Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
The system cursed him inwardly. [A complete fool! This old man said to ask about the whereabouts and then steal it, but you directly threatened them! Aren’t you just alerting the enemy ahead of time?]
Li Yunmu didn’t care about it. He cupped his fist toward f.u.xi and Nuwa and then turned around to leave.
Who knew that f.u.xi would suddenly use a barrier to stop him and say, “Mortal, do you intend to steal the ancient secret method? You do know that this is the greatest sin in the Primordial G.o.d World? Your cultivation would be completely destroyed!”
Li Yunmu coldly snorted. “Don’t threaten me! You both were completely heartless to my requests, so don’t blame me for reciprocating in the same manner! If you don’t agree to rescue my clansmen, then I will save them on my own.”
Nuwa hadn’t expected that the mortal would surprisingly be so resolute. He traveled through land and ocean to reach the Primordial G.o.d World just to save his clansmen, just to protect ordinary people. It fit well with her conviction.
Nuwa suddenly smiled and said to f.u.xi, “This mortal is being sincere. We can already conclude this test and tell him the secret of the ancient secret method. Otherwise, I fear that the true G.o.d will blame us.”
While twirling his beard, f.u.xi smiled faintly. “Mortal, it was just a test! We wanted to see your desire to a.s.sist the common people. Don’t ever change, for your heart is like a mirror. We are willing to lend you the ancient secret method.”
Li Yunmu was slightly startled. Unexpectedly, the two G.o.ds had been trying to test him. They had tricked him deliberately! But he pushed down his anger.
“Didn’t you say that only when I got rid of the seal would you give me the ancient secret method?”
“We’ve always known that the seal of the Ancient Lands is being guarded by an ancient divine beast, so how could destroying it be so easy? Unless master G.o.d awakened!
“Our Ancient Lands’ Battle G.o.d Xingtian had fought with the black qilin guarding the seal for five months and was defeated, so it can be seen that the strength of the guarding ancient divine beast is no weaker than master G.o.ds.”
Li Yunmu was shocked! The two had actually known everything! Then his previous explanation was quite redundant.
“Then will you hand over the ancient secret method now?”
Li Yunmu nervously looked at f.u.xi and Nuwa, afraid that they might change their mind once more.
Nuwa smiled. “Mortal, we know of your intentions to save people. However,after the ancient secret method was cultivated in the Ancient Lands for a thousand years, it took a human form. If you want to take her, you will have to ask for her consent.”
Li Yunmu blinked and asked, “What do you mean?”
f.u.xi wasn’t like Nuwa who kept people on tenterhooks and loudly shouted, “Yuan Biyao!”
With his words, Yuan Biyao instantly appeared in front of everyone. She shot a glance at Li Yunmu and said to f.u.xi, “Biyao greets Emperor f.u.xi!”
f.u.xi smiled in reply/ “This mortal is the sh.e.l.l of the true G.o.d before he awakens. He wants to take you to save his clansmen. Are you willing to follow him?”
Yuan Biyao frowned and shook her head. “Yuan Biyao wants to stay in the Primordial G.o.d World and doesn’t want to leave ever.”
Li Yunmu was somewhat dumbfounded. As it turned out, the ancient secret method was hidden in the most conspicuous location. No wonder then that Yuan Biyao looked so beautiful. After all she was the incarnation of ancient secret method.
“Young lady, I beg you to a.s.sist the common people. A crisis is about to descend on my clansmen, and you are my only hope. I wish that young lady would help me.”
Nuwa sighed. “What a pity. Mortal, since Yuan Biyao isn’t willing to go with you, then we also cannot do anything. It is her choice, and is neither my nor f.u.xi’s intention.”
Li Yunmu nodded. “I understand, thus I again beseech young lady to follow me.”
Yuan Biyao snorted. “Why should I believe you? This Primordial G.o.d World requires my protection. If I leave, what will happen to it?”
[Girl, I can a.s.sist you in establis.h.i.+ng a barrier over the Primordial G.o.d World so that outsiders won’t be able to enter. Will you follow him then?]
“Who? Who is speaking? This mortal surprisingly dares to make such wild boasts?”
Yuan Biyao’s face filled with fury, and she felt extremely resentful toward Li Yunmu.
Li Yunmu tried to resolve the misunderstanding. “Young lady, you are mistaken. Just a moment, the one speaking wasn’t me, but rather the being inside my body!”
Yuan Biyao frowned. “Stop tricking me! I have also cultivated for a thousand years, so don’t think about keeping me in the dark.”
“Young lady, I am truly not lying to you. I really didn’t say that. But his words are not baseless. You can believe in him and come with me! My clansmen need your a.s.sistance.”
“I don’t believe you!” Yuan Biyao said arrogantly.
[Girl, you are really stubborn. Since you don’t have confidence in my ability, then I will let you see my strength.]
Yuan Biyao shot a cold glance toward Li Yunmu. “What abilities do you have? You are just a mortal and nothing more!”
After saying those words, Yuan Biyao suddenly felt her chest grow heavy. She lowered her head only to see that Li Yunmu had placed his hands on her chest. She was shocked and instantly pushed him away while covering herself and furiously glared at him.
Slap!
She slapped Li Yunmu’s face and angrily said, “You shameless person! You… get lost!”
Li Yunmu was dumbfounded. The motherf*cking system was being too excessive! Why was it so mischievous? And even if it wanted to do something, why did he have to be the one to eat the slap?
“This isn’t related to me!”
Li Yunmu didn’t know whether to laugh or cry. Regardless of how he explained, Yuan Biyao would never believe him. Right then, she even considered him to be a pervert on top of everything.
Just as Li Yunmu finished speaking, his voice changed again. [Girl, I told you to not provoke me. Did you see my skills? You should be willing to go with me now.]
“You, you, you! Only an idiot would go with you! Hmph!”
Yuan Biyao left the main hall with her face flushed red while f.u.xi and Nuwa laughed.
Li Yunmu looked at the two G.o.ds while wanting to cry but having no tears. f.u.xi and Nuwa looked innocently at him, implying that they were helpless.
Li Yunmu clenched his teeth and said to the system, “It’s all because of you! If it were not for you, would Yuan Biyao have come to hate me? Now the ancient secret method is completely opposed to going with me.”
[How can you blame me? I only revealed a little of my skills. Who knew that she would be so weak willed and unable to endure,] the system said calmly.
“You, shut up! Why don’t you think of something now? How exactly are we going to convince her to follow me?”
