Yu Zhiwen had prepared meticulously for this mission. She had considered how to break the array, communicate secretly under the demi-saint's Divine Array, and the consequences of betraying the Holy Divine Palace. She even thought about how to handle Dao Xuanji's wrath, the situation in Changde Town, and the mysteries surrounding Cao's Blacksmith Shop.
During her preparations, she came across a seemingly insignificant piece of information: Kui Leihan, a great figure in the Holy Divine Palace, had a son and daughter. His daughter had passed away at birth, while his son, named Erzhu, was said to be ordinary.
"Cao Erzhu… Kui Leihan's son?"
Yu Zhiwen's face turned pale as realization struck. Cao Erzhu was right here, at Qingyuan Mountain. Her heart raced as she recalled seeing a note with the name "Xu Xiaoshou" written on it. She had been inexplicably sent to Qingyuan Mountain to set up the Thirty-Three Heavens Star Weaving Array. Was this all a trap?
If Xu Xiaoshou never came, it would be fine. But if he did, and he wasn't aligned with the Saint Servants, he would inevitably arrive at Qingyuan Mountain.
Had Hallmaster Dao foreseen all of this? His relentless pursuit of Xu Xiaoshou, his efforts to scour the city—all of it might have been mere theatrics. Had he been chasing after Xu Xiaoshou all along, knowing his final destination?
"And now, am I weaving the final dragnet to capture Xu Xiaoshou?" Yu Zhiwen's pupils dilated with fear.
She couldn't believe she hadn't thought of this sooner. Hallmaster Dao's expertise in the Divine Secret Arm and his cryptic remarks suddenly made sense.
"Xu Xiaoshou's masterpiece, the distance between Heaven and Earth." That was the Divine Puppet's arm! Hallmaster Dao had used Xu Xiaoshou's own creation to obscure her thoughts and redirect her focus, making her unwittingly bury Xu Xiaoshou deeper in this trap.
A cold, creeping dread washed over Yu Zhiwen. She didn't want to believe that Hallmaster Dao had calculated everything so perfectly, exploiting human nature so effortlessly. But no matter how she tried to convince herself otherwise, the truth was undeniable.
A wave of loathing surged within her as she gazed upon the great array she had just created. The once-beautiful scenery of Qingyuan Mountain now felt suffocating. A dark thought crossed her mind—what if she destroyed the array? What if she razed the mountain to the ground? Even if Xu Xiaoshou came, he would find only ruins. In that scenario, Hallmaster Dao's control might be severed.
But even as this thought took root, Yu Zhiwen knew it was futile. Hallmaster Dao was always several steps ahead. He might have anticipated her realization and prepared accordingly. If she tried to disrupt his plans, she could not predict what his next move would be.
Her fear of Dao Qiongcang had always been immense, but now it reached a new level. She understood the depths of his intellect, his terrifying ability to manipulate events from the shadows. This filled her with despair.
As her mind raced, her Pearl Gem Star Eyes locked onto the figure of the burly man in the distance—Cao Erzhu. A sudden spiritual light ignited in her mind.
"A variable!" she thought, her heart skipping a beat.
In the realm of Divine Sorcery, variables were the greatest source of fear. Hallmaster Dao's schemes were airtight, but perhaps Cao Erzhu, this seemingly ordinary man, could be the variable she needed. There was something pure about him, something that defied her expectations. Could he be the key to breaking the situation if Xu Xiaoshou fell into danger?
With this thought, Yu Zhiwen steadied herself. She had to act quickly. She finished constructing the great array and flew toward the figure of Cao Erzhu, who had disappeared from sight.
"Brother Cao, please wait!" she called out urgently. "Xu Xiaoshou is in great danger!"
