Jiang Shumiao grew impatient and said fiercely, "Now I'm asking you a question."
"You crippled my cultivation, leaving me like a useless person, and you still want to get information out of me? Don't even think about it!"
Master Bihai's eyes were as gloomy as a venomous snake, and he said hatefully, "If you have the guts, then kill me."
Jiang Shumiao sat cross-legged in the armchair, blinking her beautiful big eyes, "I can search your soul."
Master Bihai's expression suddenly changed, his eyes filled with horror.
"you…"
Jiang Shumiao jumped off the chair and squatted in front of him. Her voice was childish, but what she said was quite chilling.
"If a living person has their soul searched, they will surely be reborn as an idiot. You should understand that, apart from gods and demons, all living beings will return to the underworld after death, where the judge will settle their merits and demerits before reincarnation. You have countless grievances, and you will be severely punished in the underworld. But you have also done good deeds in the past, so you will not be reborn into the inhuman realm. You will most likely live a life of poverty and hardship, and if you are an idiot, there will be no chance of turning your life around."
Master Bihai's face changed constantly like a palette of colors, and his voice trembled.
Who exactly are you?
Jiang Shumiao smiled, and in the blink of an eye, she was back in the armchair, still sitting cross-legged, her expression now cold and dignified.
"I am the God of Chaos."
Fuqu knelt down immediately, feeling her soul tremble, even more terrifying than when the Heavenly Dao had just unleashed its fury.
Bi Hai Zhenren looked horrified.
"You...you are Qing..."
Jiang Shumiao looked at him calmly.
Master Bihai shuddered, unable to utter another word. He prostrated himself on the ground, kowtowing repeatedly.
"This humble immortal was blind and offended Your Majesty. Please forgive me..."
Jiang Shumiao asked again, "What is the Immortal Sect plotting?"
Master Bihai dared not conceal the truth any longer. "Three years ago, the five sect leaders foresaw that the Immortal Sect was facing a calamity of annihilation, originating from the mortal realm, yet they could not determine the person's background. They then consulted the Divine Clan, but the Divine Clan ignored them. Over the years, the Immortal Sect has been driven by the Divine Clan, relentlessly exterminating demons, and now that the Immortal Sect is in trouble, the Divine Clan stands by coldly. The Immortal Sect feels deeply disheartened, and therefore summoned all disciples back to the East Sea in preparation for any eventuality."
This matches what Wen Zhixuan said.
Jiang Shumiao then asked, "Then why have you come to the human world this time?"
Master Bihai said, “Since the disciples of the Immortal Sect were recalled, the five sect leaders have worked together to set up a barrier in the East Sea and then went into seclusion to cultivate. Last month, a thunderbolt struck from the sky, and a crack appeared in the barrier. Master saw the scene in the mortal world through the Mirror of Rebirth and learned of the rumors of a goddess reincarnated in the mortal world. Therefore, he sent me to investigate. If the goddess is real, we can invite her back to the East Sea, which may help our Immortal Sect avoid the danger of annihilation.”
Jiang Shumiao thought for a moment, and realized that what Master Bihai was referring to was the thunderbolt that struck down from the heavens on the day she entered the academy and became a disciple.
"You want to take me back while I'm still young, don't you?"
Master Bihai dared not lie, so he lowered his head even further and trembled even more violently.
Jiang Shumiao stared at him for a long time before slowly asking, "Is what you're saying true?"
"This humble fairy dares not deceive the Holy Venerable."
Master Bihai sounded fearful, worried that she might disperse his three souls and seven spirits in a fit of anger. He quickly added, "There is one more thing. Since the founding of the sect by our ancestor, the Immortal Realm has only existed for ten thousand years. I wonder why the Holy Venerable mentioned fifteen thousand years?"
Jiang Shumiao was taken aback.
Before the war between gods and demons broke out, the immortal sects had stood in the East Sea for five thousand years.
I learned from Wen Zhixuan that she had been dead for ten thousand years.
That adds up to 15,000 years.
Could it be that she has traveled back five thousand years?
The demons exist in a parallel world, parallel to the realm of gods, where space and time are distorted. After the great war, space shifted...
No wonder, no wonder this world is so twisted and strange.
Everything makes sense now.
The gods, out of hatred for the demons, tacitly allowed the immortal sects to slaughter demons. However, the gods had not forgotten who the culprits of the great war were, so when the immortal sects were in trouble, they stood idly by, leading to the destruction of the immortal sects and the decline of the mortal sects.
Thousands of years later, Wen Zhixuan, a descendant of the Xuanmen sect, travels through time.
I see.
