Chu Mo laughed and said, "Are you afraid that one day, if our sibling relationship is exposed, they will retaliate?"
Chu Chu's face showed a hint of concern: "This situation will most likely happen, eight or nine tis out of ten."
"Then do you have any good suggestions?" Chu Mo asked.
Chu Chu looked at Chu Mo, hesitating for a mont.
Chu Mo said, "You and I are siblings, the closest people in this world. Is there anything we cannot speak of?"
"I… I feel that my thoughts might be a bit selfish. After all, I am also a mber of the Chu Clan Royal Family. Likewise, I have also awakened the mories of my past life. My hatred for those ancient clans is no less than yours, brother," Chu Chu said.
"It's okay, whatever suggestions you have, just say them. We can discuss them together. Actually, the big picture is sothing I've always had in mind. What I've been doing is waiting for you," Chu Mo said with a smile.
Chu Chu looked at Chu Mo in surprise, her eyes reflecting a hint of emotion: "Waiting for ?"
"Yes, waiting for you," Chu Mo said. "If in the initial stage, I hadn't used such sharp ans, how could I have intimidated those people? If I only killed their Supre ancestors and punished the evil ones, would those ancient clans' descendants reflect? Would they hate their own clans as deeply? If I didn't do this, how could your elite alliance turn the tide? Make those mbers in the alliance loyal to you? Loyal to the entire elite alliance? How then... Could you turn the elite alliance into an unbreakable behemoth, overshadowing the entire Tunnel world?"
Chu Chu stared at her brother in amazent. She truly hadn't realized the deeper intent behind her brother's suppression of those ancient clans over the years. She always thought her brother was just a peerless warrior with exceptional talent. But she hadn't expected that Chu Mo's perspective was not inferior to hers at all!
She too awakened the mories of her past life. In those mories, the incomparable Young Master Chu wasn't soone who understood power dynamics and had insight. He was intelligent! Exceptionally intelligent! Almost able to grasp anything at a glance! But when it ca to vision and scale, he truly fell short.
If the Young Master Chu in the previous life had the vision and scale of Chu Mo now, how could the thirteen ancient clans have the opportunity to annihilate the royal family of the Chu Clan?
If that were the case, everyone's destiny would have been completely different.
Thus, Chu Chu was truly shocked. She even looked at Chu Mo incredulously.
Chu Mo reached out with his hand and waved it in front of her eyes with a smile: "Stunned?"
"Uh... Stunned." Chu Chu grabbed Chu Mo's hand, her eyes a little moist: "Brother, if I had known your plans earlier, I wouldn't have had to co in the first place. I'm sorry that I still don't understand you well enough."
Chu Mo laughed heartily: "What's the problem? You just need to prepare well to be your queen!"
Chu Mo's words were spoken with absolute determination!
The ancient clans are decaying, as is the whole Tunnel world!
Only Chu Chu, Luo Feihong, and Gu Bingbing, this group of people, could truly bring about significant changes in the Tunnel world. They could even bring about true reform!
Chu Chu said with so feeling: "Before coming, Bingbing and Feihong still had so concerns. They knew very well about your hatred for the thirteen ancient clans. They themselves said that if they were in the sa position, rely punishing the evil ones wouldn't be enough. They won't rest until the thirteen ancient clans are completely overturned. In my heart, I actually think the sa way..."
Chu Mo smiled: "Even if we truly defeat all thirteen ancient clans, the elite alliance won't be able to reap all the benefits. Instead, it would accomplish sothing for other forces in the Tunnel world. At least it would lead to a thousand years of chaos. Countless living beings would suffer. Even though my heart is filled with hatred, I don't want this world to turn out that way."
At this, Chu Chu let out a long sigh of relief and said, "However, even if we don't completely defeat the thirteen ancient clans, you mustn't let them off lightly."
Chu Mo nodded: "Don't worry about that. None of the people who participated in the destruction of the royal family of the Chu Clan in the past will escape. On the ruins of the Chu Clan Royal Family, there will be places to set up flagpoles and hang heads!"
Chu Chu's eyes showed a spark of excitent, and she then said: "Since that's the case, we need to calculate how we can make this matter most advantageous for us. Since you are rebuilding the royal family, don't stop now. I will cooperate with you from my end so that the Chu Clan Royal Family can rise again in the world. What we must truly do is in the future, the strongest family in the Tunnel world… The Chu Clan Royal Family! The largest force, the elite alliance! Those ancient clans, without their Supre ancestors, their decline... is only a matter of ti."
"Alright, these things you're better at than ," Chu Mo said with a gentle smile.
"I used to think so too, but now... I finally understand that you're actually stronger!" Chu Chu laughed and then took out the jade slip that Spiritual Master Lingtong entrusted her to pass on to Chu Mo: "Brother, Spiritual Master Lingtong has left."
"He has indeed gone," Chu Mo sighed softly.
"What, did you expect this long ago?" Chu Chu asked in surprise.
Chu Mo nodded: "Actually, after we finished that fight with the Shalan Bandits together, I knew sooner or later he'd leave."
As he spoke, he took this jade slip in his hand, not looking at its contents imdiately, but rather gazing at Chu Chu, speaking softly: "His ambitions were too great. He wanted to gather all the resources of the Tunnel and create the largest array, using it to open that path to the heavens."
"This… this is too exaggerated!" Even though Chu Chu was well inford and had trained herself to the point of being calm and unflappable over the years, she was still deeply shocked by Chu Mo's words.
Collecting all the resources of the Tunnel world to create the largest array and trying to open the heavenly path… Is this even possible? This idea seems overly ambitious, doesn't it?
However, Chu Chu's level was not low, her cultivation profound. After saying this, she seriously calculated for a while, and gradually a look of astonishnt appeared on her face. Because she discovered that this possibility truly exists!
"Actually, it's not that exaggerated. To truly realize that step, although very difficult, it's not impossible. However, he might have sensed sothing from the attitudes of Supre Wuji and Imasurable Buddha. So, he ultimately chose to leave." Chu Mo did not hide anything from his sister.
Chu Chu looked at Chu Mo and said, "What was the attitude of those two elders? Speaking of which, I've always been a bit curious..."
Chu Mo smiled and said, "Why did they help ?"
Chu Chu nodded.
Chu Mo said, "I can't say the exact reason because they actually never told . But based on my guess, combined with mories from the previous life, I feel this matter should be related to the heavenly path."
"Ah?" Chu Chu didn't expect the matter to tie back to the heavenly path.
Chu Mo said, "All along, all the top figures in the Tunnel world know about these two transcendent beings, one guarding the East, one guarding the West. It's because of their existence that the entire Tunnel world has remained safe and sound until today."
Chu Chu nodded: "Yes, I've heard that it's because these two supre beings guard the East and West that the entire Tunnel is very stable. Otherwise, it seems that endless ages ago, the Tunnel already had the risk of collapsing."
"What kind of world this truly is, even these two supre beings cannot say for sure. However, within the Tunnel, the presence of those Supre ancestors poses a great crisis to the Tunnel world," Chu Mo said calmly.
Chu Chu was directly stunned. She first looked at Chu Mo incredulously, then her face showed a thoughtful expression, murmuring, "The more such existences there are, the greater the consumption for the Tunnel. Cultivators and living beings in the ancestral realm, no matter how they cultivate, won't affect the overall situation of the Tunnel. But it's different for Supre ancestors..."
"They will reincarnate," Chu Mo said. "Each ti they reincarnate, they will cultivate back. But the resources in the Tunnel cannot reincarnate, and the growth rate of those great dicines cannot match the frequency of these Supre ancestors' reincarnations. The top resources in the Tunnel have actually been decreasing all the ti. This is why, like in the Ancient Zhao Clan, those four ancient ancestors were unwilling to let Zhao Di step into the ancestral realm. It's because each additional Supre ancestor ans less resources in the Tunnel."
Chu Chu said, "Then, when our ancestors created the Investiture of the Gods, wasn't it for the sa reason?"
"That was part of the consideration, but more than that, it was probably aid at countering the Heavenly Dao. Unfortunately, he failed and brought endless troubles to the Tunnel," Chu Mo said calmly.
Chu Chu looked at Chu Mo and said, "Then, this ti, if the majority of Supre ancestors in the Tunnel truly et their end, the entire Tunnel world will definitely beco better, right?"
"Theoretically, it's like that. But I can't say how it would actually turn out," Chu Mo said with a bitter smile. "After all, once this batch of Supre ancestors falls, a new batch might appear. But there surely will be a long process."
"And then, that long process is our journey to find the path to the heavens?" Chu Chu looked at Chu Mo.
Chu Mo glanced at the jade slip in his hand: "So secrets of the heavenly path may lie here."
Chu Chu didn't know how many tis she had been shocked. This thing had been in her hands for a long ti, but she had never thought of looking at it. Even though it was her brother's item.
"You say Spiritual Master Lingtong might hold the secrets of the heavenly path?" Chu Chu asked in surprise.
Chu Mo smiled and nodded.
Chu Chu then said, "Why didn't he walk that path himself? Why was he laying out his plans for ten thousand ages?"
Chu Mo shook his head and said, "Because that path is very difficult."
