Chapter 3875: Chapter 1862: Exposed Cards (Part 3)

That’s only natural!

At that time, Xu Xiaoshou was in Jade Capital City.

To find him and take him to the sword tower, besides entering the city, what other method is there? Teleportation?

Li Fuyu still didn’t understand, but on one side, Yu Zhiwen felt a chill upon hearing the words “Jade Capital City” and probably already guessed something.

“Hey hey hey!”

At this moment, near the Southern Underworld coast, accompanied by the waves, two bodies arrived, Dao Qiongcang was busy reconnecting himself while slapping the beach vigorously, raising his voice in urgency:

“Yue Gongnu! The promise was ’three decades of playing the zither in cold prison, with two ears deaf to the affairs outside the window’!”

“When we were in the Southern Underworld together, you were so ignorant and lost, only wanting to see your sweetheart… oh, little~ sweetheart~”

“You haven’t even seen her yet, and you’re already giving them advice, even trying to outmaneuver me?”

“Don’t forget! Who went through so much trouble to save you from dire straits, just to reunite you two—it’s me! It’s me, Dao Qiongcang!” Dao Qiongcang was very angry, with a face looking like having been backstabbed, full of hatred.

Yue Gongnu turned a deaf ear, staring at Li Fuyu:

“Jade Capital City lies at the foot of the sacred mountain, and the great array of the Jade Capital City was created single-handedly by Dao Qiongcang. Trying to seek someone under his watchful eyes, even if you attempt to cover up, will he not be aware?”

Li Fuyu looked in disbelief toward the beach where Dao Qiongcang had pieced his body back together, strenuously supporting himself, trying to stand.

Was it truly him?!

Moreover, when she searched for someone, she didn’t even bother to conceal her actions, doing it so openly without considering “Indirect Guidance,” “Memory Confusion,” and such.

Who would consider that at the time?

It was merely the Supreme Master’s last wish, as long as Xu Xiaoshou was taken away, considering these matters was simply unnecessary worry.

Yue Gongnu saw through the ignorance at a glance.

In the secular world, how can there be a place as clean as the hidden sword tower?

She said in a deep voice: “Others may not know why you seek Xu Xiaoshou, nor pay much attention, but Dao Qiongcang, with his deviousness, cannot ignore this, much less fail to investigate.”

“What do you mean by deviousness? That’s what I call vigilance!” Dao Qiongcang shouted from the back.

Yu Zhiwen probably understood the whole story now and replied:

“So after sensing Hu had left the tower, since Li big sister also came from the sword tower, Dao Qiongcang didn’t need to guide Xu Xiaoshou, he couldn’t even do it.”

“He only needs to use the great array of the Jade Capital City to leave behind Way of the Heavens’ energy movement, indirectly guiding Li big sister—the existence fading, the existence of the sword tower fading, even if Xu Xiaoshou will go to the sword tower, given the urgent priority of matters, he puts cultivation names first, and won’t mind this matter.” Xu Xiaoshou talked to her about guidance and indirect guidance, among other things.

“As things were delayed again and again, in the blink of an eye, half a year passed, until Ghost Buddha descended from the heavens, Third Ancestor appeared, leaving no way out, and thus the matter was shelved?”

Yue Gongnu nodded slightly: “You are astoundingly smart.”

This voice, however, carried little praise, and even the tone was quite heavy, evidently the situation had developed to the point where there was no room for maneuvering.

“Deviousness…”

Li Fuyu trembled with anger, wishing she could draw her sword and cut the figure rising in the distance into pieces, sunk into the Southern Underworld to feed the fish.

The terrifying Dao Qiongcang, with her reputation, was well known, so she dared not provoke, nor had any thought of approaching the Ten High Nobles or challenging them.

She only wanted to fulfill the Supreme Master’s last wish, return to the sword tower, and guard her life.

Little did she expect to unintentionally offend, only to be offended—when did Dao Qiongcang put his tricks on her, she didn’t even know!

No wonder Xu Xiaoshou gave up Ancient Sword Technique and even Ming Sword Skill, a place as great for giving up sword like the sword tower, seeing it once would bring growth, yet he was unmoved from start to finish.

Turns out it’s not indifference; the issue lies in herself and the sword tower, in Xu Xiaoshou’s eyes, both “forced” to lose attraction.

“Indirect Guidance…”

Raising her eyes to the sky, the night is like a wash.

The silent sky, when not gazing at it, exists; when gazing at it, it exists too.

But compared to the former, in the night, there are countless strange eyes that seem to be watching her progress; countless invisible hands guiding her direction forward.

Li Fuyu suddenly felt entirely drained.

She was inside the chessboard, turned into a pawn unknowingly, easily manipulated, realizing with a head bleeding, only to find there’s no retreat.

The night is so desolate, the sky so terrifying.

And when she lowered her gaze back to reality, the creator of terror, like a resurrected corpse, completed piecing himself back together, twisted, and stumbled toward her.

“So it’s you wanting to release the Demon Ancestor’s Spirit from the sword tower to descend upon the five regions?” Li Fuyu’s pupils trembled, unsure what benefit this would bring to Dao Qiongcang.

Dao Qiongcang stumbled with every step, his injuries seemed not fully healed.

His face carried a smile, a sinister pseudo-smile, subtly alarming, like a fake person, completely uninterested in responding to foolish words, just speaking to himself:

“Ladies, ignorance is bliss, stop thinking, and find peace.”

“Continuing to discuss may bring great trouble, terror to come, my advice is best not to, oh~”
