at the Three Pure Ones and Nuwa with a gentle smile on his face:

Fellow Daoists, please be patient.

"This land has not yet suffered Great Tribulation; why should such a trivial matter warrant such a great commotion?"
