Chapter 40: Death Is Not the End

"Will I be able to live out my old age?"

Elder Shi was not a mortal after all.

Seeing that his body was turning into a stone statue, the look on his face was not panicked, but he just looked at Wutian calmly and asked softly.

He didn't think that Wutian would let him go so easily when he had the absolute upper hand.

"As long as you want."

Wutian said in a serious tone.

"Father, I am looking for love, and I have love in my heart."

"I can't bear to let you die like an old man without a place to be buried."

Wutian looked at Elder Shi calmly and spoke slowly.

At this time, Wutian is like a compassionate saint.

"I don't need you to be hypocritical."

Elder Shi's tone was still stiff.

"If I can't kill you today, I'd rather die here."

From that tone, it was not difficult to see that in Elder Shi's heart, he had made up his mind.

He is also a legendary figure in Nanzhao Kingdom, and since he has made a decision, he will definitely not change it.

"Father-in-law, do you really want to die once?"

Wutian looked at Elder Shi a little helplessly.

"I'm always going to die, what difference does it make if I die early or later."

"I just hate, I can't even hurt you."

Elder Shi sighed wistfully.

Although his upper body has not yet been petrified, his qi is out of order, and he can't punch at all.

Even in normal times, Elder Shi's full force might not be able to hurt Wutian, let alone at this time.

Therefore, Elder Shi has actually begun to calmly accept the fate of death now.

"Well, father-in-law, if this is the ending you want, I respect your choice."

Wutian said softly.

The petrification on Elder Shi's body is getting worse and worse.

The petrification spread to his chest, neck, and even his face, turning to stone.

"Father, goodbye—"

Wutian sighed and turned to leave.

Let Elder Shi, behind him, turn into a stone statue.

"Dad, do you really care about Elder Shi?"

Lin Qing'er in the primordial god black lotus couldn't help but ask Wutian.

She could feel that in the depths of Wutian's heart, Elder Shi was definitely different, but now, Wutian really wanted to kill Elder Shi.

From a rational point of view, Elder Shi wants to kill Wutian, and Wutian kills Elder Shi, which is right, but from an emotional point of view, Lin Qing'er feels that it is a little difficult to accept.

"This is my stepfather's own choice."

Wutian whispered to Lin Qing'er.

After speaking, Wutian also specifically explained: "He needs a result to be worthy of his conscience." ”

"Even if that's the case, you don't have to kill Elder Shi!"

Lin Qing'er still couldn't accept Wutian's words.

"Daddy, you-"

Wutian knew what Lin Qing'er wanted to say, so he directly interrupted Lin Qing'er's words and explained to her: "Qing'er, death is not the end. ”

"For my stepfather, death was just an explanation."

"He is the patriarch of Nanzhao Kingdom, one life, and the righteousness of his monarch and minister."

"He felt guilty about me in his heart, and his life ended the father-son relationship between us."

Wutian faced Lin Qing'er and said it clearly.

He is a very thoughtful person who wants to make things happen at every turn.

And the only person who can listen to his inner voice is Lin Qing'er, whose soul is in the primordial god black lotus, and his body is suppressing the water demon beast.

Therefore, when facing Lin Qing'er, Wutian is also willing to say some thoughts in his heart many times.

"Dad, you say, Elder Shi's heart is ashamed of you?"

After Lin Qing'er heard Wutian's words, she couldn't help but ask with some surprise.

As far as she knew, whether it was Elder Shi or Wutian, they were both persistent people, and once they made a decision in their hearts, they would never change it, let alone regret it.

How could such an Elder Shi be ashamed of Wutian.

Lin Qinger always felt that something was unrealistic.

"He was always feeling guilty, thinking that it was what he did back then that made me the way I am now."

Wutian shook his head lightly, and said with deep meaning: "It's just that he doesn't know that I was born and destined to be extraordinary, and I am different from those ordinary people." ”

"As I learn more about the world, I will definitely pursue the truth."

"When I see the shortcomings of this world, I will definitely be dissatisfied with this world."

"But he couldn't figure it out himself."

After Lin Qing'er heard Wutian's words, she asked again, "Is Elder Shi really going to die?" ”

"He'll die once!"

There is no deep meaning in the sky.

As soon as these words fell, behind him, Elder Shi, who had completely turned into a stone statue, suddenly exploded, turning into countless powders and disappearing.

Lin Qing'er cared very much, but Wutian himself didn't look back at all.

"Will he still live?" Lin Qing'er grasped the language sickness in Wutian's words and asked with some concern.

"It's up to him, whether he wants to live or not." There is no deep meaning in the sky.

……

After Wutian and Elder Shi met, they went directly into the palace to see the Witch King.

Elder Shi's righteousness as a monarch and minister is complete, and the Witch King should also know about it.

In the royal palace, the highest authority is not the witch king, but Wutian.

If it weren't for Wutian's lack of interest in the palace, even if he lived in the palace, no one would say anything.

Now, if Wutian wants to enter the palace, it can be said that it is unimpeded.

If it weren't for Wutian's order, let the palace servant go and inform the witch king, he had come to the palace.

Maybe the Witch King won't know about his arrival until he shows up.

"Lunatic Master!"

When the witch king heard that Wutian was coming, he was immediately startled.

He is facing lawlessness now, which is a bit of a shame.

Elder Shi wanted to kill Wutian, he really couldn't stop it, but he didn't warn Wutian, he was very worried, Wutian was to solve Elder Shi, and then come to him to settle accounts.

Under the anxiety of the witch king, Wutian came to him.

"Master!"

Although the witch king was uneasy in his heart, he was still very polite and greeted Wutian.

He doesn't know what kind of attitude Wutian will use to treat him next, but it is not strange that the so-called etiquette is not strange, and it is good for the future development of things to be a little more thoughtful now.

"I don't know why the sect leader came here today?"

The Witch King asked, pretending to be stupid.

"Elder Shi is dead."

Wutian said straight to the point.

"Elder Shi is dead!"

The Witch King was stunned for a moment, and looked at Wutian in horror.

"You can actually do such a vicious thing to Elder Shi."

This result, the Witch King did not expect in any case.

He originally thought that Wutian had defeated Elder Shi and imprisoned Elder Shi.

Although he has a prejudice against Wutian and is hostile to Wutian, most of the people in Nanzhao regard Wutian as sacred in the world and are great sages with a benevolent heart.

Such a character, whether he is disguised or really so.

He has now killed his stepfather, and once it is known, it will definitely be a huge blow to his prestige.
