Chapter 306 - 199: Qingcang’s Resurrection_2
"In the Lord Emperor’s pill furnace," Wu Kong replied, straightforward, "That kid probably hasn’t realized yet, or the Immortality Pill has influenced him. Now it’s your turn to answer."
Yu Hua responded, "I can kill the Lord Emperor, but his dharma form of Dragon Vein is troublesome, and I cannot guarantee safety against the Devil Clan immediately after."
"Is that so?"
Wu Kong stroked his chin, sometimes frowning, sometimes relaxing.
Because Yu Hua’s condition was worse than he had imagined, but not as bad. Coupled with the immeasurable future displayed by Gu Wen, Wu Kong considered whether or not to enter the fray.
Victory might not yield any benefits, while defeat and attracting Jianmu’s attention could have endless bad consequences.
Eventually, he suppressed the thought, deciding to stick with the original plan.
"According to the information I’ve gathered, the Immortality Pill is preparing to become an Immortal and head to the Devil Clan’s Earth Realm. Also, the Twelve Demon Ancestors will not enter the Immortal Land in the flesh. So, Fellow Daoist Qingcang, you might as well give up on the idea of mutual destruction."
The Immortality Pill becomes an Immortal; the Lord Emperor fed it so many Spiritual Objects, only to end up benefitting someone else. Was someone as powerful as the Lord Emperor, in the end, just a piece on the chessboard?
Gu Wen felt little joy, only a pressing realization that beneath the Immortals, all are insignificant.
