Chapter 826 Overlap
Although Ji Qing still harbored some doubts about Lin Zhao's words, Lin Zhao's cooperation with her showed no intention of ending because of this unexpected incident. Therefore, whether or not the Lingxiao Sect Master ultimately possessed her son, the outcome made no difference to her.

After thinking for a moment, Ji Qing thanked Lin Zhao, saying, "If the Lingxiao Sect Master really has this intention, then I owe the young master even more for this favor..."

Lin Zhao waved his hand: "His target for possessing his son is me. In other words, even without my intervention, given the Lingxiao Sect Master's dissatisfaction with his son, you would have had the opportunity to kill him in the future. Now I ask you, if he really is possessed, will you still cooperate with me?"

Ji Qing was silent for a moment, then said firmly, "Cooperation."

Even if there's only a one in ten thousand chance that this beast can live, Ji Qing wouldn't be able to stand it.

“I can’t kill him. Even if the Lingxiao Sect Master doesn’t care about his son anymore, this beast can still live a life of luxury under my nose just because of the Lingxiao Sect. I’ve been lying low for many years and have put all my effort into securing my position in the Bihai Palace. Only then do I have the means to live well after killing him as long as I don’t get any leverage over him. I will never give up any opportunity.”

Ji Qing had a feeling that Lin Zhao was the only way for him to kill the young master of Lingxiao Sect and confirm his death.

Of course, if she becomes stronger in the future, she might have a chance to kill her enemies.

But how many years will this take?

A hundred years, or a thousand years?
She couldn't kill this good-for-nothing today. If he realized she was a threat and ran away, wouldn't she have to search everywhere for her enemy?
It would be better to kill this beast when he's at his most triumphant.

Ji Qing always believed that a gentleman's revenge is never too late, but she also believed that it's best to settle a grudge sooner rather than later.

Sensing the girl's resolve, Lin Zhao nodded: "Then leave this matter to me."

The young master of Lingxiao Sect is actually quite different from his father. The sect master is intelligent; his imprisonment and coercion are all for the purpose of making himself stronger. However, the young master of Lingxiao Sect is simply driven by his own desires.

Regardless, Lin Zhao never approves of such methods of harming innocent people to satisfy one's own desires.

After parting ways with Ji Qing and returning to the Heavenly Phoenix Clan, she unsurprisingly met the gazes of Su Bai and Qu Shu. Behind them, Jin Ya was eating something. Seeing Lin Zhao enter, she greeted her with a smile.

Lin Zhao couldn't help but return a smile, until she met the questioning look in Qu Shu's eyes.

Lin Zhao summoned the Phoenix Decree Sword: "Qu Shu, what do you think of this sword?"

The moment Qu Shu's gaze fell upon the Phoenix Decree Sword, her initial nonchalance quickly transformed into a storm of emotions: "It possesses the aura of the Ancestral Phoenix, but it's not the Heavenly Phoenix Bone Sword? This is the Heavenly Phoenix Bone Sword..."

Lin Zhao shook his head: "It is not the Heavenly Phoenix Bone Sword. I have already destroyed the physical form of the Heavenly Phoenix Bone Sword."

Qu Shu looked at Lin Zhao in shock.

Lin Zhao slowly told Qu Shu about her experiences in the Blue Duck Secret Realm.

After listening, Qu Shu stood silently in place: "No wonder you had His Majesty the Demon Ancestor and the Golden Crow tell me this. So, the Phoenix Decree Sword can replace the key?"

“Perhaps it’s not just about replacing the key,” Lin Zhao said. “I can open and close the tomb, and I can sense the layout within it, which is why they stopped you. You don’t need to go into a battle from which there is no return.”

Even if Qu Shu's cultivation level reached the Immortal Emperor level, he still couldn't be a match for a Heavenly Phoenix of the same level, unless they perished together.

In countless reincarnations, Qu Shu's hatred for Huang Zhao has overshadowed her desire to live, but this does not mean that Qu Shu does not want to live or become stronger.

He wanted to kill Huang Zhao, his ultimate goal being to take control of his own destiny and completely escape the shadows of Huang Zhao and Qing Xu. However, countless experiences and events told him that he was no match for Huang Zhao. In fact, at the very beginning, he couldn't even make a decision about his own body and marriage.

Even now, he is not entirely free. The freedom he craves can only be fully realized by killing Huang Zhao.

"In addition, your method of strengthening yourself is too extreme. I asked my master for some methods to strengthen the Heavenly Phoenix physique, but the strength of the soul can only rely on the inheritance of the Ancestral Phoenix."

This is a flaw that Zu Feng left for his descendants, and Lin Zhao cannot solve it.

"If it can improve my physique, it will also improve my potential..." Qu Shu pondered for a moment, then nodded: "Then, let's do it this way."

Lin Zhao breathed a sigh of relief.

Although she had anticipated Qu Shu's reaction, she couldn't help but feel relieved when Qu Shu actually nodded.

Fortunately, Qu Shu did not go to the most extreme point.

Regardless of Qu Shu's fate in previous reincarnations, she wouldn't stand idly by while she and Qu Shu spent time together in this reincarnation.

After finalizing the plans with Qu Shu, Lin Zhao and Su Bai walked together towards their courtyard.

Lin Zhao watched as Qu Shu stood alone at the courtyard gate like a dazed goose, seeing the two of them leave, and said, "You're such an awkward person. You're not planning to die now, so why don't you go find Lin Zhao?"

Qu Shu turned to look at her.

The renewed coldness in his eyes almost made Jin Ya's hair stand on end.
"My affairs are none of your business." Qu Shu tossed a copper coin high into the air, then caught it as it landed in his hand. After glancing at it, he shook his head. "I've done a fortune telling for you."

Jin Ya asked curiously, "You have this skill? What does my divination result mean?"

Qu Shu said, "This is a very bad omen."

Jin Ya: "..." She shouldn't have asked.

After driving Jin Ya away, Qu Shu looked at the copper coin in her palm, her eyes narrowing.

Even if the ending between him and Huang Zhao is rewritten, some things still cannot be changed.

Lin Zhao's husband will die.

As for who?

Su Bai, who is now in a relationship with Lin Zhao, is the last creator god. When the gods revive, he will be the first to fight on the front lines, and the probability of death is the highest when facing the gods.

Or is it Ning Wengui with purple eyes and a glassy body?
In fact, Qu Shu preferred Ning Wengui to the other two.

This purple-eyed glass body is truly bizarre. In a plane where fortune has run out, a god's body was born through unorthodox methods. The person with this body has a fragile mind, so isn't he the perfect vessel for a god?
Since the gods used his body as a vessel, the original owner could not escape death.

However, between Ning Wengui and herself, Qu Shu leaned more towards the idea that it was herself who should die.

Because when he got infinitely close to Zu Feng, his fate overlapped with Zu Feng's.
