Chapter 803: Chapter 766: The True and False Seeker Path
“Before, I heard you say that the holy emperor of the Empire might very well be our common ancestor. I beca quite interested in him, so I went to so trouble and had soone look into it,” Xu Bai said, looking at the Imperial Daughter with a subdued expression.
Before the Imperial Daughter could react, Little Green and Little Red beca excited, “What did you find out?”
“You want to know too?” Xu Bai smiled, “Then trade it for the Holy Blood Foetus Technique.”
Little Red was about to respond but got abruptly stopped by Little Green’s hand.
At that mont, she collected herself, took a deep breath, and said to Xu Bai, “Do you expect to reap without sowing, based on that single statent? At the very least, you should let us know that the information you’ve uncovered is indeed worth exchanging for.”
“Fair point,” Xu Bai said, nodding in agreent, then extended his right hand.
...
Monts later, a jet-black feather appeared in Xu Bai’s palm.
From that feather, both Little Green and Little Red sensed a familiar aura.
“Little Black?” They trembled, exclaiming in unison.
Eager to take a closer look at the Feather of the Mystic Bird, they realized Xu Bai had already recaptured it one step ahead.
“It seems you are not unfamiliar with this Heavenly Mandate Mystic Bird. That makes things easier, so I don’t have to waste my breath.”
“Thanks to the United Federation of All Realms’ ability to connect all realms, by chance I found Little Black’s bones in a Small World.”
“This Feather of the Mystic Bird is the only thing left from its body. Along with it, there was also a segnt of Little Black’s mories before death.”
Stopping there abruptly, Xu Bai fell silent.
“Little Black is dead?” Little Green and Little Red were shocked at first, then fixed their gaze on Xu Bai.
After whetting their appetite, Xu Bai glanced at them and said with a sneer, “Little Black was much more loyal than both of you. To find traces of my ancestor, it willingly expended its life span, determined to traverse every Small World in the Xuanhuang World.”
“Although it ultimately failed to find Xu Ke before dying, the effort was not entirely fruitless.”
“Xu Ke is very likely still alive,” Xu Bai slowly stated.
Spoken softly and gently, the words hit Little Red and Little Green like a thunderbolt.
“Impossible!” They loudly objected in unison.
“If our master were truly alive, we would surely be able to sense him. But we lost contact with him a long ti ago.”
Little Green furrowed her brows, and a glint of murderous intent flashed in her phoenix eyes, “To deceive us into giving up the Sacred Blood into Embryo thod, you even craft lies pertaining to the master’s life and death…”
Faced with Little Green and Little Red who could lash out at any mont, Xu Bai remained fearless, shaking his head with a sigh, “That’s why, back then, there was a reason why Xu Ke favored and trusted Little Black the most.”
“You both can sense Xu Ke’s life and death, couldn’t Little Black do the sa? Why then did it still believe Xu Ke hadn’t died, persisting in searching thousands of Small Worlds just to find him?”
Saying this, Xu Bai pointed into the air.
An image appeared before him.
It was a mory from Little Black’s corpse showing its traversal through nurous Small Worlds, relentlessly searching for Xu Ke.
Watching the various Small Worlds flashing by in the mory and Little Black’s increasingly slow movents due to aging.
Little Green and Little Red’s bodies trembled slightly, and their faces bore an indescribably complex expression.
The images suddenly stopped, and Xu Bai fell silent, just quietly watching them.
After a long while, he spoke again, “The Xuanhuang Microcosm, though said to be countless, we all know there is actually a limit.”
“Little Black once personally visited so of them and has ruled out those Small Worlds.”
“And what can be confird first is, my ancestor did not leave the Xuanhuang World at that ti.”
“So…”
Finally understanding, a glimr of hope flashed in Little Green’s eyes as she stared at Xu Bai, “Is our master in one of the remaining Small Worlds?”
Xu Bai neither confird nor denied.
Instead, he subtly shifted the topic, “Ordinarily, even knowing this, faced with the vast number of remaining Small Worlds, we would be essentially powerless. But now, it’s different.”
“The Alliance of Thousands of Immortals now seeks to unify the Xuanhuang, and all Small Worlds must be thoroughly swept through and conquered.”
“Under the valiant explorations of countless cultivators risking their lives, the details of many Small Worlds have been clarified. Thus, the possible range where Xu Ke might exist has been narrowed down.”
Little Red finally couldn’t help speaking out, “Doesn’t that an that our master is likely to encounter danger?”
Xu Bai nodded, “If the Alliance finds Xu Ke before we do, based on their current consistent behavior, I fear the odds are more likely bad than good.”
Little Red’s face instantly turned very ugly, “No, I must…”
“Calm down, Red,” Little Green managed to keep her composure.
She first stopped Little Red with a look, then said to Xu Bai, “Your argunt really doesn’t hold up upon scrutiny.”
“Not to ntion the lack of evidence to prove that our master is still alive. Even if he is indeed still in this world, how can we ensure that the Small Worlds already explored by the Alliance…”
Her words were not yet finished when she was interrupted by Xu Bai’s loud laughter.
“Qing, my friend Qing, you truly are the rational one. Indeed, I admit that what I just said is all based on speculation derived from Little Black’s mories. But do you dare deny the possibility that Xu Ke indeed still exists in one of the remaining Small Worlds?”
“Initially faced with the vast unknown of the Small Worlds, Little Black was not afraid. Now that the scope has been greatly reduced, you still dare not face reality.”
“What exactly are you afraid of, friend Qing?” Xu Bai’s gaze was piercing as he stared directly at Little Green, interrogating her.
Little Green’s figure seed as if struck by a heavy hamr, trembling ceaselessly.
Her mouth opened and closed, but no sound ca out.
“Moreover, what I seek is nothing more than a thod casually passed down by Xu Ke in the past. Unexpectedly, as ti has passed, his close companions would actually disregard his life or death for the re Holy Blood Foetus Technique,” Xu Bai said with a slightly mocking tone.
Just as Little Green was about to speak, the Imperial Daughter, who had been silent all this ti, finally spoke up.
“I agree to your request. Whether the Sacred Emperor is dead or alive, I will never let him wander in exile again,” the Imperial Daughter said decisively.
Faced with the Imperial Daughter’s decision, Little Green and Little Red fell silent.
Xu Bai, however, nodded in approval, “A wise decision.”
Then, he waved his hand lightly, and a map of the Xuanhuang World appeared before everyone.
“The Xuanhuang World has undergone earth-shattering changes over thousands of years.”
“However, our United Federation of All Realms has always been quietly observing and recording everything in secret, so those Small Worlds that Little Black rembers having visited can still be matched up.”
