A single remark awakened the dreamer.
Xu Xiaoshou truly realized that he had "overlooked" Kui Leihan.
This monstrous genius could sit cross-legged in meditation and comprehend a trans-era form of power like Divine Mind Penetration. How could he possibly be content to remain beneath others?
To say nothing else, from the scenes of Kui Leihan's first half of life that Dao Peipei had previously passed on, this fellow had a fierce and unyielding temperament. Even if he had to travel tens of millions of miles, he would bring his enemies down beneath his blade.
Though the three Ancestor Gods were powerful, how could they make Kui Leihan give up? But Xu Xiaoshou could not quite agree with this notion of "look not at the person, but at the weapon."
Overlord was like a tiger gaining wings in Shen Yi's hands, and the Evil Sin Bow complemented Ai Cangsheng perfectly. Dragging out a broken sword like Qingju just to make up the numbers was absurd. And what could the Heaven-Shattering Hammer represent for Kui Leihan?
Even if he had passed the Heaven-Shattering Hammer to Cao Erzhu, how could that be understood as Kui Leihan placing his contingency plan upon his son?
Could it be that Kui Leihan was merely an outward manifestation, while the Heaven-Shattering Hammer was his true body? In other words, Cao Erzhu's father was actually a hammer? "Lecherous Old Daoist, you're being rather roundabout. If there's truly something you want to tell me, you may as well say it plainly."
Yet Dao Qiongchang offered no further explanation. He merely said, "Master Shou, Kui Leihan has hidden his Divine Mind Penetration for so long. Even I do not know much about it."
"You also know that all my deductions and computational ability are founded upon what is already known."
