I will teach you how to cultivate immortality

Chapter 345 You Didn't Ask (13)

Feilai Peak, near the waterfall and pool at its foot.

This place was originally a meditation retreat used by Li Boyang.

However, with the passage of time and the reconstruction of Feilai Peak, he has not been here for a long time.

Most of the time, it was Li Jingshu or Xi Luo who meditated and cultivated themselves under the waterfall.

In a sense, this can be considered one of the few forbidden areas after the reconstruction of Feilai Peak.

Apart from the human-faced fish that have received special permission from Li Boyang to freely enter and exit the area.

Even the ghosts and gods who come to listen to Li Boyang's sermons will never set foot here.

"I'm afraid Wu Xian and the others never dreamed that you would leave Kunwu in such a conspicuous place."

Quietly lying on Li Boyang's head, Xi Luo wagged her tail and teased him.

"Isn't this what you often call 'the darkest place under the lamp'?"

Li Boyang rolled his eyes deftly and retorted irritably.

“It’s not like I forced Kunwu to stay here; He just likes the quiet environment here.”

"Moreover, in terms of safety alone, this place is second only to the mountain god temple."

After their usual bickering, Li Boyang looked at the seemingly calm pool of water.

"Kunwu, don't you have anything to say to us?"

Before Li Boyang finished speaking, the calm lake surface suddenly rippled.

The next second, a faint golden light separated the pool and the waterfall, revealing Kunwu hidden within.

At this moment, Kunwu still maintains his totem god form as a pillar reaching to the heavens.

What do you want to know?

Just like when they first met, Kunwu's voice sounded unusually calm.

"For example, when did you find out that you were the Dinghai Ding (a type of ancient Chinese cauldron)?"

This time, it wasn't Li Boyang who asked the question, but Xi Luo who was standing next to him.

When she asked this question, Xi Luo's expression was unusually complicated, even revealing a hint of barely perceptible expectation.

For Xi Luo, Kunwu is the Dinghai Ding left behind by her sister, which is completely different from the fact that the other party is just a totem god.

The former means that Xi Luo is not alone; her perseverance over the past thousand years has been witnessed by others.

"I knew it from the very beginning."

A huge face slowly emerged from the surface of the pillar, and Kunwu said in a low voice, his expression somewhat wooden.

If Xiluo is the visible guardian of Feilai Peak...

Therefore, Kunwu was clearly a guardian secretly arranged by the Huaijiang witch.

"I see. I knew your defection from Yu Shi was very unusual."

"Then the Rain Master could say that he was inspired by the Witch of Huaijiang and was grateful to her, so he decided to help Xiluo protect Feilai Peak."

"how about you?"

"As a totem god, being imprisoned on Feilai Peak simply because of disagreements with the Huaijiang witch's beliefs is a rather hasty reason."

"More importantly, the fact that you were willing to defect under these circumstances goes beyond just being magnanimous."

Li Boyang paused slightly at this point.

"Since you knew from the beginning that you were the Dinghai Ding (Sea-Stabilizing Cauldron), why didn't you tell us your identity?"

In fact, this was also the point that puzzled Li Boyang the most after he learned the truth.

"Because you've never asked me."

His calm voice revealed Kunwu's consistent composure.

As expected, Kunwu's answer left Li Boyang and Xiluo stunned, unable to recover for a long time.

So you mean...it's all our fault?

I don't know if it was just Li Boyang's imagination.

He sensed a hint of gritted teeth in Xi Luo's words.

"The Rain Master asked, so I answered..."

Sensing a hint of danger in Xi Luo's words, Kunwu finally stopped being so taciturn this time.

However, to Xi Luo, these words only added fuel to the fire. "Hey, Xi Luo, don't forget why we're here!"

Li Boyang quickly pressed Xi Luo down on his head and gestured to Kunwu with his eyes to stop talking.

Fortunately, Kunwu finally had some sense this time and didn't say anything that would offend Xiluo.

"Alright! Let's get back to the main topic!"

"You saw the battle, right? You should also know their purpose for coming here!"

Although the sentence was in the form of a question, Li Boyang spoke it in an affirmative tone.

In fact, Kunwu did not appear to participate in the battle last night.

Li Boyang roughly guessed that the other party must already know the purpose of Wu Xian and the other two.

"Yes, I know, they plan to take me back to Great Xia."

As Li Boyang had expected, Kunwu spoke frankly without any attempt to hide anything.

"Actually, I had a premonition of their arrival after 'Wu Yi Shoots the Sky'."

“I am the only one among the Nine Cauldrons who did not respond to Wu Yi. The gods and great shamans of the Great Xia Dynasty would never ignore such a matter.”

"What I didn't expect was that they would arrive so late."

Nodding in understanding, Li Boyang continued to ask.

"Do you know why they came looking for you this time?"

This time, Kunwu blinked in confusion, clearly unaware of the true purpose of Wu Xian and the other two's trip.

"There's a problem in the East China Sea; they need you to stop the flooding there."

Upon hearing this, Kunwu immediately understood the intentions behind Li Boyang and Xiluo's trip.

The Great Xia has never been the kind of power that would give up easily, and Kunwu was mentally prepared for this from the moment he was born.

"I would like to..."

Before Kunwu could finish speaking, Xiluo, who was already furious, immediately reprimanded him.

"Who asked you to agree?"

Do you think we're that kind of people?

"Or do you think you can come back after you go?"

"What they need is the Dinghai Ding (a type of ancient Chinese cauldron), not your Kunwu!"

"Besides, isn't it just going to war with the Great Xia? Haven't we experienced enough battles along the way?"

"Don't think too highly of yourself. Even without you, we will have to fight against Great Xia sooner or later!"

Without giving Kunwu a chance to refute, Xi Luo roared, baring her teeth.

"We're here to inform you that you're imprisoned again starting today!"

"Without my permission, you will not leave Feilai Peak... no, you will not leave this pool even a step!"

"Binding God Rope, can you hear my voice?"

"From now on, you keep a close eye on Kunwu and make sure he doesn't leave this place even for a moment!"

When Xi Luo looked up at the sky and let out a long howl, her voice could be heard throughout most of Feilai Peak.

So almost without any surprise, the Feilai Peak once again shone with light, and the main body of the [Binding God Rope] immediately flew out from the crack in the mountain.

hold head high!
It roared silently, like a dragon.

The "Binding God Rope" demonstrates one's will through action.

"Baby, you won't object to my decision, will you?"

With a slightly menacing expression, Xi Luo lowered her head. It was less of a discussion with Li Boyang and more of a threat to intimidate him.

Because at present, only Li Boyang has the courage and ability to oppose Xi Luo at Feilai Peak.

"Ahem, since you've put it that way, how could I possibly object?"

Upon hearing this, Li Boyang gave an awkward grin.

Seeing Xi Luo's furious outburst, he certainly couldn't voice any objections at this moment.

Rather, Li Boyang had anticipated this and was not at all surprised by Xi Luo's attempt to exploit the situation.
