Chapter 143

"Ah Feng, long time no see..."

"Your sudden sentence directly burned Ancestor Phoenix's CPU!"

"Who are you?"

Ancestor Phoenix was a bit dazed.

Your gaze was full of longing and gentleness, but in response to Ancestor Phoenix's question, you did not answer directly, instead hesitating, as if your identity and secrets were being monitored by some unseen existence.

You sighed helplessly, ultimately saying nothing, just shaking your head and handing a small crimson flame to the increasingly bewildered Ancestor Phoenix.

"I will rewrite everything!"

"Don't trust anyone… wait for me! Ah Feng…"

But the prepared Old Man Hongjun waved his hand, sending out several glyphs of law that blocked Ancestor Phoenix for a moment; when he looked again, both had vanished without a trace…

Without a doubt, only Ancestor Dragon and Ancestor Qilin exist; thus, once you gain Ancestor Phoenix's trust, it will inevitably begin to doubt the two ancestors, planting the seed of a trust crisis!

Only after returning to Jade Capital Mountain and ensuring everything was safe did you and Old Man Hongjun finally both let out a sigh of relief!

…

It had to admit that you two riddle‑speakers had already confused it.

Therefore, you naturally cannot tell Ancestor Phoenix the whole truth, for this is your sole information advantage; yet making up everything wholesale is also unwise, for the more you fabricate, the bigger the loopholes!

Yet you wore a helpless expression: "What can I do? To keep the lie going, I've even sacrificed the Southern Wasteland Power!"

This thing was originally meant for you to quickly reach Great Luo Golden Immortal; now you've given it to Ancestor Phoenix, so your own re‑cultivation progress…

But words and demeanor can be faked, whereas the Southern Wasteland Power is absolutely genuine; Ancestor Phoenix dares to guarantee that no Quasi‑Sage‑level being has ever been born in the Primordial, so it's absolutely impossible to condense this thing!

Daoist friend! Your acting skills are freaking awesome!

Ancestor Dragon remained silent for a long time; he naturally subconsciously began to suspect the purpose of this letter, for the intent was too clear—anyone not stupid could see it was an attempt to sow discord.

The letter's contents were few and simple, just one sentence: "Only one can attain the Dao!"

Thus, subconsciously, Ancestor Phoenix snuffed out that risky thought again…

You gave Ancestor Phoenix three key pieces of information: one, you are a reincarnator; two, you came to rewrite some tragedy concerning Ancestor Phoenix; three, your relationship with it is not shallow, you are extremely familiar, even harboring affection!

The letter was written in the dragon clan's script, Long Zhang, which had not yet been promulgated, and Hongjun's means were sufficient to prevent Ancestor Dragon from tracing its source; most crucially, this information could not be verified…

Old Daoist Hongjun also, before turning away, gave Ancestor Phoenix a meaningful glance and finally sighed softly: "In this life, do not let him down…"

Ah! It's fine!

Ancestor Phoenix grew anxious, feeling that you two riddle‑speakers had a big problem, but it couldn't specify what the problem was, so it could only try to stop you and ask for clarification.

You seemed to have made a great resolve, as if determined to bear something alone, and decisively turned and left with Hongjun!

To maximize the sowing‑of‑discord effect, you deliberately skipped Ancestor Qilin and only had Hongjun write an anonymous letter to Ancestor Dragon.

As a player on your third loop, your greatest advantage has never been strong cultivation, but rather an almost omniscient edge of future information.

What you must do is use half‑true, half‑false future information to befuddle Ancestor Phoenix's judgment, fiercely wield the 'information gap' big stick, and smash this female bird into a simpleton!

Hongjun still harbored some doubt, for the three primordials have been old friends for countless eons; although your acting is decent, whether you can deceive this innately divine Ancestor Phoenix is worth discussing…

Dramatic retelling is not nonsense; adaptation is not random fabrication!

Amidst random thoughts, the image of someone shouldering everything alone, willing to pay a heavy price to change something related to it, floated into Ancestor Phoenix's mind, making it ever more tangled and anxious…

East Sea little flood dragon Jin Bing, after three miserable deaths, finally used the information gap to unlock the full map and ascend to the throne of the Golden Heaven Emperor!

How many people can Ancestor Phoenix trust in the Primordial?

As for these two, you don't have much patience, nor need much maneuvering—you can simply release the information.

The reason the alliance is still maintained now is merely that everyone deliberately avoids mentioning this matter…

"Why not go consult the Long Worm and the Ox and Horse…"

But… what if what it says is true?

"Who exactly are you!"

And after Ancestor Phoenix gains some trust from those three key points, its attention will naturally and involuntarily focus on your fragmentary remark: "Don't trust anyone!"

Ancestor Phoenix silently chewed on those few words: What do you want to rewrite? Why rewrite it? What does changing or not changing have to do with me?

You, Southern Wasteland little firebird Jiao Ming, likewise opened a path with your life, endured three lifetimes, and finally unleashed information suppression; although the specific tactics of the two chapters differ, with proper micro‑control you can still move a thousand pounds with four ounces…

Faced with the innately divine font of wisdom, Ancestor Phoenix, pure fabrication and flowery words simply won't work, so you didn't go into excessive detail; the focus was using key information to interfere with Ancestor Phoenix's own judgment.

Faced with Hongjun's hesitation, you also felt unsure, but the only solution you could presently devise was this; to achieve the greatest effect with the fewest loopholes, you, unskilled in political scheming, have already done your best.

These three points are all true.

The future Quasi‑Sage, still achieved in the Southern Wasteland realm—Ancestor Phoenix almost without hesitation identified the owner of this Southern Wasteland Power: it is none other than myself.

More importantly, how could this person traverse time? What is the purpose of his time travel?

"Don't trust anyone…"

And after planting the seed in Ancestor Phoenix's heart, it's now Ancestor Dragon and Ancestor Qilin's turn…

Ancestor Phoenix: …

You gazed at it with gentle yet resolute eyes, that genuine emotion causing its heart to twitch inexplicably; on one side it felt the Southern Wasteland Power, absolutely not something a Great Luo level could condense, while on the other it anxiously speculated about everything…

Thus, Phoenix speech and spiritual insight are your means of gaining trust, and you even had to bring along the Southern Wasteland Power painstakingly carried over from a past life as material proof, doing your utmost to increase Ancestor Phoenix's trust in you.

"Rewrite everything…"

The solitary figure and bird's silhouette lengthened in Ancestor Phoenix's bewildered eyes, until the moment they completely vanished…

There was none before, there is none now, so it can only be… the future!

Hongjun admired you to the utmost, giving you a thumbs‑up: "No wonder you're a reincarnator—you can pull this off."

If you can't beat them, no problem—you can resort to deceit and sneak attacks!

As for whether the Primordial can continuously give birth to multiple Dao‑attainers, that has always been a thorny issue; all three harbored doubts, after all, no one could give a definite answer.

After much deliberation, Ancestor Dragon decided to hold a conference with the two ancestors to seriously discuss this matter.

The Ancestor Phoenix, its thoughts in turmoil, could no longer bear it!

When people are lost, they naturally want to find a few reliable friends to chat with, and the Ancestor Phoenix is no exception; but as soon as this idea arose, it unconsciously recalled those few words spoken by that person earlier.

The key now is, will the Ancestor Phoenix really take the bait?

Why would I, in the future, specifically devote effort to condense the Southern Wasteland Power and give it to some inexplicable person?

But that's not entirely true, because it won't know that the way you change its related tragedy is to kill it……

In the great volcano, the Ancestor Phoenix gazed blankly at that mysterious clump of Southern Wasteland Power.

Hongjun confidently patted his chest: "Without the Southern Wasteland Power, I still have myself! With my effort, restoring cultivation is not difficult."

At some certain year, some certain meeting, some certain fortune, on the Central State Qilin Cliff, the Ancestor Phoenix and the Ancestor Qilin faced each other blankly, not understanding why this old long worm suddenly wanted to convene a meeting……
