Chapter 230: Light and Shadow

The woman sat down on a sofa chair with her back to the fire.

Warm light radiated from behind her, outlining her figure in a rough outline, and her face disappeared into the darkness, no longer looking terrifying.

She motioned for Su Xue'er to sit in another chair.

Su Xue'er sat down and looked at each other.

For some reason, Su Xue'er suddenly felt a trace of relaxation and warmth in her heart.

"Do you want to see your future?" The woman asked.

"I don't want to." Su Xue'er shook her head.

"Why? Isn't it a good thing to be able to get a glimpse of fate? ”

"I'm here to escape fate, so I don't want to know what it was like."

The woman paused, then asked, "So, are you dissatisfied with your life?" ”

"What do you mean?"

"You are a young lady, and I mean, of course, your life as a noblemanβ€”balls, horseback riding, afternoon tea, beautiful dresses."

"I'm a professional in the five elements and four sections, and these things are like shadows in a slide show, except for the skirt, which is unreal and tiresome." Su Xueer said.

"Professional...... So, your intention here is to gain power? ”

"Yes, I want to be strong." Su Xueer said.

The woman burst out laughing uncontrollably.

"A true heir! I haven't met it in hundreds of years. ”

She seemed happy.

"Every heir is hesitant between power and power."

"Smart people will choose power, because after holding power, no matter what it is, just say a word, and there will naturally be corresponding people to do it properly."

"Very few people choose to pass on their powers."

"This road is too difficult, too dangerous, you will die at any time, and if you die, you will die in vain, you will get nothing, and even I will not be able to protect you."

"Your choice is full of courage, and then, you can feel free to ask me questions about strength." The woman said.

"It's like never before, and you've got to take it." She added.

Su Xue'er said: "I saw the control room of the spaceship, so let's say, our Jiufu is from another planet?" ”

"That's right."

"Why?"

"There are a lot of cosmic monsters here, and it's a remote corner, which can be regarded as a paradise."

"Paradise! Did we flee here? ”

"Clever girl."

Su Xue'er asked again: "But there are so many disasters in the world, what will we do in the future?" ”

"Disaster? What are you referring to? ”

"Sea beasts, killers, eternal games, killing clowns."

"Is this a disaster? It's just some noise with loud thunder and little rain. ”

The woman shook her head and let out a chuckle: "Please cherish your current life, there are few days in the world where we have such a stable day." ”

"You're saying there will be more disasters?"

"Kid, that's not what you really want to ask about power." The woman interrupted her questioning.

Su Xue'er fell silent.

The woman looked at her as if she could see her heart.

"I can feel your apprehension, but I want to say, please cherish the opportunity, every mansion master can only get the opportunity to change his fate on this day."

"After this day, no matter how much you regret it, you won't be able to get my help."

Su Xue'er gritted her teeth and said, "Then I asked, if it's not right, please don't mind." ”

"Say it."

"I ...... How can I gain the power of the fifth stage of the five elements? ”

"Why do you need the power of the fifth stage?"

"To be in charge of your own destiny."

"Everyone who comes here, every one of them asks how to dominate the world, only you want to dominate yourself."

"Can you tell me?"

"I'm not sure, come here, I need to take a closer look at you."

Su Xue'er stood up and came to the woman.

The woman stretched out her bone fingers wrapped in a thin layer of human skin and gently held up Su Xue'er's little hand.

"Special Five Elements, Wind Spirit Fourth Stage...... It's reached its limit, and it can't be broken through anymore. The woman said softly.

"Nope."

Su Xue'er's face turned pale in an instant, and she shook her head in despair.

The best wishes are dashed.

In fact, she also has a vague sense of her talent.

There are very few people in the whole world who can reach the fifth stage of the five elements.

On the contrary, the woman comforted: "Fate is not eternal and unchanging, and there is always a way for us to change its course." ”

"Please tell me how."

"I need to take a closer look at you, get down on your knees and lift your head."

Su Xueer knelt down as she said, so that the woman could take a better look at herself.

The woman turned and turned over the fire in the fireplace with an iron chisel.

The firelight became warm and bright.

The woman was still sitting with her backlight, the light reflecting her silhouette into deeper darkness, and she stretched out her bone-like hands to hold Su Xue'er's face, carefully examining it.

And Su Xue'er faced the firelight, her eyes full of longing sparkled.

After a long time, the woman spoke.

"The forces of the Hidden Treasure don't like you."

"The Chosen One...... Cut off by your body and unable to reach your soul. ”

"Five Elements, the power of the wind spirit is about to be full, and it can't hold any more."

"What a solid ...... of fate"

"Girl, wouldn't you like to think of other ways, such as using power or wealth to change your life?"

The woman sighed and continued, "You are a rare heir, and I actually want to help you. ”

"I can tell you the handle of Emperor Fuxi, tell you the president's little secret, and even let that guy who opened up a religion do one thing for you, and I can also help you fight other mansion masters to expand the power of Su Mansion."

"For the sake of being so flattering, I can even adjust your authority very high from the Goddess of Justice to make it easier for you to do anything."

"Goddess of Justice ......"

"Yes, that's ours."

Su Xue'er thought for a moment, still shook her head and said, "No, these are all foreign things, and they can't achieve my wishes." ”

"I just want to have power that I can control."

The woman said: "It's hard, it takes a lot of expensive costs, even lives. ”

"I'm willing to pay the price." Su Xueer said.

The woman looked at her deeply before beckoning.

A low wooden table appeared next to the two of them.

"According to the rules of the Inheritance Rite," the woman said, "each Inheritor has the authority to let me activate the Destiny Heavenly Chosen Technique, but their desires are too superficial, and I can complete their inheritance without any effort at all." ”

"And you, little girl, are sober and know what is most important."

"So you're going to help me?" Su Xue'er asked.

"I repeat, once you choose this path, you really risk dying." The woman said.

"I'd rather die on the way to get my wish fulfilled." Su Xueer said.

"Such courage, or rather, recklessness, really impresses me," the woman said, knocking on the table, "It seems that I have to be serious." ”

"Please put your belongings up."

As she spoke, a black card crept into the void above her.

"How many pieces?" Su Xue'er asked.

"All." The woman said.

β€œβ€¦β€¦ These things won't be destroyed. Su Xueer hesitated.

"Naturally not."

Su Xue'er came out in a hurry, and she didn't have time to bring anything.

She placed her belongings on the table.
