Fuxi's words left Wu Chu somewhat baffled. "Why would you suddenly want to reincarnate and cultivate anew? And after reincarnating, would it necessarily work?"
The present Primordial World was no longer the Primordial World of the original myths. The Primordial Land had never even given the Human Clan's Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors a chance to rise.
That was because the Human Clan had developed far better than in the original Primordial World myths. They had no need for the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors to lead them, much less to suppress their Fortune.
Moreover, Fuxi had not fallen as he had in the original myths. Instead, he had become the Western Heavenly Emperor among the Five Emperors of the Heavenly Court. Was there really any need for reincarnation?
Nuwa said, "He insists on doing this. I can't persuade him otherwise, so you talk to him."
Wu Chu dearly wanted to say, If you can't persuade him, just beat him up! What man was naturally afraid of his wife? Weren't they all beaten several times before they started being afraid?
But Wu Chu did not dare instill such warped values in Nuwa, lest the Primordial World's first case of domestic violence occur in the household of the Human Clan's ancestral gods. The impact would be far too terrible.

Earlier, I went to comprehend the Way of Deduction left behind by that Sage from beyond the universe, Di Ji. I did gain some different insights, but I also felt that I had been constrained by my own understanding. That is why I wish to reincarnate and cultivate anew—to see whether I might gain different insights after losing the memories
