Jin Chanzi pressed his palms together. "Amitabha. Human Sovereign Fuxi's name has long since spread throughout the Primordial World. I, too, have admired you for a long time!"
"In earlier years, I heard that Human Sovereign Fuxi was aggressive and ruthless, addicted to slaughter, and bent on war-a monstrous scourge of the Primordial World. Now it seems those rumors were untrue. Your compassion is rarely seen in this world."
Jin Chanzi praised the Human Sovereign so lavishly mainly because he had been moved by him.
Not one of the devils captured by the Human Sovereign had been killed. All had been handed over to Jin Chanzi to be purified.
This meant less bloodshed and gave everyone a chance to turn over a new leaf.
Fuxi rubbed his head in surprise. "Uh, was my reputation really that bad? But the Buddhist Sect once said, 'Lay down the butcher's blade and become a Buddha on the spot.' There is no longer any desire to kill in my heart, only compassion. The man I am now is entirely different from the man I was."
Jin Chanzi nodded. "What you say is indeed true, Lord Fuxi."
"These eyes of mine see such things most clearly. Otherwise, do you think I would have approached you so readily?"
Jin Chanzi looked completely at ease, without the slightest fear as he faced Fuxi.
Fuxi looked at him with both surprise and admiration. "Good, good, good. You truly are no ordinary man."
Bai Ze laughed then. "Would you two stop praising each other? You're making my teeth ache."
"Please come inside. The tea is already prepared."
Fuxi lightly slapped the back of his hand. "Oh dear, this memory of mine! I actually forgot. Forgive my poor hospitality. Come in, come in."
Jin Chanzi smiled faintly. "After you, host."
