Chapter 824 Sparring
Qu Shu was stunned for a moment.
Do you believe Lin Zhao?
Of course I believe it.
Although the girl was incredibly naive compared to her, who had lived through so many reincarnations, Qu Shu understood from their interactions over these two lifetimes that just because someone had lived longer didn't mean they were more intelligent than their peers.
For example, for Lin Zhao, living to a ripe old age was utterly useless.
"What did she say?"
Su Bai was not surprised by Qu Shu's reaction. Just as Qu Shu had judged him, Su Bai knew from the moment he saw this person that he could never get rid of Lin Zhao's side.
Whether it was because of the other person's ancient phoenix luck, or the tacit understanding that no one else could penetrate when this person was with Lin Zhao.
If it's Lin Zhao's request, Qu Shu will definitely listen and will definitely do it in that direction.
As for why Lin Zhao didn't explain it to Qu Shu beforehand?
Su Bai sighed.
Lin Zhao probably still wanted to give Qu Shu a chance and let Qu Shu figure things out on his own.
However, what Lin Zhao couldn't understand was that some obsessions simply couldn't be resolved, especially for someone like Qu Shu who appeared aloof and indifferent on the surface but was actually obsessive in nature.
Su Bai said, "Sister Zhao Zhao said that the fate of the Heavenly Phoenix is not insurmountable. The fact that the Ancestral Phoenix's cultivation was almost on par with that of a God Venerable proves this point. You don't need to fight to the death."
Qu Shu's eyelashes trembled: "Approaching infinitely, but is it still a God-Emperor after all? Does this mean that the Heavenly Phoenix can never compare to the Heavenly Phoenix?"
Su Bai scoffed: "That's what you worldly people think. In reality, neither the Ancestral Phoenix nor the Ancestral Phoenix ever said that the Heavenly Phoenix is inferior to the Heavenly Phoenix."
Qu Shu was silent for a moment: "Then why has the Heavenly Phoenix never surpassed the Heavenly Phoenix in the past ten thousand years?"
"Because Tianfeng exiled herself," Su Bai smiled, "willingly becoming Tianhuang's vassal."
Qu Shu squinted.
Su Bai quickly raised his hands and laughed, "Of course, there might be some drawbacks left by the Ancestral Phoenix, which is why the Heavenly Phoenix is not as good as the Heavenly Phoenix. But this is not unimprovable. For example, you are now, and haven't you felt it over the years?"
Qu Shu's eyes flickered slightly.
Indeed, if there is a fundamental difference, no matter what means one uses, it cannot be made up for.
But in reality, after conducting some experiments on himself, he had already surpassed the talents of many Heavenly Phoenixes.
but……
Su Bai interrupted his thoughts: "But the current Heavenly Phoenix's potential is not high enough, so you need to raise it, but not by continuing to use yourself or the souls and lives of innocent people as the price."
Qu Shu asked, "What insightful opinion does Your Majesty the Demon Ancestor have?"
Su Bai said, "The one who tied the knot must untie it. Who caused Tianfeng's limit to be insufficient back then? Let's find that person."
Qu Shu frowned: "You mean, look for Zu Feng?"
Or rather, the burial site of Zu Feng.
Su Bai nodded approvingly.
“I know Sister Zuhuang and Brother-in-law Zufeng. They must be buried together. As for Sister Zuhuang, she had already transformed into countless phoenixes before she died. What was left in the tomb could not be her body. Perhaps it was something else. But as for Brother-in-law Zufeng, his entire lineage is probably in that tomb.”
Therefore, it would be more appropriate to call the cemetery the ancestral phoenix's tomb rather than the ancestral phoenix's tomb.
To raise Tianfeng's limits, you must enter the cemetery. But you need a key to open it.
Thinking of that key, Qu Shu's thin lips slowly pursed.
"Are you thinking that if the Heavenly Phoenix Bone Sword is needed, it will definitely put Sister Zhao Zhao in a dangerous situation?" Su Bai asked.
Qu Shu remained silent.
"Now that I'm here, do you still think it's unsafe to send Sister Zhao Zhao to the Ancestral Phoenix Tomb?"
Qu Shu countered, "Does His Majesty the Demon Ancestor really think that my mother, Huang Zhao, is merely a traitor at the Immortal Emperor level? The blood essence of those Heavenly Phoenix Clan experts obtained by the Tengshe Clan represents much more than just blood essence."
Su Bai's gaze swept knowingly over the puppet beside Qu Shu, and he said, "Of course I know what you're worried about. Huang Zhao was famous not only for her cultivation and talent, but also for her strange puppetry skills that were completely different from the lineage of the Heavenly Phoenix Clan. I didn't expect you to have inherited her skills in this area."
Qu Shu waved his sleeve and said, "It can't be considered as inheriting her skills. This thing is originally the inheritance of the Ancestral Phoenix, so it is more appropriate for me to learn it."
This is also what Qu Shu wanted to ask Huang Zhao: why, as a Heavenly Phoenix, would Huang Zhao choose the puppet technique of the Ancestral Phoenix?
Su Bai said, "Regardless of whether or not I inherited her puppetry skills, I understand your concerns. You can put those concerns aside. Our Heavenly Fox Clan is not easily shaken by a mere group of otherworldly evil thoughts, even if that group of otherworldly evil thoughts is as powerful as a hegemonic clan."
Qu Shu pondered for a moment: "If it's that cemetery..."
"The rest of Lin Zhao told me to tell you, and give them to her." This time, it was Jin Ya who answered Qu Shu.
Jin Ya said, "Lin Zhao said that the Heavenly Phoenix Bone Sword is gone, but she has a way to open the tomb. Then... the rest is up to you. She is giving you the opportunity, and you are responsible for the rest."
Qu Shu lowered his eyes, recalling the look in the woman's eyes when she last saw him, and understood something.
Lin Zhao, you...
I see myself clearly in both my past and present lives.
……
Lin Zhao swung his sword down on the enemy in front of him and asked Huang Yan beside him, "Can you still hold on?"
Although she could win against two opponents at once, such opportunities to train with high-level combatants were valuable training experiences for the young Heavenly Phoenixes of the Heavenly Phoenix Clan, and they were becoming increasingly rare. Therefore, Lin Zhao would only target the strongest opponent each time, leaving the other one for Huang Yan and Huang Yu to fight. She would occasionally offer some guidance but would never interfere in the battles between the two girls.
In just a few days, after experiencing a surge in her cultivation, Huang Yan and Huang Yu also accumulated combat experience at an astonishing rate.
Those watching from below the arena looked at the referee and organizers with dissatisfaction: "Is this the right way to treat a competition?"
The referee shrugged helplessly; "They didn't commit a foul."
To be honest, the referee was already quite confident in Lin Zhao.
In the past, geniuses of this caliber would feel ashamed of their early fame if they didn't injure a few people right away.
Even worse, some cultivators, driven mad by their cultivation, lost control and killed several. Lin Zhao was already among the most low-key of the young geniuses.
At least she always bows to the judges as a junior whenever she goes on stage.
In this respect, many young people who are not as capable as her cannot do it.
Therefore, in some minor, harmless matters, the referee was quite willing to tolerate Lin Zhao's little actions.
