The five members of the Three Pure Ones were taken aback by Luo Qing 'Luo Qing words and glanced at him.

He couldn't help but glance at the Ancestor Hongjun and the Saint Nuwa at the head of the table.

Even Nuwa and her companion hadn't expected Luo Qing to expose their scheme on the spot.

Luo Qing looked at everyone with a smile.

They seemed completely oblivious to the awkward atmosphere.

The Three Pure Ones, Jieyin and Zhunti were cursing inwardly.

I can't help but want to give a thumbs up to Saint Luo Qing.

They had already intended to back down and didn't want to bring up the matter in this setting.

But now that Saint Luo Qing has revealed the truth, it's no longer their concern.

Even if Master Hongjun were to blame, it wouldn't be their fault.

The Three Pure Ones were Direct Disciple of Ancestor Hongjun, so it was really not appropriate for them to express their opinions at this time.

I'm really torn.

If Luo Qing's words were answered, it would be a slap in the face to Hongjun Dao Ancestor.

But if they denied it on the spot, they would have no face to come to Phoenix Perch Mountain to ask Nuwa for guidance again.

Jieyin and Zhunti were merely Nominal Disciple of Ancestor Hongjun.

Since the master-disciple relationship was not close, they couldn't care less about saving face for Ancestor Hongjun.

Since Saint Luo Qing has given us a way out...

Jieyin and Zhunti exchanged a glance.

Zhunti received the hint in Jieyin's eyes and immediately understood.

At present, mastering the secrets of Sage is still the most important thing.

Everything else has to make way.

At worst, I can just apologize to Ancestor Hongjun later.

On the throne, Nuwa looked at Ancestor Hongjun.

I want to know what the teacher means.

At this time, it would be best if the Ancestor Hongjun were willing to personally instruct a few disciples.

That way, it'll save us from an awkward situation.

Just as Ancestor Hongjun how to deal with the awkward situation created by Luo Qing...

Zhunti was below, bowed to Luo Qing and spoke.

"My four senior brothers and I have come here today with the intention of seeking the secret to breaking through to the level of Sage."

"I wonder if the Saint Huode could offer us some guidance?"

Zhunti opened his mouth, he dragged the Three Pure Ones into the mess as well.

This indicates that the five of them will advance and retreat together today.

Even the usually calm and composed Laozi Tzu couldn't help but curse Zhunti in his heart at this moment.

The Three Pure Ones are not in cahoots with Zhunti.

But by this point, there was no room for the Three Pure Ones to turn back.

We can't very well refute Zhunti on the spot, saying they're here for tea!

Even the Three Pure Ones could not do something so contrary to the principles of Tao.

At the same time, the Three Pure Ones Sect couldn't help but focus their attention on Luo Qing.

They were also eager to know how to break through and become Sage.

Once you become Sage, what difference does it make if you offend Master Hongjun today?

Who knows, Master Hongjun might need their help someday!

If one cannot become Sage, no matter how much one pleases Master Hongjun or how close the relationship is, it will be of no use.

Upon hearing what Zhunti said...

Nuwa didn't care; her relationship with the Three Pure Ones Jieyin and Zhunti, and Zhunti was only superficially that of senior and junior siblings.

She still had a smile on her face.

The eyes of the Ancestor Hongjun held a slightly dark and gloomy look.

His teacher was still in the hall, but Zhunti was completely disregarding him.

Shouldn't we seek guidance from him, our teacher?

It's not really Zhunti; he didn't consider the teacher's feelings.

When Jieyin and Jieyin and Zhunti were at Spirit Mountain, they frequently sought guidance and advice from Ancestor Hongjun.

But Ancestor Hongjun rarely responds.

Even if a response is given, it's meaningless.

Zhunti was genuinely worried that he might ask Ancestor Hongjun about it at this moment.

Ancestor Hongjun gave a perfunctory reply, something like "figure it out yourself."

In this situation, Nuwa and Luo Qing would inevitably give Ancestor Hongjun some face.

I will no longer give them pointers.

Then today's plans are completely ruined.

Since it concerned Attain Sainthood, how Zhunti dare to take such a great risk?

Compared to Ancestor Hongjun, Zhunti was more inclined to believe that Luo Qing would offer them guidance.

Otherwise, why would Luo Qing have said that?

Compared to the embarrassed Ancestor Hongjun, Luo Qing was being Zhunti by Zhunti.

A smile, however, appeared on his face, suggesting that the boy was teachable.

I can't help but give Jieyin and Zhunti to Jieyin and Zhunti, this pair of brilliant strategists.

What a perfect opportunity this is to sow discord between Ancestor Hongjun and the Three Pure Ones, Jieyin and Zhunti and Zhunti!

Being in front of Ancestor Hongjun amplifies the effect of sowing discord.

Luo Qing glanced at Ancestor Hongjun expression remained unchanged, revealing nothing unusual.

All eyes turned to the five people, including Zhunti.

A kind smile appeared on his face.

But in my heart, I've already started secretly digging a hole for myself.

"Has Fellow Hongjun already instructed you on any secrets to breaking through to the Sage?"

You tell me, so I don't have to keep repeating myself!

Upon hearing this, Luo Qing...

Not only Jieyin and Zhunti, but even the Three Pure Ones couldn't help but glance at Ancestor Hongjun.

For a moment, I was so embarrassed that I didn't know how to answer.

Tell the truth?

Did Ancestor Hongjun not teach you even the slightest bit of guidance?

That was truly a humiliation of Ancestor Hongjun.

Even the usually Zhunti became apprehensive.

It's not a big deal to have offended one's own teacher.

Ancestor Hongjun couldn't possibly cause them trouble over such a trivial matter.

But if they really dare to act recklessly, I'm genuinely worried about the retaliation from Ancestor Hongjun.

Nuwa and Ancestor Hongjun saw through it.

Today, Luo Qing is deliberately trying to embarrass Hongjun Dao Ancestor.

"The battle between Dao Ancestor?"

Nuwa was quite troubled.

Even after she became a saint, she was still quite wary of Master Hongjun's potential power.

Imagine if Ancestor Hongjun had six Sage disciples in the future, who would be in charge of the Primordial Wilderness then?

Nuwa wished for the relationship between the Three Pure Ones and Ancestor Hongjun to become estranged.

Regardless of anything else, Ancestor Hongjun was her teacher.

Phoenix Perch Mountain is also her territory.

Luo Qing frequently embarrassed Ancestor Hongjun, which also made Nuwa look bad.

Just as Nuwa was about to speak up to save face for Hongjun, the Ancestor Hongjun.

Luo Qing seemed to have already seen through Nuwa's thoughts.

They spoke up first.

This time it was intentional.

Luo Qing looked at the silent Three Pure Ones and the others with surprise, then suddenly turned his gaze to Ancestor Hongjun and said:

"Fellow Hongjun, you didn't tell Tongtian and the others even the slightest bit of information about the Sage, did you?"

Ancestor Hongjun understood that Luo Qing was deliberately trying to sow discord between him and the Three Pure Ones.

It humiliated him.

Ancestor Hongjun gave Luo Qing a deep look with a calm and composed expression.

There was no response to Luo Qing's question.

Finally, their attention turned to the Three Pure Ones Jieyin and Zhunti.

As Ancestor Hongjun's gaze fell.

The Three Pure Ones Jieyin and Zhunti immediately tensed up.

They were still quite afraid of their Sage teacher, Ancestor Hongjun.

"As a teacher, I have always respected the way of nature, for the Way arises from the heart."

Everything in the universe, all causes and conditions, arises in accordance with the natural order.

Even today, I still hold this view.

"I will ask you one more time today: do you truly desire a shortcut to sainthood?"

At this moment, the Ancestor Hongjun exuded a majestic and awe-inspiring aura, commanding Awe-Inspiring without Anger.

Although his expression was calm, it greatly increased the pressure on the Three Pure Ones and Jieyin and Zhunti, who were facing the holy might.
