"In the Primordial Era, there weren't many criminals who were judged by the Great Dao. Those who survived were even fewer. The number of criminals who were judged by immortals, Buddhas, demons, devils, and the Heavenly Dao at the same time and survived can be counted on one hand!"
Qing Qing's pretty face flushed red, and she looked particularly agitated. She stared at Fairy Li and continued, "Martial Uncle, have you heard of this before? When the Five Elemental Swords are unsheathed, Yin and Yang will change endlessly, the heavenly spirits will shake the firmament, and the evil spirits will intimidate all directions!"
"It's … It's referring to the Five Elemental Swords that Emperor You refined when he first entered the big wilderness." Fairy Li responded in a daze. Her beautiful face was rather pale, and she looked rather nervous. Her eyes were also filled with fear.
"Martial Uncle, do you know the names of Emperor You's Five Elemental Swords?"
"The Purple-Gold Sword, the Rattan Sword, the Cloud-Water Sword …" Fairy Li widened her eyes when she mentioned the Cloud-Water Sword. She asked, "You're saying … This Cloud-Water Sword is … One of Emperor You's Five Elemental Swords?"
"That's right!"
"How's that possible! How do you know? Based on the traces of the great path's judgment in the sword spirit's world? Isn't that too far-fetched? "
"Martial Uncle, I didn't make a wild guess," Qing Qing said seriously. "The Cloud-Water Sword's sword spirit said it herself. It said that it has 5 siblings, which are the Purple-Gold Sword, the Rattan Sword, the Red Fire Sword, and the Living Earth Sword."
"How … How … How's that possible!"
Fairy Li's mind was in a mess at the moment, and she felt like the world was spinning. Her breathing also became heavy and rapid. She held her forehead and said, "Wait a moment, I'm a little dizzy. Let me think carefully …"
After a brief moment, not only did Fairy Li not get better, but she also became more confused. She turned around and stared at Qing Qing as she asked, "Do you think it's just a coincidence?"
"Coincidence? My martial uncle, perhaps Emperor You wasn't the only criminal who survived the great path's judgment in ancient times. Perhaps he wasn't the only one who refined the Five Elemental Swords. In fact, he wasn't the only one who was judged by the great path in the Tidal Secret Realm back then, but! " Qing Qing changed the topic and said, "Among the criminals who survived the trial of the Great Dao in ancient times, only Emperor You managed to forge the Elemental Sword, and only Emperor You managed to survive the trial of the Great Dao in the Tidal Realm. If all of this is just a coincidence, then aren't there too many coincidences?"
"That's enough! My head, and my heart, my heart pounding...... "
Li Xin covered his forehead with one hand and his chest with the other. He took a few deep breaths in a row, but he still could not suppress his heart that was beating wildly from the shock. His legs and stomach were also trembling as if he could not stand steadily. He found a chair and slowly sat down.
"Martial Uncle, are you alright?"
"Qingqing, tell me honestly. Are you sure you're not joking with me?"
"Martial Uncle, how could I joke about such a serious matter!"
"You're not trying to scare me on purpose, are you?"
"Martial uncle, I'm not..."
"Oh my god! Is he really Emperor You? " Fairy Li thought about it and said, "But no matter how I look at him, he doesn't look like Emperor You at all!"
"We've never seen Emperor You in person, so how do you know he doesn't look like him?"
"You haven't, but I have! Even now, I can still clearly remember how terrifying Emperor You's aura was. With every step he took, the entire Great Wilderness trembled. Even if you were standing at the edge of the sky, you would still be able to feel it. Moreover … Emperor You's aloofness, his arrogance, his arrogance, his unrestrained heroism, his cold and emotionless gaze, Qingqing, you haven't seen it with your own eyes, so you won't be able to understand it. But if you do, you'll never forget it for the rest of your life. "
Fairy Li asked, "Look at that master again. Tell me, how does he look like Emperor You?"
"Martial Uncle, is your impression of Emperor You still stuck at the ancient era? Don't forget that Emperor You went through more trials than we've ever seen or heard of! Legend has it that he experienced life and death countless times. Besides … It's said that when Emperor You returned to his hometown, the secular world, he no longer had the domineering aura from back then. He didn't have the Imperial Throne, and he didn't even have his cultivation … He was just an ordinary mortal. "
At this point, not only Fairy Li, but even Qing Qing herself was stunned by her words.
Even though she had been trying to convince Fairy Li Xin to believe that the Grand Old Master was Emperor You.
In fact, Qingqing had been hoping that Fairy Li would convince her that the master was not Emperor You.
Although all the signs pointed to the Grand Old Master being Emperor You, Qing Qing still didn't want to believe it. More accurately, she didn't dare to believe it was true. She even had a trace of hope in her heart that it was all a coincidence and that the Grand Old Master wasn't Emperor You.
However …
When she said that Emperor You had returned to his hometown after the opening of the Modern and Ancient Era, he had lost his domineering aura, lost his Imperial Throne, and lost his cultivation. He was just an ordinary mortal. She suddenly recalled that the First Old Master was also an ordinary mortal who had nothing.
At this moment, the last trace of hope in Qing Qing's heart vanished into thin air.
She felt as though her last life-saving straw had been blown away by the wind. She felt that the light had disappeared, and the world had become extremely dark as though her life had ended all of a sudden. Qingqing could not stand anymore. She sat limply on the bed with her eyes wide open as though she was scared silly.
She was just like that.
On the other hand, Fairy Li seemed to be in an even worse state.
She was a fairy from ancient times and had experienced the crazy era that belonged to Emperor You. Not only had she experienced it, but she had also witnessed it and even participated in it. It was precisely because of this that Emperor You's name was much more important to her than it was to Qingqing.
When Fairy Li first heard Qingqing say that she suspected that the master was Emperor You, she thought it was the funniest joke in the world, especially when Qingqing said it in all seriousness. Fairy Li even suspected that Qingqing had become stupid from cultivating too much.
It was not until Fairy Li heard Qingqing's words that she realized that the funniest joke in the world was not funny at all. Instead, it was terrifying. It would not be an exaggeration to call it the most terrifying joke in the world.
As much as Fairy Li did not want to, she had to admit that Qingqing's evidence was true. At the very least, she could not refute it.
Fairy Li knew very well that if Qingqing was telling the truth, the master with the surname Gu might really be the legendary Emperor You.
