Keyboard Immortal - Chapter 2893
Chapter 1406 There’s definitely a problem
Having experienced the previous encounters with the Goddess of Wushan and Xihe, Zu’an didn’t impulsively rush to hug her this time. Unexpectedly, Qiu Honglei spoke first.
“Sister Yu?” Houtu was somewhat surprised, glancing at Qiu Honglei. “You should be the Nine Heavens Mystic Maiden, why do you call me that?”
Her voice was still pleasant, but clearly different from Yu Yanluo’s.
Yu Yanluo was gentle and bright, while Qiu Honglei was full of holiness and compassion, brimming with a merciful divinity.
Qiu Honglei hesitated, glancing guiltily at Zu’an, unsure whether to tell the truth.
After all, this was the transcendent Houtu, and revealing their connection to the future could easily cause unforeseen disasters.
Zu’an said in a deep voice, “Because you look a lot like one of our friends—no, not just like, but exactly the same.”
Xihe rolled her eyes. Sure enough, it was another of his confidantes. She seemed to run into one of his women every ten miles; this guy was even more of a womanizer than Dijun.
“Exactly the same?” Houtu’s expression changed slightly. With her level of power, she could vaguely sense what “exactly the same” meant.
She suddenly frowned and said, “You’re not Dijun, who are you?”
Youdu was her territory; she could keenly sense everything in this world.
The person before her was indeed as powerful as the Heavenly Emperor, but he could actually control the Netherworld Qi.
Dijun ruled the heavens, she ruled the earth; their abilities couldn’t possibly intersect.
Hearing her words, Xihe became secretly wary. This Houtu was a legendary figure; if a fight broke out, she had to strike first.
However, she immediately chuckled. Since she was one of this guy’s confidantes, how could they possibly fight?
Sure enough, Zu’an removed his mask, revealing his true appearance.
Seeing the handsome man before her, Houtu was puzzled. Who was this guy? How could he impersonate the mighty Heavenly Emperor?
Moreover, she had never seen him before, yet she had a strange feeling upon first sight of him.
Zu’an didn’t speak first, but instead began setting up an isolation array around them.
Seeing this, Houtu couldn’t help but say, “No need to be so careful. Youdu is my territory; no other being can hear our conversation.”
Zu’an didn’t stop, but first set up the formation before speaking, “I come from the future.”
Houtu’s face showed a hint of surprise: “Continue.”
“I returned to this world from the future, originally intending to save a friend, but for some reason, my return time was even more ancient than expected. That friend has now died unexpectedly. I found the elixir of immortality, and now I need to go to Youdu to find her soul in order to revive her.”
“It seems you are quite loyal and righteous…” Houtu’s gaze fell on Xihe and Qiu Honglei. Bringing two women to save another woman… Hmm, her judgment seemed a bit hasty. She then asked, “What about the Jade Sister she mentioned earlier?”
“She’s talking about Yu Yanluo, who’s also a good friend of mine.”
Houtu’s gaze was strange: “The kind of good friend like them?”
Stared at by the other’s holy and compassionate eyes, Zu’an felt a little awkward: “Yes, she is indeed a good friend who is inseparable from me through thick and thin.”
Houtu: “…”
Anger flashed across her face, her first reaction obviously that this guy was taking advantage of her.
But then she thought that no one would joke like that.
She said seriously: “Does that Yu Yanluo really look exactly like me?”
“Yes, but she is more delicate, and you are more dignified.” Zu’an explained.
Houtu said in a deep voice: “With our level of cultivation, we should know that if beings like us have someone who looks exactly like us, then it is most likely that we are reincarnations.”
“That’s right.” If it were before, Zu’an would have thought it was a coincidence, but now that he had seen the Goddess of Wushan and Pei Mianman, Gong Suyin and Shang Liuyu, Xihe and Shang Hongyu, how could he think it was still a coincidence?
Unless Yu Yanluo and Qiu Honglei just happened to come to this world, but the two had just separated, so it was obviously not the case.
“Impossible, I can’t possibly be reincarnated.” Houtu said decisively, then glared at him with a hint of hostility.
“Because you plan to become a reincarnated being?” Zu’an sighed.
Houtu’s expression changed slightly: “How do you know?”
This was her biggest secret, one she had never told anyone, not even herself, who only had a rudimentary idea.
“Didn’t I say I come from the future?” Zu’an explained, “You think you’ve become one of the Six Paths of Reincarnation, so naturally you can’t be reincarnated again, right?”
“The Six Paths of Reincarnation…” Houtu’s eyes lit up, “I see, you need to gather all six characteristics.”
Zu’an was taken aback, never expecting that she hadn’t even figured out the key point yet, and he was the one who reminded her of the Six Paths.
At this moment, Houtu looked at Zu’an: “Words are not enough, release your memories related to that Jade Girl, let me confirm.”
“Okay!” Zu’an was also very straightforward.
Houtu was somewhat surprised that he actually agreed, but she didn’t hesitate, flicked her sleeve, and used some kind of supernatural power, and soon images began to flash in mid-air.
That was the first time Zu’an encountered Yu Yanluo in the carriage outside Mingyue City, and the subsequent events.
Xihe was somewhat lost in thought as she watched these scenes. She had heard Qiu Honglei talk about the future before, but it wasn’t her own experience.
Now, witnessing these scenes firsthand, the shock she felt was indescribable.
However, seeing him risk his life several times to save Yu Yanluo, she couldn’t help but feel a surge of anger.
This guy really went all out to woo her!
Xihe’s anger level increased by 233… Houtu’s
expression was quite complex after witnessing all this: “I never imagined we would have such a complicated relationship in the future.”
Zu’an immediately broke out in a cold sweat: “I also never imagined Yanluo’s past life would be you…”
Because of Houtu’s great sacrifice as the Six Paths of Reincarnation for the sake of all living beings, he was filled with respect and dared not harbor any evil thoughts.
At this moment, Houtu extended her hand to him: “Come here…”
Qiu Honglei and Xihe exchanged strange glances, but Zu’an still steeled himself and walked over, placing his hand on hers.
The moment their fingers touched, Zu An felt his surroundings change, as if he had entered a special space. When he turned around, Qiu Honglei and Xi He were no longer there.
He was startled, but Hou Tu’s voice rang out: “Don’t worry, there are just some things I need to tell you privately, so as not to bring them into danger.”
Zu An noticed the seriousness in her tone and his expression also became solemn.
“Actually, I’ve always wondered if there are even stronger beings above the sages. Today, your memories have confirmed my suspicions; there are indeed true gods above them.” Houtu looked at Zu’an. “In your memories, I saw that my reincarnation seemed to be the reincarnation of the God of Love and Beauty?”
“Indeed, that’s why I was so surprised when I first saw you.” Zu’an was also filled with doubt. It was one thing for Yu Yanluo to be the reincarnation of the God of Love and Beauty, but how did she also become the reincarnation of Houtu? Could it be that Houtu was also one of the reincarnations of the God of Love and Beauty?
Houtu, however, had a sudden realization: “It seems there really is something wrong with this world.”
