Bringing Them to Heel

"Your Holiness, if we choose to surrender, may we be allowed to reproduce and survive in the chaos?"

A being resembling a leader on the other side also asked the Dao in a Daoist voice through some kind of device.

"Yes, you can even choose to submit to my Primordial World and receive my protection."

Qing Xuanzi felt that such a technologically advanced civilization still had some use, so he made a suggestion.

The other side wasn't stupid either; they knew the dangers of chaos, and without the protection of a powerful being...

Even if Qing Xuanzi agrees to release them, they might still face the annihilation of their entire clan.

After a brief discussion, the other party responded to Qing Xuanzi's proposal:

"They can serve as a subordinate race of 'Qing Xuanzi' in exchange for Qing Xuanzi protection, but they only recognize 'Qing Xuanzi' and do not acknowledge the Primordial World."

Qing Xuanzi smiled and said, "Okay."

How could 'Qing Xuanzi' not know their thoughts? They probably already knew about the Primordial World and even the chaos.

Although it may not be complete, the general situation is certainly known.

They probably thought that although the individual cultivation levels of the creatures in the Primordial World were powerful, they could still resist them.

They did not want their race to become subservient to the Primordial World and be oppressed by the creatures of the Primordial World.

All they needed was Qing Xuanzi's reputation in the Primordial World and the chaos, enough to make those powerful beings somewhat wary.

Even Qing Xuanzi could be certain that once they became powerful and became regional overlords, they would definitely break away from his protection.

Of course, they would only do this if they felt they were capable of resisting Qing Xuanzi.

"Alright, put away your World Extinction Array, lest you accidentally destroy yourselves."

When Qing Xuanzi left, he certainly did not forget to deter them, letting them know that even if they knew that he had the method to destroy the world, he was not afraid.

Of course, he also left behind a jade slip so that they could contact him at any time in case of danger.

It also makes it convenient for me to rush to the rescue at any time.

It's basically the same old carrot and stick approach, old-fashioned but very effective.

"They've taken care of it? Why didn't they expose themselves?" Yinguo asked curiously.

"Hehe, subduing them is also an option. Although they are weak individually, their weapons are not without merit. By the way, did you encounter any Chaos True Water when you were scouting before?"

"Huh, you think there's such a thing? I'm not afraid you'll get angry, but if I had it, I would have taken it long ago. Why would it be your turn?"

"So, it's very likely that they know I'll be there, and they're deliberately coming to see if I have the ability to take them away?"

Cause and Effect and Shi Chen exchanged glances: Qing Xuanzi is good in every way, but he's too good at showing off. He got a good deal, but he still couldn't resist showing off at the end.

If it weren't for his special status, I would have really wanted to rob him and let this kid show off.

However, despite his thoughts, he still said aloud, "Qing Xuanzi, you should also go and enjoy the benefits. In the future, one of us will be in Primordial World and the other in the Primordial World. If anything happens, please let us know in advance, so as not to cause trouble for each other, okay?"

"That's natural. In fact, if fate can successfully take the position of Heaven, wouldn't there be a natural additional channel of communication between you and me?"

"Yes, yes, fate is the most suitable channel of communication."

"Alright, I'm leaving now. Go back and tell Destiny to come find me at the Human Race Dao Palace; he knows the place."

After saying that, Qing Xuanzi disappeared from the spot.

"Not bad, it feels pretty good to have a reliable ally," Shi Chen remarked.

"Now you know the benefits of having allies. I don't know who said it before, but the Primordial World is something that can be obtained at will, so why bother with allies?" Yinguo didn't care about Shi Chen's face at all and directly slapped him in the face.

"That's all in the past now."

"..."

In the Primordial World, the Human Race Dao Palace.

As soon as Qing Xuanzi returned, Hongjun, the Three Pure Ones, Nüwa surrounded him.

"What happened?" Hongjun asked first.

"It's nothing, those illegal immigrants just wanted to give me a surprise, it's all over now."

"That's good. What about the Heavenly Dao?" Hongjun continued to ask about the previous topic.

"It's easy. When I went out just now, I encountered fate. I promised him that if he came back to continue working on the Primordial Era Heavenly Dao, he would definitely have a way to enter the Heavenly Dao Space."

"Fate? Hmm, if he can put aside past grievances, that would be a good idea."

Just then, a human came in and reported, "Master, a Chaos Demon God who calls himself the God of Destiny has made an appointment with you."

"Let him in."

The Destiny Demon God walked in, beaming with pride.

"Hey everyone, long time no see."

"Very well, since Qing Xuanzi has chosen to cooperate with you, we should cooperate wholeheartedly." Hongjun stated his position first.

"No problem, let's not talk about Heaven or Heavenly Way. From now on, we'll discuss it together." Destiny had found the best opportunity for cultivation, and he felt a surge of joy.

They didn't dare to be too high-profile, after all, everyone here was a core member of Qing Xuanzi's group.

They could basically influence Qing Xuanzi's behavior; if they maintained good relations with him, they wouldn't do anything bad.

Even the usually stern-faced Three Pure Ones revealed a smiling face.

They certainly don't want to go back to the days when the will of Heaven was pressing down on them.

Since fate has sent a signal of reconciliation, that's for the best.

Laozi, acting as a representative, responded, "In that case, congratulations to Fellow Daoist Destiny on your re-ascension to the position of Heaven."

"Haha, thank you all for your support. This matter still needs to be decided by Fellow Qing Xuanzi."

Having learned a lesson from fate, I've finally learned humility and the importance of allies.

"In that case, Fellow Daoist Destiny, why don't you quietly enter the Heavenly Dao Space now and investigate whether our entry might alert it? I know you have ways to protect yourself, don't you?"

Seeing that everyone's meeting and exchange were complete and the situation was harmonious, Qing Xuanzi immediately began to take action.

"It's nothing. I'll go in and take a look first. If it's successful, I'll open the passage to the Purple Cloud Palace; otherwise, you should be able to see what's happening."

Fate, knowing that things should be done sooner rather than later, revealed its plan.

"Can."

As Qing Xuanzi finished speaking, the body of the Destiny Demon God gradually faded away.

"The Heavenly Dao Source, impressive skill! He's even refined a significant portion of the Heavenly Dao Source. Entering the Heavenly Dao Space should be quite smooth for him."

Hongjun sighed. Although he had expected it, he realized that if it hadn't been for Qing Xuanzi, his and several other saints' futures would have been in jeopardy.

"We're ready too. Let's go, target: Purple Cloud Palace." After Qing Xuanzi finished speaking, several figures emerged from his body.

Upon seeing this, the Sages all smiled and each created a separate entity to travel together to the Purple Cloud Palace.

The name Purple Cloud Palace previously had another meaning: the spokesperson of the Heavenly Way.

However, this meaning was completely eliminated after outsiders occupied the Heavenly Dao.

The group of Daoists arrived at the outside of the Purple Cloud Palace with ease and familiarity with the place.
