Primordial Era: When a Good Guy Awakens a Morally Unethical System

"It's me!" Hongyun admitted directly after she had finished laughing.

"You..." Tongtian's face was red and his neck was thick. He pointed at Hongyun, looking furious but unable to bring himself to do it, as if Hongyun had committed some heinous crime.

Hongyun quickly stepped forward, grasped Tongtian's finger, and humbly said, "Oh! It was just a joke! Yuanchen and I exchanged a glance that day, and instantly understood each other, so I just used the recording stone to help him out!"

"There's also the matter of Yuan Chen?" Tongtian was shocked once again.

Hongyun said matter-of-factly, "Otherwise, why did you suddenly hit him? Wasn't it because you were angry with him? I just played a trick on you with him."

"And don't you think it's more likely to make his second brother angry and more exciting to watch you beat Yuan Chen?"

Hongyun suddenly felt that she could join a pyramid scheme and say anything against her conscience.

Tongtian flicked his sleeve. Although he admitted that his second brother's angry face was quite funny, he had been beaten, and he had been beaten even worse than Yuan Chen!

There is no reason to explain why Hongyun deliberately caused him to be beaten.

"Oh dear, don't be angry!" Hongyun grabbed Tongtian's sleeve and shook it.

Zhen Yuanzi suppressed a laugh and turned his head away. He was never worried that Hongyun's relationship with Tongtian was better than his own, precisely because Hongyun never hesitated to harm Tongtian. He would harm him whenever he had the chance, and if he didn't have the chance, he would create one.

Tongtian turned his face away, looking angry and impossible to appease.

Hongyun: "So what do you want? I'll compensate you with something nice?"

Tongtian became interested. What kind of thing could Hongyun call a good thing?

But he didn't show it on his face, so as not to let Hongyun think that he was easy to coax. This kind of thing must not happen again. His second brother's beating still hurts!

"I'll give you something absolutely amazing in return!" Hongyun assured him once again.

Then he turned around and said, "Zhen Yuanzi, bring Xuandu to my fellow Daoist Laozi."

Zhen Yuanzi frowned slightly, wondering what Hongyun was up to this time, and his intuition told him it wouldn't be anything good.

Seeing that Zhen Yuanzi didn't move, Hongyun urged him again, "Go quickly!"

Zhen Yuanzi went anyway, even though he knew this might cause Tongtian trouble again.

Then Hongyun took Tongtian to hold a newborn human to play with. The baby, only a few months old, was very delicate and didn't shy away from being alone. Tongtian was so touched by the baby's cuteness that his heart almost melted.

This child wasn't going to apologize; Hongyun then took Tongtian to find Xuandu.

Xuandu was helping the old man-like Laozi walk slowly, occasionally answering a few profound questions from Laozi. Laozi looked at Xuandu with admiration and affection.

Hongyun: "Do you think Fellow Daoist Laozi really likes that young man? Could he be considering taking him as a disciple?"

Tongtian hesitated for a moment: "Tell me, what would happen if I accepted the disciple that my elder brother had taken a liking to?"

Hongyun's scheme succeeded, and the little man spun and jumped wildly.

"That's not a good idea. You just got beaten up by Fellow Daoist Yuanshi, and you want to get beaten up by Fellow Daoist Laozi as well?" But as a friend, I still had to offer some perfunctory advice.

Having made up his mind, Tongtian gritted his teeth and said, "What's one more meal to me?"

Hongyun couldn't help but laugh again. He really wanted to record this moment and show it to his fellow Daoist Laozi later.

Since Tongtian was so determined, how could Hongyun, as a friend, not help him? He immediately shouted, "Xuandu, come here!"
