Xia Xiao didn't dare to have too high expectations, but stared at the stone statue, waiting for it to make a deep voice.

"I was once the earth energy in the body of the ancestor of the spiritual contract, and was released at the end of the war. Therefore, I did not see the whole process, but as a part of her body, I still know the whole story. But the so-called objectivity may be just subjective to me."

"Objective is objective, and subjective is subjective. The former is what really happened and is the truth. The latter is mixed with subjective conjecture and is not necessarily true. How can we confuse them?"

Xia Xiao's words were filled with resentment and dissatisfaction. He would not be like this normally, but now he was too lazy to show respect and just wanted the statue to tell him what he was talking about. But it spoke in a roundabout way, which made Xia Xiao curl his lips. He was even more dissatisfied and wanted to tear it down.

"There is no such thing as absolute objectivity in the world. This is true for everything that has been done, especially when it comes to history. Things recorded by later generations are passed down from generation to generation, and there is no telling where they might have been distorted. In addition, the source is not right in the first place, so the streams that have never been lacking in history are just a branch of the river."

"so what?"

"What I consider objective is what the Spiritual Contract Ancestor wants me to see, so what I call objective is just subjective to you. Except for the master herself, what others say is just their own conjecture. No one can imagine what she went through at the time and why she did these things."

"Can Quedan's words be trusted?"

"Is he still alive?"

The surprise in the statue's words made Xia Xiao smell something strange that he wanted to know, so he asked:

"What do you mean by asking this? Aren't you in the south of the South China Sea to guard him? If he dies, why would you still be here?"

The stone statue fell silent. Xia Xiao followed closely, wading through the water with his feet. His face was full of anxiety, which made Ah Zhu feel a little obsessed and crazy. It seemed that because of the splash of water caused by Xia Xiao, he suddenly fell into the deep sea and lost his life in an instant.

"Speak!"

"Quedan should have passed away..."

The statue's voice trembled slightly, and Xia Xiao's reaction was fierce. If Que Dan was already dead, who was the mastermind behind that woman? It couldn't be that she directed and acted by herself, and her strength was so strong that it seemed like someone was giving her strength, like a jinx spitting on her apprentice, and the latter could slap the little god and mortal into the ground.

The woman in the dark often mentioned the ancestor, as if everything she did was backed by him, so she was lawless. But since she was called the ancestor, there should be enough evidence. The woman's strength was not as stupid and easy to deceive as Ah Zhu. She obviously would not believe such nonsense with just a few words. Thinking of this, Xia Xiao asked again:

"Why do you say he's dead?"

"In my memory, the master's strength was equal to that of Que Dan at the beginning. Although the latter had the physique of a wild beast, the master used the suppression of the five elements to keep Que Dan at a disadvantage. Then, for some reason, the master's strength skyrocketed. He pierced Que Dan with the gold dragon beast that could transform into thousands of divine swords, and evaporated more than half of the South China Sea with the fire beast, which made the victory and defeat even more disparate. In the end, the five elements gave birth to each other and strengthened each other. He defeated Que Dan with the Burning Heaven Emperor Flame and threw him into the deep sea."

"At that time, Que Dan was already dying, but the master wanted to leave this world for unknown reasons, so he hurriedly sealed it, along with the Great Emperor Qishi of the East of the East China Sea. At that time, Que Dan fought back, and I was not surprised. But after so many years, the power that constantly collides with the seal is no longer Que Dan, but another kind of creature!"

Xia Xiao and Ah Zhu looked at each other and finally got some useful information. The latter immediately made a judgment and said:

“That woman was deceived.”

"Does the other creature come from the southern continent?"

Xia Xiao immediately believed in his master's judgment, but the stone statue's expressionless face was still facing one direction, and it said quietly:

"What exists over there may not be a continent, otherwise the master would not be able to enter."

“Is it connected to other worlds?”

Xia Xiao thought it was possible, after all, he came from another world. But why would the creatures in that world set their sights on the Great Wilderness? Humans' wild imaginations were very different from those of animals, and could also lead people astray. Xia Xiao stopped at the right time and looked at the statue, shaking his head.

"have no idea."

"Where can I go to see Que Dan?"

Xia Xiao's question made Azhu turn around suddenly, his face full of disbelief. If he met Quedan, wouldn't that be courting death?

Putting aside the hatred between Quedan and the ancestor of the spirit contract, the anger accumulated over the years alone was enough to crush Xia Xiao into powder. Ah Zhu's first reaction was fear, but Xia Xiao remembered what the woman said. She said that she and her ancestors wanted to kill him before, but now they wanted him to be their companion, so they would definitely not kill him.

"have no idea."

The statue began to shake its head monotonously. Xia Xiao did not give up immediately and asked again:

"Can Quedan pass through this seal and get in touch with the people in the Great Wilderness World?"

"have no idea."

"Then tell me, did your master really become a god, or did he go to the moon? Can you get in touch with her?"

"have no idea."

Xia Xiao's helpless look was filled with some anger.

"Well, I don't know anything."

“Can its words be trusted?”

Azhu held Xia Xiao's arm, somewhat curious, but the latter thought for a long time and shook his head.

"have no idea."

"oops!"

Ah Zhu pounded his leg in frustration. After all this trouble, he still didn't understand anything.

"I want to ask you a question."

The sudden words from the statue made Xia Xiao stop circling in annoyance. In the dark hall, he looked up at the statue's face covered in light, raised his chin to signal it to ask.

"In all these years in this world, have you ever understood the true meaning of life?"

"I dare not say clearly, I can only say that I understand."

"Speaking."

"Personally, I think the meaning of life is to realize your own value and pursue what you want in a short period of time."

"What do you want?"

"stable."

The statue didn't understand that compared to God and eternity, this word seemed too monotonous and ordinary.

What's the point of stability? Can you escape the hunting of death and the constraints of the world? Obviously not, so the stone statue can't figure it out, but Xia Xiao's thinking has always been unique. He doesn't like to follow the crowd. It's better to be firm in his own ideas.

The more he experienced, the clearer it became about what Xia Xiao wanted. He wanted to settle down in a quiet town, spend the rest of his life with the one he loved, have a lovely daughter, open a small shop, and go out for a walk whenever he felt like it. That would be great.

If we have to impose some grand ambitions, it is to hope for world peace and no more wars. Xia Xiao doesn't like to care about irrelevant things. He is not a Buddha in a temple, but he doesn't want his family to smell the smell of war. Because once the war breaks out, two people will always rush out of the Xia Mansion, or even more.
