Reincarnation Heavenly Lord seriously considered Darkness Origin's suggestion, but in the end, he still shook his head.
Looking at the current situation, compared to Heavenly Dao, Darkness Origin's chance of winning is too low.
Currently, Heavenly Dao, under the protection left by Nine Heavens Great Sage, with Wan Ling recuperating, is officially at its peak of strength.
For Darkness Origin to defeat a Heavenly Dao in a state of peak strength, the possibility is too small.
"If you're unwilling, I won't force you. If you change your mind, you can contact me anytime. Reincarnation Daoist, you've truly stayed in the Heavenly Venerable Realm for too long!"
Reincarnation Heavenly Lord revealed a smile upon hearing this.
"The Saint is high and follows fate, but Reincarnation never ceases. Farewell, Fellow Daoist!"
"What about the treasure?"
Darkness Origin smiled even more happily.
It was just treasure used by cultivators of the Sixth Heaven; he practically had more than he needed.
After giving Darkness Origin the promised treasure, Reincarnation Heavenly Lord had already disappeared.
Darkness Origin also didn't linger and disappeared shortly after.
Reincarnation Heavenly Lord began to ponder.
Darkness Origin's words clearly couldn't be trusted.
He said that he had a grudge with Lu Ye, that Lu Ye became a Saint before him, and he harbored resentment.
But when he asked him what Lu Ye's tribulation of becoming a Saint was, he was unwilling to say.
From that, it can be inferred that Lu Ye's tribulation of becoming a Saint was definitely not an ordinary tribulation; it must have been one of the top-tier great tribulations of becoming a Saint, possibly even the Eternal Great Tribulation!
Why did Reincarnation Heavenly Lord speculate this way?
Because later, Reincarnation Heavenly Lord asked Darkness Origin if many people were present when Lu Ye was Crossing Tribulation, and even Darkness Origin was watching the show.
Darkness Origin probably didn't understand his underlying meaning.
If Lu Ye had cleared the area when he was Crossing Tribulation, it would indicate that Lu Ye wasn't confident in passing the tribulation of becoming a Saint, which is why he would choose to clear the area.
Since he didn't clear the area, it meant that Lu Ye had enough confidence to Cross Tribulation and become a Saint.
With such strong confidence comes such strong power. Would he provoke such a powerful existence?
He didn't even drive away Darkness Origin, letting Darkness Origin watch from the side.
Therefore, considering everything, he had no enmity with Lu Ye.
Furthermore, even if he were to attack, he wouldn't use Reincarnation Obsession!
Reincarnation Heavenly Lord was completely relieved.
It was best if there was no enmity, because if he were to forcibly endure Nine Heavens Great Sage's laws to blast and kill Lu Ye, he really wasn't necessarily confident he could defeat Nine Heavens Great Sage.
That was Nine Heavens Great Sage!
Throughout history, how many beings could be called Great Sages?
Why wasn't Nine Heavens Great Sage called Nine Heavens Saint? Was it because of the Great Sage's achievements?
Achievements were certainly a part of it, but the most crucial factor was Nine Heavens Great Sage's terrifying strength.
The resources he gave to Darkness Origin, he didn't leave any backup plans, nor were they exclusive to Six Paths of Reincarnation. No matter what, Lu Ye couldn't blame him.
So safe!
...
After Darkness Origin left, he couldn't help but let out a cold laugh.
Reincarnation Heavenly Lord should believe now that he didn't provoke Lu Ye, right?
But in reality?
Darkness Origin was very clear about it.
In the betrayal by the eight women, Reincarnation Heavenly Lord played a significant role.
Now, while the opportunity to become a Saint hasn't appeared, Reincarnation Heavenly Lord is still relatively calm. But when the opportunity to become a Saint arises, how could Reincarnation Heavenly Lord hold back?
He couldn't defeat Nine Lives head-on, so he could only scheme from behind.
If Nine Lives hadn't self-destructed directly in the previous life, even if he was extremely powerful, enduring eight kinds of Yin Yang Devouring Gu and eight kinds of poison, he might still have passed the Eternal Great Tribulation. In that case, Reincarnation Heavenly Lord would definitely have attacked, giving Nine Lives the final blow.
This is competing for the Dao, a life-and-death struggle for the Dao!
At this time, Lu Ye was having a meeting with Shen Xitong and Little Heavenly Dao.
Inside the Heavenly Palace.
Shen Xitong sat lazily on the throne, covered by a blanket, looking elegant and noble, with a completely new aura.
Little Heavenly Dao lay sprawled beside her, holding her chin with both hands, her two little legs swinging back and forth in the air.
Lu Ye sat cross-legged.
"Tell me, what are your thoughts on Darkness Origin surrendering?" Lu Ye asked.
"Ding, when the Little World within you first takes shape and Ten Thousand Daos are born, there will definitely be a great upheaval. There must be an existence similar to Heavenly Dao to suppress this upheaval, and Darkness Origin is more suitable," the System said.
"Di, Sister is right!"
"Then weren't one of you planning to enter that world?" Lu Ye asked.
"Ding, Little Heavenly Dao doesn't want to be separated from me."
"Di, Sister is right!"
"Then won't you two fight in the future?"
"Ding, he can't beat me!"
"Di, Sister is right!"
Lu Ye couldn't help but rub Little Heavenly Dao's head. His daughter was truly adorable!
"Di, rub Sister's head too."
Lu Ye looked at Shen Xitong. Shen Xitong rolled her eyes. A joke! She, the dignified System Lord, would have her head rubbed by a mere Lu Ye?
Shen Xitong seemed to think of something and suddenly became very interested.
"Ding, Lu Ye, want to hear something good?"
Lu Ye?
Before he could agree, his own voice rang out.
"Respected System Lord..."
Lu Ye's face instantly darkened.
"Respected System Lord..."
Shen Xitong was quite mischievous, deliberately cutting off the rest of the sentence, leaving only this one phrase.
"Respected System Lord..."
Lu Ye suddenly pounced towards Shen Xitong.
"Ding ding ding, the naughty Lu Ye is getting angry from embarrassment!"
"Di, charge! Capture Sister!"
Together with Little Heavenly Dao, they grabbed Shen Xitong and smacked her a few times. Little Heavenly Dao also secretly took a few swipes, couldn't help but feel curious, why didn't hers feel as comfortable as Sister's?
Lu Ye's consciousness left the Heavenly Palace.
Because he felt Darkness Origin contacting him.
"Nine Lives, are you there?"
Lu Ye picked up the black jade pendant.
"Yes!"
"I've thought it over. From now on, I'll follow you. But I can't completely recognize you as my master, because those old things inside me will definitely sense it. For now, I can only use half my power to recognize you as my master."
"Once we join forces and kill all those old things, how about I completely recognize you as my master?" Darkness Origin said.
Lu Ye thought for a moment.
"Okay!"
"Alright. Oh, right, I ran into Reincarnation Heavenly Lord. He asked me if I had any enmity with you in the previous life. I said yes, so he should think there isn't any. I also took a bunch of resources from him that are useful to you, under the guise of setting a trap."
Lu Ye was actually curious about what Reincarnation Heavenly Lord had done specifically against him in the previous life.
"What did he do in the previous life?" Lu Ye asked.
"Plenty! Besides Reincarnation Obsession not being his doing, he was responsible for several other types of poison, including Yin Yang Devouring Gu!"
Lu Ye???
"What did you do?"
"After I pinned all the blame on Reincarnation Heavenly Lord, I didn't do anything else..."
Lu Ye...
"Oh, right, Nine Lives, what kind of girls do you like?"
Lu Ye???
