I Am Loaded with Passive Skills

Chapter 3698: Chapter 1796: Stars_2

"Ah, it’s not important anymore, I’ve thought of a better idea."

Everyone turned to look at Huan’er, the one playing the flute, and saw her eyes sparkling with intensity, clearly in role and ready to speak:

"Young Master Li, you also mentioned that the Star Inheriting Technique, alongside other transcendents... the 3000 paths of sorcery for one realm, the 3000 paths of stars for the sorcery of 3000 realms."

"However, Emperor Qianshi is only a Holy Emperor, whereas the curse of sorcery is from the Ancestral God. Compared to the latter, although Qianshi’s intent is higher, he might be considered ’broad but not deep.’

She truly dares to speak!

Xiaoxiao, the maid of Tingyu Pavilion, in a moment of fantasy time, seriously evaluated the differences between Emperor Qianshi and the Ancestral god of sorcery, and she spoke with great clarity:

"Actually, within the scope of one realm, the path of sorcery is sufficient. The technique of Ancestor Sorcery is righteous, while the Cursed Yin Technique is evil, one defends and one attacks, advancing and retreating with both benefits."

"On the contrary, the Way of Stars, although it encompasses more, can deduce changes in all things through the method of the stars, yet it has driven its own path to an extremely rear position, incapable of ’advancing without hindrance.’

"Sure, Emperor Qianshi is hidden, but is there a possibility that, compared to a swordsman like Yunshan Saint Emperor, he lacks direct combat power, and must only hide and strategize?"

This perspective is quite shrewd.

A mere maid could not possibly have such profound insights.

Clearly, she received much refined teachings and insights from Yue Gongli in her day-to-day life.

Xu Xiaoshou cast a approving glance towards Huan’er, greatly encouraged, she continued:

"Whether from Emperor Qianshi’s status or refining the Way of the Stars to innovate the Divine Secret of the Dao Qiongcang, which is the Hallmaster Dao,"

"Both of these come from Qianshi’s people, both good at strategizing, and both not good at direct combat. Therefore, I feel Ping’er’s worry is actually excessive."

She looked at Ping’er, offered an apologetic smile, and didn’t target anyone, only focusing on whose path was strong or weak in the "fantasy time":

"I think if we truly want to join forces with others, there may be a chance that allies will betray at the last minute, resulting in enemies from both front and back."

"Young Master Li also said, dealing with people like Dao Hallmaster, unexpected assault is the best."

"Similarly, if I were a Holy Emperor, and I wanted to ascend to the Qianshi Emperor Realm... hmm hmm!"

She clenched her fist firmly, spiritedly saying: "I think this way now, I’ll immediately go up and catch him off guard!"

"Good!"

Xu Xiaoshou took the lead in applauding.

The other maids applauded as well, throwing admiring glances at Huan’er, impressed by her courage.

"Dai’er, what do you think?"

Xu Xiaoshou was already somewhat moved, thinking and acting immediately was indeed the best way to target the Qianshi Dao Clan.

Dao Dai’er gave Young Master Li an almost imperceptible cold smile, yet looked towards Huan’er with gentle eyes:

"My sister coincides with my thoughts, Qianshi is nothing, just go up and get it done."

These words were like a bucket of cold water, extinguishing the passionate fire in Xu Xiaoshou’s heart.

If Emperor Qianshi, like Dao Qiongcang, was good at strategizing, and every time he believed he reached Dao Qiongcang’s troops, he would always have a countermeasure to escape,

Wouldn’t confronting Dao Qianshi mean unexpected developments?

If he went directly to the Qianshi Emperor Realm, there was a high probability the Qianshi Holy Emperor already anticipated, and fully armed waiting there for him, trying to counter from the puppet to the true self?

"It’s a headache..."

Xu Xiaoshou rubbed his forehead instinctively.

Without moving much, a maid behind him helped massage it.

He shook his head with a wry smile; a place that could breed bird-men like Dao Qiongcang definitely wasn’t a good grove.

If not necessary, Xu Xiaoshou truly didn’t want to visit the Qianshi Emperor Realm, but this was a great opportunity, and if not seized...

Single disgust is easier to handle than unknown plus disgust.

Plenty of time remains.

Xu Xiaoshou still wanted to ask more questions.

The maids of Tingyu Pavilion were insightful, he gained a lot here.

Suddenly, in the Cold Palace Emperor Realm, the Imprint of Intent from the pollution moved, and Xu Xiaoshou sensed the aura of Yue Gongli and Hua Changdeng.

"Back so soon?"

He couldn’t stay longer, clapping his hands again, addressing the maids: "Fantasy time ends here, this young master is tired, heading to the back mountain to refresh."

With a swoosh, he vanished.

Just about to sit across his leg to massage his shoulders, Ping’er pouted, "Not taking me again..."

Young Master Li was often like this.

Sometimes, he would be filled with poetry and wine.

Sometimes, he’d follow a whim and go somewhere without informing the maids.

It was common; when they saw the owner of Tingyu Pavilion leave, they planned to each go home and rest.

But before going far, on the walkway outside the pavilion, they heard Young Master Li’s voice from afar:

"Brother Hua, you know what kind of person I am."

"Matters are because of Xu Xiaoshou’s doings, you might not know, but on the Shengshen Continent, he has long had the phrase ’One Person Produces Thousands of Children, difficult to discern if his sorcery is righteous or evil,’ transforming into stone? Too simple!"

"Oh oh, misspoke, misspoke, not stone, I mean the matters of your Yunshan Ancestor Stone Carving, truly it’s the effect of his trick."

"With things up to this point, I can only say the compensation that should be, the Cold Palace Emperor Realm will certainly compensate, but the relationship between the Cold Palace and Yunshan can’t be swayed by that scoundrel."

Young Master Li?

All the maids had to stay away, but upon hearing this voice, they had no choice but to return and wait respectfully for orders.

Clearly, it was rare for Young Master Li to use such a humble tone; this time, the Tingyu Pavilion must be welcoming a significant figure.

Soon, a slightly hoarse voice rang out:

"Yue Gongli, regardless of what you say about the Ancestor Stone Carving, I remember it. As for the compensation, you should discuss it with my clan elder."

"The reason I came with you this time is not to discuss these matters; I am looking for Xu Xiaoshou."

Young Master Li smiled: "Why would Xu Xiaoshou be here?"

That hoarse voice reappeared:

"In the Cold Palace Emperor Realm, there is indeed no trace of his Sword Will, but that only proves he hasn’t drawn his sword."

"Since you say he is not just adept at Fantasy Sword Technique but also excels at the Transformation Technique, capable of becoming the Ancestor Stone Carving and transforming into Hua Zhiyao."

"I suspect that when you are not around, he can turn into Yuegong Kui, or even into you, Yue Gongli, deceiving others here is not difficult."

Young Master Li heard this and laughed wantonly.

The maids raised their eyes stealthily and cast secret glances.

They saw him leading a man with a blurred face, bearing extraordinary demeanor, holding a lamp in hand, and a long sword at his waist, slowly entering the Tingyu Pavilion.

"Holy Emperor..."

The maids immediately lowered their brows, feeling a great terror.

Could it be Yunshan Saint Emperor, Hua Changdeng, has personally arrived?

"tap tap."

Footsteps accompanied by loud laughter, coming from afar, drawing near.

"Brother Hua, you’re joking, surely, this is the Tingyu Pavilion..."

Before the person even entered the pavilion, the maids heard Young Master Li loudly questioning: "Someone, tell Yunshan Saint Emperor beside me, earlier, did I come to this Tingyu Pavilion?"

The maids were stunned.

Shuangshuang gleaned something from the earlier conversation between Young Master Li and Yunshan Saint Emperor, and spoke in a trembling voice, shocked: "Yes..."

"See, wasn’t it, so... um?"

Shuangshuang’s vision blurred, feeling her chin being pinched up, she trembled and looked up to see the grim face of Young Master Li:

"What did you say?"

"Yes..."

"Yes to what?"

"Young Master Li, you came earlier, and spoke a lot with us..."

Yue Gongli’s mindset exploded!

He never expected Xu Xiaoshou to be so audacious, sneaking to Tingyu Pavilion to tease his maids during this brief absence!

"What did you talk about?"

Hua Changdeng also came over, looking serious.

The maids trembled, some didn’t dare to speak, until Yue Gongli inquired again, then someone whispered:

"Games..."

"What game?"

"Played a game..."

"What kind of game?"

"Fantasy game..."

"?"

The words "fantasy game" struck Yue Gongli like thunder.

Further inquiries revealed that the maids seemed reluctant to speak, unable to articulate what happened, as if they completely forgot the process.

"What exactly did he mention?"

Yue Gongli was truly cautious about Xu Xiaoshou, now even considering a soul search.

He never thought, after merely carving a broken stone, visiting Yunshan...

His home was burglarized!

If he had been a bit later returning, would all his secrets not have been spilled to the maids?

Dai’er hung her head, silently watching her chest.

Xu Xiaoshou departed freely, leaving her here, a bit too difficult.

Just as Yue Gongli held Shuangshuang, intending a soul search, the frail-sounding Pinger spoke from behind:

"It seems they talked about mourning, and matters of Qianshi?"

Yue Gongli spun around abruptly, not questioning further, but glaring at Pinger with fiery eyes:

"They’ve all forgotten, why do you remember?"
