Too much fruit

Chapter 973: The Figure in the Fairy Light
"impossible!"

As if a bolt of lightning had struck him, Shen Hou staggered and shouted, "I don't believe it! I want to see the emperor! I want to see my senior brother!"

Just when he was about to get out of the hard times, he ended up having to be an undercover agent again. How could Shen Hou be willing to do that?

"The master has something else to do, so he had to send me here. As for your Senior Brother Guangcheng..."

Xiaotian's dog face vividly showed subtle emotions, "Brother Ling said, listen to the emperor, and now my master's strength has improved by leaps and bounds. Even if the Great Venerable is stationed overseas, it will certainly be difficult for him to defeat my master. Within three years, the Great Venerable will be defeated, and then you can come back."

The words were very sincere, but the expression on the dog's face was a little subtle, and it felt like the dog was laughing at the joke, which greatly reduced the power of the words.

in addition······
"Another three years?"

Shen Hou's expression was almost out of control. "At first they said it would take three years, then another three years, and then another three years. After three years, I'll go there after hiding here. I've become a slave to three families. Tell me, when will this end?"

"Well..." Xiaotian scratched his neck with his hind legs, thought for a moment, and said, "Master is almost invincible. It should be soon. This time it doesn't even have to take three years."

The Heavenly Lord has been defeated. If the Great Lord is also dead, I guess the only place I can go undercover in is the Fire House Buddha Prison.

The Buddhist Prison does not accept Taoist priests with big noses. Shen Hou feels that even if he wants to join them, Karma Tathagata will not accept him.

The legendary demon ancestor Poxun is of the same mind as all living beings and can see into their hearts. Now that Karma Tathagata has accommodated Poxun's Dao fruit, he should also possess Dao fruit supernatural powers related to the heart. I'm afraid that Shen Hou, the undercover, will be exposed as soon as he sees him.

Thinking about it this way, it seems that this is indeed Shen Hou’s last time undercover.

His face lightened up a bit, finally seeing the end, but he still said unwillingly: "I feel that this spy thing is unnecessary. The defeat of the Heavenly King this time was all due to the divine power of our emperor, who killed the Heavenly King. I can say that I have not made any contribution, which shows that I have no talent in this area."

Since entering the service of the Heavenly Sovereign, Shen Hou has been doing his job honestly. He first subdued the gods of various places with the Divine Whip, so that their Dao Fruits were no longer suppressed by the royal family, and then he presided over the Heavenly Sovereign's promotion ceremony.

How do you think he is lurking?

That's indeed good. The Emperor of Heaven has never doubted Lord Shen.

But that’s where the good things end.

Shen Hou had been lurking for so long and had not reported any information at all because Jiang Li did not contact him at all.

On the surface, Shen Hou had no influence on the outcome of this war and had no credit. At most, he had made some hard work.

Therefore, Shen Hou hoped to use this as an excuse to return to his clan and sect.

but--

"Shen Hou, you have to believe in yourself."

Xiaotian said earnestly: "Even if you don't believe in yourself, you have to believe in the vision of my master and Senior Brother Ling. Since they think you need to continue to lurk, it means that you are indispensable. You don't understand what role you play because you are not at the master's level. You can't understand it now, but you will understand it sooner or later."

"I feel like you are fooling me," Shen Hou said suspiciously, "Do you understand what the emperor means?"

"I'm just a dog, how can I understand?" Xiaotian complained.

"Then why are you so sure of this?"

“It’s a dog’s duty to trust his master.”

Shen Hou felt that he was being stupid. Why did he talk to a dog for so long? The dog couldn't make the decision. It was just a messenger. Even if he could persuade the dog with his eloquence, he couldn't change the decision of the emperor and his senior brother.

Shen Hou now had reason to suspect that the two men had the intention of forcing such a dog to come to see him instead of coming in person.

'Has the emperor become superstitious again?'

Shen Hou had reason to suspect that Jiang Li was being superstitious again. He thought that it was his bad luck that ruined the fortune of the Emperor of Heaven, which was why he was forced to continue to be undercover.

With so many thoughts in his mind, Shen Hou could only sigh helplessly and said weakly: "Forget it, you go back. Tell the emperor and my senior brother what I said. I am really not suitable to continue hiding. I am already a slave of three surnames. Even if I surrender to the Great Venerable, he will not trust me."

Now, I just hope that they can withdraw the order.

"clear."

Xiaotian nodded repeatedly, then raised his front legs and pushed them forward like a human hand. Shen Hou felt as if he was falling from a height. When that special feeling disappeared, the separated consciousness had returned to the body.

Not far away, under a large rock overlooking the sea, a red puppy poked its head out of the shadows, glanced furtively at the clouds in the sky, then swam silently into the water and quietly left.

Shen Hou sat in meditation in a sheltered place as if nothing had happened, concentrating his mind and calming his breath, recovering his strength.

At the same time, in the sea of ​​clouds in the sky, the Fairy Queen showed a rare bit of awe as she looked towards the fairy light in front of her.

The light emanated from the plain-colored cloud flag, clear and pure, with a vague figure faintly visible within it.

A gentle and majestic voice, like the sound of imperial edict, came out from the immortal light, "The original owner of the Dao Fruit that this person, Lord Shen, holds was once blessed with a destiny, but also suffered bad luck because of it. This person can accomplish things, but he can also do harm. You need to be more careful when using this person."

"Bad luck?" The Fairy Queen frowned. "Is there really any destiny?"

As a third-grade expert, the Immortal Queen certainly didn't believe in destiny. According to her understanding, when one reaches the realm of the strongest, one can even grasp the ups and downs of the Dao Fruit and one's own cause and effect. Even if one is really unlucky, one can completely block it with the powerful inner luck brought by strength.

But seeing these words coming from the person in front of her, she had no choice but to believe them.

"Of course there is no destiny, otherwise we gods would not have fallen."

The man chuckled in the fairy light and pointed out, "So-called bad luck is the bad luck that is not good for one's own destiny. Those with strong destiny are either very powerful or have the support of the masses. Both of these can keep all kinds of bad luck out and prevent themselves from being harmed by bad luck."

"And Shen Hou is able to absorb this bad luck, but he is not affected by it. Wherever he goes, the bad luck is absorbed, making others feel clear-minded and instinctively feel good about him. However, when bad luck accumulates to a certain extent, it can also affect the strong destiny, and occasionally affect the mind. If the mind is affected, how can it not be unlucky?"

"Is this where the Heavenly Emperor was defeated?" The Immortal Queen frowned, murderous intent already evident in her heart.

If the Heavenly Sovereign was affected, then the Fairy Queen would most likely be affected as well. Of course, the Fairy Queen would not allow such a threat to survive.

"It's just a Dao Fruit, not as good as the original owner's. At most, the Heavenly Monarch has been tainted with a little bad luck because of it, but it's far from affecting his mind."

The figure in the fairy light said: "But if Shen Hou really accumulates enough bad luck, it may not necessarily affect the third rank. Since you don't want to be inferior to others, you can use Shen Hou for a little. If you can obtain the Nuwa Emperor Dao Fruit, I am not incapable of helping you advance to the second rank."

The Fairy Queen had no expression on her face when she heard this, but her tightly furrowed brows relaxed slightly, indicating that she was indeed interested.

Standing on the side of the Great Master is forced by the situation. If possible, the Fairy Queen would prefer to make the decision herself.
