"Did you know all of this long ago?" At the peak of Kunlun, Ye Hongjian stood in front of the tightly shut door of the Immortal Palace and looked at the old man in front of her with an incredulous expression as she asked.
The calm expression on Mr. Wei's face contrasted sharply with Ye Hongjian's current appearance.
He nodded, "Yes."
They had already been in front of the palace gate for some time. After seeing Aowu Xuan'er in front of the palace gate, Ye Hongjian immediately understood. Xu Han had already gone to the Kunlun Immortal Palace. The two of them had tried their best to not be able to open the palace gate of the immortal palace.
Ye Hongjian's mind was exquisite. After a few fruitless attempts, she asked herself why Xu Han was able to open the palace gate of the Immortal Palace, but they were unable to do so. There was an extremely profound formation in front of the Kunlun Immortal Palace. With her, Mr. Wei, and Ah Huang, who was the Demon King, being unable to break through it, Xu Han must not have used brute force to open the formation. In other words, Xu Han had found a way.
After questioning Xuan'er and the others, Ah Huang continued to gesture in front of the door, using his own hand to press down on the door, and then scratching his ears and cheeks as he grinned. Obviously, he wanted to convey Xu Han's intention of pushing the door open with his hand. That was why Ye Hongjian asked.
However, it was this question that allowed Ye Hongjian to know a shocking secret that she had never thought of.
At that time, the old man seemed to have something on his mind. He looked up at the lofty palace gate and responded in a deep voice, "Because the seal on the palace gate was planted by him, the person who tied the bell naturally has to have a way to untie it."
"Xiao Han planted it himself?" These words immediately made Ye Hongjian even more confused. She widened her eyes and looked at the old man, muttering to herself.
Mr. Wei, who knew that he had misspoken, was also silent at that time, but the more he did so, the more strange Ye Hongjian felt. Naturally, she could not help but ask, "Sir, what does this mean?" Isn't this Xiao Han's first time in Kunlun? "How could he plant a seal on this immortal palace here? Furthermore, this formation is so profound. Xiao Han doesn't seem to have much attainments in this formation, so how could he set such a seal?"
The old man who heard this sighed and said, "You should have heard him say that we met in a city on the border of Great Xia."
"Yes." Ye Hongjian nodded, but she did not understand what the old man meant by suddenly mentioning this matter. After all, she could not think of the connection between the two for a time.
The old man lowered his head and murmured, "Actually, that encounter was not an accidental encounter. I carried a hundred thousand mountains on my back. At that time, Demon King Bai Ning from the hundred thousand mountains would often ask me why he had eyes for Xu Hanqing."
"I have told him many reasons. I call Xu Han the evil of the world and the heroic spirit of the past. These are not mistakes, but I know that the real reason is not these. He is my child and Ah Yan's child."
…
"Then why didn't you tell Xiao Han?" Ye Hongjian asked again.
At that time, Mr. Wei revealed a bitter smile. He looked up at the horizon and muttered to himself, "I don't want him to know that it's for his own good."
Ye Hongjian became more and more puzzled. She believed that if Xu Han knew about this, he would definitely be very happy to be reunited with his father. However, what Wei Changming had done on this matter really confused Ye Hongjian. So she frowned and asked, "What does that mean?"
The old man sighed and turned to face the gaze Ye Hongjian gave him, "Because, he is my child and Ah Yan's child, but he is not. To be exact, our child died because of him."
…
At that moment, the hall of the Immortal Palace fell into a deathly silence.
Xu Han slowly sat on the ground, lowered his head, and raised his eyebrows.
"So" After a long time, his bitter voice sounded again. He raised his head to look at the white-robed "Xu Han" and asked, "Am I Mr. Wei's son?"
Hearing this, the white-robed Xu Han laughed, He did not answer Xu Han's question immediately. Instead, he said to himself, "Although it was a little unexpected, you, who originally thought you were a demon, instantly became the son of a Daofather and a Demon Monarch. Although you have some missions, no matter how you look at it, you are still a story of a hero who fought against a demon. Such a story usually has a happy ending. Unfortunately…"
The white-clothed Xu Han shook his head and sighed. However, there was not the slightest regret on his face. Instead, it was filled with mockery and undetectable schadenfreude.
"It's a pity that I'm not a storyteller who relies on the applause of drinkers for a living, and you're not the hero of that story."
"A thousand years ago, they killed Wei Changming's wife and stole the baby. However, this was only the first step of the plan. The Half Demon God Seed was the Heavenly Fate Son of this world. It was born with the blessing of the heavens and earth. As long as such a person was placed in this world, he was destined to encounter countless fortuitous encounters, and his achievements were destined to surpass anyone from ancient times to modern times. "If his mind is normal, when he grows up, it will be enough to pose a threat to the Ghost Valley. If he is really deceived by me and falls into their so-called Devil Dao, then it is more likely that he will create another Ancient Devil that can pierce through the heavens and earth."
"Neither of these is what the Ghost Rice Men want. All they want is a puppet for outsiders to see. A devil that might become me, but will live forever under their control. "As a result, they exterminated the baby's soul and placed the unprecedented powerful body into the depths of this world. It was placed at the edge of the seal that the half-demons had torn apart."
"That child's body was originally the purest half-demon, and it possessed an extremely strong sensitivity to my Origin Energy. And in the thousand years that we were sealed, the two of us attracted to each other and almost merged into one body. As a result, the body that had lost its soul gave birth to new intelligence."
"And that intelligence was the current you."
After saying that, the white-clothed "Xu Han" stopped again. He looked at Xu Han with deep eyes, as if he wanted to catch some expressions that could make him excited from his face. But this time, he was a little disappointed. Xu Han raised his head and looked at the gaze given by the white-robed "Xu Han". His eyes flashed with light, but it was hard for people to understand his thoughts at this moment.
For the first time, the white-robed "Xu Han" was stunned at that time. The expression on his face changed slightly, although this change was not something that Xu Han could capture. However, compared to the changes on his face, the bottom of Xu Han's heart was even more turbulent, and it was difficult to calm down.
Thousands of years of planting cause, ten thousand years of fruit. He had already performed this storytelling scene eighteen times. Every word and every sentence he said had not changed. Every pause, every time he sized it up, it seemed to be evil. In fact, he was speculating on Xu Han. He wanted to make sure that Xu Han was still the same as Xu Han last time.
The Gui Gu Zi were unable to withstand the changes, and he was even more so.
"So?" Xu Han asked in a deep voice.
The same words and tone pulled the white-robed "Xu Han" out of his thoughts and dispelled some of the doubts he had just had.
"Even if my body is the body of Mr. Wei's son, and my spirit soul is nourished by your power, then what? Do you think that after I hear this story and understand my own background, I will bow before you?" Xu Han asked. Then, he stood up.
The white-robed Xu Han shook his head. "Don't you understand? Your intelligence is born from me. We are one. How do I need to bow down to myself?"
Xu Han frowned. He forcefully suppressed the turmoil in his heart when he heard this. At that time, he looked directly at the youth in front of him who was exactly the same as him and said with certainty, "I am me! I am different from you!"
The white-robed "Xu Han" did not have the heart to argue with Xu Han on this issue. He said, "This is the truth. Whether you admit it or not, he will always exist. He deceives himself and others as the inferior roots that only creatures should have. I do not wish for you to do the same."
However, Xu Han said, "Your story is over. I think it's time for us to end this conversation. Don't worry, I won't give Senluo Palace a chance to win, nor will I give the ghost corn in the sky an excuse to destroy the world. Of course, I won't let you have another chance to devour me."
The white-robed Xu Han shook his head in distress. He corrected, "It's not devouring, it's awakening. You and I are originally alone."
"Whatever you say is fine. I will not be bewitched by you, nor will I give you a chance to wake up." After Xu Han finished speaking, his gaze was firm. Obviously, he had overcome all the changes in his state of mind and calmed down in a short period of time.
The white-robed "Xu Han" was not surprised by this. He looked at Xu Han, who seemed to have gone away, and said faintly, "Eighteen times ago, you said the same thing."
Hearing this, Xu Han's heart trembled. He looked at the white-robed "Xu Han" and asked, "What does this mean?"
The white-robed "Xu Han" had a leisurely expression. He glanced at Xu Hanyan and said, "How smart are the Ghost Rice Men? Although they are not in this world, they have deduced countless changes in everything in the world. How can there be a place to count them?" You were born lonely, like a tiger or a leopard, but under intentional arrangements, you met so many people and saw so many things. When those people die in front of you one day, can you still be so firm in your current thoughts? "
As the white-robed "Xu Han" spoke, his footsteps began to move towards Xu Han. Step by step, he continued, "Will you not want to avenge them?" Don't you want to dismember the people in the sky? What would you do? You can only hug me, you can only rely on me. "But it was too late then. This was a lesson you learned through eighteen failures and pain. Don't you understand?"
Xu Ha couldn't hear what he meant, but for some reason, whenever the white-robed "Xu Han" spat out the words "eighteen", Xu Han's body couldn't help but tremble, as if something was about to pop out of his mind.
"What eighteen times?" He looked at Xu Han with a pale face and asked in a dry tone.
At that time, the other party raised his eyebrows. He moved his body closer to Xu Han and narrowed his eyes as he looked at Xu Han. "Eighteen times means that the world has restarted eighteen times. You have lived eighteen times and died eighteen times. This is your nineteenth and final time." "The world can no longer be restarted. He has exhausted all of his strength eighteen times. He is on the verge of breaking."
"This is the final harvest of the Ghost Rice. It is also the beginning of their determination to destroy this world and everything in this world. This is your last chance and mine."
Xu Han's face became even paler. If everything he had heard before could already be considered unimaginable, then the words that he had said from the white-robed "Xu Han" could only be described as shocking. At that moment, his body subconsciously took a step back. He muttered, "This … How is this possible …"
The white-clothed "Xu Han" seemed to have expected Xu Han's reaction long ago. He smiled and said, "Although we have failed eighteen times, this time is different. Everything has changed. As long as we work together, we will definitely be able to turn the tide and jump out of this world's shackles."
Xu Han was still retreating. He remembered the dreams he had once had. In the dreams, he watched his friends fall in front of him one after another, but he was powerless. Those dreams were so real that Xu Han almost couldn't tell the difference between dreams and reality. At this moment, Xu Han realized something when he said those words in white.
The expression in his eyes became somewhat hollow, as if he had fallen into some sort of devil's daze and was unable to extricate himself.
'"Although I don't have the bad roots of deceiving myself and others like a creature, you probably won't believe everything I say for a time, but it doesn't matter. Do you see this pool of blood?" Although that ancient demon didn't succeed in obtaining my arrival, However, I have extracted enough power from me. I am an object beyond the heavens. The revival of this world will not disturb my memories. Every time you come to this Immortal Palace, I will also extract a copy of your memories and store them in this blood. Now, as long as you jump in, you will be able to recover from the eighteen times of despair in this cycle of reincarnation. "Of course, at the same time, the power that once belonged to me in this blood will also surge into your body. You and I will become even more inseparable. What do you want to see?"
At this moment, Xu Han finally regained his senses. He looked at the surging blood in the cave entrance and then at the white-robed "Xu Han" in front of him. He gritted his teeth and took a long time to say, "If I really enter, I'm afraid that will do as you wish, right?"
The white-robed "Xu Han" did not reveal the slightest bit of panic after the plot was exposed. He smiled faintly and said, "This is a gift. With this power, you can summon me when you need me. This is also to protect those you want to protect, isn't it?"
Xu Han remained silent for a long time before finally arriving at the entrance of the cave.
Then, he gritted his teeth and stepped out with one foot…
