“Zhou Zunzi, you didn’t come here today just to beat up the Holy Son of our Universal Holy Land, did you?”
The Holy Mother of the Universe slowly approached Zhou Xingdou, the clattering of her high heels against the jade tablet echoing in the empty hall along with the rustling of her long robes trailing on the ground.
The voice startled Zhou Xingdou, but he remained calm and tried to find something unusual in the words of the Holy Mother of the Universe.
That's what Du Buhui is called!
As Wan Tianzhou's mother, the Holy Mother of the Universe knew about Zhou Xingdou's past relationship with Wan Tianzhou. Given that there were only the two of them present, it was impossible for her to call Wan Tianzhou her holy son.
Moreover, when she spoke of the Son of God, Our Lady of the Universe's tone was somewhat distant, as if she were not discussing her own son, but rather as if she were talking about a stranger.
This made Zhou Xingdou's eyes flash. He didn't need to worry about this and that like others; he wasn't a member of the Universal Holy Land. He said directly in a deep voice:
"Did the Virgin Mary consider that to be ten thousand days of daylight?"
The Holy Mother of the Universe did not answer, but her beautiful eyes suddenly dimmed slightly as she asked in return:
"Does Zhou Zunzi really think he is?"
Upon hearing this, Zhou Xingdou's eyes narrowed slightly. It seemed that the situation in the Universal Holy Land was more complicated than he had imagined. The Universal Holy Mother knew perfectly well that the person in that body was not her son.
This was something he hadn't expected at all, and it was completely illogical.
How could a mother tolerate her son being usurped? Moreover, judging from the information she received, the Holy Mother of the Universe not only tolerated this matter, but seemed to dote on Du Buhui even more than Wan Tianzhou.
In that instant, Zhou Xingdou felt that the Holy Mother of the Universe was acting and making fun of him. After all, his battle with Du Buhui and his conversation with Wan Jiang could not escape the Holy Mother of the Universe's discerning eyes.
The Holy Mother of the Universe should be able to guess what I'm thinking, so she's joking with me?
But the words of the Holy Mother of the Universe that followed dispelled Zhou Xingdou's concerns:
“Even you can tell, how could I, as a mother, not know if that’s my child or not?”
Yes, even without the system, Zhou Xingdou had probably guessed it back then, but he just couldn't be sure.
As the mother of all days, how could Our Lady of the Universe not notice the changes in her son? This cannot be explained by amnesia alone.
Zhou Xingdou didn't even bother to appreciate the extremely voluptuous figure of the Holy Mother of the Universe, and frowned as he asked:
"Since the Holy Mother knew, why didn't she expose it?"
Even Zhou Xingdou couldn't understand this. He knew Du Buhui's identity as the chosen one, which was why he hesitated to expose him directly.
But how could Our Lady of the Universe remain unmoved?
As long as the Holy Mother of the Universe exposes it, even if the Ancestor of the Holy Land of the Universe doesn't find the problem, it will still make things very difficult for Du Buhui.
After all, even Wan Tianzhou's biological mother suspected him, so even without any evidence, people would still have considerable doubts about Du Buhui. Under such circumstances, Du Buhui would eventually reveal a flaw.
However, the Holy Mother of the Universe did not answer directly, but slowly said:
"Two years ago, after the ancestor examined the Holy Son's soul and found no problems, I went to the Heavenly Mystery Ancient Pavilion in the Taiyi Dao Domain and paid the price of half my lifespan and ten immortality pills to ask the Heavenly Mystery Master to make a calculation for me."
Zhou Xingdou naturally knew about the Heavenly Mystery Ancient Pavilion, because it was also an unparalleled immortal force in the Primordial Realm.
The Tianji Ancient Pavilion is most skilled at deducing heavenly secrets, and Tianjizi is the founding patriarch of the Tianji Ancient Pavilion.
No one knows how many years Tianjizi has lived. Some say that Tianjizi has existed since the beginning of the Primordial Realm and even witnessed its birth.
Some say that Tianjizi is just a code name, and when the previous Tianjizi of Tianji Ancient Pavilion dies, someone else will take his place.
Extremely mysterious, he is also known as the number one strategist in the Primordial Realm.
Since no problems could be found with Wan Tianzhou's soul, and the Holy Mother of the Universe had doubts, seeking divination from the Heavenly Mystery Ancient Pavilion was indeed the only way.
However, the price of half his lifespan and ten immortality pills still surprised Zhou Xingdou.
The cost of half her lifespan would almost certainly eliminate any possibility of the Holy Mother of the Universe making further breakthroughs in the future.
Unlike the Zhou family, the Holy Land of the Universe does not have the Elixir of Immortality. Even a Holy Lord cannot use it at will.
He was willing to sacrifice his future breakthrough opportunities and the sect's foundation, just to confirm the condition of his child.
This made Stephen Chow sigh, realizing that maternal love could be so great, and then he asked with a slightly somber expression:
"What did Tianjizi deduce?"
He said that my son had indeed been possessed, but fate cannot be defied; it was the arrangement of fate.
He also said that Tianzhou's soul was still alive, and if I made any rash moves against Tianzhou, I would surely die. The only way to save Tianzhou's life was to help this beast who had possessed my son and pretend not to know anything about it.
The Holy Mother of the Universe spoke calmly, but her expression was unusually serene. However, Zhou Xingdou knew that the Holy Mother of the Universe was probably suffering immensely inside.
Knowing full well that her son had been possessed by a villain, she couldn't expose the crime and seek revenge. Instead, she had to help Du Buhui and even pretend not to know, feigning friendship with the usurped soul.
Even Zhou Xingdou couldn't help but be moved by this, and he murmured with a cold look in his eyes:
"Heaven's will... Heaven's way... Look at what you've done!"
Neither of the two chosen ones I have met is a truly upright and selfless person.
It seems that Heaven has gone blind, choosing these people as the chosen ones and protecting them. Does Heaven still have any reason to exist?
However, it must be said that Tianjizi is indeed amazing. He was able to deduce that Du Buhui was involved in the destiny of heaven, and he probably knew about the existence of the chosen one. If I have the chance, I will go to the Taiyi Dao Domain to meet him.
Stephen Chow then asked another question:
"Did Tianjizi mention a way to break this deadlock?"
If Tianjizi had a way to break the deadlock and free Wan Tianzhou's soul from Du Buhui's control, he could immediately purchase the Ignore Kill Card and directly blast Du Buhui to death.
"No, Tianjizi might know how to break the deadlock, but the Tianji Ancient Pavilion's principle is to follow the workings of Heaven. When it comes to matters of destiny, they will never reveal the method to break the deadlock, however..."
At this point, the Holy Mother of the Universe paused, her beautiful eyes scrutinizing Zhou Xingdou from head to toe, as if trying to see right through him.
Zhou Xingdou frowned slightly at the way the Holy Mother of the Universe was scrutinizing him, but didn't say anything more, only continuing to ask:
"But what?"
The Holy Mother of the Universe also withdrew her gaze and continued:
"When Senior Tianji saw how anxious I was about my son, he took pity on me and, although he did not explicitly tell me how to break the deadlock, he gave me some subtle guidance."
He said, "My Heavenly Mystery Pavilion, which follows the will of Heaven, cannot help you. If you want to go against the will of Heaven, go find someone surnamed Zhou."
Zhou Xingdou's eyes narrowed slightly, which was almost an explicit indication:
"The person surnamed Zhou, are you referring to my Zhou family?"
The Holy Mother of the Universe, trailing her long, golden-threaded white robe, approached Zhou Xingdou once more, a profound meaning appearing in her beautiful eyes, and said in a somewhat mysterious tone:
Yes and no.
