"Stay and take a look," Danchan Clone said kindly. "I think we share the same ideals. You're just not good at guiding or managing others. When I look at these lonely, helpless races, I think of my own people—those Special Lifeforms. Fortunately, they were born powerful.

"I'd be glad if we could build a peaceful territory together. It might not be large or powerful, but it would give a group of lives a place to settle in this universe. I've heard your story. If you insist, I'll leave too."

Danchan Clone pointed to a spot in the ancient forest, where stood statues he had carved on a whim while comprehending the Dao. Every one of them contained some understanding of the Dao, ranging from ordinary Secret Methods to peak Secret Methods. More than a dozen were inspired by stories he'd heard from those races, and bore a striking resemblance to the Legless Crocodile Beast from the stories about Three-Eyed Golden Pupil.

Piaoleng Walker merely glanced over, but his expression changed.

"No wonder people call you a Sage. I'll go see whether you've treated them well." Piaoleng Walker actually fled the ancient forest, though he didn't leave the territory. "By the way, I'm Piaoleng Walker."

"I was born without a name, but they've kindly chosen to call me Sage Xuanfeng." Danchan Clone's voice followed him.
