A man from the Big Dipper, starting his charlatanship at Mount Tai.

"Senior sister."

"Mmm, Junior Sister Xia, be good~"

Weiwei's bright eyes curved into crescents, and she even tried to reach out and pat Xia Jiuyou's head. Of course, Xia Jiuyou would never let Weiwei touch her head, so she immediately bent down to avoid it and glared at Weiwei with her harmless eyes.

Seeing that Xia Jiuyou was about to cry and was still glaring at people, Weiwei felt like she had met Hakimi and didn't feel angry at all.

"Um, Elder Gai, I'll pass on that. Are you sure you want Weiwei and Miss Xia to have a close relationship?" Lin Xiu couldn't help but ask.

You mean this?

"It's alright. Didn't I tell you, young man Lin, that you are a transcendent person?"

"You will influence the fate of those around you, gradually making it chaotic."

"Therefore, people like Weiwei, whose relationship with you is similar, will not be affected by You'er's Nine Nether Tribulation Body."

In short, Lin Xiu's influence on destiny takes precedence over Xia Jiuyou's, so Xia Jiuyou's effect will be overridden.

"I see~"

Lin Xiu nodded, increasingly convinced that the old man Gai Jiuyou was doing it on purpose. He must have known this effect all along, which is why he insisted on taking him as a disciple and expanding Xia Jiuyou's social circle around him, so that Xia Jiuyou wouldn't be lonely for the rest of his life.

Gai Jiuyou, Gai Lao... he really went to great lengths for Xia Jiuyou!

It wasn't just Lin Xiu.

After hearing Gai Jiuyou's explanation, Weiwei breathed a sigh of relief.

Because she had genuinely called Xia Jiuyou "Junior Sister" with the mindset that "it doesn't matter if I die from being cursed in the future, as long as Gai Jiuyou can persuade Lin Xiu to come back."

.......

Since Weiwei had already expressed her opinion, Gai Jiuyou wasn't the type to take the reward and not do the job, so he immediately said:

"Young man Lin, let me make this clear from the start: I'm on You'er and Weiwei's side... and I don't agree with you joining the war."

Lin Xiu: "Elder Gai, I think..."

"I don't want you to think, I want me to think."

"If you don't listen to me, I'll seal your senses right now and put you in the Divine Source Liquid. I'll release you after the Path to Immortality is over."

Lin Xiu: "......"

That old man Gai Jiuyou is too ruthless! How could he come up with such a vicious trick?!

Seeing that Lin Xiu was still dissatisfied, Gai Jiuyou continued to persuade him:

“Young Lin, I know you have the world on your mind, and I know you want to fight alongside me.”

"But... you should think about it more."

"Your talent is exceptional, so exceptional that even I believe it is unparalleled throughout history. You will surely attain the Dao and become an emperor with your sacred body."

"That's why you need to protect your life even more."

"Your life... must not be wasted on 'suppressing a dark upheaval'."

"What you should really do is prove yourself as an emperor, and then sweep away all the forbidden zones!"

"Only in this way can we truly 'create peace for all generations'!"

Gai Jiuyou was unusually excited, and even patted Lin Xiu's shoulder hard to show his trust and encouragement.

Since Gai Jiuyou had gone this far, Lin Xiu had no choice but to use his trump card.

"Alright, Mr. Gai, I understand your thoughts."

"However, you should know that I have a powerful ability to deduce."

"Do you think... I didn't make any predictions about my involvement in the war?"

"Ok?"

As soon as Lin Xiu said this, everyone couldn't help but cast curious glances at him.

"You mean... if you join the battle, it will have a significant impact on the war situation?" Gai Jiuyou frowned.

"Yes."

Lin Xiu nodded.

"According to my calculations, if I dedicate myself to cultivation and to resolving this matter, there is a 90% chance that I can perfectly resolve the Dark Turmoil."

"At that time, not only will the universe not suffer much damage, but even you, Elder Gai... will survive!"

"What?! Are you serious?"

Xia Jiuyou even forgot to cry, and her eyes were full of excitement as she looked at Lin Xiu.

"At least a 90% probability..."

Vivi sensed something and her brows furrowed deeply.

"Ok?"

Gai Jiuyou also raised an eyebrow.

If he remembered correctly, he had just met Lin Xiu for the first time today, right?

Such a detailed deduction could not have been done just now.

In other words, Lin Xiu had already started plotting against him long before they even met!?

......

Lin Xiu noticed Gai Jiuyou's subtle gaze and tactically coughed, saying:

"Ahem, Elder Gai, didn't you say you hoped I would attain the Dao and become an Emperor?"

"If I don't participate in the war, my Dao heart will inevitably be flawed. If my Dao heart is flawed, how can I become an emperor?"

"Old Gai..."

"You wouldn't want me to perish in the heavenly tribulation because of my flawed Dao heart, and thus be unable to attain enlightenment, would you?"

Chapter 232 Two Junior Sisters

Gai Jiuyou: "......."

Hearing Lin Xiu's speech to the Japanese, Gai Jiuyou couldn't hold back any longer.

Are you sure the Dark Turmoil is related to your Dao Heart?

“A pragmatist like you shouldn’t have your moral compass compromised just because you avoided one dark period of turmoil.”

Gai Jiuyou put it very tactfully.

His real thought was that he felt Lin Xiu was very thick-skinned, and a person with a thick skin wouldn't have a flawed Dao heart just because he avoided a period of dark turmoil.

"Mr. Gai, you are right. Logically speaking, it shouldn't be like this."

"But... as someone who can predict the future, my situation is a little different from that of ordinary people."

"I have a yardstick in my mind that I use to measure whether a situation will become better after I intervene."

"I absolutely will not allow anything to remain unchanged or become worse when I intervene."

"With this explanation... you should now understand why I said that avoiding war would cause a deficiency in my Dao heart, right?"

.......

Lin Xiu knew that although the probability of the universe being completely destroyed existed, it was not very high.

There will always be beings sealed within the divine source, and there will always be insignificant creatures that survive.

With these tiny creatures as seeds, the universe will eventually flourish again.

Even if you try to escape, the universe won't be destroyed.

but.......

Lin Xiu simply did not want to see the dark turmoil occur, and he did not want to live a life of humiliation within the Imperial Array.

Lin Xiu was happy to do his best to do something that was true to his conscience!

Because... after experiencing the "return to the Dao Fruit state" just now, Lin Xiu had already completely understood!

If Ye Fan, a Great Sage, dared to challenge him, what wouldn't he dare to do?

Ye, who has suffered for so long, dares not stand shoulder to shoulder with Ye Fan. What qualifications does he have to be the leader of the Bitter Ye Cult?

If Ye Fan can go, so can I!

.....

Of course, from a general perspective, Lin Xiu was quite rational.

He first calculated that he had a 90% chance of perfectly resolving the situation if he went all out, and the probability of dying was not high, before deciding to go all out.

If the probability of a perfect solution is only 10%, and the probability of death is very high... Lin Xiu will still back down when he should.

After all, he is different from Ye Fan.

When Ye Fan joined the war, he did not know whether he would become an emperor in the future.

Lin Xiu knew that with the Primordial Ancient Character, he could at least become a Quasi-Immortal Emperor, or even an Immortal Emperor, in the future.

He truly believed that "as long as you're alive, there's always a way!"

......

Hahaha!~

After hearing Lin Xiu's explanation, Gai Jiuyou's chest trembled violently, and he let out an unprecedentedly hearty laugh.

"Alright! In that case, let's go together!"

"I'm also very curious to see just how far you can go!"

Will avoiding war leave a flaw in my Dao heart? If that's the case, then I won't avoid it!

Gai Jiuyou didn't care whether he would survive because of Lin Xiu's participation in the battle; he only wanted to see Lin Xiu, the most extraordinary person he had ever seen, continue to move forward!

If Lin Xiu could become the number one immortal in this world, wouldn't he be able to say, "I have taught an immortal?"

"Master, you..."
