Song Qingsi's words fell.
It was as if so invisible force had settled the matter.
Bai Zongmang's face broke into a smile, and he waved his hand, saying:
"Alright, that's it for tonight, everyone disperse!"
After saying that, he turned to Song Qingsi and said: "It's rare for Sect Leader Song to personally co to pay respects to the mountain, please follow and let this old Taoist fulfill the duty of a host."
"Then I shall impose," Song Qingsi said.
—It was originally under the pretense of paying respects to the mountain that they ca; even if it was just for a show, it was as it should be.
The two Sect Leaders, along with seven or eight Supre Elders and Precepts Elders, flew away together.
The atmosphere in the Precepts Hall imdiately relaxed.
A disciple bowed to Wu Xiaode, ashad, and said:
"Second Senior Brother, I made a mistake earlier and almost slandered you, please forgive ."
"It's alright, it's alright."
Wu Xiaode patted his shoulder.
Disciples kept coming forward to apologize to Wu Xiaode.
Until now—
The entire world fell into a bated silence.
Nan Li's voice sounded in Wu Xiaode's ear:
"It's here."
Here? What is here?
Wu Xiaode hadn't even had ti to ask when he saw the surrounding void turn blank.
Next—
Countless lines dropped from the void, falling on everyone, tightly wrapping around each person—
Like puppets on strings!
Nan Li's voice followed:
"The Destiny System World is the central secret of the Pilgrimage."
"It operates by manipulating destiny."
"You are the first to break through its power and gain so freedom in this world."
"It must reward you for this achievent."
"Listen carefully, you can choose from the following rewards:"
"1. Obtain a destiny-oriented weapon;"
"2. Master a trendously powerful Destiny Skill;"
"3. Receive a phase-specific small gift, then further explore the Destiny System World;"
Wu Xiaode puzzled: "I rember you said you were here to help find the second deck of 'Pilgrimage Journey'."
"Then you must choose 3, only by fully unraveling the secrets of the Destiny System World can you obtain the card: Destiny System World," Nan Li explained.
"There's really no choice then, I definitely want that card," Wu Xiaode shrugged.
"But this is difficult, and once you choose this option, it will cause a critical consequence," Nan Li warned.
"What consequence?" Wu Xiaode asked.
"The 'Pilgrimage Journey' has hundreds of testing grounds, every new combatant's initial battlefield is 'Paradise', which is the world where you played as a monkey," Nan Li said.
"And then?" Wu Xiaode questioned.
"Originally, after successfully passing the 'Paradise' test, each combatant would enter different battlefields based on their performance."
"But the Destiny System World is the most dominant battlefield, the core of the Pilgrimage Journey."
"When you start exploring it, it will imdiately force all combatants, after passing the 'Paradise' test, to all arrive in its world."
"Which ans—"
"The Evil Demons will easily catch up to this world."
Wu Xiaode listened intently, then dismissively said:
"I thought it would be so serious consequence, let them co—"
"So, are we choosing 3?" Nan Li reaffird.
"Yes, let's get a small gift or sothing, and then begin unraveling the secrets of this world, we must wield the power of destiny!" Wu Xiaode decided.
—The Evil Demons will not gain any advantage against destiny.
It's best if they co to this battlefield!
Nan Li's voice chid again:
"The small gift of the world has been bestowed, you will soon sense its power."
"This is the unique gift of choosing 3."
With Wu Xiaode's choice, all anomalies quietly disappeared.
The world returned to normal.
Wu Xiaode looked around.
After apologizing to him, the disciples left the Precepts Hall one after another.
Yao He, along with a few male disciples, secretively exchanged jade scrolls and then left as well.
The Precepts Hall beca empty.
Unexpectedly, Song Tao ca over with Fu Caier.
"Apologize to Second Senior Brother."
Song Tao pulled Fu Caier out from behind, with a serious expression.
Fu Caier hung her head, looking bewildered and innocently charming:
"Sorry, Senior Brother, I was forced by Junior Master Zhang."
—Is she starting to act like a naive sweet girl now?
Wu Xiaode didn't look at Fu Caier, but turned his gaze to Li Tao.
Song Tao t Wu Xiaode's eyes frankly and said:
"Second Senior Brother, you don't know Junior Sister like I do, everything she's done has been forced by Zhang Xiaoyi, that fool."
"Give her a chance."
Wu Xiaode was still waiting for the "small gift."
—After all, he had just gained an identity and was about to imrse himself in this mysterious world of destiny, killing Fu Caier would only cause trouble.
Big trouble.
"Alright, I understand, you can go."
Wu Xiaode waved them off.
"Second Senior Brother has forgiven Cai Er?" Li Tao asked, still uneasy.
"Hmm, you two should cultivate properly in the future and avoid causing trouble—go back!" Wu Xiaode dismissed the two of them once more.
Li Tao finally breathed a sigh of relief, took Fu Caier's hand, and left.
—If it were any other day, I wouldn't have acted like this.
Today, I witnessed with my own eyes just how terrifying Second Senior Brother's cultivation is.
I can't treat Senior Brother with my old attitude anymore.
Fu Caier lowered her head and followed Li Tao out of the Precepts Hall.
After a while.
Wu Xiaode still hadn't discovered any "little gift."
Forget it.
I'll look for it slowly.
It might be better to wait outside the sect's reception hall for Song Qingsi.
Just as he was about to leave, he suddenly saw a figure silently appear from outside the door, stopping not far in front of him.
Fu Caier.
She had just left with Li Tao, yet she quietly returned to the Precepts Hall!
"Second Senior Brother."
She called softly.
"I'm not dead, is Junior Sister not content? Or are you about to take off your clothes and slander ?" Wu Xiaode laughed.
Fu Caier didn't respond.
She stared at him, carefully sizing him up, and sighed gently:
"Second Senior Brother, I know you hate ."
"Hate you?" Wu Xiaode repeated.
"I not only know you hate , but I also know you used to like ," Fu Caier said.
Fang Yuming was indeed a "simp" in the past.
But Wu Xiaode wasn't about to say any "it's all in the past" nonsense.
"Junior Sister Fu misunderstands; I do not feel love or hate for you."
He said earnestly.
Fu Caier scrutinized him, suddenly said:
"Brother, take ."
Wu Xiaode stepped back, casually using a recording spell.
Fu Caier had been watching him. Seeing this, she couldn't help but laugh:
"Brother truly values his reputation."
She also stepped back.
As if to indicate she ant no harm.
"Brother, my family are farrs. If a sect cultivator hadn't passed by our village, I might already be married by now."
"Plowing fields, weaving cloth, raising children, and ending life in utmost plainness."
"Even after joining the sect, my cultivation talent is lacking, and I'm not from an influential family, with few cultivation resources."
"But I never lose heart."
"I will climb step by step—I believe one day, I will soar to Qingyun."
In the darkness, her expression was unclear, only her voice continued to sound:
"But why won't Brother want ? I am clearly the hardest-working female cultivator in the entire sect, and I'm not unattractive, many people like ."
Wu Xiaode said: "You're a good person, really a good person."
Fu Caier was stunned for a mont.
This was clearly sothing she often said to others.
She lowered her head, showing a self-mocking expression:
"So Brother still minds what I did…"
"Forget it."
"I won't stop. I will do more in the future."
"—But not targeting Second Senior Brother."
"I hope soday, Second Senior Brother changes his mind, ascends Qingyun with , and travels the Void."
After speaking.
She left without looking back.
Wu Xiaode shuddered, as if struck by lightning, his mind filled with images and information.
Lines of small bronze characters erged:
"You've activated the 'little gift:'"
"Qingyun's Ambition."
"When a person with a strong mission appears beside you in the current Destiny World, you can discern their destiny's path."
"You have discerned Fu Caier's future and her intersections with you."
Wu Xiaode slightly closed his eyes.
In his mind, he had already seen his destiny intersection with Fu Caier.
Fang Yuming—
No, it was now Wu Xiaode.
Out of love turned to hate, Wu Xiaode continuously set obstacles on Fu Caier's path of cultivation, tornting her in countless ways, yet she resolved them all, even saving him several tis.
Later, the two finally turned enemies into friends and married happily.
However, at the wedding, Wu Xiaode learned Song Qingsi was surrounded by powerful enemies and imdiately left Fu Caier to rescue Song Qingsi.
Fu Caier thus understood everything, severing emotions and desires, wholeheartedly seeking the Tao.
Later, she finally beca the world's strongest cultivator, founded her own sect, and was revered for generations.
As for Wu Xiaode, after saving Song Qingsi, he once again made life difficult for Fu Caier, eventually having his wickedness seen through by everyone.
Song Qingsi also abandoned him.
Ultimately, Wu Xiaode was surrounded and killed by Fu Caier's followers, his body was devoured by beasts, his soul attached to a wild dog, never to reincarnate.
—What the heck is all this!
Wu Xiaode's mouth twitched, yet his heart was on full alert.
Because this was the destiny path arranged by the Destiny System World!
If he didn't do sothing—
This was to be the end for everything!
