"To talk about 'turning others into your own clone' so casually..."
"It seems that you, the so-called Great Xia Witch King, Common Lord of Central Province, aren't as open and compassionate as Xiao Yue described!"
With a scornful curl of his lips, Li Boyang's current display of disgust and disdain was typical of a child his age.
"A Common Lord has never been a symbol of compassion, and Great Xia is not a peaceful realm."
"'Witch' is wisdom, 'King' is power..."
"With the intelligence and ability you've shown, it shouldn't be hard to understand the true aning behind the title 'Witch King', right?"
Looking at the Red-haired Child opposite, the Witch King spoke in an undeniable tone.
"Every Witch King passes down their wisdom and power..."
"I am rely a part of this collective identity of the 'Witch King', and Xiao Yue is simply the executor of my will."
"This is the fundantal reason Great Xia has endured for thousands of years, and it is the foundation upon which humans and deities can stand as equals..."
As he spoke these words, the Witch King's gaze passed directly over Li Boyang, looking at the pregnant woman behind him.
"You should know what she's carrying, and I hope you don't stop ."
With a slight frown, Li Boyang stood unwavering between the Witch King and the pregnant woman.
"I don't know, so you'd better explain."
The Celestial Destiny Bone Armor spun in his palm, and Li Boyang's tone succeeded in silencing the Witch King.
Of course, the Witch King didn't believe the other party was unaware of what the pregnant woman was carrying.
But he could discern the other's attitude from Li Boyang's tone.
"That fox's true form was the 'Guhuo Bird' from a millennium ago, naturally endowed with the divine power of soul division and immortality."
"In the Qingqiu Kingdom, it turned a wisp of its soul into a descendant of the Nine-tailed Fox, attempting to recreate the nine tails through the infants there."
"However, its nation-destroying acts alard the real Nine Tails, leading to Xiao Yue's actions in Qingqiu Kingdom to exterminate the profane worship."
As if to confirm his words,
the Witch King suddenly raised a finger, and a crisp bird call ca from the belly of the woman behind Li Boyang.
"Chirp!"
It sounded like both a bird's call and a fox's cry...
At the mont this sound erged, the woman imdiately froze in place, looking down in disbelief as she touched her belly.
"Unfortunately, relying on its divine powers, the Guhuo Bird has long divided unknown numbers of soul fragnts."
"Besides Xiao Yue, there are more Ministers of Justice tracking down the whereabouts of its soul pieces, and the fetus in this woman's womb is one such piece."
"If it cannot be eliminated in ti, by the ti this child is born, more fragnts will appear."
"Slaying them is endless, driving them is futile..."
"This is what makes the Guhuo Bird so troubleso, and the main reason for relentlessly hunting it down."
After the Witch King's account, Li Boyang suddenly tightened his grip on the Celestial Destiny Bone Armor and asked,
"I only have one question: when this child is born, will it be a fragnt of the Guhuo Bird's soul?"
Sensing the implication in Li Boyang's words, the Witch King silently looked at the young face again.
Even though the Witch King knew that a simple "yes" could likely eliminate this fragnt of the Guhuo Bird,
but with the Witch King's pride and conscience, he couldn't give such an answer against his heart.
"No, the growth of a Guhuo Bird's soul fragnt requires ti..."
"Without external help, a soul fragnt would need at least ten years to awaken the consciousness and mories of the Guhuo Bird."
In this regard, the Land Turtle stands as a pri example.
With assistance from the Six-tailed Fox, it gained trendous vitality, then transford successfully into an incarnation of the Guhuo Bird by leveraging the power of the Yin Yang Talisman.
"So, does this an that before the child turns ten, he remains himself?"
Silently observing Li Boyang, the Witch King didn't answer further this ti.
"By doing this, you are only planting hidden dangers, making trouble for your future."
"Killing this woman now is the best choice."
Understanding, Li Boyang nodded, ignoring the Witch King's advice and questioning himself.
"Even if this child awakens the Guhuo Bird's mories, he would only possess mories before the fox split its soul."
"This ans he wouldn't rember how the Six-tailed Fox died, and perhaps wouldn't even know about the Land Turtle..."
"Taking it a step further, if the child could actively assimilate those mories from the Guhuo Bird before the age of ten..."
"Could he then, like Xiao Yue's relationship with you, incorporate the Guhuo Bird's consciousness into a part of himself?"
Faced with Li Boyang's statent, the Witch King coolly retorted,
"The Guhuo Bird was a deity a millennium ago, undergoing countless soul division rebirths..."
"How could a child, before the age of ten, possibly digest its mories?"
After a slight pause, the Witch King continued explaining,
"Furthermore, my and Xiao Yue's situation is rely an exception..."
"No matter how the outside world calls or views , I am always human, not a god."
"Xiao Yue was never my clone; he rely executed my will, acting as the Minister of Justice maintaining order in Great Xia."
"Only when he actively uses the Taotie Pattern can he briefly awaken the power I bestowed..."
Without waiting for the Witch King to finish, Li Boyang interrupted,
"To , there's no difference."
"This isn't Great Xia; this is the Hundred Lands Mountain Range."
"You and the Guhuo Bird are both outsiders; only my word matters on my land."
"Regardless of how I choose to deal with this child, you have no right to intervene."
At this point, Li Boyang glanced back at the woman who was tightly shielding her belly, finally speaking with resolute certainty.
"You now have only two choices: leave or die."
Li Boyang's uncompromising attitude amused the usually stern Witch King, making him laugh.
It wasn't a particularly friendly smile.
It seed it had been a long ti since anyone dared oppose his decisions, and his smile was filled with piqued interest.
"It's just a wisp of a soul fragnt; it's not that grave."
"If you're truly able to defeat , what of handling the woman as you see fit?"
The Witch King spoke sincerely.
If Li Boyang truly demonstrated strength matching his tone,
The Witch King thought even handing over the unborn soul fragnt wouldn't be a big deal.
After all, the reason the Witch King pursued the complete extermination of the Guhuo Bird's incarnations,
was fundantally because ordinary people simply couldn't manage the calamity it brought.
On the contrary, the Witch King was quite curious if Li Boyang was rely boasting.
"Your attitude and tone are truly irkso..."
