Chapter 196 The Evil Ghost Speculates the Reason for Qi Jing's Amnesia

Qi Jing felt very uncomfortable when Gu Zhou suddenly stared at him. "Why are you looking at me? I don't remember anything."

The evil ghost was also very curious. He asked Qi Jing, "Godfather, why did you lose your memory?"

Qi Jing shook his head to indicate that he didn't know. "Can you please stop calling me godfather? I feel uncomfortable!"

"If not godfather, what should I call him?"

"You can call me uncle!" Qi Jing's eyes sparkled. He liked this name very much.

The evil ghost remained silent and asked, "What else do you want to know?"

Qi Mo said, "History says that you were executed by the Imperial Master?"

"Godfather wouldn't kill me. I committed suicide." The evil ghost tilted his head. "The year after I killed the goddess, another crazy goddess came. This time, she was even more outrageous. She said she wanted to reform me."

Qi Shuo was speechless. "Is it always best not to use love to influence you?"

The evil ghost nodded and said, "I probably killed four or five of them. I got tired of killing them. My adoptive father happened to predict that Xiao Qi would be reincarnated soon, so I simply committed suicide and went to find Xiao Qi."

It really sounded a bit outrageous. Gu Zhou couldn't help but ask, "After you died, did you see your uncle again?"

The evil ghost nodded and said, "My adoptive father gave me a bead, saying it could lead me to Xiao Qi. I haven't seen him since. But I know where he went."

This sentence perked up everyone, and Qi Jing asked expectantly, "Why was I there?"

"I went to fight the Heavenly Dao." The evil ghost thought seriously for a moment. "That was the tenth year since I found Xiao Qi. The heavens sent down a divine punishment, cutting off the immortal path of the living beings in the mortal world. After that, no cultivators or monsters could become immortals. Maybe I lost the fight and even lost my memory."

Qi Jing retorted angrily, "How could I lose! I will never lose to the way of heaven!"

"Then I don't know. Anyway, you said you were going to cause trouble for Tiandao, and then you disappeared. I've been looking for more than ten years and haven't found any clues. I thought you were dead, so I didn't look for you again." The evil ghost spread his hands. "When I first met Xuanmen, I thought it was you. I went to look for it and it was Gu Xuanyi. I was too lazy to fight him, so I left. I was a little unsure when I first met you. The difference is quite big."

Gu Zhou couldn't help but wonder, "What was my uncle like before he lost his memory?"

The evil ghost's brows were tinged with a smile. "He's quite good at acting. In front of people, he's stern and serious, but behind people's backs, he's mumbling and playing around more than Xiao Qi and me. He's also particularly afraid of dogs."

Qi Jing's face fell, "Are you making fun of me?"

"No, you're overthinking it." The evil ghost answered honestly, "But you did tell me why you're afraid of dogs."

This made Gu Zhou very interested, "Why are you afraid of dogs?"

"I was bitten by a dog, and it was a very tragic one. He didn't say why he was bitten, and I wasn't allowed to ask." The evil ghost was a little discouraged. Even after a thousand years, he was still curious. After all, in his eyes, Qi Jing was omnipotent, so how could he be bitten by a dog.

Others had the same thought, but none of them expressed it.

Qi Jun coughed and looked sideways at Qi Jing, "What are you going to do with this ghost?"

"I don't know," Qi Jing answered truthfully. Although he was certain he knew the ghost, he had no memory of it. Furthermore, this was a thousand-year-old evil ghost. Although it hadn't actively participated in the affairs of the Xuanmen, everyone in the Xuanmen sect definitely knew about the evil ghost. It was obviously unrealistic to release it.

Gu Zhou raised the question again, "What's the situation with Huo Yuanqi's clansmen? I sent someone to Chuzhou to investigate, but there's no clue at all."

"His condition is a bit complicated. I suggest you go and see for yourself. Huo Yuanqi's current condition means he won't live past the age of eighteen."

Qi Jing was puzzled, "Isn't his death a soul exchange?"

"No! I didn't go to Chuzhou, I just heard a few things. He seems to be from a special tribe in Chuzhou, unknown to outsiders. He was sent to be sacrificed at birth, and the sacrificial ceremony was halfway through. Although it was forcibly terminated, he has already been connected to that thing, and eighteen years old is his final deadline."

Almost all the questions that needed to be asked have been asked. Generally speaking, it was the evil cultivator who caused the trouble, and the evil spirits were just watching the show.

He did not take the initiative to participate, nor did he interfere or stop it, but only threatened Qi Jing to save people in the end.

Gu Zhou rubbed his brows with a headache and asked the evil ghost, "What are your plans now?"

"I don't have any plans. I'll go wherever Xiaoqi is. If you want to take me in, that's fine. I have no objection and won't resist." The evil ghost looked at Qi Jing with a smile, "But I hope it's my adoptive father who takes the initiative."

Qi Jing himself hadn't figured out the situation yet and couldn't make up his mind, so he instinctively looked at Gu Zhou.

Gu Zhou was also depressed. "Let's wait until Xuanmen finishes dealing with it before we talk about it."

Qi Jing nodded in agreement, and Gu Zhou also took out the talisman paper and took the evil ghost back again.

"Second Master, Big Brother, Second Brother, what do you want to say?"

Qi Mo put down his phone. He had been looking up information about the evil ghost since just now.

Qi Mo asked, "Time travel? System, and my uncle's amnesia, so it's two hundred years earlier than the eight hundred years we knew before, or even earlier?"

"It always feels like something that only exists in novels. And why is the system we caught before targeting us?" Qi Shuo also asked. This felt a bit too outrageous.

Qi Mo then added, "Not only that, the experiences of Qi Huang and Qi Yue are inexplicably similar to the settings in the novel."

Qi Jun knew some of it before, and although he had some ideas, he had never put them forward. This time he also chose to remain silent and wait for Qi Jing's answer.

Qi Jing glanced at Gu Zhou, and only spoke after seeing him nod, "What would you think if I told you that not only Little Phoenix and Little Yueyue, but you too, are also part of the storyline in the novel?"

Qi Mo and Qi Shuo looked at Qi Jing in unison. Qi Mo frowned and said, "Excuse me, what are the roles of the boss and I?"

"A crazy villain who can't get the love he wants." Gu Zhou looked at the two of them with sympathy. "The kind who were imprisoned, forced, tortured, and ended up in a miserable state."

Qi Mo and Qi Shuo both began to doubt their lives, with Qi Shuo even more uncertain, "Are we that bad?"

"Anyway, this is the plot that Gu Xuanyi received, but judging by the appearance, it won't get to that stage now." Gu Zhou said with his arms folded, "My uncle has recovered his memory before and talked about some related things. Back then, my uncle found the ancestor of the Qi family in large part for this moment."

Qi Shuo raised his eyebrows, "So it's not just us, this generation of the Qi family has had this problem, even in the past eight hundred years."

Gu Zhou nodded, "Second Master too."

Qi Jun curled his lips when he was suddenly called out, "I'm not married."

"So the plot can be changed." Qi Mo gave an affirmative answer, otherwise the evil ghost would not have killed the goddess a thousand years ago, and Qi Jun should have gotten married and had children.

"It can be changed, but the Heavenly Dao will find a way to advance the plot. Yuan Ji was bewitched by that system, causing Qi Yue and Qi Xin to compete, leaving behind Lin Youyou, the illegitimate daughter, and the Shen family, all to advance the plot.

But I'm a little confused about the system I caught last time. Logically, your heroine hasn't appeared yet, so why did they arrange someone to capture you?"
