Chapter 560

~3 min read 506 words

Xiao Mai: "Heaven and Earth: I heard you want equality with me?"

Su Xiao: "Heaven and Earth: What right do you have to seek equality with me?"

Ye Hei: "It seems that when reading this line, it's easy to forget Heaven and Earth."

Han Paopao: "No, we haven't forgotten Heaven and Earth in this sentence—we've unconsciously cast ourselves as the lofty role of Heaven and Earth."

Zhang Sanfeng: "Han Tianzun is right. Many people cast themselves as Heaven and Earth, then assume this line speaks of equality among all things. But in truth—we are all beneath Heaven and Earth!"

Wang Chao: "I thought of this exact problem many years ago. The wisdom of the ancients is terrifying!"

Lin Daiyu: "People easily overlook the role of Heaven and Earth for another reason—they don't know what 'chú gǒu' means."

Ye Hei: "Isn't it just a puppy?"

Hu Yifei: "Er… no. Here, 'chú' doesn't mean 'young' or 'juvenile'—it means 'grass.'"

Lin Daiyu: "Hu Young Lady is correct. 'Chú gǒu' means 'grass dog.' And this 'grass dog' isn't the ordinary dog people imagine—like a local mutt. It's a dog made of bamboo and grass, used to replace live dogs in sacrifices, akin to the relationship between pottery figurines and human sacrifice in burials. I don't know if your era still has such sacrificial customs."

Lin Daiyu: "Before sacrifice, this grass dog is treated with great reverence; after sacrifice, it's discarded. In Master Fahai's world, gods, Buddhas, even the human race soon to be abandoned—all are like 'chú gǒu'!"

Lin Daiyu: "Before use, it is revered; after use, it is thrown away like a worn-out shoe. That's why I say: Heaven and Earth have no benevolence—they treat all things as 'chú gǒu.'"

Ye Hei: "I've learned. I see now—I haven't read carefully enough."

Su Xiao: "No wonder they call you Lin Meimei—you're truly clever and sharp."

Chan Chan: "Lin Young Lady is truly extraordinary. After joining this chat group, your future will surely become even more extraordinary."

Fahai: "If this is true, does that mean the human race has no choice but to abandon cultivation?"

Bai Suzhen: "If the human race renounces Wu Gong, what of the demonic races outside?"

Xiao Bai: "This… wouldn't the Heavenly Dao simply erase them? @Zhang Taixuan, my husband, don't the demonic races have destiny that interferes with the Heavenly Dao?"

Zhang Taixuan: "The demonic races' destiny? That's ancient history! Since they lost their position as the central beings of Heaven and Earth, their destiny has dwindled—Heaven and Earth no longer care."

Fahai: "If this is true, I must immediately contact all cultivators across the world and abolish current cultivation. Otherwise, if we drag the human race down with us, we will all be guilty!"

Ye Hei: "That's too cruel. Abolishing cultivation—many cultivators, due to their lifespans, will die on the spot."

Zhang Junbao: "They spent their entire lives fighting for the human race—and now they won't even die well?"

Yukinoshita Yuki: "Suddenly I feel heartbroken."

Zhang Sanfeng: "Dao Jun, is there truly no other way?"
