Cloud Dream Jade Pool Mirror, atop the Undying Tree.

"That Soul Jade from the Hundred Lands Mountain Range..."

Watching the departure of the Celestial Erosion Monarch, Xiluo hesitated to speak.

"That’s right, just as you thought."

Before Xiluo could finish her sentence, Li Boyang nodded, confirming her thoughts.

"Since the souls of fallen Guhuo Birds turn into Soul Jades, naturally the one who died in the Hundred Lands Mountain Range, Hidden Flight, would also produce a Soul Jade."

"Guess who hid that Soul Jade back then?"

As soon as these words were spoken, Xiluo immediately understood.

"It’s that guy Wu Yi again, didn’t he resent his adoptive mother greatly?"

Li Boyang wasn’t surprised at all, because he knew human nature was complex that way.

"The tangled love and hate between a mother and son is hard for outsiders to understand."

"What is certain is that Wu Yi inherited more than just a Feather Robe from Hidden Flight."

"As for that Soul Jade, I think he most likely gave it to the Flower Mantis to keep."

Though formulated as a question, Li Boyang’s tone was remarkably certain when he said this.

"So why didn’t you realize this at the time?"

Seeing the confused look on Xiluo’s face, Li Boyang retorted without patience.

"I am a Prophet, yes, but I’m not an omniscient Creator."

"At the time, I didn’t even know about the existence of Soul Jades, and with Wu Yi voluntarily revealing the presence of a Feather Robe, who would think Hidden Flight left something behind?"

What Li Boyang said was the truth; a Prophet is just a Prophet, not omniscient.

Under Wu Yi’s intentional deception and concealment, it would have been bizarre to foresee the existence of a Soul Jade.

"So how did you identify the location of the Soul Jade now?"

Xiluo knew Li Boyang’s character well, knowing that if he dared to disclose the location of the Soul Jade to the Celestial Erosion Monarch, he must be completely sure.

Considering that the Soul Jade inherited some traits from the Guhuo Bird, able to conceal itself and block divination.

So how did Li Boyang know the location of Hidden Flight’s Soul Jade?

"Speaking of it, it was a coincidence..."

"After returning from the Returning Void, I wanted to retrieve that Soul Jade from the Flower Mantis."

"To my surprise, the Flower Mantis did not have that Soul Jade... or rather, he lost it."

"I doubt even Wu Yi thought that a God would discover the Soul Jade’s ability in advance and steal it from the Flower Mantis."

Xiluo knew all this, she even knew what happened next.

Fulfilling the holder’s wish was not unique to the Hooking Star Soul Jade.

Every Soul Jade had similar effects, differing only in effectiveness and strength.

The crucial point is, not all Soul Jades fulfill the holder’s wish in a ’malicious way.’

That was merely the characteristic of the Hooking Star Soul Jade, not a general trait of all Soul Jades.

Depending on the individual Guhuo Bird in life, each Soul Jade fulfills wishes differently.

"The God who stole the Soul Jade wanted to use it to fulfill a wish..."

"But never considered that Hidden Flight’s Soul Jade was full of maternal nature, and fulfilled wishes in quite an unconventional way."

At this point, Li Boyang’s face showed a trace of ridicule.

"That’s how the human-god hybrid, Xi, was born."

"She perfectly inherited the strengths of both parents, even awakening the heaven-defying ’Destiny Communication’ Divine Power."

Seeing Xiluo, who was similarly struggling to maintain her composure, Li Boyang sighed.

"While it’s true that Wu Yi left behind a lot of trouble after his death, your sister wasn’t much better."

"I really don’t know how excessive her altruism was in life that even after death, the Soul Jade left continues to help others fulfill their wishes."

"The only comfort is that after understanding the whole story, locating that Snake God becomes simple."

"Although Soul Jades can conceal themselves and block divination."

"The deeds of that foreign Snake God would inevitably leave traces."

"Plus, the Flower Mantis tracked the Snake God’s trail all the way, without the help of a Soul Jade to conceal his path."

Upon these words, Xiluo finally understood how Li Boyang found the Snake God’s location.

As long as the origin of that Soul Jade was figured out.

With Li Boyang’s methods and abilities, finding that Snake God was naturally effortless.

This is the major difference between a Prophet and omniscience.

A Prophet needs specific events and corresponding clues to perform divination.

"Although everything sounds reasonable, why do I get the feeling you’re still hiding something?"

Xiluo glanced suspiciously at Li Boyang, harboring psychological shadows from being kept in the dark.

"With your current prowess, retrieving the Soul Jade from the Snake God’s hands should be simple."

"Why bother sending the Celestial Erosion Monarch to find them?"

Though Li Boyang hadn’t displayed his power since returning from the Returning Void.

That scene where the ’world turned into a Baking Furnace’ lingered in Xiluo’s mind.

Considering the aftermath left by Wu Yi, who was also in the Realm of Refining Spirit and Returning to Void, one could gauge how terrifying Li Boyang is with Three Path Perfection.

For five years, he hadn’t shown his strength or achievements, simply because it wasn’t necessary.

Unless Li Boyang encounters a Great Celestial God-level powerhouse next.

Nobody could make him serious again, unleash real tactics and trump cards.

Moreover, Xiluo learned from Li Boyang the greatest advantage after breaking through Three Path Perfection.

That is, Essence, Qi, and Spirit complement each other, circulating continuously, raising one’s cultivation every moment, resembling a perpetual motion machine in cultivation.

Breathing or drinking water strengthens him; this is not an exaggeration for Li Boyang.

"Of course, because I don’t have the energy or time."

"Besides, the Celestial Erosion Monarch wants to collect all Soul Jades, isn’t it perfect to let him make a trip?"

Upon hearing this, Xiluo’s expression shifted from suspicion to certainty.

"I knew you were hiding something after all!"

"Speak up! What have you discovered this time? What are you planning?"

Faced with the confident Xiluo, Li Boyang didn’t refute, he’s accustomed to her bias against him.

An uneducated fool, even after learning to read, will not necessarily figure things out.

Bickering with such a fool only makes Li Boyang feel like one too.

"Haven’t you suspected why that Snake God knew about the Soul Jade’s ability?"

"Without close contact or having used a Soul Jade, how could anyone possibly know it fulfills wishes?"
