Since you want to tear away all pretense, Daochen, then I, Nüwa, have nothing left to hold back.
With my current strength, I have no need to fear you anyway!
"So you have come to settle scores after the harvest, fellow Daoist!"
Daochen was amused the moment he heard her.
This silly girl had only just caught on. Well, she was not entirely stupid.
But did whatever Nüwa said necessarily make it so?
"What do you mean, settle scores after the harvest? I came here only to demand an explanation from you."
At Daochen's question, Nüwa's face alternated between red and pale.
Especially when he mentioned settling scores after the harvest—the more she considered those words, the more they suggested that, after her Sagehood Attainment, she was throwing her weight around and repaying kindness with ingratitude.
After all, without the Three Treasures Daochen had provided, never mind losing half her providence—she could never have achieved Sagehood Attainment at all.
So turning around now to make trouble for Daochen...
Did indeed smack of repaying kindness with ingratitude.
Nüwa was not the only one who realized this. Houtu, Xuanming, Dijun, and even Eastern Emperor Taiyi all thought of it too, and now looked at her with strange expressions.
To start overturning the table immediately after her Sagehood Attainment made her grasping behavior rather unsightly.
With everyone staring at her so strangely, Nüwa felt rather embarrassed.
After all, when all was said and done, she still cared about saving face.
But even if she did not settle scores with Daochen by blowing up the Sun God Palace...
She still had to vent this anger!
Nüwa raised her head and looked at Daochen again, speaking coldly.
"Why did you scheme against me?!"
"Scheme? Where does that accusation come from? I do not understand."
