I Am Loaded with Passive Skills - Chapter 2005
Chapter 1881 Prying
“It has to be the Eight Lords!”
In the Ancient and Modern Forget-Your-Sorrows Tower, Xu Xiaoshou leaned against the window, looking at the sea of swords covering the sky outside, his face full of sobs.
Just relying on the Absolute Imperial System of Ten Thousand Swords Technique, he could summon so many swords within the Five Realms.
I can only say that there is no false reputation under a great name!
Ba Zun An, there is still something.
In fact, even if the Emperor’s Seal was used to command the younger generation…oh, the famous swords of their peers were easy.
When it comes to the level of Gou Wu Yue and Feng Ting Chen, it can be seen that if the two want to resist, they will probably have to remain in a stalemate for a while, just like Hua Changdeng’s ghost hunting.
This is still terrifying.
If something like this happened during a war, who could withstand the shaking of their own sword at the critical moment?
Fortunately, the face from those few pots of wine played a role.
Including the ones taken by force from the area around Linghu Lake, the ones in Xiaokongtong sack, the ones in the storyteller’s Yin-Yang Book of Life and Death, and the ones from Hua Changdeng…
There were twenty famous swords on the scene, but the only one missing was the Yanmang on his body!
“Master, the whole world is waiting for you.”
On the other side of the window, Kong Yuhen was also looking at the situation outside.
He had a faint smile on his face and spoke in a gentle voice, and you couldn’t tell at all that the two of them had just had a big fight.
“I know.”
Xu Xiaoshou smiled and nodded, but did not jump out of the window to go to the Linghu battlefield.
Instead, he withdrew his gaze and looked at Kong Yuhen: “Original True Tablet: Time, you really can’t give it to me?”
After countless years of hardships and trials, he now has a very stable mentality.
Although I was able to argue with Kong Yuhen until I was red in the face, now that the situation is related to the war, I can be very relaxed.
He knew clearly that after the eight masters took the lead, he was the only one left in charge.
There is no support behind me.
He has become everyone’s hope and there is no need to rush.
Kong Yuhen smiled bitterly: “It’s not that I don’t want to give it to you, but I really can’t give it to you.”
“The Four Ancestors reincarnated, and thus the Origin of the True Tablet came into being.”
“The original intention is to pass down each of their ways, which corresponds to an opportunity for either the Four Patriarchs themselves or for those who come after them.”
“Although in the end, it was still intercepted by the other ancestors, blocking the opportunity.”
“And Shi Zu …”
Kong Yuhen paused, confusion in his eyes, “Whether the Time Ancestor reincarnated or not, I don’t know. I feel like I have obtained the original tablet, but I really don’t know where it is and how to give it to you.”
Xu Xiaoshou nodded thoughtfully: “So, you have the intention, but not the strength?”
“Yes…” Kong Yuhen replied hesitantly.
“That means, you can make a promise that if you get the True Origin Tablet in the future, you will give it to me the first time, no matter who asks you for it?” Xu Xiaoshou didn’t even give instructions, but made it clear.
Kong Yuhen’s eyelids drooped and he glanced at the situation outside the window. He wondered why Xu Xiaoshou could still be so calm.
It was he who should be nervous and anxious…
“yes!”
He finally stopped arguing.
After arguing for so long, he was tired.
Xu Xiaoshou is the tough guy at the negotiation table. He will not let go of the last of the six ancient gates, the Gate of Reincarnation. The rest are easy to talk about, but he will force himself to talk if they are difficult to talk about.
I can’t beat this guy…
“I’m not taking your things for nothing, Brother Anxious.” Xu Xiaoshou smiled and patted him on the shoulder.
The gate of reincarnation, after appearing in the long river of time, entered the space of consciousness just like the golden bead at the source of time and space.
With a thought, the thing was taken out.
“This is the symbol of our friendship!”
Putting the wooden door pendant in his hand into the other’s hand, Xu Xiaoshou smiled brightly, shook Kong Yuhen’s hand in a friendly manner, and shook it:
“Here, with your help, I have mastered the incarnations of the Heavenly Ancestor, the Dragon Ancestor, and the War Ancestor respectively.”
“Original True Tablet: Of course, it is just a promise, but I believe that Brother Yuhen is as good as his word and will give it to me later.”
After a pause, Xu Xiaoshou became more serious:
“Reshaping the current situation will benefit the present and future generations. I personally support it very much.”
“Even though I know that you have colluded with the Demon Ancestor and the Demonic Yin, I think the friendship between you and me in the Re-created Realm is much, much higher than that.”
I am left with only hatred on my face and don’t know how to respond.
Xu Xiaoshou finally stopped shaking, pulled his hand out, and took the initiative to say: “I rarely pay friendship fees. Even if Dao Qiongcang made friends with me, he gave me a lot of benefits.”
Kong Yuhen got the final reincarnation door, so how could he not hear what Xu Xiaoshou meant: “Don’t worry, Master Shou, I will definitely do what I promised you.”
“No!”
Xu Xiaoshou shook his head: “Brother Yuhen, I think you misunderstood me. How could Xu be a person who would repay a favor?”
do not you?
Kong Yuhen was stunned, not understanding what he meant.
“What I mean is that negotiations are negotiations, and transactions are transactions. You help me cultivate the Ancestral God Incarnation, and Ba Zunan and I will give you the two ancient gates. These are all things that have been agreed upon in advance, and they do not count as friendship fees.”
“That……”
“Brother Yuhen, you should know that I have met the Demon Ancestor in the Long River of Time?” Xu Xiaoshou raised his eyebrows.
I feel a little worried because of the remaining hatred.
He could never catch up with Xu Xiaoshou’s train of thought, and was at his mercy at the negotiating table, not knowing how to respond.
“What the Demon Ancestor talked to me about is not very important.”
“But in the long river of time, I have seen other ancestral gods. I also want to tell Brother Yuhen about this.”
Kong Yuhen felt even more uneasy.
He doesn’t really believe in “not very important”.
Since Xu Xiaoshou dared to bring it up, it means it is of vital importance. Maybe they have also reached some kind of cooperation?
And another ancestor god in the long river of time…
“Brother Yuhen, do you want to know your life experience?”
As soon as these words came out, Kong Yuhen’s pupils trembled, “You know?”
“I know.”
Xu Xiaoshou answered with absolute certainty.
Not like the Eight Lords, not like Dao Qiongcang, not like the Demon Ancestor, not like Suoyin, not like any one he had ever met or asked in various forms in various generations.
He can give an accurate answer…
This kind of enlightenment arose in my heart, and I didn’t know whether the remaining hatred was due to Xu Xiaoshou’s confidence or some kind of guidance I received.
His expression finally became extremely serious. This friend fee was really worth it. He said with emotion:
“Shou Ye…”
“But it’s not free.” Xu Xiaoshou’s words killed all of Kong Yuhen’s feelings.
He took a deep breath and said, “Please speak, sir.”
“I can give you three choices.” Xu Xiaoshou held up three fingers, “The worst choice, the middle choice, and the best choice. The decision is yours, and I won’t interfere.”
Kong Yuhen opened his mouth and said, “What’s the next choice?” He decided to do them one by one.
“The next best choice is to tell you about the future and past of the Ancestral God, the mystery of the long river of time, the way of time and space, as well as your life experience, all the ins and outs of your past, present, and future, the causes and consequences…”
Hearing this, Kong Yuhen’s Adam’s apple rolled and his expression froze.
So much?
He interrupted, “What do I have to pay?”
“Brother Yuhen, time, no matter how long or short it is for you, is just a blink of an eye. Am I right?”
Kong Yuhen didn’t dare to respond to Xu Xiaoshou’s words, and asked again: “What do I need to pay for the next choice?”
“Not much.” Xu Xiaoshou said casually: “You will work for me for ten thousand years.”
Kong Yuhen’s eyes went dark, and he gave up immediately: “What’s the middle choice?”
Xu Xiaoshou spread his hands in confusion and said in surprise: “Brother Yuhen, you can actually reconsider it. The Demon Ancestor wants to sell me this secret, and he dares to ask for a huge sum of 129,600 years without even giving me complete information. I only want 10,000 years from you, and you can give me even more. Whose sincerity is enough? Think about it yourself.”
“The best choice!”
“Okay. Zhong means the golden mean, too much is as bad as too little, equal exchange… I can still tell you this secret, and I can also guarantee that every generation of you can know this secret, as long as I am alive and remember it.”
“cost?”
“Brother Yuhen, you are the best choice. You no longer need to work for me or help me. You just need to promise to sever your relationship with all the ancestral gods such as Demon Ancestor and Suyin in this game. The deal will be over when any of the five ancestors of ‘Holy Magic Medicine Suspicious’ dies. After that, you can do whatever you want, even stab me in the back.” Xu Xiaoshou pointed outside the window with a smile.
Kong Yuhen was silent for a moment.
He once again felt the intense pressure.
Although the person in front of him was just a very young guy, he actually felt the same oppressive feeling as the Demon Ancestor and the Suyin in front of him.
What exactly does he want to do? What is he planning?
The Eight Lords dared to trust him with their backs and the future situation, so it must be for a purpose…
“Brother Yuhen?”
Xu Xiaoshou fanned his hands in front of him.
Kong Yuhen came back to his senses: “Master Shou, it’s just empty talk. How can you guarantee that what you said is worth the price?”
If what Xu Xiaoshou said is true, it must be worth the money.
The best choice, but it is just a neutral stance, slightly leaning towards the Holy Slave, and there is no need to put in any effort, so Kong Yuhen can accept it.
He believes that this is the best option and there is no better choice.
The problem is, if what Xu Xiaoshou said is false, he is just making empty promises…
“I know what you are worried about, but I won’t promise you anything.” Xu Xiaoshou didn’t want to prove himself unnecessarily, but just shook his head slowly:
“The Demon Ancestor was just painting a pie in the sky for me at that time.”
“But I can tell you directly now, so it’s a bonus.”
“Brother Yuhen, in the long river of time, in a place that even you can’t see, I have already passed through an era and seen too many unknowns…”
Kong Yuhen was stunned.
Xu Xiaoshou then gave another drastic measure: “Because of this, I am sure that reshaping the realm is no longer a castle in the air, so I am willing to give you this reincarnation door to renew our friendship, rather than simply an equal exchange.”
Kong Yuhen was silent.
The Ancient and Modern Forget-Sorrow Tower was silent for a long time.
Xu Xiaoshou did not interrupt him to think. After giving him enough time, he changed the subject: “Brother Yuhen, what do you think Dao Qiongcang is doing now?”
Dao Qiong Cang…
Kong Yuhen has seen this person before.
He was also asking for an answer, an answer to an unknown question.
However, no matter how unpredictable this person was, the result he gave in the end was only specious and far less straightforward than Xu Xiaoshou’s at this moment.
This man’s ambition and hatred were revealed.
Not satisfied with the Tenth Ancestor at all!
He was also planning what the Demon Ancestor was thinking, what the Medicine Ancestor was plotting, and what the Demon Ancestor was seeking, but so far he has sunk below the surface…
Dao Qiongcan, planning a bigger one!
It is even more difficult to bear the empty hatred.
Xu Xiaoshou always managed to use these miscellaneous things to increase his bargaining chips, and he no longer knew how to start.
Xu Xiaoshou knew how to start the conversation. He knew how to say it:
“Eighth Lord thinks highly of me. We have been friends since the White Cave and he has helped me a lot. I don’t say it, but I am very grateful in my heart. So this time he came out alone, I am willing to clean up the mess for him and help him clean up his mess… Brother Yuhen, why don’t you think about why?”
“Dao Qiongcang was afraid of me, and planned to move from the Four Symbols Secret Realm to Qingyuan Mountain and Changde Town. I knew he actually had a chance to take me down, but in the end he gave up on his own initiative and chose to befriend me in the God’s Relics. He paid the friendship fee, and I am willing to make him my friend… Brother Yuhen, why don’t you think about why?”
“The Demon Ancestor is friendly to me, but we have never met before. He is the ancestor god, and I am an ant. We have only met in the long river of time, but he wants to cooperate with me. Is he after my future, or is he after something in me… Brother Yuhen, can you think about it carefully again? What is the Demon Ancestor thinking?”
I don’t know why, so just take this as an example.
When Kong Yuhen looked again, the figure in front of him was no longer a simple young man, but seemed to have transformed into another ancestor god.
With a gentle smile on his face, he also sat on the chessboard in the starry sky. Opposite him, playing against him were several great ancestral gods who represented the supreme power in the contemporary era, as well as the ten thrones who had the ambition and ability to aspire to the supreme power.
“If you give me a peach, I will give you a plum in return. I, Xu Xiaoshou, have always been such a person.”
“The number of people and ancestors in the Five Realms who can understand me is very small, but I have learned my own weight over the long river of time.”
“This is not boasting, I am stating a fact.”
Xu Xiaoshou stared at the opposite side and said in a soothing and calm voice: “Kong Yuhen, do you still remember the scene when I first entered the Gujin Wangyou Tower?”
He pointed to the wooden wall behind the tea table where Shi Zuying’s stick was missing.
I look on with only regret.
Of course he remembers.
Xu Xiaoshou at that time was so immature and green.
He couldn’t even break free from the power of time in the attic and needed his own help.
“You are the first person to mention ‘visitors from another world’. You can probably guess that my past and my future are extraordinary, so you gave me the Shizu Shadow Staff.”
“And it is this staff that has helped me to overcome crises and survive many times. I remember it in my heart. So now!”
Xu Xiaoshou pointed at the ground and at the moment: “The middle choice is an equal trade choice… From the bottom of my heart, I will only give you this option when you are my friend.”
Just enough.
Kong Yuhen also understood, sighed softly, clasped his fists in thanks, and then changed the subject:
“What about the best choice, Master?”
Xu Xiaoshou pointed out the window, looked at Hua and Ba, and did not answer directly. He said meaningfully: “You should be able to see that they will all be ‘out’.”
Kong Yuhen turned around and looked, but said nothing.
“The best choice is simpler.”
“I will still tell you everything, but the price is that after Ba Zun’an is eliminated, you protect his life.”
Kong Yuhen waited for a while and was slightly surprised: “No more?”
“No more.”
Xu Xiaoshou chuckled: “For you, this should be the easiest and simplest choice. This is the best choice.”
“What about you?” Kong Yuhen thought of something.
Xu Xiaoshou’s smile faded away, and he said calmly, “Choosing the best option means that all our past friendships will be severed. From now on, I will treat you as a variable and do whatever it takes to get you.”
The atmosphere turned cold.
The ancient and modern Forget-Sorrow Tower faded away and turned into the starry chessboard again.
This time, Kong Yuhen found himself sitting at the table as one of the chess players. Opposite him sat Mo Zu, Yao Zu, Chong Yin, Hua Changdeng, Ba Zun An, Dao Qiong Cang…
Plus the sudden appearance of Xu Xiaoshou!
It’s just Xu Xiaoshou, not anyone else behind him.
“Sir, this is really difficult for me.”
Kong Yuhen pinched his palms and felt a slight chill.
In fact, he never wanted to go to the table to plan anything, nor was he too lazy to find out which ancestor god had a backing for Xu Xiaoshou.
But he knew that if the situation continued to develop in this way, as he knew more and gained more, even if he did not want to take the table, the intertwined forces of all parties would force him to take the table.
I have no choice.
By then, I will be alone and helpless at the table, while everyone is scheming, and they are all old foxes and young foxes.
It would be very difficult to get out again!
“I……”
It’s hard to make a decision as I am left with regret.
Xu Xiaoshou smiled and said, “Brother Yuhen, you don’t have to make a choice now. You can think it through first.”
“Okay.” This is reassuring.
“But time is running out for you and me.” Xu Xiaoshou walked towards the window and stepped over it. He was going to make his debut as a hero.
“What do you mean?” Kong Yuhen looked over.
Xu Xiaoshou turned around and grinned, “Brother Yuhen, I don’t want to lie to you… I will talk to the Demon Ancestor, Medicine Ancestor, and the Evil Yin one by one about the choices I’m giving you right now.”
What?!
Only then did Kong Yuhen feel a chill on his back.
Looking at that harmless smiling face, he felt that it was a devil.
“Once one of them makes the first choice and I think it’s just right, I want to say ‘sorry’ to you in advance…”
Is this a threat?
Kong Yuhen stared at the young man clinging to the window, but he could not say a word.
Shouldn’t Xu Xiaoshou do this?
From his standpoint, he should do this!
“You seek answers, and I seek answers too. The battle for the Dao will inevitably involve bloodshed. A senior once told me this…” Xu Xiaoshou was careful about the relationship and the situation:
“Brother Yuhen, we have a close relationship, so I am the first one to tell you this, but our relationship is limited to friendship. I can wait for a while, but not for a lifetime. What do you think?”
A kind man cannot command an army.
When he was handed over by Ba Zun’an and when he returned from the long river of time, Xu Xiaoshou began to plan everything.
He won’t wait to die.
He always knew that behind him, there was a poisonous snake named Dao, who was colder-blooded and more terrifying than himself.
Watching the young man about to jump out of the window, Kong Yuhen seemed to be unable to bear the invisible pressure from behind and said:
“I choose…”
“Brother Yuhen!” Xu Xiaoshou interrupted him.
He had already stepped halfway into the vortex of time and space, but he turned back and said softly, “Don’t be in a hurry. You can watch the battle between Hua and Bayi first, and then give me the answer.”
I am left with only a little regret.
Who knows if Hua Ba will contact several ancestral gods in the starry sky during the war and cut off the source of trouble for all parties.
It should be noted that those alliances also have their own ulterior motives and their relationship is not stable at all.
Xu Xiaoshou was a man of many words. If he could persuade someone, what would be the point of making a choice later?
“I have made up my mind.” Kong Yuhen said loudly.
It was just as Xu Xiaoshou said, after contacting all parties and having to join the game, he believed that Ba Zun’an and Xu Xiaoshou were the people he could trust the most.
It has nothing to do with the situation or friendship. The strength of each party is hard to tell. Success or failure is all determined by fate and luck.
But if he simply considers the charm of his personality and whether he is comfortable getting along with others, he would choose Ba Zun’an.
“unimportant.”
Xu Xiaoshou jumped out of the window and stood on the vortex of time and space. His figure was sometimes solid and sometimes blurry. He smiled and waved his hand:
“Brother Yuhen, words and oaths are not important to me. Actions are the most important.”
“If you have made your choice, no matter which one it is, please be firm in yourself.”
“I have eyes…”
He stretched out his hand, bent it over, and tapped his own eyes. His figure gradually moved away and faded away:
“I have eyes, I can see.”
“When the time comes, you’ll get it.”
This guy…
Is this playing hard to get?
Kong Yuhen once again experienced firsthand how good the negotiation skills of the Lord were.
He felt like he had become the fish in the long river of time. He could clearly see the fishhook and bait that Xu Xiaoshou had thrown into the river. They were so obvious.
But he was still anxious to bite and eat it. He was so anxious that if he didn’t eat it, the bait, which was not very delicious at all, would be eaten by other fish!
“Xu Xiaoshou, I choose…”
Buzz!
The Ancient and Modern Forget-Your-Sorrow Tower was shaken, and the rest of the conversation stopped.
Xu Xiaoshou’s figure completely disappeared in the vortex of space, but the Shizu Shadow Staff that was quietly placed on the tea table flew over and followed.
The figure disappeared, leaving only a casual voice:
“I am left with only hatred. I do not accept impulsive confessions.”
“But thank you for your Time Ancestor Shadow Staff. I will continue to use it for now.” (End of this chapter)
