This rumor wasn't entirely untrue; the demons who had eaten humans did indeed experience a significant increase in their cultivation levels. This remarkable effect led to a surge of attacks on human territories by numerous demons. Within just a few decades, nearly ten million humans were forced to scatter and flee for their lives, leaving only a few hundred thousand struggling to survive, hiding in various places.

They pleaded with Nuwa, cried out to Hongyun, and begged the one who created and taught them to save them.

Hongyun didn't know what Nuwa was like, but she herself couldn't shake the voices of the human race from her ears.

They could isolate themselves, but they didn't want to deceive themselves; the sound didn't simply disappear if they didn't listen.

Hongyun cannot intervene, because this is the inevitable trend of the primordial world, the will of Heaven.

Whenever Hongyun tried to intervene, Hongjun would stop him with a telepathic message, which made Hongyun resentful towards the Heavenly Dao and Hongjun. The human race was a race born under their will, so why should they make the human race suffer such a great calamity?

"You can send a telepathic message to Taiyi; he might understand things better than Dijun," Zhen Yuanzi suggested, seeing Hongyun's furrowed brows for days.

Hongyun remained noncommittal, but did as Zhen Yuanzi instructed. Regardless of success or failure, she would give it a try; this was the only thing Hongyun could do for the human race.

Shortly after the telepathic message was sent, the sounds of fierce fighting came from Mount Sumeru in the west. Zhen Yuanzi calculated with his fingers and suddenly looked at Hongyun: "Go to Mount Sumeru quickly and help Zhunti intercept and kill Taiyi."

Hongyun and Zhen Yuanzi strode out together, breaking through the void and heading straight for Mount Sumeru.

Taiyi was already severely injured, with one of his wings broken off. Lying on his back on the ground, he shouted, "Even if I die, I will never let the Primordial Purple Qi fall into the hands of a villain like you! My brother will not let you go, and the demon race will not let you go!"

Zhunti's face was sinister: "In front of a sage, do you think you have the ability to self-destruct?"

Hongyun and Zhen Yuanzi appeared before Taiyi: "Do you think you still have the right to be arrogant in front of a sage?"

"Is it because I've let you go time and time again that you've come to think of yourself as an immortal saint? My previous reluctance to kill someone as despicable, vile, and shameless as you has only emboldened you further!"

Before Hongyun could finish speaking, she flicked her sleeve and unleashed a palm strike.

Zhunti was terrified. If Jieyin hadn't blocked the attack for him, his injuries would have been no less severe than Taiyi's.

Jieyin said, "Hongyun, my brother and I have already stopped provoking Wuzhuang Temple, so why do you have to meddle in our business!"

Hongyun smiled faintly and asked, "Why do you want Taiyi's Primordial Purple Qi?"

Everyone knows that Jieyin wants Zhunti to become a saint in order to increase his strength and contend with Wuzhuang Temple and Kunlun Mountain. So, it is even more reasonable for Hongyun to eliminate this great threat.

Knowing they were no match, Jieyin simply raised a banner: "Heaven's will is our destiny; the West shall rise. Do you intend to defy Heaven's will?"

Zhen Yuanzi snorted coldly: "If Heaven has its will, why didn't the Dao Ancestor give any instructions? Why is it that among the Heavenly Dao Saints, only you, the Western Saint, know this?"

I think you're just using the name of Heaven to deceive others!

"You, how dare you disrespect the Heavenly Way!" Zhunti, hiding behind Jieyin, pointed at Hongyun and Zhenyuanzi.

If it weren't for the fear on his face, those words would have sounded quite accusatory.

Hongyun and Zhen Yuanzi exchanged a glance and attacked simultaneously.

Zhen Yuanzi attacked Jieyin, while Hongyun set her sights on Zhunti.

"Zhen Yuanzi, you mustn't... Junior Brother!"

Jieyin was restrained by Zhenyuanzi, and before he could even shout out his words, Zhunti's heart and lungs had already been shattered by Hongyun.
