Keep Bluffing, Then Keep Bluffing

Yuanshi sat quietly in meditation, asking for opinions.

A moment of silence.

Laozi slowly spoke, "I already have a way to restrict the Human Race."

"Oh? What method?"

Yuanshi's expression shifted slightly, and he asked with a hint of curiosity. He also had his own ideas and wanted to hear if Laozi had a better plan.

"This is simple. The reason why the Human Race has become uncontrollable is entirely due to the actions of the boy beside Ling Xiao. With just a little effort, I can restrict or even eliminate him."

"At that time, everything will naturally return to normal."

Laozi said calmly, a cold glint flashing in his eyes. The Human Race now seemed to disregard the Human Sect.

It's time to turn this situation around.

"That's excellent. That's what I thought too. As long as we eliminate this scourge Ziwei Attendant, Human Race will naturally return to its original position."

Yuanshi said with a smile that his thoughts were roughly the same as Laozi's.

"Once that wretched Ziwei leaves the Human Race, we will then cultivate a new Human Race emperor."

Laozi said with a faint smile, "The selection of the Human Emperor must be related to them, so that they can completely control the Human Race and obtain the fortune of the Human Race as the protagonist of heaven and earth."

This is the inevitable trend of the future.

We must fight for it.

Yuanshi nodded in deep agreement, and was about to say something when a servant boy came to report.

"My lord, the Sect Leader Minghe of the Nether Sea of Blood and the Styx River requests an audience!"

Upon hearing this, Yuanshi and Laozi exchanged a silent glance, their expressions becoming inexplicably strange.

They probably guessed why the Minghe had come.

"Bring him in."

Yuanshi instructed, "Since the Minghe has come to our door, there is no reason not to see it."

Would these Sage be afraid of this?

The boy bowed and departed, soon bringing the Minghe with him.

"The Minghe has met the Two Saints."

"Minghe, what urgent matter brings you to us?"

Yuanshi remained expressionless and asked indifferently, maintaining a great distance, as if they had just met.

Minghe's heart skipped a beat; they were pretending not to know!

Yuanshi and Laozi are trying to renege on their promises!

The bad feeling is too strong!

Even so, Minghe remained calm and showed no sign of it, instead speaking with a smile.

"I suppose the two saints are too busy to remember some things. I made a special trip here to ask if they still remember the promise they made back then?"

As soon as he finished speaking, Laozi and Yuanshi's expressions darkened slightly.

I never expected Minghe to be so oblivious. They're clearly not going to admit it, yet they're still bringing it up?

A filthy thing, actually dreaming of becoming a saint?

Why is there such a lack of self-awareness?

If someone like you can become a saint, what will all the beings in the Primordial World think?

A hint of displeasure flashed in the eyes of the two sages, but they did not show it. Yuanshi paused for a moment and then slowly spoke.

"Minghe, you are unlucky and have missed the best opportunity to become a saint."

He sighed softly, as if with regret and helplessness.

What do you mean?

Minghe's expression changed slightly, and he asked in a deep voice, his heart filled with intense anger, his pupils seemingly turning redder.

Yuanshi remained calm and continued unhurriedly, "Originally, you had the opportunity to become a saint through the Sea of Blood, using the maintenance of order within the Sea of Blood and the purification of its filth as the foundation for your sainthood... Unfortunately, that's no longer possible."

Upon hearing this, Minghe's expression grew even more unpleasant, his gaze shifting uncertainly.

The meaning of "Yuanshi" is that he could have become a saint through Sea of Blood, made a great vow, and so on, just like the Two Western Sages.

However, the Sea of Blood has now become the site of the Six Paths of Reincarnation, as Houtu preemptively established the Reincarnation.

It's no longer possible to use the Sea of Blood as a pretext for achieving sainthood and enlightenment!

Yuanshi's words are indeed reasonable. Houtu was able to become a saint in the Sea of Blood, so he himself would have had the same opportunity.

In other words, his opportunity was stolen by Houtu!

It hurts! It hurts so much!

Minghe's pupils were blood red, and his face was almost contorted with rage.

He recalled the day Houtu a saint. If he had sensed it beforehand and driven her out of the Sea of Blood, would he still have had a chance?

Is there still a chance to salvage the situation?

Minghe calmed down a bit, then asked through gritted teeth, knowing that Yuanshi's words were somewhat of an afterthought.

These are all cunning and shrewd people who have lived for countless years.

Especially Sage are difficult to fathom.

He knows many things that he doesn't know.

Yuanshi remained silent, appearing unfathomable. Just as Minghe was about to lose his composure, Laozi stroked his white beard, having made up his mind.

"Minghe, a new destiny has now been revealed. You missed the chance to prove your path in the Sea of Blood; it can only be said that this was not your destiny."

"Please enlighten me Taiqing Saint."

Minghe's face lit up with joy, and he respectfully addressed Laozi.

Laozi nodded slightly, his posture perfectly measured and natural.

"As you've probably seen, since the destruction of the Wu and Demon races, the Human Race has become the dominant force in the Primordial World, and is thriving."

"The destiny of heaven now rests on the Human Race. As long as you are reincarnated, join the Human Race, become the Human Race emperor, and achieve sainthood by borrowing the Human Race's fortune, it is not difficult."

Laozi Tzu said with a smile, and even Yuanshi looked over in surprise upon hearing this.

Minghe was completely dumbfounded and shocked, never expecting that Laozi would come up with such an outrageous idea.

Are you kidding me?

Reincarnation into the Human Race?

He was a primordial deity, with a powerful origin, an inexhaustible Sea of Blood, and an immortal Minghe. To reincarnate him as a human would mean abandoning everything he originally possessed, wouldn't it?

This is tantamount to abandoning the body of a true dragon and being reborn as a mayfly or an ant.

Why give up being a god and become a beggar?

"Isn't this method far too risky? The Human Race has the Ziwei in control, and more than a hundred Daluo Golden Immortal. Even if I were to be reborn as a human, how could I possibly become the emperor of the Human Race?"

Minghe asked with a grim expression, "Although ordinary Human Race are weak, they have a group of freaks protecting them, and they can even withstand the former demon race."

If I were to be reincarnated and lose everything from my previous life, how could I possibly contend for the Human Emperor?

Even now, he can't do anything to Human Race.

Is this a joke?

He just blurts things out without thinking.

"If you don't want to tell me the way to sainthood, you don't have to try to fool me like this, do you?"

"I, Minghe, am not a fool!"

He thought resentfully, "If it weren't for the fact that he was facing Sage and he couldn't beat him, he would have slapped him long ago."

I'll make you speak without thinking!

Upon hearing this, Laozi chuckled and said, "Minghe, if I were to eliminate Ziwei, with your abilities, controlling the Human Race shouldn't be difficult, right?"

"Oh?"

Minghe's eyes flickered. In the end, the reason why the Human Race is now so indestructible is all because of Ling Xiao's child.

If we eliminate him, the difficulties will be reduced by 70-80%. As for the remaining Daluo Golden Immortal, with his abilities, he certainly has a good chance of circumventing the situation.

"May I ask, Your Majesty, what has become of that... Golden Crow Soaring to the Heavens?"

Minghe suddenly asked, which was also what he was worried about.

Laozi chuckled, "Don't worry, with the Dao Ancestor here, they will no longer be seen in the primordial Primordial World."

Minghe secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

Seeing this, Laozi changed the subject and continued, "Minghe, if I remember correctly, you still have half a wisp of Primordial Violet Qi within you?"
