Nan Zhi's eyes widened, and she didn't make any move for a long time after hearing these heroic words.
Just when Ye Taotao thought she agreed with his words, she suddenly saw Nan Zhi burst out laughing, holding her stomach and bending down, almost crying.
"Hahaha, hahaha, it's really a child's talk." Nan Zhi didn't believe what Ye Taotao said, and just regarded it as an innocent joke of a child.
Ye Taotao couldn't help but secretly clenched her fists and pursed her lips.
"I'm not joking, I really think so!" Ye Taotao retorted seriously.
The smile on Nan Zhi's face slowly faded away. Gradually, she seemed to be infected by Ye Taotao's serious mood, and a trace of solemnity appeared on her face.
"Do you really think so?" Nan Zhi said solemnly, "You are still so young, do you know that no one has ever said such a thing before?"
Ye Taotao shook her head, her voice full of determination: "I don't know if anyone has said that, but that's what I think."
Nan Zhi sighed softly, staring at Ye Taotao for a moment, and said softly: "No one has ever said that, and no one has ever done it."
Ye Taotao blinked, she didn't care about this, she had to try to know whether she could do it or not.
"Then what if someone is unwilling?" Nan Zhi asked with a smile, "That's what you think, but what if someone is unwilling to listen to you and must fight against each other and hurt each other?"
As the saying goes, you don't worry about scarcity but inequality. There is never a shortage of people in the world of cultivation who would fight for an opportunity.
How difficult is it to establish a world of cultivation where all people and monsters coexist peacefully? How... fantastic?
But after Ye Taotao heard this, she suddenly opened her mouth and showed a mouth of bright white fangs.
"Then just eat it!" The little monster raised its little face and said crisply, "If you don't obey, eat them all!"
Nan Zhi couldn't help laughing when she heard this, and shook her head helplessly.
"Of course eating is an easy way to solve the problem. However, if you eat too many people, other people will be afraid of you. What will happen when they unite and deal with you together?" Nan Zhi said.
.
Ye Taotao opened her eyes in confusion, tilting her head and thinking, her little face full of distress.
"Okay, if you really want to do it, just do it." Nan Zhi softened her voice again and comforted, "You are still young anyway, and you still have hundreds, thousands, or even tens of thousands of years to grow up.
It’s enough for you to think about it slowly.”
"Your mother's wish is that you can grow up happily, so as long as doing this can make you happy, that's enough."
Nan Zhi didn't believe Ye Taotao could do this, but that didn't stop her from coaxing Ye Taotao a few words.
After all, children are always fickle, and maybe in a few hundred years - or even not a few hundred years, just a few decades - Ye Taotao's thoughts will change.

On the other side, Tu Zhi stared at the rainy lake that swallowed up Ye Taotao and Bai Xin Xiaoyan. He squatted down and moved his hands in the lake water a few times. Feeling the chill from the cold rain, he narrowed his eyes slightly.
Ye Taotao and others never came out of the Rain Lake. Through the puppet silk left on Ye Taotao's body, he could feel that they were no longer on the third level.
It seems that the rain lakes on each level should be connected.
Tu Zhi stood up, took the umbrella from Tu Mei's hand, raised his finger in the air, and Tu Mei turned back into a paper figure, shrinking and floating into his palm.
After carefully putting away the paper puppet, Tu Zhi did not enter Yuhu Lake, but walked towards the entrance of the fourth floor.
As he stepped into the fourth level, the aura all over his body instantly rose to a level of cultivation, reaching the Golden Core stage.
Keep going up, the fifth floor...the sixth floor...the seventh floor...
The further up, the more Tu Zhi's cultivation improved. He quickly climbed from the golden elixir stage to the Yuanying stage, and then to the transformed spirit...
Countless spiritual energy in the rain ruins swarmed into his body, but he was like a bottomless pit. The crazy whale swallowed these spiritual energy without any sign of being unable to bear it.
Slowly, the overly rich spiritual energy formed a whirlpool around him, and he was like the eye of a spiritual energy hurricane!
Even the rainwater in Yuxu was uncontrollably drawn into this vortex and no longer fell vertically.
Not a single Yuliuying dared to get close to him. Only the brainless white-bone evil spirits felt the breath of living people, and moved their decaying bodies "creeping" toward him.
Tu Zhi didn't even need to do it himself. As soon as these white-bone evil spirits approached, they were swept into the wildly twisting spiritual energy vortex. When Tu Zhi walked by, there were only messy white bones that had been dismantled and could not be pieced together.
shape.
Finally, the moment he stepped onto the ninth floor——
All the spiritual energy poured into his body crazily, and the vortex became smaller and smaller, eventually disappearing, and his cultivation level also stayed at a point that was enough to shock the entire Rain Realm.
Astonishingly, he is a true monk who has transcended the tribulation stage!
Raising her eyes to stare at everything on the ninth floor, Tu Zhi raised the corners of her lips and revealed a mocking smile.
Back then, a powerful man died here together with Kui Niu from the monster clan. The death of this man and the beast jointly created the existence of Yuxu.
This also means that in Yuxu, the inheritance of both this powerful man and Kui Niu exists at the same time!

"Sister, have you always stayed here for all these years?" Ye Taotao was put down from Linyi's arms. She sat across from Nan Zhi across several chains and asked.
Nan Zhi lowered her eyes and whispered: "I have been waiting here since the formation of Yuxu."
"The formation of Yuxu?" Ye Taotao's eyes showed a hint of curiosity.
"Back then, when humans and monsters were fighting, a human killed Kui Niu here at the cost of his own death, and the Rain Ruins were formed."
"Kui Niu?"
Nan Zhi said: "You can call him the historian of the monster clan."
"Huh?" No wonder Ye Taotao was confused, the word "historian" really didn't go with the monsters.
Nan Zhi explained: "Kui Niu likes peace by nature. It has a huge body. Sometimes, it likes to draw what it sees and hears on its skin."
Ye Taotao was stunned for a moment. Could it be that...
Nan Zhi confirmed her guess and nodded: "Yes, those murals you see are actually made of Kui cow skin."
Before Kui Niu died, he transformed into a black tower and hid several pieces of his skin that recorded the history of the monster clan in the tower.
"Then... your mission has been completed, will you leave here after that?" Ye Taotao asked.
(I feel like everyone is curious about how old Zaizai is.
Originally this was a foreshadowing, but too many people asked, so I'll just tell you straight away, she is a Taotie cub that has just hatched, less than a year old.
As for why she knows a lot of things, it's because she swallowed the soul of a time traveler, so... the time traveler passed through the egg and was swallowed by the indigenous soul, which also caused the indigenous soul to wake up early.
But because Zaizai is too young, the time traveler's soul carries too much knowledge, which blurs her understanding of herself.
In other words, before she came into contact with various knowledge in the world of cultivation, the first thing she came into contact with was the nine-year compulsory education in the 21st century.
Originally, this foreshadowing was not revealed until later.)
