You don't want your secret to be revealed by others, right?-Chapter 161 - 5. Both are needed

"Heart Palace?"

In the serene Qinghu Inn, Lin Yue stood in the courtyard, holding a long saber in his hand, and couldn’t help but slightly raise his brows.

The most mysterious Heart Palace?

The Heart Phase Cultivation Method of the ancient Human Emperor?

Guided by the Second Prince?

The information within this Third Ring secret immediately piqued Lin Yue’s interest.

Nowadays, the probability of receiving Second Ring secrets had increased a lot for him, as had the Third Ring ones, which seemed even more precise.

He temporarily suppressed the Wind and Fire Intent brewing in his heart, sheathed his saber, and sat down at the stone table in the courtyard.

"Master?"

Seeing this, Baili Fengzhi nearby couldn’t help but ask in confusion, "Why stop practicing?"

"Nothing, just taking a rest," Lin Yue shook his head slightly and said, "It’s just right to chat with you for a while, sit."

Baili Fengzhi responded with an "Oh," sat down opposite him, and asked, "What does the master wish to talk about?"

Lin Yue smiled and said casually, "Let’s start with Pangu creating heaven and earth."

"Pangu?"

Baili Fengzhi looked at Lin Yue in astonishment.

Lin Yue knew that this world did not have the myth of Pangu creating heaven and earth, so he shook his head and said, "It’s nothing, I was just..."

"Where did the master hear about the myth of Pangu creating heaven and earth?" Baili Fengzhi asked in confusion, "My mother told me this mythical story when I was little, but she said she heard it from my father."

"Your father?" Lin Yue was also taken aback.

He knew that Baili Fengzhi’s father came from Eternal Night.

There were no myths of Pangu creating heaven and earth in Great Yong, but could they exist in Eternal Night?

Lin Yue felt a chill as he reflected, but had no clue where to begin.

He didn’t want to dwell on the meaningless, so he said, "I heard that after the mythological era, the Human Clan went through a long period of hardship before gradually rising up. Then came the Divine Emperor driving away Eternal Night and establishing the Divine Dynasty of Great Yong. I’m not clear about the earlier times, only recently did I learn about the existence of the Human Ancestor. Are there other great figures?"

He primarily wanted to understand what kind of role the ’Human Emperor’ played.

But it wasn’t good to say directly; if the existence of the Human Emperor was a secret and he spoke of it, even if Baili Fengzhi wouldn’t harm him, it would still be asking for trouble.

"Master, during my time seeking a breakthrough, I went to look at the books on the Sword Seeking Boat of the Tantian Sect and gained some understanding," Baili Fengzhi said, "Great Yong doesn’t treat the history before it as taboo, but because it’s so ancient, few people know of it. Only in the archives of the Tantian Sect are some of the Human Clan’s historical figures recorded."

Lin Yue immediately listened attentively.

"There are actually very few figures in the history of the Human Clan worth recording in the annals," Baili Fengzhi said softly. "The first is naturally the Human Ancestor, Wu Yan, who not only created Martial Arts but also led the Human Clan to survive in Eternal Night. He was the first torch, the first leader of the Human Clan."

"And the second is a descendant of the Human Ancestor, You Xia, also known as the original Human Emperor," continued Baili Fengzhi.

The Human Emperor?

Lin Yue’s eyes brightened.

Indeed, being called the Human Emperor, he naturally couldn’t be just any insignificant person.

It was only too normal for him to be recorded in history.

"It’s said that in Ancient Times, You Xia was frail and sick from childhood, unable to practice martial arts, and was expelled by the Wu Yan tribe," Baili Fengzhi said. "But You Xia was born with a strong spirit and gradually found a path different from his predecessors. Later, he united many tribes and established Xia Country, becoming the first Human Emperor of the Human Clan."

Lin Yue slightly raised his eyebrows.

The path of the spirit?

Could it be related to the secret about Qi Wanqiu, the Heart Palace Cultivation Method, the legacy of the ancient Human Emperor?

Since the Second Prince had guided Qi Wanqiu, perhaps the Second Prince had also learned the Heart Phase Cultivation Method...

The Second Prince was known to have never acted, shrouded in mystery, seemingly having no Prince as his rival, not even passing the twelve trials for the position of the Eastern Palace.

Moreover, the antidote to the poison of Separation Sorrow inflicted upon Elder Tu, among the four methods provided by the Fourteenth Prince, firmly stated that the Second Prince would surely have the solution, speaking with utmost confidence in the Second Prince.

Mysterious and unfathomable.

Lin Yue pondered thoughtfully.

If he could connect with the Second Prince through the thread of Qi Wanqiu and even establish a relationship, it might be greatly beneficial to him.

"Has the master heard about the origin of the Xiahong?"

Baili Fengzhi was still marveling, "You Xia used Xia as the nation’s name. It’s said that God Emperor once was a citizen of Xia Country, so he established the Xiahong dynasty."

Lin Yue nodded slightly.

He had seen the Imperial Decree written by the God Emperor himself in the Cave Mansion of the Tantian Sect Leader, signed with the Divine Emperor’s name, indeed Xiahong.

So, there is credibility to this legend.

"Later..."

Baili Fengzhi said, "Various Cultivation Methods of the Human Clan flourished, with a multitude of schools contending, ancestors of the Three Religions, six ancestors of the Demon Path emerged in the world. Does master want to hear about them?"

Lin Yue shook his head slightly and said, "We can talk about these slowly later. First, help me think, which of the two Qi sisters should I marry?"

"Eh?" Baili Fengzhi was caught off guard by his leap in thought, paused for a moment, and then said, "Which one does the master like?"

"Neither," Lin Yue shook his head.

"Both Misses Qi are blessed with beauty, and the master likes neither?" Baili Fengzhi asked.

Lin Yue laughed helplessly and said, "It’s not like I only look at the face. Fengzhi, you don’t even show your face, but aren’t you one of this young master’s most beloved generals?"

"... Master need not make jokes at my expense."

Even Baili Fengzhi, with her composure, couldn’t help but feel a bit disturbed, barely maintaining her calm as she said, "Everyone has a first impression, so master could pick based on his gut feeling."

Lin Yue couldn’t help but laugh.

"Actually, I think either would do."
