Outside the Dao Field, Nuwa's voice suddenly rang out.
"Daoist Companion Tongtian, Nuwa has come to visit. Please show yourself so we may meet."
Hearing Nuwa's voice, Xu Tong sent out a clone and casually opened the Dao Field.
By now, Xu Tong was quite accustomed to Nuwa's visits.
Looking at Xu Tong inside the side hall, a trace of puzzlement flashed through Nuwa's eyes.
"Your cultivation is truly profound, Daoist Companion. Even I cannot discern the slightest flaw."
By this point, Nuwa was increasingly convinced that Xu Tong was definitely not a Quasi-Sage.
At the very least, he was an expert on the same level as her.
Outside the Dao Field just now, she had tested that barrier herself. Even she had no confidence in breaking through it by force.
How could someone capable of establishing such a Dao Field possibly be a Quasi-Sage?
What Nuwa did not know was that she really was wronging Xu Tong on that particular point.
This Dao Field was a reward from the system, not something Xu Tong had established.
But since he had said nothing, Nuwa felt that Xu Tong probably preferred to keep his cultivation hidden. She simply chose not to expose him, and for a moment, the two seemed to share a tacit understanding.
"Daoist Companion, I came today specifically to thank you for protecting the Human Race."
Nuwa's expression grew somewhat solemn.
Xu Tong merely waved his hand upon hearing this.
"Your Ladyship need not be so courteous. Protecting the Human Race was never my intention. I was simply afraid the fighting outside would disturb my secluded cultivation."
"It was an unintentional act, not worth thanking me for."
Xu Tong spoke honestly.
Yet the more he said this, the more Nuwa felt that he was unwilling to claim credit.
