Kill two birds with one stone?
No, too many birds with one stone, too many to count.
My death would rewrite the political landscape of the five great aristocratic families of the Holy Emperor, Kui Leihan and Cao Erzhu would be held accountable, Xu Xiaoshou and Bazhun'an would not be able to escape implication...
Pulling one hair affects the whole body; Hallmaster Dao could use as a lever to pry the entire Shengshen Continent.
It's impossible!
Absolutely impossible!
Can't kill!
Absolutely can't kill!
Under such a situation where one takes advantage of victory to pursue the remnants, Hallmaster Dao plays with people just like playing with dogs.
Other than lying on the ground and desperately begging for rcy to have a way out, any slight act of transgression would bring about a fatal disaster.
And , Yue Gongli, having hidden until now in the Divine Relics to survive, successfully reaching this point.
If I were to fail at the last mont under Hallmaster Dao's hand, a re afterthought to be "taken along"...
Then wouldn't I die too aggrievedly!
"Enough."
After desperately wailing for what felt like an eternity, in front of these people, losing all sense of sha.
Yue Gongli finally heard that voice, cold and sowhat estranged, coming from his brother-in-law.
He lifted his head, fear evident on his face, but also feeling as if he had been granted amnesty.
I... I have survived...
Hallmaster Dao squinted his eyes, internally lanting the pity, but also understanding, after all Bazhun'an was not foolish.
Xu Xiaoshou's stomach growled, and Bazhun'an continued without ntioning Yue Gongli or his own affairs:
"I will leave, this battlefield is yours, it has nothing to do with ."
As soon as he finished speaking, Yue Gongli wailed:
"Brother-in-law!"
"Take with you, at the very least take , I..."
He instinctively wanted to say "my big sister still needs to deliver her als," but abruptly held his tongue.
Good grief, that was certainly not sothing that could be said.
In such a delicate atmosphere, even if he was sincere, saying it would only co across as a "threat."
Bazhun'an originally did not want to deal with this broken affair, but there was the off chance that he would strike out in anger because of his sister just before leaving... Even if he would eventually co to his senses, regretting being used, it was not entirely impossible.
The Eighth Sword Deity was, of course, calm.
But in the world of Spiritual Cultivators, were there few cases of passionate killings?
Moreover, since when do ancient swordsn need a reason to act on a whim, suddenly wanting to kill you today?
Damn it, Dao Nitian!
Don't let find an opportunity, really!
I will absolutely ensure you suffer to the point you wish you were dead, better off dead than alive, your death unworthy of regret!
"I, am going to die..." Yue Gongli's words ca to his lips, leaving only a bitter expression on his face.
Bazhun'an's words betrayed no emotion:
"It's better to rely on oneself than to seek help from others."
"Besides, at this ti, the one you should be relying on is not , but your Lord Shou."
Xu Xiaoshou?
Yue Gongli hastily looked up, just as his eyes t with Xu Xiaoshou, he caught a glimpse of the fleeting murderous look in his eyes.
In fact, initially Xu Xiaoshou thought that Hallmaster Dao was just joking with Yue Gongli.
As the situation progressed to this point, he really wanted to beco Elder Dao the Flamboyant's sword and commit murder!
Already holding a worthless life, carrying too much karma on his back, he reckoned even Cursed Yin City was contemplating how to land on the Shengshen Continent to seek revenge on him.
Adding another enemy like Cold Palace Emperor Realm sooner or later didn't matter.
The lessons from Senior Rao Yaoyao were clear; when one foolish person dies, another clever one will erge.
"Even if a descendant of the Holy Emperor dies, there's another one; you can never really kill them all. How could the foundation of the Holy Emperor's family be that simple?
But it also depends on the situation.
If Yue Gongli dies, Yue Gongnu would be the one to ascend to power, wouldn't that be one of us?
Indeed, Li Fugui has said, whoever becos the successor of the Holy Emperor must only be loyal to the family...
"Lord Shou!!!"
While pondering, Yue Gongli burst into tears and cried out:
"Haven't I treated you well, ever since I succeeded as the Red Coat Ruler of Dao? I've never targeted you, right?"
"How did Rao Yaoyao treat you, and how did I treat you, why don't you reflect on that?"
"I didn't make a move against you or the Saint Servants in the Four Symbols Secret Realm, did I?"
"Even after entering the Divine Relics, it was all minor skirmishes; at critical monts, we were not enemies but allies, right?"
"Can't you see that Hallmaster Dao wants to kill , he's just a selfish person. You should understand the principle of mutual dependence for survival, Lord Shou!"
"When I'm here, he has to be wary of us joining forces. If I'm not around, the next target might not be you... But you will certainly move up one place on his hit list!"
One must say, the power that a person can unleash in a desperate situation is limitless. Yue Gongli's thought process was so clear at this mont that it didn't seem like he was soone on the verge of cultivation deviation.
Xu Xiaoshou cald down and from Moon Fox's words, he heard the deepest insight:
Hallmaster Dao is a selfish person!
This almost matched the previous warning given by Bazhun'an:
In the Divine Ruins, beco allies with Elder Dao the Flamboyant, but once out of the Divine Ruins, keep your distance.
No one should be Hallmaster Dao's sword.
Because whether it's the killer or the killed, neither will end well.
"Hmph."
Hallmaster Dao heard this and sneered.
Just as he considered himself, he was not a petty person. He didn't care much about the vague hints from Yue Gongli.
Instead, he took the opportunity before Bazhun'an left to detain him:
"Bazhun'an, give so advice!"
Cao Erzhu was rarely able to draw his mind back from the changing situation, but he was confused after hearing this.
It was always said "Let give you so advice," but who has ever left and then uttered such a line?
This strange uncle's thought process and way of speaking were truly not on the sa frequency as normal people.
Forget it, give up on thinking...
Yue Gongli also breathed a sigh of relief.
When Xu Xiaoshou also gave up the idea of killing him, this matter could finally turn the page.
Xu Xiaoshou could clearly feel Bazhun'an about to leave because the figure in the world of the ancient book was becoming as vague as the past, devoid of spiritual intelligence.
But the last intermittent voice of Bazhun'an still ca through, not minding such a small request:
"If I were you... give the body... back to... Erzhu..."
Such advice was unexpected by anyone.
Hallmaster Dao raised his eyebrows slightly and imdiately knew that his earlier guess was not wrong.
Kui Leihan couldn't personally intervene, so he must have broken through the town's defenses in so way to contact Bazhun'an.
Therefore, now that Kui Leihan has yet to achieve sanctification, the way of spiritual cultivation could no longer be used to asure his combat strength.
Penetrating Divine Senses, it has been more than three generations, hasn't it?
Three generations of Penetrating Divine Senses refer to the six transformations controlled by Cao Erzhu.
And since Kui Leihan could break the seal of the town, he must have pushed it forward by at least one realm, or even, more than one?
"Thanks for the advice. I'll do as you said, and now I'll leave you with a final word," regardless of whether Bazhun'an had left, Hallmaster Dao, with a calm deanor, said:
"I will not beco the successor of the Holy Emperor in Qianshi Emperor Realm."
"In the future, I can still work together with the Saint Servants and the First Pavilion in the Sky, look forward to it."
"And as for why..."
Pausing, Hallmaster Dao smiled, pulled a card out of Cao Erzhu's body, and completely detached his self:
"I am only loyal to myself and wouldn't pass the 'Truth-seeking' test of the successor of the Holy Emperor."
