Chapter 3160 -1614: Please Enter the Reincarnation of Life and Death, Embracing Ancient and Modern Forget Sorrow
“Good.”
Shen Cursed Yin showed a smile, seemingly pleased.
This was not an expression of tenderness, for in the eyes of others, His expression was still horrifying.
Those three peculiar purple eyes, upon receiving Kong Yuhen’s affirmative response, now only exuded desires of “Control” and an “Overpowering” aura.
Yet His movements were gentle, pinching the wine cup but not drinking, simply twirling it lightly at the fingertips.
His voice remained measured and unhurried, solely fixed on Kong Yuhen, elucidating His “concerns” in detail:
...
“I have a dwelling, though leaky, is sufficient to nourish the soul and spirit.”
“There be thieves, past transgressions aside, they gather three keys, break through the door. Upon encountering treasures they plunder, spotting valuables they snatch, treading on spiritual herbs as if trampling grain, treating strange stones as worn-out shoes; plucking feathers from passing geese, otherwise destroying them. There is no evil they haven’t done, no treachery they haven’t committed.”
“I ask You Yi: Are these people not thieves?”
Bang!
Having finished speaking, Shen Cursed Yin’s expression remained relaxed, but the wine cup was placed heavily on the table, spilling the liquid due to the force.

That sound resonated not just within the ground floor of the All Time Forgotten Sorrow Pavilion, but also within Huang Quan’s heart.
“Ah, this…”
Huang Quan fell silent as if struck dumb.
So, this is what it feels like to be an invader of Divine Relics from Shen Cursed Yin’s perspective?
Suddenly, a band of robbers barges into one’s home, and once inside, they become rabid dogs, pulling out spirit plants they see, grabbing any spiritual weapons, digging up any spiritual ore…
Taking away everything they can carry.
And destroying what they can’t obtain.
Even the air…
The spiritual energy in the air, the Unowned Holy Power, they try to take more than their share, trying to suck the air dry, thin it out, to suffocate the true owner here.
Are these people not thieves?
They are indeed great thieves!
Huang Quan dared not make a sound, as he was one of those “people,” one of the thieves, with much stolen loot still in his spatial ring!
“Thieves, huh…”
Wangze Holy Emperor felt somewhat wronged as he warmed the wine furnace, feeling as if the story was very distant from himself.
He was indeed a visitor as well.
Unlike the others, he hadn’t even started stealing before he was invited into this pavilion for tea.
Well, drinking up till now.
The atmosphere at the tea table was subtly starting to solidify.
Whether it was Huang Quan, who felt guilty as a thief, or Wangze Holy Emperor, who considered himself an outsider, both sensed Shen Cursed Yin’s intention.
How could Kong Yuhen not perceive it given the other’s directness?
He clearly understood where Shen Cursed Yin’s concern lay, but when faced with the interrogation, he responded like this:
“Even disregarding the past, merely listening to the behaviors you’ve described, these qualify as ‘thieves’.”
Kong Yuhen was the first to affirm Shen Cursed Yin’s question.
However, he soon shifted the perspective as if standing on equal ground, calmly counter-asking:
“However, being able to ‘gather three keys, open the door’ implies the keys were previously dispersed by the owner intentionally, awaiting the right time to open, perhaps even with his tacit consent.”
“This residence is not shabby, and if its owner takes such actions, but later harbors a condemning heart, there may be shortcomings in this behavior.”
Having finished speaking calmly, Kong Yuhen awaited a response without further ado, while Huang Quan and Wangze Holy Emperor both felt a slight tingling in their scalps.
Far too composed!
An astounding riposte!
This directly referenced the prior event in the Four Symbols Secret Realm, where the god slayer Ran Ming emerged and invited everyone on the Shengshen Continent.
You invited these people yourself, and now you reverse the accusation, condemning them as thieves who break and enter?
Wangze Holy Emperor felt somewhat moved, not by Shen Cursed Yin but by Kong Yuhen.
He originally thought Kong Yuhen in the All Time Forgotten Sorrow Pavilion was already pushing the limits of disregard toward the Holy Emperor.
To think that when facing the evil god Shen Cursed Yin, he could still respond like this.
“He, is he not influenced by the power of guidance…” Wangze Holy Emperor pondered this, and suddenly tensed, raising the wine furnace slightly.
The wine was overheated.
Time to turn it down to a gentle flame.
Luckily, as a being of wind attribute, he could control the temperature.
“Gurgle gurgle…”
He refilled the cup for Kong Yuhen, who had finished his drink, and also topped up for Shen Cursed Yin.
After completing these tasks, he casually held the wine furnace over Huang Quan’s empty teacup, intending to refill it.
A moment’s hesitation.
Huang Quan looked up.
Wangze Holy Emperor lowered his gaze.
Their eyes met for a split second, then each shifted their gaze away.
Wangze Holy Emperor did not pour wine for Huang Quan, and Huang Quan seemed as if he didn’t witness the scene that had just unfolded.
“Useless! Useless! Useless!”
Wangze Holy Emperor’s inner rage burst forth as he sat back down with the wine furnace, not quite sure who he was cursing.
…
“Gather three keys, breach the chamber’s door.”
“Not ‘gather three keys, open the chamber’s door’.”
Shen Cursed Yin was the first to correct what he perceived as a slip of the tongue from Kong Yuhen, before saying:
“The scattering of the three keys was not my doing.”
“Awoken from the great dream within the chamber, that is Shen Cursed Yin.”
Shen Cursed Yin, so feeble a god as to be awakened by this… Huang Quan thought impassively.
Kong Yuhen was not the bewildered Kong Yuhen, but the reflective one, replying:
“Thus, if the owner of the humble dwelling is not Shen Cursed Yin, it indeed must be Ran Ming, correct?”
Yes, if the keys weren’t dispersed by you, how could you claim to be the owner?
If you’re not the owner, where do you get the right to issue so many condemnations?
Wangze Holy Emperor’s gaze shifted from the tranquil Kong Yuhen to the frowning face of Shen Cursed Yin.
He heard Him say:
“Not so.”
“Both Ran Ming and I may well be the master of this humble chamber, or perhaps neither of us are.”
Kong Yuhen said nothing, merely curving his eyebrows slightly, holding the wine cup with a smile, waiting for what comes next.
Shen Cursed Yin’s response flowed naturally:
“This relic spans, connecting the three angles of the Heavenly Realm.”
“The Heavenly Realm holds no master; both Ran Ming and I, fortunate enough to arrive here, claim this relic and become masters of this chamber.”
“With Ran Ming gone, I am the master; should I leave, he is the master. Setting aside the back and forth, it’s another matter. For now, first come then served!”
“I, having resided here long, am the master.”
“Those who come after, are but guests.”
