Chapter 3876: Chapter 1863: A Meeting
Buzz!
Yue Gongnu initiated a move.
The Angry Immortal Buddha Sword was once again in her hand, its cold glint reflecting ominously.
She merely gave a cold stare, and the still-pretending-to-be-horrified yet eerily speaking Dao Qiongcang shivered all over, waving his hands repeatedly:
“No need, no need, I’ll speak properly…”
Dao Qiongcang seemed quite intimidated by Yue Gongnu.
In their childhood, he and Yue Gongli had stirred up trouble more than once, both being chastised by their sister’s whip more than once, but that’s not the main point.
The main point lies in Bazhun’an’s influence, which mainly came from the fact that Dao Qiongcang was given favor for Bazhun’an’s sake.
As for past friendships and shadows, to him, they are not worth… well, worth a mention, but in terms of the Great Path, they are barely “worth mentioning.”
Before him stood big sister Yue with her broadsword, Yu Zhiwen, who was tormented by the shadows of the Path Division, and Liu Fuyu who was struck with cold sweat only later—this finally gave some sense of security.
“Don’t bother with him; without anyone managing him, he’s already grown crooked.”
Yue Gongnu snorted coldly, knowing she wasn’t a match for Dao Qiongcang, yet she also knew that he couldn’t do anything to her at this moment, continuing to ask:
“Although somewhat presumptuous, I’d still like to ask, are you certain that your Supreme Master passed away peacefully?”
Liu Fuyu didn’t mind these matters, but hearing this question now, she too lost a certain answer.
“Don’t ask, don’t ask, Yue Gongnu, you should just go to Lingyu Mountain to see your little brat. Keep asking and you’ll get yourself into trouble…”
“Shut up.”
“Ayy~ fine, big sister Yue~”
“…such a mimic!”
Yue Gongnu was truly distracted by Dao Qiongcang in the rear, wanting so much to thrust another sword into his mouth.
Perhaps this was exactly what Dao Qiongcang wanted; she continued with the task at hand, knowing more could actually spark effective thought:
“Don’t misunderstand, what I wish to know is, you and your Supreme Master, who exactly guided you from the very start.”
“Was it the Demon Ancestor’s Spirit, or someone else?”
In fact, with this question, all three women knew, directly turning towards Dao Qiongcang behind them, the answer was ready to pop out.
Yet all three women also understood that Dao Qiongcang could never cooperate.
The fact that he could just stand there, only interfering and not halting the discussion, was already the biggest concession, how could he possibly lay everything bare?
Liu Fuyu listened and still couldn’t grasp it: “Does it make a difference?”
“Of course, there is.” Yue Gongnu knew better which matter was more severe, explaining:
“The Sword God left this back-up plan to suppress the Demon Ancestor’s Spirit; there couldn’t possibly be any gaps left, allowing the Demon Ancestor’s Spirit to use the power of guidance to influence your sword tower guardian, let alone break the sealing power and take Hu out of the sword tower.”
“Thus, to me, the possibility of the Demon Ancestor’s Spirit guiding you is extremely minimal.”
“Impressive, big sister Yue!” Dao Qiongcang behind them gave a thumbs up, “You are correct, but really, don’t push the reasoning further, even if you uncover the mastermind, so what? You can’t move him, nor can you kill him!”
Yue Gongnu ignored this scoundrel, continued:
“And to say that the influence came from elsewhere, or your Supreme Master deviated on purpose, or you had the Demon Ancestor’s Spirit’s arrangements from your inception…”
“This is even more nonsensical!”
Yue Gongnu said this while shaking her head: “The sword tower is banished in the river of time, untouched by the mortal world, specifically to avoid these variables; if the guardian could potentially be polluted by the Demon Ancestor’s Spirit, the guardian could not have existed from the start.”
On this point, Liu Fuyu dared not agree.
The sword tower guardian must exist!
She understood her mission, the sword tower, though banished in the river of time, is almost certainly unseen by people of the greater world, but what if?
Her existence guards precisely this “what if” possibility.
Perhaps a Child of Destiny might accidentally fall into a spatial fragment, and just happen to fall into the spacetime node where the sword tower is located, and enter it.
The unguarded sword tower would inevitably have an incident!
“Besides, what else could it be?” Yu Zhiwen was also baffled listening, both possibilities equaling zero, yet Liu Fuyu managed to take Hu out of the sword tower.
There must be a flaw somewhere!
Where is the issue?
“Ah, it drives me crazy…” Dao Qiongcang behind them slapped his thighs in frustration, a look of wanting to hear something yet always failing to catch the key point, he grumbled:
“You have to think like this.”
“Since these two are impossible, the only thing left for all the incidents to occur is ’coincidence.’”
“Couldn’t it be that the Liu Sword Immortal wanted to leave the sword tower, happened to lack a famed sword companion, and just happened that ’Hu’ this name implies ’guardian’—some mysterious, if you believe it there is, if not there is not, simply took Hu out of the tower, isn’t this feasible?”
He murmured softly, with a tone that completely underestimated the intelligence of the three women, “Do not take ’Hu’, might as well take ’Slaughter’, take ’Kill’, take ’Fierce’… these names, how inauspicious do they sound?”
“Shut up.”
Yue Gongnu finally couldn’t help but scold back.
To one side, Liu Fuyu was taken aback, a slight and imperceptible blush appearing on her face.
To be honest, when she took Hu out of the tower, it was precisely this kind of thought as Dao Qiongcang said—”Hu” indeed sounds much better than “Slaughter”!
“I won’t shut up.” Dao Qiongcang became stubborn, muttering discontentedly, “Not believing in coincidence, could it be I personally visited the sword tower?”
This is even more absurd!
Yue Gongnu almost laughed out loud.
The sword tower could be stumbled upon by those destined, could be encountered by a ’what if’ Child of Destiny, but people like Dao Qiongcang with ulterior motives could never appear near the sword tower from the beginning.
Or rather, the existence of the sword tower itself would actively avoid these people.
With such thoughts, instinctively, Yue Gongnu was going to bypass this direction to think in another direction.
