"Why the rush?"

"I've had this idea for a while!"

Hong Yun had already been planning to discuss the Dao with Hou Tu and learn about the Law of Earth.

He was just wondering how to bring it up when Hou Tu herself mentioned it.

Hong Yun said with a look of pleasant surprise:

"Thank you, fellow Daoist!"

After thinking for a moment, he cupped his fists towards Xuanming and said sincerely:

"Thank you as well, fellow Daoist Xuanming!"

Xuanming let out a soft hum.

"It was Sister Hou Tu who helped you, why are you thanking me?"

Seeing Hong Yun's slightly awkward expression, Hou Tu quickly smoothed things over:

"Alright, let's make good use of our time!"

"The next sermon is only ten thousand years away, we must cherish the time in between."

As she spoke, Hou Tu's mind stirred.

A hazy, grayish-yellow aura appeared from Hou Tu's body.

Within it, a miniature Primordial Era floated and sank, with all things growing and developing upon it!

Although the Witch Clan did not cultivate the Nascent Soul, they still possessed souls, with an inextinguishable spiritual light guarding their souls.

At this moment, Hou Tu was directly using her soul to control the Law of Earth, manifesting it before Hong Yun.

"Fellow Daoist... why don't you directly sense it with your divine soul..."

Hou Tu said, her face blushing.

"Uh..."

Hong Yun was stunned on the spot.

One had to know that even when discussing the Dao, friends would generally only pass down knowledge verbally.

They would demonstrate the changes in their own Dao through their divine abilities.

Even brothers like the Three Pure Ones only merged their Nascent Souls to comprehend each other's Dao.

How could someone who wasn't exceptionally close directly reveal their Nascent Soul or divine soul?

It was just that Hou Tu remembered Hong Yun's help.

If she only explained it verbally and demonstrated it herself, Hong Yun wouldn't know when he would comprehend it.

Moreover, her Nascent Soul had only just been cultivated and was too weak to be used.

So, she made up her mind and chose this method!

This way, Hong Yun could directly sense the Law of Earth with his divine soul. If Hong Yun was a bit lazy, he could even directly imprint Hou Tu's comprehension onto himself.

This would increase the speed by more than a thousandfold!

One had to know that in the path of Law, the most important thing was "comprehension"!

"Fellow Daoist Hong Yun... such a good person, even if it's like this..."

"It should be alright..."

Hou Tu thought to herself, her face blooming with a rosy blush.

Hong Yun looked at Hou Tu like this.

He really didn't know if it was due to his own personal reasons, his own charm.

Or if the system had intervened, pushing Hou Tu along in the unseen currents.

Causing her to treat Hong Yun so openly!

Moreover, if their divine souls were to connect and comprehend the Power of Law.

This would essentially make them true Dao Companions!

Regardless of whether Hou Tu realized this or not, he had to make some gesture.

Hong Yun immediately stood up and performed a cupped-hand salute towards Hou Tu.

His expression was solemn as he clasped his hands and said:

"Hong Yun thanks Ancestral Shaman Hou Tu, and I will not fail your deep affection!"

As he said this, Hou Tu seemed to finally realize what her actions represented.

Xuanming also looked at her with surprise.

Her eyes held an inexplicable emotion!

The blush on Hou Tu's cheeks instantly spread.

stammered:

"I... I didn't mean it like that..."

Hou Tu lowered her gaze, her heart pounding.

"Perhaps... this isn't so bad either?"

Seeing Hou Tu's reaction, Hong Yun understood. It was the system's doing!

He knew it!

How could he have such great charm? After only meeting a few times, a Primordial Era Goddess like Hou Tu would fall for him?

He felt a sense of loss, but then his spirits lifted.

He thought, "Alas, it seems I can't do it on my own!"

However, since the system had already intervened.

How could he waste such a good opportunity now?

He knew that chasing a girl required initiative, even for a Primordial Era Goddess like Hou Tu!

Initiative was the first key to opening a girl's heart!

First, establish a relationship!

Once they were Dao Companions, they could spend time together, and Hou Tu would eventually truly fall for him!

Love would grow over time!

Disregarding Xuanming's presence, Hong Yun smiled and asked:

"But is there something about me that you dislike?"

Hou Tu was startled.

"It's not that..."

Hong Yun didn't dwell on the issue with Hou Tu and sat down again.

After inquiring with the system, he learned that the system would shield itself and would not be detected by Hou Tu.

Hong Yun's mind stirred, and like Hou Tu, his soul returned to his Nascent Soul. The Laws he controlled detached from his body.

Instantly, a fiery red radiance shone!

An anomaly appeared. It seemed that in the dim, yellow world, there was only this one red cloud.

Floating freely!

This was the true form of Hong Yun's soul!

As soon as it appeared, this red cloud seemed to sense the Law of Earth nearby.

Without Hong Yun's command, it spontaneously drifted towards Hou Tu!

Upon contact, a tremor resonated within both their souls.

"Boom!"

The true form of the red cloud dissolved!

It split into water, fire, and wind, transforming into three colors of origin!

Hou Tu's Law of Earth also, like a fledgling swallow returning to its nest, transformed into a yellowish-brown stream of air and joined them!
