Chapter 452: Nuwa
Nuwa's appearance here was something the four Saints had not expected.
Especially seeing Nuwa with nine-colored rings of light circling her body.
Behind her, the light of creation raged, evolving into many terrifying phenomena.
The four Saints had different expressions.
Taishang Laojun frowned slightly, a flash of gravity in his eyes; Nuwa seemed to be more powerful than before.
Yuanshi Tianzun's eyes also revealed something unusual; he did not understand why Nuwa had improved so rapidly.
The pupils of Jieyin and Zhunti suddenly shrank, their eyes full of astonishment, their hearts filled with immense jealousy.
Nuwa's comprehension of her own laws had actually reached such a level.
Recovering from the astonishing changes in Nuwa, Yuanshi Tianzun was the first to break the silence.
His expression was cold, his voice carrying a bit of majesty.
"Nuwa, the matter of the Investiture of the Gods is a matter of the three sects; do you intend to meddle in it?"
Hearing Yuanshi Tianzun's words, Jieyin and Zhunti woke up as if from a dream, remembering that the Investiture of the Gods Great Calamity concerned the rise of the Western Sect and could not afford any mistakes.
Immediately, the two hurriedly echoed Yuanshi Tianzun's words.
Jieyin Daoist put his hands together and spoke slowly: "Nuwa, Senior Brother Yuanshi is right; this is a matter of the three sects, and I hope you will not intervene."
Zhunti Daoist nodded gently and sighed: "Nuwa, there is no benefit for you in meddling in this matter; why bother?"
Nuwa's expression was indifferent, the holy light flowing around her.
And Gu Xiu stood calmly by Nuwa's side.
Gu Xiu had no intention of interjecting in such a grand scene.
He wanted to see how Nuwa would handle it; he just needed to hold onto her thigh.
Hearing the words of Jieyin and Zhunti, Nuwa gave a cold laugh.
She ignored them and fixed her gaze on Yuanshi Tianzun.
"Yuanshi Tianzun, since it is a matter of the three sects, then why are Jieyin and Zhunti participating?"
Not expecting Nuwa to hit the nail on the head as soon as she spoke.
Yuanshi Tianzun's expression stalled, and he snorted coldly: "The matter of the Investiture of the Gods concerns the operation of the Heavenly Dao. Fellow Daoists Jieyin and Zhunti coming to help is in accordance with the heavenly numbers, assisting us in settling the great matter of the Investiture of the Gods; there is nothing inappropriate about it."
Jieyin Daoist put his hands together, a compassionate smile on his face: "Nuwa, Senior Brother Yuanshi is right. Although my Western Sect is located in the western corner, we also care about the common people of the world. Participating in the Investiture of the Gods this time is only to guide those with affinity, promote our Western teachings, and add a sense of peace and harmony to the world; this is a matter of great merit."
Zhunti Daoist grinned and added: "Nuwa, you have not established a sect, so you should stay out of it. Why get caught up in this Investiture of the Gods dispute for no reason and damage your reputation as a Saint?"
Nuwa sneered in her heart.
If she hadn't known that the four Saints had plotted against her before, wanting her to punish Di Xin and start the Investiture of the Gods dispute, she might have believed them.
"Hmph, it sounds nice, but Jieyin and Zhunti, you two participating in the Investiture of the Gods, whether it is for the sake of all living beings or if you have other schemes, I fear you know best in your own hearts. We are all Saints; I believe I don't need to make it too clear, do I?"
Jieyin Daoist's face changed slightly.
He looked at Zhunti, his face revealing embarrassment.
"Fellow Daoist Nuwa, why do you say that? My Western Sect has always taken compassion as our duty and the salvation of all living beings as our responsibility. Participating in the Investiture of the Gods this time is indeed in accordance with the heavenly numbers, but the Investiture of the Gods is, after all, a matter of the three sects. My Junior Brother and I are outsiders, so it is not appropriate to discuss this matter. If you have any doubts, please ask Senior Brother Taishang and Senior Brother Yuanshi."
Jieyin Daoist directly threw the blame onto Taishang Laojun and Yuanshi Tianzun.
Yuanshi Tianzun frowned, very dissatisfied with Jieyin and Zhunti's method of diverting the trouble.
But since the Investiture of the Gods was presided over by his Chan Sect, he could not avoid it, so he spoke up.
"Nuwa, do you really want to intervene in this matter? To stand on Tong Tian's side?"
Nuwa's expression was calm, yet carried an unquestionable majesty.
"I, Nuwa, act only according to my own heart, not standing on anyone's side. The Investiture of the Gods Great Calamity shakes the universe and affects all spirits of the Primordial. The affairs of the human race should be decided by the human race itself. The Chan Sect should not let the human world fall into war and suffering just to complete the Investiture of the Gods. The Kongtong Seal has appeared in the world, and the return of the Human Emperor is the heavenly number. The Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors in the Fire Cloud Cave are enough; you should not imprison Di Xin in the Fire Cloud Cave any longer."
Taishang Laojun saw this and frowned slightly.
"Nuwa, the matter of the Investiture of the Gods concerns the operation of the Heavenly Dao. We should prioritize the big picture; sometimes it is necessary to abandon some things." ===== CHAPTER 453 =====
