Qu Tong must have a close relationship with the person who comprehended [Dual Hands] back then.
Even if Liu Xiaojiang did not know the inside story of those things back then and did not understand why the Lu family had the 'weakened' version of the Ming Soul Technique, he could still confirm that the Ming Soul Technique in Qu Tong's body was similar to some kind of innate ability.
No matter how Qu Tong tried to cover it up with words, she couldn't deceive Liu Xiaojiang's eyes. She seemed to be a mutant who couldn't cultivate, but her innate talent was far higher than that of ordinary people.
Moreover, no matter how powerful [Dual Hands] was, it wouldn't be enough to change the origin of one's body and others — the [Innate Aura].
If [Innate Aura] could be influenced and changed, perhaps it wouldn't be long before [Innate Aura] could be created out of thin air and humans could be created without reproduction.
If it could be done to that extent …
[Dual Hands] wasn't a supreme skill comprehended by mortals. It could even make mortals become gods!
The eight supreme skills known as the 'Eight Strange Skills' were most likely the supreme skills comprehended by those people back then due to 'Dao'. It could also be said that they were the products of similar methods in the mutant circle after they truly attained Dao.
However, the ones who comprehended them were mortals who hadn't attained Dao. Even if they were a manifestation of 'Dao', the effects displayed by mortals couldn't possibly be comparable to those who truly attained Dao.
It was like when one was learning something and suddenly received the correct answer from others, one wasn't told the specific process of obtaining the answer.
One knew the answer, but due to the lack of understanding of the process, one's ability didn't improve in the 'true sense'. One only received considerable short-term benefits from the answer.
Moreover …
This answer was only a small problem on the road and wasn't something that could truly allow one to reach the heavens in a single bound.
If one's mind was completely disrupted because of this, it was easy to lose the big picture for the sake of small gains. Through this method, more possibilities in the future would be erased in advance.
Those who had comprehended the Eight Strange Techniques back then might have been able to use the correct answer to strengthen their minds and reach the heavens in a single step.
However, now, these people who had inherited the Eight Mystical Skills did not even know how the skills were comprehended and born, let alone the possibility of ascending to the heavens in a single leap through this Dao. It was most likely their limit to cultivate the skills to Mastery Stage of Mortal Mastery.
There were both good and bad things in between.
If the former could strengthen his mind, he might be able to take a shortcut to the Great Dao.
Due to the latter's ignorance about the birth of the ultimate skill, they would not be affected by the 'Dao' contained within it. They would only treat it as a means to cultivate it to the limit, and then they could go and find their own Great Dao.
Unfortunately, due to the problems left behind by the former, the latter would also be affected by more mundane matters after inheriting this hot potato.
However …
Those fellows who had comprehended the ultimate skill back then did not necessarily do it for the sake of seeking the Dao. Under the arrangement of Rootless Life, they went to comprehend the Great Dao left behind by their predecessors.
Now, those who had inherited the ultimate skills all had their own ideas and philosophies. Very few people would place their focus on seeking the Dao.
Qu Tong was undoubtedly one of them.
Although she had inherited a rather unique pair of complete hands through a certain method, it was obvious that she had always placed her focus on those matters back then. In fact, she even vaguely showed signs of becoming the root of the chaos.
Why did Qu Tong have the pair of complete hands that could only be inherited through the 'bloodline'?
Why did she insist on clinging onto those matters back then?
Could it be that she wanted to investigate those matters thoroughly and then find a way to attain the Dao through a concrete understanding of those matters?
Regardless of whether the method was right or wrong, and what kind of impact it would have on the stable social order in the meantime …
What was her purpose in doing this?
Could it be that this woman was really someone who was wholeheartedly seeking the Dao?
Was she just going down the wrong path?
Was that possible?
…
"I'm not sure either." Qu Tong's eyes flickered with indiscernible emotions.
"However, it doesn't matter what kind of feelings that person has toward the Lyu Family. What's important is my attitude toward the Lyu Family and the Requiem Spell, and the fact that the Lyu Family doesn't have the ability to help the Gao Family's little girl recover her body."
"However, your attitude toward the Lyu Family and the Requiem Spell is obviously very likely based on that person's experience in the Lyu Family," said Liu Xiaojiang.
"Are you that person's relative or descendant?"
"I don't want to talk about this." Qu Tong directly avoided the key question and changed the topic.
"Liu Zhenren, I've already told you enough. After all, this is my personal privacy and won't affect the deal and cooperation between you and me."
At this point, a smile appeared on her face again.
"It's time for you to express your attitude. Are you going to completely give up on opposing me in the future in order to help the Gao Family's little girl recover her body, or are you going to continue … and eventually fall out with me?"
At this moment, after confirming that Liu Xiaojiang was doing something and couldn't completely fall out with her for the time being, the woman had already taken the dominant position in the deal and cooperation with her two complete hands.
Hearing this,
"Hahaha …" Liu Xiaojiang pondered for a moment, then he suddenly chuckled a few times and said, "
"Miss Qu Tong, you're really smart. You can actually threaten me 'reasonably'. If I agree now, will you take an inch and take a mile in the future? Will you even use both of your hands to make me do things for you?"
Seeing this..,
Qu Tong gradually put away the smile on her face, and a trace of strong surprise flashed in her eyes.
"Don't you want to use …"
"Yes." Liu Xiaojiang looked at Qu Tong with a deep gaze. There was no longer any emotion in his eyes.
"Both of my hands may not be that important to me now, but to Chen Duo and the others … it's still something that I have to get."
"However …"
At this point, he slowly got up from his seat, lowered his head, and looked at Qu Tong opposite him.
He said calmly, "Why should I give up an equal deal and cooperation? It's just because I have to satisfy all your conditions …"
"She won't be able to hold on for long," Qu Tong reminded him.
"It's enough."
Liu Xiaojiang was unmoved and said, "It won't be a problem for them to hold on for another ten years. I can completely maintain the relationship between you and me. If you're unwilling to court death, I can indefinitely delay your plan until it fails."
"After all, I'm not the only one who doesn't want to fall out with you now. In this situation, the person who occupies the dominant position because of his strength … is me."
"So …"
"I can wait, wait for you to fail. Anyway, your plan doesn't seem to be able to wait for long. Sooner or later, you won't want it to end before it starts. In the end, you'll choose to hand over both of your hands to me in order to still implement your plan in an orderly manner."
"We can afford to wait, but you can't. No matter how much you say, you can't change the fact. Instead, you'll make me lose patience with you."
"Qu Tong, from now on, the deal and cooperation between you and me can be ended."
