Chapter 563: Chapter 469 This is Wang Yang’s Opportunity_2

"Taiqing, you are a disgrace to the status of a Saint!"

Daoist Ancestor Hongjun was truly enraged. He had not expected Saint Taiqing to harbor such thoughts.

This made him feel as if all the past characteristics of Saint Taiqing were laced with hypocrisy, and he even wished he could directly end Saint Taiqing’s life on the spot.

"Honorable Master, Honorable Master forgive me, this disciple knows his wrongs, this disciple knows his wrongs."

Saint Taiqing, disregarding his image, knelt directly in front of Daoist Ancestor Hongjun.

Following Daoist Ancestor Hongjun in Daoist cultivation for countless years, Saint Taiqing had never seen him so infuriated.

"Taiqing, today I will tell you, if you dare to target Wang Yang again, even if Daoist Yang Mei attacks the Three Realms and the realms are destroyed in an instant, I will see to it that you are eradicated and your soul is scattered!"

As he looked at Saint Taiqing kneeling on the ground, Daoist Ancestor Hongjun’s anger had yet to subside.

These words truly frightened Saint Taiqing, and all his small schemes shattered in that moment.

Regardless of the reason, Saint Taiqing would no longer dare to target Wang Yang.

With Daoist Ancestor Hongjun’s protection, who in the entire Three Realms would dare to move against Wang Yang.

"Let’s not speak of this matter again. Today, I leave you behind, and the words you have spoken must not be known to outsiders. I shall turn a blind eye."

"But if such thoughts arise again, I shall not spare you!"

Even though Daoist Ancestor Hongjun was only a phantom presence, his gaze was enough to overwhelm Saint Taiqing.

"I shall heed the Order of Law!"

Saint Taiqing knelt on the ground, bowing his body, a picture of recognition of his error.

"Rise."

Daoist Ancestor Hongjun sighed, allowing Saint Taiqing to stand.

Saint Taiqing stood trembling, for he had truly felt Daoist Ancestor Hongjun’s intent to kill him just moments before.

Despite being a Saint and one of the strongest among the six Saints, in the presence of Daoist Ancestor Hongjun, he was like a child.

"Who else knows about the World Embryo?"

If it weren’t for the aggressive advance of the Demon Clan, under any other circumstances, Hongjun might have truly killed Taiqing, or if not, imprisoned him forever, never to emerge again.

However, now, having a Saint to oversee matters was somewhat better.

And it was for this reason that Saint Taiqing was spared.

"Reporting to my Honorable Master, only I am aware of this matter."

Saint Taiqing added silently in his heart, you knew of it long ago.

"Remember, this must not be revealed. Others must not know of the existence of the World Embryo."

"He is now the last hope of our Three Realms."

After speaking, Hongjun heaved a long sigh.

"Honorable Master!"

For some reason, upon hearing Hongjun’s words, Saint Taiqing felt a wave of sorrow.

He watched Hongjun quietly, not knowing what else to say.

"The trend of the times is such that the Three Realms have been at peace for many years, and they are bound to face this calamity."

"Moreover, this is not the end, but it can be considered an end."

Hongjun’s tone was calm, leaving Saint Taiqing somewhat perplexed.

"I know you have many questions in your heart."

"But do you really think Yang Mei cannot attack the Three Realms now? Before I came here, I played a game with Yang Mei in the Void, and I lost."

"But an agreement was made for three hundred years."

"If he attacks directly now, although I can suppress him for three hundred years, after that time, without his intervention, the Three Realms will be destroyed."

"The Heavenly Dao of the Primordial Continent was still too flawed after that battle!"

"The World Embryo also cannot allow me to advance further, it can only somewhat repair the Heavenly Dao, but what’s the point?"

"Shall we extend three hundred years to four hundred, or five hundred? And do you have the hope of merging with the Dao within five hundred years?"

"Furthermore, the path to Achieve Saintliness is different from mine. Even if you merged with the Dao, I’m afraid you wouldn’t be able to suppress Yang Mei for three hundred years."

"You tell me, what would be the point of taking the World Embryo?"

"The Great Dao has fifty parts; when I Achieved Saintliness, forty-two of the Great Dao merged within me, allowing me to merge with the Dao and repair the Heavenly Dao."

"But these forty-two Great Daos, are they not just left to us by the Heavenly Dao?"

"Only Wang Yang, from the moment he appeared, I could not detect the trajectory of his fate, or rather, he is the one that escaped."

"If I had to say who is the most likely to reach my height in three hundred years, it would only be Wang Yang."

"And he may even go further."

Daoist Ancestor Hongjun let out a long sigh, even he himself had forgotten how many times he had sighed in such a short span of time today.

This situation had never happened before, which indicated that the Great Calamity of the Three Realms was indeed serious.

"Honorable Master, when you obscured the celestial Secret, was it because you feared that we would deduce and notice the anomaly on Wang Yang?"

Saint Taiqing reacted instantly after hearing Hongjun’s words, recalling how they had descended to the lower realm,

but Hongjun had obscured the entire celestial Secret. Now it seemed, was it not a form of protection for Wang Yang.

Nowadays in the Three Realms, everyone knows of Wang Yang, but his true identity is strictly protected.

Had it not been for the day when Wang Yang used the World Embryo to absorb his own Minor World, Saint Taiqing would not have known of such a background behind Wang Yang.

Looking back now, Saint Taiqing slightly regretted it.

Had he not been greedy at that time, he would not have had such a rigid falling out with Wang Yang.

However, although Saint Taiqing coveted Wang Yang’s World Embryo, he was clearer about the principle of when the lips are gone, the teeth will be cold.

Once the Three Realms were truly extinct, what use would the World Embryo be to him?

Would he, like Daoist Yang Mei, explore the Void to obtain opportunities?

Moreover, he had overestimated the role of the World Embryo, if it were as he thought, allowing himself to ascend to heaven in a single step, Hongjun would have used it himself.

"Taiqing, I spoke so much to you today because I want you to let go of your biases."

"The Three Pure Ones of you became Saints together and established the Three Teachings of Humanity, Enlightenment, and Severance, but what about now? Even if you were forced to join forces, how could you possibly work together wholeheartedly?"

Hongjun looked at Saint Taiqing, in fact, if Saint Taiqing had not requested to report privately, he would have kept Saint Taiqing behind to persuade him regardless.

It’s just that in that situation, Daoist Ancestor Hongjun wouldn’t have said so much.

"Rest assured, Honorable Master, I have taken note of this and will definitely cooperate fully with the Three Realms in combating the Demon Clan and find ways to help Wang Yang grow."

Saint Taiqing said to Daoist Ancestor Hongjun.

"Hmm, good that you can think this way, you may leave now."

Daoist Ancestor Hongjun nodded in satisfaction, waved his hand to dismiss the Barrier, and allowed Saint Taiqing to leave.

Saint Taiqing did not delay. He transformed into a streak of light, directly leaving Golden Turtle Island.

Looking on, Saint Taiqing indeed no longer had thoughts of targeting Wang Yang, for what makes a Saint is related to their breadth of mind as well.

After being enlightened by Daoist Ancestor Hongjun, Saint Taiqing realized that there was a slight flaw in his state of mind that needed immediate repair.

Otherwise, the thought of making further progress was nothing but a fantasy.

At the same time, it wasn’t an empty promise from Saint Taiqing to assist Wang Yang with all his might.

The current Saint Taiqing naturally wished for Wang Yang to become a Saint soon and then to continue to step forward within the realm of Saints.

Although he did not know how Wang Yang would Achieve Saintliness, comprehending the Power of the Great Dao was definitely correct.

Unlike Yuanshi celestial Venerable and the Leader of the Tongtian Sect, Saint Taiqing had genuinely comprehended the Great Dao of Yin and Yang.

As long as the Three Realms were preserved, what did the Fate of the Human Teachings Sect matter.

At that moment, Saint Taiqing had an epiphany and felt that having been a Saint for many years, he seemed to be able to take another step forward.

"It seems my efforts have not been wasted."

Hongjun, still on Golden Turtle Island, sensed the change in Saint Taiqing immediately and revealed a relieved smile on his face.

Saint Taiqing, having been a Saint for so many years and unable to advance even an inch, could only continuously venture into the Void to search for fragments of worlds.

Now, he finally had the chance to advance, and Daoist Ancestor Hongjun felt that his painstaking efforts had not been in vain.

Witnessing from Golden Turtle Island, Leader of the Tongtian Sect Wang Yang and others naturally saw Saint Taiqing hastily leave from Biyou Palace, and they were somewhat puzzled about why Saint Taiqing was in such a rush.

Just as the Leader of the Tongtian Sect was about to speak, the voice of Daoist Ancestor Hongjun came from within Biyou Palace again.

"Daoist Wang Yang, come inside."

Daoist Ancestor Hongjun called for Wang Yang alone, which caused Sun Wukong’s face to light up with a brilliant smile, even happier than if he had been summoned himself.

The Leader of the Tongtian Sect was also very happy for Wang Yang.

"Daoist Wang Yang, go ahead and enter."

Leader of the Tongtian Sect said to Wang Yang with a beaming smile, as this was Wang Yang’s opportunity.
