Ch. 161Helping neither side
Lu Feng advised Tongtian and Nuwa on how to navigate the conflict between Hongjun’s faction and Luohu. He proposed making a deal without helping either side, leaving the details to be worked out.
- Nuwa and Tongtian reacted with frustration when they learned Lu Feng had advanced beyond Tongtian, while the Jie Sect Disciples praised Lu Feng’s cultivation.
- Tongtian gathered the Jie Sect Disciples, Nuwa, Jiang Shang, and Ji Fa in Biyou Palace and said the Investiture of the Gods would proceed when the timing was right.
- After Jiang Shang and the disciples left, Tongtian and Nuwa asked Lu Feng for advice on facing Taishang and the Four Saints, who had sided with Hongjun.
- Lu Feng said Hongjun’s faction would focus on Luohu, who was certain to act, and warned that helping Luohu would provoke Hongjun.
- Lu Feng concluded that they could not help either side but could still make a deal.
