Chapter 2798: You Guessed It!

Wherever the human race dwells, life thrives everywhere; things crafted by human hands are worthy of being called sentient, and the demon race would surely harbor resentment—this very resentment led to the forging of the Demon-Slaying Sword.

As Yingzhao said, forging the Demon-Slaying Sword is merely an excuse, a hollow pretense.

Whether the Demon-Slaying Sword can actually slay the witch race remains unproven, but the demon race has already offended the human race by attempting to forge it.

Though the human race possesses weak magic power, they are exceptionally clever and possess extraordinary hands-on ability.

The demon race was able to quickly reach parity with the witch race, even subtly surpassing them, thanks to past human assistance—but what if the humans withdraw their aid?

"What a foolish move the demon race has made!"

"Whether it's a foolish move or a fake one, we must stop them!"

"Yes, exactly!"

Feilian and Jimeng never imagined that merely visiting Nüwa's Palace would cause them to miss so much—they would return to find an entirely different reality.

Especially Feilian!

He had already harbored doubts; now those doubts grew even stronger.

Inside Nüwa's Palace.

Inside the palace, Fuxi paced like an ant on a hot pan; they could sense the emergence of the Chaos Bagua Tower, for Fuxi's Bagua resonated faintly with the Chaos Bagua Tower.

Nüwa, however, was not in a hurry—she sipped tea leisurely and gazed at the scenery.

"Little sister, why aren't you worried now? Is it a good thing if the witch race has seized the Chaos Bagua Tower?"

Fuxi was nearly on fire with anxiety; seeing Nüwa's calmness, he grew angry and couldn't help but speak.

Nüwa smiled and said, "Big brother, it's extremely difficult for the witch race to claim the Chaos Bagua Tower—it has been sealed within Penglai Immortal Island for over a thousand years."

"Even if Tianwu and Wengzi happened to retrieve it, it will not recognize them as its master."

"If Tianwu and Wengzi try to forcibly make the Chaos Bagua Tower acknowledge them as master, they will surely suffer backlash. Just wait—you'll see, our demon race isn't this foolish!"

Fuxi immediately understood—if this were true, then everything made sense.

Moreover, Donghuang Taiyi and Di Jun had gathered the demon race, yet showed no urgency—so Donghuang Taiyi and Di Jun must already know about this.

Nüwa added again, "We need not concern ourselves with Penglai Immortal Island—it's none of our business—but Feilian and Jiemeng coming here daily is no good."

"We've already said we won't interfere in demon race affairs, yet Feilian and Jiemeng keep coming—there must be some hidden agenda."

Fuxi did admire the two of them—their persistence was remarkable—but Nüwa had seen through their intentions from the start and gave them not the slightest opening.
