Chapter 5589: Karmic Thread

"Alright." Ye Miaoyin nodded and looked at Xiao Xuan, Xiao Li, Xiao Qing, and the others. "From now on, you all must be obedient and not cause trouble for your father, understood?"

"Understood, Eldest Aunt."

"Understood, Mother."

"Understood, Auntie."

"That's good…" Ye Miaoyin nodded.

"Hehe… Don't worry, Mother! I won't cause trouble either…" Wang Teng nodded, his face black and blue.

Ye Miaoyin: "…"

Everyone: "…"

Before everyone set off, Xiao Fan left for a moment. He went to see the Saint Evil Venerable to ask about the Ancient Interpretation of the Primitive Sutra.

At this moment, the Saint Evil Venerable was bound by chains of the Power of the Mortal Immortal, which sealed his strength at all times.

"Saint Evil Venerable, what exactly is the origin of the Ancient Interpretation of the Primitive Sutra?" Xiao Fan asked in a deep voice.

"The Ancient Interpretation of the Primitive Sutra? Hehehe… Why are you asking about that? Could it be… something has gone wrong?" The Saint Evil Venerable's eyes darted around as he guessed something.

"Hehe… To be honest, something interesting has indeed happened, so I came to ask you." Xiao Fan sat before the Saint Evil Venerable and told him about the man made of light and shadow.

"Light and shadow? Perhaps. The Ancient Interpretation of the Primitive Sutra is very powerful and very… wicked." The Saint Evil Venerable nodded.

"The Stone Tablet of the Ancient Interpretation of the Primitive Sutra was obtained by the Three Ancient Ancestors from the Outer Realm Battlefield. Is there any hidden story behind it? While the Stone Tablet was in your hands… did anything unusual ever happen?!" Xiao Fan asked.

"Unusual? It has… but it was nothing serious. After all, with the Seal of the Three Ancient Ancestors, the Ancient Interpretation of the Primitive Sutra couldn't escape." The Saint Evil Venerable spoke indifferently.

"Seal? What happened to the Seal afterward?!" Xiao Fan was startled.

"Hehehe… The moment I was defeated, I released all the Seals, naturally including the Seal on the Ancient Interpretation of the Primitive Sutra…" The Saint Evil Venerable was very frank as he explained everything.

Xiao Fan: "…"

Hearing this, Xiao Fan was silent for a long while before speaking slowly, "You're saying… the reason the Ancient Interpretation of the Primitive Sutra escaped was all because you released the Seal?"

"Exactly." The Saint Evil Venerable nodded. "Don't be angry; after all… I was defeated then."

Xiao Fan sighed deeply and shook his head helplessly.

Asking himself, if Xiao Fan were the Saint Evil Venerable—defeated and about to become a prisoner—he would likely have done the same thing.

"Saint Evil Venerable, oh Saint Evil Venerable! You… really know how to cause trouble for others…" Xiao Fan sighed, standing up to leave.

He didn't blame the Saint Evil Venerable for this; after all, the Saint Evil Venerable hadn't yielded at that time.

Watching Xiao Fan leave, the Saint Evil Venerable shook his head without saying more.

…

After seeing the Saint Evil Venerable, Xiao Fan left with Xiao Xuan, Xiao Li, Xiao Qing, and Wang Teng.

Xiao Xuan asked Xie Lingqing if she wanted to come along, but Xie Lingqing refused.

"Dad! Where are we going first?!" Xiao Qing asked.

"Where first? Lier, where was the place you fought the Ancient Interpretation of the Primitive Sutra?" Xiao Fan asked.

"Alright! I'll lead the way!" Xiao Li nodded heavily and led Xiao Fan and the others there.

After arriving at the destination, Xiao Fan exhaled and performed a Technique of Karma to trace the historical footprints of the past.

A moment later, Xiao Fan saw the Fire Lizard taking action here, as well as that mysterious figure of light and shadow…

"This aura… it's indeed not simple…" The corners of Xiao Fan's mouth curled up, and he licked his lips.

"Dad! What did you find?" Xiao Xuan asked.

"Hehehe… This Ancient Interpretation of the Primitive Sutra is indeed a great treasure." Xiao Fan rubbed his hands together, looking excited.

"Dad, what do you mean?" Xiao Qing asked.

"A scripture that can take form and has reached the Ancient Emperor Realm! How terrifying is this scripture?!"

"Then how do we find him? If he hides…"

"Hehehe… You three remember, everything in this world has a solution… even if it's a scripture at the Ancient Emperor Realm, it can still be found."

Xiao Fan formed hand Seals, and a dense Power of the Mortal Immortal emanated from his body.

The Power of the Mortal Immortal activated the Power of Causality, and a strange red thread appeared out of thin air.

Seeing the red thread, Xiao Xuan, Xiao Li, and Xiao Qing were all stunned and looked along the thread…

The red thread stretched endlessly, seemingly piercing through the sky and spanning across Domains…

"Dad, what is this?!" they asked curiously.

"Hehe… It's a Karmic Thread, the Karma between Lier and the Ancient Interpretation of the Primitive Sutra." Xiao Fan smiled.
