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

"Um, senior, the scriptures on Holy Body Lin Xiu's body, you probably didn't obtain them using the same methods as you are now, right?" After thinking for a moment, the crane still asked somewhat awkwardly.

"Hahaha~ Although I am unrestrained and wild, I have not reached the point of seizing the inheritance of other imperial clans. Don't worry, the scriptures in this kid's hands were all obtained by himself."

"Okay, that's fine."

The crane nodded repeatedly, its crest drenched in cold sweat.

Because he noticed that Lin Xiu was smiling at him while playing with a celestial mirror that was said to be inscribed with the laws of the Void Emperor.

Forehead......

Void Mirror?

What about the Void Mirror?

He remembered that Gai Jiuyou hadn't mentioned the Ji family, right?

So, Gai Jiuyou has become much more restrained and humble?

Finally, the crane sighed helplessly and asked Lin Xiu for confirmation:

"As I predicted, you do not intend to become the successor of the Chaotic Ancient Emperor, but only intend to use the Chaotic Ancient Emperor's imperial laws to achieve your own imperial path."

The crane wasn't stupid either. Lin Xiu had already obtained so many scriptures from the Great Emperors, yet he hadn't claimed to be a descendant of any Great Emperor.

Even if someone were to obtain the legacy of the Chaotic Ancient Emperor again, they would not claim to be his successor.

"Yes, senior guessed correctly. I do not simply call myself a successor of the Chaotic Ancient Era."

"When someone claims to be a descendant of the ancients, they either don't include any of these claims at all, or they include them entirely. There is absolutely no reason for someone to claim to be a descendant of the ancients without any connection to the past."

"However, the Chaotic Ancient Emperor is indeed one of the emperors I admire most, and I am absolutely not exaggerating when I say that."

Lin Xiu nodded calmly.

The reason he was so calm was that... he had already come up with a reasoning that would convince the crane from both a physical and psychological perspective.

Even without Gai Jiuyou and Wei Yi present today, Lin Xiu was confident that he could get the crane to hand over the inheritance of the Chaotic Ancient Emperor.

Because... Lin Xiu had already planned how to obtain the inheritance of the Chaotic Ancient Emperor.

Lin Xiu always had complete confidence in things he had planned long ago.

.......

Seeing Lin Xiu speak like this, the crane was also quite helpless.

"Ah~"

"If this is your final decision, then I can only say I'm sorry."

"As the guardian of the legacy of the Chaotic Ancient Emperor, I cannot allow someone who refuses to call himself the successor of the Emperor to continue participating in the trials, nor can I allow him to obtain the entire legacy of the Emperor. Please understand my position."

"However... as long as you swear not to pass on the Emperor's scriptures and laws to others, I will not take back what you have already obtained."

The crane's actions were perfectly reasonable.

Some direct descendants or high-ranking members of imperial clans, if they pass on the Imperial Scripture to others by chance, will often make those others make such a promise.

The Hengyu Scripture that Lin Xiu obtained from Jiang Taixu is an example of this.

Unfortunately... logically speaking, the crane did not have the right to refuse Lin Xiu.

"Haha~"

"Senior, do you know how the Emperor's Scripture of the Chaotic Ancient Emperor was created?" Lin Xiu asked with a smile.

How was it created?

The crane, not understanding why Lin Xiu asked this question, frowned and said:

"Naturally, it was created by the Great Emperor after countless battles, forming a demonic embryo, rising from ruin and reviving from annihilation, defeating all heroes, merging with all the Dao, and proving himself to become the Emperor."

The crane's reply was filled with reverence for the Great Emperor of Chaos, and could be described as sincere.

But, the next second Lin Xiu reminded him:

"Really?"

"Senior, are you sure that the scriptures of the Chaotic Ancient Emperor were all created by himself? And that he did not draw on the efforts of other emperors?"

"Ah, this..."

When Lin Xiu said that, the crane remembered that there was indeed such a passage recorded in the notes of the Chaotic Ancient Emperor that it had read!

"You're right, the Chaotic Ancient Emperor did indeed draw upon the scriptures of other Great Emperors, but... why are you bringing this up? Are you implying that if Great Emperors can draw upon scriptures, then you can too?"

"Haha~ Of course not."

"What I mean is, what goes around comes around."

"The Chaotic Ancient Emperor still has a karmic debt to repay."

Lin Xiu smiled as he materialized the Burial Heaven Guide and handed it to the little girl.

"Come on, little girl, give me a little something!"

"Huh? Is it okay? But Sister Weiwei told me not to brag about it in front of outsiders." The little girl hesitated.

"Of course, no problem, right? Junior Sister Weiwei?"

"Ah."

Weiwei didn't know what Lin Xiu was going to do, but she nodded immediately.

......

After receiving Weiwei's permission, the little girl immediately picked up the Burial Sky Melody and began to play it without restraint.

"Waaaaah~~~"

The sound was like a long-blocked sewer finally being cleared, making one involuntarily frown and grind their teeth.

Of course, the most important thing was the divine light that emanated from Xiao Nannan's body after she came into contact with the Burial Heaven Guide, and the echo of the Great Dao that resonated with the sorrow of all paths.

"This is!"

The crane's long neck straightened instantly, and its long beak opened wide.

Only now did the crane finally understand what Lin Xiu meant by "repaying karma".

Depend on!

Is that person still alive?

Okay~

If Lin Xiu and that Empress have a close relationship, then the Chaotic Ancient Emperor should indeed pay a price!

Chapter 237 The Trial of the Chaotic Ancient Emperor

“Alright, in that case, I will take you to the Northern Plains for now, so that you may undergo the Emperor’s test.”

The crane eventually gave in.

There's nothing we can do; circumstances dictate our actions.

Given that he was not as strong as the opponent and had incurred karmic debts, even if he didn't give Lin Xiu the inheritance of the Chaotic Ancient Emperor, he should at least give Lin Xiu a chance to try.

"Alright, then I'll trouble you to lead the way, senior."

Lin Xiu smiled slightly, having anticipated the decision made by the Crane Society.

.......

Seeing that the crane agreed, Gai Jiuyou finally released the crane from its seal, allowing him to get up.

After getting up, the crane stretched its wings vigorously and looked at Lin Xiu again.

“Holy Body Lin Xiu, I can take you to the Northern Plains so that you can undergo the test of the Chaotic Ancient Emperor and obtain the remaining inheritance of the Emperor.”

"But before that, I hope you can promise me two things."

"Oh? Which two things? Please just say them, senior."

Lin Xiu raised an eyebrow.

"First, you must guarantee that once you receive the legacy of the Chaotic Ancient Emperor, you will not easily pass it on to others."

“Of course,” Lin Xiu replied immediately.

Secondly.

"As the guardian of the legacy of the Chaotic Ancient Emperor, I have yet to find a truly suitable successor."

"If I am unable to find a suitable successor after my death, I hope you can complete my task and find a true successor for the Chaotic Ancient Emperor."

The crane believed that Lin Xiu had a high probability of becoming a Great Perfection Saint Body.

If he cannot find a suitable successor to the Chaotic Ancient lineage, outsourcing this matter to a more powerful and higher-level Great Accomplished Holy Body would also be a good option.

Although Lin Xiu seems a bit unreliable, he trusts the Holy Body lineage, which has fought continuously for the human race.

Besides, apart from the Chaotic Ancient Emperor, didn't the other emperors also provide their own scriptures?

The crane felt that the Ji family was the most generous.

Even the Void Mirror stayed by Lin Xiu's side to protect him; it was incredibly generous of them!

Since Void Mirror was willing to follow Lin Xiu, how could he not believe that Lin Xiu was a good person?

As everyone knows, the owner of the Void Mirror is the Void Emperor, who spent his life conquering forbidden zones.

The Void Mirror chose Lin Xiu, and Lin Xiu's physique is the Sacred Body! What does this mean?

This means that Lin Xiu will also embark on the same path as the Great Accomplished Holy Body and the Void Emperor!

Therefore, as long as Lin Xiu doesn't die young and he himself passes away before Lin Xiu, he would still be happy to let Lin Xiu help the Chaotic Ancient Emperor find a successor.

.......

"Okay, I'll agree to this."

"I believe that the successor I have found will surely satisfy you, senior," Lin Xiu said with a smile.

"Oh? Judging from your tone, you already have an idea?"

The crane was a little flustered. They found him so quickly. Could Lin Xiu have just found someone to fill the position?
