In Douluo, Already the Pope, Joined the Chat Group

It was also her who entered the Undying Mountain, sitting cross-legged beneath the Enlightenment Tea, where the ancient emperors dared not speak, remaining silent in her presence.

It was also she who stepped into the Immortal Ascension Land of Kunlun, shattering the Immortal Ascension Cauldron with a single palm, suppressing and killing the Immortal Fetus in the Divine Pool with a single thought, and slaying ten thousand Ancestral Dragon heads with a flick of her finger. Transcendent above the world, she ignored the Ginseng Fruit Tree's desire to follow her and drifted away.

She never perished; instead, she lived life after life, creating a miracle of longevity, yet not for the sake of "becoming an immortal," but only to search for one person in the mortal world.

Searching for that weak, small figure—the brother who had once protected her when she was young!

To be honest, for such a stunning, talented, and persistent woman, Qian Xunji admired her immensely, and he would be very happy to welcome such a big shot into the Myriad Worlds Chat Group!

Because she was the very big shot he had been searching for!

The Ruthless Empress, as the most brilliant and talented figure in the Shrouding the Heavens universe—one whose talent and aptitude could hardly be matched even if one were to gaze across the entire river of time in that world—had not only created countless sacred arts and immortal techniques but also possessed innumerable treasures.

For example, the True Dragon Undying Medicine, the Nine Wonders Undying Medicine, the Divine Spring, and so on...

And any one of these things could help him completely recover from his injuries, or even allow him to advance further.

And as long as he could recover his strength, a mere Bibi Dong would be nothing; he could suppress her with a flip of his hand!

He might even be able to make his "good disciple" turn over a new leaf, return to his side, and "make up" with him as if nothing had happened!

Thinking of this, Qian Xunji felt his entire heart burning with heat.

He immediately opened the chat interface without hesitation and began to type.

After all, things like the Undying Medicine or the Divine Spring—even if the Ruthless Empress herself didn't care much for them—would not be easily given to a stranger like him.

To obtain these, he still needed to have a proper conversation with her.

Moreover, so many people in the group had tagged him earlier; if he didn't reply, he would be misunderstood.

Martial Soul Hall Pope: "2010? No, no, no. Although I come from the same place as you, I do not come from the year 2010!"

Qian Xunji did not intend to hide his identity, nor did he plan to imitate the previous group owner by pretending to be omniscient and almighty; that was too exhausting and unreliable.

--Like those chat group trope novels he had read before, they were simply an insult to one's intelligence. The protagonist pretending to be omniscient and almighty was truly laughable. Did they really think everyone else was a fool?

Unless the author forced everyone to lose their intelligence, otherwise, if group members asked random questions like "how old am I" or "where am I now," those protagonists pretending to be omniscient would be left dumbfounded!

Relying on a few novels or anime one had watched to bluff the group members was simply unreliable and would sooner or later lead to a disaster. After all, not all group members were idiots.

Furthermore, spoilers would eventually run out; what would one do then? One couldn't just make things up, right? That would likely lead to being beaten to death sooner or later!

What's more, who could guarantee that other group members who had also watched those anime works wouldn't appear later? Like a transmigrator such as himself? Or perhaps members from worlds where those anime works already existed? Wouldn't the ruse be completely exposed then?

Therefore, rather than relying on knowledge of the plot to pretend to be a prophet or a charlatan, it was better to lay everything out and make honest trades with the group members using what he knew!

Martial Soul Hall Pope: "As for the question this friend asked, I don't mind answering. Inside that was a bowl of medicine, specially brewed for me by my beloved disciple to help treat my injuries. @Sunrise in the East, Invincible."

Sunrise in the East, Invincible: "Medicine? Medicine to treat injuries? That's not right. How could the Great Immortal die just because of a bowl of medicine? Could it be that there was more to that bowl of medicine than meets the eye?"

Poison Girl of Chuyun: "It must have been poisoned, right? Otherwise, there is only one other possibility: that bowl of medicine was too potent and directly killed the previous group owner!"

Martial Soul Hall Pope: "The person above is correct. My beloved disciple is bent on killing me, so she specifically brewed that medicine for me to drink. I really didn't know how to handle it! After all, my injuries are too severe right now, and I am no match for my good disciple. Even though I am not far from becoming a god."

Martial Soul Hall Pope: "Fortunately, just as she was about to feed me the medicine, the chat group appeared. In order to save my life from her hands, I had no choice but to send that bowl of soup, which seemed suspicious no matter how I looked at it, as a red packet."

Martial Soul Hall Pope: "I intended to warn everyone not to open it after sending the red packet, but I didn't expect the group owner to claim it the moment it was sent..."

Watching Qian Xunji's reply, the corners of Dongfang Bai's eyes twitched slightly.

Setting aside why a master like Qian Xunji had fallen to the point of being viewed as an enemy by his own disciple, the mere fact that [Omniscient and Almighty Li Daxian] would casually drink something of unknown origin?

That was incredibly reckless!

Martial Soul Hall Pope: "However, according to my analysis, it should have been a slow-acting poison added to that bowl of soup. After all, many people knew that my disciple was bringing me medicine. If I had dropped dead on the spot, she would never have been able to wash away the suspicion."

Undead Knight: "Slow-acting poison? Then how did the Great Immortal die?"

Poison Girl of Chuyun: "Slow-acting poison is not non-toxic; it just has a slower onset time. However, this applies to those with profound cultivation. For ordinary people, it could potentially lead to immediate death."

Poison Girl of Chuyun: "And according to what this Martial Soul Hall Pope just said, he is not far from becoming a god, so his cultivation must be very profound. The slow-acting poison his disciple used to harm such a figure must be highly unusual. Perhaps such a poison is only slow-acting for someone with his level of cultivation, but for an ordinary person, it is undoubtedly a lethal toxin."

Seeing this, Ning Caichen had gradually begun to understand.

If someone with profound cultivation drank it, it was just a slow-acting poison, but if an ordinary person drank it, they would die. Therefore, [Omniscient and Almighty Li Daxian] must not have had very high cultivation...

However, as far as he knew, the Great Immortal was very skilled at divination, almost to the point of being omniscient and almighty?

Then the question arose: since the Great Immortal was skilled at divination and could even be considered omniscient and almighty, why would he happily open that red packet and drink that bowl of poisoned soup?

It couldn't be that he was tired of living and decided to commit suicide, right?

Perhaps the Great Immortal was not as mysterious and unfathomable as they had imagined; it was even possible that he wasn't as capable as most of the people in the group?!

This answer left Ning Caichen lost in silence...
