Chapter 570 Causes and Consequences
As Jiang Ci listened, an indescribable feeling welled up in his heart, a mixture of emotions that was hard to describe.
"And then what?"
Jiuli Zhenjun looked at her deeply and sighed, "A large part of the immortals stood on the opposite side of the Empress of Luck. They decided that since she could not give the best luck to the immortal land, she was not worthy of being worshipped as the master by the immortal land..."
"The immortals waged war against the Empress of Luck and dealt with her in the most brutal way."
Jiang Ci asked: "What method?"
Jiuli Zhenjun frowned and said, "Cut the body into pieces and offer it as a sacrifice."
Jiang Ci's face darkened: "What the hell?!"
"The Immortal Land believes that as long as the body of the Luck Empress is cut into pieces and buried in different places in the Immortal Land, the Luck will be bestowed upon the Immortal Land."
“So this is why the Empress of Fortune’s soul was about to be shattered?” Jiang Ci felt horrified, and a bloody scene of the immortals dismembering the Empress of Fortune popped up in his mind unconsciously.
So many immortals actually cruelly killed the Empress of Fortune, dismembered her body and buried her as sacrifices in various places in the immortal land, just to make her body a better nutrient for the immortal land.
So cruel!
Jiuli Zhenjun nodded: "Yes, if your master hadn't rushed to save the Empress of Luck, her soul would have been reduced to ashes."
"No wonder Master was seriously injured. He must have fought his way into the encirclement of the immortals with his own strength and saved the last ray of the soul of the Empress of Fortune." Jiang Ci suddenly missed the old man.
Jiuli Zhenjun continued, "After the news of the death of the Empress of Luck spread from the Immortal Land, the immortals who supported her started a war in the Immortal Land in order to avenge her. Unfortunately, they were no match for the immortals who had already obtained some of the luck, and were eventually defeated and thrown into the Immortal Prison Land in the Lower Realm, where they were tortured with the shackles of time."
After hearing this, Jiang Ci finally understood the whole story: "What about you? Are these immortals from the South Sea also demoted?"
Jiuli Zhenjun shook his head: "No, we came here voluntarily."
"We are neutrals and do not participate in the dispute between the Empress of Luck and the Immortal Land. For us, no matter whether we are in the Immortal Land or the mortal world, we only wish to choose a quiet and peaceful paradise to practice in seclusion."
"Later, it was your master who told me that the greater the ability, the greater the responsibility. The battle for the immortal land is bound to affect the fortune of the mortal world. At that time, no matter whether we, the scattered immortals, stand neutral or not, we are all insiders. The so-called non-competition is just an escape."
"So, Xiaoci, your choice in the future is crucial. If you choose to stand on the side of the Sinful Immortal, the Immortal Land will inevitably start an unprecedented war."
"But if you choose to keep quiet and treat everything that happened to the former Empress of Fortune as if it never happened, the Immortal Land will still not let you go."
Jiang Ci's face darkened: "Then it's wrong for me to do it, and it's also wrong for me not to do it. What should I do?"
Jiuli Zhenjun thought for a moment and said, "Just remember what the Luck Queen said."
"The prosperity of the human race is the result of the great fortune of heaven and earth. It cannot be destroyed."
Jiang Ci said unhappily: "Of course I know that the human race cannot be destroyed."
Otherwise, she would not have chosen to cut off the country's destiny in order to save future generations.
Perhaps the Empress of Destiny's persistence is affecting her after her reincarnation.
Jiang Ci paused, "The corpse of the Empress of Fortune..."
Jiuli Zhenjun said truthfully: "It is still sealed in various regions of the immortal land."
Jiang Ci said angrily, "It's bad enough that they robbed her of her luck, but they also cut her into pieces and used them as sacrifices. I'm really impressed. Are their brains filled with shit? How could they come up with such an idea?"
"Since she is the Empress of Fortune and in charge of the fortune of heaven and earth, then everything she does must be in accordance with the laws of heaven and earth."
"You don't dare to blame the heavens, so you take it out on the Empress of Luck. How shameless!"
"They are immortals. Are there any immortals who are so selfish, cruel and heartless?"
Jiuli Zhenjun sighed and said, "There is no other way. In the Dharma Ending Age, everyone wants to protect themselves."
"Does it mean that in order to protect yourself, you have to kill others? Is this worthy of being called an immortal?"
Jiang Ci became angrier and angrier as he spoke, with a fierce murderous look in his eyes: "I really want to overthrow the immortal land and crush these hypocritical hypocrites!"
Jiuli Zhenjun was at a loss whether to laugh or cry, and said, "The mortal world thinks that the immortals are all pure and simple-minded, but that's not the case."
"The Immortal Land not only has immortals who are naturally born from heaven and earth, but also immortals who are cultivated by humans, demons, spirits, and monsters."
"The Immortal Land is actually just a Shura Field that is larger than the Middle Thousand Worlds."
"Becoming an immortal only means that they have the ability, but it does not mean that they are all upright and selfless."
"Xiaoci, if one day you want to return to the fairyland, you must return in the most honorable manner, otherwise I would rather you stay in the lower world."
Jiang Ci suddenly thought of something: "By the way, Master Zhenjun, what's going on with Jiang Wan?"
"I have met my senior brother in the Jiang Clan. He is the immortal behind the Jiang Clan. He advised me to transfer the world-shaking energy to Jiang Wan. Is this also Master's arrangement?"
Jiuli Zhenjun was hesitant.
"Master, you've even told me my true identity, what are you still afraid of? Just tell me everything at once!"
"Your master once told you your fortune. According to the thirty-six hexagrams, all of them were bad."
Jiang Ci's heart was shocked: "Thirty-six hexagrams, all of them are ominous..."
How unlucky she is, so many hexagrams are bad.
It is conceivable that the result cannot be changed.
Jiuli Zhenjun looked at her steadily and said, "Your master wants to protect you and prevent you from becoming a victim of the battle for the immortal land again."
"That Jiang Wan, she's your replacement."
Jiang Ci understood it all at once, "Master thinks that the amazing luck in my body will attract the covetousness of the immortal land one day, and they will attack me again, so he arranged a substitute in advance. It's Jiang Wan, right? As long as I transfer the amazing luck to her, she will die in my place?"
Jiuli Zhenjun nodded: "That's about the same reason."
"That's not right. Master has never harmed an innocent person. Jiang Wan may not be a good person, but his crime does not deserve death. How could he take the life of an innocent person in exchange for my life?"
“That doesn’t make sense.”
Jiuli Zhenjun said faintly: "Why do you think it was her?"
Jiang Ci shook his head: "I don't know."
"That Jiang Wan used to be a maidservant serving the Luck Queen. The reason why the Luck Queen was successfully plotted against by the fairies was because this maidservant and the fairies worked together to give the Luck Queen a slow-acting poison that was difficult to detect. By the time the Queen found out, it was already too late!"
Jiuli Zhenjun said angrily: "After your master found out that it was her, he beat the maid to death and threw her soul into hell to suffer. It was not until your master needed a substitute that he sent her to reincarnate."
Jiang Ci: “…”
No wonder she disliked Jiang Wan, it turned out that he had harmed her in her previous life.
Jiang Wan totally deserved it.
Jiuli Zhenjun said: "Your Senior Brother Taihang should also be arranged by your master to go to the immortal land, the purpose is to make the immortals believe that Jiang Wan is the reincarnation of the empress."
