Chapter 159: Just Say a Word
Lin Wudao was still retching.
He regretted ever wanting this opportunity.
At the same time, he finally understood why the Reincarnation Disk had chosen Liu Shunyi.
After Liu Shunyi emerged, his face was pale and he had kicked himself back in!
What a guy—completely clueless about what happened, and then he gets pinned down by an ugly monster.
As for what happened next, let’s not go into details, because the audit was lurking in the shadows, glaring at him intensely.
At that moment, Lin Wudao’s heart was filled with shadows.
The irony was that Jiang Wenchun was still laughing beside him.
“I told you, your days are going to soar from now on—I wasn’t wrong!”
Lin Wudao’s temple throbbed.
“Can you please pay attention to the details next time you do fortune-telling? The details!”
Jiang Wenchun waved his hand dismissively.
“Forget the details; just tell me if my predictions were right!”
Lin Wudao glanced back at the female Asura and immediately bent over to heave again.
After hurling for a while, Lin Wudao finally looked at Jiang Wenchun and said, “Fine, your predictions are great. But please don’t do it again!”
Jiang Wenchun shook his head.
“I have to; I foresee a bloody disaster for your family!”
Lin Wudao froze for a moment.
“My family? A bloody disaster?”
Lin Wudao’s expression was quirky.
“Do you even know the status of my family across the Immortal Destiny Continent? How could there be a bloody disaster?”
Jiang Wenchun rolled his eyes.
“Isn’t it just the Heavenly Extreme Sacred Ground? Do you think the Heavenly Extreme Sacred Ground is so formidable? No matter how impressive, it can’t compare to the two of us—Yama!”
Lin Wudao’s face suddenly turned a bit unnatural.
Then he stopped retching and quietly asked, “Tell me, is this matter related to the two Yama?”
Jiang Wenchun pondered for a moment.
“Not directly related, but it’s certainly connected!”
Lin Wudao was puzzled.
Jiang Wenchun continued, “I can’t predict specifics, but what I can say is that the calamity facing your family isn’t directly the doing of Yama; however, it is closely tied, and moreover, some people in your family brought this upon themselves.”
“But this is also your opportunity. As a disciple of the Heavenly Extreme Sacred Ground, if you return forcefully in times of crisis, supporting what’s about to collapse and turning the tide, you could replace the Heavenly Extreme Sacred Ground even become its new master!”
Lin Wudao rolled his eyes.
With Jiang Wenchun saying this, it was certainly a bad idea.
Maybe he could truly become the master.
But that position would definitely be a tough gig.
Thinking this way, Lin Wudao shook his head.
“Forget it, I’m not interested in the Heavenly Extreme Sacred Ground!”
Jiang Wenchun stopped talking.
In reality, he had foreseen something else.
Lin Wudao, if he remained in the Underworld, would achieve something monumental.
However, seeing that Lin Wudao could handle that monstrous Asura’s grotesque figure, Jiang Wenchun felt his predictions might not be accurate.
He chose not to mention it.
The reason he predicted Lin Wudao would take over the Heavenly Extreme Sacred Ground was he was certain that after this secret realm, Lin Wudao would definitely become the new lord of it.
But if Lin Wudao chose not to, that was that.
However, Jiang Wenchun still had something to do.
While performing his fortune-telling, he felt a bit uneasy.
That was predicting fortunes for Liu Shunyi and Zhao Gou.
Lately, the fates of these two Yama seemed a bit erratic.
One moment ordinary, the next achieving brilliance that could blind one, only to revert to being ordinary again.
Jiang Wenchun wondered if he had hit a bottleneck in his predictions.
He had heard that Dizang’s divination skills surpassed his own.
He wanted to seek advice.
———
Dizang has been living quite comfortably lately.
Why’s that?
The Hall of Yama is basically his merit-making machine.
No one knows where the Hall of Yama gets all those divine grievances.
Dizang, along with his lion, dispels these grievances daily, and the merits just pile in.
Not to mention, this merit has incredible uses.
Because of having so much merit, his golden body has reached nine zhang.
He can even use this merit to comprehend profound Dao techniques.
It was like the Heavenly Way had opened doors just for him.
However, of late, a voice had been persistently luring him in his mind.
“Little monk, do you wish to become the future Supreme? Just say the word, and I will fulfill your wishes!”
Dizang was like, “……”
“Rest assured, I am the incarnation of Heavenly Way authority. Am I really going to deceive you?”
Dizang took a deep breath.
“How can I trust you?”
The voice sounded a bit exasperated.
“I am the will of the Heavenly Way; the Heavenly Way never lies!”
“Besides, I have a plan, but I can’t tell you the specifics. Just know that once this plan is completed, this world will fully take shape. When that time comes, I will awaken, and with the complete laws of the world, I will distribute power. At that time, I will establish six supreme positions!”
“If you agree, I will grant you one supreme position!”
Dizang furrowed his brows.
Having divination skills, he naturally knew the voice spoke the truth.
Yet, he couldn’t shake the feeling that something was off.
“Well then, tell me, what should I do?”
The little master was still laughing with glee in the background.
“You just need to say one line!”
Dizang blinked.
“What line?”
“Simply say, if I inject blood into bronze, if that bronze comes to life, does it count as my flesh and blood?”
Dizang: “？？？”
“Is it really that simple?”
The voice nodded.
“Yep, just that simple, but you need to speak louder!”
Dizang thought the words had no serious implications.
Without thinking, he blurted out.
“If I inject blood into bronze, and that bronze comes to life, does that count as my flesh and blood?”
Everyone in the Hall of Yama stared blankly at Dizang.
Then slowly, each one fell into terrified silence.
Dizang scratched his head.
“What’s with your reactions?”
The Jiang Wenchun, who came to visit Dizang, saw the bloody aura above Dizang’s head practically about to go crazy and was too scared to ask. He just ran off.
Meanwhile, Dizang had a bad premonition.
He suddenly turned around and saw Liu Shunyi and Zhao Gou no longer playing on the seesaw.
Their eyes glinted a crimson hue, and their expressions were so dark it looked like water could drip from them.
“Heh, this little monk has some guts!”
Liu Shunyi said ominously.
Zhao Gou chimed in sarcastically, “Perfect! My new medical technique has some ideas, but I can’t seem to grasp them fully.”
With that, the two began to walk toward Dizang.
“No, wait! Please, two Yama, let me explain; that line wasn’t my true intention…”
Dizang quickly knelt down.
The golden lion in the background stealthily moved far away from Dizang.
Liu Shunyi and Zhao Gou halted.
“Then explain.”
Liu Shunyi demanded.
Dizang wanted to explain.
But it was as if he was being controlled.
“That should count as my flesh and blood, right?”
“Boom~”
Killing intent radiated from Liu Shunyi and Zhao Gou.
