As it is told, upon arriving in the Primordial World, Xuanqing's first destination was the human ancestral land. Seeing the humans rebuilding their homes and a few smiles returning to their faces, joy welled up in Xuanqing's heart. Yet he chose not to show himself; after all, humanity had its own path to tread, and with his senior martial uncle, Taishang Laozi, preaching the Human Teachings to guide them, Xuanqing, as a disciple of Jiejiao, knew it would be improper to overstep and risk displeasing Laozi.
It was worth mentioning that the brat Xuanyuan, accompanied by the Kui ox, had somehow made his way to the human ancestral land. When the three ancestors led by Suiren learned that Xuanyuan was a disciple of Xuanqing, they received him with the highest human rituals, revered him as a human protector, and offered him human incense.
Watching Xuanyuan behave with humility and courtesy among the humans, getting along harmoniously with them, Xuanqing nodded in satisfaction. Humanity naturally possessed great Qi Fortune and was destined to be the protagonist of heaven and earth. By planting this seed of good karma with humans now, Xuanyuan would surely have Merit guarding his body in the future, gaining the ability to protect himself while also benefiting his cultivation. It was a win-win, after all.
