Empress Pingxin's Incarnation as Meng Po, Saints Take the Blame for Lin Xuan

Actually, this matter had an incredibly huge impact on Empress Pingxin, who was originally Houtu among the Twelve Ancestral Witches of the Witch Clan.

After all, the one who died was the master of the boundless Sea of Blood, Old Ancestor Ming He!

Even during the Witch Clan's peak, they weren't confident they could directly suppress and kill him.

This veteran Quasi-Sage wasn't skilled in many things, but his ability to preserve his own life was top-notch.

Not to mention he wielded the Yuantu Abi Twin Swords, representing the Primordial World's path of slaughter!

Furthermore, ever since her eleven elder brothers and younger sisters all perished in the Lich War.

Old Ancestor Ming He had revealed his covetous desire for the Underworld's Reincarnation.

He had been constantly dispatching the Asuras from the Sea of Blood under his command to harass and invade the Underworld.

If not for Old Ancestor Ming He being suddenly killed by an unknown powerful being this time.

It wouldn't have taken much longer.

The entire Underworld Reincarnation would have been largely occupied by the despicable Old Ancestor Ming He.

And she herself would likely have been eternally imprisoned within Reincarnation, unable to emerge.

Upon realizing this.

Empress Pingxin couldn't help but feel a sliver of gratitude towards that unknown powerful being.

It was all thanks to his intervention in killing Old Ancestor Ming He and annihilating the Asura tribe.

Otherwise, the Underworld Reincarnation would have changed hands in the future, becoming Old Ancestor Ming He's Underworld Reincarnation.

After silently expressing her gratitude.

Empress Pingxin then summoned the great witches Yu Lei and Shen Tu to the Six Paths of Reincarnation.

She commanded them to lead the ghost generals and Witch Clan forces in the Underworld to occupy that boundless Sea of Blood.

Although the great witches Yu Lei and Shen Tu found Empress Pingxin's order somewhat strange.

Out of their natural trust in the Ancestral Witch, they immediately accepted the command and departed.

After they left, Empress Pingxin pondered for a moment.

Then, a clear light flashed from her body.

Immediately, a phantom-like figure emerged from her, gradually solidifying.

This was one of Empress Pingxin's three corpse avatars, Meng Po of the Underworld, condensed from Heavenly Dao Merit.

Due to being purely condensed from merit, this three-corpse avatar possessed very little combat ability.

Normally, Pingxin only had her boil Meng Po Soup before the Bridge of Helplessness, washing away the memories of departed souls so they could reincarnate without hindrance.

Empress Pingxin rarely used this three-corpse avatar.

But this time was different.

This time, she clearly sensed the bloodline fluctuations of Pangu the Father God.

And she herself was eternally bound to Reincarnation by the Heavenly Dao.

With no other choice, Pingxin could only dispatch this three-corpse avatar to the Primordial World.

To seek out the existence that inherited Pangu the Father God's bloodline.

At the moment Lin Xuan withdrew the Chaos Bead's power to conceal the heavenly secrets, the two Western Saints, Zhunti and Jieyin, who were sitting silently in the Jade Void Palace, immediately sensed it.

Their expressions couldn't help but slightly darken.

Old Ancestor Ming He was dead!

The Asura tribe of the Sea of Blood was also wiped out!

What could be done about this!

The reason these two Saints reacted so strongly to the demise of Old Ancestor Ming He was very simple.

Old Ancestor Ming He was related to a plan they had later on.

The two Saints of the Western Sect, Zhunti and Jieyin, had been secretly plotting.

To separate the Western Sect from the Xuanmen Dao Court and establish Buddhism independently.

To deliver a severe blow to the Three Pure Ones.

Old Ancestor Ming He was one of the Primordial Mighty Ones they had invited to join Buddhism.

At the same time, they had incorporated the bloodthirsty and warlike Asuras under Old Ancestor Ming He into their Eight Divisions of Devas of Buddhism.

They were one of the powerful forces that would allow Buddhism to flourish in the future.

But now.

Not only was Old Ancestor Ming He killed by an unknown powerful being, but even the Asura tribe he created had been completely annihilated.

Without the Asuras, who were skilled in combat, to act as their cannon fodder, how could their Western Sect form the Eight Divisions of Devas and achieve the great prosperity of Buddhism?

But this was merely a plan.

Zhunti and Jieyin, the two Saints, felt they had grievances but no way to voice them.

And no way to voice them at that.

If Primordial Heavenly Venerate and Grand Supreme Elder Laozi were to find out about this matter.

They would likely immediately wield the Pangu Banner and Taiji Diagram and fight them to the death.

At this moment, Primordial Heavenly Venerate and Grand Supreme Elder Laozi also sensed a warning from the Heavenly Dao.

Primordial Heavenly Venerate immediately asked with a tone of uncertain surprise:

"What happened? How did Old Ancestor Ming He fall?"

He immediately began to calculate the Heavenly Dao, trying to figure out who killed Old Ancestor Ming He and simultaneously annihilated the Asura clan.

However, the Heavenly Dao was chaotic, and nothing could be calculated.

The other three Saints also could not calculate anything.

They looked at each other with uncertain surprise.

Secretly guessing who had made the move.

Primordial Heavenly Venerate's first thought was Lin Xuan.

However, he then thought again.

Lin Xuan had been hiding on Golden Ao Island and was only a mere Quasi-Sage.

Even with the God-Slaying Spear in hand, he couldn't kill Old Ancestor Ming He, right?

Having already eliminated a correct answer, Primordial Heavenly Venerate thought this.

Could it be that the one in the Netherworld, or the one in Zixiao Palace, made the move?

The other Saints, Laozi, Zhunti, and Jieyin, also had their own speculations.

However, they did not include Lin Xuan in their calculations.

After all, in the eyes of these Saints, Lin Xuan was still that ant-like Quasi-Sage. Although he was audacious, he simply did not possess such strength.

And besides these Saints, the veteran Quasi-Sages in the Primordial World, such as Kun Peng and Zhen Yuanzi, also sensed the fall of Old Ancestor Ming He from the Heavenly Dao.

They subconsciously placed all their suspicions on those few exalted Saints.

Because these Primordial Mighty Ones all believed that besides Saints, it was difficult for beings of other levels to kill a Quasi-Sage, and an old Quasi-Sage at that.

And there were only a few Saints in existence between heaven and earth.

Thus, these Saints unknowingly took the blame for Lin Xuan.
