Chapter 476: Chapter 297: The Correct Way to Interrogate Lily_2

Zhang Ze shook his head again, "I’m not sure, but my feeling is that the Human Emperor Banner swallowed Qi Ren."

"The sounds within that banner are the echoes left by the magical artifacts and living beings it devoured."

After Zhang Ze finished speaking, he looked at the silent bigwigs and shared his conclusion.

"The origin of this banner likely traces back to that Emperor of Dongqi, or even earlier to the Ten Kingdoms Chaos.

"It was secretly preserved by the Eastern Qi Royal Family until the late Dongqi, during which it was somehow damaged in the great war, and then..."

Zhang Ze didn’t finish his sentence before Old Tang interjected.

"And then it fell into the hands of the Hundred Demons Sect, or rather, that mysterious Demon Sect Leader is the bloodline survivor of the Eastern Qi Royal Family.

"Just like how Lu Yuzhou’s master secretly preserved the Mortal Dust Robe, he preserved the Human Emperor Banner."

"So, the Hundred Demons Sect claims to be the legitimate lineage of East Continent... I guess it might be true..."

Old Tang finished speaking, feeling a bit awkward himself, but he quickly moved on. 𝕗𝐫𝐞𝕖𝕨𝐞𝗯𝚗𝕠𝘃𝐞𝚕.𝐜𝗼𝚖

"Legitimacy is useless if they’re not doing the right things. The Eastern Qi Royal Family and our Ancestral Master both started as rebels; emperors come and go, this year it’s at my place, Taoist I..."

"Dian, don’t go crazy," Old Sect Leader Li lightly coughed, interrupting Old Tang’s rambling.

He looked at Zhang Ze and said, "If you have more thoughts, just speak them out."

Zhang Ze first glanced down at the ruined land beneath Buddha Country, then looked at Old Sect Leader Li.

"You say... the appearance of the plains by the Qinghe River under our feet now, doesn’t it resemble Central Continent a bit? This refining of a continent’s fate, did it not happen once before in the past..."

"But if it was successful that time, where is the person who gained Central Continent’s fate?"

"If it wasn’t successful, then..."

Zhang Ze wanted to say more, but Mo Jingchun came over and ruffled his hair, "You don’t need to worry about these matters, go rest first, Xiaoqin is still worried about you."

"Leave the wrapping up to us elders." Old Tang also stepped forward and patted Zhang Ze on the shoulder.

"Dongqi is long gone, and the Hundred Demons Sect is almost finished too. Now, apart from that Sect Leader, there’s just a Five Rams and half a Yilong left, barely forming a threat.

"And if your guess is right, the Five Rams escaping is actually a good thing. It’ll make tracing back to the Demon Sect Main Helm easier.

"After we find it, naturally we can get more clues.

"Take things slowly; in any case, you go rest first. Don’t think just because you’ve scored minor achievements you can compare with Taoist me; in terms of cultivation, you’re still far off.

"As for the important matters of East Continent, it’ll still be up to Taoist me to handle."

Old Tang finished speaking and glanced at Monk Mingzhi, gesturing for him to send Zhang Ze over to Spirit Deer Valley.

Mingzhi understood, and with a wave of his hand, Zhang Ze was teleported out of Buddha Country.

As soon as he landed, two shadows leapt towards him.

Li’s little tummy bumped directly into Zhang Ze’s face, clinging to his head like a facehugger, then started climbing all over him like an oversized cockroach.

Chen Qin, not tall enough, could only bump into Zhang Ze’s chest, and because of her speed, she ended up knocking Zhang Ze to the ground.

"I was worried to death," Junior Sister tightly hugged Zhang Ze, greedily breathing in his scent, unwilling to let go.

Meanwhile, after playing enough as a facehugger, Li returned to her actual job, a shoulder accessory.

Sitting on his shoulder, swaying back and forth.

"I told them you were fine, but they wouldn’t believe me, really."

Xiaoxue came over with a bunch of oranges along with the others, and handed one to Zhang Ze.

Zhang Ze didn’t take it, first because he had no free hand, as he was embracing his Junior Sister.

Secondly, after knowing the background, seeing these oranges made Zhang Ze fall into a dilemma of ethics and botany.

Especially watching Xiaoxue eat those oranges growing from herself one by one...

So weird, is this the world of plants?

While Zhang Ze was staring blankly at Xiaoxue eating oranges, Li started misbehaving again. It climbed down from his shoulder, rummaging around on Zhang Ze, wanting to squirm between Zhang Ze and Chen Qin.

"What do you want?" Zhang Ze picked Li up.

Li blinked its little eyes, looking around, secretly exchanged a glance with Lily, then whispered in Zhang Ze’s ear.

"What does that fate taste like? Is it delicious?"

Li’s question was indeed hard to answer, the taste of fate...

Seeing Zhang Ze lost in thought, Li became anxious, "So much fate, didn’t you keep any? Not even a little?"

"That’s someone else’s stuff, why would I seize their fate?" Zhang Ze looked at Li, a bit speechless.

Li hurriedly waved, "We also studied at Dragon Tiger Mountain, we know people become unlucky without fate. But you could just borrow a little."

"You could divide a person’s fate into a hundred parts, take just one part, then take from a hundred people. That way they won’t get hurt, and we can have a piece of fate.

"And since those people’s fate foundation is still there, what they lose will be replenished, and our Thousand Mechanism Pavilion can compensate them... everyone would be happy.

"Like handling pork without touching pork, yet ending with greasy hands.

"If we could safely and easily replicate this process of extracting fate, we could set up a fate bank, earn interest on deposited fate, even lend it out, returning nine for thirteen.

"Also, also, one could invest in someone’s fate, selling high and buying low, exchanging fate and spirit stones at a certain rate, we could..."
