Chapter 835 Qingxu
Upon hearing this, Huang Yan and Huang Yu understood Lin Zhao's idea: "Shall we also go to the Spirit Gathering Array to cultivate?"
Lin Zhao nodded: "That's natural, but once your internal immortal energy is saturated, you should come out and go to the ancient battlefield to accept missions. If you're tired or sleepy..."
Lin Zhao rummaged in his spatial ring: "This is a Qi Gathering Pill, which can help you cultivate while meditating."
Huang Yanhuang Yu: "..."
Noticing the complicated looks on the faces of those around him, Lin Zhao asked, "What's wrong?"
Huang Qing asked, "Young Master, have you been like this since you started cultivating, never taking a moment's rest?"
Jin Ya raised her hand: "Lin Zhao will still rest on certain days, but once she sets off, she will continue to cultivate her skills even when she is resting."
Huang Yan took a deep breath: "I finally understand what the Grand Elder meant. There are no geniuses. I just used the time others spent reading novels on cultivation."
They used to admire Lin Zhao's extraordinary talent, but now, seeing Lin Zhao's ascetic life, their envy has diminished considerably.
Lin Zhao understood what they meant, smiled helplessly, and tossed the pills to them.
"Stop joking with me, I'm going back to send you to my secret realm."
Huang Yu caught the key point: "Isn't Young Master going to cultivate with us?"
Lin Zhao nodded: "I have my own things to take care of."
As for Qu Shu, since I've made a promise to him, I need to fulfill it as soon as possible.
She could tell that Qu Shu had been itching to do it for a long time.
Especially the central area...
Lin Zhao wasn't sure if his idea was right. If it was, then there must be a mortal enemy of Qu Shu in the central domain, someone Qu Shu wanted to beat to a pulp.
Lin Zhao silently lit a candle for that guy in his heart, and then decided to go find Qingxu first.
The one who tied the knot must untie it. Lin Zhao's knowledge of Qu Shu's parents' affairs is all speculation; she needs to find out the specifics.
But before asking for clarification, Lin Zhao thought for a moment and decided to ask Qu Shule if she was willing.
After communicating with Qu Shu, Qu Shu's opinion was, "Do as you please."
Lin Zhao found Qingxu quite casually.
Unexpectedly, Qingxu's reaction upon seeing her was to immediately kneel down.
Lin Zhao quickly lifted the person up.
"Uncle Qingxu, you're really too kind of me."
Qingxu's eyelashes trembled. He had been imprisoned for too long, so although he knew about the decline of the Heavenly Phoenix Clan, he didn't know the extent of its decline.
Moreover, in Qingxu's eyes, no matter how much the Heavenly Phoenix Clan declined, it was still an existence she could not reach. This was true when Huang Zhao was alive, and it was even more so when Lin Zhao came out.
After all, even back then, Huang Zhao didn't possess Lin Zhao's talent and cultivation. This gave Qing Xu the illusion that the Heavenly Phoenix Clan was even stronger than before.
He treated Huang Zhao with the utmost respect and reverence, even though she had been imprisoned for so many years because of him, and he dared not utter a single complaint. How much less would he treat Lin Zhao?
"Young Master Lin, are you here to ask me about my relationship with Lady Huang Zhao?"
Now that the matter has been exposed, Qingxu no longer dares to call Huangzhao by her full name or refer to her as Qu Shu's mother in front of outsiders.
The phrase "Lord Huang Zhao" clearly shows how he positions himself.
Lin Zhao looked at him, unable to describe her feelings.
"Haven't you thought about seeing your wife again?" Qingxu replied, "Lord Huangzhao will always be Lord Huangzhao, not my wife."
Lin Zhao understood.
This celestial beast understands everything, but it is not without selfish motives.
He had a kind of obsessive, humble, and even twisted love for Huang Zhao. This love made some of his behaviors seem very unbelievable. He didn't care about his own freedom and life, nor did he care about his son's future and dignity. He only cared about whether he and Huang Zhao had a destiny together.
While he may be considered the ultimate romantic, he wasn't entirely without his own selfish motives, nor was he entirely acting out of consideration for Huang Zhao.
If he truly cared about Huang Zhao, he shouldn't have been with her.
However, while this selfish motive is theoretically wrong, Lin Zhao said that it is not incomprehensible from an emotional perspective.
With such complicated feelings, Lin Zhao said, "Qu Shu has already understood everything. He and his mother are bound to fight. My stopping Qu Shu from killing you is not a capital offense, but it does not mean that your actions over the years have not harmed Qu Shu."
Qingxu lowered his head. Although Lin Zhao was of a higher generation and called him "uncle," he acted like a servile servant in front of Lin Zhao.
Lin Zhao knew it wouldn't work: "Would you resent Qu Shu because of Huang Zhao's death?"
Qingxu shook her head: "From the moment we parted, I knew that Lady Huangzhao was alive, so I also wanted to live to see her. But Qu Shu wanted to kill Lady Huangzhao. I know about our child. Lady Huangzhao has turned to evil thoughts in another world, right?"
Lin Zhao looked at him in surprise.
She always believed that Qu Shu's intelligence and methods stemmed from Huang Zhao's genes.
However, upon closer reflection, if Qingxu truly had no merits, she wouldn't have been chosen by Huangzhao.
Qingxu kept his head down and did not notice the change in Lin Zhao's expression, but he could sense the answer from Lin Zhao's silence.
In fact, he had long suspected that Lord Huangzhao had made a choice, and he also had some sense of the situation of the Heavenly Phoenix Clan at that time.
However, he was selfish and could only think of himself. So even though he knew that Huang Zhao was arrogant, conceited, and unrealistic, he was still willing to give up everything for her.
He knew that eloping with Huang Zhao would most likely result in a disastrous defeat, regardless of Huang Zhao or his bloodline, but solely due to Huang Zhao's own stubbornness and arrogance.
Huang Zhao's talent may far surpass that of the Heavenly Phoenixes of her time or even some ancient dragons, but she is definitely not among the top ten true prodigies of her era, let alone compared with the prodigies of ancient times or even the distant past.
Not to mention that even the ancient Heavenly Phoenix could not guarantee that it could produce a purebred Heavenly Phoenix by mating with other divine beasts.
Both he and Huang Zhao were gambling.
Huang Zhao's gamble might have a sliver of a chance of winning, but Qing Xu knew that her gamble had absolutely no chance of winning.
If Huang Zhao truly gives birth to a pure-blooded Heavenly Phoenix, he will become a stepping stone for Huang Zhao's achievements. He may be forgotten by Huang Zhao, or he may be killed by Huang Zhao's suitors. If Huang Zhao fails, he will bear all the infamy.
Regardless of the outcome, they will face utter ruin.
He always wanted to take a gamble for himself, even if it meant being shattered to pieces.
Now that the guess has been confirmed, Qingxu feels a sense of relief.
“If Lady Huangzhao is not here, I will go with her, but I have no face to blame Xiaoshu.”
A pitiful and tragic child born from his mother's ambition and his father's paranoia.
Lin Zhao said "Oh," and replied, "Whatever you want, as long as you don't die at Qu Shu's hands."
Cultivators do indeed have weaker family ties, but patricide will still incur some karmic consequences, of course...
Killing one's mother is also an example.
Huang Zhao and Qing Xu have a happy ending, but how can the deaths of both not count as a happy ending?
