This fox fairy is too inhuman

The blue brick dojo was silent. The young man stood in front of the stone statue with his hands hanging down, and no sound of his breathing could be heard.

The young man did not speak, and the stone statue remained silent, just like an ordinary stone statue covered in dust.

It was not until a faint bell sound was heard from a distant mountain that the eerie atmosphere in the dojo was broken and the sound began to flow again.

【“…”】

Seeing Sikong Yu silent, Ren Yidao shook his head, and finally took the initiative to speak: "I once dreamed of returning to ancient times, walking in the mortal world from the perspective of a bystander, seeing all living things, and also seeing immortals and gods, and finally ascended to the sky, and was fortunate to enter the Heavenly Palace to have a look."

"Along the way, no one noticed me. Even the immortal gods treated me as nothing. Until the end... in front of a big lake, I was discovered by a demon god and escaped from that special state."

"At the end of the dream, He let me go back there again. He wanted to repay me for revealing the secret."

"Later, I woke up from the dream. I had spent a thousand years in that long and bizarre dream, but the reality lasted only a moment."

"At first, I thought those were just absurd dreams, but when I actually went to Zhongzhou to observe and actually saw the same scenes as in my dreams, I was sure that I was not just dreaming."

"Those remaining buildings are real, so the demon god I met must also be real."

“So, the promise He made to me is also true.”

Ren Yidao paused here and waited for a while. Seeing that the stone statue did not respond, he continued, "So, although it was a long time ago, I still happily kept my promise and returned to the big lake... Of course, I did not see the demon god."

"Either I came too late, or He didn't expect me to come back."

"However, I don't think the latter is possible. After all, He deliberately left something to repay me at the bottom of the lake. I thought it was just an ordinary headless Buddha statue, but I didn't expect it to be the corpse of the previous Buddha."

"I thought that after I got the payment, the cause and effect between us were settled, but I didn't expect that there would be a sequel."

He sat directly on the ground, crossed his knees, propped up his chin, and looked lazily at the stone statue that seemed to be avoiding his gaze, and said with a smile:

"When we parted, I never thought we would see each other again."

"However, I never expected that the demon god I was looking for would actually be the leader of my own sect."

"I say, I've said so much, Master, are you going to say a few words?"

【“…”】

The statue was silent.

"Haha, don't worry. Even if you try to make excuses, I won't believe you. I still firmly believe in my own judgment."

【“…”】

Stay silent.

He remained silent for a while... Finally, he could no longer hold back and sighed feebly: […Ah, you little brat, can’t you just let me speak for myself?]

Sikong Yu did not deny Ren Yidao's guess, and chose to admit it when there was no way to avoid it.

But Shihua Lao Deng was very dissatisfied with the way the truth was revealed, and even complained angrily: [“I have been preparing for so long, just waiting to see your reaction. How come you don’t know the rules at all? Do you know how to respect the elderly?!”]

"Then you have to love the young too!"

[“Why are you so childish! You are over a hundred years old, why are you still pretending to be a little fox!”]

Tsk!
You, Old Deng, really know the truth!

Ren Yidao was unwilling to be outdone and immediately fought back: "Although you are old enough, you are disrespectful to your elders. You concealed such an important matter and did not tell me. You do not deserve my respect!"

[“Bah! You are disrespectful to your elders. In all these years, I have never harmed a single disciple. Haven’t they all thrived under my care? Although these guys are a little shy, they are all quite strong, right?”]

"Don't talk so much nonsense, you are just pretending!"

[“Nonsense! What am I pretending to be? I have always been brave enough to take responsibility for my actions!”]

"You even managed to overcome the calamity of becoming an immortal, but ended up being seriously injured and dying! And you still say you're not pretending?" Ren Yidao glanced at the stone statue with a disdainful curl of his lips.

Have you forgotten how you acted back then?

Outsiders don't know that you have such powerful strength, and they are all eyeing our family's assets covetously.

[“You! Cough!”]

When Ren Yidao mentioned the events of the past, Sikong Yu's momentum dropped, but he still fought back stubbornly: ["Ahem, I was showing weakness to the enemy! It's a strategy! Do you understand what a strategy is?"]

"What the hell is this strategy! It's fine if you're just playing dumb, but don't fool your own people! What did my senior sister become like at that time? She even brought the Shinto Bell to massacre the other sect!"

[“I! I, well, I helped back then too! Otherwise, how could she have used the Shinto bell!”]

"Bullshit! I've already asked you. You only released the Shinto bell at that time. It was the other person who did it himself!"

Zhong Ling had a good relationship with Master Luoyue, and for this reason, she took the initiative to help after paying some price. Sikong Yu just didn't stop her.

[“You can’t say that. I also said…”]

"What did you say..."

……

The two of them bickered like elementary school students for a long time, but in the end, neither side said anything to the other.

The Hundred-Year-Old Xiao Deng has never scolded the Ten-Thousand-Year-Old Lao Deng, and no one knows who of these two people is more talented.

After such an intense, intimate and friendly exchange, the two people completely broke the previous awkward situation in a strange way.

Respect for superiors and subordinates? Respect for teachers?
Stop talking about that, it's useless.

Who cares?

In a word, that’s enough.

After the quarrel, both of them relaxed.

After drinking some water to moisten his throat, Ren Yidao let out a long breath and said with emotion: "I never thought that you, the demon god, have been by my side for a long time."

The crowd looked for him thousands of times, but suddenly looking back, he found that person in a dimly lit place.

No matter how hard you try, you won't be able to find anything, and it won't take any effort at all!
This is really like riding a donkey to look for a donkey!
"I never expected that you had already discovered me... I say, you have been keeping silent all this time, isn't that a bit too much?"

You old thing, are you gonna say a word?

Talking about this, Sikong Yu smiled proudly and said leisurely: [“Haha, I knew your true identity as a little fox very early, but I knew you were the person back then, not long ago.”]

Yes, in fact, from the moment Ren Yidao was brought back to the mountain gate by Jing Yueqin, he had been exposed.

Under the gaze of a demon god, his disguise was completely exposed, but Sikong Laodeng had never exposed it.

He is a demon god, so he naturally has no ill will towards the demon race, so he lets Ren Yidao play around in the sect.

Even Jing Yaoyue, who had lost all her power that year, was clearly seen by Him, and He tacitly agreed to her restoration.

Bad news, there is a demon traitor in the sect!

Good news, the traitor is the leader, the most capable and most experienced one!
Sikong Yu couldn't tell when Ren Yidao was a fox demon, and he didn't pay much attention to him. Even after Ren Yidao transformed into a human, He didn't care.

It was not until Ren Yidao came down to choose a route that He actually took notice of this little fox that was raised in the sect.

Wait, why does this little guy look so much like that kid back then?
"The choice of the path for the gods to descend is still a suspicion, but the real confirmation will come when they use my body to suppress those evil spirits?"

【“Yes.”】

When Sikong Yu took control of Ren Yidao's body, He had already figured out all of his cards, and also sensed the faint aura of the Eternal Walker hidden deep in his sea of ​​consciousness.

It’s this guy!
[“What about you? When did you find out?”] Sikong Yu was quite curious about this. He clearly felt that his disguise was flawless and he had kept it a secret for so long.

What happened during Ren Yidao's trip? How come his disguise was suddenly seen through?

"I just found out about it, too." Ren Yidao knew that if he didn't explain clearly, he would probably be locked up here by Old Deng today, so he had no choice but to confess the truth.

"When we were in the Western Desert before, you came too quickly."

All the immortals and gods were watching, except for this old Deng who came faster than anyone else and didn't worry about anything going wrong.

Is he confident that the demon Buddha will not attack him? Or is he confident in his own strength?
Or...both?
【“Ah… just this?”】

"Of course it's not that simple, but this is the most crucial evidence."

Sikong Yu was very dissatisfied with this speculation and complained: [“What you said, can’t I be a teacher who cares about the younger generation?”]

"You may be, but I don't believe it."

"Besides, you revealed something when you came here. It's obvious that you know the identity of the Demon Buddha."

[“Ah, so this is what’s exposed.”]

Other immortals and gods all regarded the Demon Buddha as a great demon, and no one knew his true identity. However, Sikong Yu wanted to remind them to find out who they were.

"I don't know much about the grudges between the Buddha and the Buddhist sect, but I am sure of one thing - being able to snatch the Buddha's body from those people is probably not something that an ordinary person can do, especially since "He" is most likely in Heaven. The identity of the person who did it can be further narrowed down."

"The identity of the person who took action... is either so high that the Buddhist sect doesn't care, or there is a reason why he must take action."

"That demon god who saw some kind of future in me probably meets the latter condition. In order to achieve a specific condition, he made such an unpredictable move."

"So, with all the evidence combined, there is only one truth!"

"You are the demon god from that year!"

After Ren Yidao finished speaking, Sikong Yu sighed deeply and muttered resignedly: […Tsk, it was almost there. I should have said it earlier.]

Lao Deng regretted it very much.

Why did I have to act mysterious at that time? Why didn’t I just say it directly?
Now, look what happened. I failed to show off my strength and the good situation was taken away by someone else.

Hateful——

However, although he was unhappy, he was not that dissatisfied.

Sikong Yu has been hiding for too long, so long that even he himself almost regards the past as a dream.

Now that his past has been revealed, He is actually happier than anything else.

"Okay, you know my story, what about yours? You won't avoid talking about it, will you?"

Ren Yidao's voice was calm and casual, as if he was chatting casually with a friend.

I've finished speaking here, now it's your turn.

story?

Oh yes, it’s my turn to tell the story.

Sikong Yu finally came back to his senses and chuckled: [“Haha, my stories, my stories… there are so many of them.”]

"Then you have to make your story short. I don't have time to listen to you talk about how round the moon was thousands of years ago."

[“Haha, you are such a stubborn kid. Fine, I’ll make it short.”]

Sikong Yu laughed and scolded, not minding his casualness. [“Yidao, before I tell you, I have to ask you a question first… Do you know what Sikong means?”]

Sikong?

He asked about the origin of this surname?
According to Ren Yidao's memory from his previous life, Sikong was the title of an official in ancient China.

Shaohao's tribe appointed Mingjiu as Sikong. "Shangshu Shundian" records that Shun set up nine officials in the tribal alliance council, one of whom was Sikong, held by Yu, who was in charge of "leveling water and wood", that is, in charge of water conservancy.

In "Zhou Li", Sikong was the "Winter Official" among the six officials, in charge of civil engineering and water conservancy construction.

During the Han Dynasty, they were collectively called the Three Dukes together with the Grand Commandant and the Minister of Civil Affairs.

This seems to have been a very important official position in all dynasties.

Moreover, it always feels like an official position related to civil engineering...

Could it be that when he was in heaven, he was actually Brother Tumu?

After thinking for a while, Ren Yidao decided not to interrupt Sikong Yu when he was lost in his nostalgia. He honestly followed the conversation and asked, "Master, what do you mean?"

This is definitely not because we are afraid that Lao Deng will be really angry, it is just out of care for the elderly.

Sikong Yu didn't think about where Ren Yidao's thoughts could drift to. He brewed up abundant emotions and said slowly:

[“Si” means to be in charge.]

【“空” refers to the sky.】

At this moment, the stone statue of Sikong Yu slowly raised its head and the accumulated dust on its body began to fall off.

At the same time, this world seemed to be responding.

The blue brick dojo began to shake, and the news soon spread to the outside world, and the mountains of the Shinto sect shook.

The nine main peaks all felt this shock, and countless people were awakened from their retreat.

earthquake?

Or an enemy attack?
thump—

Just when people were in panic, the Shinto bell made a slight sound, which instantly echoed throughout the sect.

"Everything is fine, don't worry."

The ringing of the bell calmed the uneasiness in everyone's hearts, and they finally felt relieved and returned to their caves one by one.

But even so, they looked at the ground in awe and saw the cracks caused by the vibrations.

What happened?
Could it be that some elder made the noise when he came out of retreat?
……

And in the blue brick dojo where everything originated, Ren Yidao squinted his eyes and felt the roar that shook the sky and the earth.

He heard the sound.

It was not the previous soul transmission, but a huge roar coming from underground.

[“When I was in heaven, I was the god in charge of the sky.”]

He said:

[“I am…”]

[“God!”] (End of this chapter)
