Master of Strange Dao

Chapter 1748 - 472: Life and Death, Hidden Malice

True cultivation achieved, that's probably of the same nature as the True Word Treasure Technique once spread around.Completely severing the True Word Treasure Technique from the Dadui Dynasty Skill, turning them into two separate things.

Yu Ziqing held up the flame, quietly sensing it, just like when he sensed the flame filled with vibrant life earlier, without much fundamental difference.

Yu Ziqing was very sure that what he sensed was the Nirvana Treasure Skill, not the Dali Dynasty Skill.

His realization was very smooth because he had an imprint from sensing at the Yang-destroying Devil, which instead accelerated his understanding of vitality.

He returned the flame carrying the Nirvana Treasure Skill to the new Emperor Li and glanced back.

Understanding roughly what Emperor Li was lacking.

Even if it's just his understanding of Nirvana, it requires rebirth from death; the process is more important than the result.

At this moment, when the new Emperor Li saw Yu Ziqing seemed to have some enlightenment, she waved her hand as the flame surged forth, transforming into the scene of the old Emperor Li advancing.

"This is the final process, hope it could be useful for Emperor Dui."

Yu Ziqing gazed at the last look of old Emperor Li; he seemed to have realized something.

Following the direction of his gaze, looking towards Dadui, specifically the eastern part of Dadui.

In the eastern part of Dadui, the only thing worthy of old Emperor Li's attention in such circumstances was the Yang-destroying Devil.

At the time, he was just one step away from advancing to the Tenth Tier, yet stopped here.

It's not that he couldn't go further, but he stopped himself.

The difference here is significant.

Yu Ziqing finally understood that at that moment, Emperor Li must have sensed the presence of the Yang-destroying Devil and realized something in his heart.

"Don't worry about it, it's fine; your father has already found the most critical thing.

He's found his own path; it just takes a little time.

Let him walk out on his own, it's better than external assistance.

I've already found the key point; if you need help, I can assist.

But this might not be what your father wants."

"Thank you, Emperor Dui. What should I do?" The new Emperor Li respectfully bowed, secretly sighed in relief.

It's neither fallen nor failed in advancement, which is good.

As for assistance, she also decided not to offer it.

The advancement is better done by oneself.

If it doesn't work out, then it could be considered as a last resort.

Yu Ziqing understood instantly that the new Emperor Li intended to take action herself, rather than letting him handle it.

He pondered for a moment, took out a Jade Scroll, embedded within it a trace of the death aura captured from the Yang-destroying Devil, and handed it to the new Emperor Li.

"If necessary, just embed it in.

I believe with your father's strength, this tiny lead is already enough."

"Thank you." The new Emperor Li respectfully accepted the Jade Scroll with both hands.

"You're welcome. I believe your father indeed doesn't need anyone's help."

Yu Ziqing looked at the flame formed by the old Emperor Li, and felt that he indeed underestimated Emperor Li before.

Upon reflection, Emperor Li has always been quite steady, yet willing to embrace change.

Merely enabling a woman to become the first Crown Prince in this world is not easy.

To know that, the year the new Emperor Li became Crown Prince, she was less than two hundred years old.

It means Emperor Li had to assimilate all this within decades, while managing the pressures from the entire Dali.

Reflecting on the records, Dali didn't seem to have had major turmoil due to the Crown Prince appointment back then.

With Song's experience, Yu Ziqing now truly feels maintaining a discreet yet stable position at Dali's second place is remarkable.

Moreover, having to guard the vast Abyss Rift Valley within the territory back then while maintaining basic stability with little turmoil is impressive.

Reflecting on those strong champions who came here to assist in guarding, Emperor Li indeed had good relations.

Once the inspection concluded, the new Emperor Li invited Yu Ziqing to move to another place for further discussion.

As she is now Emperor Li, the decision-making weighs on her shoulders.

Given the opportunity, she naturally wishes to have a good conversation with Emperor Dui.

Recently, there's chaos in the southern part of Daqian; who knows if, to divert conflicts, Daqian might decide to instigate a conflict with Dali upon Emperor Li's "failed" breakthrough.

Back then, the Second Prince of Daqian is now the one most likely to become the new Emperor Qian and possesses military power.

Using conflict to build prestige and divert conflicts is straightforward.

And Dali has just completed its transition; the new Emperor Li wishes to stabilize, but unfortunately, she and old Emperor Li are entirely different.

Her actions are more aggressive, decisions more decisive.

During such times, she hopes to maintain a good relationship with Dadui; recently, she discovered some information too.

Through various reactions from Dadui as well as sayings from Eastern Dui's populace and Dadui's persistent obsession, it seems Dadui might seize the opportunity to deal with Daqian.

Given the current situation, it's truly quite suitable.

From her own perspective, if she were Emperor Dui, she'd certainly act accordingly, decisively strike.

At least reclaim the territories swallowed by Daqian back in the day.

She believes it's beneficial to communicate directly with Emperor Dui.

If Dadui takes action, she will also have to consider whether to follow suit.

If taking action, to what extent it's appropriate depends on Dadui's actions.
