Kunlun Mountain
"Senior Brothers Guang Chengzi, Chi Jingzi, Ci Hang, and Manjushri, the Saint has summoned you!"
The White Crane spread its wings and patrolled the mountains. Four streaks of spiritual light shot into the sky, appearing before the Jade Void Palace in an instant.
"Senior Brother, why has Master summoned us?"
Chi Jingzi hurried over and asked, only to see Guang Chengzi shake his head as well:
"I don't know either."
"We'll know once we see Master. Senior Brothers, Junior Brother Manjushri, this way, please."
Ci Hang smiled faintly, and the four of them stepped into the main hall.
"Greetings, Teacher. May your holy longevity be boundless."
"Rise."
Primordial Heavenly Venerate spoke, and the four of them rose to their feet involuntarily.
"Teacher, have you summoned us here to give us some instructions?"
As the leader of the Twelve Golden Immortals and the bell-ringing immortal of the Chan Sect, Guang Chengzi naturally spoke for them.
"Don't rush. Look!"
Primordial Heavenly Venerate pointed into the void. A clear spring emerged from the air, slowly spinning and transforming into a bright mirror. Within the mirror was Chaoge City, where Di Xin was carving the character "human" into Mo Xuan.
"The karmic connection between Yin Jiao and me... has been severed?"
Guang Chengzi's brows drew tightly together. His fingers moved constantly as he calculated, but his expression grew increasingly ugly:
"Di Xin! What a Di Xin! He was actually this decisive. In that case, I truly can't take this disciple anymore."
Yin Jiao was now the Crown Prince of Yin Shang, not the "dying man" he would later save. With the destiny of Yin Shang that Yin Jiao currently possessed, if he accepted him as a disciple, he would certainly be dragged into Yin Shang's affairs by karma.
This did not align with the Chan Sect's plans. Moreover, with the severing of the Three Corpses imminent, he did not want to incur any more karma.
If all else failed, the little child beside him seemed to possess "Heaven's Mandate" as well.
"What exactly is this Di Xin trying to do?"
After Mo Xuan opened his eyes, Chi Jingzi's face flushed with anger:
"He carved the Human Race Destiny into another person's soul, linking that person to the destiny of the entire human race. Heretical nonsense! Heretical nonsense!"
"Teacher!"
"Set disorder right and restore order. Go, go."
Primordial Heavenly Venerate waved his hand. The Water-Fire Bell instantly enveloped the four of them, carrying them across boundless space and appearing above Chaoge City, over the Mo Residence!
"If he carves the Human Race Destiny into every child, then after we accept them, won't our own destiny become bound to Yin Shang as well?"
Manjushri opened his mouth and gently blew out a breath. A fierce gale suddenly arose from nowhere, sweeping the four little fellows away.
"Chaoge? Human King, the fortunes of Cheng Tang are destined to perish. The Saint has followed Heaven's will in making this decision. You cannot overturn it."
Chi Jingzi gave a cold snort. How dare a mere Human King set a trap for them? If killing him would not result in backlash from destiny, how could he have allowed him to live until tomorrow?
"If that's the case, then I have all the more reason to give it a try."
Di Xin waved his hand. The Black Bird raised its neck and swallowed the Kongtong Seal. Its entire body suddenly shrank, finally transforming into a seal imprint that landed atop Di Xin's head.
"Which immortal will go first?"
"Shameless!"
Fury surged from Chi Jingzi's eyes. This bastard was certain that he did not dare kill him, wasn't he?
"Looks like it's Immortal Chi Jingzi, then. In that case, this Di Xin will presumptuously ask for your guidance."
Di Xin spread open his right hand. A wisp of flame slowly rose, illuminating the eight directions. It was gentle yet blazing.
"This is the Fire of Humanity. Its offensive power isn't strong, but for a friendly exchange, it will be enough."
"Water-Fire Bell, come forth!"
