Chapter 38: Suspicion and Listening to Advice
Chapter 38: Suspicion and Listening to Advice
And where will the resources come from for a long time to come?
It must be the post-apocalyptic world on the other side; there's no other passage besides this one.
That means what you get from the post-apocalyptic world on the other side will be either bizarre or all sorts of twisted things.
Even if there are living beings, or those who are lucky enough not to be infected by the apocalypse, they will still carry the aura of doom, end, and misfortune that is spreading throughout the world.
If these things were taken to the primordial world and digested, they would definitely have a huge impact on it.
"So, the appearance of the primordial world during the Great Calamity of Ferocious Beasts is very likely what this place will look like for some time to come... This?"
Even Kunpeng was stunned.
Could this be considered an unintentional imitation of the real prehistoric environment?
Moreover, this unintentional imitation was achieved through one's own efforts.
"How scary."
Kunpeng suddenly shivered.
It's terrifying to think about. Once you choose the path of the primordial world, you'll be noticed, and no matter which way you go, you'll always be associated with the primordial world.
Is this a case of a will interfering with the development of the entire world?
Otherwise, it's inexplicable.
Is it a coincidence? Or was it destined?
However, joy follows the chill, which seems to be understandable.
They could spot Xiao Yi from who-knows-how-far away and then follow her. If they could do that, what's impossible about them influencing the development of the primordial world?
Starting from the dark side, it's about how we ourselves are controlled, manipulated, and led by the nose.
But starting from the positive side is also a tremendous opportunity.
Crisis, just a crisis.
There is always opportunity within crisis.
"Hmm, it might affect other creatures in our primordial world."
Hongjun calculated with his fingers in a very professional manner.
"It doesn't matter, this is what a calamity looks like, isn't it?" Kunpeng thought to himself.
"I think it's great, I think this environment is good." Luo Hou and Hong Jun were never the same.
He prefers this change in environment, and seems to be more active.
"Let's go, let's continue exploring."
Kunpeng waved his hand and continued working.
Without hesitation, everyone followed.
But on the other side...
"What's going on? Why is this happening? Why is there a strange aura in the air, and why is it coming from the stars? Is there some kind of calamity in the cosmos?"
Wangshu, who was always watching the starry sky, noticed it immediately.
This really frightened her.
"Damn it, calm down!" She told herself to calm down.
I started thinking about why this was happening.
But... she's overthinking it. With her NPC-like template intelligence, what could she possibly come up with?
Just wild speculation.
"By the way, isn't this the matter the Yin-Yang Taoist priest mentioned not long ago?"
Wang Shu suddenly remembered that a few days ago, the Yin-Yang Daoist came to find her and said that there was a calamity in the prehistoric world. As a primordial deity, she needed to undergo the calamity and help the prehistoric world retrieve the lost fragments.
Under such a pretext, no innate deity would refuse.
The problem lies in the Yin-Yang Daoist's sarcastic remarks, such as "You and Fellow Daoist Cangqiong are too frivolous," and "Fellow Daoist Kunpeng is our hope"...
What, even if you guard the starry sky, it's useless, you can't fly... and all that...
The disgusting meal infuriated Wang Shu.
What is Wang Shu's most important personality trait? Suspicion?
It's the personality that Xiaoyi's template gave her—the kind that's very suspicious.
After a sarcastic remark, coupled with her suspicious nature, Wang Shu felt that the Yin-Yang Taoist was deceiving her and was definitely plotting against her for the sake of his friend, the Cangqiong Taoist.
There was no Kunpeng or anything about completing the primordial world; rather, the heavens sent the Yin-Yang Daoist to send him away.
That's for sure.
Therefore, Wang Shu did not accept the summons from the Yin-Yang Taoist.
At this moment, she suddenly remembered that, apart from this matter, it seemed that the Primordial World had not made any major moves.
"hateful!"
"Are they serious?"
"No, no, they don't have that ability."
"Should I go take a look?"
"No, no, what if they ambush me, a weak woman like me?"
"hateful!"
No one else can compare; not only is she suspicious, but she's also a true woman.
That scoundrel Xiao Yi seems to have incorporated all her stereotypical understandings of women from her previous life into Wang Shu.
A dignified innate deity, the mother of all stars, the foremost goddess of the cosmos, the ruler of all the heavens and the stars...
Xiao Yi deliberately portrayed her as a timid woman who was afraid of being ambushed.
"Wait a little longer, wait a little longer."
After hesitating for a long time, between going and not going, Wang Shu decided to wait and see.
Now that she's discovered it.
Another lunatic, the Celestial Taoist, was also discovered.
"Oh no, what's going on?"
The Celestial Daoist tensed up.
Strictly speaking, the primordial sky contained the firmament, the starry sky, and many other things.
The concerns of the Celestial Daoist are definitely not about the starry sky.
After all, it's not like we're in the original sacred realm of the stars. Going to a place that doesn't belong to us doesn't really make any sense.
Logically speaking, he shouldn't have had a conflict with Wang Shu.
A vast sky, a starry night, both seem to be in the heavens, but the heavens are complex.
They should have been completely uninvolved.
But he has a pair of close friends who are good at fighting.
One is Yin and Yang, the other is Kunwu.
One is a man who loves to talk nonsense, and the other is someone who loves to stir up trouble and add fuel to the fire. They are truly like Bo Ya and Zi Qi, who wish they had met sooner...birds of a feather flock together.
Once, the three of them were discussing philosophy when they came up with the story of Wang Shu.
Then things went wrong. The Yin-Yang Ancestor started speaking in a sarcastic and unsettling tone, and the Kunwu Taoist began to exaggerate the situation.
Cangqiong's personality trait is to listen to advice.
Coincidentally not.
The sarcastic and inflammatory duo conveyed the unwavering principles of a suspicious woman to someone who would listen to advice through their sarcastic and inflammatory rhetoric.
Guess what?
The first pair of "inexplicable" enemies in the history of the primordial world were born.
Cang Qiong was naturally inclined to listen to advice, so it would have been easy for him to be persuaded to save the prehistoric world.
Coincidentally, it was the Taoist Xiyi who came to see him.
Xi Yi loves to reason.
Cangqiong simply likes to listen to advice, not to be lectured on manners.
Xi Yi also advised him to be magnanimous, saying: "After all, Wang Shu is a female Daoist. You should have the demeanor of a man. How about you take a step back first? How about we follow Fellow Daoist Kunpeng to do great things together?"
Cang Qiong, who was usually obedient, almost listened to the advice.
So he asked: Why is it you, not Fellow Daoist Yin Yang, who came?
Xi Yi said: I'm going that way anyway.
Cang Qiong continued to ask: "Then what about Fellow Daoist Yin Yang and Fellow Daoist Kun Wu?"
Xi Yi said: Yin Yang went to find fellow Daoist Wang Shu, and Kun Wu went to find fellow Daoist Wu Ji.
Then Cang Qiong understood and said: Fellow Daoist, please go back. I am easy to talk to, but I am not stupid.
Xi Yi: ...
Xi Yi had no idea how he had failed.
NPCs don't have the intelligence to think of those things.
They were in a hurry to find the others, so they decided to let Cang Qiong go for now.
Once everyone else is gathered, we can slowly persuade Cang Qiong.
Or, as the Taoist of Yin and Yang would say.
As a result, Kunpeng's response was that it was too narrow-minded, and he would leave it for now, as there was no need to gather everyone together; they could deal with it later.
That's why we're in this situation now.
If Kunpeng were a bit of a perfectionist, he would absolutely not take any action unless everyone was present.
If it were the Yin-Yang Ancestor who persuaded Cangqiong, Cangqiong Daoist would have responded to the call long ago.
It was just a coincidence.
"Could this be Wang Shu's doing? Where did she get such ability?" Cang Qiong was puzzled.
"No, I need to go to Fellow Daoist Yin Yang and see if I can find a solution."
Cang Qiong has given up on holding out and plans to ask around and seek advice.
