Chapter 27: The Truth Emerges
"Wait a minute......" Hearing Yun Yukong's words with a hint of determination, Xia Yige turned to look at Situ Xingxuan, who had been standing behind him, and said, "You leave this mountain first." ”
Situ Xingxuan wanted to ask the reason, but when he saw Xia Yige's determined eyes, which were rarely revealed, and Yun Yukong, who had gathered all the forces of heaven and earth in front of him and exuded earth-shattering power, he finally gritted his teeth and followed Xia Yige's words and walked down the mountain.
"You made a wise choice." Seeing Situ Xingxuan's distant figure, Yun Yukong said, "The battle between the two of us, the others are not qualified to watch at all. ”
Who knew that Xia Yige shook his head after hearing this, and said slowly: "I just want him to live and replace his father." ”
"Oh?" Yun Yukong laughed playfully, "They are all people who are close to the realm of gods, and there will be so many worldly feelings?" ”
"His father has been kind to me, and I have to repay it," Xia Yige replied, "so I will accompany him to challenge you, so that he will not leave too many regrets." ”
Yun Yukong raised an eyebrow, "Even if you already knew that I could easily kill that kid?" ”
"Yes, I already knew about your cultivation, and I was shocked." Xia Yige said.
"Prophecy or speculation?" Yun Yukong suddenly became interested and asked.
Hearing Yun Yukong's question, Xia Yige smiled, and the laughter revealed a hint of helplessness, "What kind of prophecy...... I don't have the power to prophesy! ”
"The other astrologers ......" As if hearing a big joke, Yun Yukong frowned.
"According to my guess, for thousands of years, the so-called art of prophecy has been simply fake. They know what the future holds, it's just a guess based on clues. Xia Yige's voice was as calm as water, "How can there be any such thing as predicting the future, if astrologers can really predict the future, why did my father die for no reason?" If an astrologer can foresee everything, wouldn't he become the supreme god?! ”
"I admire your martial arts heart, so I can tell you that the title of astrologer is nothing more than the mystery of an ancient profession, and there is nothing about prophecy on it in "Astrology", only the principle explanation and application of rune spells and rune formations."
Listening to Xia Yige's words, Yun Yukong was really surprised, but then he laughed heartily. "Hahaha...... As I expected! My Yun family has never believed in the prophecy, and it seems that only my Yun family has been awake for thousands of years! ”
The next moment, Yun Yukong stared at Xia Yige's eyes and said solemnly: "Everyone only knows that the astrologer can mediate the power disputes between the families and can lead the family war once every few decades...... But who would have thought that all along, the one who could really benefit from the war was the Situ family, the guardian family of the so-called astrologers! He looked at Xia Yige's gaze darkly, "And the one who has the greatest benefit is the 'astrologer' who dominates all this!" ”
Xia Yige's body suddenly trembled. He has long had such bold speculations, but he always subconsciously buries such unrealistic speculations in the depths of the facts. However, today's words of Yun Yukong made the long-dormant seed quickly take root and sprout, and he felt that a fact that many people could not accept had surfaced.
If that's really the case...... So what is the cause of the family war for thousands of years? So who is to blame for my father's death? So who should bear the burden of the thousands of lives lost in the family strife?
Is the Ji family wrong? Is the Yun family wrong? Those who die for the sake of profit are guilty of unpunishable crimes or are they innocent of death?
Xia Yige suddenly felt how ridiculous this world was. He once sneered at someone when he heard someone say that "the hustle and bustle of the world is for profit, and the hustle and bustle of the world is for profit", but at this moment, he couldn't help but be confused: Is this the truth of the world?
