Laozi, the Great Supreme Being

Chapter 174 The Witch-Slaying Sword Appears and the Man Behind the Scenes
  Zixiao Palace!
  After hearing the order from Taoist Ancestor Hongjun, the saints came to Zixiao Palace in just a few breaths.

As soon as they entered the main hall of Zixiao Palace, the saints were stunned. The reason was because the saints saw a person, a person who shouldn't be here!

I saw seven futons placed under the high platform in the distance, and on the far right of the futons, sat the ancestral witch Houtu!

Although Houtu has become a saint, he has not yet left the body of the ancestral witch, so there is nothing wrong with calling Houtu the ancestral witch Houtu!
  "What's going on? Why is Houtu here?"

Seeing Hou Tu sitting on the seventh futon, all the saints were filled with doubts!

Wasn't Hou Tu ordered by Dao Patriarch Hongjun not to leave within three calamities? Why are you here?

After pondering for a moment, the saints thought of the reason!
  Apart from Hongjun, the saints could not think of a second candidate who could get Hou Tu here!
  After walking forward and greeting Houtu, all the saints sat on their own futons!

As the saints sat down, a moment later, a white light flashed, and then Hongjun appeared in front of the saints!

Seeing Hongjun who suddenly appeared in front of them, all the saints were shocked!

Before, when they were still quasi-sages, they could not see the trajectory of Hongjun's actions. Now that they have become saints, they still could not see the trajectory of Hongjun's actions. This made the saints secretly sigh in their hearts at the horror of Hongjun's strength. !
  Of course, not everyone failed to notice that when Hongjun appeared, an imperceptible glint flashed in Tang Feng's eyes!

Regarding Hongjun's appearance, Tang Feng noticed a trace of mana fluctuation. Although there was only a trace, it also gave Tang Feng hope!
  Tang Feng is now only a fourth-level saint, and is still far away from entering the realm of heaven. Originally, Tang Feng thought that Hongjun had entered the realm of heaven after joining the realm, but now it seems that Hongjun did not imagine that. So terrifying!
  At least, for Tang Feng now, Hongjun is just a few realms higher than him, so he is not that unreachable!
  Hongjun appeared, and all the saints naturally knelt down and saluted, saying respectfully: "We have met the teacher. May the teacher have a long life and be immortal!"

"Get up later!" Hongjun nodded with satisfaction and said!

"Yes!" Then all the saints stood up!
  "The purpose of summoning you here is to announce two things! One is that the Lich has declined. From now on, the human race will rise and take charge of the wild land instead of the Lich race!"

Hongjun looked at the saints and said without caring about the sad expressions on Nuwa and Houtu's faces! Hearing what Hongjun said, the saints were overjoyed!
  Especially Jie Yin and Zhunti. Their Western religion has been silent for too long. Now it is finally time for the rise of the human race. Similarly, with the rise of the human race, their Western religion will also flourish. Therefore, Jie Yin Zhunti is naturally very happy!

After glancing lightly to welcome Zhunti, Hongjun continued: "The human race is greatly prosperous. When you return, you can order your disciples to go down the mountain to preach and educate the human race. Do you understand?"

"Yes, we will follow the teacher's teachings!" All the saints responded quickly!
  Now that it is known that the human race is about to prosper, it is naturally impossible for the saints to miss the opportunity to preach!

Except for Nuwa and Houtu, the remaining saints were very happy!
  As for Nuwa and Houtu, they looked at each other and saw a hint of sadness in each other's eyes!
  I remember that the two Lich clans never paid much attention to the human race, but who would have imagined that as things changed, the human race turned over and became the emperor. How could this make Empress Nuwa willing?
  But there is no way, destiny cannot be violated, and now the Lich's defeat is certain. For this reason, Nuwa and Houtu can only remain silent and express their agreement with Hongjun's words!
  After pondering for a moment, seeing that all the saints did not speak, Hongjun stretched out his hand and in an instant, a gleaming golden sword appeared in front of the saints!

"Is this the witch-slaying sword?"

Yuan Shi looked at the sword in Hongjun's hand and wondered curiously!
  "Yes, this is the witch-slaying sword. However, the hostility on it has been wiped away by my master with great magic power. I, as the leader of the human sect, you have the luck of three human beings. This treasure should be yours." Take control!”

With that said, Hongjun tossed it gently, and the Witch-Slaying Sword turned into a golden light and flew in front of Tang Feng!

"Thank you teacher!"

Tang Feng thanked him and put away the Witch-Slaying Sword!

When the Witch-Slaying Sword disappeared just now, Tang Feng noticed a special mana fluctuation. This kind of mana fluctuation Tang Feng had never seen before. Except for the saints, Tang Feng placed the target of suspicion on Hongjun!

And the situation was indeed as Tang Feng expected, it was Hongjun who took away the Witch-Slaying Sword!

As for why Hongjun took away the Witch-Slaying Sword and returned it now, Tang Feng couldn't figure it out!
