The matter of the second child has come to an end. But compared to the second child, who is neither born nor has anything happened yet, there is still something else to be done.
After dinner, a ghost messenger cautiously knocked on the door of the Qin residence. He brought news from the Ghost King, who said he had found something, and Bai Hao could now investigate it.
When Bai Hao received the letter, he remembered Du Hanzhang's matter, but he had forgotten about Erzai because of the matter.
However, now there is a better option than using his divine power to see.
Although Qin Nan did not possess divine power, his destiny and affiliation had once wandered beyond the heavens and beyond the Heavenly Dao. Therefore, Bai Moxuan inherited his bloodline and would also come into contact with some ethereal and transformative power.
Of course, Bai Moxuan is not capable of reaching this level now, but Bai Hao can, after all, he is the original Bai Ze, a naturally auspicious beast.
Bai Hao borrowed Bai Moxuan's power slightly to investigate the things and people he wanted to know.
After a long time, he held the sleeping Bai Moxuan and channeled divine power into him to help him recover.
The ghost messenger, who was waiting outside, nervously accepted Bai Hao's reply and immediately fled.
The powerful figures in this mansion are there to ward off evil spirits, auspicious beasts, and even the ancestral dragon. How could a mere ghost like him possibly withstand such power?
If it weren't for the Ghost King giving him a wisp of his aura, he would have run away eight hundred meters away long ago, and would never have dared to get even a little bit closer to the Qin residence.
Bai Muqiu and Long Chengxiu had already returned to their guest rooms to rest, and Chi Wei and the others had also washed up and gone upstairs.
Qin Nan put Bai Moxuan back on the bed, and as soon as she went downstairs, she saw Bai Hao, who had seen off the ghost messenger, return to his room.
"They've left?"
"Um."
"You saw it?"
"I should say, I understand."
"You know? The person behind it all, and Du Hanzhang who escaped?"
"Um."
"Did you tell the Ghost King?"
"No."
"Revealing secrets?"
"Well, I can't say, but I gave a warning. Whether we can avoid this calamity depends on how the underworld decides to handle this matter."
"That Pure Fox Scarlet?"
“He has already been tainted by karma and it won’t be easy for him to get rid of it. But, apart from swindling money, this old fox has been accumulating merit and good fortune, which is why he met Xuan Qingtang.”
"Is Xuan Qingtang also involved in this matter?"
"Yes, although he is a black fox, he has obtained an opportunity to cultivate the path of immortality. If he succeeds, he will become a fox immortal, not a fox immortal in the human world, but a god of the Mountain and Sea Realm."
"Wouldn't he go to the realm of gods in the future?"
"No, the Xuanhu and Xuanbao were born in the sacred mountain and have cultivated to various levels of cultivation, so it does not affect their habitat."
"That's good, they'll surely enjoy a carefree life in the mortal world from now on."
"Hmm...that's not necessarily true."
"Huh? Why? Xuan Qingtang is very much like a wandering Taoist priest. Could it be that he prefers to cultivate in seclusion?"
"This is a long story, it starts with his background."
"life experience?"
Bai Hao thought for a moment, then gestured for Qin Nan to sit down.
"The Xuanhu was once one of the divine beasts protected by the lineage of the Queen Mother of the West's sacred mountain. You know a little about the Xuanhu. They are the most skilled cultivators among the fox clan. What other fox clans can achieve in a year of cultivation, they can usually achieve in just half a year. Those with good talent might achieve it in three months or even a month."
But everything has its gains and losses, so the Xuanhu lineage is naturally indifferent to emotions. In other words, they are naturally less emotional, but of course they are not lacking in compassion.
Xuan Qingtang was one of the best among the Xuanhu, with outstanding talent. However, the price he paid for this was that he was not only unfeeling, but also heartless.
This ruthlessness is not the ruthlessness spoken of in the classics. It is a lack of knowledge about love and affection, not only romantic love, but also familial love, friendship, and so on.
He resembled a Taoist priest because he possessed righteousness and divine compassion; otherwise, he would not have attained divinity.
Qin Nan nodded, somewhat understanding. No wonder Xuan Qingtang reacted so strongly to Chun Hu Fei's lewd behavior towards him; it was something he couldn't comprehend.
Moreover, aside from being shocked, he didn't have any other... how to put it, he didn't have any normal emotional reaction.
Seeing that Qin Nan understood, Bai Hao continued, "He was released to the mortal world to refine his Dao heart. Although he doesn't know love, he can still experience life in the mortal world. He doesn't understand, but he has to go through it."
Actually, he shouldn't have met Chunhu Fei in the first place; fate forced him to change things... Of course, perhaps that was the right thing to do, but anyway... I can't really say for sure about this.
"Because Chunhufei met Du Hanzhang?"
"Yes and no. To be precise, from the very beginning, his schemes, his deceptions, and his attempts to defy fate, have influenced many lives and destinies, much like the butterfly effect that humans talk about."
But fate and destiny aren't so easily changed. Some people and some things are predetermined; even if they are altered, it's only a process, and the final outcome remains the same.
"Then, wouldn't this person's efforts to defy fate be in vain?"
"A choice is often just a choice, and the result is not necessarily the result."
"Will this lead to turmoil in the human world, or a calamity for the underworld?"
Bai Hao remained silent for a long time, then said, "Both."
"Has this happened a very long time ago? Was the place where Muqiu and Long Chengxiu met the site of their plot? And what was that unknown mirror that Muqiu obtained?"
"It's been a long time, but not that long, about two hundred years. It was a place he borrowed to raise corpses, and it had the feng shui of a yin dragon."
The reason why Long Chengxiu was affected by it is because the Yin Dragon Feng Shui place is the opposite and extreme of the Dragon Vein Feng Shui, and has a greater impact on the Dragon Clan.
As for that mirror, or rather, the fragments of that mirror, it was from a very, very long time ago. That thing was probably an innate treasure born during our infancy, but we can't find out what happened to that mirror, which turned into many fragments.
Mu Qiu obtained one of the fragments; the others were scattered everywhere, some already possessed by owners, like the Chaos Lotus, a companion of Pangu, now broken into pieces.
Scattered among the people?
"Yes, although humans make up the majority of the human world, there are also spirits, monsters, immortals, and ghosts, as well as some human cultivators, but those are not people that ordinary people can come into contact with."
"That's fine. If such a magical artifact appeared in the world of ordinary people, it would probably cause great chaos."
"Fortunately, the immortal energy has been allocated to the immortal realm, and the ghost energy has all been returned to the underworld. The spiritual energy in the human world is thin, and cultivation is not easy, so it is not so easy for major trouble to occur."
"Isn't this a huge mess right now?"
"No, not for the underworld. As for the human world, it is troublesome, but there are tall people who can stand up for the world, so there is no need to worry."
Qin Nan nodded, then glanced down at the pregnant fruit in Bai Hao's hand and suddenly paused.
"Brother Hao, do you think this will be the calamity that Erzai is destined to face?"
Bai Hao rubbed his head and laughed, "No, this can't be considered a calamity. Think about your calamities; this little thing is nothing."
"Oh, well, sigh, I hope the little one won't end up like me."
"Everything is preordained; observe the changes calmly and let nature take its course."
