Chapter 364: Chapter 364: The Chief Culprit
Qin Yi could now basically confirm that the Inheriting Heaven Pearl acknowledged Lan Jiaojiao, just as the Eye of Righteous and Evil acknowledged him.
The Inheriting Heaven Pearl is the supreme treasure of the Nine-tailed Silver Fox clan, containing the origins and legacy of the clan. It seems Lan Jiaojiao has obtained a heaven-defying fortune.
However, this Inheriting Heaven Pearl has limitations, different from the Eye of Righteous and Evil.
The Eye of Righteous and Evil encompasses everything, and I’ve completely obtained everything from it.
But this Inheriting Heaven Pearl is like passing a level, with cultivation as the key. With improved cultivation, more things can be obtained from it.
However, since the Inheriting Heaven Pearl is ultimately a thing of the Demon Clan, for a human like Lan Jiaojiao, it’s hard to say whether it’s a blessing or a curse.
Nevertheless, he would do his utmost to keep Lan Jiaojiao safe.
Suddenly, Qin Yi asked in surprise, "Your supreme treasure of the Nine-tailed Silver Fox clan has fallen into the hands of a human. Are you accepting this so easily?"
"Or what? Kill Jiaojiao to extract the Inheriting Heaven Pearl?" Yin Qingyi retorted.
Qin Yi: "..."
"But it is, after all, the supreme treasure of your Nine-tailed Silver Fox clan."
Yin Chen said, "For thousands of years, no one has been acknowledged by the Inheriting Heaven Pearl. Since it acknowledged Jiaojiao, it is fate. There may be situations here that we cannot comprehend."
"Maybe Jiaojiao herself has some connection with our Nine-tailed Silver Fox clan, only we do not know yet."
"Taking a step back, Jiaojiao is our friend, and from our recent interactions, she is worth associating with. The Inheriting Heaven Pearl acknowledges her, which is far better than leaving it with us."
"Jiaojiao has obtained several powerful cultivation techniques from the Inheriting Heaven Pearl and has not been stingy, sharing them generously with our siblings. Just for this reason alone, I think having the Inheriting Heaven Pearl with Jiaojiao is not a bad thing."
Qin Yi was momentarily stunned, then smiled, "You do have a broad mind."
"Jiaojiao has promised to help avenge our Nine-tailed Silver Fox clan. The Inheriting Heaven Pearl in our hands is just a pearl with slight healing effects, but in hers, it is a slowly unlocking treasure vault."
Qin Yi frowned, "With her level of cultivation, you’re counting on her to avenge your Nine-tailed Silver Fox clan?"
Yin Chen said earnestly, "Jiaojiao has been acknowledged by the Inheriting Heaven Pearl, so there must be a reason for its acknowledgment. Jiaojiao’s future is promising, and we believe in her."
Qin Yi shook his head helplessly.
Lan Jiaojiao said discontentedly, "Old Qin, what do you mean? Do you look down on me?"
"It’s not that I look down on you; I also think your future is promising! But don’t forget, it’s the future."
Yin Chen said, "A gentleman’s revenge is not too late even after ten years! We are not in a hurry; we can wait until Jiaojiao fully matures."
"Besides, we are not solely relying on Jiaojiao. Our siblings will also continue to cultivate diligently, striving to seek vengeance at the earliest possible."
Qin Yi shrugged, knowing Lan Jiaojiao. Having made a promise to these siblings, she would surely give her all to fulfill it.
This woman, truly gives one no peace of mind.
However, to seek revenge with Lan Jiaojiao’s current cultivation level, perhaps after cultivating for a few more decades it might be possible, there is still time, and there is no rush now.
"Are you two from the Primordial?"
Yin Chen and Yin Qingyi nodded slightly.
"To be precise, we come from a corner of the Primordial. The Primordial is vast and boundless, and even those with earth-shakingly high cultivation might not manage to traverse its entirety in their lifetime."
Qin Yi had always wanted to understand what kind of world the Primordial was, and now he finally had the opportunity.
"Can you describe what the Primordial is like?"
"It’s hard to say," said Yin Qingyi straightforwardly, "It’s not that we don’t want to tell you, it’s just that we don’t know how to describe it?"
"What do you mean?" Qin Yi was puzzled.
"The Primordial is just a general concept, the correct term is the Four Seas and Eight Desolates, and our Nine-tailed Silver Fox clan is just residing in a corner of the Eastern Xuan Domain of the Primordial, in a place called Fengyu City."
"Fengyu City is ruled by the Feather Clan, governing twelve small cities. Our Nine-tailed Silver Fox clan occupies just one city. Though it’s called a city, it’s as big as a province in your world."
"We never left the habitat of the Nine-tailed Silver Fox clan from birth until adulthood until our clan was struck by disaster, and we siblings were hunted, coincidentally finding our way to your world."
Qin Yi was speechless, this conversation revealed that these two had spent their whole life just revolving around their little patch of land.
However, a small city being as large as a province shows how vast the Primordial is, truly unimaginable.
"How did you manage to come to Earth by chance?"
Yin Qingyi said, "We followed the Heavenly Defect to this world."
"Heavenly Defect?" Qin Yi was puzzled.
Yin Qingyi explained, "It’s when suddenly there appeared a rift in the sky, and we happened to come across it and were absorbed by a beam of light. Then we arrived in this world."
"Right, accompanying us were Blood Ghost Vine, Blood Monkey, Earth Demon, Soul-devouring Demon, and others."
Qin Yi’s face changed slightly, "So that means that Heavenly Defect can bring beings from the Primordial to this world at any time?"
"Pretty much!" Yin Qingyi pondered for a moment, then continued, "We were forced to a dead end and entered the light covered by the Heavenly Defect, as we didn’t know the result then."
"Those who pursued us didn’t dare follow, as they didn’t know whether being absorbed by the Heavenly Defect meant life or death either?"
"However, Yun Mengyao appeared afterward. I think she knew that there was no danger in being absorbed by the Heavenly Defect. I think more and more beings from the Primordial will be coming to this world."
Qin Yi’s face changed dramatically.
Yin Chen said seriously, "Qin Yi, the Primordial is a place filled with bloodshed and slaughter, where the belief that the strong are respected is deeply ingrained. Not every being is as kind as our siblings."
"If more and more beings from the Primordial appear in this world, humanity here is so weak that it might be a terrifying catastrophe for them."
Qin Yi’s face completely changed, this was indeed what he was worried about.
The old Azure Dragon spent ten years of lifespan and fifty years of cultivation to see catastrophe through the Heavenly Mechanism Evolution Technique.
Qin Yi tentatively asked, "Do you know how the Heavenly Defect appeared?"
Yin Chen replied solemnly, "It’s hard to say for sure, but we think it might be related to the anomaly that night."
"What anomaly?"
"It was a deep night a year ago, the sky suddenly showed an anomaly, and I’ll never forget that scene; the entire sky turned into two eyes, one purple, one red."
"One eye was gentle and kind, full of emotion. The other was filled with indifference and evil, a kind of indifference without a trace of emotion, sending chills throughout the body."
"Although those eyes vanished in a flash, many people saw them. Shortly after, in some places, Heavenly Defects appeared."
Qin Yi’s heart jolted, yet again two eyes, it was clearly the Eye of Righteous and Evil.
It seems the culprit behind opening the gates of calamity was indeed him.
