He had barely finished playing the victim in front of Nuwa before he came to Tongtian to do the same. Same routine, same lines, same old formula!
"Tongtian Sect Master—no, Saint Tongtian. The Demon Clan is in trouble, and Empress asked me to come and ask whether you could lend the Demon Clan a hand?"
"Empress?"
Tongtian raised a brow.
"Nuwa?"
"Yes, yes! Nuwa, Empress! Saint Tongtian, you don't know how bad things are. The three tribes and the Two Sages of the West have joined forces to besiege the Demon Clan. The Demon Clan really can't hold out any longer!"
Tongtian froze when he heard this, utterly puzzled.
???
Nuwa had asked Kunpeng to seek his help?
Something about this felt strange...
Could it be that even with Nuwa's strength, she still couldn't wipe out those old bastards?
Hadn't Nuwa already reached the Three Heavens of the Saint Realm? With Di Jun, another Saint, joining forces with her, they should have been able to deal with the three tribes and the Two Sages of the West.
Besides, this was originally the Demon Clan's affair. What did it have to do with him, Tongtian?
What was more, the Demon Clan had invaded the Human Race time and again. Di Jun in particular never changed his ways and had even tried to attack his master. The Demon Clan and the Human Race had an irreconcilable grudge.
As his master's disciple, he naturally stood on the side of the Human Race and naturally had no fondness for the Demon Clan.
Because of this, Tongtian had no desire to help.
In the Primordial World, it was better to have one less matter to deal with. Otherwise, he would only end up entangled in some inexplicable Karma for nothing...
