Zuan nodded. Although the skill "Poison in the Dagger" was incredibly powerful, it had a flaw: you had to be able to hurt your opponent. If the skill gap between the two sides was too large, and you couldn't hurt your opponent, then the skill naturally couldn't be activated.
He originally wanted to inquire about the keyboard, but the other party shook his head and said, "This matter involves too many causes and effects. I can only tell you the most that is related to me. You don't need to ask anymore."
Zuan said irritably, "Then what can be said?"
The Emperor of Fengdu replied, "For example, this trial."
"Looks like I've passed the third level too?" Zuan couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
"You are indeed very clever, worthy of being my friend," the Emperor of Fengdu said with a smile.
Zuan: "..."

“You can’t just say things like that,” the Emperor of Fengdu stroked his beard. “I have been fair and just from beginning to end. The fact that you feel this way only proves that you are destined by Heaven.”
Zaun fell silent. Fate, perhaps...?
In the past, he would have thought this was feudal superstition, but now that he has cultivated to this level, he can more and more vaguely feel the power of destiny.
He quickly came to his senses and asked, "By the way, why would the Three Pure Ones of Taoism allow all of this to happen? Laozi is the ancestor of the Li Tang imperial family, how could he allow Buddhism to encroach on his private territory?"
