I Am Loaded with Passive Skills

Chapter 3873: Chapter 1862: Exposed Cards

"Such sweet words."

Yue Gongnu squeezed Yu Zhiwen’s soft cheeks, calming her emotions swiftly.

She had waited for thirty years, not really hoping to meet again, but now with another chance, she wasn’t in a hurry.

"You two are too careless."

"If Dao Qiongcang were more underhanded, then I..."

She broke off, looking at the unfamiliar faces before her, realizing they were not the reckless Ali or the young Dao of the past.

Time has passed, things have changed; these were the new generation.

She lacked the status and right to nag further, merely causing annoyance, hence she chuckled lightly, shifting the topic back to the matter at hand:

"I will go to Spirit Elm with you, but we all have to disguise ourselves. Avoiding the Ancestral God’s attention is enough to ensure our safety."

She pointed to the two women before her, indicating their faces were too conspicuous, pausing before continuing:

"With me by your side, Dao Qiongcang won’t dare cause trouble from behind; his ambitions are vast."

"Though I cannot see Dao Xuanji at present, given her nature, she won’t rest. Her shadow will be in this scheme, either in front or behind."

"I guess she might have gone to Cross Corner Street, possibly targeting Xiang’er... Xiang Yaoyao, whom you refer to as Aunt Xiang."

At the mention of "Aunt", even Yue Gongnu couldn’t help but find it amusing.

Soon her eyes regained clarity, glancing towards the Southern Underworld’s nearby sea where two halves of Dao Qiongcang sank into the waves, her brows slightly furrowed:

"Dao Clan’s siblings are quite troublesome..."

As if to reassure the two women, she turned back, smiling at Yu Zhiwen:

"I just want to meet someone."

"If I can fulfill that wish this time, it would be wonderful."

"Certainly, if you have any concerns or other matters to attend to, feel free to refuse me."

Li Fuyu looked at the striking face before her; her smile was like a hundred flowers blooming, the night could regain its brightness, thinking that in this world, regardless of gender, it would be hard to say no to her.

Li Fuyu remained silent, glancing towards Yu Zhiwen, recognizing it was now time for the two household mistresses.

"What are you saying, big sister Yue?" Yu Zhiwen smiled, "Of course, we will go together. We trust you."

She naturally doubted whether even Yue Gongnu was transformed by Dao Qiongcang’s Divine Puppet.

Even the recent act of cutting a body into pieces was orchestrated by Dao Qiongcang to gain sympathy, to better approach the two of them.

Yet Yu Zhiwen wasn’t foolish; upon reflection, everything became clear.

However ruthless, however decisive, Dao Qiongcang wasn’t Dao Xuanji; there were two people he wouldn’t dare harm: Xiang Yaoyao, Yue Gongnu.

Just as last time in Jade Capital City, Dao Qiongcang captured Aunt Xiang, but after twists and turns, even when Xu Xiaoshou stormed the Dead Sea, Aunt Xiang remained unharmed until eventually returning unscathed.

The Divine is immortal; though Dao Qiongcang was forced by circumstances to capture Aunt Xiang to ensnare Xu Xiaoshou, he scarcely had time to protect Aunt Xiang. How could he willingly make enemies with the Divine?

Likewise, with Bazhun’an alive, Dao Qiongcang must eat bear courage and leopard courage to dare send his Divine Puppet as Yue Gongnu to deceive them.

Unless he’s certain that in this game Bazhun’an, Xu Xiaoshou, Yue Gongnu, and himself will meet certain death, otherwise such drastic measures wouldn’t be dared.

The unpredictability of Dao Qiongcang always held respect for variables.

At full power, he uses at most forty percent strength; the remaining sixty percent is reserved for variables and better timing, adapting to circumstances.

A perfect outcome is beyond Dao Qiongcang’s capability... Yu Zhiwen knew this "Master’s Brother’s" personality too well.

"How did big sister Yue come out?" She asked more.

She naturally hoped to accompany Yue Gongnu to Spirit Elm Mountain.

After all, this was the Holy Emperor’s successor; her vision, scope, and strategy were exceptional.

Neither she nor Li Fuyu could match her unique perspective on matters.

Yet Yu Zhiwen knew that logically Yue Gongnu should be in the Cold Palace Emperor Realm’s cold prison at this time.

She had not only gotten out but had joined forces with Dao Qiongcang...

"Dao Qiongcang backed the three families, guarding against Dao Xuanji, wouldn’t let previous events repeat. He took me from cold prison under the guise of your Supreme Master and hid me in the Southern Underworld, emerging only now."

Yue Gongnu spoke briefly, the underlying meaning upon reflection was moving.

All focused on Spirit Elm Mountain, waiting for the battle between Hua Ba or Hua Xu.

Few anticipated the impact of Yue Gongnu from the cold prison, or the unseen Dao Xuanji, both capable of influencing the battlefield again.

Even with negligible variables, if they erupt at a critical moment, it can tilt the balance!

The method of extracting people, mimicking Dao Xuanji, was skillful and chilling.

Even after the Cold Palace Emperor Realm became aware, now with Yue Gongli in charge, who opposed Dao Xuanji, would he choose to overlook discrepancies or reveal all, offending Dao Qiongcang?

Doing so much yet remaining concealed beneath the surface.

"This, is Dao Qiongcang..."

Avoid discussing the Path Division matters; during her time under Hallmaster Dao’s command, Yu Zhiwen’s impressions were summed up in two words:

Flawless!

Carefree!

Now holding different stances, as this Master’s Brother stood opposed, his every tactic and detail relied on her deduction.

Hidden is fine, at least alleviating concerns.
