Iron Snow Clouds

Chapter 3286 (Three Thousand Two Hundred and Eighty-six) Playing Tricks
He recalled for a moment, and then said, "At that time I told Elder Nie that my ritual to help you practice doesn't mean I won't think of a way. I will definitely try my best to think of a way. I also said that if I really come up with a way one day..."

Nie Huihou said, "When you said that, I said that from your tone, it seemed that there was not much hope. You said that it would be good to have less hope for some things in the future. Isn't that right?"

"Yes." Quan Chumeng said.

"Now thinking about what you said to me at that time, I'm wondering if you were just kidding me!" Nie Huihou said, "Did you actually know at that time that it was impossible for you to reset the Soul-Consolidating Talisman? Were all the things that happened afterwards just a show? Tell me!"

"Of course not!" Quan Chumeng said, "I can fool anyone but Elder Nie!"

"Is that so?" Nie Huihao sneered.

"Of course!" Quan Chumeng said, "How could I play tricks on someone who can bring me endless wealth and glory in the future? Besides, Elder Nie is an elder of the Tiecang tribe, with power and status. How could I play tricks on such a person? What good would it do me to play tricks on such a person?"

Nie Huihao glared at Quan Chumeng and said, "That sounds really nice. I remember you told me at the time that if you really came up with a solution under such circumstances... you could give us a few more surprises, right?"

Quan Chumeng said: "I asked Elder Nie at that time."

"Ask?" Nie Huihao asked.

"I remember asking Elder Nie at the time: 'Isn't this an extra surprise?'" Quan Chumeng said.

"You're starting to quibble about words?" Nie Huihou asked, "Does it matter whether you ask or just say it?"

"Yes." Quan Chumeng said. "Bullshit!" Nie Huihou said, "Don't think I have forgotten what you said next! I asked you if you had high hopes when you tried to reset the Soul-Consolidating Talisman on those relics, and you told me that you didn't think too much about it! You didn't think too much! You really didn't think too much! Are you kidding me? Of course you don't need to think too much when you're kidding people, just do it if you want, right?"

"No!" Quan Chumeng said.

"You still dare to be stubborn!" Nie Huihou said, "Do you remember what I said to you next?"

Quan Chumeng recalled.

"Do you still need to think about it? Can you remember it? Most people just say it casually when they play tricks on others. They won't remember what they said or what the other person said, right?" Nie Huihou said.

Quan Chumeng remembered and said quickly, "No. I remember that Elder Nie asked me if there was little hope in the first place. I was just trying to give Elder Nie some hope. I have said it all to prove that I am not kidding! How dare I kid Elder Nie? That would be a stupid thing. How could I do such a stupid thing?"

"You remember how I asked that question, but do you remember how you answered it?" Nie Huihou said.

"Remember!" Quan Chumeng said quickly, "I told Elder Nie at the time that there is actually hope for this matter."

"What else did you say?" Nie Huihou asked, "You said more than that at that time, I remember it!"

Quan Chumeng thought for a moment and said, "I said that if it is normal, I can reset the Soul-Gathering Talisman, and I also said that only I, a Taoist priest who has never been exposed to the world of cleansing, can do it."
