Chapter 562

Hongjun remained silent.

Laozi and Yuanshi stood on either side of Daoist Ancestor Hongjun.

"Master, we cannot let Lin Xia act like this!"

Yuanshi said urgently.

Beside him, Laozi also spoke up immediately.

"Indeed, the human race is the protagonist of Heaven and Earth."

"If all eight positions of the Human Sages fall into Lin Xia's hands,"

"then the Ren Sect will grow even stronger."

"By then, Lin Xia will surely become even more arrogant!"

Laozi did not hide his concern.

The Ren Sect was becoming increasingly uncontrollable, causing the Heavenly Secrets to be in chaos.

The development of the Xun and Chan Sects was also stagnating.

Hearing the two Sages' words, Hongjun did not respond, remaining silent.

After a long while, he sighed:

"Lin Xia, you must know to leave a path for others in all things!"

Hongjun switched to a rather gentle tone, as if discussing the matter with Lin Xia.

Clearly, knowing that hard-line tactics were useless, Hongjun had turned to a policy of soft persuasion.

Yet, Lin Xia remained unmoved.

"No need for more words!"

"Regarding the positions of the Human Sages, I will never allow any outsider to interfere!"

"If you are not convinced, we can fight."

Lin Xia looked directly at Hongjun and the other two Sages, his words extremely firm.

The importance of the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors was self-evident.

Such important positions must naturally be kept in his own hands to avoid any variables.

Moreover, Nüwa had long since left the Xuan Sect.

The human race had severed all ties with the Xuan Sect and had stepped onto its own path.

For the Human Dao to rise and stand in opposition to the Heavenly Dao was an unavoidable matter.

So at this moment, Lin Xia had no need for any concession.

Hearing Lin Xia's words, Nüwa also echoed with a solemn expression:

"Indeed!"

"My human race has long since had no relationship with the Xuan Sect; therefore, the positions of the Human Sages can never be yielded to any outsider."

Perhaps if Hongjun had adopted a gentle attitude from the start, Nüwa, out of regard for their old master-disciple relationship, might have considered it.

However, now that Hongjun had dared to strike out brazenly to suppress Lin Xia,

Nüwa naturally could not show any more restraint.

Lin Xia was her reverse scale, which no one could touch.

In Nüwa's eyes, the Heavenly Dao and the Xuan Sect had already become like enemies.

Seeing that both Lin Xia and Nüwa were so firm, Hongjun and the others felt even heavier in their hearts.

"Hmph, we shall see if you can hold onto the positions of the Human Sages!"

Hongjun let out a cold snort and then turned and left.

The implication was very clear: Hongjun would still not give up on plotting this matter.

The open and secret struggles between the two sides would never stop here.

Hongjun did not rashly ignite a war.

The reason was simple: although Houtu had not appeared directly at this moment,

if a war between the Sages were to break out again, she would inevitably come to assist Lin Xia.

In the end, as the situation worsened, it might even ignite a war between Heaven and Earth.

Seeing Hongjun turn and leave without hesitation, Laozi and Yuanshi were also somewhat stunned.

Although the two Sages were extremely unwilling, they were helpless and glared at Lin Xia with resentment before returning to their respective dojos.

"After this incident, I imagine the Xun and Chan Sects will show some restraint!"

Beside Lin Xia, looking at the devastated Mount Kunlun with blood rain falling, Nüwa said this.

In her view, Lin Xia had terrified the Chan Sect today.

The latter would not dare to make any small moves again.

Hearing this, Lin Xia smiled lightly.

"Perhaps..."

Although he said this, Lin Xia knew it would not end so easily.

The current Xun and Chan Sects were already showing signs of being desperate.

Today's battle had temporarily deterred the Xun and Chan Sects and forced back Daoist Ancestor Hongjun.

But they might become even more insane.

Yet Lin Xia felt no fear at all.

When soldiers come, block them; when water comes, cover it with earth!

Although there would be setbacks, Lin Xia knew that as long as he could hold on,

the human race would reach a brand new height.

Fortune is what disaster leans upon; disaster is what fortune hides in!

Lin Xia did not continue to strike at the Chan Sect.

Today's goal had already been achieved.

If he continued to slaughter Chan Sect disciples, Yuanshi would truly go berserk.

This was not yet the time to completely tear off the masks and ignite a war between Heaven and Earth.

This matter finally came to an end!

All living beings watched the Sages retreat with shock and awe, their thoughts varying.

"To think that just because of Fuxi's reincarnation, such an earth-shattering scene was caused today!"

A great power sighed.

Through the dialogue between Hongjun, Nüwa, and the others, they had already learned that the human infant was indeed Fuxi's reincarnation.

"Fuxi was born in response to the times; he must possess immense fortune and will become a great sage of the human race."

"From now on, the human race will likely become even more prosperous."

A great power said with a sigh.

This matter was actually a game of chess between the Sages.

They were competing for the position of Human Emperor Sage.

In the end, Lin Xia won, which would inevitably bring immense benefits to the human race.

After some discussion, the many great powers dispersed one after another.
