Pretending To Be A Boss

Tang Xian was actually a bit nervous.

Previously, when facing Bai Shuang, he thought he was about to get the answers to his questions and became very tense.

But Bai Shuang was unpredictable and he could do nothing. Reluctantly, he had to give up.

However, the Undying Xuan Bird was different. Bai Shuang clearly didn't want to talk, so she gave him the Nether Phoenix feather. This was tantamount to indicating that the Undying Xuan Bird might know more secrets.

He vaguely remembered the Ancient Long-Eared Ape mentioning the Beast Codex, which the Xuan Bird might have seen.

"Tell me everything you know about the six great divine beasts, and don't hide anything. As for the whereabouts of this feather, in exchange, I will tell you where I got it from,"

Based on what the Xuan Bird had just said, Tang Xian had a vague guess about the relationship between Bai Shuang and the Xuan Bird.

The Xuan Bird's eyes were still fixed on the black feather, filled with devotion. That was its true master, but unfortunately, the master had died hundreds of years ago, and it had not found the body.

It didn't remain silent and spoke slowly:

"Among the six great divine beasts, the one with the largest domain is the Sea Soul Beast, also the Sea God. In the court's speculation, you should have already encountered the Sea God, because there are animals that indicate you came from the south, crossing the Ashen Sea."

"Yes, and I am not afraid to tell you, the properties of the Sea God are as good as mine,"

The Xuan Bird was not surprised at all. Being captured had already proven this man's formidable power, which should not be estimated by common sense.

"If Eden is considered, it would probably be the seventh divine beast. This means you have already inherited the power of two great divine beasts."

"Inheritance? I can't tell you the reason for obtaining the power of Eden, but from what you're suggesting, the power of other divine beasts can be obtained too?"

What Tang Xian did not mention was that he had not received any inheritance.

His parents had acquired the power of Eden, but as for the Sea God, he had taken the Sea God's power through his own means.

It wasn't exactly taken, more like riding on its coattails.

But the inheritance of the power of the Sea God, this concept that sounded extremely fantastic, Tang Xian hadn't even seen it.

He suddenly thought of that huge furnace.

When he first met Tang Feiji, Tang Feiji was guarding inside that furnace—but was it really a furnace?

Or an entrance?

"Seems like I should take some time to explore the deep sea again."

Thinking this way, Tang Xian did not speak but continued:

"Continue with your topic. What about the next divine beast? I know about the Sea God. Tell me about your master, the Nether Phoenix."

"The god of life and death, controlling the order of the Netherworld. Any creature that enters Spiritual Purgatory will be commanded by my master. My power is too weak to control you. You sent a monster into my domain. I am powerless against it, but if it were my master, it could easily disassemble it into wandering souls."

When it came to the Nether Phoenix, the Xuan Bird still showed a sense of protecting its master. After all, it had been beaten in its most prideful domain not long ago, and it wanted to regain some face for the Netherworld.

Tang Xian found it amusing and said:

"Let me correct you. It wasn't me who sent a monster into your domain; it was you who pulled our family's monster into your domain."

This scene was quite similar to when he faced the Siren.

The Siren thought it could defeat him in dreams. The Xuan Bird also thought it would be invincible in Spiritual Purgatory.

But Tang Xian was a wicked farmer, and Tang was the wicked guest.

The Xuan Bird didn't take up the banter. Otherwise, this topic could not be discussed, so it continued:

"My master is known as the God of Death, the Nether King, the supreme being of the Netherworld that governs the cycle of life and death among the six great divine beasts."

"Enough, enough, stop your commercial glorification. Tell me about the Nether King. Besides having an invincible domain, what else is there? Although its body is missing, has it left behind any inheritance?"

"I… don't know. Even if I did, I wouldn't tell you."

Current honesty level 55.

There was almost no chance that it was lying. Tang Xian nodded slightly and did not pursue the matter further.

"I'm just asking. Do you really think I'm coveting some power inheritance of your master? I, Tang Xian, am made of iron and steel, and I'm not interested."

Bai Mansheng: ...

Yuan Wu: ...

Tang Xiaojiu: ...

"Can the three of you look a bit more natural? I'm interrogating a prisoner here. Continue, although it seems you don't know much. Even about your own master, the Nether Phoenix, you know so little, so I guess you know even less about the other divine beasts."

The Xuan Bird was after all from the Analysis Faction and was not baited by Tang Xian's provocation. But since the topic had already been opened and it was very likely that this person had received the inheritance of two families, its attitude towards Tang Xian began to change.

If it weren't for its wings being penetrated by ice crystals and there being a monster residing in Spiritual Purgatory, this conversation could have been more dignified.

"Beyond my master, there's another divine beast that matches up with her, the Master of Space-Time. It doesn't have a beast name, but my master was on good terms with it and called it the Milky Way."

Tang Xian raised his eyebrows.

The God of Time and Space.

This could be the same as the one Bai Shuang was guarding—the white deer with the powerful ability to control space, and the person behind her seemed to have the ability to change the time trajectory of things. The cycle of Baichuan City was derived from this.

Throughout history, anything related to time and space has always been game-breaking.

But, faced with Bai Shuang's carefree demeanor, since he, Tang Xian, was of iron and steel, he decidedly wouldn't indulge in that pursuit.
