Chapter 2378: If You Can

"I humbly accept your instruction."

Yaochi and Haotian also nodded; they indeed knew some things, and since they were near Hongjun's cultivation seclusion, they received more information and were more sensitive to developments.

Especially Haotian!

Since Luo Fu suddenly appeared, Haotian's Tree of Destiny had begun to stir restlessly, and he could not control the Book of Destiny, so he had to entrust it to Taishang Laojun.

It was precisely because Taishang Laojun sought Luo Fu that he went to Penglai Immortal Island and learned of everything that had happened there—and of Ancestor Minghe's awakening.

This plunged the entire Thirty-Three Heavens Beyond into endless passivity.

The Thirty-Three Heavens Beyond must remain ever vigilant against them; they cannot escape so easily every time.

But if they truly wished to do so, evasion was not impossible—they had no need to ask then, for they themselves had ways to resolve it, even to exploit the opportunity.

Perhaps Yaochi had not anticipated this.

"At this moment, only you can do it; we simply cannot."

"Perhaps."

"It seems you know what you're doing—if you weren't willing to engage now, they themselves would have no other motive, no reason to act so simply."

Haotian was still worried.

The power of the Taiji Diagram was truly crucial; back then, he had been willing to do it, but how much the Taiji Diagram could absorb remained unknown to them.

Perhaps for Ancestor Minghe this was no problem, but for Haotian it was a major issue.

"Do you know what you must do now? If you know, you must act—right now, you must do exactly this!"

"I have no problem with that!"

"Then, will you undertake this, or do they now have a way to solve it?"

They would make all necessary preparations in advance and show no mercy to these people.

"What's wrong with that?"

"I only feel that Ancestor Minghe's arrival this time truly indicates trouble—and since Ancestor Minghe is right here, they basically cannot do such a thing."

If they could seize the Qiankun Cauldron in their hands, it would certainly be advantageous; facing these things now, they should accept them."

"There is no Qiankun Cauldron!"

"Then they must eventually find a way to deal with the Seven Treasures Marvelous Tree, right? If they want to obtain the Seven Treasures Marvelous Tree, they will need to know far more."

"Correct!"

"Then you must wait—what they wish to obtain from the Seven Treasures Marvelous Tree differs, but now they themselves should also want to know the reason."

Jin Ling Shengmu had also guessed, but they had no choice now.

Even if Jin Ling Shengmu's involvement allows them to deduce all of this, they still may not have thought of this point.

"Indeed excellent!"

"But the original plan, compared to your current situation, must have limitations if you wish to evade it..."

Taishang Laojun was explaining this very point, but they themselves did not feel it was a major issue; Taishang Laojun might not even trust them.

Perhaps Hongjun's seclusion has brought them even greater threats.

"Then we must handle it ourselves!"

"Others may not understand, but now they know more signals!"

"Yes, exactly—the Pòtiān Hammer and ten golden beads in Jin Ling Shengmu's hands must be seized; they have already prepared for this, and it may prove useful!"
