Mingxiao turned to look at her and saw that she was listening with great interest, which made him feel heartbroken.
I really don't know what her brain is made of. After going through so much, she never thought about why others couldn't lift that stone, but she could. And why Lord Haoze, who has an extremely bad temper, is so cold and indifferent to others, but listens to her so obediently.
Shi Lan waited quietly for a while, and when she saw it stop talking, she turned to look at it.
"You said that the God Lord has done so many things for Stone, shouldn't Stone be willing to do anything for him?"
Shi Lan asked blankly, "How would I know?"
Mingxiao glared at her and said, "If you were that stone, what would you do?"
Shi Lan was bewildered. The problem was, she wasn't like that. Did she think that whatever she said would happen to the stone?
Seeing Shi Lan's blank expression, Ming Xiao held back for a while, but still jumped up in a fit of rage, pointing his furry paws at Shi Lan and saying, "I knew you weren't very bright before, but I never thought you were this stupid. You clearly know that no one else can get the Chaos Stone, but didn't you ever think about what you have to do with it?"
Shi Lan nodded and honestly said, "I do, but didn't you say..."
She suddenly stopped, and only then did she realize that Mingxiao had never explained why. Every time she asked a question, it inexplicably redirected her to another topic, and she had been so foolish as to not notice.
Mingxiao hung his head listlessly.
Well, Lord Lan's brain isn't working properly. It's not like it just found out today. But she's kind-hearted by nature. Knowing that the adults have done so much for her, she'll surely agree to help, right?
“Since the master has already done this, I might as well tell you. You are that Chaos Stone, your Dharma name is Lan Xianjun. Those who are chasing you are from the Immortal Realm and the God Realm. As for their purpose, it is nothing more than someone instructing them. Of course, it is also possible that they took advantage of your inability to recover and killed you directly. In this way, the Chaos Stones scattered in various worlds will release the chaotic power inside, and they can also use this to comprehend the Great Dao.” Mingxiao waved his claw, and a stone almost the same size as Shi Lan suddenly appeared. “This is the stone marrow that the master helped you retrieve. With it, plus the one you brought back before, you have about 60% of it. Those fragments left in other worlds will be attracted and automatically gather here. Your true form will soon be formed.”
...So I'm just that tragic stone that got cannon fodder?
Shi Lan was stunned. No matter how hard she racked her brains, she never expected that she would have such a high-class yet naive background.
When Mingxiao saw her carefully touching the stalactite, the corner of his mouth twitched involuntarily.
Inside the space, the stones piled on the platform, the moment she touched the stone marrow, seemed to be swallows returning to their nests, sticking to the stone marrow and instantly becoming one.
Shi Lan watched with curiosity for a long time. Although she had not actually experienced it herself, just by looking at the images from that time and the extent to which the stone was broken, she knew how intense the lightning strike she had endured was. If it weren't for the giant dragon's desperate protection, and if she hadn't escaped with her faint spiritual consciousness, she probably wouldn't be here now.
Thinking of the shocking scene she had witnessed, Shi Lan was overwhelmed with emotion. She finally calmed down from her excitement. So, Ming Xiao's question was actually guiding her to willingly save Hao Ze.
Thinking of this, Shi Lan shook her head. Even if she wasn't a Chaos Stone, she would still go if Ming Xiao said a few more words.
However, seeing Mingxiao staring at her awkwardly, Shi Lan still obediently asked, "You said Haoze is in danger?"
Mingxiao had been staring at her coldly. When she finally remembered, he nodded and said, "That's right, perhaps it will be long before it falls."
Upon hearing this, Shi Lan immediately became anxious. Although she was still uneasy about what she was about to do, she couldn't bear to watch Haoze die no matter what.
"Didn't you say I could save him? Take me there quickly."
Shi Lan rushed to Ming Xiao's side, eager to go immediately.
Seeing that her anxiety and eagerness were no less than his own, Mingxiao felt that her little heart was at peace. He thought she should let her know how much the adults had done for her, so that she wouldn't cause trouble all the time and make the adults clean up her messes.
"Over here," Mingxiao turned his chubby body and darted towards the place where the spatial mist was thickest.
As it approached, the mist slowly dissipated, revealing Haoze sitting cross-legged with his eyes closed inside.
"What's wrong with him?" Shi Lan rushed over, stood silently for a moment, and when she saw that Haoze did not open his eyes, she asked quietly.
Mingxiao snorted and said, "Your soul has been corrupted by an evil entity, and you are currently fighting against it."
Shi Lan's eyes widened, and she asked curiously, "What kind of evil thing is it?"
Mingxiao said, "It's most likely that bitch who attacked you before."
Shi Lan frowned. "I've fought that person before, and she doesn't seem that strong."
Mingxiao snorted, "The master wanted you to see the world's many facets, so he scattered his divine soul and created over a thousand clones to protect you. Some time ago, in order to fight against those gods and immortals and to help you retrieve the stone marrow, he rashly summoned all his clones back. However, those clones had been in the lower world for too long, and some had forgotten their identities. In order to resolve the matter as soon as possible, the master did not refine all the clones in time, and as a result, he was caught off guard by the evil creature's trick."
Shi Lan immediately became dejected, so he was doing this all for her sake.
“That evil thing is best at using its gentle appearance to lower people’s guard and then erode their hearts. If you can’t resist it, when you wake up, you may not be an adult anymore,” Mingxiao said anxiously, looking at the vine-like shadow slowly but continuously spreading between his eyebrows.
