Nuwa, the goddess of the primordial era, said calmly, "Haven't I already told you my purpose?"

Nuwa, from Journey to the West, gritted her teeth and said, "You keep saying I'm stupid, then tell me, how am I stupid?"

Nuwa, the goddess of the primordial era, couldn't help but laugh, saying, "Aren't you foolish? If you're not foolish, then tell me, what did you do during the so-called Great Tribulation of the Investiture of the Gods in your world? Why has the human race, once a perfectly healthy race, been reduced to being nothing more than livestock kept by gods and Buddhas?"

Upon hearing this, Nuwa's expression froze.

She remained silent for a moment, a complex emotion flashing in her eyes.

"I...I am only acting in accordance with the will of Heaven," Nuwa said softly, her voice tinged with helplessness and resentment.

"The Way of Heaven?" Nuwa sneered. "If the Way of Heaven truly cared for all living beings, how could it allow humanity to suffer such torment? Have you ever considered why, after the Investiture of the Gods, humanity's status plummeted, while gods and Buddhas remained high and mighty? And why have you now become the lowest among all the saints?"

Nuwa was speechless. In fact, she had already had some doubts in her heart, but she dared not and did not want to investigate them further.

Now that Nuwa, the goddess of the primordial era, had seen through her words, she couldn't help but feel a chill in her heart.

"What...what do you want?" Nuwa from Journey to the West asked, trying to remain calm, her eyes fixed warily on Nuwa from the Primordial Era.

"I don't want anything." Nuwa shook her head. "I came here only hoping that you can see the truth and stop blindly following the arrangements of Heaven. Humanity should have its own choices and destiny."

Nuwa remained silent for a long time after the Journey to the West, knowing full well that what Nuwa of the Primordial Era said was true.

But she also knew that changing all of this would not be easy.

She sighed and said slowly, "I understand everything you're saying, but it's come to this... but what can I do?"

Just as Nuwa was about to say something, she suddenly felt an immense pressure.

She looked up and saw a vast expanse of celestial tribulation clouds appearing above her, looking exceptionally terrifying.

Nuwa from Journey to the West also noticed this situation. Even though she knew that the divine punishment was not directed at her, she couldn't help but feel nervous.

On the contrary, the ancient goddess Nuwa was quite carefree, smiling and saying, "It seems I've violated someone's taboo!"

Then, she looked at Nuwa from Journey to the West and said, "The choice is yours!"

As soon as she finished speaking, she raised her hand and took out a bead, and then her figure disappeared right in front of Nuwa in Journey to the West.

Nuwa from Journey to the West was stunned.

Because she had no idea what the bead that Nuwa had just taken out was, nor did she know how Nuwa had left.

What shocked her even more was that even the celestial tribulation clouds that appeared in the sky were now like headless flies, unable to lock onto the target of the tribulation, and finally had to dissipate.

Nuwa in Journey to the West couldn't help but wonder: Could it be that she has returned to her own world? Or perhaps she has a way to shield herself from the perception of the Heavenly Dao?

Her eyes flickered slightly.

Whether it's the former or the latter, it seems she has some room to maneuver.

However, before Nuwa could figure things out, she suddenly heard Hongjun's voice transmission: "Nuwa, return to Zixiao Palace!"

Nuwa, the goddess from Journey to the West, shuddered and respectfully replied, "Yes!"

After that, she didn't dare to think any further. Once she was sure that everything was normal at her dojo, she hurriedly headed back to Zixiao Palace.

When she returned to Zixiao Palace, she felt that the atmosphere inside the palace was significantly more solemn.

"Greetings, Master."

She carefully bowed to Xiyou Hongjun, then waited for him to speak so she could think of a solution.

But Hongjun from the West only glanced at her, waved his hand, and said nothing more.

Nuwa secretly breathed a sigh of relief before looking into the mirror where the other saints were watching.

Upon closer inspection, she realized that what was reflected there was a scene from the underworld.

Thinking of her past experiences, a thought suddenly struck her: "Could it be that Houtu in our world is also fighting with another Houtu?"

But to her astonishment, she discovered that things were completely the opposite of what she had imagined.

The two worlds' Houtu not only didn't fight, but also seemed to be having a pleasant conversation.

Nuwa from Journey to the West was very curious about what they were talking about.

Upon closer listening, she realized that the two Houtu were actually sharing their own insights into the cycle of reincarnation.

There were many other underworld ghost soldiers and generals nearby, as well as the Fengdu Emperor and the Ten Kings of Hell, all listening with expressions of sudden realization.

"this……"

This situation was completely unexpected for Nuwa in Journey to the West.

Nuwa from Journey to the West murmured to herself, "Houtu from another world went to such lengths to come here; surely it wasn't just to strengthen the underworld?"

What was said in jest was taken seriously by the listener!

Her words immediately provoked a strong reaction from Hongjun and the others.

"No! This might be the truth!"

Hongjun, the Primordial Emperor, said anxiously, "That Lu Yun, back in our world, gradually increased the strength of the Human Path and the Earth Path before finally forming an encirclement and annihilation force against the Heavenly Path! He is very likely trying to use the same tactic now, first breaking the Heavenly Path's rule over the world, and then further seizing control of the world!"

Hongjun's speculation instantly made the atmosphere in Zixiao Palace even more tense.

The gazes of all the saints became solemn.

After a moment of contemplation, Hongjun of the Journey to the West slowly said, "If what you say is true, then Lu Yun's plan is indeed far-reaching and cunning. We must take action as soon as possible to stop his plan."

The Primordial Heavenly Lord of the West frowned and asked, "Then how should we deal with this? Should we go to the Underworld now and stop those two Houtu from preaching?"

Upon hearing this, the saints present all began to ponder, considering what benefits it would bring them if they were to actually do so.

Zhunti, the monk from the Journey to the West, suddenly had a thought and said, "That makes sense! I think we should go even further and directly bring the Underworld under the control of the Heavenly Dao! This would completely eliminate any potential destabilizing factors!"

Upon hearing this, many people couldn't help but twitch their lips slightly.

They knew perfectly well that the reason Zhunti would make such a claim in Journey to the West was because many things in the underworld had actually been taken over by Buddhism.

If they really go to suppress the powerful figures of the underworld from the Houtu lineage, the Buddhist sect will benefit the most in the end!

However, Zhunti from Journey to the West spoke of this matter in a grand and righteous manner, as if he were considering everyone's interests, which made people truly admire his thick skin!

Hongjun, the Journey to the West strategist, would naturally not adopt such a suggestion.

After a moment's thought, Hongjun of the Journey to the West made a decision: "This humble Taoist will first send a telepathic message, inviting Houtu to the Zixiao Palace!" (End of Chapter)
