"Who sucked it away? I want to know who it was too."
Jiang Yanshu seemed to have completely given up on begging for mercy, and was instead ignited by Lin Che's words.
He struggled angrily twice but couldn't get free.
"I just want to live, I just don't want to die. What's wrong with that? You've already joined the Eight Gates of the Shrine, you've already earned the right to live forever. You let me go, and I just want to be a lonely ghost."
Eternal life again.
It is about the Eight Gates of the Shrine again.
There must be something here that he doesn't know. These royals, these powerful men from the Eight Gates of the Divine Palace, all seem unwilling to say more.
Lin Che said in a deep voice, "Jiang Yanshu, if you want me to let you go, it's not impossible. I have two conditions..."
"What conditions?"
Jiang Yanshu asked anxiously, but then hesitated: "Why should I believe you?"
"Do you still have a choice? As the saying goes, the victor is the king and the loser is the bandit. You've already lost. Why should I insist on your soul being torn apart?"
Jiang Yanshu was speechless for a moment.
Indeed, his life was now in Lin Che's hands, and he had no choice but to trust Lin Che.
"Okay, Lin Che, whether you believe it or not, I never intended to harm you. Really."
Lin Che didn't say much and got straight to the point: "First condition, tell me what sucked your soul away? This shouldn't be a problem for you, right?"
"What about the second condition?"
Lin Che's mouth twitched. Jiang Yanshu was still so cunning. He thought that if he could answer one question after another, even if he couldn't meet the second condition, at least he would make a profit.
"The second condition is that the Human Emperor's Torch must be returned to the Dagan Imperial Family. It bears your mark, and you must erase it."
"no problem."
Jiang Yanshu was surprisingly straightforward and agreed immediately, which actually surprised Lin Che.
Jiang Yanshu seemed to have noticed as well, and explained, "I'm just a remnant soul now. Without a physical body, it will only take ninety-nine days for the mark I left on the Human Emperor's Flame to be erased. A remnant soul can't possess the Human Emperor's Flame."
Lin Che was unable to verify the truth of what he said, and for now, she could only believe Jiang Yanshu.
Of course, after knowing the answer, Jiang Yanshu must be trapped. If there is no effect after ninety-nine days, Jiang Yanshu will be reduced to ashes.
"What's the first question?"
"If I were to tell you the answer to this question, I'm afraid you wouldn't believe it."
Jiang Yanshu wanted to adjust his body, but was suppressed by Lin Che using the "Guixu Zhushen Lu" and he couldn't move at all.
After a long sigh, he whispered:
"Actually, this matter concerns the reputation of the royal family. Although I am a despised descendant of the Jiang family, I do not want to ruin the Jiang family's thousands of years of reputation, and I do not want the Jiang family to bear the eternal infamy..."
Lin Che hadn't expected Jiang Yanshu to bring the matter to this level as soon as he opened his mouth, so of course he listened attentively.
"Eleven years ago, there was a rebellion within the royal family, Prince Yan's rebellion. Actually, it wasn't as simple as it seemed. Everything started because the Crown Prince was unwilling to take the throne. Prince Yan forced him to take the throne!"
“What?” Lin Che was shocked again. Aren’t they rebelling to fight for the throne?
How could it be that Prince Yan was forcing him to take the throne because the prince was unwilling to do so?
Isn’t this a bit magical?
"Surprising, right? I was surprised too. All the princes coveted the throne, but the Crown Prince simply refused to sit on it. I even thought for a moment that I had a chance. But during that massacre, I learned the truth. Anyone who sits on the throne has a bad ending. They're nothing more than... fodder for the Great Wall of Fortune!"
"What do you mean? Explain clearly!!"
Jiang Yanshu seemed quite pleased with himself, especially when he saw Lin Che's shocked expression. He laughed a few times before shouting at the top of his lungs:
"The Great Wall of Fortune, everything is because of the Great Wall of Fortune!"
"Every seventh-rank warrior, every martial art they cultivate, all owes its existence to the Great Wall of Luck. Eleven years ago, it was because the Crown Prince learned this secret. He knew that after ascending to the throne, he would be targeted by the Eight Gates of the Divine Palace and would become fodder for the Great Wall of Luck. He didn't want that; he wanted to pursue the supremacy of martial arts. But am I willing to succeed to the throne? What do you think of me?"
"Why have I, the Second Prince, suffered humiliation for so many years? I fought tooth and nail for it, but they humiliated me in every way. When they found out that the throne would cost him his life, they just let me die? Why? Why?"
Lin Che didn't care about his royal family's grudges because the waters here were too deep.
Even if what Jiang Yanshu said now was not necessarily true, the matter about the Great Wall of Destiny was very bizarre, like a fairy tale, but Lin Che believed it was true.
And, in an instant, he seemed to connect all his discoveries.
"You mean, during the seventh-grade repaying period, the aura emanating from you, and even... even those weapons, the imperial palace, and the divine python, is also due to the Great Wall of Luck?"
Although this was a question, Lin Che didn't seem to need an answer.
Countless shocking scenes flashed through his mind.
When I first saw the Imperial Palace, the Imperial Mausoleum, and the Imperial Seal, and discovered the lost war spear of the Ten Thousand Demons Nation in the cemetery, all of them emitted a powerful golden light that shot up into the sky...
Later, he saw the seventh-rank warrior emitting golden light, saw Taoist Zhouxu, thousands of bloody people, saw the divine python, and saw Jiang Yanshu's soul in front of him, all of which were emitting golden light...
These are not because they are treasures, nor because they are strong.
Instead, they are all having their "power" absorbed by the Great Wall of Destiny.
This power could be some kind of power from a divine weapon, or the cultivation of a warrior, or the spirit of a primordial spirit...
In short, the Great Wall of Fortune is like an incomparably terrifying giant beast, devouring everything in the world!
"You know, your royal family knows! That's why you all seek immortality. You don't want to sacrifice in vain!"
Countless thoughts collided crazily in Lin Che's mind.
Why did Jiang Shangwu use the art of necromancy to pursue immortality?
The Jiang Yanshu in front of him stole the Human Emperor's legacy and tried desperately to become the successor of the Death Gate. He also wanted immortality.
Including the Shengyun Cave in Yuxu Palace, it is also pursuing immortality!
These high-ranking figures should know that they cannot fight against the Great Wall of Destiny, and they want to avoid this fate.
So, they all took the same path.
Pursuit of immortality!!
It seemed that in an instant, he arrived above the clouds in the sky, overlooking the entire earth.
He saw the Great Wall of Destiny stretching for millions of miles, he saw the lights of thousands of homes in the human world, including Dagan, the Sixteen Prefectures of Yanyun, the coastal countries, the Cangwu Abyss, Mobei, and so on.
As the Great Wall of Fortune inhaled and exhaled, countless lights went out, and countless rays of light shot into the sky, flying towards the Great Wall of Fortune like a meteor shower...
This is the biggest secret in the world!!!
