Honghuang: The Golden Crow Emperor, starts by robbing the Three Pure Ones

Chapter 442: Only victory and defeat, no good or evil
"You, whether it is the Chaos or the Primordial Desolation, the law of the jungle is the only law of survival. If you want to survive and live well, you must fight."

"Like the three golden crows, if they don't fight, they will become slaves controlled by Hongjun, or die."

"Hongjun is already the strongest in the prehistoric world, but he is still afraid that others will surpass him. He must fight and plunder as much prehistoric luck as possible for his own use to ensure that he is always the strongest."

"If the Three Golden Crows don't fight, they will be killed by Hongjun. And if Hongjun doesn't fight, when the Three Golden Crows' cultivation exceeds his, he will be killed by the Three Golden Crows. Not fighting is just waiting to die."

"Mother can protect you for a while, but not for your whole life. Moreover, after you break through to Quasi-Sage, luck will be crucial. Without luck, your cultivation will improve much more slowly. Mother also needs luck so that she will not fall behind and can always protect you. So we have to fight for it."

"If all the good talents in the prehistoric world had not been divided up, mother would have established her own sect long ago."

Houba patiently taught her daughter that if she didn't want to be bullied, she must fight. This is the way the world is. If you don't have enough strength, you can't be a free and unrestrained person, detached from the world.

Without her support, there would be no pure land of the Kingdom of Women.

"I understand now. Strength is the bottom line. Without strength, nothing can be accomplished. We can only depend on others. But how can we fight for it?" The queen nodded seriously. Her mother had already given so much for her. She couldn't always rely on her mother and let her mother suffer.

She wants to learn from Yang Jian, protect her mother and care for her mother. She has grown up and it is time for her to take on her own responsibilities.

"This has always been a headache for me, but now the opportunity has come. The Chan Sect thought that Ding Xiang's matter was kept secret, but they didn't expect that I could comprehend the law of fate and see the flaw."

"The Chan Sect wanted to use Ding Xiang to plot against the human race, or to be more precise, Hongjun. Hongjun merged with the Heavenly Dao, and someone was plotting against the Heavenly Court. He couldn't have been unaware of this, but he didn't care."

"Because he also wants to calculate the fate of the human race. Hongjun established Taoism. The three religions and the Heavenly Palace are all Taoists. Today, the Heavenly Palace is strong and is the orthodox of Taoism. The Chan Sect is declining and dispensable."

"If the plan succeeds, he will benefit as well. If the plan fails, he will just give up the Chan Sect. There won't be much loss, and the benefits are much greater than the cost. Of course, he is willing to watch and even help secretly."

"The Yuanshi went to Primal Chaos and hasn't returned yet. I'm afraid he is waiting for the outcome of this matter. He is in Primal Chaos. If this matter fails, the Three Golden Crows will definitely come after him. If he is not in Primal Chaos, he can completely push the responsibility away."

"If it works, we'll make a lot of money. If it doesn't, the loss won't be big either. They are all a bunch of conspirators. However, Ding Xiang is now my disciple, so I naturally have to get involved. Who wouldn't want the fortune of the human race, the protagonist of the prehistoric world?"

Houba's mouth corners raised.

Chuangzao is also an expert at plotting conspiracies. She has been following Chuangzao for endless years, so naturally she is not bad at it either.

“Isn’t this too bad? Does this count as backstabbing the Three Golden Crow Saints?” The queen felt a little embarrassed. After all, the Three Golden Crow Saints were in the same group as them, and it was immoral to backstab an ally.

"Haha, you have to remember that being too moral will not accomplish anything. Never be bound by morality. The so-called morality is nothing more than a tool used by the strong to restrain the weak."

"If a man does not work for himself, he will be punished by heaven and earth. He should work for himself first and then for others. It is better for the destiny of the human race to fall into my hands than to the Chan Sect or Hongjun."

"Even if I backstab them, they have nothing to say, because they need to join forces with me to fight against Hongjun. If I help them, they have to pay me. The reward I want is the luck of the human race, which is reasonable."

"Didn't they also plot against me and Hongjun last time?"

Houba smiled and shook his head. There are no good people in this ancient world. Everyone is just pursuing their own interests. No one should say anything about anyone else.

The queen snuggled in her mother's arms, not knowing what to say for a moment. Her three views were shattered. She had thought her mother was the kindest person, but it turned out not to be the case.

"When you judge good and evil based on good and evil, you lose. Standing on your own point of view is never wrong. Good and evil are determined by the winner. In this world, there is only winning and losing, not good and evil." "I admire Yuanshi very much. He has been fighting with the Three Golden Crows since he transformed. He has fought again and again after being defeated, but he never lost heart. It's a pity that he met the Three Golden Crows at the wrong time. Otherwise, Yuanshi's achievements would definitely not be low."

Houba once again said something that shattered the queen's three views.

But he didn't know that Laozi was the most insidious one. Yuanshi was jumping around all the time, but he was actually just Laozi's pawn.

If it weren't for Laozi's guidance, Yuanshi would have given up on himself long ago. Laozi has been giving Yuanshi advice and letting Yuanshi implement it, while he hides behind the scenes. If it succeeds, he gets to reap the fruits, and if it fails, Yuanshi gets to carry the responsibility.

Including this incident, it was Laozi who instigated Yuanshi to do it. Taishang Laojun did not agree, but there was nothing he could do. He was just Laozi's clone. What he was protecting was not the Chan sect, but his helplessness towards the original body.

The three corpses have their own thoughts, but are controlled by the original body.

What Hongjun feared most was not the ruthless Nuwa, nor the sober Tongtian, but the insidious Laozi.

"Is it hard to accept now? You will understand these things when you experience more. Practice well. When you break through to the Quasi-Sage level, go out and gain some experience."

Houba pinched her daughter's pretty face with heartache. She didn't want her innocent daughter to be corrupted by these dirty darkness, but she knew better that excessive doting would only harm her daughter.

"Then why don't you tell Bajie the truth? Bajie is in so much pain." The queen said reluctantly.

"This is also a test for Bajie. Bajie is still too young and not smart enough. The more pain and hatred he feels, the more he will finally gain enlightenment."

"Bajie had been on such a smooth journey before this, lacking training. This is good for him, and the same goes for Chenxiang and the others. You would be harming them if you told them, and wasting Yang Jian's efforts."

Houba shook her head.

"I understand. Compared with Yang Jian, I suddenly feel that Bajie and the others are so stupid." The queen pouted playfully.

"Sometimes it's good to be a little stupid, it makes you less tired. Sanzang is pretty good too, at least he is responsible. If you want to marry someone, you have to marry someone who is responsible."

"If Sanzang had given up on you or given up on obtaining the scriptures and abandoning his responsibility, I would have killed him without hesitation."

Houba laughed.

"So, mother, you had been forcing my brother to give up his quest for the scriptures and stay in the Kingdom of Women, but in fact you were testing him?" The queen sat up and looked at her mother in shock.

"Well, I've suffered from men who were irresponsible, and I will never let you follow in my footsteps. The man you choose may not be outstanding, but he must be responsible enough."

"Sanzang dared to resist, and he was also responsible. He was ambitious, responsible, and had flesh and blood. His move to establish Datong Buddhism and to swindle Lingshan was even more brilliant. Mother was quite satisfied."

Houba smiled and nodded.

"Humph, mother, you even lied to me." The queen pouted unhappily, then smiled and kissed her mother on the face: "Thank you, mother, I know you are doing this for my own good."

Houba smiled with relief.
