Master of Strange Dao

Chapter 1548 - 413: It's Got Nothing to Do with Me, the Real Digestion Begins

Every advancement of the village chief results in a complete transcendence beyond his former self. With his current strength, doing the same things takes on a completely different nature.Of course, Yu Ziqing didn't show all his skills, just tested his Body Refinement strength.

"It's rare for you to return. Are you here on business? Will you leave after you're done?"

Hearing this, Yu Ziqing pondered for a moment and immediately gave up his original intention of leaving right after inquiring about the matters.

"I'll stay home for a few months, read some books and study.

You should be aware too, Brother Dong's wife's situation might lead to a big problem.

I can't just ignore it. I need to go to the Big Island, consult others in different places.

Brother Dong and his wife probably don't understand the severity, and I didn't dare speak directly."

"Indeed, they've guarded for so long and helped us. We shouldn't forget our roots. Help if you can."

"Exactly. I won't get into details with you. I need to deal with it..."

Yu Ziqing breathed a sigh of relief. The village chief has always had complaints about him not staying put at home, especially treating it like staying at an inn, which caused dissatisfaction.

Of course, Yu Ziqing could understand the elderly's thoughts. It's best to let them voice their frustrations, appease them verbally; arguing would only lead to the Ten Directions Divine Skills exploding fully.

They had a routine meal together. Once they mostly finished eating, Yu Ziqing found Ruan Renwang who joined the feast.

"I need to ask you something about Brother Dong's wife, what's your view?"

"Don't ask me, I have no idea why this is happening, it shouldn't be this way."

"You didn't share your previous matters with them, right?"

"How would I dare?" Ruan Renwang glanced at Yu Ziqing but didn't stop his actions, continuing to eat and drink.

Yu Ziqing sighed, that's true.

How could you explain saying that a deity was sent to death in the Dadui Seal by Li Qiu?

If you said that, Han Dong would go into an immediate panic on the spot.

Moreover, from the looks of it, the couple hadn't considered the prospect of having a child. Now that they do, with Han Dong looking both anxious and eager to protect the female Ba, lest anything happen.

As long as there's even a sliver of hope, the couple would certainly go all out to birth this child that wasn't supposed to appear.

Especially the female Ba, though she didn't say it, her face of determination and expectant gaze were already at an undisguised stage, determined not to give up under any circumstance.

"Can you confirm the child is indeed normal?"

"Definitely not an ordinary child, but I can confirm it is indeed a child, no problems, a fragile yet tenacious vitality."

"Take a look, is it related to Tao method issues?" Yu Ziqing took out a pile of Jade Scrolls.

"No need to look, I've checked them before, found no problems; such a situation has never occurred before.

However, I think you should consult further with the one below Jinlan Mountain."

"Is there possibly a connection with him?" Yu Ziqing was somewhat confused: "Very well, I happen to have something to seek him about."

Yu Ziqing sneakily left the table and ventured deep into Jinlan Mountain, locating the Jade Tomb.

Over the years, the Jade Tomb doesn't look much different, the portion exposed above the ground remains unchanged.

Upon meeting, Yu Ziqing spread out a heap of Emperor's Liquid before sitting beside it.

"It's been years since we've met, how's your recovery?"

Black energy swirled, forming a few words.

"Very slow, but much faster than before."

"I need to consult with you about something, are you familiar with this kind of power?"

Yu Ziqing took out a scroll, which contained Vast Qi.

"Feels somewhat familiar."

"Was it your former power?"

"Definitely unrelated to me." The Jade Tomb said, this time with certainty.

Yu Ziqing furrowed his brows.

"So, besides you, or your past self.

Another master aside from the Evil Lord wielded such power back then?"

Yu Ziqing casually shared Yang's previous speculation.

The Jade Tomb remained silent for a long time.

"I don't know if I am my former self, nor do I remember.

But what you said is indeed possible, I'm not related to the Evil Lord or the owner of this power.

I just feel familiarity, moreover, there's a sensation I can't quite articulate, it's not quite repugnant."

"Annoying? Disgusted?"

"Pretty much, I don't remember specifics, it's just a feeling resurfaced." The words manifested by the Jade Tomb were somewhat distorted, evidently not feeling well.

"Never mind, don't force it if you can't remember, just recover slowly.

By the way, I wanted to ask about the Ba in Jinlan Mountain's south, pregnant with a child.

Do you sense anything regarding this?"

"I only sensed life burgeoning from death, akin to Creation. I feel it's miraculous, vaguely it reminds me of something but can't recall; yet this matter has no bearing on me, you should consult the one in the Southwest."

"Um, Southwest..." Yu Ziqing glanced toward the Southwest, indeed it's where Juice and those Magic Plants reside.

Yu Ziqing was astounded, it's related to Juice?

My goodness, if it's related to Juice, it does make sense.

However, wouldn't a connection to Juice mean it's linked to him?

Yu Ziqing hurriedly took out Juice's storybook, checked the records of what he recounted to Juice, and sequentially compared with his memories.

Upon finishing, he breathed a sigh of relief, thankfully nothing absurd about zombies was recounted to innocent Juice, leading him astray.

"Recover well, I'll visit you when I get the chance."
