On one hand, Little Qing had given up on them. On the other hand, it was Ancestor Mu's plan. He clearly had the opportunity to take them down, but Ancestor Mu had no intention of doing so. Xiao Chen didn't know what Ancestor Mu was thinking.
After ending the call with Lin Yun, Xiao Chen smiled bitterly. Things had come to this point in the end. There was indeed a rift between him and Little Qing, and this rift was expanding as time passed.
He didn't know how it would develop in the end. Perhaps in Little Qing's eyes, Xiao Chen was already a stumbling block.
"In the end, it's still a struggle for power. In the face of power, all living beings are just chess pieces that can be used at will. The Primogenitors are like that, and so are the Spirits of Heaven and Earth."
In the eyes of the Primogenitors and Little Qing, all living beings were chess pieces that could be used. It was just a matter of whether they were useful or not. At this moment, Xiao Chen's opposition was a hindrance to Little Qing.
It was also because of this hindrance that the relationship between Xiao Chen and Little Qing took a turn for the worse. Just as Ancestor Mu had said at the beginning, the relationship between Xiao Chen and Little Qing was unstable. Both sides had their own thoughts, and it was easy for cracks to appear.
The current situation was indeed as Ancestor Mu had said, but Xiao Chen couldn't do anything about it.
Looking at Xiao Chen who was deep in thought, Dongfang Yun said, "What do we do now? I don't think we can count on the Land of Creation. "
Dongfang Yun also understood the current situation very well. It was almost impossible to get Little Qing's help now unless Xiao Chen was willing to lower his head. However, could Xiao Chen do that? If he could, Xiao Chen probably wouldn't be Xiao Chen.
Upon hearing Dongfang Yun's words, Xiao Chen shook his head. "Let's take it one step at a time. It doesn't matter even if we have to fight to the death."
Xiao Chen was prepared to fight to the death. In addition, Xiao Chen was still considering another problem. Xiao Yao, Xiao Lao, Xiao Luan, Xiao Qing, and Bai Ruyue were all in the Land of Creation.
The place of creation should have been the safest place. After all, the progenitors couldn't easily invade the place. Therefore, after the battle began, Xiao Chen left his family in the place to protect them.
But now, with his relationship with Little Qing, was the place of creation still safe? If there really came a day when he and Little Qing completely broke up, would Little Qing do something harmful to his family?
He absolutely could not let anything happen to his family. This was what Xiao Chen was most worried about. Moreover, if Xiaoqing used his family to threaten him, what could he do?
Xiao Chen was considering whether or not he should bring his family to his side. However, staying by his side did not necessarily mean that they would be safe.
For a moment, Xiao Chen was a little conflicted. He felt as if he was sandwiched between two big rocks.
On one side was the World Spirit, Little Qing, and on the other side were the progenitors. Xiao Chen and the others felt as if they were sandwiched between these two behemoths. They didn't know how to choose at all. Moreover, they didn't have the slightest authority to decide. They could only go with the flow. Xiao Chen didn't like this feeling very much.
He couldn't decide anything at all, let alone do anything for the people in the world.
He lowered his head in silence. On the other side, in the Origin World's encampment, Chen Yan also said to Ancestor Mu, "The Land of Creation hasn't made any movements. Moreover, the old tree is said to have returned to the Land of Creation. Now is the best opportunity to annihilate Xiao Chen and the others. Why haven't we made a move yet?"
The changes on Xiao Chen's side naturally couldn't be hidden from Chen Yan. Since the Land of Creation hadn't made any movements and the old tree had left, it was obviously the best opportunity to annihilate Xiao Chen and the others in one fell swoop. Therefore, Chen Yan couldn't help but persuade Ancestor Mu to make a move.
In response to Chen Yan's persuasion, Ancestor Mu smiled and said, "Then why do you think the Land of Creation hasn't made any moves yet?"
"This …" Patriarch Mu didn't answer and instead asked. Chen Yan didn't know why the Land of Creation didn't take any action at all.
From the beginning, Chen Yan had been thinking of annihilating Xiao Chen and the others in one fell swoop. This way, he would be able to take down the Nether Child Universe. When the time came, he would be able to attack the root of the problem and open the door to the Land of Creation.
However, it was apparent that Ancestor Mu had different thoughts from Chen Yan. Seeing that Chen Yan didn't know how to answer, Ancestor Mu said plainly.
"What do you think is the point of taking down Xiao Chen? It's better to keep him alive and cause some trouble for the World Spirit instead of killing him. "
Through various signs, Ancestor Mu had already guessed something. In other words, Ancestor Mu knew what Little Qing would choose when she entered the Origin World.
Although they hadn't seen Little Qing for many years, the Primogenitors still understood her character very well. Given Little Qing's character, she would definitely make the same choice after knowing that the Origin World had the method to resurrect from the dead.
After all, Little Qing had to master such a method if she wanted to compete with the Origin World. However, there was a crucial problem in mastering such a method. She had to erase the seven emotions and six desires of the cultivator just like the Origin World.
Little Qing definitely wouldn't care about this. She just wanted to defeat the Primogenitors. However, what about Xiao Chen? Would Xiao Chen agree? If Little Qing really had such a thought, Xiao Chen would definitely oppose it. Given Little Qing's character, she would definitely be dissatisfied.
So, the current situation clearly showed that there was a gap between Xiao Chen and Little Qing. The source of this gap was probably because Little Qing wanted to master the method to resurrect from the dead just like in the Origin World.
Needless to say, Ancestor Mu's guess wasn't wrong. It was exactly because of this that Ancestor Mu didn't seize this opportunity to annihilate Xiao Chen and the others. Because in Ancestor Mu's opinion, even if he killed Xiao Chen, it wouldn't be significant. It could even be said that Little Qing was using the Origin World to eliminate Xiao Chen.
Otherwise, how could Little Qing not make a move until now? She probably wished for nothing more than for Xiao Chen to be killed by him.
In this way, it was even more impossible for Ancestor Mu to let Little Qing do as she wished. Since Little Qing wanted Xiao Chen to die, then Ancestor Mu wouldn't kill her and let Xiao Chen live. Based on the current situation, the relationship between them would break completely sooner or later. At that time, Xiao Chen would be Little Qing's enemy.
Although Ancestor Mu wasn't sure if Xiao Chen would side with the Origin World or if he would still be the Origin World's enemy, Xiao Chen would still be Little Qing's enemy when the time came. In this way, keeping Xiao Chen alive was obviously more useful than killing him. It was exactly because of this that Ancestor Mu didn't really intend to attack Xiao Chen.
