Chapter 263: Two more bowls
"What's your premise?"
Xue Zun was quite pleased to hear the previous words, but Youhuang suddenly made a turn, which made him a little unhappy.
You Huang swallowed the Yuntun and said, "No one wants to die. Before sacrificing my life, I have to try my method first. If I can defeat the foreign demons in the battlefield of heaven, I won't have to sacrifice myself. If not, it won't be too late for me to sacrifice myself."
"What are you thinking about?"
"Who said I wanted to sacrifice you?"
Xue Zun asked two questions in a row, tapped You Huang's forehead and said: "If you can solve the external demon by sacrificing yourself, I will let you live until today."
You Huang stroked the painful spot and thought for a moment before saying, "The fruit must be ripe before it can be eaten. The sacrifice must also be made at the right time."
"Do you know how many true gods there were in the divine realm in ancient times?" Xue Zun looked at Youhuang who was about to continue eating wontons, with a hint of speechlessness in his eyes. He didn't expect her appetite to recover so quickly.
You Huang paused and said, "I vaguely heard that there were twelve true gods. Several of them died during the thousand-year war in the wasteland. I wonder how many true gods are still alive today."
"Four."
“Four!”
You Huang was surprised and said, "Two-thirds of the true gods have been killed, and the casualties among the gods in the divine realm should be even greater."
"The eight great gods and thirty-six supreme gods..." Xue Zun hesitated and said, "If what you said is true, they should have died in the battle in the wasteland."
"Where are the people of the God Clan?"
Youhuang plans to get to the bottom of it all at once. The more he knows, the more confident he will be in the future.
Xue Zun pondered for a moment and said, "The wasteland fell to the human world, and the divine realm was damaged and unsuitable for living. They temporarily lived in the thirty-three heavens of the immortal world."
"I have lost my home!" You Huang was stunned for a moment, but smiled unconsciously.
"They lost their homes. Do you think it's ridiculous?" There was a hint of indifference in Xue Zun's voice.
"I am laughing at them because they are originally a race of gods. It should be easier for them to cultivate to be a supreme god, a celestial god, or even a true god than you and me. But after 100,000 years, they are still living under the protection of others."
“Senior, don’t you think they are ridiculous?” You Huang looked up at Xue Zun, who sighed and said, “One hundred thousand years have passed, and the people who survived when the Divine Realm was damaged have all returned to the Chaos. The younger generations of later generations have lived a carefree life relying on the glory of their ancestors, and naturally have no intention of rebuilding the Divine Realm.”
"It is true that people are born in sorrow and die in comfort." Youhuang shook his head regretfully and continued to eat wontons. It turned out that ordinary gods and people were no different from mortals.
"You are almost at the stage of forming the elixir, why don't you start fasting seriously?" Xue Zun didn't sound blaming, so he agreed with Youhuang's words.
"With food in my stomach, I feel at ease." You Huang hesitated and said, "Life is unpredictable, and so is the world. Who knows if there will be another meal after this one."
"Every time I ask you to fast, you can always come up with a great truth to refute it. Can you come up with a truth to make yourself persist in fasting?" Xue Zun watched Youhuang put the last wonton into his mouth and knew that no matter how much he said, it would be useless.
As expected, You Huang swallowed the wonton, drank the soup in the bowl, wiped the corner of his mouth and said: "The long road of cultivating immortals, if you don't have any personal hobbies, how can you climb to the peaks of cultivation one after another."
"For example, when dealing with foreign demons..."
You Huang said seriously: "I will just wonder if there is any delicious food in the outer demon's territory that I haven't eaten."
"You actually thought of going to the outer demon's territory!"
Xue Zun was a little surprised. They had always been on the defensive passively and had never thought of taking the initiative to attack.
You Huang hummed and said, "In the great war between gods and demons a hundred thousand years ago, the external demons probably didn't get any advantage in the battlefield of heaven, so they wanted to disintegrate from within. Fortunately, they didn't succeed, otherwise you and I probably wouldn't be sitting here chatting."
"What you mean is..." Xue Zun suddenly wanted to hear her thoughts.
"If the enemy can go, I can go too." You Huang said carefully, "The foreign demons can open a passage to enter our world. We can try to find that passage, but... we won't launch an attack immediately. Instead, we will secretly observe and study the foreign demons, understand their habits and weaknesses, and find countermeasures."
"If we really do as you say, where do you plan to start looking?" Xue Zun did not think Youhuang's idea was naive, and even thought it was very feasible.
"wilderness."
You Huang answered affirmatively.
Although a hundred thousand years have passed, there must still be some traces and aura left.
Xue Zun thought for a moment and said, "It would be best if we could go through all the fallen fragments in the Divine Realm. Perhaps we could find more clues."
"Besides the wasteland, where else are the fragments of the fallen divine realm?" After living a new life, Youhuang discovered that he had missed a lot of things in his previous life because he was only focused on cultivation.
"I know only a limited amount. The secret place I went to last time was the God-forsaken land of Yinghuo Country, Qingqiu where the fox tribe lived."
Xue Zun calmly answered three places, and hesitated for a while before saying, "The other one is the Daishan Mountain in Ranhai."
"Daishan!"
Suddenly realizing that Daishan was also a fragment of the divine realm, Youhuang couldn't help but laugh, and then felt inexplicably depressed.
Xue Zun knew the reason very well and comforted him, "Don't worry, if we really want to go to Daishan to look for clues, we will first discuss it with Mo Zun before taking action, or you can apologize to Ranhai first."
"I will never..."
"Not at all."
You Huang was interrupted just as she opened her mouth. A hand twisted her ear and said, "How old are you? How dare you call yourself old lady? You are even more rude."
"Mother, it hurts..."
Youhuang didn't expect that his mother would suddenly appear, and he asked Xue Zun for help while struggling.
Xue Zun turned his head silently and said, "I have never been involved in worldly affairs. It is not convenient for me to ask about the affairs of you and your daughter."
"If you don't follow the rules again, I will punish you by making you copy the house rules a hundred times."
Shen Zhaojun let go of her hand, looked at the pile of bowls in front of her daughter and said, "Yesterday you said you wanted to eat wontons, so mother asked someone to buy you a lot, but when she came back, you were nowhere to be found... Mother thought you would be gone for another ten days or half a month."
"Xue Zun, next time you take my daughter away, could you please let me know in advance?" Shen Zhaojun stood up and saluted Xue Zun, who quickly stood up and dodged, not daring to accept her salute.
"Mother, this time he left without saying goodbye has nothing to do with Xue Zun." You Huang was afraid of misunderstanding, so she immediately explained: "It was the people from the demon world who forcibly took my daughter away. It's just that my daughter's cultivation is low, and many times she has no choice, which makes mother worry about her."
Shen Zhaojun was also startled, and sighed, "It's all because my father and mother are not gods, and they can't protect you and let you live like an ordinary child."
"Don't be sad, mother." You Huang smiled and comforted her, "Mother can't become a god, but as a mother who can become a god, your daughter will definitely work hard to cultivate and overcome the tribulation to become a god."
"Bloody talk."
Xue Zun poured cold water on him out of the blue, but in an appreciative tone.
You Huang glanced at him disapprovingly and said, "My talent is no worse than yours. You can step into the battlefield of heaven within a thousand years, and I believe I can do it too."
"When you have achieved the elixir, come and brag in front of me." Xue Zun turned around and said to the stall owner, "Uncle, please calculate the price. I will treat you to a meal."
"How about two more bowls..."
When Youhuang heard that Xue Zun was treating them to a meal, his appetite became even stronger.
Xue Zun sighed helplessly and said, "It's too difficult to rely on you to practice fasting."
