The old man was very pleased to see the boy so obedient.

"Okay, so what kind of research topic would you like to study next?"

"I want to continue my research on Celestus," the boy said without hesitation.

"?" The old man asked in surprise.

"Continue the study of the soul?"

"But you know, Shuting already knows his thoughts inside and out, so even if we dig deeper, it will probably be in vain..."

Every project has an end, just like chopsticks.

Even though chopsticks can be made of many different materials and styled in new ways, chopsticks are still chopsticks...

Humans only need it to be able to pick up food, that's enough.

Further investigation is completely pointless.

"No, teacher." The boy clenched his fist.

"After a fleeting glimpse through the fog of death, I finally understood a truth."

"Throughout history, our understanding of the soul is only the tip of the iceberg."

"I lost an eye, but my vision is clearer than ever before..."

"The truth is in my hands... Watch how I turn this illogical world upside down!"

Gazing at the images of that summer's childhood on the big screen, Sersis sighed:

"Oh... such a secret is hidden under your heavy eye patch."

"However, this story is not exactly related to what you're planning... it's completely unrelated, isn't it?"

“Even the soul vessel that you seized has been destroyed by you.”

"At the time, I thought you wanted to use it to contain your own soul..."

"Hmph, the answer lies within." Xia glanced at the frozen screen and said in a deep voice:

"If you can't even figure this out, you might as well hand over the authority of [reason] to me; keeping it is just a waste."

"That's the end of my story. Now it's time to tell you your secret."

"It's about equivalent exchange...right?"

Upon hearing this, Serhis smiled faintly:

"As expected, they set a trap for me..."

"Unfortunately... even if I were to recount my past, I might not know more than you do."

"Oh?" Xia raised an eyebrow at that moment.

"The renowned Titan of Reason admits his lack of wisdom; you believers are in for a disappointment."

"No, no, no..." Yan Huan took out the remote control, turned off the projection of that Xia's memory, and looked at Cecis.

"I just want to hear about you and Meneta. I'm really curious."

"If nothing unexpected happens, you two are lesbians, right?"

“Son of man…you actually care about such things?” Sersis looked at Yan, who was standing beside Xia, and said helplessly.

“If I remember correctly, Meneta has already handed over power to that Aglaia…”

“Yes,” Yan Huan nodded, “but I really don’t see any connection between her and romance at all.”

"Could it be... that she was also love-obsessed before?"

“That makes sense,” Serhith pondered.

"At the very least, if you want to inherit power, you have to be involved in something..."

"Perhaps many people secretly admire Aglaia, who knows?"

“But here’s the problem,” Yan Huan asked Cecis.

"Logically speaking, every Golden Descendant will have flaws."

"Aglaia's flaw is the constant loss of humanity."

"But now that I've inherited [time], it seems there are no side effects at all."

"Do you think it's because Meneta was hurt so deeply by you that she deliberately wanted future generations to be devoid of emotion?"

"Hmm?" Serhith asked, puzzled.

"Where did you hear this story from?"

"If I were truly as heartless as the rumors say, how could you and that little princess have found the [Golden Branch Oath] in my territory..."

"Then... tell me in detail?" Yan Huan pricked up her ears.

"You're really asking about other people's private affairs all the time... You've got too much free time on your hands..."

"What could I possibly be busy with?" Yan Huan scratched her head and looked at Serhis.

"I'm not a member of the Golden Clan, so I can just wait for the Citizens' Assembly to convene."

"So, you two actually joined Katniss's team?"

"I don't know." Sersis shrugged, looking helplessly at Naksha.

"This child is confident that his wisdom is unparalleled throughout history, and even the Titans cannot catch his eye... We can only take it one step at a time."

"..." Xia glanced at Yan Huan at that moment.

"So, why can you also see this verbose Titan?"

"Maybe I have good eyesight."

Yan Huan glanced at the two of them and said goodbye:

"I'm not going to waste any more time with you guys. Now that the boundary anchoring is done, I'm going back to have a meeting with Dan Heng and the others."

"My intuition tells me that something is still wrong with this Onfaros."

Watching Yan Huan leave, Serhis smiled faintly.

"Now look what's happened. Your conversation with him was all over the place, and the guards who were secretly watching you watched it."

"Presumably, Katniss will come to question you later."

"So what? Just answer the truth." Xia said expressionlessly at that moment.

"But you're the one who insisted on asking me to answer your nonsensical questions."

"Hehe...the onlooker sees most of the game." Serhis chuckled.

At the same time, the guards arrived at the two of them as expected.

"At that moment, Lord Xia—!"

"By order of Lord Legus, I have come to report: Lady Katniss has arrived at the Senate and awaits your arrival. Please proceed immediately."

"Hmph, got it..."

As they traveled, the scholars passing by on both sides couldn't help but look at that moment and whisper among themselves.

"Isn't that the Earth Beast dressed in fine clothes? Is it here in the Senate to eat the royal food?"

Their eyes were filled with disdain.

"They really do bend whichever way the wind blows..."

"Hilarious. The only survivor of Tree Garden, I wonder what kind of shady means he used to survive."

"I've seen plenty of people like this. They pretend to be so high and mighty, but in reality, they're more cunning than anyone else!"

"Those who know, know, hahaha."

Cecis looked around and couldn't help but tease Naksha: "The sons of man here are so energetic, what do you think?"

"Hmph, noisy."

Xia ignored the foul language and followed the guards forward.

It wasn't just these prominent scholars; some citizens who supported the fire-chasing faction also hurled insults at them.

"Betrayal of trust, shameless!"

"Do you deserve the golden blood that flows in your veins?!"

"Give me back Lord Tian... It's all your fault, you despicable man!"

The deeper you go, the higher the status of the people standing on both sides of the road becomes.

Their gazes grew increasingly profound.

"Embedocles's student? I've heard his views are completely opposite to those of the [Worship School]..."

"Scholars are like this: differences lead to clashes, and clashes lead to progress."

"But in my opinion, there are only correct viewpoints and incorrect viewpoints; the two cannot coexist."

Serhith looked at the councilors.

"It seems that the reason why the sons of man fight each other is because of the black and white dichotomy."

"It's pointless." Xia's steps did not stop at that moment.

Eventually, he was taken to a corner.

Katniss stood in front, her eyes filled with disdain:

"The leader of the Divine Enlightenment Tree Court [School of Wisdom], the infamous [Bleacher], a golden descendant possessing the Seed of Sersis, and a survivor of the Tree Court massacre..."

"I wonder if there are any omissions? Please point them out."

Xia's gaze was calm at that moment:
