After Zhu Rong agreed, Gong Gong and the others also expressed their agreement.
The Houtu tribe they represented was destined to fight the Yanhuang tribe, and their best opportunity was to unite with the demon race.
Finally, Jumang reminded everyone, "That Dijun is no good either. He wants to join forces with us, but he probably doesn't have any good intentions. We must be wary of him to avoid falling into his trap."
Everyone nodded in agreement upon hearing this...
As they made their decision, the calamity energy in the world grew increasingly intense, beginning to envelop the entire prehistoric continent.
Meanwhile, Di Jun had already arrived at Phoenix Perch Mountain.
If a war between the two races were to be launched, the consent of Fuxi and his sister would be necessary.
He had just arrived outside the mountain when the boy led him into the Nuwa Palace, where he met the brother and sister.
After exchanging pleasantries, Di Jun revealed his purpose for visiting.
Fuxi frowned slightly upon hearing this, seemingly quite disapproving of Dijun's decision.
However, the goddess Nuwa readily agreed.
Out of consideration for his sister, Fuxi could only agree.
Emperor Jun was very pleased to hear this and immediately took his leave.
After Di Jun left, only the brother and sister remained in the hall.
Fuxi then frowned and said, "Sister, why did you agree to him? Do you know that once the war starts, both the demon race and the human race will suffer immense devastation!"
Nuwa sighed, "Brother, you are also a person who understands the will of Heaven. How could you not understand that this great war is simply unavoidable? What can we do even if we disagree?"
"If the demon race wants to become the protagonist of the primordial world, it must defeat the human race."
"If the human race wants to prosper, it must suppress the demon race."
"If we don't attack the human race now, the human race will surely attack the demon race in the future. So why can't we strike first and take the initiative?"
Upon hearing this, Fuxi remained silent for a moment before saying, "Don't forget, you still owe that Fellow Daoist Xuanxiang some karma to repay. If you make things difficult for him now, those good deeds of the past will turn into bad consequences."
Nuwa remained silent for a while, then sighed, "This is a struggle for destiny, and we have no choice but to do it. As for the cause and effect, I will find a way to repay him in the future."
"That's all we can do."
Fuxi knew very well that Nuwa had agreed so readily, mostly for his sake.
After all, compared to the goddess Nuwa, he needed to utilize the merits and fortune of the demon race to help him sever his own corpse.
Therefore, if the demon race becomes the protagonist of the primordial world, it will be of great benefit to him...
However, just as the brother and sister had finished their discussion and reached a consensus...
A slight ripple appeared in a certain space at the foot of Phoenix Perch Mountain, and after a short while, Hu Le walked out of the space.
He did not conceal his presence after appearing, and was immediately sensed by the brother and sister in the mountains.
When the two men saw that the visitor was Hu Le, they were both taken aback. After exchanging a glance, they still ordered the boy to go out and greet him.
A little while later, Hu Le, led by the boy, entered the Nuwa Palace.
The brother and sister got up to greet them.
“Fellow Daoist Xuanxiang has come from afar, and my brother and I have not been able to greet you properly. We hope you will forgive us.”
Fuxi smiled and bowed.
Even though the two sides would soon be targeting each other, Fuxi did not lose his manners.
Nuwa smiled slightly and bowed.
"You two are too kind. Please don't blame me for being presumptuous," Hu Le said with a smile, returning the greeting.
After exchanging a few pleasantries, Fuxi invited Hu Le to sit down inside the hall.
The goddess Nuwa ordered her disciple Caifeng to personally present the celestial dew and spiritual fruit.
After exchanging a few words, Fuxi asked Hu Le about his purpose in coming.
Hu Le smiled slightly and asked, "May I ask, fellow Daoists, did Fellow Daoist Di Jun just pass by?"
"Yes, he did come here, and he just left not long ago." Fuxi nodded in agreement.
There was absolutely no need to hide it.
Hu Le then asked, "If I may venture a guess, is he here to incite you two fellow Daoists to make things difficult for me?"
Fuxi chuckled, "Fellow Daoist, you truly have foresight."
Since he had promised Di Jun that he would lead the demon race and Hou Tu tribe to jointly attack the Yanhuang tribe, he naturally had nothing to hide. In any case, denying it would be useless and would only make him lose face.
"Sigh! It seems you two have agreed to his request."
"For the sake of my demon race's fortune, I had no choice but to do this. Please forgive me, fellow Daoist." Fuxi smiled apologetically.
To be honest, the two siblings didn't have much of a grudge against Hu Le, but because of their differing stances, they often had to make things difficult for him, which made him feel quite helpless.
"You two are also aware of destiny, how could you be bewitched by that Di Jun? Do you really think that the demon race can defeat the human race and become the protagonist of the prehistoric world?" Hu Le asked rhetorically.
Upon hearing this, the brother and sister fell silent.
Humans were already stronger than demons, and with the support of the Heavenly Court, the Xuanmen, and even the Western lineage, it would be extremely difficult for the demons to destroy humans and become the sole protagonist of the prehistoric world, even if the two of them thought about it.
But they also knew that if the demon race fought hard at this moment, they might still be able to win a chance for great prosperity from the Heavenly Dao.
Otherwise, once humanity is unified and its power is fully integrated, the demon race will truly have no chance left.
Fuxi was not the kind of person who drifted along aimlessly; what was wrong with trying to fight for destiny for the demon race?
Even if we ultimately fail, what then?
At least he tried...
Nuwa thought so too, otherwise she wouldn't have agreed so readily to Dijun.
Seeing that the two remained silent, Hu Le continued, "Gentlemen, I understand why you agreed to Di Jun's request. Unfortunately, you should also understand that the chances of the demon race winning are extremely slim."
Besides, even if you ultimately defeat me, so what?
If you invite the downfall of the Xuanmen (Taoist sect) and the Western lineage, you will still suffer a crushing defeat.
"So, you came here this time to threaten us with them?" Nuwa said unhappily.
Hu Le shook his head. "How could it be a threat? I'm just stating the facts... Besides, I'm only here to make a good connection with you two."
Upon hearing this, Fuxi's thick eyebrows furrowed slightly. "What exactly do you want to do, fellow Daoist? Please speak frankly."
"Gentlemen, the demon race will eventually decline, and the primordial world will surely belong to the human race. So why do you two confine yourselves to the demon race?"
"What do you mean, fellow Daoist...?"
"Why don't you two change your stance and focus your attention on my human race?"
Otherwise, by the time humanity becomes the main force in the primordial world, it may have already been divided up by the Xuanmen and others, and it will be too late for you two to make a move.”
Hu Le finally revealed his true intentions and explained his purpose for the trip.
Upon hearing this, the brother and sister exchanged a glance, both seeing a hint of interest in each other's eyes.
Clearly, Hu Le's words had finally touched the hearts of both of them...
