Upon hearing Nuwa's reply, the Three Pure Ones, Jieyin and Zhunti were all taken aback.

Should I go to the Sun Star to find that esteemed and entertaining His Majesty the Amusing One and inquire about my path to sainthood?

Ah, this--

They don't want to go into seclusion to recover from their injuries!

It will be alright.

Who would want to provoke that person, get beaten up, and spend dozens of years recovering from their injuries?

Although there is a high possibility of obtaining the opportunity to become a saint...

But actively seeking a fight--

This is truly too much of a challenge for the Three Pure Ones, who are extremely concerned about their reputation and image.

Especially at this crucial juncture of sanctification.

They really don't want to end up like Nuwa, leaving behind a dark history and memorable moments!

One side.

Jieyin and Zhunti didn't seem to care about saving face.

The main reason is that I don't want to get beaten up and seriously injured!

After all, they also had to protect the bloodlines of the many creatures of the Western Lands atop Mount Sumeru, lest they be taken away as prey by the Witch Race.

Although the Witch Race is changing, the two brothers maintain a state of mutual respect and non-interference.

But how should I put it?

It's better to be safe than sorry!

Jieyin and Zhunti found it hard to believe that the Twelve Ancestral Witches and the Witch Race had a grudge against them!

After a moment of silence.

Laozi Tzu then spoke again and bowed to Nuwa.

He said thank you.

"Thank you for your guidance, Sage Realm."

Although Nuwa did not directly reveal what their path to sainthood was, she did provide a path that was... not exactly straightforward.

Whether they want to leave or not is their business.

The most important thing is--

The path pointed out by the Sage Realm has an almost 98% chance of leading to sainthood.

No need for thanks.

Nuwa smiled, her beautiful eyes filled with profound meaning.

He spoke again:

"My three senior brothers and two junior brothers, we are all from the same school... We must keep in touch often in the future!"

"The situation in this world will never be peaceful again."

After saying that.

Nuwa's gaze, once again carrying a profound meaning, turned to the direction of the Sun Star!

After hearing Nuwa's words and seeing the look in her eyes...

The Three Pure Ones Jieyin and Zhunti, remained silent for a moment before nodding earnestly.

He responded:

"The Sage Realm is right!"

Indeed.

It should be--

We need to maintain a proper relationship!

In the blink of an eye.

Then another ten or so years passed.

The Sun Star.

Beneath the Fusang Divine Tree--

Leaning casually against the trunk of the Fusang Divine Tree, Dan Jing gazed at the image reflected on the surface of the Pure Yang Treasure Mirror in front of him.

That above--

This is the scene from years ago on the Jade Terrace in the Heavenly Court, after Nuwa preached, chatting with the Three Pure Ones, Jieyin and Zhunti!

Um...

That's right.

It is the whole process of Nuwa sending the Three Pure Ones, Jieyin and Zhunti to him to ask about the opportunity to become a saint, and the meaningful request for more contact!

Everything, big or small, is presented in its entirety.

Although this secret of the past was erased from all traces by Nuwa with her Sage Realm.

But for Dan Jing—

It's just restoring the erased traces!

He can see it if he wants to.

Not long after.

After reading through the entire Dan Jing, he frowned.

He snorted coldly.

"Presumptuous!"

"How dare you!"

"You really think I have no Laozi, huh?"

"Snort!"

Dan Jing was getting a little angry.

Certainly.

Dan Jing's anger wasn't about Nuwa's plan to "interact more" with her fellow disciples like the Three Pure Ones, Jieyin and Zhunti!

What angered him was --

Nuwa had clearly shown the way to the Three Pure Ones, Jieyin and Zhunti, telling them to come to her to be beaten... cough cough, to come to her for guidance.

But more than ten cycles have passed.

What about the Three Pure Ones?

Jieyin and Zhunti?

Where did they go?

Why not come and ask about the opportunity to achieve sainthood?

If they don't come, how else can they find some amusement in them and bully those who haven't yet become saints?

That's absolutely outrageous!

That's outrageous!

Even though she already knows there's a shortcut she can take, she insists on working hard herself. Does she look down on him, Master Dan Jing?

It seems they really look down on Uncle Dan Jing!

"Not coming?"

As Dan Jing raised his hand to retrieve the Pure Yang Treasure Mirror, the anger on his face instantly subsided, replaced by a wicked smile.

He smiled and said:

"What's so difficult about that?"

"Then why don't I just go find you myself?"

While they were talking.

Dan Jing stood up from under the Fusang Divine Tree.

He strode leisurely toward the outer Sun Star, walking unhurriedly.

The corners of his mouth turned up in a smile:

"Master Dan Jing personally delivered the opportunity to become a saint to my doorstep. I imagine Laozi, Yuanshi, Tongtian, as well as Jieyin and Zhunti?"

"Tsk tsk tsk--"

"I'm a good person in every way, except I'm too easily moved to do good deeds."

"I ask you--"

"In this Primordial World, who can be more benevolent than me?"

"Hahaha..."

Amidst hearty laughter, Dan Jing departed from the Sun Star, riding on the All-Heavens Auspicious Cloud, and leisurely headed towards Kunlun Mountain!

Kunlun Mountain.

Inside the Supreme Clarity Hall--

In his spare time from cultivating Daoism and refining elixirs, Taiqing Laozi suddenly felt a strange palpitation that reached straight to the top of his head and shook his mind.

Then.

Laozi's hand holding the Plantain Fan trembled instinctively, and his mind relaxed.

Bang--

A soft explosion came from the Eight-Trigram Alchemy Furnace in front of Laozi, marking that his attempt to refine the Nine-Turn Golden Pill was now ruined.

Only.

At this moment, Laozi had no time to worry about the trivial matter of his furnace exploding and ruining a batch of Nine-Turn Golden Pill.

He was thinking--

What could possibly happen, or what has already happened, that gives him such a sense of impending doom?

He is the true disciple of Pangu Orthodox Lineage, the direct successor of the Dao Ancestor, and a future Sage Realm!

Who could bring him to his doom? Who would dare to bring him to his doom?

Laozi frowned.

Laozi did not understand.

But soon--

Laozi understands.

Because a hearty laugh, familiar to him, or rather, to all the powerful beings in the world, echoed from Kunlun Mountain:

"Hahaha..."

Upon hearing that familiar, hearty laugh, Laozi instantly understood the source of his unease, his feeling that impending doom.

"Well..."

After a moment of silence, Laozi Tzu let out a soft sigh.

What's meant to be will be; if it's meant to be, you can't escape it.

In this world—

Perhaps only this one Your Majesty has the ability, the willingness, and the courage to make things difficult for his Laozi in all sorts of ways.

After letting out a sigh.

Laozi then composed himself, and with a thought, opened the doors of the Supreme Clarity Hall and walked out.

Clang--

When Laozi walked out of the main gate of the Supreme Clarity Hall, the adjacent Jade Clarity Hall and Highest Clarity Hall also opened.

Then.

Yuanshi and Tongtian also walked out of their secluded cultivation hall with solemn expressions!

The three brothers exchanged glances.

Laozi, as the eldest brother, spoke first:

Let's go!

"Go and greet His Majesty the Sun God, and remember not to be impolite!"
