After expressing his respect for Fairy Xingyue, Jade Slip Xiao Hua had no choice but to read it through from beginning to end once more, because he truly could not discern any clues from the story!
But when he saw the words, "made me suffer Qi Deviation the instant I obtained an immense secret," his heart stirred!
What divine ability could make a fairy suffer Qi Deviation in an instant? And what tremendous secret had Fairy Xingyue learned that shocked her so greatly? Jade Slip Xiao Hua pondered inwardly. There are many methods of probing secrets: this Xiao's Hand of Cause and Effect, Xu Zhi's divination technique, and even Qingqiu Mountain's secret arts! Xu Zhi only ever mentioned his own divination technique; he never said Fairy Xingyue knew such an art! Still, Fairy Xingyue also said she understood many secret techniques of the Immortal Realm, such as something akin to the Eye of Delusion Breaking. Punishment Palace and Law Enforcement Palace are both renowned institutions in the Immortal Realm. By that reasoning, Fairy Xingyue should also know the secret arts Xu Zhi knew. Of course, it cannot be ruled out that Xu Zhi's divination came from Qingqiu Mountain and Fairy Xingyue did not know it. Yet that possibility is unlikely! A secret art capable of making a fairy suffer Qi Deviation must place tremendous demands upon the physical body. In this Xiao's judgment, it ought to be an immortal art similar to divination! Only such an immortal art could have allowed Fairy Xingyue to learn such an immense secret.
And what secret was it? Was it related to the Three Great Continents? Jade Slip Xiao Hua suppressed his doubts and continued reading. When he reached the words "six tribes," his heart jolted, and he instantly understood something. *Daoism, Confucian cultivators,
