123: The sky is still too low.

In the center of the volcanic lake, an elegant and unique pavilion was situated.

The surroundings were a fiery red, yet it didn't feel overly hot. Instead, a faint coolness drifted through, making it especially suitable for sitting and engaging in Dao Discussion.

Inside the pavilion, both Fuxi and Nuwa marveled at the miraculous nature of this place.

The fire Qi here was dense and the Laws ran in reverse; it was truly wondrous beyond compare.

To be able to cause such a transformation in the massive Immortal Volcano showed that the Cultivation of these two Fellow Daoists had reached an unfathomable level.

Ling Ling brought over a tray of tea and said respectfully, "Greetings, Revered Master, Daoist Venerable, and two Seniors."

Previously, because she was in secluded Cultivation, she hadn't been able to come out to greet them.

This time, she had been arranged by the other two to serve the tea.

Having witnessed certain strange hobbies of this Senior, Jin Feng and Qing Luan couldn't help but keep a respectful distance, leaving only the innocent Ling Ling to be sent.

Yuan Feng first examined her Disciple and, finding that her Cultivation had progressed again, nodded in satisfaction.

Receiving this encouragement, Ling Ling was overjoyed. "Thank you for the affirmation, Revered Master. This Disciple will certainly redouble her efforts."

However, at this moment, a certain Senior heard that this was Yuan Feng's Disciple, and the corners of her mouth couldn't help but curl into a smile.

Yet, she did not get handsy with Ling Ling or anything of the sort.

Perhaps it was because they were currently in the middle of a Dao Discussion, and the occasion was quite formal.

It was also possible that Nuwa had an excessive fondness for Phoenixes, but wasn't quite as fanatical about other races.

But the two watching from a distance seemed to have discovered a way to deal with this Senior.

In the future, they would just send Ling Ling out.

After Yuan Feng gave a few instructions, Ling Ling consciously withdrew.

At her current level, she was not yet qualified to participate in such an occasion.

After another round of Dao Discussion, both Fuxi and Nuwa had gained something.

At this point, Fuxi couldn't help but think that ever since they met, they had always been the ones receiving many conveniences from these two Fellow Daoists.

In contrast, what he and his younger sister could give back to them was very little.

Even as top-tier Innate Sacred Beings of the Primordial World, he didn't believe he had enough Face to warrant such treatment from these two.

One must know that in the Primordial World, there are no advantages to be had for free; all Karma has a price tag clearly marked in the shadows.

So what did these two plan to scheme regarding the two of them?

Or rather, what did they want them to do?

Once this question arose, it plagued Fuxi, making him want to get to the bottom of it.

"Do you two have any use for my sister and me? Please just say it, and we will certainly not refuse."

Though he felt some hesitation, Fuxi still asked the question.

He hadn't wanted to be so blunt; if only Qing Wu were here, he would have worded it differently.

But Fellow Daoist Yuan Feng gave him the feeling that she didn't like people who beat around the bush.

So he said it directly.

As soon as these words were spoken, the originally harmonious atmosphere suddenly froze for a moment.

Nuwa, who had been leaning on Yuan Feng's shoulder and laughing, also immediately set aside her playfulness.

Although she was very fond of Phoenix Sister, she had always harbored some doubts herself.

She felt that everything was a bit surreal.

Fuxi's question had voiced the doubts in her heart.

Sitting upright beside Yuan Feng, Nuwa cupped her hands in a salute and said solemnly, "I thank you for your care all this time, Sister. As I said before, as long as you have any needs, Nuwa will certainly not refuse."

Seeing these two siblings suddenly become so serious, Yuan Feng was also a bit unaccustomed to it for a moment.

However, after a brief moment of thought, Yuan Feng stood up, took Nuwa's hands in hers, her crimson Phoenix eyes flowing with a light of sincerity.

"Sister, there is no need to worry. I naturally feel a great affinity with you, and you are very much to my liking."

"Between us, there is only sisterly affection and no schemes."

"As for anything else, just leave it to them."

What Yuan Feng said was not false.

From the very beginning, she had befriended Nuwa with a sincere heart and treated her as a younger sister.

If there were any other schemes, they weren't for her to consider.

She was not good at scheming, nor did she need to.

Such matters she had always left to Qing Wu.

For someone she fully trusted, she could always believe in them unconditionally.

At the same time, she believed that Qing Wu could handle it best.

Hearing this, Nuwa couldn't help but smile knowingly; she naturally chose to believe her.

With Nuwa's doubts resolved, it was Fuxi's turn.

At this time, he also looked at Qing Wu with a sincere expression, wanting an answer.

Qing Wu took a sip of tea, a thoughtful look appearing on his Face.

Fuxi was not as pure as Nuwa; he couldn't be fooled by simple love.

If a satisfactory answer wasn't given, it would likely lead to a distancing of their relationship.

Although the friendship between gentlemen is as light as water, and it should be so between him and Fuxi without needing much explanation,

Unfortunately, there was indeed a gap between them, so it was no wonder Fuxi would overthink things.

He gave a light smile, set down his teacup, and pointed upward with his hand. "Fellow Daoist, please look. What is this?"

Fuxi, Nuwa, and Yuan Feng all looked up in the direction he was pointing.

"The sky?" Nuwa blurted out, then shook her head, as there was clearly nothing there.

Fuxi looked at his younger sister with a slight surprise and gave her an affirmative nod. "It is the sky."

Nuwa couldn't help but be stunned. I just made a wild guess, and I actually got it right.

However, the sky... then what?

Yuan Feng looked at the sky and then toward Qing Wu thoughtfully.

Qing Wu smiled in response to them. "That's right, it's the sky."

"Does everyone feel that the current sky is still too low?"

That's right, the current sky was still too low.

So low that there was only one Saint; so low that it still needed to suppress all living beings.

How could such a low sky withstand the invasion of outside forces, and how could it have the ability to Face the Boundless Calamity and surpass the predestined destruction?

Therefore, what he wanted was to raise the sky of the Primordial World higher.

To make it stronger, so it would no longer suppress all living beings and no longer worry about the arrival of predestined destruction... For this, the Primordial World needed the birth of more Saints and the supplementation of the Primordial Chaos Dao.

And not just Nuwa and Fuxi, but also many other Innate Sacred Beings were all a layer of support to raise the height of the sky.

Befriending the two of them—rather than saying Qing Wu and Yuan Feng chose Fuxi and Nuwa, it was more accurate to say that Fuxi and Nuwa chose them.

All Innate Sacred Beings were treated equally in his eyes, but Nuwa and Fuxi could continuously generate a connection with them, and the Karma between them had never been broken.

Once those words were spoken, Fuxi did not ask Qing Wu for any further explanation.

As someone who specialized in the Dao of Heavenly Secrets, he still had some calculation abilities.

Yuan Feng was of one mind with him, so she naturally knew what his considerations were.

Only Nuwa was a bit dazed, not understanding the meaning behind it for a long time...
