Xia Feng was speechless upon hearing this.
From another perspective, he had once been the master of the world, and now he was reborn in such a manner.
Wasn't this a form of irony?
It was indeed ironic, for such a powerful existence had its position usurped.
Xia Feng felt a sense of inexpressible emotion.
"Little Piggy, I was once so strong, why was the Heavenly Dao taken from me?" Xia Feng desperately wanted to know.
Why, despite being so formidable, was the Heavenly Dao taken, leading to his current predicament?
Xia Feng had not yet recovered his memories, and knew little of many things. Even what Little Piggy knew was limited.
But Xia Feng was filled with questions about why this had happened.
"Master, I don't know the details, but I have a general idea. Perhaps it was due to your arrogance, wanting to experience starting anew. The specific reasons can only be clarified once you recover your memories, as my knowledge is limited. The general situation is that you wanted to try it out," Little Piggy explained, his words half-understood, leaving Xia Feng confused.
In essence, he had brought it upon himself?
Xia Feng was utterly speechless.
Just how rebellious had he been back then?
Truly, he had reaped what he had sown.
Of course, Little Piggy didn't know the specifics, and Xia Feng could only wait until his memories returned.
"Never mind, I won't dwell on this. The priority now is to find the last fragment. Once I recover my memories and strength, everything will become clear," Xia Feng waved his hand.
Today's gains were immense.
At the very least, he knew his identity—that he was the Heavenly Dao.
He also knew the origin of the Heavenly Dao and how one became it.
He learned that the Heavenly Dao could be usurped and that it could die.
These pieces of information settled in Xia Feng's mind, and he automatically formulated strategies to deal with them.
"Yes, Master, don't worry about being discovered by the Heavenly Dao. I believe the possibility is very slim. Even if he does, as I said before, he will likely turn a blind eye and pretend not to know, waiting for you to fully recover and have the strength to challenge him," Little Piggy paused, then continued,
"Because, like you, he is a very arrogant person."
Xia Feng felt like crying and laughing at the same time.
What an idiot he had been.
The past him was also a complete fool.
Shouldn't any threat be eliminated in its infancy?
Instead, he waited for it to grow into a major threat before trying to kill it?
He couldn't understand such a mindset.
But that was how his past self had behaved, leaving Xia Feng utterly speechless.
"Let's not talk about this anymore. The urgent matter now is to find the last jade pendant," Xia Feng no longer wished to discuss these matters.
"Alright, Master, you should now accept their faith and make them your most loyal followers. Also, build your statue here. This will help gather the power of faith," Little Piggy began offering Xia Feng advice.
The power of faith was the only way to become the Heavenly Dao, and this power was indispensable.
"How should I do that?" Xia Feng asked.
"Just act cool and make them believe in you. With your performance just now, they will completely and devotedly believe in you," Little Piggy said with a smile.
Xia Feng revealed a wry smile upon hearing this.
Act cool?
Wasn't that his specialty?
Xia Feng then responded, "This is a minor issue. Let's start now."
