Chapter 178

Xie Bi An concealed many important plot points, saying that it was Cui Jue who discovered his true identity in his own way and told them when they returned to the Underworld, which is why Zhong Kui forbade him from coming to Kunlun.

Lan Chui Han didn't speak for a long time. Amazement, suspicion, worry, incomprehension, all kinds of emotions switched on his face, and finally solidified into contemplation.

Xie Bi An waited patiently for him to digest this secret.

After a long time, Lan Chui Han spoke slowly, "Do you believe in Official Lord Cui?"

"Yes, both my master and I believe him." Xie Bi An replied without hesitation.

"You are the reincarnation of Emperor Kong Hua." Lan Chui Han stared at Xie Bi An. His eyes were dark, gloomy, and difficult to understand. He slowly pursed his lips, "All of these, they can't be a coincidence, right?"

His life is inextricably linked to the legacy of Emperor Zong’s era and the turmoil of the immortal cultivation world, which was soaked with the flavor of conspiracy. How can it be a coincidence? But even he himself does not know the truth hidden behind the heavy clouds of suspicion yet. He had to tell the truth: "Brother Lan, I also just learned that I am the reincarnation of the Human Emperor. There are many things that I am just as confused about as you are. "

"What about Heaven Master? Do you believe that Heaven Master knew it recently?"

Xie Bi An had to admire Lan Chui Han's perceptiveness, "I'm not sure, but I guess that Master probably knew from the beginning. That's why he took me in as his disciple."

Fan Wu She could not stand seeing Lan Chui Han's aggressiveness and spoke, "Even if my master knew from the beginning, it’s reasonable and fair. He was afraid that senior brother would get into trouble and die because of the golden core, so he put him by his side for protection."

Lan Chui Han sighed: "I'm not doubting Heaven Master, it's just that this matter really shocked me so much. I always feel that things are even more complicated than we thought."

"Brother Lan, I have the same thoughts as you. Wait till when I see Master, I also have a lot of questions I want to ask him, but right now, like you said, the most important thing is to stop Qi Meng Sheng first."

"You said that Qing Wu Zi, who was beside Qi Meng Sheng, tampered with the Golden Trunk Jade Policy?"

"Yes, the Golden Trunk Jade Policy was found by him. Although I don't know why he did it, most likely it was for my core as well."

"But after Shen Nong Ding is opened and the Absolute Human Emperor cannot be refined successfully, Qi Meng Sheng will find out that that golden core is not what she wanted, and the first person she will suspect is Qing Wu Zi."

Xie Bi An nodded: "Just because of this, Qing Wu Zi knows that I am the reincarnation of the Human Emperor, but he doesn't know that I also know. As soon as he gets the news, he will definitely come to see us, and we can blackmail him by denouncing him to Qi Meng Sheng."

"But how am I going to meet Qing Wu Zi?"

"You don't need to meet Qing Wu Zi, you only need to meet Yun Zhong Jun." Fan Wu She said, "Li Bu Yu has tried to negotiate with Qi Meng Sheng several times, and Qi Meng Sheng only sends out Yun Zhong Jun. If you request to meet Yun Zhong Jun in the name of personal friendship, he should be willing to meet you."

"And then what?"

"You just persuade him to surrender as usual, and then tell him that Qing Wu Zi's master, Huang Dao Zi, is a charlatan. That Qing Wu Zi is worse than his master and cannot be trusted gullibly. That the cultivator from Yanzhou has mediocre qualifications and cannot be the reincarnation of Emperor Kong Hua, and that Heaven Master has already gone back to the Underworld to inquire about the reincarnation of the real Human Emperor." Xie Bi An said, "Doesn't matter if Qi Meng Sheng believes it or not as there will be one bit of suspicion in her heart, and this word will definitely reach Qing Wu Zi's ears as well. He will be restless before us."

Lan Chui Han nodded: "This plan is feasible. If Qi Meng Sheng really suspects Qing Wu Zi, Qing Wu Zi will probably have difficulty in protecting his life." He thought for a moment and asked again, "Should we discuss this matter with Heaven Master?"

Xie Bi An shook his head definitively, and he laughed bitterly, "Brother Lan, if we could discuss this with my master, why would we sneakily invite you here? If master knew I was here, he would definitely be furious and might even chase me away."

"Heaven Master did the right thing." Lan Chui Han picked at the sluggish candlewick. The sudden brightening of the fire shone his face a little clearer, but his eyes seemed to be covered with a deeper shadow, "Although this plan is feasible, why should I do it accordingly?"

Xie Bi An was startled, and Fan Wu She's eyes became gloomy.

"Brother Lan ..."

Lan Chui Han smiled faintly. This smile is no different from ordinary, yet Xie Bi An detected his anger.

"Heaven Master leaving you in the underworld is the best plan. If you are really the reincarnation of the Human Emperor, as long as Qi Meng Sheng can't get your golden core, she will die sooner or later, and the whole immortal cultivation world doesn't need to bleed and sacrifice themselves. Just trap her in Chidi City and wait for her to eat her own evil fruit." Lan Chui Han looked at Xie Bi An with a smile, "Don't you think that's correct?"

Xie Bi An was speechless for a moment.

"Unless you are hiding another more important reason from me."

Fan Wu She said coldly: "When Qi Meng Sheng found out that she was deceived, she will definitely try everything to find the reincarnation of the real Human Emperor. She will kill more people, and will use the safety of the immortal cultivation world to coerce us to handing over the reincarnation of the Human Emperor. No one knows how long she will live, but as long as she lives, the immortal cultivation world will not have peace. Only by getting rid of her completely can we stop more innocent people from dying in vain. "

"When this battle is fought, the people who died will probably be even more." Lan Chui Han leisurely smiled, "In my opinion, we should meet all changes by remaining unchanged. Bi An should just listen to Heaven Master and obediently return to the Underworld. With no Absolute Human Emperor, we certainly will live longer than Qi Meng Sheng."

Xie Bi An showed a difficult expression. He knew the intent of Lan Chui Han's words, but as an Underworld General, how could he let out the heavenly secret?

"Master may die in this battle."

"Wu She!" Xie Bi An shouted at him to stop, but it was already too late.

Lan Chui Han was stunned, "What do you mean?"

Xie Bi An glared angrily at Fan Wu She and slumped his shoulders in frustration, "I peeked at the Book of Life and Death."

Lan Chui Han pondered for a moment: "Cause and effect and karma are interrelated. You want to change the karma, but have you ever thought maybe this is the destined arrangement? If you didn't come instead, Heaven Master may have a higher possibility of overcoming this calamity."

"I did think about it before." Xie Bi An's expression was solemn and quiet, his voice was low, "but no one can predict what has not yet happened. Waiting in the underworld for the news of master's life or death who is a thousand miles away, I can't do it. I would rather fight with my life." He looked at Lan Chui Han with a glittering gaze that hid a trace of water vapor, "Brother Lan, are you willing to help us now?"

"Okay." Lan Chui Han sighed, "Whether it is destiny or man-made, we always have to go on to see the outcome."

Xie Bi An said gratefully, "Thank you."

Lan Chui Han looked at Xie Bi An helplessly: "I find that I could never refuse you. Do you still remember, when you and Heaven Master went to Huayueye as guests back then, you stammered and blushed and asked me for a Dangshanhe?"

Xie Bi An didn't know why Lan Chui Han suddenly brought up this matter. He smiled lightly and said, "Of course I remember. Now that I think about it, I am a little embarrassed that you gave me such a precious maternal plant."

Fan Wu She looked at Lan Chui Han with cold eyes. He promised Xie Bi An to "be polite", but he couldn't stop the rejection of Lan Chui Han in his heart from reacting on his face. Ever since he knew that Lan Chui Han might be the grandson of Zong Zhong Ming, he finally understood why he was annoyed at the sight of this person.

"Yeah, that maternal plant is the second generation maternal plant of the Dangshanhe variety. It's a direct descendant of the female parent of this variety."

"This ..." Xie Bi An's pair of black eyes opened wide. He felt a little lost for a moment. He only knew the maternal plant was a hundred years old and hard to buy with great wealth, but he did not know that it was so rare. How could Lan Chui Han give such an important thing to a friend whom he had not known for that long?

Lan Chui Han saw through what Xie Bi An was thinking: "You don't need to be nervous, I have never regretted giving you this gift. Now that I think about it, maybe it is fate. It is said that Emperor Kong Hua loved orchids when he was young."

Xie Bi An An felt tense. Yes, Zong Zi Heng liked orchids. Although in many memory fragments, there are no more orchids.

Fan Wu She felt even worse. He remembered his big brother's "Orchid Garden", especially that day the Orchid Garden was destroyed. That rain also poured his heart thoroughly.

Lan Chui Han stood up: "I’ll go back first. You guys wait for my news."

"Okay." Xie Bi An said, "Wait until we get in touch with Qing Wu Zi, then we will plan the next step."
