Xiang Beifei was quite surprised to hear everyone discussing the Dao Stones.
He was originally supposed to return earlier, but due to matters in the City of No Pretense, he deliberately delayed for a while, spreading the news to various cities, and even observed for some time in Kongcheng to ensure that the Dao Palace couldn’t seize it before returning.
He hadn’t expected that upon his return, the Human Race was also discussing how to comprehend the Dao Stones, even considering having Xiang Beifei do so.
This made Xiang Beifei find it both amusing and annoying.
However, Fu Yuzi was unaware of this and insisted, "Human King, you’ve been in seclusion for a few days, so you might not know. I specifically went to check, and these five Dao Stones were left by masters in the Ancestral Dao Realm. The Dao intent contained within them is extremely beneficial for our cultivation of the Human Dao. I just glanced at them, and already felt my Dao embryo reach a new realm! The Human King should also try; if you could gain even a little insight, it would be very beneficial for the future of the Human Race."
Fu Yuzi was full of praise for the Dao intent on those five Dao Stones. Although he was already at mid-stage Ascendancy, he still found the Dao intent on the stones brought him inspiration.
His return this time was actually to let Xiang Beifei go and see. If Xiang Beifei could gain insights from the Dao Stones and his cultivation skyrocketed, it would be a great blessing for the Human Race!
Xiang Beifei chuckled reluctantly, just as Chu Jun categorically spoke up in objection!
"The Human King must not go!"
Chu Jun raised his voice, staring unyieldingly at Xiang Beifei, and said, "I don’t care what you’ve done before, but since you’re now the Human King, you can’t just go out and take risks! The Dao Palace is likely waiting for this opportunity, setting a trap to ensnare us all over again!"
He firmly believed the appearance of the Dao Stones in the City of No Pretense was too coincidental and likely orchestrated by the Dao Palace deliberately.
Fu Yuzi said solemnly, "I’ll accompany the Human King. As long as it’s beneficial to the Human King, we must attempt it! If the Human King grows strong, then the Human Race has hope! If it is indeed a trap set by the Dao Palace, I will ensure the Human King’s safety!"
A faint light appeared on Fu Yuzi’s soul.
Fu Yuzi was also a death warrior, and the father of Daoist Weihuo!
After Daoist Weihuo sacrificed himself to protect the Human King, Fu Yuzi always believed his son’s actions were right. If it were him, he would also sacrifice without hesitation for the Human King. As long as Xiang Beifei could become stronger and revive the Human Race, Fu Yuzi had no doubts.
Xiang Beifei looked at Chu Jun and, with interest, asked, "You don’t want me to go?"
Chu Jun didn’t know what Xiang Beifei had done these past few days, but on this matter, his position was unwavering: "You are the Human King! As the Human King, you have to be responsible for everyone! You shouldn’t go to such seemingly dangerous places!" Thɪs chapter is updated by 𝙣𝙤𝙫𝙚𝙡⁂𝙛𝙞𝙧𝙚⁂𝙣𝙚𝙩
He had already secretly made up his mind that no matter how, he would stop Xiang Beifei from going to the City of No Pretense to comprehend the Dao. Xiang Tianxing’s departure had brought too much damage to the Human Race, and he didn’t want similar events to occur again, even if it meant clashing with all the elders, he would oppose it to the end!
Xiang Beifei pondered for a moment, nodded slightly, and said, "Actually, I agree with Elder Chu’s words. We don’t need to go to the City of No Pretense."
Chu Jun was taken aback.
He had initially thought Xiang Beifei would directly ignore his objection. He had already prepared to argue with the Human King to dispel his intention to go to the City of No Pretense.
Unexpectedly, Xiang Beifei agreed with him, leaving Chu Jun suddenly feeling that his efforts were unnecessary.
Chu Jun looked at Xiang Beifei in surprise.
"Isn’t that what you wanted to see?" Xiang Beifei asked.
Chu Jun’s expression changed unpredictably, and he shouted, "You shouldn’t do this just to show me, but to show everyone! Don’t agree with me on the surface while behind my back..."
Chu Xi’s voice came from outside.
Chu Jun’s body suddenly froze. He thought he was hallucinating. How could he hear Chu Xi’s voice?
But soon, a familiar figure ran in from outside, bursting into the main hall and appearing before everyone’s eyes.
"Chu Xi, you... you’re... still alive?"
Chu Jun stared in shock at his grandson in front of him, his mind buzzing.
Was this an illusion?
It had to be an illusion!
Chu Xi was already dead!
Chu Jun couldn’t believe it. No one from the Human Race had ever returned alive after being captured by the Dao Palace. The Dao Palace’s methods were extremely cruel and gave no chance of survival to the Human Race!
But the Chu Xi in front of him, whether in aura, appearance, or soul, was his familiar grandson; there was no mistaking it.
"Ha, the genuine Chu Xi, no need to overthink, your little grandson is returned to you." Li Qianluo stretched lazily.
Chu Jun was in utter disbelief.
Until Chu Xi came over and grabbed his hand, he still felt unable to believe.
Soon he suddenly remembered something and tremblingly took out a jade pendant, which held Chu Xi’s life spark. Only when a person dies does the flame of life extinguish.
Since the Dao Palace gave the execution time, Chu Jun dared not look at his grandson’s life spark, harboring nothing but a faint hope, giving himself one last thought.
But when he examined it closely, he found Chu Xi’s life spark burning fiercely on the jade pendant!
"How is this possible?"
Chu Jun was utterly dumbfounded!
Chu Xi hesitated and hugged Chu Jun’s leg.
