"No need. Let's go."
"Ah?"
Houtu was a little confused. It was Jiang Lai who said that the futon was related to the opportunity to become a saint, and now it was also Jiang Lai who asked her to give up the futon. For a moment, she didn't know what to do.
At the same time, her deep-rooted view of Jiang Lai had also changed. The main reason was that she could not understand Jiang Lai. At this moment, Jiang Lai had become mysterious in her heart.
She had thought that Jiang Lai was a lazy person. After all, she had seen him lying on the recliner and sunbathing all day.
But today, he had done something that she could not understand. For example, he had clearly come with them, but he seemed to know everything.
Another example was that he was only at the Early Stage of the Sage-to-be Realm, but he was not afraid of Hongjun. From his words, Hongjun seemed to know him. They were old acquaintances.
Moreover, Jiang Lai had gone to see Hongjun just now. Now, he walked back as if nothing had happened. This made her even more curious.
She was also a curious woman. She really wanted to unveil Jiang Lai's mystery...
However, she did not hesitate and stood up from the cushion.
Although this futon was related to the opportunity to become a Saint, for some reason, she trusted Jiang Lai very much. Perhaps this was a woman's sixth sense.
After Jiang Lai and Houtu left, the other 11 Ancestors of Sorcery also left. At this time, Hongjun finally appeared in Zixiao Palace.
Before that, Jieyin and Zhunti also snatched the two futons left behind by Jiang Lai and Houtu as they wished. The sorrow on their faces disappeared and was replaced by the appearance of sorrowful priests.
"Houtu, aren't you curious why I asked you to leave?”
"I'm curious."
Jiang Lai was stunned for a moment before he smiled. This was very interesting. Although he had just seen Houtu's violent side, it did not stop him from admiring her.
This woman was a sensible person. She never said anything. Even if she was curious, she could control herself.
However, Jiang Lai would still explain this matter clearly.
"From the moment those six praying mats were placed there, they had already been chosen as their owners.”
"What? Then we…we…"
"Yes, we're making things difficult for Hongjun. As long as we're still on the futon, Hongjun won't appear in the Purple Cloud Palace.”
Houtu's eyes lit up." Jieyin and Zhunti are the owners of the last two futons.”
Jiang Lai smiled and nodded.
"Is that futon related to the opportunity to become a Saint?”
Jiang Lai nodded again. As long as someone carefully recalled his words in the Purple Cloud Palace, it was not difficult to come to this conclusion. Therefore, Jiang Lai was not surprised at all.
"Is the Sage also internally decided? It actually has nothing to do with us Ancestral Magi. Even Big Brother Jiang, you…"
"Stop complaining. It's not worth it."
Houtu looked at Jiang Lai in confusion. She wanted to ask why, but she was smart enough to know that Jiang Lai would tell her even if she didn't ask.
"Since the Sage is internally decided, then do you think this Sage position is free?”
What? It seemed to be true!
Houtu was deep in thought.
"In the eyes of those below the Saint level, the internally decided Saint is an opportunity that they can only dream of. However, in my eyes, it's a cage!”
"Cage?" Houtu looked at Jiang Lai in confusion.
"Who else do you think can set a Saint position?”
Hongjun? No! If he was not qualified enough, then there was only one person left, and that was... the Heavenly Dao!
Brother Jiang said that it was a cage. Did that mean that these six Saints would become prisoners of the Heavenly Dao?
" It's the Heavenly Dao that decides success and the Heavenly Dao that decides failure. One day, they'll realize that it's impossible for them to advance further after becoming Saints because their Saint Thrones were given to them by the Heavenly Dao and not cultivated by themselves.”
Houtu finally understood what the so-called cage meant.
……
The group of people returned to Mount Buzhou majestically, becoming the first batch of people to leave the Purple Cloud Palace.
Jiang Lai was about to go up the mountain. He felt that it was better to let Houtu know some things. After all, there had to be a plan. Otherwise, how could he win the hearts of the people?
"Houtu, you will have a great opportunity in the near future.”
"What? What opportunity?" She didn't even know that Jiang Lai knew!
"Haha, the secrets of heaven cannot be revealed. Just stop. You just have to remember that no one can take a share of your opportunity. This is Hongjun's promise.”
What?
Houtu's eyes were filled with strong colors. She was curious about that opportunity, grateful to Jiang Lai, and some indescribable emotions.
After all, from Jiang Lai's words, she knew that Jiang Lai must have gone to look for Hongjun when he left the Purple Cloud Palace.
In that case, when she had just arrived at the Purple Cloud Palace, Jiang Lai had asked her to sit on the futon. That was the beginning of him seeking opportunities for her!
It turned out that unknowingly, he had done such a big thing for her, and she was almost kept in the dark…
This kind of indescribable emotion made her feel a little flustered, but she did not understand why.
After all, the first marriage in Untainted Land hadn't even started yet. In other words, the cultivators at this time were all living alone. It was impossible to explain this kind of emotion…
