This primordial world is not serious!

Chapter 1048 - 499: Xuanyuan and Chiyou (Part 2)

Li Shou looked at the Divination Grass handed over by Cangjie, a smiling expression appearing on his face, and he took it readily.

"Promoted by Fu Xi Saint Emperor, naturally it's highly useful, a common belief among the Human Race—how could I not be aware?"

"But after all, these things originate from tens of thousands of years ago. Although the Human Race should cherish the memory of the sages, we mustn't be stagnant. There must be those who try to innovate, to explore other paths."

Li Shou's words revealed a spirit daring to challenge authority, daring to innovate.

Upon hearing this, Cangjie finally paused his engraving work.

He raised his head, and those four peculiar pupils stared fixedly at Li Shou for a long time, as if trying to see through his true thoughts.

Then, his gaze glanced at the ancient-shaped calculating rods in Li Shou's hand.

"Your words are indeed reasonable; our Human Race truly needs to constantly move forward."

"But evidence shows that merely relying on this novelty in your hand is still far from enough. You should continue to improve it."

Cangjie, although speaking frankly, bore no trace of disdain.

He clearly understood that the calculation science Li Shou was researching was a groundbreaking innovation that could rival his own creation of characters.

Yet he also realized that this science was currently in a very preliminary stage, not perfected; it's manageable for budgeting tribal resources and population, but if used to deduce Heavenly Secret and predict the future, it remains quite inadequate.

Perhaps, until the day Li Shou can truly use the way of calculation to pave a Great Dao reaching the heavens and earth, only then saying the same words would not be too late.

Hearing Cangjie's earnest evaluation, Li Shou simply smiled gently without arguing.

He deeply understood the long and arduous path ahead of him, and respected Cangjie's prudent approach as a meticulous scholar.

He decided not to insist on using his own calculating rods, instead casually manipulating the ancient Divination Grass, beginning to deduce the fortunes and misfortunes for the Youxiong Tribe in the coming time.

The Divination Grass under his manipulation quickly manifested a mysterious hexagram.

"It's a sign of great fortune!"

A booming voice suddenly joined in, only to see Li Mu's massive head crowding in front of the hexagram.

He stared with large copper-bell-like eyes for a long time, unable to grasp the deep meaning, but upon seeing the harmonious arrangement, he split into a hearty smile.

Sitting at the main seat, Xuanyuan, seeing his own secretary Li Shou nod with a smile, confirming the deduction result, a hint of happiness also appeared on his face.

Prosperity of the tribe is the best news for him as Clan Leader.

He then turned his head to a corner where Qibo sat quietly, exuding a fresh fragrance of grass and wood.

"Mr. Qibo, I've heard recently that His Majesty Shennong, the Common Lord, intends to select young talents and delegate heavy responsibilities."

"This indicates that the selection for the new Human Emperor might already be on the agenda."

"If we can compile the Book of Medicine at an early date, perhaps by this accomplishment, we can seize the lead in the future Human Emperor candidate competition."

Xuanyuan's tone carried a hint of unmistakable regret.

Being one of the most outstanding Tribal Leaders among the young generation of the Human Race, Xuanyuan can absolutely be regarded as an all-around contestant.

In military strategy, numerical calculation, internal management, medical pharmacology, farming and planting, calendar formulation, melody composing, and various other fields, he possesses exceptional talents that are hard for ordinary people to reach.

Especially after encountering Qibo, a natural Healer, Xuanyuan's interest in Medical Dao grew wildly, often researching and discussing together.

The two found much in common and, based on their own knowledge, co-authored half a volume of a Medical Scripture replete with the brilliance of wisdom.

This half volume already encompasses treatment and prevention methods for most diseases in the human world, and once promoted, it is destined to benefit countless lives.

However, the remaining half volume involves higher-level truths of life, even touching upon the Da Luo Dao, beyond their current Realm.

Xuanyuan understood in his heart that until he truly attains the Da Luo Dao Fruit, the completion of this Medical Scripture is certainly impossible.

Facing Xuanyuan's regret, Qibo simply returned a gentle smile, speaking slowly, his voice like a spring breeze brushing by.

"Clan Leader, the Dao of Healer lies in saving the world and rescuing the people."

"This book, concerning the life and death of all creatures under the heavens, every word on it must undergo rigorous refinement, allowing no neglect or haste; this medical book cannot be rushed."

Li Mu interjected by the side: "Clan Leader, years ago when we went to the Chen Capital to meet the Common Lord, I saw many leaders from various major tribes of the Human Race."

"In my opinion, among the new generation of young leaders nowadays, none possesses talents and gifts comparable to yours, Clan Leader."

"Therefore, Clan Leader, you need not worry about that so-called position of Human Emperor."

Li Mu's words were filled with absolute confidence and admiration for Xuanyuan, in his view, Xuanyuan becoming the next Human Emperor was a certainty.

Cangjie, who had been silent, listened to Li Mu's nearly flattering words and chuckled, adding a reminder:

"Li Mu, you shouldn't belittle the heroes and warriors of the world just because you wholeheartedly support our Clan Leader."

"Now, as we are in a bustling era of the Human Dao, with burgeoning Qi Fortune, you never know how many heavenly prodigies are emerging from all regions, born embracing great Qi Fortune."
