Gu Jianlin was already on the edge of his patience, his face tense as he said, "Can you co down and talk?"
"No way!"
Su Youzhu said coldly, "If I co down, you'll just find an excuse to brush
off."
It had to be admitted, the girl standing in front of Gu Jianlin was the person who understood him better than anyone else in the world. No exceptions.
"The Immortal Lock, as long as you wear it, can block your pain and offset the side effects of the Yin Yang Twin Jade. I specifically consulted the teacher, and he gave this to ."
He lied with a straight face, then quickly changed the subject: "Didn't you say the death of a clone has no side effects?"
Su Youzhu felt a bit guilty for a mont. To be honest, she didn't have a particularly strong concept of Catastrophes. Those figures standing at the pinnacle of two worlds seed to know everything—so annoying.
"Even a Ninth-order Great God couldn't solve it, and you think an alchemy weapon can?"
She sounded skeptical.
"Of course."
Gu Jianlin had even hidden the master lock of the Symbiotic Lock in advance.
The art of lying was to mix nine parts truth with one part falsehood.
Although Su Youzhu had her doubts, she had no evidence, so she puffed out her cheeks and said, "Honestly, you don't have to worry so much about . The teacher left
with quite a few things while he was alive. I even have a secret little warehouse. Besides the Yin Yang Twin Jade, there are two other Mythical Weapons."
She started counting on her fingers: "The teacher also left so coordinates in the Qilin Immortal Palace. I bet there's a lot of good stuff stashed there."
Gu Jianlin's mind stirred: "Secret outposts he left behind?"
Su Youzhu nodded affirmatively.
Gu Jianlin asked, "What are those two Mythical Weapons?"
Su Youzhu, sitting on his leg, pulled back her short pale-green hair, revealing her delicate, petite ears. Hanging from her earlobe was a teardrop-shaped pendant: "The Tear of the Abyss, a Mythical Weapon unearthed from Atlantis. Its effect is to evade all forms of divination and fortune-telling. The Ether Association has investigated our family many tis but has never found anything on ."
She paused: "This item has a side effect; sotis it makes you forget you're an Ascender."
Gu Jianlin nodded slightly: "Old Gu was a crafty man. Whatever he left for you must have a deeper intent."
No wonder this girl could conceal her Extraordinary Abilities from him whenever she wasn't using them. He wouldn't even sense her presence.
In the Extraordinary World, all her activity relied on Mirror Image Clones.
Aside from her growth in strength, she seed like a slightly dazed yet aloof beauty.
You could sense she had secrets, but never exactly what they were.
Especially this side effect; it was an impeccable disguise.
"Absolutely."
Su Youzhu then pulled out a silver cross necklace from her neckline and remarked earnestly, "The Heavenly Holy Cross, a Mythical Weapon unearthed from the Dead Sea. Its effect is to neutralize all poisons and ntal interference, but it requires monthly sacrifices of deeply sinful prisoners to function. That's easy enough to handle."
She paused: "You know about the Yin Yang Twin Jade already. Its effect is creating a Mirror Image Clone. The clone carries over all Mythical Weapons and rank abilities from the original body—extrely handy."
After pondering for a mont, Gu Jianlin admitted, "Indeed, the Mirror Image Clone is quite useful. As long as it doesn't encounter the barrier of the Red Qilin Ancestor, its safety level is significantly higher. Hmm… can it still be used in the future?"
Su Youzhu nodded: "Yes, once I've recovered from my injuries."
Gu Jianlin felt much more at ease hearing that.
"Oh, by the way!"
Su Youzhu suddenly looked at him intently and said seriously, "I need to ask you sothing."
Gu Jianlin raised an eyebrow: "What?"
"About the fragnts of the Qilin Wedge."
Su Youzhu spoke deliberately: "Are you sure that thing isn't in your hands?"
Feeling a bit uneasy, Gu Jianlin shook his head.
If he wanted, he could give the Qilin Wedge fragnts to anyone freely.
After all, the artifact had already returned to its place and was under his full control.
Even if he gave it away, he could summon it back anyti with a sword.
"Then how did you reverse the authority of the Red Qilin Ancestor?"
Su Youzhu furrowed her elegant brows.
Gu Jianlin replied with suspicion: "You didn't see it?"
He had felt pretty cool during that sword-drawn mont.
Su Youzhu curled her lips: "I was almost asleep by then."
After a pause, Gu Jianlin found the perfect scapegoat: "The teacher helped ."
Su Youzhu's eyes widened: "Catastrophe-level entities can reverse the authority domain of an Ancestor?"
The teacher had once explained it to him.
A Catastrophe-level being was defined as soone capable of confronting Supre-level entities in the real world.
So exceptionally powerful ones, with various supportive ans, could even wrestle Ancient Supres in the Ancient God Realm.
That said, the price for doing so was imnse.
Ancient Supres could afford countless mistakes, but a Catastrophe taking them on essentially got one shot at it.
Because after one battle, a Catastrophe's life was pretty much at its end.
Technically, Catastrophes could defeat or kill an Ancestor. It would be easier in the real world and harder in the Ancient God Realm. But outright domination was impossible in any scenario.
As for interfering with an Ancestor's authority, that was inconceivable.
Such powers were exclusively within the realm of Supres.
"Other Catastrophes might not manage it, but the teacher could."
Gu Jianlin didn't actually know if the teacher could, but he figured he might as well brag.
Su Youzhu was visibly astonished: "So the King of Qing has already reached such heights? Does that an he possesses power equivalent to a Supre?"
