He half-squatted down and hung the Water Demon Beast Necklace around Zhao Ling'er's neck, saying softly, "Promise your uncle you won't take this necklace off again. Also, pass it down from generation to generation."
After a brief silence, Lin Qing'er stared seriously at the Sword Immortal who had stood up again, and asked, "What exactly did you do?"
"As you can see, it was sealed using a special sealing technique." The Drunken Sword Immortal's voice was hoarse. "I spent a long time thinking and planning, and finally I realized... I am currently unable to kill the Water Demon Beast, and even if I become an immortal, it will still be very difficult to do so."
"However, somewhere, I experienced something that is hard to put into words."
The Sword Immortal paused briefly before continuing, "I saw another world... In that world, powerful beings called Tailed Beasts were sealed within the human body. This allowed the human body to borrow the power of the Tailed Beasts... It was when I saw this that I suddenly understood why it was necessary to kill the Water Demon Beast."

Chapter 341 The Drunken Sword Immortal About to Be Caught in a Love Triangle with His Senior Brother, His Secret Admirer, and His Wife? (Fourth Update)
"You mean..." Lin Qing'er looked bewildered; her mind was a mess, and she didn't understand the Sword Immortal's words at all.
The Sword Immortal wasn't surprised. He reached out and touched Zhao Ling'er's hair, his eyes filled with satisfaction. He said softly, "Let's not make it so complicated... Simply put, I sealed the Water Demon Beast, and then I handed over the vessel for sealing the Water Demon Beast to your lineage."
"The divine power of Nuwa possessed by the descendants of Nuwa is the nemesis of the water demon beast."
The Sword Immortal looked at Lin Qing'er and said, "Most importantly, the Water Demon Beast that I sealed is hanging around the necks of you descendants of Nuwa, and the divine power within you will merge with it."
“If you are under a deadly threat… in the heat of the moment, you might be able to draw upon the power of the Water Demon Beast… this is also a way to protect you.”
"This method." Lin Qing'er finally understood, and she was startled by this amazing idea.
After a long silence, Lin Qing'er spoke softly, "You have changed a lot since then."
The Sword Immortal paused for a moment, then closed his eyes and sighed, "People always change..."
Shaking his head, the Sword Immortal changed the subject, "By the way, what are you planning to do next? It's almost certain that the Witch King has given up on you. Don't tell me you're planning to go back to the Witch King's Palace."
"What do you mean?" Lin Qing'er frowned, understanding the implied meaning in the Sword Immortal's words.
“Let’s go to Mount Shu,” the Drunken Sword Immortal said earnestly. “The grudges and entanglements between you and me, with my senior brother… and between me and the Holy Maiden, all of them need to be settled.”
"Hmm?" Lin Qing'er's expression turned strange. "How does this matter have anything to do with the Holy Maiden?"
It's hard to describe Lin Qing'er's feelings at this moment. She was a little dazed, a little confused, understanding something... but after thinking about it, it seemed she understood nothing at all...
"Let's talk about it when we get to Mount Shu." The Drunken Sword Immortal touched his nose guiltily, his gaze somewhat unfocused. Suddenly, he sensed something, his expression turning cold and sharp. He instantly retrieved his sword and threw it into the distance. "Bai Yue, I have no time to deal with you today."
"But if you continue to pester me, don't blame me for being ruthless."
In the distance, towering flames erupted and swept outwards, turning vast swathes of the world into a sea of fire.
The illusion of reality ends here. A long silence fell over the Hall of Mist.
Applause suddenly broke out, and Tony Stark stared at the Sword Immortal with admiration. "A sudden inspiration... to actually think of turning the Water Demon Beast into an aid to Nuwa's descendants using a method similar to Jinchūriki."
Tony Stark initially thought that the Drunken Sword Immortal would cultivate to the point where he could dominate the world with a single sword strike, and then use various methods to kill the Water Demon Beast.
Although the Water Demon Beast is described as nearly immortal in the Starry Sky storyline, there must be a limit to how immortal it can be, right? Now that it has joined the Hall of Mist, are you worried about not being able to deal with this monster?
Even if it's truly unsolvable, it's simply due to insufficient cultivation time. If they're really provoked, I'll retreat into the Cultivation Moon, go into seclusion for another fifty years, and then emerge to deal with them again…
Even if the existing power structure can't solve the problem, we can simply wait. Who knows, one day the council might be joined by two powerful figures from mythological worlds…
However, the method that the Drunken Swordsman ultimately used was far superior to Tony Stark's original crude approach.
"This is all thanks to Mr. Ban's great help." The Drunken Sword Immortal lowered his eyes.
"It's just an exchange." Madara Uchiha remained as aloof as ever. Even if he helped others and they thanked him, he still maintained that disdainful attitude.
However, everyone in the council had gotten used to his awkward personality and didn't say much.
“I’m just thinking,” Huang Rong said, scrutinizing the Drunken Sword Immortal with great interest, “How will you ultimately handle your relationship with Lin Qing’er?”
"Put it down," the Drunken Sword Immortal said calmly.
"Huh?" Huang Rong was completely dumbfounded.
"Otherwise what?" The Drunken Sword Immortal glanced at Huang Rong. "My daughter is already out, what else can I do? Rekindle my romance with Lin Qing'er... Let's not even talk about how likely that is, that would be too unfair to the Holy Maiden and my daughter."
The Holy Maiden's responsibility lies with the Drunken Sword Immortal; he won't deny that. He already has a daughter… that's enough. As for feelings, those can be cultivated slowly.
"What's the big deal? Just don't get married, right?" Tony Stark was puzzled, not understanding what the Sword Immortal was struggling with. "As for the daughter, you can pay child support and spend time raising her, just do what you need to... Is it really that big of a problem?"
The Sword Immortal coughed violently. Zhang Sanfeng glanced speechlessly at Tony Stark, about to say something, when he suddenly remembered that in the Star Trek storyline, this guy seemed to be a playboy… and all his words stuck in his throat.
"On the differences in life values between the people of the United States and the ancient Chinese," Conan muttered to himself.
Tony Stark, upon hearing this, finally realized what was going on. "Oh, I see... Fine, whatever. Whether you want to be a nice guy or a simp... it's not really my problem anyway."
"...What does 'simp' mean?" The Drunken Sword Immortal fell into thought. Although he didn't understand the meaning of the word, he sensed a strong malice within it...
Su Han's lips twitched. He looked at Tony Stark speechlessly. "Why is your mouth so venomous? Can't you say something nice?"
The next instant, mist suddenly rose from a chair in the Hall of Mist. Then a figure slowly appeared—it was All Might.
"It seems my strength is still a bit insufficient! I must enter the Cultivation Month again for some arduous training," All Might laughed loudly.
His clothes were tattered and he looked rather disheveled, yet he himself remained as radiant as the sun, without a trace of gloom, generous and magnanimous.
"What happened on your end?" Accelerator glanced at All Might without batting an eye, a hint of doubt flashing in his eyes. "That AFO thing, wasn't it already resolved? Or did some future beyond the Council Chairman's manifestation appear in your world?"
“No, that’s not it.” All Might nodded to Su Han, scratched his head sheepishly, and continued, “Because I was spreading the method of cultivating Haki. As a result, a large number of internationally wanted criminals flooded into Japan.”
