Chapter 775: Chapter 794 Nuwa Makes Things Difficult
A Saint’s anger could turn Heaven and Earth upside down; this was no re saying, but an eternal truth. When Nuwa revealed the inviolable majesty of a Saint, the stars in the sky all abruptly ca to a halt.
The silence was terrifying. No one spoke; instead, all eyes that turned towards Ye Xuan were colored with pity, for Nuwa’s will could not be violated, and today, neither of the two Great Demons Emperor would die.
“During the ancient Sealing God Tribulation, Hong Jun, the Ancestral Master, decreed that Saints must not intervene. Could it be that you wish to defy the will of Ancestral Master Hong Jun?”
Ye Xuan stood holding his spear, his expression dark as water, neither servile nor overbearing, but his voice was icy cold to the extre. Had it not been a true Saint standing before him, he would never have lowered his stance to converse such and would have struck with his spear to claim the other’s life.
Unfortunately, Ye Xuan was very clear-headed; he was, after all, facing a true Saint, a suprely exalted existence in Heaven and Earth.
Let alone his severe injuries, even in his pri, not to ntion possessing the Chaos Absolute Heaven Array, he would definitely not be a match for Nuwa.
Endurance was the only option. If he did not endure, and if Nuwa found a reason to kill him, he would certainly face a trendous life-and-death tribulation today!
“Taiyi and Emperor Jun owe a debt for assisting in my ascension to sainthood. I must repay this favor. Even if it goes against the Dharma Decree of Ancestral Master Hong Jun, I am determined to save their lives,” Nuwa spoke calmly, without a hint of mundane concerns. Just as she said, the debt of ascension was greater than Heaven. Without the assistance of the two Great Demons in the past, she could not have achieved sainthood through rit.
It was the law of cause and effect at play. If she did not save them today, even a strand of her Saint Heart would unravel!
More critical still was that Nuwa had already been drawn into this conflict between Heaven and Earth. If she allowed Ye Xuan to continue growing, until he beca the seventh Great Saint, he would surely seek to settle today’s cause and effect with her.
The cause and effect tied to Saints were far too terrifying – this was not the outco Nuwa wished to see. So, saving the two Great Demons was secondary; at this mont, Nuwa appeared calm, but inside, she was weighing sothing crucial concerning Ye Xuan’s life and death.
“Since Lady Nuwa has spoken, how dare Ye Xuan disobey?”
Ye Xuan gradually cald himself. He would not give Nuwa a chance to kill him, for his Undying True Spirit trembled, reminding him that Nuwa had already harbored the intent to kill.
Ye Xuan’s intuition was terrifyingly sharp. Nuwa might appear serene and silent, but Ye Xuan could fully sense the barely perceptible murderous intent. He was utterly certain that if he dared to refuse, in the next mont, he would die by her hand.
Ye Xuan desperately wanted to kill Taiyi and Emperor Jun, but now he absolutely could not do so. Killing them was a minor issue – giving Nuwa a chance to act would an his utter doom.
It wasn’t that Ye Xuan didn’t want to resist or that he chose to compromise out of cowardice; it was simply that he had no power to oppose Nuwa, not even the slightest chance of victory.
There were beings in Heaven and Earth capable of checking Nuwa, the other five Great Saints, all stronger than her. Yet, they were all as siblings to one another. Furthermore, from the Primordial Beginning to the present, Nuwa has never joined the conflicts among Saints, maintaining the most harmonious relationship among the six. How could the others possibly offend her?
Beyond these five Great Saints, Ye Xuan thought of soone – a person who had once saved his life, soone who might be his Future Body, even Nuwa had been extrely wary of this person.
He reversed the River of Ti, shattered the ancient and modern worlds, a being so powerful that even Saints felt fearful. However, Ye Xuan dared not gamble, for that person, who might have been his Future Body, had said that he was rely rectifying past regrets, not truly living in this era.
It was as if that person harbored certain fears, isolated and desolate, his entire being exuded an air of sorrow. He told Ye Xuan that the one living in this era was him, and changing the future could only be done by Ye Xuan.
Ti travel was the most mysterious and unpredictable of feats, and reversing the River of Ti was certainly not so simple. Ye Xuan deeply understood this truth.
“If the person resembling his future self were that powerful, he could have slain Nuwa in the Nuwa Palace years ago, sweeping away all his formidable enemies, and there would not be so many troubles today.
Clearly, that person couldn’t act at will; reversing the River of Ti must have co at a huge cost, and if Ye Xuan were truly to rely on the appearance of his future self, that would certainly not be the outco Ye Xuan desired.
He couldn’t afford to gamble, he simply couldn’t afford to; using his own life as a stake, such a thod of leaving fate in another’s hands was sothing Ye Xuan could never do.
Whether it be retreat or cowardice, Ye Xuan could only choose to be patient, for only by enduring today’s events, when he beca a Saint in the future, would he surely flay Nuwa a thousand tis over, to settle today’s enormous sha and humiliation.
Buzz!
The Heavenly Punishnt Halberd moved away from the two Great Demon Emperors, and Ye Xuan took a deep look at the two Great Demon Emperors. Amid their mocking gazes, Ye Xuan suddenly turned and started to return to the Thirty-Three Layered Heaven.
“Wait!”
Suddenly, before Ye Xuan could take three steps, Nuwa’s cool voice rang out again, causing Ye Xuan’s eyes to slightly narrow, and his footsteps halted, yet he did not turn back.
“May I ask what else Nuwa would like?” Ye Xuan said in a deep voice, but his eyes were swirling with blood-red color, clearly suppressing a raging fury within his heart.
“Do you have the seventh Hongng Purple Qi?” Nuwa’s voice was clear and cold, which seed to inquire Ye Xuan, but also conveyed a sense of supremacy.
Hiss!
Sounds of sharp breaths being taken in echoed around, as all eyes focused on Ye Xuan, and the various Quasi-Saints looked on with fervent gazes. Being a question from a Saint, if Ye Xuan dared to lie, the Saints’ perception would surely detect it.
The Hongng Purple Qi was of great significance, and even more so as it pertained to the ergence of the seventh Heavenly Determined Saint—how could it not capture everyone’s attention?
“So what if it is, and what if it isn’t?”
Even a clay figure has three points of anger, let alone a fierce character like Ye Xuan?
Ye Xuan slowly turned around to look at Nuwa, his eyes incredibly dark, and a flash of insight crossed his gaze.
Nuwa intended to strike at him!
A simple sentence made clear the situation at the mont. Ye Xuan definitely was not mistaken. Even though he had spared the lives of the two Great Demon Emperors, Nuwa was still pushing her advantage, looking for an excuse to trouble him.
“If the Hongng Purple Qi is in your hands, then hand it over to . If it’s not, then pretend I never ntioned it,” Nuwa said with authority.
“It’s not.”
Ye Xuan’s face was extrely sullen, yet he could only suppress the towering rage within him, giving Nuwa an answer that seed neither fully true nor fully false.
At that mont, the Hongng Purple Qi was indeed not in Ye Xuan’s hands, for Minghe Ancestor had already retreated from battle, taking the Hongng Purple Qi back to the Netherworld Blood Sea, so Ye Xuan had not spoken a lie.
