[TheTavius08: bruh the irony of me talking about the other works and then the author puts Clovis instead of Theo.Im just goated]

[Random Passing Comment]

[Nightmaretama (169): maybe your dao is the dao of learning because everything can be a dao so maybe learning can be too]

…

Theo looked at the comments, finally having time to reply to them. Since Qin Beihe was still around, he decided to reply inwardly.

’What distortion are you talking about? Did something happen when I was thinking about the Dao? A fan service?’ Theo furrowed his eyebrows, finding something weird.

’I want to believe that the distortion is a kind of clue from the author himself. I mean, I can ask you guys about my Dao and the author might incorporate it, right? But what if the author is actually giving a clue for future chapters? Just like this distortion… I don’t know what kind of distortion I have, but it might be a clue to what I’ll be getting.

’So, there is a chance that the author might want to lead you to that answer. At the same time, I am unable to provide you with any answers about the Dao. No, wait. How about we do this? Based on the distortion, what kind of Dao might suit me but is also capable of producing such a distortion?’

Theo checked on the next chapter and said, ’Welcome back. I’m not sure about the author’s other works, but I’m pretty sure that a story about my life is among them. In fact, I’m not aware of the author’s identity.

’And the Dao of Confusion… I am not sure about this one. While you can think of it as a way to blur the line between illusion and reality, I’m not sure whether the Dao exists or not.’

Theo quickly checked the previous chapter’s comments.

’Clovis? Who’s that? Well, it’s probably a typo. Then again, there is a chance that the author might do something else to drop a clue or answer the comments. So, I will surely look out for them even though it will be more apparent to you guys than me.’

’And lastly, the Dao of Learning? My talent is learning, so I’m not sure about this Dao of Learning. It can be my learning speed, but I’m currently a teacher, so it might affect my students instead. Or probably my teaching style. I am not sure about this. While it suits me, I can’t really feel that this Dao suits me. I mean, talent is what you have, while Dao is the path you pursue, right? I don’t have the intention of pursuing that path.’

Because he hadn’t replied for several chapters, it was quite a lot. But once he was done, he immediately returned to the problem at hand.

He had killed this so-called young master. Even though he had been keeping this problem away, the author truly knew him well.

’What’s going to happen from now on? I’m sure that this will be used against me. In that case, I should erase all of them, especially the trace about them.’ Theo looked at both Mia and Qin Beihe, wondering if they could do it. His ability wasn’t suitable for this after all.

If he were able to control reality, he could summon a fire out of nowhere, but even if he summoned a fire, it would only be an illusion. A dead body wouldn’t be affected by illusion.

On the other hand, Mia was still unconscious. So, the only thing he could ask was Qin Beihe. "Do you have any ability to remove their trace?"

Qin Beihe looked at Lin Zong’s corpse and shook her head. "I’m sorry, I don’t think I have the ability to do it. If I have to erase the trace, the only thing I can do is bury them."

Theo thought for a moment, wondering if there was still something he could do. He glanced at the horses shaking their heads.

"In that case…" Theo had no choice but to use his second authority.

He moved back toward them and spread his arms, channeling the essence to the ground.

"Toon Territory."

He manipulated the environment to create a big graveyard. After that, he controlled his essence to push all the bodies into the hole. More importantly, the soil had to be buried underneath it as well so that no trace of blood or smell would be found.

Only after that would he begin filling up the top layer with fresh soil.

"I guess this is the best thing I can do right now." Theo let out a long sigh. This was not perfect, but it was better than nothing.

Now that everything was settled, he returned to their side and said, "I think you should go to the palace first. Can you open it, or do we have to do anything to enter?"

"I am not sure." Qin Beihe shook her head. "There is no record about the mechanism of the palace. Since you want me to go, I can check it for you."

"Sure. I will wait here for a while." Theo nodded. After Qin Beihe headed to the palace, Theo pointed at the rhino. "You guys can continue drinking, you know."

*Ngieeeh!*

The horses immediately returned to the rhino, wondering if they could get more from this.

Meanwhile, Theo asked, "Mia. Are you awake yet?"

"Mhmm…" Mia let out a soft moan. "I have a hard time moving right now, but talking shouldn’t be a problem."

"Take your time." Theo sighed. "I guess I have fallen into the author’s trap."

"No. I should apologize to you, Dad. If I’m not eager to create trouble, the author might not use it to anger you and cause all this mess. Sorry."

"I know that you might be a playful kid, but you are not someone who does things without a reason. Even though you want to create problems, I know that the problem is still under control. In the end, the author outsmarted us and caused a bigger problem than we expected."

"What should we do now? Can we even escape from this place alive? I mean, return to the Modern Realm."

"If we want to return, no one will be able to prevent us. It’s just that I wonder how much the cultivators plan to settle the score. If they come to the Modern Realm to kill us, then we will not only have to worry about the schemes from the Demon Realm but we also have to watch out for assassination or kidnapping attempts from this world."

Mia thought for a moment. "I am not sure if this is relevant or not. But even though this is one of the overused tropes, I still think that not a lot of stories actually destroyed the entire sect. They first would send elders, stronger elders, and eventually wait for you to reach a certain level of strength before doing it personally."

Theo thought for a moment. "They are kind of foolish, aren’t they?"

"Yeah. If the big backers just openly showed themselves and solved this issue, the main character would definitely die without being able to fight back. No plot armor could save the main character. However, the majority of the plots would just lead to beat you up, beat your elder up, beat your super elder up, before beating your daddy."

Mia’s words made Theo wonder if the author would be playing with this route. On the one hand, he had been doing things in a similar way to the overused trope. On the other hand, the author might want him to think that way and launch a sneak attack.

He might die in the process. Even if he didn’t die, there was a chance that he did something that caused significant damage.

Theo said, "I hope that the readers can monitor the tags or genres this book has. At the very least, make sure that ’tragedy’ isn’t among them."

"Tragedy, huh… Now that I think about it, what is the genre or tags of this story? Just those things alone will give us a lot of information." Mia wondered for a minute while Theo said, "Well, the author should be able to change that as he liked, no? Unlike the traditional publisher, you could change everything in your web novel, right? That’s what I think if I’m not mistaken about the web novels."

"If that’s the case, we should assume that they are going to chase after us through the normal sequence. However, the moment variables change, we will have to respond accordingly."

"Sounds good enough. By the way, do you want to respond to the comments?" Theo asked.

"Hmm, I’m not in the mood. But if you haven’t answered them, I can answer them." Mia was still too weak, so she chose to focus on her recovery first instead of replying to the comments.

"Yeah. I have replied to them. So, dear readers, please forgive her for not replying to you." Theo apologized on Mia’s behalf.

However, it seemed that their conversation had to end because Theo noticed some movement from Qin Beihe. She was waving her hand as if asking him to come.

"Mia. That girl seems to have found something and wants us to go there."

"I will act weak and unconscious for the time being. But before that, I want to warn you a little bit, Dad."

"A warning? For what?"

"We can’t let Yue Yi meet Qin Beihe. The characteristics of Yandere and the fact that the readers told us that she might cause trouble mean that she is extremely scary. She might kill Qin Beihe with a little misunderstanding." Continue reading at novelbuddy

"Ehm, I’m not sure if I understand what you’re talking about."

"To put it simply, her jealousy is so ridiculous that it breaks her mind and causes her to do something unthinkable. So, we have to do our best to avoid them meeting each other. At the very least, she shouldn’t be aware that we’re around."

"Alright. I will consider it seriously. Let’s go then. I want to see what kind of clue she has found." Theo stood up and carried Mia on his back. The horses seemed to stop eating and walked to him, conveying their request. "Do you guys want to come with me?"

*Ngieehh!*

"Are you sure? This might be dangerous. You guys have done enough and I have repaid you guys, so I think we’re even. You don’t have any obligation to follow me anymore."

*Ngieeehhh!* The horses looked at him with a pleading gaze, begging Theo to take them.

Theo made a wry smile. While he didn’t mind bringing them with him, he still wondered if this was the right thing to do. After all, he didn’t want a wild monster to be attached to him, which eventually became his pet.

But looking into their eyes made Theo’s heart melt. "Alright. You guys can follow me. Since we’re not going to enter right away, you can continue drinking until I call you both."

The two horses exchanged looks before reaching an agreement. They decided to follow Theo’s order and strengthen themselves further while Theo inspected the palace.
