After hearing Zhang Ze's explanation, the eyeball seed to enter vibration mode.
This eyeball of Emperor Xiaojing seed sowhat unable to accept the matter.
But after vibrating for a long while, the eyeball suddenly stopped and beca calm again.
"So you suspected from the very beginning?"
Zhang Ze shook his head.
"Not exactly, when I first ca in, I didn't even know this was my dream, my mory.
"Although I later beca aware of the diary and noticed so discrepancies in Xiao Qingyun's behavior compared to what was recorded. But I didn't think much of it, assuming I had idealized Xiao Qingyun's idiotic actions.
"After all, we were brothers, and he was so foolish; maybe I just felt embarrassed.
"It wasn't until later, when a shadow went to my room to steal the diary, that I realized sothing was amiss.
"The diary wasn't taken, but a Yellow Book was missing. If this had happened in the past, I would have noted it in the diary, but the entry for that day was empty.
"So, I began to suspect that there was a traitor around , and after counting, I finally suspected the anomalous Xiao Qingyun.
"I went over everything he did and found that all his actions matched what was recorded in the history books.
"Soone is playing his role and is desperately maintaining his glorious image.
"Probably only Xiao Qingyun's die-hard fans or his descendants would do sothing like this.
"Anyway, I wouldn't."
Zhang Ze finished speaking and pulled out the diary from his pocket, waving it in front of the eyeball.
"As for how I knew you were Xiaojing, that's even simpler."
"Who else but you, who owns the Jade Book Tower, would hang around inside causing trouble?
"This diary was stolen by you from the Ancestral Master's Tomb on Dragon Tiger Mountain, wasn't it? You wanted to know the contents inside, right?"
The eyeball didn't respond, but its appearance suggested it acknowledged this.
Zhang Ze continued to wave the diary, "But the diary has a restriction; you want to know the contents beyond, you have to walk my path again."
"Unfortunately, I disappeared from history; you can't find information about , so you'd like to pretend, but you can't."
"You're not .
"So you devised this plan, hiding your eye in this Illusion Realm, waiting to catch unaware.
"You left many arrangents just to wait for my revival, to discover the Jade Book Tower, and walk into it foolishly, personally helping you unlock the secrets of the latter half of this diary."
Zhang Ze opened the blank second half of the diary, showing it to the eyeball.
"Smart, worthy of being the close friend of the Grand Ancestor." The eyeball re-rged into a shadow nearby, controlling the slender shadow to gently clap.
"But there is one thing you got wrong, and that's that I actually have no malice toward you.
"So, you don't need to delay any longer, nor waste your energy. With your current abilities, you shouldn't be able to leave here, and that little thing can't help you."
Zhang Ze was stunned, initially thinking Emperor Xiaojing's eyeball had seen through his intentions. But when he ntioned 'little thing,' Zhang Ze was puzzled.
Indeed, he was stalling for ti, but what was the 'little thing'?
Zhang Ze turned back to see that the Little Earth Immortal had sohow run far behind; the little guy was digging into the ground with a wooden knife, seemingly trying to dig a hole to escape.
Zhang Ze cald down at the sight and turned back to the eyeball.
"Actually, I should tell you, that little thing isn't my setup, to be precise, it's yours."
Xiaojing's eyeball, "Mine?"
Zhang Ze, "Yes, it's yours, here's how it ca to be..."
After Zhang Ze briefly explained the Little Earth Immortal's identity and so embarrassing actions, Xiaojing's eyeball fell silent again.
A mont later, it decided to skip this topic.
It was too embarrassing.
"No need to worry; having a few defective items in Magical Artifacts is common. But I truly an no harm, I just wish to propose so cooperation with you."
"Oh, let's hear it." Zhang Ze fished out a thermos cup from his sleeve, took a sip, and signaled to Xiaojing's eyeball like an old man to continue.
He talked too much and his mouth was getting dry.
Emperor Xiaojing's eyeball ignored Zhang Ze's old-tir move, continuing, "You are the Heavenly Destiny People, able to co here. Presumably, you obtained the Profound Identification Treasure Mirror from the Eight Beasts Cave I set up.
"And then, with the Profound Identification Treasure Mirror, you found the Four Saints Tomb I left behind, and finally got the line on this Jade Book Abyss from your female confidante's statue.
"Destined by heaven, and I set up per destiny, this is proof."
Listening to the eyeball's talk, Zhang Ze paused in his hot water drinking and began to ponder.
He pondered what exactly the eyeball was babbling about.
'Eight Beasts Cave?'
'Hmm... That should be referring to Elder Wang's family on Cold City, Aunt Niao's entire family. So that's what the place was called, Eight Beasts Cave? The Profound Identification Treasure Mirror was what he left there?'
'And what on earth is the Four Saints Tomb? Xiangxiang's statue... Oh, it's Xiaoxuan; does the Profound Identification really have a function to indicate robbery? Why didn't it tell ?'
'Forget it, it must be because I didn't ask.'
'So how did I end up in that place... Oh right, it was Brother Feng who fumbled, twisted a Teleportation Talisman into it... Ah right, where has Brother Feng gone? Haven't seen him for so long?'
'As for this Jade Book Abyss... do I need to tell Xiaojing's eyeball that the Jade Book Abyss has long since beco the backyard of the Sword Sect Jing State Sword Pavilion, and the Jade Book Tower was demolished. Now outside the Jade Book Tower has transford into a comrcial street...'
