Chapter 788: Fate
Sitting in the blood mist, looking at the man in front of me, I didn't speak for a long time.
Ji Zongbu was also looking at me, as if he was spying on my reaction, and those deep eyes that seemed to pierce people's souls made people palpitate.
"You have been struggling to find the answers you want to get, to fight against the way of heaven, to reverse fate, and to do this as much as you can, but as everyone knows, this is actually fate itself, no one can fight against fate, just like you and I meet now, and we are also in the dark, and it is predestined."
I don't know why Ji Zongbu said these words to me, but I can feel that he is from the bottom of his heart.
I was silent for a long time, then let out a long breath, looked up at him and asked, "What about you, what is your purpose?" ”
"Purpose?" A trace of confusion appeared in Ji Zongbu's eyes.
"Don't you have a purpose?" I can't believe it.
"Before." Ji Zongbu said lightly. "At first, when I stepped into this industry, my greatest wish was to be able to capture all the heavenly and earth treasures that exist in heaven and earth, and become the first person to hold treasures in ancient and modern times, and then I did it, and then I discovered the time-space vortex, and mastered the secret of immortality, and then, I began to want to take the water-dividing sword hidden in Sanchawan as my own, and began to try in vain to get the artifact...... Until now, even I don't know what I want, maybe I get too many things, and I can't tell what I really need. ”
Ji Zongbu This is the first time since the two of us have known each other for so long, and I feel so much emotion in my heart after listening to it, and I don't know what to say for a while.
"Let's look at it." Ji Zongbu saw that I didn't speak, and smiled slightly. "Since you are already in this position today, it means that your opponent will not be able to kill you from now on, do you think that if you kill the King of Youdu, all this will be over? I think about what kind of momentum the king of Youdu was when he unified Nanming, but didn't there still be a heartless marquis and a demon lord? Even if you don't have the ambition to dominate the world, and you just want to retire after getting rid of the enemy, and don't ask the facts, your existence is a threat, especially those who have ambitions, in their eyes, it can't be tolerated. ”
"The trees want to be quiet and the wind doesn't stop......," I sighed.
"If only you could understand that." Ji Zongbu said. "And you've always regarded me as an enemy, but I've always treated you as an apprentice, do you know why?"
I was stunned when I heard this, looked at him puzzled and asked, "Why?" ”
"Because looking at the changes in the situation in the world, in the depths of the storm, only you are still like a human being." Ji Zongbu said lightly.
Like a person?
I shook my head and said, "That's because you didn't see Sister Yu and them, including Aunt Jinyue, I am not as good as them." ”
Ji Zongbu nodded. "You can think of taking these people to the Yellow River Ancient Road and surviving the war for so long, which really surprised me to arrive."
"They've been helping me." I corrected him. "From the first day they came to this world, I almost didn't deliberately help them, but my mother has been helping me everywhere, whether it's Sister Yu, or Hua Qiyan, Aunt Jinyue, when I didn't stand firm on my heels, it was they who helped me to the present, and I always owe them."
Looking at Ji Zongbu's deep gaze, I took a deep breath and asked, "You told me so much, and you still don't want me to fight the idea of the Blood Saint, right?" ”
Ji Zongbu shook his head. "You have already killed three of the ten blood saints of the Yellow River Ancient Road, and there are seven more, except for the one in Yunxi, you can shoot the others at will, I will never say the second word."
"It's my big brother." I looked at him and said.
Ji Zongbu was stunned for a moment, then nodded. "Exactly."
The speculation in my mind was answered in the affirmative, without much surprise and shock, just muttering and nodding, a little dull in my brain.
"Letting your eldest brother refine into a Blood Saint is also to consider letting him live, otherwise, the blood attraction that will become a blood sacrifice will be eaten by the Blood Saint, no matter what, he is at least still alive." Ji Zongbu said on the side.
"Then he doesn't recognize me anymore, does he?" I asked.
"I know it, but I can't control the killing in my body*, I know that you will definitely come, so I have been waiting for you here, lest you two brothers kill each other." Ji Zongbu said.
I shook my head bitterly and said: "Even if the two of us don't see each other today, there will always be a day when we meet, as long as he obeys the orders of the King of Youdu or the Eastern Emperor Taiyi, and the brothers kill each other, I'm afraid he won't be able to escape." ”
"Have you made up your mind?" Ji Zongbu asked me.
I nodded. "But not now."
"You want to save your eldest brother for last?"
"Hmm."
Ji Zongbu looked at me deeply and said, then nodded. "And where are you going next?" Shuofang City? ”
"Hmm." I said.
"You also know that Blood Saint in Shuofang City." Ji Zongbu said.
I chuckled, looked up and asked, "Who?" ”
"Haunting Dust." Ji Zongbu said.
"Haunting dust? How could it be her? ”
In this phoenix tower, a woman who is exactly the same as Wei Junyao will become the head of the top ten blood saints?
"It's her." Ji Zongbu said lightly. "This woman's desire for power and power can be described as the best body for refining the Blood Saint, and as the woman of the King of the Hidden Capital, her body has already been tempered countless times, and she is no longer the simple woman you knew before."
"And what you need to pay more attention to is that although Yingchen is now the Blood Saint of Shuofang City, the entire Shuofang City has not been affected by the Blood Sacrifice Array, after you go, in addition to facing her, you also have to deal with many old opponents, you should be more careful yourself, don't walk for such a long time, and finally end up in a small Shuofang City."
Hearing this, I nodded, then stood up, patted the dust on my body, and said to Ji Zongbu: "There will be a period later." ”
Ji Zongbu was still sitting on the ground, nodding with a smile. "There will be a date later."
But just as I was about to turn around and leave the blood mist, I heard him say behind me: "Before you come back, I will find a way to save your eldest brother, even if fratricide is inevitable, but before it happens, the efforts that should be made must be done after all." ”
I froze, clenched my fists, nodded emphatically, and strode away.
The moment his body left the blood mist, he saw Sun Jiuli's nervous face, pacing back and forth, and after seeing me, he said happily: "You can figure it out." ”
I glanced back at the thick blood mist and said, "Let's go." ”
"Let's go?" Ruyi glanced at me puzzled.
I nodded. "Well, let's go to Shuofang City first, and I'll come back here later."
Although the two of them didn't know what I had experienced in the blood mist, they didn't ask much, and immediately set off and rushed in the direction of Shuofang City.
Along the way, I didn't speak, and my mind kept recalling the words that Ji Zongbu said to me in the blood mist.
Ji Zongbu didn't mean to harm me.
Otherwise, with the current strength of him and my eldest brother, the two of them will join forces to attack me, and even if I don't die, I will at least lose half my life so that I can escape.
But instead of doing this, he told me many things that I didn't know and solved many of my doubts.
And no matter what he means, at least I know very well in my heart now that he is not completely with the King of Youdu, and it would be best if he could find a way to rescue the eldest brother during the time we were away.
For my silence all the way, neither Ruyi nor Sun Jiuli took the initiative to ask, and when I was halfway through the journey, I told them about seeing Ji Zongbu in the blood mist.
Ruyi didn't know Ji Zongbu, so he didn't have much reaction, but Sun Jiuli was different, not only did he know Ji Zongbu, but he also knew Ji Zongbu's identity and origin well, and after hearing that the blood saint in Yunxi was my eldest brother, he opened his mouth wide and didn't say a word for a long time.
And he knows the identity of the number one blood saint in Shuofang City, according to Sun Jiuli's words, if the number one blood saint in Shuofang City can defeat him, then it is equivalent to being able to cut off one of the arms of the King of Youdu.
