Di Xin and Li Xuan were quite surprised to see Yunxiao's face turn pale and his body sway slightly.

Su Daji, watching from the side, could understand Yunxiao's feelings.

She was hesitating whether or not to speak up and explain for Yunxiao.

Yunxiao had come to her senses and composed herself, but the unease and doubt in her heart only intensified.

She couldn't help but press Li Xuan for answers.

"Young Master, the Jie Sect has many disciples and formidable strength. Even if they are targeted by other sects during the Investiture of the Gods, they shouldn't suffer the fate of having their lineage severed, right? This ending... is too cruel."

Yunxiao's tone was full of disbelief and disbelief.

Upon hearing this, even Emperor Xin nodded in agreement.

"Yes, Xuan'er, I, Wen Zhong, the Grand Tutor of the Great Shang Dynasty, am a disciple of the Jie Sect. I know all too well how powerful the Jie Sect is," Di Xin said earnestly. "Moreover, the disciples of the Jie Sect are extremely united and value loyalty. This..."

He glanced at Li Xuan, but was too embarrassed to continue.

to be frank.

If it weren't for Li Xuan saying this, he would have kicked the other person out as a liar spouting nonsense.

Li Xuan was not surprised by their reaction, smiled slightly, and continued to explain.

"That's exactly what they're taking advantage of," Li Xuan said with a hint of sarcasm. "They know that the Tongtian Sect Leader is a respectable man who values ​​rules. And his disciples, most of them, prioritize chivalry and loyalty over the laws and regulations. They know there are tigers in the mountains, yet they still choose to walk into the tiger's den."

Li Xuan paused, then emphasized his words.

"So they devised a plan to lure the disciples of the Jie Sect down the mountain one by one, and then defeat them one by one. Isn't this a classic case of 'the Calabash Brothers saving their grandfather'? They would send one away as soon as one came, and send two away as soon as two came. Step by step, they exhausted the foundation of the Jie Sect."

"Furthermore, the Jie Sect followed the rules throughout, emphasizing duels between peers. But the Chan Sect? They went straight in with their second-generation core fighters, playing the superior against the inferior. Isn't that bullying?"

"Holy crap? How shameless?!" Huang Feihu couldn't hold back any longer and cursed out loud in anger.

Yunxiao frowned even more deeply; she had realized the key point.

"Young Master, as far as I know, the Tongtian Sect Leader still has a trump card up his sleeve," Yunxiao said cautiously, without directly revealing it. "That method... even if the Four Saints joined forces, they might not be able to break it."

She looked at Li Xuan, her meaning clear: the sect leader has a trump card, he won't lose so badly.

Li Xuan cut to the chase: "Miss Xiaoyun, are you referring to the Ten Thousand Immortals Formation?"

Yunxiao was shocked once again.

She hadn't expected Li Xuanlian to know this!

"Young Master...you even know about the Myriad Immortals Formation?" Yunxiao's voice was a little tense, then a new doubt arose, "But...the Myriad Immortals Formation is so powerful, how could it have been defeated?"

Li Xuan calmly took a sip of water.

Even the strongest fortress can be breached from within.

He put down his cup, his tone calm, "No matter how powerful the Ten Thousand Immortals Formation is, the Tongtian Sect Leader couldn't set it up by himself. Why not just turn a few of his key subordinates against him?"

"You mean..." Di Xin gasped, "There's a traitor within the Jie Sect??"

The courtyard fell silent instantly upon hearing this.

Huang Feihu and Su Daji both stared wide-eyed.

Yunxiao was struck dumb, as if by lightning.

"Impossible!" Yunxiao retorted instinctively, his voice rising. "How could a traitor... possibly have access to the core of the Myriad Immortals Formation? The key points of the Myriad Immortals Formation are all personally overseen by our senior brother, Daoist Duobao, and other trusted disciples!"

Yunxiao thought this was absolutely impossible.

Upon hearing this, Li Xuan laughed even louder, with a hint of sarcasm.

"Duobao? Haha, and that long-eared rabbit spirit, Long-Eared Dingguang Immortal." Li Xuan directly named them, "Those two are the biggest traitors!"

"What?!"

"Duobao?!"

Yunxiao, Dixin, and Huang Feihu exclaimed in surprise at the same time, completely stunned.

Daoist Duobao was the chief disciple of the Jie Sect! His status was extremely high! How could he betray them?

Yunxiao's mind was in complete chaos; he couldn't accept this explanation at all.

"Impossible! Absolutely impossible!" Yunxiao shook his head repeatedly, his face filled with bewilderment and resistance. "That's the senior brother of the Jie Sect... how could he..."

Li Xuan's smile faded, and his tone became more serious.

"Why is it impossible?" he countered. "Daoist Duobao himself has profound roots; he is a top-tier innate deity, on par with the Twelve Golden Immortals of the Chan Sect. Deep down, he actually agrees with the Chan Sect's 'orthodox' view."

"The Tongtian Sect Leader adhered to the principle of 'education for all, and all things can turn to the Dao,' and he took in many demons and other beings as disciples. In Duobao's eyes, this was 'heretical and unorthodox.' He looked down on these fellow disciples to the core."

Li Xuan paused for a moment, then threw out the most fatal point.

"Moreover, and most importantly, he can never become a saint within the Jie Sect. Below the level of a saint, all are mere ants! Duobao understands this principle better than anyone. If he wants to become a saint, he must find another way."

Yunxiao froze on the spot, feeling as if he had been hit by an invisible giant hammer, completely stunned.

She felt as if a thick black fog had enveloped her, the situation was so dark and deep that it was hard to breathe.

Want to break out of this impasse? You can't even find the door.

She stood there, helpless like a lost child.

He came over carrying a small plate with a few juicy green plums on it.

"It's nothing valuable, it just grew on our own tree. Miss Xiaoyun, please don't be offended, have a taste." Li Xuan invited, handing the plate to everyone.

Yunxiao looked at those few plums and his heart trembled.

The Yellow Plum, one of the ten innate spiritual roots, isn't something valuable?!

She felt speechless for a moment.

Li Xuan's skill level is incredibly high.

Yunxiao quickly thanked him, picked up a yellow plum, and carefully took a bite.

The moment the fruit entered her stomach, an unimaginably pure spiritual energy exploded forth, surging throughout her limbs and bones. Her cultivation level actually began to loosen, showing a faint upward trend!

What shocked her even more was that some of the originally obscure and difficult-to-understand insights into the Great Dao had become clearer at this moment!

"This..." Yunxiao was completely stunned; the effect was simply too incredible. She stared incredulously at the remaining half of the plum in her hand, "A congenital spiritual root, terrifyingly powerful?"

She subconsciously looked at the seemingly ordinary courtyard again.

Upon closer inspection, her heart was filled with even greater astonishment. The aura of Dao principles permeating the air was so dense that it was almost impenetrable, and every wisp contained indescribable mysteries.

This is no ordinary courtyard. The profound Daoist essence contained here is even more astonishing than the secluded cultivation ground of her master, the Sage Tongtian, on Jin'ao Island!

"Just who is this young master?" Yunxiao felt only deep awe and shock.

After a moment of reflection, Yunxiao suddenly snapped back to reality.

Wait a minute! Weren't all those shocking secrets about the destruction of the Jie Sect and the traitors revealed by Li Xuan himself?

He not only knows the past, but also seems to know exactly what will happen in the future!

Then...does he also know how to break the deadlock? How to save the Jie Sect?!

Yunxiao's eyes instantly lit up dramatically, like two bright lamps lit in the darkness. She stared intently at Li Xuan, her voice carrying a barely perceptible urgency: (The latest update of the novel "Primordial Era: Mistakenly Taking Emperor Xin as Father, Starting as a Useless Nuwa")

"Young Master! Since you possess the insight to understand the secrets of heaven and know of the future calamities, then... how should the Jie Sect break free from this predicament? Please enlighten us, Young Master!"

Li Xuan was pondering the food in the pot when he heard this. Without even looking up, he casually replied, "Break the deadlock? Simple, just eight words: 'To repel external aggression, one must first pacify internal strife.'"

He put down what he was holding and gestured, "Either we drag out the rats in the house and clean it up, or we can be more decisive and shut the entire Jie Sect down, completely sealing off the mountain, and no one should come down the mountain to get involved in this mess."

He paused, then added, "Or, we could go all out, completely align ourselves with the major merchants, and pull off a big heist! A gamble on a huge win or loss."

Yunxiao was deeply shaken, seemingly understanding but not quite. Cleansing the sect, seclusion in the mountains, joining forces with a powerful merchant... each of these paths was extraordinary.

She wanted to ask for more details: "Young master, how exactly should it be done...?"

Before he could finish speaking, Li Xuan suddenly sniffed, his expression changing drastically: "Oh no! It's burnt!"

He dropped what he was saying and rushed to the kitchen: "You guys keep chatting, my food's burnt, I have to go check on it right away!"

Yunxiao opened her mouth, but the words stuck in her throat. Watching Li Xuan's figure disappear through the kitchen doorway, she felt a mixture of anticipation and disappointment.

What was hopeful was that there seemed to be a way to break the deadlock; what was frustrating was that the young master seemed truly unwilling to say any more.

She turned to look at Di Xin and Huang Feihu, only to find that the two of them were not flustered at all. Instead, they were sneaking around in the corner of the courtyard, as if they were looking for something.

This piqued her curiosity. Others might not know, but she was well aware of Di Xin's true identity. Wasn't this Emperor here today precisely to resolve the current predicament of the Shang Dynasty?

I just asked about the general direction of "becoming a god," but the specific implementation is still nowhere in sight. How come these two are acting like nothing's wrong and not in a hurry at all?

Di Xin caught a glimpse of Yunxiao's puzzled expression out of the corner of his eye, chuckled, and smugly smiled:

"Don't worry, Miss Xiaoyun. My precious son is all talk and no action. He says he won't help, but he won't actually lend a hand. However, he's certainly given us plenty of benefits behind the scenes."

As he spoke, he searched the corner of the wall even more diligently.

"Secret assistance?" Yunxiao was even more bewildered. What kind of secret assistance could this place offer besides its rich Daoist atmosphere?

Just then, Huang Feihu, who was standing nearby, let out a low, suppressed exclamation:

"Found it! The treasure left behind by Young Master Xuan has been found!"

Upon hearing this, Di Xin was overjoyed and immediately went over to him.

Yunxiao couldn't contain his curiosity either, and leaned closer to take a look. He saw that the two of them were each holding a thin book.

One book is titled "Dragon Talisman: The Legend of the Heavenly Talisman Emperor" on its cover, while the other is titled "The Legend of the Ruthless Man: A Short Story of Covering the Sky".

Di Xin rubbed his hands together excitedly, as if he were holding a rare treasure.

Yunxiao was even more confused. It's just two books, what's there to get so excited about?

Di Xin seemed to see through her doubts and smiled mysteriously: "Not at all. As the saying goes, 'Books hold houses of gold, books hold beauties like jade!' What Xuan'er left behind is no ordinary item!"

Upon seeing this, Di Xin was immediately captivated, completely immersed in it.

Even more miraculously, as he read, a faint golden aura of humanity surged and rose around him, and his aura seemed to become more condensed and profound.

Yunxiao was secretly alarmed.

What book is so amazing?

Is it possible for the Human Emperor to stir up the destiny of humanity just by glancing at him a few times?

She couldn't resist her curiosity and wanted to get closer to see the book in Di Xin's hand.

But as soon as she got close, she felt a gentle yet incredibly strong force push her away, preventing her from getting within three feet of Di Xin.

"This..." Yunxiao found it unbelievable.

The Emperor was reading a book when such a strange phenomenon and protection occurred?

Her gaze involuntarily turned to the book "The Legend of the Ruthless Man" in Huang Feihu's hand.

Huang Feihu was frowning, trying to open the book, but he couldn't turn the pages no matter what he tried. He tried several times, then sighed helplessly, seemingly giving up.

Just then, he looked up and met Yunxiao's curious gaze.

After a moment's thought, Huang Feihu actually handed the book that couldn't be opened to Yunxiao.

"Miss Xiaoyun, here you go." Huang Feihu readily agreed. "I can't open this book, so it seems it's not my destiny. Besides, I just ate the immortal fruit that you gave me, young master, which is already a great fortune. It's perfect for me to focus on my cultivation." After saying that, he sat down cross-legged, closed his eyes, and began to circulate the Heavenly Stele Profound Technique.

Yunxiao was somewhat surprised, but still respectfully accepted the book: "Thank you."

She looked down at the seemingly ordinary book in her hand; the three words "The Tale of Ruthless People" on the cover carried an indescribable meaning.

She took a deep breath, and with a mixture of curiosity and tentative curiosity, gently turned to the first page.

With just a few lines of text, an indescribable grandeur and a solitary atmosphere immediately overwhelmed Yunxiao's mind.

"Not for immortality, but only to wait for your return in the mortal world..."

As she murmured those words, she felt an indescribable shock and sorrow strike deep into her soul.

Before she knew it, she had been completely captivated by the story of the brilliant, ruthless emperor in the book, who was obsessed with the heavens. She was completely engrossed in the story and read it with great enthusiasm.

The empress's extraordinary talent, her ruthless and persistent spirit that defied the heavens, deeply moved her.

Yunxiao admired him more and more as he looked at him.

"What a ruthless emperor!"

Yunxiao couldn't help but admire him in his heart, "A mere mortal, yet with immense perseverance, courage, and ambition, he reached the pinnacle, becoming an emperor and ancestor! This ability truly deserves the title of 'Great Emperor'!"

She closed the book, but the story still lingered in her mind.

Yunxiao couldn't help but connect the experiences of the Ruthless Great Emperor with his own current predicament.

The Jie Sect is in imminent danger, and its future is bleak.

Are we just supposed to stand by and do nothing?

The story of the Ruthless Great Emperor was like a lightning bolt, cleaving through the fog in her heart.

She suddenly realized the profound meaning behind Li Xuan leaving behind this book.

"The young master left this book for me to read so that he could tell me that fate is not immutable!"

"If the Ruthless Great Emperor could defy fate and attain enlightenment with a mortal body, why can't I, Yunxiao, single-handedly reverse the fate of the Jie Sect?!"

The more she thought about it, the more it seemed to make sense. This must be Li Xuan's intention!

He was using this method to awaken himself and give himself strength!

"That's right! That's exactly it!"

Yunxiao silently encouraged herself, a powerful belief taking root in her heart. She couldn't sit idly by and wait for death; she had to fight for a way out for the Jie Sect!

Just as her belief was unwavering and she was determined to change everything, a sudden change occurred!

An indescribable, profound aura suddenly surged from the depths of her body without warning.

This aura is ancient and profound, as if it contains the most fundamental principles of the universe.

Yunxiao was stunned for a moment.

She clearly felt that a profound and unfathomable ancient scripture had appeared out of nowhere in her mind!

This scripture was incredibly profound; every word seemed to be formed from the laws of the Great Dao, radiating an indescribable Daoist charm. It was so abruptly imprinted on the depths of her soul, as if it had always belonged to her.

"This...this is..."
