Chapter 370: Chapter 330: Ancestor Emperor’s Reincarnation and Dao Ancestor No. 2

The struggle for leadership between the East and the West Continents allowed three days for rest.

Chu Huaixu remained in closed-door cultivation almost the entire time, yet no one knew what he was busy with.

In fact, he hadn’t been cultivating much at all.

Most of the time, he was actually thinking.

After all, he had witnessed the battle between the Ancestor Emperor and the Evil Sword.

Chu Huaixu had seen many of the Ancestor Emperor’s methods, as well as some of the trump cards he could currently use.

“Actually, no matter how formidable the Ancestor Emperor is, he’s limited by this mere Third Realm physical body.”

“Even a full-level master is useless if this ’smurf account’ is too weak, many methods simply can’t be used.”

Overall, the most troublesome issue right now is actually the national fortune of the Moon Country.

Constantly drawing power, it’s like never running out of mana.

Chu Huaixu still had millions of points in Cultivation Technique Experience, but unfortunately, he couldn’t regain mana through leveling up.

In his heart, he had a bold plan.

“Unfortunately, my plan can’t be experimented on.”

“I just hope the Dao Ancestor doesn’t trick me, everything I experienced inside the Daoist Ancestor Secret Realm must align with reality.”

Otherwise, I can only use the Evil Pill in front of everyone!

Last night, Chu Huaixu called Xiaoxu to his side, then had him take out the Bronze Sword.

The dead fox’s intention was simple, he wanted to test if the Evil Pill could absorb Evil Qi and thus enhance its effect?

The ability to devour Evil Qi has a limit, and so does the Evil Pill.

But the latter’s status is higher than the former, perhaps it can directly absorb it!

If it doesn’t work, then let Dao Generating One absorb it, and refine a few Evil Pills for fun.

However, there’s a problem here.

If Xu Ziqing holds the sword with his left hand, the sword doesn’t emit Evil Qi.

If he holds it with his right hand, unless he gets beaten half to death, the Sword Spirit won’t be sealed again.

Fortunately, after some discussion, they realized they could use Sword Nurturing Skill!

When using Sword Nurturing Skill, it’s like nurturing the Evil Sword; it will awaken briefly and feel like it’s enjoying itself.

As a result, as soon as the Sword Spirit woke up, it “saw” Chu Huaixu, whom it disliked.

Furthermore, there was an extremely mocking expression on his face.

The Heart Sword in his Sea of Consciousness trembled fiercely, starting all kinds of provocations.

This caused dreadful Evil Qi and Evil Qi to erupt from the Bronze Sword!

Chu Huaixu directly took out the Evil Pill containing the Four Symbols Spirit Root to try and absorb it.

He wouldn’t foolishly take out the other Evil Pill.

It contained the Emperor’s Divine Thought, and this was his territory, not stable.

Unexpectedly, it really worked!

The power of the Evil Pill truly got enhanced, absorbing strands of Evil Qi.

But this process also seemed to have a limit, not absorbing too many strands.

By the time the Sword Spirit realized, the Sword Nurturing Skill had already ended.

This damn it, is this nurturing me!

This is robbery!

Helplessly, it was immediately resealed by the Dao Ancestor’s restriction in its fury, falling back into slumber.

“How smart do you expect a sword’s intelligence to be?” Chu Huaixu remarked with some pride.

He immediately activated Dao Generating One, reabsorbing the Evil Pill back into the Black Bead, to prevent any mishaps.

Unfortunately, he couldn’t even use Divine Sense to check the internal situation of the Evil Pill to see how much the devouring limit increased, because his Divine Sense would also get sucked in….

The system’s Information Detection could be used, but my access level seems to need to go higher, what appeared were all question marks,” Chu Huaixu mused somewhat speechlessly.

He exhaled a long breath of turbid air, smiling at Han Shuangjiang and Xu Ziqing, he said: “Everything is ready now.”

He knew that after he decided to kill the Crown Prince, the two would definitely be worried.

But as usual, they would unconditionally support every decision he made.

Therefore, he intentionally said a few things to alleviate some of their concerns.

“I just don’t know, what is the public sentiment of the Moon Country towards me now, and what do the masses think about the struggle for leadership?” the dead fox wondered.

…

…

The development of the situation always went in the direction Chu Huaixu hoped for.

After all, the Profound Yellow Realm isn’t an information explosion world, even though there are cultivators who travel thousands of miles a day, many major events still need time to ferment.

Chu Huaixu’s “malicious behavior” had now spread throughout the Moon Country.

“Infuriating! Do they truly think our Moon Country has no one?”

“And to think of killing in such a competition, is this the Daoist Sect’s ethos!?”

“Still claiming to be the Profound Yellow Leader, with no grace, no style!”

Especially the comment he made quietly, saying whether the people of the Moon Country cannot afford to lose, completely ignited the anger of the whole nation’s populace.

If this were on Earth, it might not be a big deal.

Such a degree of sarcasm, it’s nothing.

But this is the Profound Yellow Realm.

The people of the Profound Yellow Realm, have never heard such words!

The criticism and denunciation were rampant!

And in the semi-final where Qin Xuexiao’s victory made a huge impact.

Even though the Heir of Prince Rui barely won in practical terms.

He just lasted a few seconds longer than Xu Ziqing.

But according to onlookers, that battle was earthshattering!

Both of them somehow soared into the air.

The divine techniques they displayed nearly reached the level of a Fifth Realm Great Cultivator!

Among the audience, surely there was no shortage of Fifth Realm and Sixth Realm Great Cultivators.

After all, this is the Imperial Capital of the Moon Country, unquestionably a place full of hidden talents.

Even when these people talked about this battle externally, they felt that the scene was utterly unbelievable.

It’s simply unimaginable that this would happen in a Third Realm competition.

On Xu Ziqing’s side, it’s very clear that his biggest reliance is that sword.

Moreover, that sword looks very sinister.

But our Young Master is different.

Some even say that the Young Master seems to have already learned the Celestial Level Technique left by the Ancestor Emperor!

Coupled with the continuous influx of national fortune that day, people began to spread rumors, many saying: “The Young Master is simply the reincarnation of the Ancestor Emperor!”

Qin Xuexiao never dreamed that one day he would earn such a nickname.

What reincarnation of the Ancestor Emperor? This is just the Ancestor Emperor fighting in his place!

But undoubtedly, all of this has stirred up the confidence of the people.

Due to many historical issues, people of the Moon Country and Mirror Country have always been at odds.

This East and West Continent Competition, to the common people, is a battle of face between two countries, even a contest of national strength!

But the performance of the Moon Country this time was really poor, with only the Young Master making it to the final four.

“Fortunately, the Young Master fought his way through and made it to the fight for the leader!”

“As long as he secures the position of the Profound Yellow Leader, nothing else matters!”

Besides, the strength Chu Huaixu displayed in the previous rounds was far inferior to that time when the Ancestor Emperor fought in his place.

This also made everyone have high expectations for Qin Xuexiao.

And the vast majority of people took a very clear stance.

Many people in this world don’t consider the actual situation at all, only acting from their personal positions.

This made countless people in the Moon Country believe the Young Master would win!

Everyone was waiting for him to fiercely teach this arrogant Chu Huaixu a lesson on the arena.

Let him pay for his arrogant words!

Under such a major environment, the finals of the East and West Continent Competition finally began.

…

…

The competition for the leader of the East and West Continent was scheduled for the afternoon.

The entire Daoist Sect team would move to the competition site to cheer for Chu Huaixu.

At the open space, Daoist Sect members began to gather.

Jiang Zhi and other high-level members did not show up; they would fly directly to a high platform later.

Steward Mo stood at the front, organizing the team.

After everyone gathered, they all cheered for Chu Huaixu.

Now, his prestige among his peers in the Daoist Sect was sky-high!

No matter how strong the Heir of Prince Rui was in the previous round, the Daoist disciples stubbornly believed that Direct Disciple Chu must win!

“So what if you are the reincarnation of the Ancestor Emperor?”

“My Direct Disciple Chu is also praised as the second Dao Ancestor!”

No matter how strong your Ancestor Emperor is, isn’t he worth looking up to in front of our Dao Ancestor?

Mo Qingmei stood at the front, counting the numbers.

Seeing everyone gathered, she said, “Then let’s go.”

However, Chu Huaixu suddenly called out to her, “Steward Mo.”

“Hmm?” Mo Qingmei was taken aback.

Chu Huaixu took a step forward, looking at the middle-aged woman in front of him.

It was apparent that her face revealed a bit of weariness.

After Niu Yuanshan’s self-destruction, many leading tasks fell solely on her shoulders.

And the demise of the person she liked for years, how could she sleep well and eat with appetite?

On the contrary, she was continuously busy.

If she had nothing to do, it seemed she would indeed find something to occupy her time.

In any case, Mo Qingmei never let herself stop.

She was naturally gentle and pleasing in appearance, and women with a pleasing look aged slower.

As they age, their advantages increasingly appear.

But at this moment, Mo Qingmei appeared several years older than before.

One could not tell whether it was due to exhaustion or some other reason.

Since Old Niu’s death, she hadn’t approached Chu Huaixu or talked much with him.

Because she always regarded this young man as a junior and saw herself as his close elder.

Mo Qingmei was very scared.

She was afraid she might lose control of her emotions and affect Chu Huaixu.

She believed that this child must also be heartbroken after Old Niu’s death.

Steward Mo did not want to bring negative emotions to him because of herself.

At this moment, she did not know why Chu Huaixu suddenly called her.

Unexpectedly, he had something to say to Mo Qingmei. But he chose to say it here because he believed these disciples beside him could and should hear it as well.

“Steward Mo, I know you have gone to see Master Nangong and others due to Steward Niu’s matter.”

“Master Nangong asked you to wait.”

“Steward Mo, actually, I shouldn’t have let you wait so long.”

“But I have no choice.”

Chu Huaixu said in a deep voice:

“Today, I’ll give you an answer and provide you with the first explanation!”
