River Styx was aware of this situation, which was why he trusted Mu Sen with the Kongtong Seal. Although Mu Sen was no match for the Sages, the Sages could not do anything to him because of Wu Zu's identity as a human. Besides, no one below the Sages could defeat Mu Sen, so the Kongtong Seal would naturally be in Mu Sen's hands.
Hongjun had merged with Tendo, so he naturally knew that the Kongtong Seal was the Supreme Treasure of the Human Emperor. Seeing that all the Sages already knew, he said, "If you want to establish the Human Emperor, the Supreme Treasure of the Human Emperor, the Kongtong Seal, is necessary. Therefore, you still need to discuss with River Styx."
River Styx's expression changed as soon as he heard Hongjun's words. How could Hongjun drag him out? He was not merged with Tendo, so Tendo should not interfere. River Styx had his own plans, but the Human Tribe would become stronger, and the Human Tribe would be the protagonist of the world in the future. When the Human Tribe became stronger, so would the Tendo.
River Styx raised his head and looked at Hongjun gloomily. He suddenly realized that Hongjun seemed to have left Tendo and returned to himself, just like when he gave the Bell of Chaos to Houtu last time. But in the blink of an eye, Hongjun returned to Tendo again. But this time, River Styx found something different.
The resentment of the Human Tribe. Yes, it was the resentment of the Human Tribe. River Styx had been wondering why Hongjun removed the resentment of the Human Tribe when he took away the Wu-killing Sword. Now it seemed that Hongjun had used the resentment of the Human Tribe to leave Tendo twice. The Human Tribe would be the protagonist of the world in the future, so their resentment would naturally interfere with Tendo. Hongjun must have used this opportunity to temporarily return to himself.
However, River Styx couldn't understand why Hongjun would do this. The first time, he changed Tendo's power and gave Houtu the Bell of Chaos that was supposed to be hidden from the world. The second time, he pointed the spearhead at River Styx. Now that Hongjun said this, Mu Sen's secret was most likely to be exposed. This caused a great disturbance to his plan.
Seeing that Hongjun had returned to his emotionless state, River Styx's expression turned ugly. Hongjun obviously had his own plans, but now that he connected the dots, Hongjun's plan was obviously targeted at him. However, although River Styx had his own plans, he was not the only one who benefited. If the Human Race became stronger, Tendo would naturally become stronger as well.
However, River Styx didn't have time to think so much now, because all the Saints were focused on him. Now that Hongjun suddenly said this, the Saints could naturally calculate the relationship between Mu Sen and River Styx.
Hongjun continued, "The matter of the Human Emperor cannot be delayed. You all should discuss it carefully." After saying this, he suddenly disappeared. The Saints didn't care. In comparison, the fact that Mu Sen was River Styx's self-reincarnation shocked them more. What a great ancestor of River Styx, what a shocking scheme. If Hongjun hadn't pointed it out today, all the Saints would have been toyed with by River Styx.
Facing the Saints' gazes, River Styx suddenly felt calm. If it was before, he might have been worried about his own gains and losses. However, now that he knew that there were other worlds in the Chaos, his horizons had been broadened. He didn't care about his gains and losses as much anymore.
Lao Tzu looked at River Styx with hatred in his heart. Originally, he only hated Mu Sen and hated him for reducing the Ren School's transcendent status in the Human Race. However, now that he knew that Mu Sen was River Styx's self-reincarnation, it must have been River Styx's idea. On this point, Lao Tzu had wrongly accused River Styx. This was completely Mu Sen's idea. However, since Mu Sen was River Styx's self-reincarnation, no one would believe him if River Styx said that it wasn't his idea.
Lao Tzu looked at River Styx and said coldly, "River Styx's Daoist Friend is really scheming. If Daozu hadn't pointed it out today, I'm afraid we would still be in the dark. I didn't expect that Daoist Friend was the one who saw the farthest and planted such an important chess piece in the Human Race."
River Styx smiled and said, "Daoist Friend, Lao Tzu, I didn't scheme against the Human Race. That's right, Wu Zu Mu Sen of the Human Race is indeed my self-reincarnation. However, it was severed when Daoist Friend Nüwa created the Human Race. It carried all of my obsession with the Human Race's body, but it didn't have a trace of my Primordial Spirit or mana. However, it was an actual Human Race. Back then, the Human Race was so weak, why would I need to scheme against them?"
When the Sages heard this, their expressions changed slightly. Indeed, when the Human Race was first born, River Styx severed the Self Reincarnation using the Human Race's obsession with the Human Race. After all, the Shaman and Demon Race were at the peak of their power at that time. However, what the Sages didn't understand was why River Styx would use the Human Race's body to sever the Self Reincarnation. However, they didn't ask. After all, this was River Styx's secret. Even if they asked, River Styx wouldn't answer.
Lao Tzu frowned and said, "Daoist Friend River Styx is really far-sighted. In that case, it's time for us to talk about the karma between us. Back then, you used the Self Reincarnation to weaken the Human Race's position in the Human Race and took away the destiny of the Human Race. It's time for you to repay this karma."
River Styx sneered and said, "Daoist Friend Lao Tzu, are you joking? How is there any karma between us? It's even more ridiculous to say that I took away the destiny of the Human Race. Don't forget, back then, when the Daoist Friend established the Human Race, he first took away the destiny of my Self Reincarnation in the Human Race. The cycle of karma is just my Self Reincarnation taking back what originally belonged to him. "
When River Styx said this, Lao Tzu's face immediately darkened. He had forgotten about this. Back then, when he established the Human Race, he took away ten percent of Mu Sen's destiny. At the same time, he also took away ten percent of Nüwa's destiny. In that case, River Styx did not owe him any karma. On the contrary, he owed Nüwa some karma.
Nüwa did not care about the conflict between River Styx and Lao Tzu. She also did not care about the position of the Human Sovereign's teacher. She only cared about the position of the Human Sovereign. The Human Sovereign's contribution to the Human Race's education would definitely be bestowed with the Human Sovereign's merit when it was completed. This was what she cared about the most.
Don't forget that Nüwa's Mountain River Map still contained the remnant soul of her brother, Fuxi. Although Nüwa tried her best to treat him, she did not know how long it would take for him to fully recover. Most importantly, Fuxi's remnant soul did not have a physical body. Even if his Primordial Spirit recovered, he did not have a physical body and could not be considered fully recovered.
However, the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors of the Human Race gave Nüwa hope. If Fuxi was reincarnated into the Human Race and became the Human Sovereign, not only would he be able to fully recover his cultivation, but he would also be able to use the Human Race's destiny to restore the Demon Race's destiny. When Fuxi returned to the Demon Race, the Demon Race would definitely be able to slowly prosper.
Thinking up to this point, Nüwa said, "Daoist Friend River Styx, you do not owe Senior Lao Tzu any karma. However, you used the Human Race that I created to sever my own corpse and occupied a large portion of the Human Race's destiny. Back then, you even took away my authority in the Human Race. Daoist Friend, you should repay this karma, right?"
River Styx nodded and said, "Indeed. I wonder how Nüwa Daoist Friend wants the Poor Way to repay this karma. Daoist Friend, feel free to tell me. As long as it is within my capabilities, the Poor Way will definitely not refuse." The karma that he owed Nüwa was real. As for how to repay it, River Styx naturally knew. Since Nüwa had spoken, it must be for the throne of the Human Emperor, as well as for her elder brother Fuxi.
Nüwa was naturally delighted when she heard this and said, "I'm not interested in being the Teacher of the Human Emperor. I want the throne of the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors. During the previous Cataclysm, my elder brother Fuxi suffered a calamity and only a remnant of his soul was left behind. Now that the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors are going to be established, my elder brother Fuxi will be the Human Emperor."
River Styx had already expected this, and the other Sages also understood. Nüwa and Fuxi were very close. Since Fuxi left behind a remnant of his soul, Nüwa must want to use the Human Emperor's Merits to help Fuxi recover completely. This was reasonable. Nüwa was also the Human Race's Holy Mother, and River Styx owed Nüwa karma. This was not a difficult matter, and the other Sages had no reason to object.
However, there was one thing that River Styx had to clarify in advance, "Daoist Friend Nüwa, I have no objections to Fuxi being the Human Emperor. However, there is one thing that I have to clarify in advance. Fuxi is the Demon Race's Emperor Xi. If he wants to sit on the throne of the Human Emperor of the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors, he will have to abandon his previous identity and only serve the Human Race. After all, the Human Race has made an oath that humans and demons cannot coexist. If the Human Race finds out that their Human Emperor is a demon, the consequences will be unimaginable."
When Nüwa heard this, her expression changed immediately. She had forgotten about this. If Fuxi really became the Human Emperor, even if he regained his cultivation and memories from his previous life, he would not be able to return to the Demon Race. This was something that Nüwa could not accept.
In the Mountain River Map, Fuxi listened to everything that was happening in the outside world quietly. There was a conflicted expression on his face, but he did not want to put Nüwa in a difficult position. Since the Human Race recognized him as the Human Emperor for the sake of Nüwa after knowing that he was a demon, he was afraid that Nüwa would lose all her prestige in the Human Race, and the remaining ten percent of the Human Race's fate would be lost.
