Chapter 670: So It Was This Point in Time (Bonus Chapter 810)

What year is it?

"You mean..."

Dong Yushu was confused for a moment, then nodded in realization: "Oh! Has my lord just come out of seclusion?"

Ren Yidao thought about it and felt that this explanation was also fine.

【"Hmm, you could say that."】

You could say that?

What does that mean?

Although Dong Yushu felt this reply was a bit strange, she did not take it to heart, and after thinking for a moment, she replied:

"Reporting to my lord, it is currently the third year of the ninth sixty-year cycle of the Yu Emperor."

Ren Yidao:?

What kind of messy way of keeping time is this.

【"Oh? So this is the Southern Border?"】

Dong Yushu:???

No, my lord?

Do you not even remember where you were in seclusion?

Are you that carefree and casual?

Ren Yidao pondered for a moment, then continued to speak: 【"Let's do this, let me rephrase, has the chaos in the Eastern Wasteland begun? Has anyone usurped the throne and declared themselves king?"】

Dong Yushu: "Ah?"

【"Has the old Chu King already been imprisoned?"】

"Ah?"

The Chu King has been imprisoned???

Has such a major event happened in the Eastern Wasteland Divine Continent recently?

I haven't heard of it!

Ren Yidao didn't even need Dong Yushu to reply; looking at her expression, he knew this matter hadn't happened yet.

【"Oh, not yet? Since you don't know, that means it's not yet the final deadline, so this node isn't too late..."】

Dong Yushu could not understand Ren Yidao's muttering, but that did not prevent her from hearing some clues from these words.

!!!

This existence is using major events to determine the current time...

He just woke up, logically he shouldn't know about outside matters, which means...

Could he be able to deduce the future?

Dong Yushu had heard that there were powerful figures in the Daoist sects called Stealers of Fate, who were skilled in deduction, able to peek into Heavenly Dao secrets and know things that would happen in the future.

But Heavenly Dao secrets must not be leaked; every Stealer of Fate would not easily tell others of these secrets, and whether it was the leaker or the one being told, they would be punished by the Heavens, often resulting in a life-threatening Danger Star!

But now, she had heard so much... why didn't she feel any Heavenly condemnation?

Is everything he said a lie? Just making things up to deceive me?

Or is it that the Heavenly Dao cannot find this Daoist Temple? Since it cannot be found, it cannot be punished, and will be punished all at once after leaving here?

Or could it be... that even the Heavenly Dao can do nothing to him?

!!!

Dong Yushu was startled by her own final crazy thought and hurriedly shook her head.

How could this be possible!

How could anyone be more powerful than the Heavenly Dao?

Let alone cultivators, even the incomparably powerful Immortal Gods are the same; even though they can enjoy Chang Sheng, they still cannot escape the rules of the Heavenly Dao and are always constrained by it.

Thirty years have passed, and with the resurgence of the Immortal Gods, some secrets of the past have become known to the outside world.

Everyone understood that the Immortal Gods had disappeared from the world to avoid the suppression of the Heavenly Dao; even they could only avoid its edge and actively comply with the will of Heaven.

Although the Immortal Gods are strong, they are not greater than Heaven.

Therefore, her wild imagination just now could not be true!

... It couldn't be, right?

Gulp.

Dong Yushu swallowed her saliva; she was a bit unsure now.

She did not know much about the Immortal Gods, her knowledge all came from the outside world, and she had never met an Immortal God face-to-face.

But... based on the knowledge she had gained from the outside world, this owner of the Daoist Temple was also among the most powerful of the Immortal Gods.

Before seeing the miraculous functions of the Daoist Temple, she had never heard of any Immortal God who could change the flow of time!

【"Hey, wake up, why are you distracted? Did you fall asleep?"】

!!!

"Ah! I am truly sorry! I was just thinking about something..." Dong Yushu felt as if everything before her eyes went dark as she said these words.

She had actually been distracted while conversing with this lord... Hiss!

Disrespect, absolute disrespect!!!

It's over, everything is over...

Ren Yidao didn't care about this small matter and continued to ask: 【"Then have the Immortal Gods appeared in large numbers?"】

"They have appeared! The Immortal Gods appeared in large numbers thirty years ago!"

Dong Yushu hurriedly spoke, thinking of making up for her mistake, and poured out all the various situations she knew in one breath:

"A Yaohuang Island has appeared on the Northern Sea, and the Yaohuang City upon it is open to the public, drawing many to travel there; it is rumored that the Phoenix Demon God, who is the contemporary Demon Emperor, is also guarding the island..."

"The Western Desert is sealed off from the outside world, so little news flows out, but it is said that ten years ago, someone saw a headless body holding its own head, kowtowing once every step as it walked toward Spirit Mountain in the desert; rumor has it that the appearance of that head is extremely similar to the late Eldest Prince of Beigan..."

Ren Yidao listened silently, comparing what she said with what he already knew, gradually narrowing down the search range.

So... it is this point in time.

"I do not know much about the Eastern Wasteland Divine Continent, but I have heard that in recent years there has been a Righteous Army called Purple Beard; they claim they will unify the Royal Court and take the Eastern Wasteland back from the hands of the Immortal Gods..."

Dong Yushu paused suddenly when she reached this point; she thought of the "Chu King captured" incident she had heard of earlier, and suddenly she had a realization in her Heart.

As for this Righteous Army, the outside world has mostly treated them as a joke, not believing they could truly accomplish it.

Could it be, they won't actually succeed in the future, will they?

【"The Purple Beard Army? Who is the leader?"】

"The name of the Purple Beard Army leader is unknown, his identity is unclear, and he wears a mask all day long; the Righteous Army members all call him... the Eastern King."

【"The Eastern King, huh... Heh, that's a bit small-minded, truly petty."】

Dong Yushu:?

【"Since no one knows anyway, wouldn't it be better to call it something bigger? Just call it Eastern Emperor! Eastern Sovereign! Invincible of the East is also not bad... *cough*."】 Ren Yidao coughed once, shook his head, and put away his Danger Star thoughts.

I absolutely cannot cut it!

Huhu still wants to hold a grand-disciple.

Ren Yidao remained silent, which placed immense psychological pressure on Dong Yushu; finally, she could not help but ask: "My Lord, did I disturb your closed-door cultivation?"

She was very worried about this matter, terrified that she would leave a bad impression on the owner of the Daoist Temple because of it.

Ren Yidao blinked and chuckled lightly: 【"Disturb? Hmm... I did indeed come out of cultivation here because of you; your intrusion created a ripple that woke me up."】

【"However, this does not actually count as a disturbance; if one must say, it could even be considered a blunder that turned into a success, as it helped me a little from the result."】

Waking up here was not in Ren Yidao's plan, but it might count as a stroke of luck that he happened upon a better point in time, better than the one he had originally set.

Thus, Ren Yidao comforted her gently: 【"So, little one, you can rest easy; I will not make things too difficult for you."】

"Th-that is good then..." Dong Yushu let out a sigh of relief, but after only a few seconds, she quickly reacted.

Wait... not "too" difficult?

That means, he will still make things difficult???

【"You will understand when the time comes."】 After Ren Yidao finished speaking, he added: 【"Don't be nervous; being nervous is useless."】

"……Understood."

Dong Yushu was very panicked, not knowing what such an existence would make her do, or what he would need her for...

And Ren Yidao indicated:

Child, you are far too important!

Whether I can see my grand-disciple soon depends entirely on you!

……

……

"Hahaha! What 'Giant Rat Devouring Heaven'! You still die all the same!"

And just as the Divine Servant of Nine Eyes roared while holding the head of Shuda, which had been shattered into two halves, light footsteps came from behind him.

Tap.

!!!

And a chuckle full of mockery:

"Yo, that one-eyed fellow, can you tell me the details of how you transformed from a human into a demon?"

"Ren is very curious!"
