Chapter 87: The Emperor's Teachers All Join the Jie Sect, Xuan Chu Instructs Houtu
In Zixiao Palace, Hongjun divided the four teachers of the Human Emperor equally among the Human Sect, the Chan Sect, the Western Sect, and the Earth Immortal Palace. As for Nuwa, since Fuxi was the one destined by the Heavenly Emperor, the first of the Three Sovereigns, Nuwa was not among the teachers of the Human Emperor. Overall, this result was quite satisfactory to the Six Sages of the Heavenly Dao, except for Yuanshi.
Meanwhile, Xuan Chu also summoned Tong Tian, Hou Tu, and Ming He to the Pangu Palace.
"The rise of the human race requires the rule of the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors, and the return of the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors to their rightful place requires the guidance of the Human Emperor's teacher. After the Human Emperor returns to his rightful place, the Human Emperor's teacher will also receive corresponding merit rewards. I have already discussed this with Hongjun, and I have obtained four of the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors under my tutelage," Xuan Chu said.
"Uncle, why would Hongjun be so kind as to give up four teachers of the Human Emperor?" Houtu asked in confusion. Teachers of the Human Emperor already receive merit rewards, why would Hongjun be so kind as to give them up?
Xuan Chu smiled and said, "Of course Hongjun wouldn't be willing, but he has no choice. Firstly, now the Earthly Dao and the Heavenly Dao coexist and check each other. The Great Dao personally intervenes in the prehistoric world, and the Heavenly Dao can no longer be the same as before. In fact, the title of the Human Emperor's teacher is not so much about the Earthly Dao and the Heavenly Dao sharing the same territory as the original body and Hongjun, but rather the Earthly Dao and the Heavenly Dao sharing the same territory."
This is why Xuan Chu was determined to reclaim the authority of the Earthly Path. The three paths of Heaven, Earth, and Man were originally equal. In the previous life, it was only because the Heavenly Path appeared earlier and Hong Jun later orchestrated things that the authority of the Earthly and Manly Paths fell into the hands of the Heavenly Path. With the Heavenly Path controlling both the Earthly and Manly Paths, it had completely taken control of the Primordial World. Even the Great Dao could not do anything to the Heavenly Path unless the entire Primordial World was wiped out. This is also why the Great Dao retreated in the previous life.
Now things are different. The Heavenly Way has lost control over the Earthly Way, and the Earthly Way and the Heavenly Way are in balance with each other. The Great Way has become much more powerful. If the Human Way is born in the future, and the three powers stand in a tripartite balance, then no one will be able to defy the Great Way.
"The second reason, and the most important one, is that the Kongtong Seal, the treasure of human destiny that can be used to confer the title of Human Emperor, is in my possession. Without the Kongtong Seal, even if Hongjun were to produce ten thousand Human Emperors, it would be of no use. Therefore, if Hongjun wants to achieve the great prosperity of the human race, he must beg me for help," Xuan Chu continued.
"I see." After hearing Xuan Chu's explanation, the others suddenly understood. No wonder Hong Jun was so kind. It turned out he had no choice.
"I have considered these four teachers of the Human Emperors. Tongtian has many disciples of the Jie Sect, so I will entrust these four teachers of the Human Emperors to the Jie Sect for arrangement," Xuan Chu said.
"Uncle, isn't this a bit inappropriate?" Tongtian was surprised to hear that Xuan Chu wanted to give all the positions of Human Emperor's Teacher to the Jie Sect. He quickly said that although he was happy that the Jie Sect could get all the positions, the Xuanmen Sect had more than one Jie Sect. What would happen to the Wu Clan and the Asura Sect if the Jie Sect took them all? What would Houtu and the Styx think? There would be many more opportunities to gain merit. Tongtian did not want to ruin the relationship between his fellow disciples for this little bit of merit.
"Brother Tongtian, just listen to what your uncle has to say. There must be a reason why he did it this way," Houtu said to Tongtian. Houtu never cared about being the teacher of the Human Emperor. After all, with the Six Paths of Reincarnation, Houtu was not lacking in merit. In addition, Houtu had no disciples. As for the Wu Clan, it would be better to kill them than to have them teach a human.
"Yes, Senior Brother Tongtian, please let our teacher finish speaking," Minghe added. Although he had some reservations about the Human Emperor's teacher, he still supported Xuan Chu's decision.
Seeing that Houtu and Styx had no problem with their attitudes, Xuan Chu nodded in satisfaction and said, "Tongtian, you are too impatient. Let me finish."
"Yes, Uncle."
Xuan Chu said, "The reason I gave all the teachers of the Human Emperors to the Jie Sect is not because I favor the Jie Sect, but because among you, the Jie Sect needs them the most. Hou Tu has no disciples, and with the Six Paths of Reincarnation, she will not lack merit. The teachers of the Human Emperors are dispensable to her. As for Styx, you also have the Asura Path, so you will not lack merit. Moreover, the doctrines of your Asura Sect are not suitable for the human race. Therefore, after weighing the pros and cons, I decided to give all the teachers of the Human Emperors to the Jie Sect. Do you all understand now?"
Everyone nodded, understanding what Xuan Chu meant. Especially Styx, who was initially a little unhappy, but now only felt regret. Why was it that his Asura Cult's doctrines were not suitable for humans?
"Tongtian, of the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors of the Human Race, I have obtained the Earth Sovereign, the second, third, and fifth positions among the Five Emperors. After you return, arrange for your disciples to go to the Human Race and await the birth of the Human Sovereign. When the Human Sovereign is born, there will be extraordinary phenomena in the heavens and earth. Just observe them carefully. But remember, the disciple who will become the Human Sovereign must have good character. The level of cultivation is not important. Do you understand?" Xuan Chu said to Tongtian.
"Tongtian understands, please rest assured, Uncle," Tongtian said.
"Now that this matter is settled, you may all leave for the time being. Houtu, please stay. I have something to tell you," Xuan Chu said.
After Tongtian and Minghe left, Xuanchu said to Houtu, "Houtu, Fuxi of the demon race is destined to be the first of the Three Sovereigns. However, if he wants to become the Human Emperor, he must abandon his demon body and be reborn as a human. Before long, Nuwa will take Fuxi's soul to the Six Paths of Reincarnation. Please do me this favor, understand?"
"Uncle, are we really going to let the demon race off so easily?" Houtu was somewhat displeased. The teacher of the Human Emperor had already received merit rewards, so wouldn't becoming the Human Emperor himself bring even more merit? The Wu Clan already had a grudge against the demon race, and now they were actually giving the demon race the green light. How could this be allowed?
"Houtu, have you forgotten again? The Six Paths of Reincarnation is the place where reincarnation takes place in the primordial world. It is imperative to ensure fairness and impartiality. Moreover, Fuxi becoming the Heavenly Emperor is the will of the Great Dao, which cannot be changed. I am not discussing this with you, but informing you. Do you understand?" Xuan Chu said earnestly.
"Yes, Uncle, Houtu understands," Houtu said sullenly.
"Alright, Houtu, I have my own plans. There is one more thing. After the second Human Emperor returns to the throne, you should arrange for Chi You to be reincarnated into the Human Witch Tribe," Xuan Chu said.
"Uncle, why is this?" Houtu was somewhat confused. Chi You was one of the few remaining great witches of the witch clan after the war between the witches and demons. Wouldn't having Chi You reincarnate into the human witch tribe weaken the witch clan's power for no reason?
Xuan Chu said, "The last of the Three Sovereigns, the Tai Sovereign, was tasked with unifying the human race. There are two people who possess the destiny of the Tai Sovereign, one of whom is Chi You."
"Uncle, are you planning to let Chi You compete for the throne of the Human Emperor?" As soon as Xuan Chu said this, Hou Tu immediately understood Xuan Chu's plan.
Xuan Chu smiled and nodded, saying, "That's right. Although I said I would hand over the position of Taihuang's teacher to the Xuanmen, whether they can obtain the merit depends on their abilities."
"Yes, Uncle, Houtu understands. Houtu will arrange for Chiyou to be reincarnated." Houtu's mood immediately improved.
"Alright, now that you understand, let's go and wait for the right opportunity," Xuan Chu said.
"Yes, Houtu takes her leave."
"Sister!" In the Chaos Palace, Fuxi arrived at Nuwa's palace immediately after receiving her message.
"Brother, you've come." Nuwa smiled when she saw Fuxi. She hadn't seen Fuxi for a long time since the war between the Lich King and the Demon King.
"Sister, may I ask what brings you here today?" Fuxi asked.
