Chapter 2217: Compromise (5 more)

~7 min read 1,348 words

Cang Qiong Zhu said in a deep voice: "All things here are not completely illusory; you know everything, why say such things?"

Da Yi chuckled: "I can't be bothered to argue with you. In short, as the spokesperson of humanity, I tell you this: junior matters are for juniors to settle. If you intervene, our four human Dao Ancestors and one Origin Realm Primordial Ancestor will not stand by."

Upon hearing this, Cang Qiong Zhu was momentarily speechless.

Speaking of Dao Ancestor numbers, humanity currently has four, plus an even stronger Universe Lord who transcends the Dao Ancestor realm.

As for the Water Clan, they only have three……

If they truly went all-out to war, they would suffer greatly.

Moreover, to spark a clan-wide war over this, affecting countless beings, is clearly not something a Dao Ancestor should do.

However, expecting Cang Qiong Zhu to abandon his beloved disciple is obviously impossible.

He said: "Not intervening is fine, but I fear the consequences would be worse—something your juniors cannot bear."

Da Yi replied: "How much he can bear is his own affair. As a Dao Ancestor, you should remain outside the matter."

"Fine, then I'll stay out of it." Cang Qiong Zhu agreed.

Immediately shifting his tone, he said: "However, I intend to exercise that authority."

"That is your freedom." Da Yi gave a slight nod and said nothing more.

He turned, glanced at Xiao Feng, and said: "Go ahead, do what you want. As a foreign Primordial Ancestor, we native Primordial Ancestors will back you up."

Without any visible action, Xiao Feng felt the scene before him shift rapidly—the sea swiftly receded, the distance stretching infinitely in the blink of an eye. The Azure Dragon shrank to invisibility, and the towering form of Cang Qiong Zhu's Li Ti seemed to turn into a deep‑sea stingray, soaring above a vast blue world, larger than that world itself.

The stingray flew above a vast blue expanse, larger than that world itself.

"Primordial Ancestor..."

Xiao Feng still wanted to say a few words to Da Yi, but the latter's figure had already vanished.

The scene before him cleared once more, and he found himself back in the valley where the Thousand Heart Sword Emperor lived in seclusion, standing at the entrance of the Void Passage leading to the Burial Dao Realm.

It seemed as if he had never entered this passage; everything just now felt like a dream, and now that the dream had ended, he had returned to the starting point.

But Xiao Feng knew clearly that it was not a dream!

"Cang Qiong Zhu won't let me kill Di Jiang, but his final meaning……is it a compromise?"

Xiao Feng thought.

He found part of the conversation between Da Yi and Cang Qiong Zhu hard to understand.

Da Yi's prevention of Cang Qiong Zhu from acting seemed to produce a "more serious consequence," possibly too much for Xiao Feng to bear.

But what that consequence was, neither of the two Primordial Ancestors mentioned.

Moreover, Cang Qiong Zhu said he would exercise a certain authority.

What authority is that?

"I never expected that dealing with Di Jiang would lead to this; this time it truly reaches the upper echelons of the clans……"

Xiao Feng thought to himself.

He knew Cang Qiong Zhu would not easily abandon Di Jiang, and might even intervene in another form to help Di Jiang against him.

But as long as it is not an overt use of Dao Ancestor power, he should still have a way to cope.

Human Dao Ancestors are not to be trifled with; if they really fight, it's not certain who will lose!

Xiao Feng was now delighted, having finally seen in person another Dao Ancestor besides Chen Jie, and that party was also very supportive of him.

Speaking of which, he also shares some fate with Da Yi.

Xiao Mi's clan are all law‑followers under Da Yi's control, cultivating the way of war and battle

the Dao; not long after the server launched, he had once seen Da Yi in the form of a projection.

Later, in the Primeval World, Da Yi also appeared, blessing players of all races and opposing the Lord of the Earth.

Afterwards, he even obtained the Thunderbolt Arrow!

Moreover, Chen Jie once went to Kyushu to ask Da Yi for wine, brought it back, and shared it with Xiao Feng.

Back then, that bronze wine pot was discarded somewhere unknown on Blue Star; even after becoming the Controller, Xiao Feng tried to find it, but the pot seemed able to shield Divine Sense probing, and he never located it—perhaps it will someday become a fortunate encounter for some lucky soul on Blue Star.

This time, seeing Da Yi in person felt special, and his emotions were inevitably a little excited.

Unfortunately, he couldn't speak with Da Yi before the latter left.

"Jian Ge, did you see that?" Xiao Feng asked.

The Thunderbolt Arrow is a treasure that came from the real world, one of the divine arrows Da Yi used to shoot down the suns.

Although after entering the virtual world its memories of the real world were obscured, it still remembers who its creator is.

Hearing Xiao Feng's question, the Thunderbolt Arrow replied doubtfully: "What did you see? There's nothing here at all."

"Uh……did you guys sense nothing just then?" Xiao Feng blinked.

All the treasures said: "No, sense what? You've just been standing here spacing out—it's almost been five minutes; we thought you'd fallen asleep!"

"emmm……"

Xiao Feng felt awkward.

It turned out that everything just then really was a "dream".

His consciousness moved forward, rushed through the Void Tunnel, reached the Void Sea, and saw the Azure Dragon, Cang Qiong Zhu, and Da Yi.

However, his fleshly body never moved at all, not even taking the first step

He never stepped out, remaining stuck here.

So, the far end of this Void Tunnel is still the Burial Dao Realm; he didn't actually pass through here—his soul was drawn by the Dao Ancestor's will, shifting with the Void World to the Void Sea.

"Truly a marvelous method."

Xiao Feng was deeply impressed.

Although he somewhat disapproved of Cang Qiong Zhu's bullying of the weak with his strength, he sincerely admired the Dao Ancestor's power.

The strong are indeed extraordinary!

I really don't know when I'll get to see the Dao Ancestor next.

Xiao Feng felt a bit of anticipation.

He also felt a little scared.

Seeing the Dao Ancestor of his own clan is a good thing; each time brings a great opportunity.

But seeing an outsider's Dao Ancestor is another matter—he might be coming to kill him!

"Don't just stand there, hurry up and act—we can't wait to see what your and Fairy Maiden Xun Shuang's child looks like!" urged the Myriad Calamities Treasure Pagoda.

"Okay, Pagoda Brother, let's set off!"

Xiao Feng chuckled, tossed aside his distracting thoughts, and pretended that what had just happened never occurred.

He stepped into the cave and continued forward along the void tunnel.

At this moment his condition was excellent; the experience of having his bones crushed earlier felt like a dream, unreal, and his body remained at peak condition, ready to unleash his full power at any time.

The Will Sword hung at his back, the Supreme Saint Ring adorned his hand, and each Supreme Treasure thirsted for battle, eager to fight.

Xiao Feng also wondered what his child would be like—whether a boy or a girl, obedient or not, and whether the child would resemble him or Xun Shuang.

Carrying endless anticipation and longing, the void tunnel soon reached its end.

He took a deep breath and whispered: "Di Jiang, Di Jiang, for my child, and also to give the

The revenge of the generations of the imagined cosmos human race NPC—you should have been cut off.

The Nine Mysterious Venerable who had transmitted the Ninefold Heavenly Dao to him, the task entrusted to him, is finally about to be realized.

Xiao Feng took a step forward and entered the Burial Dao Realm!
