Chapter 1030 – Goodbye to the Secret Thief
He doesn’t recognize himself?
”Makoto, you don’t remember me?” Lin Qiye frowned and spoke, “I’m Lin Qiye, we met at the High Heavenly Plains.”
”High Heavenly Plains?” The Jade Cauldron Realist was stunned, then shook his head repeatedly, “I’ve never been to the High Heavenly Plains, nor have I ever seen you before.”
Lin Qiye looked at the Jade Cauldron Realist’s blank gaze, and for some reason, the hairs on his body stood up one by one.
He clearly remembered that when he was at the High Heavenly Plains, the Jade Tripod Realist had even taken the initiative to stop him and thank him …… How could he not recognize himself?
”This little friend, are you also invited to the Peach Festival? I wonder where your teacher comes from?”
Seeing that Lin Qiye froze, Realist Jade Tripod took the initiative to ask.
Peach Festival?
Lin Qiye’s mind quickly flashed through the myths and legends about the Peach Extravaganza.
According to the legend, the Peach Festival was an event where the Queen Mother of the West celebrated her birthday by inviting all the gods and goddesses to feast on peaches, and the place where the event was held was the Queen Mother of the West’s residence, the Kunlun Yaochi.
Kunlun Yaochi, Pamir Plateau, Kunlun Mountains ……
Could it be that the bronze tattoo in the snowy plain is connected to the rumored Kunlun Holy Land?
”I ……”
Lin Qiye was momentarily speechless, not knowing how to answer.
Right at this moment, luscious and pleasant immortal music came out leisurely from above the distant immortal mountains, like a clear spring flowing and reverberating between the mountains.
Those Great Xia Gods who were prancing in the sky turned their heads to look at the highest hanging peak, and after talking to each other for a few sentences, they all fell towards the peak, with smiles at the corners of their mouths, each one like a spring breeze.
”The Peach Festival is about to begin.” Realist Jade Tripod retracted his gaze and smiled at Lin Qiye, “Little friend, let’s talk while we walk.”
As the words fell, he remounted the alien-pupilized white tiger, which swept Lin Qiye’s eyes and let out a low roar as it leapt up from the earth above, transforming into a streak of light that flew towards the hanging mountain peak.
Lin Qiye’s eyes flashed with a tangle, and after a moment, he still waved his hand, and endless clouds swept underneath him, holding his body up into the sky, flying right along with the Jade Cauldron Master.
”Somersault clouds?”
When the Jade Cauldron Realist saw the cloud under Lin Qiye, surprise surfaced in his eyes, “You’re that monkey’s disciple? He would even take on a disciple?”
When Lin Qiye saw the expression on Realist Jade Tripod’s face, he knew that he had misunderstood.
Legend had it that the somersault cloud was personally improved for the Monkey King by Old Man Bodhi back then, and in the entire Grand Xia mythology, the Monkey King was the only one who possessed this skill, and now that he was stepping on the somersault cloud underneath his feet, it wasn’t surprising that he would be mistaken by the Jade Tripod Truthful as the Monkey King’s disciple.
Lin Qiye simply nodded and answered on this, “Yes.”
In a way, he is also indeed the Sun Wukong s heir …… part time attending physician.
”That monkey’s temperament has indeed tightened up quite a bit after he cultivated himself, but it’s still a bit unbelievable that such a thing as accepting a disciple happened to him.” The Jade Cauldron Master couldn’t help but lament, “I heard that monkey had already rushed back from the Western Heavenly World two days ago, why didn’t he personally come to this Peach Festival?”
Lin Qiye briefly mused for a moment.
”Master has some things to take care of and couldn’t come.”
Lin Qiye had already fully substituted into the role of Sun Wukong’s disciple, not only because of the problem of dealing with the Jade Cauldron Realist, but more importantly, he had already realized that something wasn’t right.
No, it’s not “something”…… everything here is wrong.
First of all, the Jade Tripod Realist had inevitably seen him and had personally visited the High Heavenly Plains, this was an indisputable fact, but it was just that he seemed to have forgotten everything right now.
If this was just a case of the Jade Cauldron Realist losing his memories for some reason, it might make sense, but the alien-pupilized white tiger underneath the Jade Cauldron Realist was exactly the same as the one after Fang Mo’s transformation, and Lin Qiye didn’t think it was a coincidence.
He had just saved Fang Mo from Andre’s hands, and then Fang Mo turned into a heteropupilized white tiger, ran back underneath the Jade Cauldron Master, and lowered his roar at him?
This didn’t make sense at all!
Also, Sun Wukong had been locked up in the mental institution of the gods in his mind for over a hundred years, how could he have rushed back from the western world two days ago to attend the Peach Festival?
These three major doubts lingered in Lin Qiye’s mind, and even after thinking left and right, he could only think of one possibility.
This is indeed the legendary Kunlun Void …… but the timeline, it is definitely not the one he exists in.
Was it that he had traveled through time when he passed through the bronze ripples, or was it that ……
Everything he saw was originally intercepted, a fragment that once existed in the long river of time?
”Since this is the case, you can take your seat with me.” The Jade Cauldron Master smiled, “Although the Peach Fest is the Western Queen Mother’s birthday banquet, there are extremely many rules in it, and you newcomers who are attending the Peach Fest for the first time can easily make mistakes, and it would not be good if you make the Western Queen Mother unhappy.
As it happens, my disciple has already arrived, he has some friendship with your master, at that time we sit together, or slowly teach you.”
As the words fell, he took Lin Qiye and flew whistling into the distance.
Pamir Plateau.
An Qingyu, who was sitting quietly before the bronze pattern, looked like he sensed something and his tightly closed eyes snapped open to look somewhere.
His face froze with a meaty expression.
”Is it confirmed to be this direction? How come I remember that the sound of the battle just now wasn’t here?” Si Xiaonan blinked as he looked around.
”It’s this direction, the compass points right here.” Singh looked at the compass in his hand and said with certainty.
”Could the compass be wrong? Should I lead the way?”
”…… No need, you led the way twice before, all of them were wrong, you don’t have the talent in recognizing the way.” Singh shook his head, “It’s better to follow me.”
Seeing that she couldn’t fool Singh, Si Xiaonan’s expression faintly and unnoticeably flashed with a touch of frustration, she was about to open her mouth to say something more when her footsteps suddenly lurched.
Singh’s gaze fell in the distance, his eyes condensed, and he also stopped in his tracks.
In the midst of the wind and snow, a figure clad in a crimson cloak slowly stood up from the snow.
”Someone?” Singh spoke in surprise, “Or a Great Xia person? But the strength seems to be only at the ‘Limitless’ realm ……”
He turned his head and looked around, no other figure was seen in the vast snowy land, and finally landed on the bronze pattern behind An Qingyu, his eyes brightening slightly.
”Looks like we’ve found the right place ……,” Singh’s eyes narrowed slightly, “A ‘Limitless’ realm rat is just a rat, pinch him to death and we’ll be able to enter the Kunlun Void.”
He licked his lips, and a biting killing intent surfaced on his face.
He did not notice that Si Xiaonan and Leng Xuan, who were on the side, had their bodies shaken at the same time the moment they saw An Qingyu!
Of course they recognized An Qingyu.
He was the “Secret Thief” of Cangnan City a few years ago, and when the Cangnan Cataclysm came, An Qingyu had even joined forces with Team 136 in front of the highway toll plaza to block the Frost Giant’s attack.
An Qingyu froze in place when she saw the two of them.
