Primordial Era: When a Good Guy Awakens a Morally Unethical System

Who's destined to worry? Who cares about this and that?

Zhen Yuanzi was so angry he laughed. Hongyun's words were just... too cute!

Hongyun had assumed that once Kong Xuan left the mountain, he wouldn't return for hundreds of years, so he didn't ask anyone to keep track of his whereabouts. Unexpectedly, just over a year later, Zhen Yuanzi rushed into his room, interrupting his seclusion, because of Kong Xuan.

Hongyun was puzzled, wondering what could have made Zhen Yuanzi so anxious, when he heard Zhen Yuanzi say, "Kong Xuan is in trouble!"

Ignoring the prospect of Zhen Yuanzi making a fool of himself, Hongyun immediately asked three questions in quick succession: "What's wrong? Didn't he go to Heaven? Who dares to touch him?"

Zhen Yuanzi: "Guide!"

"He's courting death!" Hongyun roared in anger, flicking his long sleeves as he headed to Mount Sumeru in the west to settle scores.

Zhen Yuanzi quickly stopped Hongyun before he could finish speaking.

"It was someone from Heaven who came to deliver the message. Jieyin and Zhunti also went to Heaven to participate in the celebration. They picked out a lot of people and things that were destined to be associated with the West and wanted to take them away directly. Kong Xuan was among them."

To force Kong Xuan to submit, Jieyin attacked him, severely injuring him, who was later rescued by Dijun. Kong Xuan is now recuperating in Heaven, but no one can treat him, so he sent someone to Wuzhuang Temple for help.

After hearing Zhen Yuanzi recount the general events, Hongyun sensed something was amiss.

If Jieyin didn't know Kong Xuan's identity, wouldn't Dijun have told him? If Dijun had strictly enforced the rules regarding Kong Xuan's sect, Jieyin wouldn't have dared to harm Kong Xuan so severely.

If Di Jun was able to save Kong Xuan, why didn't he save him before he was seriously injured? He clearly used Kong Xuan to provoke Di Jun and Zhen Yuanzi's anger, so that they would deal with Jie Yin.

"What a brilliant plan!" Hongyun praised through gritted teeth.

Seeing that Hongyun had figured out the situation, Zhen Yuanzi was relieved: "I can't act casually once I leave Wuzhuang Temple. Please go and treat Kong Xuan."

Hongyun: "No need to stand on ceremony with me. I'll go to the Heavenly Court now and then make a trip to Mount Sumeru. Kong Xuan is your disciple, and also a child I've watched grow up. No one can harm him."

A ray of red light soared straight into the heavens.

Upon noticing Hongyun's arrival, Dijun personally led his subordinates out to greet him: "Fellow Daoist Hongyun, you've finally arrived!"

Hongyun snorted coldly: "Where is Kong Xuan?"

"This way, please!" Di Jun didn't say anything more and directly led the way for Hong Yun.

Kong Xuan sat pale-faced on a futon in the guest hall, surrounded by ten demon generals who were using their internal energy to heal his injuries.

The moment Hongyun saw Kong Xuan, her anger intensified. Her internal organs were almost shattered, showing how severe her injuries had been.

"Get out of the way!" Hongyun shouted coldly.

The ten demon generals quickly made way, and Hongyun personally cast a spell, using the power of a saint to repair Kong Xuan's internal organs.

Fortunately, Kong Xuan is the son of Yuan Feng, possessing Yuan Feng's essence and the fire of rebirth. With just a little guidance from Hong Yun, Kong Xuan was able to control the flow of spiritual energy on his own.

Seeing that Kong Xuan could recover on his own, Hongyun turned to Dijun.

How did Kong Xuan get injured?

Di Jun looked guilty: "Jieyin, relying on his status as a saint, insisted that many of my Heavenly Court's magical treasures and cultivators had a connection with the West, and even took a liking to Kong Xuan and wanted to take him as a disciple. Kong Xuan naturally refused, and after making a few sarcastic remarks to Jieyin, he was beaten like this."

Hongyun: "Where were you at that time?"

"With Xihe giving birth, I am truly overwhelmed!" Di Jun shook his head, as if he were genuinely blaming himself.

"Does that mean they only revealed Kong Xuan's identity to Jieyin? Did Jieyin still dare to attack after knowing Kong Xuan was Zhen Yuanzi's disciple?" Hongyun was skeptical of Dijun's words.
