Chapter 2549: Halfway Surrender?

“Even if the Heavenly Dao Ball that controls the Heavenly Dao has already collapsed… The world still seems full of malice towards me,” The Celestial Thearch self-mockingly said.
She had gone through great lengths to deceive Song Shuhang and keep him unaware of the impending arrival of the ‘mysterious island,’ while even relocating him and Soft Feather away.
To prevent any potential mishaps, she had also imposed a fifteen-day block on Song Shuhang.
However, fate had other plans as the malicious world managed to overtake
Song Shuhang. It revealed the news that the ‘mysterious island’ was about to appear at the location of Spirit Butterfly Island, through various intermediaries.
The Celestial Thearch massaged her temple in frustration.
Knowing Song Shuhangs penchant for getting involved in trouble, if he were to meddle in the ‘mysterious island’ incident, she shuddered to think of how her carefully laid plans might unravel.
But there was still about a day left before the ideal time she had calculated for landing on the island…
Unbeknownst to her, Song Shuhang had already mastered the “True Heavenly Pengs Escape Technique,” and his proficiency in escape techniques had been greatly enhanced. Now, he could travel back and forth between Wenzhou City and Spirit Butterfly Island as effortlessly as taking an elevator.
“Since Song Shuhang has already uncovered the information about the mysterious island, I have to find a way to divert his attention,” The Celestial Thearch pondered while tapping her fingers lightly on the table.
A few moments later… The Celestial Thearch’s consciousness entered her cultivation chat friend list and reached out to Song Shuhang.
[Ding Your ‘rogue friend’ Celestial Thearch has remotely sent you a drop of energy today. P.S.: Senior Song, here’s your daily energy share
After several days, Song Shuhang once again received 1 point of energy from the Celestial Thearch.
At the same time, the Celestial Thearch removed the information blockade.
Song Shuhang immediately figured it out—the person who had used Sage Monarch Spirit Butterfly’s account in the Nine Provinces Number One Group was most likely the Celestial Thearch!
“Senior Song, it’s been a few days since we last met.” The Celestial Thearch spoke first.
A faint smile played on the corners of Song Shuhangs mouth. He felt like he had caught the Celestial Thearch’s tail: “The mysterious island, right? You’ve known about the mysterious island’s passage through Spirit Butterfly Island, haven’t you? And if I’m not mistaken, you’re planning to land on the island at a specific time. That’s why you need to wait on Spirit Butterfly Island for an opportunity, rather than going directly to the mysterious island after we leave.’
“Yes, Senior Song. You’ve guessed correctly… It seems your once-troubled brain has finally returned to normal. Congratulations,” The Celestial Thearch replied calmly.
At the same time, she felt the world’s malice once again.
“So, are you contacting me to prevent me from landing on the island?” Song Shuhang asked again.
Could it be that the Celestial Thearch was actually considering a ‘memory wipe’ for him?
“Of course not! Whether anyone wants to go to the island or not, I won’t stop them. Whether you want to go to the island or not, the mysterious island is still there.” The Celestial Thearch’s tone remained emotionless.
After some contemplation, Song Shuhang replied, “In that case, I’m definitely going to the mysterious island!”
“Then I’ll be waiting for you on Spirit Butterfly Island,” The Celestial Thearch smiled and murmured. At the same time, she retrieved a book written in the Kingese language and gently flipped through its pages.
A few moments later, she turned to the page containing information on ‘Evil and Extravagance.’
The best way to divert Song Shuhangs attention was to divert the trouble. The Celestial Thearch’s slender fingers moved across the pages of the Kingese Book, and a smile curled at her lips.
A fellow cultivator might die, but a poor one would die!
Song Shuhang was left speechless.
The calmer the Celestial Thearch appeared, the more he felt there was a conspiracy at play.
As White Dragon had suggested, the Dao of Time was the most enigmatic Dao in the universe. Offending someone who had mastery over the Dao of Time could lead to one’s demise without even comprehending how.
From their conversation, it seemed that the Celestial Thearch was resolute about the mysterious island.
So… should I consider playing it safe?
Song Shuhang contemplated.
A real man could adapt and be flexible, not rush headlong into every situation.
At this moment, Soft Feather couldn’t help but inquire, “Senior Song, what are you thinking about?”
Song Shuhang had been lost in thought for quite some time.
“I’m fine. I was engaged in a verbal spar with a big shot in the ‘Cultivation Chat’ function just now,” Song Shuhang replied.
“And then?” Soft Feather asked.
“Then, I’m currently wondering whether I should be cautious,” Song Shuhang said seriously.
Pavilion Master Chu’s hair quivered in surprise. She stretched her hair and pressed it against Song Shuhangs forehead to check his temperature.
After a moment, Pavilion Master Chu asked in bewilderment, “Huh? No fever! Who was the other party? They actually made you think of caution before any contact? Could it be Hegemon White from the Netherworld?”
“It’s the Celestial Thearch,” Song Shuhang replied. At the same time, he made up his mind. He couldn’t be overly cautious, but he also couldn’t act recklessly. Therefore, he decided to be half-cautious and half-bold.
Soft Feather blinked her eyes and asked, “Half-cautious? Is that the word?’” “It’s not a wordplay; it’s a physical strategy,” Song Shuhang explained.
He decided that he would split himself in half when the time came, with one half going to the mysterious island and the other half remaining in the main world. Since he had learned the technique to split himself, Song Shuhang had become quite proficient at it.
The White Dragon was at a loss for words.
“Shuhang, be careful this time. Don’t go overboard again,” Su Clan’s Sixteen cautioned.
“Don’t worry,” Song Shuhang nodded. “1 have experience this time, so I won’t easily make mistakes. Moreover, Spirit Butterfly Island wasn’t too far from Wenzhou City. I’ll use the Heavenly Peng Escape Technique to go there and keep a lookout near Spirit Butterfly Island in case of any emergencies.”
After that, he could travel back and forth between Spirit Butterfly Island and Wenzhou City more conveniently than taking an elevator.
“Then, shall we continue farming Evil Fantasy?” Soft Feather asked.
“Of course! When the time comes, I can leave half of my body behind to cooperate with everyone. Also, we have to find an opportunity to expose the Limitless Demon Sect’s plans,” Song Shuhang said with a nod.
Having said all this, Song Shuhang stretched out his hand and used it as a blade. He flung out the Heaven Burning Flaming Saber Technique on Demon Monarch Anzhi’s body.
The undying flames burned Demon Monarch Anzhi!s body to ashes.
On the side, Young Master Hai r s incarnation was still entangled in his inner demons and was not awake.
“Oh right… Big Sister White Dragon, Senior Chu, do you have a spell like the ‘Soul Searching Spell’ that can forcefully read the information in Young Master Hai r s avatar’s mind?” Song Shuhang suddenly asked.
“l have a similar method, but the Young Master Hai in your hand is only an incarnation… After the connection between the avatar and the main body was severed, the avatar probably no longer has any useful information in its mind,” the White Dragon replied..
