As the Daluo, Li Changxi is in control and full of confidence.
Li Changxi had no confidence at all in becoming a saint.
Her previous life had proven that she had not succeeded on her own.
In this life, Li Changxi is not stubborn.
She just didn't dare to agree to Daozu directly.
Because Daozu is not a fool either.
It is impossible to give her a Tiandao loan for no reason.
"Teacher, you just said that you don't even need us to pay you back?" Li Changxi asked.
The two saints of the West have worked very hard over the years to repay their debt to Heaven.
Is this how she and Ji Changsheng please Hongjun?
No need to pay back the money?
Why is Li Changxi so unconvinced?
But Hongjun's explanation convinced her:
"It is Tiandao that lends you the power of saints. I am just the one who makes the final decision. You treat Tiandao as a company, and I am the chairman of Tiandao Company. I make the decision and give you a low-interest or even interest-free loan, and you and Changsheng will become my people. If you repay this loan, Tiandao Company will not lose money, and the company's financial report will look good. For example, now that the two saints in the West have repaid their debt to Tiandao, Tiandao Company has become stronger, and I, the chairman, have also become a little stronger."
Li Changxi felt a chill in her heart.
Yes.
The two saints from the West repaid the power of at least four saints.
As the Heavenly Dao grew stronger, the most direct beneficiary was Hongjun, who was in charge of the Heavenly Dao.
Hongjun is not at a loss.
But from another perspective, Hongjun lost.
“As the chairman of Tiandao Company, I made money.
“But the fact is, as an individual, I don’t make any money.
“The company’s assets and the chairman’s assets are two different things. The company’s market value has increased, but that is also different from the cash flow I can mobilize.
"If Jieyin Zhunti repays the loan, the human and material resources I can use will be reduced on the books. If they don't repay the loan, I can use both of them and their resources at any time."
Li Changxi understood.
A powerful person can look back on the past and present and understand that this economic concept is a basic operation.
"I understand. Teacher, you really don't want Changsheng and I to repay the loan, just like you don't want the two saints from the West to repay the loan."
The Taoist is in charge of the way of heaven.
But the Taoist Ancestor is not the same as the Heavenly Dao.
He has an independent will.
However, in the general direction, he implements lawful justice and is about 90% in sync with the Heavenly Dao. He hopes that the Heavenly Dao Company will grow stronger and that the Pangu Universe will be better.
But Daozu also has selfish motives.
Because the chairman's individual interests and the company's overall interests are consistent only most of the time, but there are always a few times when they are inconsistent.
However, Daozu did not completely agree with Li Changxi's words.
"In fact, I don't particularly mind that Jie Yin Zhunti paid off his debt to the Heavenly Dao, otherwise I would have stopped them."
"Teacher, do you mind?"
"Of course I don't mind, it's just a little trouble. I was able to promote them back then, and I can replace them now. However, this time I chose you and Changsheng. One day in the future, if you and Changsheng want freedom just like Jieyin Zhunti, new people will naturally come to replace you."
Daozu's tone was very calm, but his words were beyond doubt: "The Heavenly Dao is in my hands, so I have the final say on who to lend money to. If you don't want to lend, there are always Daluo who are willing. I was the first to ask Taiyin, and Taiyin refused, but Zhunti agreed. If Zhunti didn't agree, there would still be other Daluo who would agree. In this universe, no one is irreplaceable, except me."
Li Changxi smiled slightly: "Teacher, you do have the capital to say that, but aren't you afraid that if you lend us the power of the saint, we will lose control directly? Or is there something in the loan of the heavenly way that you lend us that can control us?"
This is what Li Changxi is most worried about.
Hongjun gave Li Changxi a reassurance: "Before Taiqing refined the antidote for the 'Meteoric Pill', I could indeed control the life and death of the saints to a certain extent. Now, there is no power that can decide the life and death of the saints. As for what you said, I am worried that you will lose control?"
Hongjun reminded slightly: "It seems that you didn't take the reminder of Hongmeng Ziqi seriously."
Li Changxi immediately thought of the reminder from Hongmeng Purple Qi:
First, the Pangu Universe can accommodate up to seven saints.
Second, from now on, for every new saint to be born, an old saint must fall.
Third, the old saints all know this information, and this is the unshakable iron rule of the Pangu universe.
Li Changxi frowned and said, "Teacher, forgive me for being blunt, but the story of the Seven Saints is probably completely untrue."
The Taoist Ancestor called himself the Taoist Ancestor, but in the beginning, he only claimed that he had attained the Tao fruit of the Hunyuan Daluo Sage.
Pangu has revived now, and it is hard to say whether he has the strength of a saint, but as long as Pangu is given time, it is certain that he has the strength of a saint.
So there are already nine saints, so how can it accommodate a maximum of seven saints?
Hongjun pointed to the sky and said, "This is the current rules and regulations of Tiandao Company. It cannot be changed."
Li Changxi frowned even more: "Teacher, aren't you considered a saint?"
“No, my current strength has far surpassed the level of Hunyuan Daluo Saint. You can think of Daozu as a realm that is beyond reach. As for Pangu you think of, He does not have the strength of a Saint now. If He insists on becoming a Saint…”
At this point, Hongjun smiled and said, "Then he must kill a saint first. This is the current rule of heaven, unless his strength is stronger than mine."
If Pangu's current strength was stronger than Hongjun's, he would not be hiding his head and showing his tail.
Li Changxi didn't understand: "Teacher, if you make such a rule, aren't you afraid that all the saints below will join forces to rebel?"
"First, this rule was not made by me. It is an iron law formed spontaneously by the way of heaven. Hongyun's death was certainly due to Kunpeng's sneak attack, but part of the reason was that I wanted to test the authenticity of this iron law."
Li Changxi's eyes flickered.
This news had not been spread to the outside world before.
When Hongjun distributed the sainthood, he gave out seven saints, but if Hongjun is included, there will be eight saints.
However, Hong Yun, who had received the saint's organization, was ambushed and killed by the demon master Kunpeng shortly after leaving Zixiao Palace.
There are still seven holy seats.
From then on, no more strong people became saints.
Until yesterday, Haotian became a saint again after endless years.
But Hongjun has already transcended.
So now there are still seven holy seats.
Li Changxi thought to herself that Daozu had no reason to lie to her. After all, she was not worth being lied to by Daozu.
Mentally ill people also have self-awareness.
It is really unnecessary for an ordinary person to worry all day long that the billionaire is setting up a trap to cheat him.
"Secondly, it is impossible for all the saints to rebel against me together. Haotian would not dare to do that."
Therefore, Hongjun had nothing to fear.
Li Changxi did not ask what would happen if Haotian died.
The vitality of a turtle like Haotian may not be lower than that of the previous six saints.
Moreover, with Haotian's temper of enduring everything, it is hard to say what kind of danger he will encounter. Even if he does, Daozu will come to his aid.
Unless you can kill Haotian in one second.
But killing Haotian in seconds is itself an extremely difficult task.
Li Changxi also realized the real reason why Hongjun didn't need to control her and Ji Changsheng.
"So if my junior brother and I want to become saints, we must kill two saints first?"
"That's absolutely right. In addition, with the loan from Heaven, to a certain extent, I will personally help you and Ji Changsheng, just like I once personally helped Jie Yin Zhunti."
At the end of the Conferred God Tribulation, Hongjun personally took action and forced the Three Pure Ones to eat the "Meteorite Pill".
Although nominally it was because Master Tongtian was determined to destroy the world at that time.
But the other two parties involved, Jie Yin and Zhunti, did not receive any punishment at all.
Hongjun is completely taking sides.
Therefore, it is really beneficial to borrow more loans.
If you get into trouble, your creditor will definitely help you.
However, from now on, Jie Yin and Zhunti will no longer be able to receive such treatment.
Hongjun's preference will be given to the next strong person who borrows money from the Heavenly Dao.
"There are currently only two ways to become a saint:
"First, like the Three Pure Ones and Nuwa, they can really change their fate with their own strength, and no one can stop them, including me;
"Second, with my help, you can also become a saint. No one can stop you, including Pangu and other saints."
Hongjun did not force Li Changxi to make a choice.
His tone was calm: "Taiyin, I have explained it clearly enough, you can choose it yourself."
"Teacher, I hope to return to reality and discuss with my junior brother before making a decision."
Li Changxi was actually inclined to agree.
Don't be a fool to give money.
Although this in a sense belongs to standing on the side of Daozu, it can easily arouse hostility from other camps, such as Pangu and the Three Pure Ones.
But progress is more important.
As long as you can make progress, just follow the Taoist master.
If Daozu blocks her progress in the future, she will just follow him.
This choice is not difficult at all.
It was just because the person lending the money was Daozu, whose strength and means were unimaginable, so Li Changxi was able to be safe.
And she was wondering about one thing:
"Teacher, why don't you talk to your junior brother about such an important matter?"
It is difficult for her to be the master of Ji Changsheng, but Ji Changsheng can be the master of her. Li Changxi is very confident in her junior brother.
It is important for people to know themselves.
Li Changxi asked herself whether she was not as decisive and rational as her junior brother in handling such a big matter.
Hearing Li Changxi's question, Hongjun's dignified and solemn image almost broke: "I don't want to see that evil creature now."
Li Changxi: "?"
"It seems that he has not informed you of all the things he did in the Daluo Heart Demon Tribulation Illusion. That's good. It shows that he doesn't want to die yet and knows the importance of the matter." Hongjun said.
Things are actually not as complicated as Li Changxi thought.
Hongjun was telling the truth, he didn't want to see Ji Changsheng now.
Because Ji Changsheng killed Him twice in the illusion of Daluo Heart Demon Tribulation.
Or it was He who took the initiative to create opportunities for Ji Changsheng.
Daozu also wants to save face.
In front of Li Changxi, He can still maintain His tall and majestic image.
In front of Ji Changsheng, Hongjun found it hard to imagine how Ji Changsheng was secretly criticizing him in his heart.
Just stay out of sight.
However, Hongjun certainly could not take the initiative to tell Li Changxi the real reason.
The issue of face is what all the powerful people care about most when they reach a certain level - except Haotian.
The Great Celestial Master is truly awesome.
