Inside the Hunyuan Temple, the Wuji Heart-Soul and the two Guardians of the Way had exchanged countless blows, yet remained evenly matched, neither able to claim victory. Eventually, both sides ceased fighting, each occupying half of the hall, sitting cross-legged in silent confrontation. The aura of the Myriad Ways and the purple-gold light collided, yet they remained distinct, as if neither side were willing to yield a single inch.
After a long while, the Wuji Heart-Soul narrowed his eyes. "How many ages has it been? You have been suppressed by this Way for so long, and now you have finally found an opportunity for revenge?"
"We guard the Way, specifically the Thesis of the Forty-Nine," Xuan Zheng said calmly. "There is no question of revenge or lack thereof."
