Chapter 359 - Heavenly Dao Merit, Nether Race (1/2)
Han Jue caught Meng Po’s aura, but he felt that it was different.
The aura of Reincarnation!
Empress Houtu!
Could these living beings be created by Empress Houtu?
“Eh? Why are you here?”
A female voice entered Han Jue’s ears. It was similar to Meng Po’s, but it was younger and more beautiful.
Han Jue knew that his divine sense had been exposed, so he asked, “Senior Meng Po?”
“Meng Po is already dead. You can call me Empress Houtu.”
Empress Houtu’s tone was very gentle without any arrogance.
Inexplicably no longer nervous, Han Jue said, “So it’s Empress Houtu. It’s truly my honor to meet you.”
Her cultivation level was still unknown.
This meant that she was at least a Zenith Heaven cultivator, or even a Sage.
“How many people from my Magus Race are with you?” Empress Houtu’s voice sounded again.
The two of them were communicating with their divine sense. Other than them, no one else could hear them.
Han Jue replied, “Two. You want to see them?”
“No need. I’m just asking. These are members of my newly created race. What do you think the name should be?” Empress Houtu asked with a smile. Her tone was casual, and Han Jue inevitably felt close to her.
He couldn’t help but be wary.
The more amicable she was, the more dangerous it was!
What if Empress Houtu suddenly attacked him one day?
Han Jue took a deep breath and said, “This matter should naturally be decided by you. How can I cross the line?”
“It’s fine. Go ahead. I’ll see if it’s suitable.”
Han Jue remained silent. How ridiculous!
Was she trying to tie him to this new race?
If Han Jue named them, he would definitely have karma with this race in the future.
But if he rejected, wouldn’t that offend Empress Houtu?
Didn’t you say you would be my backing? Why do you want to harm me?
Han Jue was dissatisfied with Empress Houtu and felt that she was not nice.
At this moment, Empress Houtu smiled and said, “Are you still afraid of being tainted by karma? You cultivate the Dao of Reincarnation. I created the cycle of reincarnation. The karma between you and me has actually been buried long ago. Why do you need to differentiate between us?”
Han Jue asked, “What relationship do you have with Immortal Emperor Samsara?”
“He’s only a child who has gone astray. A long time ago, I established the cycle of reincarnation. After the cycle of reincarnation was born, a trace of life appeared. That trace of life developed into him. However, he was very strong. He had always wanted to escape the cycle of reincarnation and dominate Reincarnation. After so many years, I don’t know what he wants or what he’s doing.”
Empress Houtu’s answer shocked Han Jue.
In that case, Immortal Emperor Samsara was equivalent to Empress Houtu’s son?
Han Jue pinched his fingers to deduce and discovered that he indeed had karma with Samsara.
This was the profundity of karma. After reaching the Emperor Realm, one could deduce clues. After reaching the Deity Realm, one could even deduce all the karma related to them unless the karma involved an even stronger existence.
Han Jue and the Dao of Reincarnation did have karma.
In that case, there was indeed no need to worry.
Han Jue said in a low voice, “Why don’t we call them the Nether Race? They will live in the Nine Nether Purgatory for a long time. They won’t enter the calamity or the world.”
Not entering the calamity!
Not entering the world!
He had deliberately mentioned these two points. This was the original intention of this name. If the Nether Race went against the original intention of this name in the future, the Heavenly Dao would judge them, and he might have a way to get rid of them.
Empress Houtu smiled and said, “Sure. From now on, they will be called the Nether Race. The Nether Race will not enter the calamity and will not enter the world. If they disobey, the heavens will destroy them.”
Boom!
Thunderclouds appeared above the Fiends. It was the Heavenly Dao Thundercloud.
Han Jue was secretly shocked. He didn’t expect Empress Houtu to be so decisive.
