Question, Understand, Become a Holy Lord

"Okay." I swear to God, Bai Hen really didn't plan to do anything this time. At most, he would just step down to find the location of the snake talisman. He didn't plan to attack the snake talisman in the short term. His father was so wary of him. It really shows that the world is going downhill and people's hearts are no longer as they used to be.

"How about leaving the guide matter to me?" Xiaoyu poked her head out from behind the door and looked at her father with a smile.

"Xiao Yu, you...I'll leave it to you then." Looking at Xiao Yu's expression, the old man knew that she was eavesdropping behind the door again. However, what they had just discussed was basically common sense to the people in this base, and there was nothing worth keeping secret.

Moreover, compared to Jackie Chan's stupid nephew, it might be safer to let the clever Xiaoyu lead the way.

Chapter 71 White Questions and Answers

"Xiaoyu, how old are you now? How is your study? Which middle school are you planning to go to? Are you in a premature love relationship? Is Jackie Chan still not letting you do this or that?" After closing the door, Bai Hen couldn't wait to express his sincere concern to Xiaoyu.

"...Are you some distant aunt of mine?" Xiaoyu's originally happy face fell in an instant, and she complained weakly.

"I'm telling you all this for your own good. If you don't study hard, you'll only be able to work as an agent in District 13 in the future. You've been here for so long and you still don't know what the agents in District 13 are paid. You work overtime when you need to and you find things to do when you don't. It's called flexible working hours, but in fact you're on call at any time. The benefits and salary are just okay. Sheriff Black is still a good boss. If he's gone one day, you might be facing a bald black man with an eye patch who likes to embezzle funds, doesn't know how to judge people, and takes advantage of his subordinates. Maybe the only thing worth praising is that the funeral expenses are relatively high?"

Bai Hen admonished Xiaoyu earnestly.

"...I now know why the Holy Lord is so cruel to you." Xiaoyu suddenly regretted jumping out to take on this task. Originally, she just wanted to get to know the former Prime Minister of the Undead Empire and see if she could dig out any secrets from him, but now she felt her defenses were broken before she even started.

What's even more bizarre is that based on her understanding of America, what Bai Hen said is very likely to happen. Xiaoyu has even imagined herself resisting stress in the future.

"No, you are kidding me. I will be the sheriff of District 13 in the future!" Xiaoyu felt for the first time that Bai Hen was really dangerous. If she had not seen her future grown-up self, she would have almost believed Bai Hen's lies.

"How do you know? Did your future self tell you? After Sheriff Blake retired, did he directly push you to the position of sheriff? It's good to have connections." Bai Hen decided to press on as his bait was initially effective.

"Nonsense, I became the sheriff by my own ability! Although I may have had some help from Sheriff Blake..." Xiaoyu felt that it was not realistic for her future self to become the sheriff at such a young age purely on his own.

"Really? Then there should be a lot of people who are dissatisfied with your position as the future sheriff. Are there a lot of people who don't listen to orders and pretend to obey but actually disobey? A few years ago, you, the sheriff, had to personally go out on field missions. Have you seen how many times Sheriff Black has personally done it? It's all District 13 who takes the credit, and when he goes out occasionally, it's almost like he's on vacation."

These were just nonsense made up by Bai Hen. Although Bai Hen didn't remember the plot about Sheriff Blake very clearly, he was still able to sit firmly on the position of sheriff despite so many incidents in District 13. His background must be extraordinary. Not to mention that the credit for Jackie Chan and others' actions basically went to Blake. With Blake's support, Xiaoyu would definitely be able to sit firmly on the position of sheriff. It should be that Xiaoyu herself couldn't sit still and came out to do the mission herself.

"You... me..., it's impossible!" Although Xiaoyu is very smart, she still lacks life experience. She is no match for Bai Hen when it comes to talking. So Xiaoyu actually began to believe what Bai Hen said.

"If your future self is successful, will you tell your present self more? It is because the adult world is not easy at all, so your future self will only tell you the good things. After all, which child would like to hear your future self tell you how hard it is and how difficult it is, and that you should cherish the good life now, otherwise it will end in the future."

Xiaoyu felt that Bai Hen was more evil than a devil at this moment. She even had the idea of not wanting to grow up for the first time.

"Oh, sorry, I said too much. It is also possible that your future will be smooth sailing. With the strong support of Sheriff Blake, you will become the sheriff that everyone expects in just two years. You go out on field missions only because your subordinates in the base have perfectly solved the internal affairs, so you can find time to find something to do for yourself. What about your bright future?" Bai Hen seemed to think he had said too much and quickly changed his words.

"Besides, given the current situation, there probably won't be any such place as District 13 in the future, so you can rest assured." Bai Hen kindly comforted Xiaoyu.

"That's right, in the future I will become the sheriff of District 13, so we will definitely win in the end!" Xiaoyu's eyes lit up and she grasped the key to the problem.

"Did your future self ever tell you that the Holy Lord escaped from Hell again just a few years after being sealed, and re-ruled the world with his brothers and sisters with even greater power?" After laying the groundwork for most of the day, Bai Hen finally swung out the fishing rod.

This cannot be blamed on Bai Hen for bullying the child. Bai Hen had no intention of bullying Xiaoyu. If the process had not been roundabout and he had asked directly, Xiaoyu's personality would basically not say much to him, a suspicious person who was not on the integrity list. But after breaking down Xiaoyu's defense and setting a trap, there is a high probability that Xiaoyu will tell the truth. All this is just a necessary process to reach the result. Bai Hen definitely has no intention of taking the opportunity to retaliate.

"Ah, this..." Xiaoyu was a little dumbfounded. Her future self did not mention this information. Even in the information revealed by her future self, since the Holy Lord was sealed again, the only guy related to the Holy Lord was the demon dragon that appeared out of nowhere.

Xiaoyu didn't need to answer. Bai Hen already had the answer in his mind when he looked at Xiaoyu's expression.

Judging from her expression, the Xiaoyu in the future may really not have experienced what is happening now, or she may have forgotten it for some special reasons, otherwise she would not have failed to give advance warning to her father and Jackie Chan.

Then the biggest possibility returns to the Book of Years, which means that this world has indeed become a loss belt under the influence of the Book of Years, so Xiaoyu in the future will lose her memory of this incident.

Now the biggest question arises: what exactly did the Holy Lord write in the history book?

The Holy Lord who possessed all the black energy could completely monopolize the world by himself, but he still separated his black energy again and resurrected the other seven demons. Even now, the demons are not restrained by the token of God.

What is the real purpose of the Holy Lord? Judging from the current information, the Holy Lord seems to have a lot of brains.

So let's think from the worst perspective. If I were the Holy Lord, I would have the opportunity to modify the history books, but I know very well that the modified history has a high probability of being corrected. So what can I do during the period when history is being modified to restore my own version of history to its full glory?

Chapter 72 Peace of mind

The first thing was to recover the external divine power, that is, to find a way to take back the divine power that belonged to it from Baihen, so it used unknown means to pull Baihen back from outside the world.

Secondly, the separated black air must also be recovered. The Holy Lord will not have feelings for other demons. The status of the resurrected demons is unknown, but it must be a cover thrown by the Holy Lord to hide his true intentions.

Finally, before history was corrected, he modified the history book back and tried to preserve his own state. Of course, the recovery of the black gas might also be carried out at this time, and the separated black gas could be taken back in one fell swoop by restoring history.

The final question is, do we still have to go back to the history books?

If Bai Hen's speculation is correct, the Book of History of Time does have an influence on Bai Hen, but the specific extent of this influence is still unclear. The Holy Lord should have relied on the power of the Book of History of Time, plus the relationship between the talisman's divine power, to use the sheep's divine power to link to his own dream.

But the history book should not be able to force corrections on me, otherwise the Holy Lord would just write a sentence like 'Bai Hen never took the divine power away from the Holy Lord', and then the matter would probably be over by now.

Moreover, the Rat Talisman is still with Kikyo and has not come to this world. The correction power of the History Book of Time is limited to me, and I cannot directly interfere with other worlds, so the Holy Lord changed his mind.

"Hey, hey!" Xiaoyu waved her hands in front of Baihen in dissatisfaction.

"What? Are you disappointed with your future self so you come to seek my help?" Bai Hen pulled his thoughts away from the Holy Lord and looked at Xiaoyu who seemed to have come to terms with it.

"No matter what you say, my future self is real and we definitely won, so I will never believe your lies again!" Xiaoyu regained her confidence and said firmly.

"To be honest, it is true." Judging from her performance that day, Future Xiaoyu obviously knows herself, so her existence should not have changed the trajectory of the future too much?

"We've almost finished our walk, and dad should have finished his tea, so let's go back." Bai Hen suddenly didn't want to use his brain anymore. After thinking so much, it turned out to be all just wishful thinking. He didn't get much useful information from his dad, and the information he got from Xiaoyu instead gave rise to more problems. The same situation was probably going to happen with the Demon Xiaolong.

As for the seven demons, they were obviously abandoned pawns, so don't expect to get any information from them. The same goes for Tara. In the end, it would be better for her to go directly to the Holy Lord to ask.

"Are you done shopping? We haven't even left this corridor yet." Xiaoyu looked at the door not far behind her, wondering if she had missed something.

"Or do you want to hear something like, 'I don't think there's anything fun to see with you. You won't lead me to any useful places anyway, so I might as well not go anywhere.'" Because the snake's divine power covered the entire base, it would be difficult for Baihen to find anything in this place without someone to lead the way.

And it just so happened that Xiaoyu, who had just gone through a soul-searching interrogation, would not lead him at a glance. Anyway, the goal had been achieved, so why waste time? Bai Hen now had the urge to not want to answer the questions because there was too much information in the questions and just wanted to beat up the person who set the questions.

"Am I that kind of person?" Xiaoyu was furious, as if Baihen was insulting her personality, but she still gave in under Baihen's friendly gaze, which was like a relative during the New Year. "Okay, I am."

"Are you done shopping so soon? Dad hasn't even finished his tea." Dad looked at Bai Hen and Xiao Yu who opened the door with a dissatisfied look on his face.

"When you say drink it up, do you mean drink the whole pot?" Bai Hen looked at the steaming tea in his father's cup. It was obvious that it was just refilled.

"Young people nowadays are becoming more and more rude." The old man put down his teacup helplessly, "Xiaoyu, stay and look after the house. If anything unexpected happens when I'm not here, find Tru."

"Yes..." Xiaoyu originally wanted to follow secretly out of habit, but when she saw Bai Hen's half-smile, she felt her hair tremble. She had a bad premonition directed at herself, so she could only answer with disappointment.

The old man looked at Xiaoyu in surprise. Although he said that just now, he never thought that Xiaoyu would agree easily. He was already prepared to use magic to confine Xiaoyu, but he didn't expect Xiaoyu to be so obedient, and it seemed that she was sincere in her words.

"Dad is warning you, don't bully Xiaoyu." Dad looked at Bai Hen seriously.

"No way, I was just having a normal chat with Xiaoyu just now, and showed concern for her studies and future employment. I almost gave her a red envelope for the New Year." Bai Hen really didn't plan to do anything just now, he just wanted to see what method Xiaoyu would use to catch up with them later.

"Hmph, that's better." The old man also guessed that Xiaoyu should not have suffered any great loss, otherwise she would not be behaving like this now. However, he still had to show his attitude as an elder and not let Bai Hen get any worse.

"Dad, I brought the devil dragon here." A huge figure appeared at the door, and then squeezed in with difficulty from the door that was a little narrow for him. It was Dad's apprentice Tru.

"Oh, you idiot! You came in with so many people around. Do you want to squeeze your dad to death? Take Xiaoyu out now!" Tru finally squeezed in, but his dad drove him out again, taking Xiaoyu with him.

"I was wondering why you called me suddenly. It turns out to be you." After Tru's huge body disappeared from the door, the green humanoid lizard finally walked in.

"What? You don't seem surprised at all to see me." Bai Hen looked at the demon dragon in surprise. It was much calmer than Bai Hen had imagined. At this moment, it didn't show any emotion when facing Bai Hen.

"If you died and the divine power returned to the Holy Lord, the Holy Lord would not be so quiet. Since you are still alive, where else can you go except here?" The devil dragon said slowly.

"It seems that I underestimated you. I didn't expect that there was something inside your green head that looks like an abstract art decoration." Bai Hen exclaimed in amazement.

"Bai Hen, you promised dad to change places." Seeing that the two were about to continue chatting, dad interrupted them in time.

Bai Hen expressed his understanding: "Don't worry, Dad, I just said a simple greeting. I haven't forgotten the conditions I just agreed to not long ago."

"Haha, your tongue is still as sharp as ever. I hope you can still be in this mood when you are caught by the Holy Lord in the future." The devil dragon did not object to changing the conversation location. It seems that Tru had reminded him in advance.

"Follow Dad." Seeing that the tension between the two was growing, Dad summoned a portal in time to end the greeting.

Chapter 73: Meeting the Holy Lord Again

"You guys can do whatever you want here. Dad will only listen and won't interrupt." After closing the portal, Dad said to Bai Hen and the Demon Dragon with a cold face.

"You always like to worry about nothing. Are we going to fight? Or do you think it can beat me?" The trash talk tactic is fun to use at the same time. It is fun all the time to use it. Bai Hen's bad mood after being forcibly captured has improved a little because of it.

"Enough, I'm not here to argue with you about this. If you have anything you want to ask, just ask, but I can't guarantee that I can answer them." The devil dragon said with a cold face and a drastic change in attitude.

"Huh? I saw you were pretty nice in the New District 13 just now, but you actually dared to give me a cold shoulder in this remote place. It seems that the Holy Lord didn't hurt you enough."

Apart from seeking a fight, Bai Hen couldn't figure out the purpose of the Demon Dragon's doing this.

"If that's all you have to say, then I think we can end this conversation." The demon dragon said firmly.

"How did you snatch the snake talisman from the Holy Lord?" Seeing that the trash talk tactics were temporarily ineffective, Bai Hen went straight to the point.

"No comment, this is about my cards."

"What kind of trump card can allow a humanoid lizard that can only breathe fire to snatch things from the Holy Lord? Okay, okay, let's skip this question for now. The next question is, how did the Holy Lord escape from hell?" Looking at the look of the devil dragon, Bai Hen knew that the trash talk in this conversation could be put to an end, so he decisively asked the next question.

The devil dragon replied: "Of course someone opened the gate of hell and let it out. As for who it was, I don't know."

"What is the Holy Lord's purpose?"

"What else can it be but ruling the world? Oh yeah, and cutting a traitor like you into pieces."

"Why did the God's token lose its effect on the devil?"

"Oh? There is such a thing. This is really bad news. It seems that the destruction of the New District 13 will not be long."

"What is your mission?"

"I came here only to avoid the Holy Lord, that's all."

"It seems that you don't think highly of us. Is the Holy Lord that powerful now?"

"I don't think they'll do well. As for you, well, I hope you're half as good as your mouth."

"Are you the Holy Lord's biological child?"

"I didn't expect you to be so interested in me, but, no comment."

"Oviparous?"

"No comment."

"In the future when you return, is the Holy Lord still alive?"

"I don't know. Maybe."

"Since the Holy Lord has forgiven Tara, do you think you can be forgiven?"

"Forgive? The Holy Lord never forgives."

"Holy Lord, did you miss me?"

"I want you to die..." The devil dragon said halfway before he realized something was wrong.

"Hehe, Bai Hen, my former prime minister, you are still so smart and so disgusting." The hoarse voice of the Holy Lord came out from the mouth of the devil Xiaolong, making the old man beside him break out in a cold sweat.

"Thanks for the compliment, but you don't try to hide it much, do you?"

"Not only did you induce me with words, you also exerted a mental influence on me. I don't remember that there was such a power among the divine powers you took away. Moreover, without the balancing power of the tiger, you can still stand in front of me. It seems that you were not idle during the time in the other world. How many people did you trick to get this power?"

Time has passed... When I think about it carefully, it seems that it has not been too long. Although I have guessed that the Holy Lord has recovered part of his brain, his calmness at this moment still makes people feel unfamiliar.

"But you, the more you live, the more you go backwards. You even dispersed your power and resurrected all your brothers and sisters. Are you too lonely and afraid of becoming an empty-nester? That's right, after all, the devil dragon is not a filial person."

"Give up the useless temptation. I have only one goal, which is to declare an end to your life. Be prepared, Baihen! When we really meet next time, I will take back everything that belongs to me! And, I will take away everything from you as well. After I conquer this world, the next target will be your other world. No matter if they are your friends or enemies, I will bring equal destruction to them!" As the Holy Lord's voice fell, its will seemed to disappear in the body of the demon dragon, and the demon dragon also fainted on the ground.

"Dad, what do you think?" Bai Hen looked at his father who witnessed the whole process.

"Oh no, something terrible has happened! Dad has to go back and tell the people in District 13 that there is danger there and they have to leave quickly!" Although Dad suggested that the two talk in a place far away from the New District 13 out of caution and distrust of both Bai Hen and Demon Xiaolong, the fact that Demon Xiaolong was under the control of the Holy Lord from beginning to end and might even have been the Holy Lord himself in disguise was beyond Dad's expectations.

If the Holy Lord assisted them in establishing the New District 13 in order to find Baihen because he could not find any trace of him, would the Holy Lord still tolerate the existence of the New District 13 now that he has learned about Baihen?

"Okay, Dad, have a safe trip. You can take this little devil dragon back with you. Although the Holy Lord doesn't plan to talk to me, maybe he will talk to you and Jackie Chan when he is free." He kicked the dead little devil dragon lying on the ground to his father.

"Where are you going?" Dad asked in surprise when he heard that Bai Hen had no intention of going back.

"Since it has been confirmed that the Holy Lord is assisting you in establishing the new District 13 for my sake, should I go back and walk into his trap? There may be many high-level officials in the New District 13 who have become the Holy Lord's dogs. You'd better pray that everything goes well when you go back now." The conversation with the Holy Lord was full of nonsense. The only effect was to expose the Holy Lord, a fish that he had no intention of hiding. Bai Hen had already realized that his thinking seemed to be wrong.

This world is the home ground of the Holy Lord, and the current Holy Lord is a guy who is obviously able to use his brain. Although it is unclear to what extent he can calculate, the information gap between Bai Hen and the Holy Lord alone is enough to allow the Holy Lord to sit back and relax. If we follow the normal thinking, we will probably fall into the trap of the Holy Lord.

Since you can't break the deadlock on the chessboard, do you have any idea what to do next?

Of course, the table was overturned!

Although the Holy Lord may have set many traps for himself, Bai Hen still extracted key information from the Holy Lord's last harsh words, which is that he still naively believed that the things in Bai Hen's hands still belonged to him!

No matter what the Holy Lord's purpose is, the black energy is an important component of its strength. Since we don't know the Holy Lord's purpose, we should weaken the Holy Lord's strength from the source!

Chapter 74 Fighting is fun!

Although the eight demons are all equally arrogant, Zhongsu is the most famous for his arrogance among the eight demons. He especially looks down on the Holy Lord who had betrayed the agreement between the demons, and once contemptuously asked the Holy Lord to call him "Master".
