Zhou Bao found this really funny. Actually, he thought it was a joke.
The Fairy Pool Hunter had sent a man to visit him?
For the purpose of getting the position of Fate Creator? Zhou Bao had nothing to do with the Fairy Pool Hunter, so why did the Fairy Pool Hunter expect Zhou Bao to vote for him?
Moreover, if he wanted Zhou Bao’s support, he should at least visit Zhou Bao in person, but he had sent Ye Qingtian instead. Even though Ye Qingtian had a cultivation at the level of a Venerable, to be honest, he was not qualified to handle such an important matter.
However, those were just Zhou Bao’s thoughts. He did not reveal any of this on his face. He wore a genial smile and greeted,
Fairy Pool Hunter! Hee hee, come here, have a cup of tea and let’s talk about this!

As the old saying went, he who had a thorough knowledge of the enemy and himself was bound to win all battles. Now that Zhou Bao was determined to help the Fate Creation Boy contend for the post of Fate Creator, he had to be serious about the matter. Further, it also concerned his own interests. He certainly could not sit on his backside and watch. Ye Qingtian had come over to him of his own accord, Zhou Bao naturally had to take advantage of this precious opportunity.

Come in, have a seat. You’re in my place now, just make yourself at home!
Leading Ye Qingtian into the Sea-calming Palace, Zhou Bao held up a cup of tea and said,
Brother Ye, though we have had our differences in the past, since so many years have passed, let’s just throw them to the wind and start over. What do you say?


Of course, of course. If I offended you, King Wuyang in the past, please forgive me!
Ye Qingtian answered hastily and also raised his teacup.

I know that the willpower of the Immortal Realm has spread through the hollow, causing the location of our Heaven Realm World to be exposed. Practitioners and experts from the Alien Realm keep invading our Heaven Realm World, and due to the damaged Fairy Weapon of Fate, our Heaven Realm World doesn’t have basic protection. So, the Four Eastern Regions, the Three Western Regions, and even the Sea Area are all proposing to select a new Fate Creator who will combine the three divided parts of the Fairy Weapon of Fate into one and regain control of Heaven and Earth, right?


Of course King Wuyang knows everything, especially regarding such a critical issue!
Ye Qingtian replied with a smile.
I guess you must also know that only four men are eligible to contend for the post of Fate Creator, and the Fairy Pool Hunter is one of them!


But my father-in-law is also one of them!


Hee hee, the Human Emperor indeed is a competitive candidate for the post of Fate Creator. But don’t you think that his influence is too shallow? And what he practices is precisely the domineering Way of the Emperor. If he turns it into the Way of Fate, I’m afraid you won’t be able to live a comfortable life anymore, will you?


Well, that’s true. The Way of the Emperor could really bring me a lot of trouble. If a man practicing the Way of the Emperor becomes the Fate Creator and then achieves the Advanced Level of the Way of the Emperor with the help of the Power of Fate in the Heaven Realm World, that won’t be good for anyone!


I’m confused. Have you forgotten the Sea Emperor? The Ranking of Demons and Immortals is in his hand. If he wants to become the Fate Creator, considering his strength, no one else will have a chance!


I don’t know the reason, but the Fairy Pool Hunter told me that the Sea Emperor would never fight for the position of Fate Creator!


Oh? Really?
Zhou Bao raised his eyebrows but was actually not surprised. The Sea Emperor had been called the Vast Sea Emperor in antiquity times and had achieved Earthly Immortal Karmic Rank back then. Thus, to an Earthly Immortal like him, the position of Fate Creator was just a burden, not worthy of fighting for. He probably had loads of business to attend to, so why would he want to contend to be Fate Creator?

Then, the last candidate is the Fate Creation Boy!
Zhou Bao said with a faint smile.
The Fate Creation Boy left me a pretty good impression, so I’m going to back him up!

Ye Qingtian’s expression altered quickly. He was shocked by Zhou Bao’s straightforwardness. After remaining silent for quite some time, he finally opened his mouth,
The Fate Creation Boy is the device spirit of the Fairy Weapon of Fate, and he is indeed the fittest to become Fate Creator. But we should remember that the Fate Creation Boy has been suppressed for a long time, since antiquity times. Although he is playing the role of a Fate Creator, he is not very competent. That’s why the Heaven Realm World has been driven to this point!


There are many factors causing the decline of the Heaven Realm World. We cannot blame all of it on the Fate Creation Boy. In antiquity times, the Heaven Realm World was controlled by the Jade Emperor and the other 98 emperors. Every one of them had a strength at the level of the Earthly Immortal, but none of them cared about the Fate Creation Boy!
Zhou Bao smiled.
Although he was treated this way, the Fate Creation Boy still continued to maintain the entire Heaven Realm World. Even when the Heaven Realm World moved away from the Center World, he continued monitoring the Primordial Demon in the Infinite Star Sea!
Zhou Bao shot a look at Ye Qingtian before continuing,
Don’t forget that the Infinite Star Sea is the only Alien Star Area connected to the Heaven Realm World by a Transmitting Formation. If it was not for him dealing with the Venerable Black Turtle in the dark, secrets of the Heaven Realm World would have long been disclosed instead of surviving till today!


In that case, nothing I can say will make a difference. You’ve already made your decision!
Ye Qingtian realized that he had made this visit in vain. Apparently, Zhou Bao and the Fate Creation Boy had a profound relationship. Otherwise, he would not have known so much.

Right, no matter what you say, I’ve made up my mind!
Zhou Bao nodded.
I’m sorry that you have to travel all the way here and go back fruitlessly!


Never mind. I actually did not hold high hope when coming here!
Ye Qingtian also gave a smile. They had been enemies so long, he naturally did not expect he could merely make a speech and turn Zhou Bao into a friend. Ye Qingtian knew he did not have that kind of influence.
But he had wanted to come here anyway because besides the dim hope of gaining Zhou Bao’s support he also intended to find out which side Zhou Bao had taken. And now that he had heard Zhou Bao’s answer, his goal had been achieved.
There was nothing left to say. Ye Qingtian did not choose to push harder. He stood up and took his leave.

The Fairy Pool Hunter? Hmm, why did he think of coming to me? Why would I agree to help him? What a joke! If he was just sounding me out, that would be even more hilarious. He might have underestimated me too much. Even though I showed him my true opinion, so what? Does he have any chance of winning?

Just like the selection of Human Emperor before, the significance of the Fate Creator appointment was enormous.
Frankly, this time they were not merely selecting a new Fate Creator, because there was already a ready-made Fate Creator in the Heaven Realm World. What mattered now was combining the three parts of the Fairy Weapon of Fate into one, but this involved intricate issues. Each influence was trying to select a Fate Creator that represented their own interests.
From Zhou Bao’s point of view, it was impossible to achieve. Whether it was the Human Emperor Yan Yuntian or the mysterious Fairy Pool Hunter, neither one could represent the interests of everyone at the same time. Therefore, the chances of one of them assuming the position were quite dim. The Fate Creation Boy still had the highest chance of winning. To start with, the Fate Creation Boy was already a Fate Creator, and he had never interfered with other influences, which satisfied their needs. Moreover, it was not easy to subdue the Fate Creation Boy. Although he had only the Venerable Black Turtle backing him, he was the device spirit of the Fairy Weapon of Fate. Who knew how strong his strength was? If he refused to surrender, the influences would have to go through a fair amount of trouble to pin him down. Above all, Zhou Bao knew the Fate Creation Boy possessed energy that enabled him to enter the Void Immortal Realm at any time. Therefore, if something did happen to him, he could at least hide in the Fate Creation Palace, a place no one else in the Heaven Realm World could enter except for Zhou Bao.
Yes, no one else could enter!
Hence, as far as Zhou Bao concerned, the Fate Creation Boy had taken an unconquerable position, unless…
Contemplating for a while, Zhou Bao considered one other possibility. Unless Yan Yuntian or the Fairy Pool Hunter had gained the support of the Sea Emperor, an Earthly Immortal who had been the Vast Sea Emperor in antiquity times. If the Sea Emperor clearly showed his support, even Zhou Bao could do nothing about it.
At present, he was definitely not a match for an Earthly Immortal.

It appears that the Fairy Pool Hunter knows a lot about the Sea Emperor. Could they have reached an agreement?

At the thought of this, Zhou Bao felt the matter was getting tricky. He quickly broke through layers of hollow and arrived at the Taihua Mountain.
The Taihua Mountain was still floating in an unknown space with a handful of people living there. There were still two important people on the Taihua Mountain: the Fate Creation Boy and the Venerable Black Turtle.

I was just thinking, it’s about time you came!

The Fate Creation Boy knew that Zhou Bao had arrived the moment he revealed himself on mountain. Zhou Bao did not intend to hide his arrival from him anyway.

There are some issues I need to confirm with you, please!
Zhou Bao smiled. In a flash, he appeared in front of the Fate Creation Boy and Venerable Black Turtle.

Venerable Black Turtle, you do not look well. Have you met something disturbing?
Zhou Bao asked with a big-hearted smile when he saw the livid-faced Venerable Black Turtle.

Yes, big trouble!
The Venerable Black Turtle answered, apparently in no need to perform social formalities before Zhou Bao.
As you might have heard, those guys want to merge the parts of Fairy Weapon of Fate into one!


That’s good. Restoring the Fairy Weapon of Fate to its original state can not only enhance the strength of our Heaven Realm World considerably, but also help the Fate Creation Boy recover his power. It’s great news!


Great news? Well, if it went smoothly, it would surely be great news. However, they do not want the Fate Creation Boy to be their Fate Creator, and they’re even going to select a new Fate Creator. What a bunch of jackases!
The Venerable Black Turtle suddenly pounded the stone table in front of him. It instantly shattered into pieces.
The Venerable Black Turtle had been raised solely by the Fate Creation Boy, so he undoubtedly stood by the Fate Creation Boy’s side. When they talked about this matter, he wanted to wipe out all the other candidates. But unfortunately, he did not have that capability.

I’ve also got some news on this matter!
Zhou Bao said, beaming.
Ye Qingtian came to me a moment ago and asked me to back the Fairy Pool Hunter!


What? Him again?
The Venerable Black Turtle blurted out in astonishment.

Well, the Fairy Pool Hunter didn’t just pay a visit here, did he?


He just took off!
The Venerable Black Turtle snapped.
Dared to threaten us on our Taihua Mountain. If the Fate Creation Boy hadn’t stopped me, I would have killed him already!
