Di Jun and Tai Yi were entangled with the Ancestral Witches, but Nuwa was not. As soon as she sensed the movement of the Witch Clan, she prepared to leave the Nuwa Palace to support the Heavenly Court. However, before she had gone far, five powerful forces suddenly rushed in from five directions and imprisoned her.
Nuwa frowned, trying to break free, but the restraints became even stronger, blocking her way firmly, and she was forced to stop.
"Who is it?" she roared. "Get out here!"
"It's us."
The light slowly faded, revealing five familiar faces. Nuwa's heart skipped a beat: "Five fellow disciples?"
Those who came were clearly the five saints: Taiqing, Yuqing, Shangqing, Jieyin, and Zhunti!
Tongtian's face was ashen, clearly indicating that he had not come voluntarily, but was constrained by the Heavenly Dao and had no choice but to come: "In the name of the Heavenly Dao, the Five Sages have besieged Nuwa's Palace. Nuwa, you should go back first; the Heavenly Dao forbids you from going to help the demon race!"
Nuwa was furious and threw out her magic weapon, the Red Embroidered Ball, ready to start a war without saying a word: "I am the leader of the Demon Sect. My demon race is in trouble, why can't I go to help them?"
Before she could finish speaking, her voice was silenced. It was as if the heavens had sealed her mouth, preventing her from moving or even making a sound!
The five saints pressed their lips together and surrounded her, saying, "Because you are not only the leader of the demon cult, but also the Holy Mother of the human race."
“Fuxi is dead. You are the last link between the demon race and the human race. If you fight for the demon race and die in the war between the demons and the lich, what will become of the human race?”
"If you participate in this battle, and are defeated, you will surely perish like Di Jun and Tai Yi. The remaining remnants of the demon race, their young and old, will have no powerful protector left to shield them—"
"As long as you live, you will leave the demon race with a last chance to survive! As long as you don't participate in the war, you can still be the demon race's last support in the future, and protect them from extinction!"
The angry roars and curses echoed across the sky, creating ripples that nearly shattered one's soul.
"Golden Crow, what is your crime?!"
The leading golden crow raised its head and looked at Kuafu with a mocking expression: "What crime have I committed?"
"You defied the heavenly laws and openly broke out of Tang Valley, is that not a crime? You set fire to the entire wilderness, causing widespread suffering and death, is that not a crime?"
Jinwu sneered: "It is true that I broke out of Tanggu, but the Heavenly Dao's decree to imprison me in Tanggu was inherently selfish. So how am I violating the Heavenly Law? It is true that I scorched the primordial world, but I will not accept the filth of the suffering caused to the living beings!"
Kuafu roared in fury: "You won't admit it? Just look at the primordial world, so many living beings have perished tragically, how dare you—"
His voice abruptly stopped.
Because he lowered his head and looked towards the primordial wilderness.
The sun remained suspended in the sky, not pressing any further, but the earth was already parched and devastated.
—But it was merely a vast, parched land.
Ten suns appeared simultaneously, scorching the earth, but...
However, it only scorches the earth, making it appear as if the plants and trees are withered and the animals are dying, but in reality—not a single life actually dies!
They were only just experiencing the unbearable heat, and at most some of them fainted due to their weak bodies. But to say that any living thing died from the heat was really impossible.
Kuafu's expression instantly became very uncomfortable. His eyes flickered, and he scolded again, "No matter what, you should not have rushed out of Tang Valley and recklessly entered the prehistoric world. This is the order of Heaven, and you must obey it!"
"Why does the Heavenly Dao forbid us from coming to the Primordial World? The Primordial World was created by our Father God Pangu, and I am a direct descendant of Pangu's left eye, the Sun Star. What kind of ruler is the Heavenly Dao? What right does it have to point fingers at the beings of the Primordial World?!"
