During the trip to Yun Country, Xia Xiao learned about the grading of the universe. Combined with the experiences of Yu Shangyan and Que Dan, it can be basically confirmed that people in each world will be crushed by the previous level, and even the strongest will be lacking. But Que Dan survived so tenaciously, he will definitely not give up, but he is still unclear about how to make a big fuss.

"What do you want to say?"

Xia Xiao felt a little headache and his eyes were filled with anger, but Que Dan didn't care and just said:

"I am simply telling you that you thought the Emperor was not by your side, but he was actually monitoring you from the beginning to the end, he just changed the way he did it."

"Master can't possibly harm me."

"Before he became your master, he was already related to Yu Shangyan. I don't know the details of their relationship, but he is not as perfect as you think. Think about it carefully, how many times have I tried to kill you, but I failed every time. Do you think this is a coincidence? It's nothing more than him protecting you in secret, or you can say he is protecting the mark on you. Before you have strong enough vitality, she will not take action, but when you realize the truth or reach the peak of the towering peak, she will be sucked dry."

"You can say whatever you want, but you don't need to comment on my master!"

Even though the surroundings were in chaos and pitch black, there was still a bright and ferocious light in Xia Xiao's eyes. This warning could not scare Que Dan. How could the suffering and life-and-death threats he had experienced be compared to Xia Xiao's?

Que Dan was once dying under the seal, barely surviving, just wanting to stay alive. At that time, he was supported by hatred, and later he devoured everyone invited from another world, no matter how strong the man was or how beautiful the girl's smile was. At that time, he threw away his conscience and the last few wisps of compassion, and fell into the shameful path of evil.

This is the similarity between Que Dan and Xia Xiao. They are both possessed by demons, and no matter what they lose, they cannot lose their lives. They have both fought hard to live, but at this moment, Que Dan did not argue with Xia Xiao, but just said quietly:

"I have a way to free you from Yu Shangyan's control. You just need to answer me. Do you want to listen or not?"

Xia Xiao felt that Quedan's behavior was a little abnormal. Everything he did now seemed to be to prevent Yu Shangyan from getting his vitality and becoming stronger. But Yu Shangyan said that Quedan would be able to break free in the next ten years, while she would need another hundred years. With such a big time difference, couldn't Quedan improve his strength and defeat Yu Shangyan? Or did he think that he could become extremely strong in ten years and be absorbed by Yu Shangyan, catching him off guard? Besides, was Yu Shangyan lying?

Xia Xiao had no way to verify it, but he was very confident in himself. In ten years, he would definitely reach the Cantian realm, and it was not certain that he would reach the Dao realm. In this way, Que Dan's worry was indeed possible.

There will never be a lack of troubles. Xia Xiao felt like he had eaten a bunch of peppercorns, which exploded in his mouth and were extremely bitter. How should he describe this feeling? It was probably like solving one problem only to find that there was another one waiting for him. It was as bitter as eating shit.

After letting out a long breath, Xia Xiao stopped and said:

"Speak!"

"I will give you something that can help you seal the mark. You will find that after the mark is sealed, your five elements of vitality can still be used. It is something left by the Human Emperor and has nothing to do with your ability. Although I don't know where you come from, maybe it's from an inferior world, but the complete five elements are your innate ability, just like the Human Emperor!"

"How can I believe what you say? Where is the thing?"

"Taking it or placing the seal in advance will only attract the attention of Qingxunzi and Yu Shangyan. When you reach Cangtian, go find Heihuang. I will stay silent for a while to break the seal. If you don't believe that Qingxunzi is Yu Shangyan's lackey, when you return to the human world, you can tell him that you have some way to seal the mark and see how he reacts."

"Are you trying to instigate a rebellion between me and Master?"

“Smart people know what to do.”

It's not arrogance. Xia Xiao thinks he is not stupid. It's okay to be suspicious, but as long as he tests the other party, no matter words or actions, it will be a sharp needle that will pierce the other party's heart. Xia Xiao will not be so stupid as to test his master. He is very firm in this idea.

"What are you going to do once you break the seal?"

When Xia Xiao asked again, Quedan had disappeared. He left in a hurry, but for a person like him, it was not surprising. The darkness around Xia Xiao and Ah Zhu gradually faded away, like thick ink washed away by water. The clear sky was vast and the breeze was blowing, which made Xia Xiao sigh again.

"Where are we going?"

"Southland."

Ah Zhu was a little bit unbelievable. Shouldn't he discuss something with the Pope at this time? How to go to the South Country? Are they really going to have a big meal? Xia Xiao knew that Ah Zhu felt that this was not good, but with a gloomy face, he gently advised:

"It's okay. We need to sort ourselves out. Your mind is in a mess too, right?"

"That's right. I can't figure out which of them is telling the truth and which is lying. It's so mysterious."

"In fact, what they said was both true and false. It's just that they stood on different positions, so they all played tricks and exaggerated some things. But it doesn't matter. As long as we walk carefully, we won't lose our footing and we won't fall off the tightrope."

Ah Zhu thought it made sense, so she took Xia Xiao's hand, rode on the little narwhal, and swam in the misty clouds. Without worrying too much, they listened to the ethereal whale sounds and slowly headed towards the human world. The road was extremely long, thousands of feet high and far from the ground, but they gradually felt warm.

Xia Xiao and Ah Zhu were both silent. This was their habit of thinking after a big event. It was said that the waves behind the Yangtze River pushed the waves in front. Xia Xiao was not as strong as the waves in front, and was swept up by them. Now his eyes were dark, he had no direction, and he couldn't judge how to go.

Xia Xiao's teacher once said that when he didn't know how to proceed, he should stay the same in the face of change. He needed time to calm down and think. People who couldn't hold back would always show their true colors in a hurry, so at this time, it would be best to go to the South Country beach to have a seafood feast and barbecue.

The little narwhal listened to Xia Xiao and swam southwest, because on the map, Yun Country was in the northeast of Nan Country. Xia Xiao didn't know how long he had been in a daze, but when he woke up and stopped thinking about Que Dan's words, he turned his head and saw Ah Zhu staring blankly at the front of the little narwhal.

A strong arm embraced Ah Zhu, startling her. His fingers pinched the flesh on Ah Zhu's face. Xia Xiao couldn't help laughing and asked her what she was thinking about. She answered seriously:

"You just said that the Yangtze River's waves behind push the waves in front. I was wondering what the Yangtze River is and why the waves behind can't push the waves in front."

"Did I tell you?"

"You've been mumbling for a long time. It's always like this. You must be confused when you get old."

"You are the one who is getting old and confused. You will become demented in the future. If I don't wipe your butt, you will eat your poop."

"Hey, you're bad..."
