Chapter 527: Chapter 138: Great Wisdom Appears Foolish (7K Words, Asking for Monthly Votes)_3

"There’s also the Green Emperor lineage that has always considered itself the head of the Salvation Army. Looks like it’s time for a reshuffle now."

"And the Taoists have a hidden Spirit Venerable? The value of the Astronomy Association is continuously rising!"

Such posts were all over.

The content in these posts was nothing but direct copies of what Mu Xifeng had replied, without any additional information.

To put it bluntly, they were just making a fuss over nothing.

But the posters were not anonymous; they were using nicknames instead.

With Lie Zhenzi’s protection, they were not afraid of people seeking revenge.

Although the Astronomy Association also quickly responded to cover it up, it was obviously too late.

"In the ’online society’, the speed of message dissemination is too fast; you simply can’t block it."

"Hey, I always feel like Mu Xifeng has stirred up some major trouble. Truly lives up to his title as the Master of Calamity, a walking source of disaster~"

Xu Shu sighed but didn’t care.

Although I started the post, you can’t blame it on Tai Chu when Mu Xifeng’s big mouth spilled the beans.

Then, Xu Shu opened the ’Friend Requests’ in the bottom left corner, starting to handle his real business.

Spreading the whereabouts of the ’Frightening Corruptor’ is one thing, but if it brought any information about Althias, it would be a welcome bonus.

Unlike most people, Xu Shu actually had some dealings and grudges with the "Tailed Ksitigarbha!"

He had once taken three purple-quality Erosion Crystals, contributed by the latter when he succumbed to his dominating aura; although the most valuable Third-rank one was taken by Wuxin... That darn Big Lei Nuns...

As the saying goes, know yourself and know your enemy, and you shall never be in peril. Learning a bit more about him in case they met again was always a good thing.

He silently clicked open the friend requests and began to filter through them.

Those exploratory friend requests all came from Fourth-order.

For example, "Senior, I have some information here; I don’t know if it could be exchanged for...", hesitantly, Xu Shu replied directly and generously with a rough location, "North of the D8B3 area," blurring the specific location.

Then, he closed the chat, deleted the friend, seamless actions, and their identities were processed at once.

However, one message was particularly interesting, leaving some impression on Xu Shu.

The nickname of the requester was "Shui Longyin," who didn’t bring any news about Althias, his friend request note read, "Master, is it you?"

Xu Shu accepted.

The person immediately responded eagerly,

"Master, is it really you?" — Shui Longyin.

"Uh?" — Tai Chu.

Xu Shu decided not to directly respond, choosing to play a bit cryptic.

Then,

"Sorry to bother you." — Shui Longyin.

Since messages couldn’t be withdrawn, the other party directly deleted Xu Shu, trying to act as if nothing had happened.

This made Xu Shu more cautious.

This Shui Longyin seemed to be from Bai Yujing, his name matching the style of those guys.

Did they really think I was their Lord Bai Yujing?

Xu Shu chuckled but didn’t make a big deal out of this minor incident, instead turning his attention to the more straightforward, to-the-point messages.

"Althias, once known as the pale death god, was active during the early stages of the Great Catastrophe, but it wasn’t him who destroyed many countries and killed billions; he seemed to have been imprisoned. I don’t know much, just saying it straight. You decide whether it can be exchanged for information." — Anonymous.

"He fell during the early stages of the Great Catastrophe, the specific reasons unclear, but as far as I know, it had some connection with the decline of the Buddhist Sect." — Anonymous.

"Althias, known as King of Infinity, was a true Divine-level being but is now extinct. That’s all I know, but I can tell you a bit extra: the Death God Pope and the missing Buddhist pure land are related, haha, I don’t recommend you provoke her, it’s very risky and could trigger more disasters." — Anonymous

These three private chats from anonymous individuals, Xu Shu judged they were all Fifth-rank.

However, the information they provided made Xu Shu somewhat speechless.

Isn’t this information a bit too scarce?

He felt he knew more than they did.

Was this the kind of illusion created by his own weakness, revealing a frog-in-the-well perspective?

But at least I know Althias’ noble name, and I’m able to set up an altar that can presumably summon him...

Even so, Xu Shu still provided the corresponding information, and it was quite detailed, describing the location of where "Efeilus" was located.

The information was precise enough to mention landmark buildings nearby and which tunnel to take among the twin tunnels in the Black Forest.

Just in case they couldn’t find the place.

In the midst of this, the private message from Mu Xifeng surprised Xu Shu a bit.

He also provided a bit about Althias, but barely any useful information, far less than what Xu Shu knew himself.

However, he mentioned that Althias once madly hunted down the disciples of the Buddhist Sect.

This piqued Xu Shu’s interest, and he asked a few more questions, but unfortunately, Mu Xifeng only knew what but not why, so not much information was available.

However, in their private chat, Xu Shu noticed Mu Xifeng was incredibly serious.

His responses became scarce, essentially turning into Xu Shu asking and him responding.

Moreover, he would use a single word "uh" rather than "okay."

This indifferent attitude was completely different from the frenzied, foot-stomping youth from the comment section earlier.

Xu Shu was initially a bit unaccustomed, wondering why this guy suddenly stopped talking.

He was clearly very chatty just a while ago!

But Xu Shu paused slightly, then suddenly realized in an epiphany.

This Mu Xifeng was also managing his persona!
