Chapter 191 The Way to Break the Stalemate

It was the morning of the sixth day since Li Wei arrived in Pingyang City. He was discussing cultivation with Xie Youshan in his room when she suddenly fell silent.

"What's wrong, Shanshan?"

"A supreme cultivator has come looking for us."

Xie Youshan quickly transformed into a small dragon and slipped into Li Wei's sleeve.

Li Wei activated his Hundred Faces and Thousand Appearances technique, put on the mask, and then opened the door to look outside.

He saw a beautiful woman standing in the courtyard of his rented house, her expression somewhat gloomy.

"The Deer Fairy?" Li Wei asked tentatively.

He had given Zhu Yuan his address before, so it's not surprising that Lady Deer would come looking for him.

He wasn't worried that this lady would harm him, after all, he had the immortal Shan Shan by his side.

"You are Wei Haogu?" The beautiful woman looked at the masked man in front of her with some curiosity.

According to Zhu Yuan, this man was also a Supreme Cultivator, but in her memory, no Supreme Cultivator had the habit of wearing a mask.

Could it be a newly promoted Supreme Being?

But why is he so strong? Strong enough to easily save Zhuyuan from the clutches of the veteran Supreme Being, He Zhong.

The Deer Fairy asked herself if she could do the same thing, and the answer was no.

In other words, this Wei Haogu of unknown origin is stronger than her?

"That's right, I am Wei Haogu."

"Thank you for saving Zhu Yuan. We at Beixian Cave will remember this kindness."

"That's what the Deer Fairy said solemnly."

"There's no need to remember any favors. I saved him simply because I wanted to befriend Your Majesty. After all, I'm also quite interested in where Emperor Qi has gone."

Li Wei walked into the courtyard and spoke as he strolled.

"I don't know his exact whereabouts either," said the Deer Fairy, her expression sorrowful.

"Your Majesty, do not panic. The Emperor has great fortune, and I believe the Youchao clan would not dare to act recklessly."

Li Wei comforted her.

He wasn't talking nonsense. The ancient times were different from later times. At that time, the fate of the human race was almost entirely concentrated in the human emperor.

Ji Yuanhong betrayed the human race, which is why he lost the protection of destiny and was killed by Li Wei, the chosen one.

As long as Qi Hongjun doesn't do anything too wrong, the human race's fortune will continue to protect him.

Because Youchao's throne was obtained through abdication from Qi Hongjun, his imperial destiny was also inherited from Qi Hongjun.

If Youchao really killed Qi Hongjun, regardless of whether he did it himself, his human destiny would be completely dissipated, and his position as the Human Emperor would be unstable.

"That being said, we still need to find him as soon as possible to put our minds at ease."

The Deer Fairy sighed, then asked, "Brother Wei, do you have any way to find him?"

"Bloodline".

Li Wei said calmly.

Later generations of the Five Immortals Sect were able to use Gu worms to trace close relatives through bloodlines. Although the cultivators of ancient times had limited methods, the Queen Mother of the West, a visitor from the celestial realm, must have had a similar method.

After all, Li Wei still remembered the first time he saw the Queen Mother of the West, when she even began to investigate his karma.

Although the Queen Mother of the West gained nothing due to her special circumstances, her methods were real.

"Bloodline?" Lady Deer asked, somewhat puzzled.

"That's right, the closer the bloodline, the higher the success rate. Simply put, it requires the parents or children of Emperor Qi to act as a medium to perform the search."

"His parents had long since passed away, and his first generation of children—none of whom were highly accomplished in their cultivation—had also died."

The Deer Fairy shook her head.

Although Qi Hongjun was the emperor, he only had one wife besides her, Sanyi, and none of their children had any martial arts talent.

"No, there's one more," Li Wei said with a smile.

"You mean—Zhu'er?" The Deer Fairy realized, "Is it okay if he's a half-demon?"

"Of course, as long as you have a direct blood relationship with Emperor Qi, that's fine."

Upon hearing this, the Deer Fairy Goddess's expression turned somewhat mocking, "The son he hated the most has become his lifeline in the end."

"Your Highness, there is no time to lose. You should go find Prince Zhu as soon as possible. I will go and fetch some things needed to perform the magic. We will meet in the bamboo forest thirty miles west of the city in three days."

Li Wei planned.

He has already destroyed the sacrificial array of Pingyang City, so there shouldn't be any major problems.

In order to overthrow the Youchao clan with minimal losses, the previous emperor Qi Hongjun was also indispensable.

If Xie Youshan or even the Queen Mother of the West were to take action, they could certainly subdue the human race, but the losses would certainly be enormous.

Moreover, Li Wei needs a spirited and ambitious human race, not a servile and subservient one.

After discussing some details, the Deer Fairy took her leave.

Li Wei also packed his luggage, closed the courtyard gate, and left for the time being.

He had already asked Xie Youshan, but even she didn't know the bloodline-finding method that Li Wei wanted.

Left with no other choice, he had to return to Kunlun to seek guidance from his adoptive mother.

They still managed to leave the city undetected and fly directly towards Kunlun.

With Xie Youshan taking over, Li Wei returned to Kunlun after a day's flight.

He never expected that he would have to go home and ask his parents for help after only a week away from home.

I couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed.

Xie Youshan sensed the coordinates of the dream and knew that Zhong Kui Yaohua was still in the laboratory deep in Xuanpu.

The two then headed straight for Xuanpu.

"Brother, you're back!"

While cultivating, Third Qingwan noticed someone entering Xuanpu and suspected that Li Wei had returned.

After all, her stepmother hadn't left the lab in the past few days.

She stepped out of the courtyard and, sure enough, saw Li Wei walking towards the depths of Xuanpu.

He then excitedly shouted at Li Wei.

She had thought he would be gone for at least a month, but she didn't expect him to come back so soon.

"I ran into some trouble outside and had to ask my godmother for help," Li Wei explained.

"So, brother, you're leaving later?" Third Qingwan immediately put on a sad expression again.

"Yes, but that matter is already showing signs of progress and should be resolved soon."

Li Wei comforted her.

He discovered that his adopted sister's personality had changed drastically; she was a completely different person compared to her previous life.

This "third Qingwan" is practically a clingy version of Long Xiaoxiao.

Uh, no, Xiaoxiao isn't as old as her.

Although Zhao Yuqing/Third Qingwan/Zhong Kuiying are insignificant compared to the older sisters and aunts around Li Wei, they are quite remarkable compared to Xiaoxiao's flat chest.

Shaking off the strange thoughts in his mind, Li Wei patted the third Qingwan's head and comforted her for a long time. Finally, he promised to continue telling her stories every day after he returned, and only then did he get rid of this clingy adopted sister.

The main reason was that the Little Dragon Girl in his sleeve had already activated Death Coil three times; otherwise, he wouldn't mind continuing to entangle with the Third Qingwan and cultivate their relationship.

The laboratory of the Queen Mother of the West has a somewhat high-tech feel from the outside.

Metal, crystal windows, large single-level apartment.

"This was built and decorated by the Queen Mother of the West based on my suggestions," Xie Youshan said, crawling out of Li Wei's sleeve and resting on his shoulder.

Li Wei knew that this was probably Xie Youshan's suggestion based on his memory of the laboratory, and couldn't help but smile.

I never imagined I'd see such modern architecture in the ancient times of this world.
