Luo Wusheng's thoughts began to become confused.
He did not doubt that the white-haired little girl in front of him wanted to save him from the death curse caused by Buddhism... As long as he combined the events caused by the other party in the past few days, thought about the cards he had in his hand at the moment because of the other party, and recalled everything that happened with the other party, he would not be too wary of this chess player.
If this is also a scam, then I guess I have no choice but to accept it.
If even the rare friendly forces around you who have the ability to play against the enemy are traitors, your hope of breaking the situation will be really slim.
But…
"Why?"
Changing one's fate is for the purpose of survival, so one must never let everything develop as planned.
As for his cheap master, the other party might not want the demon-slaying rebellion to happen, which was barely acceptable.
But what is the purpose for Yue Xuanji
She was supposed to be someone who had nothing to do with all this.
"My reasons... I can't tell you yet."
For some reason, the white-haired loli shrank back again, bit her lower lip lightly, and showed some gestures that Luo Wusheng had seen from this girl for the first time:
"Your master's purpose should be more than that... Compared to me who just came into contact with you recently, that person's plan for you is more far-reaching, but I don't know much about the details, and I have sworn an oath to keep it secret."
Luo Wusheng was silent for a moment.
He was not surprised to get such a reply.
Even if Yue Xuanji could explain all the details at this moment, he might not be able to understand it given the realm he was currently at.
But one thing is certain, that is, I should continue to trust the God-transforming Loli in front of me
(That being said, if it weren’t for a series of events that later on that allowed me to obtain information related to Buddhism and some cards to fight against Buddhism from the headless Buddha statue, I really wouldn’t be able to connect what happened before with the change in my fate…)
No matter how I look at it, I feel like someone is playing tricks on me.
And until now I still don’t understand the meaning of some things happening.
Like Yue Xuanji provoking the little fox to express her feelings for her, or a certain bald coachman making it possible for her to meet Shuangxue's wife, or the inexplicable marriage contract with the Empress...
As if seeing through Luo Wusheng's thoughts, Yue Xuanji spoke softly.
“… Do you know what it takes to truly change your destiny?”
The sudden question made Luo Wusheng stunned. After thinking carefully, he tentatively answered: "Let the things that are related to me and should have happened in this world no longer happen?"
“That’s not wrong…”
The young girl, who was the owner of Tianji Tower, stretched out her body which had just shrunk, shook her head gently, and then turned around and smiled again.
"Forget it. Suddenly I don't want to tell you anymore. If I tell you now, the next development won't be interesting."
"Let me think about it... I'll pick out something to tell you next."
"For example, what you asked me about earlier, the thing that was created by the combination of your dragon luck and the human luck suppressed by the stupid fox... Oh, I can't say too much about this, so I'll just tell you a little. It's related to your master, and it can improve your luck and the variables in your fate at critical moments."
"And... by the way, that Mo Bai fairy from the Jianghu Alliance... have you forgotten about it?"
… …
To be honest, Luo Wusheng thought that after learning more things and having more doubts, there might be some rift in his relationship with Yue Xuanji.
After all, the other party had no intention of completely resolving his doubts, nor did she let him understand her real purpose.
But now he felt that he was overthinking.
Is it really necessary to ask more questions
At least he could feel that the white-haired loli in front of him was actually helping him change his fate of dying in the Demon-Slaying Rebellion.
And only after completing this step will the other party's true purpose be exposed... It is too early for me to worry about this since I haven't even survived the Demon-Slaying Rebellion.
In this case, wouldn’t it be nice to hold on to this big thigh first
After all, we have touched lips together, and I still owe him twenty Star-Moon Jades... As the saying goes, debt relationship is the most reliable relationship in the world. Before I am forced to repay with my body, this relationship will not break, right
So Luo Wusheng quickly regained his composure.
It even seemed that his relationship with Yue Xuanji became closer during this conversation.
"So... according to my plan, the biggest problem now is that I can't solve the problem of the mark left by the immortal Buddha in the origin. If he senses that I want to lift the Buddha's ban and break through the Nascent Soul, I guess he will soon make a backup plan..."
Luo Wusheng said this, but he looked at the white-haired loli opposite him with some hope.
It is definitely difficult to solve this big problem with my own ability, and relying on luck is too dependent on one's luck, so I can only...
Please, Xuanji Amen!
However, there was an inexplicable flash of strange color in Yue Xuanji's starry eyes.
“You don’t have to worry about this problem.”
"Um?"
Not worried? But this is the first crucial step in my plan, right
"Don't worry, now that we've talked about it, I'll give you some new tips..."
Luo Wusheng, whose thoughts were exposed, did not blush or feel nervous, but he tilted his ear slightly, somewhat curious about what Yue Xuanji's so-called new hint was.
Thinking about it carefully, the so-called "good luck" last time was basically due to the layout of the owner of Tianji Tower in front of me, which allowed me to now have some preliminary cards to deal with Buddhism.
"You haven't planted the Ancient Phoenix Essence that the stupid fox gave you after you refined it, right? You should have known from the connection after refining that the Demon Tail Ancestral Essence is quite special. It can only be absorbed when you are reborn after death, and the place where you plant it is where you will be reborn after Nirvana..."
"Well, I have already found the most suitable place for you..."
"Qifeng City, once you get there, you will naturally understand where to plant it."
Section 1#Volume 1#Chapter 315 Where are you going, Brother
There is no doubt that the Ancient Phoenix Spirit is one of the most important cards in Luo Wusheng's hand now.
After all, it is a chance to resurrect, and even using it requires extreme caution... If used well, this is the real way to escape, and it is an opportunity to break through the predicament, but if it is not used well, then after using it, you can only wait for the enemy to guard your body in the future.
Luo Wusheng, who knew about various resurrection tragedies from his memories of his previous life, naturally paid more attention to these small details.
Just as Yue Xuanji said, he had already begun to refine the ancient phoenix's spiritual essence and had indeed obtained a lot of information about this resurrection treasure.
There is a reason why it looks like a blood-colored seed.
As long as you plant it, you can set the place where you plant it as the place where you will be resurrected later.
And if he doesn't find a place to plant it, then after he dies, having already refined the ancient phoenix's spiritual essence, he will be resurrected in a random place within a thousand miles of the place of death.
Needless to say, how great the random risk is.
But when it came time to choose a location, Luo Wusheng found it really difficult to make a decision.
Originally, he had thought of planting the Ancient Phoenix Spirit in the old site of Jiange when he was in Jianzhou, but after thinking about it, he still felt that it was not safe enough... If possible, he would rather plant it in the Sword Ancestor Secret Realm, but Xiao Yuli had already returned to Jiange by then.
Later, after the incident with the Sword Ghost, he began to consider whether or not to choose to plant it in the Sword Emperor Secret Realm. However, he was busy sowing and cultivating on another level, and the crack that appeared and mysteriously disappeared on the barrier of the Secret Realm really made him worried, so he decided to put this idea on hold for the time being.
But if there is no better choice in the end, he plans to plant it when he returns to the Sword Emperor Secret Realm to find his wife Frost and Snow in a few days.
But now, our own loli-level goddess-level thigh has provided a new choice.
"…Qifeng City?"
Luo Wusheng's eyes trembled.
What a coincidence? Xiao Yuli had just asked me to go to Qifeng City with her, and the time was set for tomorrow... No, it was already today
Is this the effect of the event-preserving physique that a true protagonist should have
He looked at the white-haired loli across from him who was looking at him with interest.
(Although he said it was calculated, he didn’t act like a fortune teller at all… Is he just not going to pretend now?)
It seems that going to Qifeng City to plant the ancient phoenix spirit is the route that the owner of Tianji Tower has prepared for himself.
"What's there? Could it be true, as the rumors say, that the city has something to do with the ancient phoenix demon? Perhaps it can cause changes in the ancient phoenix spirit in my hand?"
Luo Wusheng felt that his guess was quite reasonable, but Yue Xuanji casually placed a chess piece on the chess table.
The chess piece occupied the center of the chess table. The white-haired loli, who was pressing it lightly with one finger, spoke with a playful smile on her face.
"Do you think I'll tell you?"
"?"
Luo Wusheng was stunned. He thought that he might be able to get the answer from the senior friendly soldier in front of him, or even get a lucky bag like the previous "good luck" event, which he didn't know the use of for the time being but could help him pass the dungeon in the future.
The other party's behavior clearly showed that he knew something but was unwilling to speak.
Are these also secrets that cannot be revealed
But at this moment, Yue Xuanji's cute little face opposite him revealed a cute little arrogant expression and she rolled her eyes at him.
"If you want me to help you more, you have to pay me back what you owe me first, right? You made a lot of money last time, right?"
"Well, we don't have much time this time, so we can put this aside for now..."
"But next time we meet, you have to return at least one of the twenty [One and Only in This World] Star-Moon Jades~ Otherwise... hehe, next time I catch that stupid fox, I won't drag you along~"
Luo Wusheng felt a white and tender little hand pinching his face.
The star-moon jade necklace she wore made a crisp sound.
Then, the figure reflected in his eyes became illusory and disappeared in the next moment.
Touching the place on his face that had been pinched, a strange look appeared in Luo Wusheng's eyes.
This girl is really cute...
Oh, why is the old woman acting like a virgin
… …
Outside Wangxianlou Inn.
Luo Wusheng walked out of the blockade formation that had not been lifted. He looked up and saw that it was still night, but the sky was slightly brighter.
It must be said that this conversation with Yue Xuanji did allow him to gain a lot of information... but also more doubts.
But at least the general outline of the previous incident at Wangxianlou Inn has been sorted out, and more details have been learned.
(There are also some troubles that I haven’t considered before…)
Forget it, let’s put these aside for now and just continue with my original plan before trouble comes.
Not knowing what he was thinking about, Luo Wusheng reached for his waist and took the dagger for sending messages in his hand.
There is already a conversation on it.
"Xiao Yuli is really a little anxious... At this point, there is no need to rush to go to Qifeng City. It's still in time to walk there slowly. There is no need to secretly use teleportation."
Looking at the information on the wooden sword, Luo Wusheng touched his chin and muttered to himself.
Just after a certain white-haired loli left, he stayed in the room alone for a long time, sorting out his confused thoughts due to obtaining a lot of information last night. Until he saw that the time was almost up, he sent a message to Miss Jianxian that he was done and said that he could accompany her to Qifeng City today.
Unexpectedly, the girl replied immediately and said that she was ready and would wait for him directly at the city gate and leave after opening the gate to avoid being bothered by others.
He even said that he had already arranged to leave a letter for the little witch.
As expected of the real protagonist, his efficiency is amazing.
Well, Luo Wusheng actually agreed with what this girl said.
There are indeed not many people on the street at this time. After all, low-level cultivators still account for a relatively large proportion of the population. Cultivators who have not yet reached the foundation-building stage still need a certain amount of sleep to supplement their sleep. It is generally not easy for cultivators who have reached the foundation-building stage to lose their old habits in a comfortable environment like the royal city. Therefore, I don’t need to worry too much about causing a sensation early in the morning like before.
(If anyone notices this, the news that I went to Qifeng City today will probably spread all over the city...)
I still have to decide where to plant the ancient phoenix spirit, and I can't get into any complications now.
Since Xiao Yuli is so excited and has prepared everything, let's just set off.
It’s not good to let the little girl wait too long at the city gate.
But I feel a little embarrassed towards everyone in the Magic Weapon Pavilion. As the big boss, I have to go on a business trip again just after I came back... When I come back, I will probably be mocked in a sarcastic way by my cute junior sister who loves me so much.
"No, why should I feel guilty? It's different from what I promised yesterday. I'm going to Qifeng City for something serious."
This is a matter of life and death, not just a happy date to improve Xiao Yuli's favorability.
