Chapter 3924: Chapter 1879: Peipei
"Lord Shou, why do you say this?"
Emperor Qianshi appeared somewhat surprised and unfamiliar with the words "Dao Qiongcang":
"Dao Qiongcang, though a member of my Qianshi Dao Clan with extraordinary talent, refused to seek the truth and doesn’t want to become the successor of the Holy Emperor."
"He wanders the five regions and has avoided contact with our clan for over thirty years, so how could you confuse him with me?"
Isn’t it?
Xu Xiaoshou laughed, patting the horse by his side.
With a whoosh, the old turtle came back, scared and quickly slipped away.
Emperor Qianshi flipped out a jade bottle the size of a palm, aimed its mouth, and the old turtle was sucked in.
Xu Xiaoshou did not stop him.
Through the branding left on the turtle’s back, he could feel that the world within that jade bottle was just an ordinary biological space.
But after the old turtle entered the bottle, the branding was swiftly erased by stellar energy, leaving nothing.
"Three breaths..."
It took three whole breaths to erase the branding of the Will Dao Disc.
This was enough time for Xu Xiaoshou to do many things, like transferring the branding to the jade bottle and later transferring it elsewhere.
He didn’t do so.
For an ordinary person, "three breaths" may indeed be just that, but for those surnamed Dao, "three breaths" could be them feigning weakness.
Just like in the words of Emperor Qianshi...
"More than thirty years of wandering?"
Xu Xiaoshou smiled, revealing a wolf hair brush in his hand again, "I think it’s more than that, right?"
Emperor Qianshi smiled, indicating he didn’t understand what Xu Xiaoshou was saying, so Xu elaborated:
"Dao Qiongcang’s memory path has super Taoization, from the speed at which you erased my branding just now, your memory path is not beneath his."
"Dao Qiongcang excels in the Divine Secret, and when performed, it is somewhat akin to your Way of Star, utilizing stellar energy."
"Dao Qiongcang is like a dog..."
At this, Xu Xiaoshou paused and stared at him.
Emperor Qianshi’s expression did not change, as if the insult wasn’t directed at him, and he didn’t like to assume it was.
So Xu Xiaoshou became even bolder:
"Wherever Dao Dog passes, he likes to mark his territory with urine."
"When it becomes useful, he performs the ’Great God Descending Technique’ to return."
"In the Divine Relics, he told me the principles of the Great God Descending Technique, and in exchange, we became friends."
Emperor Qianshi listened quietly, seemingly still not understanding what Xu Xiaoshou wanted to express.
Xu Xiaoshou said, "After saying so much, I just want to tell you, Dao Qiongcang, my friend, doesn’t need to disguise in front of me, you and I are bound by life and death."
"Truly no disguise..." Emperor Qianshi laughed, truly helpless, "Lord Shou, Dao Qiongcang is Dao Qiongcang, I am me, we are two, independent entities."
"Being independent, can’t we be one?" Xu Xiaoshou’s words were shocking.
This made Emperor Qianshi fall silent, reminiscent, as if he had heard a similar ridiculous idea long ago.
Seeing him not speak, Xu Xiaoshou changed direction: "When the Demon Ancestor sought to cooperate with me..."
This finally changed Emperor Qianshi’s expression.
He still had a grudge against the two Ancestral God Fate Charts in Xu Xiaoshou’s hands.
Xu Xiaoshou knew this, knowing full well that no one could ignore the matter of collaborating with the Demon Ancestor; the cooperation was fake, but his private communication with the Demon Ancestor and acquiring many things was real.
Besides, at that time, the scene included only him and the Demon Ancestor.
Once he spoke, whatever he said was the truth, and who could question it?
Who dared to question it?
If someone doubted, they could verify it with one of the involved parties, the Demon Ancestor, if they had the courage!
Xu Xiaoshou continued: "At that time, the Demon Ancestor was in a stone hall, inside was a statue, and on the statue, there was a pattern..."
Emperor Qianshi, hearing this, suddenly realized.
With a flip of his hand, a "囧" pattern appeared in his palm: "Lord Shou, is this what you mean?"
Exactly!
An identical pattern!
Even seeing this囧character robot, Xu Xiaoshou still felt a bit apprehensive, for he had only seen this when Dao Qiongcang dealt with the Cursed Yin and the Demon Ancestor, indicating it wasn’t of low level.
At the time of witnessing, it even overturned his entire perception of Dao Qiongcang, suggesting the person could possibly be from ancient times.
Coupled with everything happening, hearing Emperor Qianshi refer to "Dao Ancestor," Xu Xiaoshou couldn’t help but think more.
"Dao Qianshi, do you still want to tell me it’s a coincidence?" Xu Xiaoshou squinted, analyzing that pattern, but found nothing.
It was merely a simple design.
Compared to what in the stone hall could deceive the will of Demon Ancestor, there was a stark difference in energy form.
Emperor Qianshi smiled wryly, "Lord Shou, you’ve said everything; how should I respond?"
After a pause, he responded earnestly:
"It truly is a coincidence!"
Xu Xiaoshou snorted, began writing a "正" character in his notebook with a swift stroke.𝕗𝕣𝐞𝐞𝘄𝐞𝚋𝚗𝗼𝘃𝗲𝗹.𝚌𝕠𝚖
Emperor Qianshi clicked his tongue, eagerly offering an explanation again:
"When my Dao Clan ancestor established his realm, he left a legacy by compiling the ’Taoist Canon.’
"Within the ’Taoist Canon,’ it explicates the three thousand Great Paths in detail, of which only the Way of Star reaches the Ancestral God level, with the Divine Secret just mentioned briefly... Of course, this is not important."
Even after Xu Xiaoshou finished writing the "正" character, Emperor Qianshi wasn’t in a hurry, almost having a resignedly conversational tone:
"An interesting thing is, when the ancestor wrote the ’Taoist Canon,’ they would stamp it with such a pattern as a signature, considered a small hobby."
"Every Dao Clan descendant who has read the ’Taoist Canon’ has seen this pattern and often stamps it around when out due to momentary inspiration, which is usual."
After explaining this coincidence, he spread his hands and looked back at Xu Xiaoshou, saying:
"Dao Qiongcang likes this pattern, and so do I."
"Not just us; all the Dao Clan enjoy it because it’s something left by the ancestor."
