This is so dishonest!

Chapter 339 Xuan Qing: Styx, you want to kill me?!

"Your Meng Po soup is ready, three parts sugar, with ice."

Meng Wuyou handed a bowl of dark soup to Houtu.

Houtu glanced down, then suddenly took two steps back: "Oh, thank you. I just remembered I don't eat candy."

Meng Wuyou's hand froze in mid-air.

She and Houtu locked eyes.

"That's a pity," Meng Wuyou said with some regret.

She also wanted to see Houtu forget everything while drinking the soup.

The Mirror of Evil is ready; it's just waiting to capture a fragment of time and space.

"Fellow Daoist, when can we receive the Ghost Soul?" Houtu asked.

"Claim a ghost? You can do it now!"

Meng Wuyou casually conjured up a bright red spider lily.

Wow~~
After being boiled in the cauldron, wisps of ghostly spirits began to linger around the spider lilies.

"This is the person you are looking for, fellow Daoist." Meng Wuyou handed over the spider lily.

After Houtu took it, she asked, "Why do we have to drink this Meng Po soup?"

"Because we have to get them out of the soup," Meng Wuyou replied matter-of-factly.

"???"

Upon hearing this, Houtu's almond-shaped eyes widened and her small mouth opened slightly.

"So what you were planning to give me to drink just now was..."

"The Soup of Oblivion."

Seeing that Houtu looked quite surprised, Wuyou comforted her, "Calm down, calm down, it wasn't brewed in one pot."

"That's a welfare meal for employees of the underworld, this is prison food."

"Different."

Houtu pursed her lips, said nothing, and turned to leave.

The underworld is terrifyingly dark.

If we stay any longer, nobody knows what will happen.

"Fellow Daoist Wupan, don't be in such a hurry! I'll have Judge Cui Yu escort you!" Meng Wuyou called out.

"No, no, my four fellow Daoists need to be resurrected; time waits for no one." Houtu quickened her pace.

"Come visit the Underworld whenever you have time. We'll be colleagues from now on!" Meng Wuyou waved.

"Next time definitely!"

Houtu fled the underworld as if she were escaping.

~~~~
"Panpan the Fairy is so much fun."

Watching Houtu flee in disarray, Meng Wuyou couldn't stop smiling.

"Why tease her, Wuyou?" Xuanqing appeared beside Meng Wuyou, quietly watching Houtu leave.

"It seems you haven't let her off the hook either!" Styx's figure appeared as well.

Styx felt somewhat guilty about tricking Houtu.

After all, as the sorcerer god Qiangliang, he had a good impression of Houtu, the true leader of the sorcerer god organization.

"At least Panpan Immortal's ability to create mischief is among the best in the Primordial True Realm!" Styx affirmed Houtu.

Whether it's those mythical scenarios where the fake becomes real, or the current Ancestral Witch Project, they are all very good.

Who in the entire prehistoric world would have thought of creating a fake Pangu heart?

Moreover, the chances of this plan succeeding are not small.

"Everyone, remember to get to know each other better. You'll be colleagues soon, and you'll be working together for a long time!"

Meng Wuyou couldn't help but laugh at the thought that even after all the hard work Panpan Fairy had put in, she would still end up falling into the trap Xuan Qing had dug.

"Xuanqing, who do you decide and when will build the Great Cycle?" Styx asked.

"No rush. Now that we've found a sponsor, let's take it slow."

Xuan Qing smiled and said, "What we need to do now is to make use of the Great Luo Dao Fruits such as the Destruction Demon God, the Slaughter Demon God, the Death Demon God, and the Truth Demon God."

At this point, Minghe suddenly said with great enthusiasm, "Don't worry, don't worry, the Dao Fruit of Slaying Demon Gods will be put to use soon!"

He is the master of the Dao of Slaughter, and the Dao of Slaughtering Demons and Gods is very much in line with him.

With a little time to digest this, Styx will be able to break through to the Tai Su Daluo realm!

"The Dao Fruit of the Death Demon God is being digested." Under the Bridge of Helplessness, Wangchuan happily emerged from the [Realm of Helplessness].

Throughout the Great Calamity of the Ferocious Beasts, Wangchuan did not go to the front lines. Instead, he led the ghosts and immortals of the underworld to collect souls and was responsible for sending the deceased to the myriad realms for reincarnation.

"With the Dao Fruit of the Death Demon God, I can break through to a higher level and let the Soul River flow through all the heavens and myriad realms, laying the groundwork for the Underworld to spread throughout all the heavens and myriad realms!"

Wangchuan was filled with surging emotions and brimming with confidence, which even caused the Yellow Springs River to churn.

"Let's all keep up the good work. Take this time to reflect and mature. There's no need to rush to break through. Just go with the flow."

Xuanqing gazed at the vast, desolate land and said, "The ghosts and gods of our underworld have always cherished life and loved peace."

"Fighting and killing are not our goal; our development vision is to create a good home for all living beings in the primordial world!"

"My lord is right!" Wangchuan listened attentively.

He said with a devout expression: "As the saying goes: flesh and blood are weak and suffering, but the true spirit is immortal; by killing for the sake of heaven and earth, one transcends the world!"

"Our Underworld is the benchmark force for the future development of the primordial world."

"Hey, wait a minute." Meng Wuyou looked at Wangchuan in surprise upon hearing the slogan: "Who came up with this concept?"

"Isn't the motto of our underworld 'The Netherworld, the final resting place for all souls'?"

"This is my summary!"

Styx stepped forward, patted his chest, and said proudly, "The characteristic of my path of slaughter is seeking the Dao within oneself, while the path of slaying demons and gods is the path of seeking it externally!"

“I used to think that both of our paths were about killing, but with different focuses, so we couldn’t merge.”

“Recently, I have been studying his Dao and discovered that his Dao and my Dao can be combined.”

"It can even be combined with the Great Dao of Ghosts and Gods!"

Styx excitedly said, "The way of ghosts and gods is to live towards death, seeking only a bit of true spiritual transcendence to attain the ultimate fruit of all worlds." "But the way of killing can not only kill oneself and others, but also kill heaven and earth."

"But my path of killing is not simply about killing for the sake of killing, but about helping all beings transcend, helping them take the step towards life through death, and transforming into ghosts and gods to break the precept of killing!"

"Killing is for the purpose of protecting life; this is the very principle!"

After hearing this, Meng Wuyou and Xuan Qing exchanged a glance.

"My lord, is there something wrong with this?"

Seeing that Xuanqing remained silent, Wangchuan spoke up, saying, "How fragile and weak is the flesh and blood body? To transcend the underworld, death is inevitable."

"Brother Styx has combined the path of killing that seeks to explore the outside world with the path of ghosts and gods. I thought this path was truly the road to prosperity for our underworld—oh dear, why did Sister Meng hit me?"

Wangchuan covered his forehead, looking at Meng Wuyou with a puzzled expression.

"You two are going a bit too far!" Meng Wuyou rolled her eyes.

"Once our underworld is established, there will be a steady stream of souls coming here. We are not short of candidates for ghost immortals and gods."

"Furthermore, the ultimate results sought by the path of ghosts and gods in all lifetimes are sought from oneself. Whoever wants to cultivate can cultivate, and whoever does not want to cultivate can change to another path. There is no need to make choices for sentient beings."

"Finally, putting aside the question of whether the heavens and earth of this primordial world can be killed, I only want to ask you, who controls the heavenly and earthly laws of this primordial world?"

Meng Wuyou glanced at the excited Styx with a strange expression: "Could it be that your so-called killing of heaven and earth is just an excuse, and you actually have some bad intentions towards Xuanqing?"

"Huh? No, that's not true at all!"

Styx gave an awkward smile, his eyes darting around. "I just recently comprehended the Dao Fruit of the Slaughtering Demon God, and this is what I felt compelled to say."

He secretly glanced at Xuan Qing.

Xuanqing then appeared deep in thought: "Your idea actually makes some sense."

"If the path of killing is to seek beyond, let alone kill the heavens and earth of the primordial world. If you kill me, the Heavenly Emperor and the Underworld Emperor, the Great Dao might actually advance."

Upon hearing this, Styx's eyes lit up. He rubbed his hands together and pulled out two killing swords: "How about we give it a try?"

Xuan Qing's eyes narrowed instantly: "You, Styx, you really think that way?!"

"You've gotten too cocky just because you fused with a Slaughter Dao Fruit!"

"I'm not, I didn't!"

Styx hurriedly shook his head and retreated, saying, "This is a reasonable deduction based on the development of the Great Dao!"

"That's a logical deduction—ah!"

~~~~
The celestial sphere is the Taiwei Enclosure.

One by one, the gods received the decree and came to hold a meeting.

"Eh? Where is Fellow Daoist Xuyao?" [Supreme Venerable Jingyao Ziqi] looked at his left-hand divine throne, which was empty. Styx had not come.

From the main seat, Xuan Qing said calmly, "Fellow Daoist Xu Yao said he is going into seclusion to break through to the next level, so he won't be attending the meeting."

"Xu Yao's Great Dao has improved? That's a good thing."

[The Supreme Venerable of the Moon] Wang Shu sent blessings to the Styx, "Wishing him all the best."

Rahu also arrived.

As always, they were impeccably dressed and meticulous.

"Fellow Daoists Taibai, Yinghuo, and Zhenxing are also absent?" [Shuiyao Chenxing Shangzun] Zulong looked at the divine thrones on his left and right sides. Zhunti, Yuanhuang, and Zhenyuanzi had all asked for leave.

Fuxi didn't come either.

Because he "sacrificed" himself.

This character is still in AFK mode.

"After the great calamity, we will enjoy boundless blessings; this is what the Heavenly Emperor said!"

[Sun God] Emperor Jun is online. He said with a smile, "It's not a necessary meeting. Everyone wants to take a break and give themselves a vacation."

"It's a good time to consolidate what I've gained from the great calamity and strive for a breakthrough as soon as possible."

"Then why are you so enthusiastic, fellow Daoist?" [Supreme Venerable of the Water Star] Zu Long.

"you still need to ask?"

Di Jun's expression suddenly turned serious. He looked at Xuan Qing and said, "I am utterly loyal to the Heavenly Emperor and will obey any decree. This is as clear as day!"

Upon seeing this, Wang Shu covered her mouth and laughed.

"And what about you, fellow Daoist?" Di Jun asked Zu Long.

"Me? Of course I broke through!" Zu Long said happily.

Having said that, he released his aura, which was none other than that of the Tai Su Daluo realm!
Zu Long said smugly, "Seclusion is completely unnecessary."

"It's really delaying my search for the Three Thousand Weak Waters."

Di Jun originally wanted to praise Zu Long, but after hearing the last sentence, he didn't know what to say.

【Fellow Daoist Chenxing is as persistent as ever!】

"Why has the Heavenly Emperor summoned us this time?" Nuwa asked, looking at the main seat from the twelfth throne.

Xuanqing said, "There are two main things: one is to retrieve Fellow Daoist Suixing (Fuxi), and the other is to deal with Hongjun."

Upon hearing this, a glint flashed in Nuwa's eyes.

Is the conflict between Taiwei and the Immortal Path finally about to be brought to the forefront?
"We must support this in dealing with Hongjun!" Dijun responded enthusiastically.

Taiichi was the one who went on the robbery last time, and he didn't participate. We definitely can't miss this opportunity!
"Yes, this old Taoist actually dared to compete with our Taiwei Yuan for control of the Heavenly Dao, it's simply outrageous!" Zulong also harbored considerable resentment towards Hongjun.

In his view, Hongjun's meddling in the Heavenly Dao was tantamount to stealing the opportunities from his Dragon Clan.

You must know that the Taiwei Heavenly Emperor is a rotating emperor. When it is the turn of the Ancestral Dragon to become the Heavenly Emperor, the Heavenly Dao authority will not be complete. Wouldn't that be troublesome?
"We, Taiwei, are enough to represent the will of Heaven."

"Yeah!"

Everyone was filled with righteous indignation and condemned Hongjun with words and writings.

However, they subconsciously overlooked the fact that Fuxi had already "died".

He is still waiting to be resurrected.

Even Nuwa didn't care.
