Chapter 570 Killing God?
Fashi looked at Yu Cang and swallowed all the dry food in his mouth that he had not had time to swallow.
Yu Cang.
This name... sounds familiar, but I don't know where I've heard it.
However, seeing that Lou Yan's first reaction was to hide behind Yu Cang... I'm afraid this young man is definitely not simple.
Both Du Yanran and Qiu Jindong were undoubtedly stronger than Yu Cang, and the distance between them was quite close just now. Even so, Lou Yan still chose Yu Cang.
Thinking of this, Fashi smiled and bowed to Yu Cang, saying, "I am Fashi, the humble monk, and I am honored to meet you, benefactor."
Yu Cang nodded: "Hello."
Immediately, he turned to look at Lou Yan: "Just now, you called him brother?"
"...Hmm." Lou Yan took a deep breath. "Once upon a time, his last name was Lou... Of course, that was only once. Ever since he became a reincarnated spirit, he no longer had a name of his own."
Fashi's expression remained calm: "Under the Changsheng Seat, this is the way it should be."
Lou Yan had no intention of letting him go. He pointed his finger and said, "He knows everything the Imperial Master has done... He's the Imperial Master's man!"
As soon as these words were spoken, Fashi's face stiffened slightly.
Yu Cang and the others were not surprised. They just looked at Fa Shi calmly, waiting for his explanation.
Under the gaze of several people, Fashi quickly regained his composure. He looked around and said, "Hmm... is the interrogation time starting now? But I haven't eaten enough..."
"I can give you some more time to recall your memories, or to organize your words," Qiu Jindong said, "but I think since you came here on your own initiative, the story you need to tell must have already been made up - so we can waste less time."
Fashi: "...Don't say such harsh words...Okay, okay, then, what do you want to know?"
"Let's start with the simple ones." Qiu Jindong said directly, "Why are you here?"
"Hmm... the first question is indeed easier to answer than I thought." Fashi said, "I naturally came here to seek divine grace... Fellow donors, don't you want to know what divine grace is?"
No one spoke.
Qiu Jindong took out a cigarette from somewhere and lit it. Amidst the smoke, he just looked at Fashi silently.
It can be seen that Fa Shi really wants to interact with them, but Qiu Jindong and others do not have this intention.
"...Okay, that's really boring." Fashi sighed, "Then I'll make it my own—the Hunter Clan's Immortality Sect. You should already know about it... But now, this Immortality Sect has become a shell possessed by the Desolate Cult. It exists in name only."
As soon as these words were spoken, Lou Yan's face immediately turned ugly.
Originally, although the probability was very high, it was ultimately just a guess.
The Changsheng Sect is the state religion of the Hunter Clan, affecting every aspect of the Hunter Clan. Once this sect is controlled... the Hunter Clan will be almost doomed.
Looking at Lou Yan's expression, Fashi's eyes dimmed slightly, but he did not stop.
"The Desolate Sect's erosion of the Longevity Sect began a long time ago, but it has been more open in recent years... Do you know the Desolate God?"
Qiu Jindong nodded: "This place was created by the God of Desolation."
"That's right." Fashi said, "The national teacher... tampered with the scriptures of the Changsheng Sect. Now, the God of Wilderness is the incarnation of Changsheng's 'Sijie'. He spreads disasters in the human world to punish the descendants of the sinners who went unpunished back then.
"The Imperial Master said that when all the criminals are executed, Changsheng will forgive his previous transgression and awaken once again on the top of Lingguang Mountain, bringing true peace to the world."
Qiu Jindong's expression changed slightly.
He said, "It sounds like you don't quite believe it."
"Of course, although I am young, I am still a spiritual man of the present age. How could I be deceived by a person like the Imperial Master who has evil intentions?"
"He's lying! He's in cahoots with the Imperial Master!" Lou Yan said immediately. "He's the Imperial Master's accomplice, and he even tried to stop me when I was trying to escape from the Immortal Tent!"
Facing this accusation, Fashi said calmly: "Lou Yan... my mortal relative, if you don't do this, how can you awaken the true immortality?"
Lou Yan was stunned: "What?"
"The Hunter Tribe's calamity can only be resolved by the Hunter Tribe themselves," Fashi said. "If we allow outsiders to interfere, the Hunter Tribe will only become the next ancient nation in the Mountain Realm. So, of course, I must stop you."
"Do you still think I'm a child who can be fooled? Why didn't you think about this when you helped that Sa Jue massacre the people of the Hunter Tribe?!"
“…Infinite and eternal life.”
Fashi clasped his hands together and gently closed his eyes.
"All living beings in this world are but specks on Changsheng's robe. If killing can bring compassion to Changsheng, then it is worth it..."
When Lou Yan heard this, he clenched his fists tightly and his body began to tremble.
He was about to say something when Qiu Jindong suddenly said, "Alright... I don't have time to watch you debate the scriptures. Fashi, you haven't given your explanation yet."
"…I'm sorry, I'm being rude."
Fashi's emotions didn't seem to fluctuate much, which was in stark contrast to Lou Yan, whose face was already flushed.
"Since the Wild God descended upon this 'Blessed Land', many believers have come here seeking divine grace, or willingly accepting punishment... Most of them died at the hands of wild beasts. Unfortunately, their piety was dedicated to a false god.
"However, Changsheng is watching over everything, and this is their destined fate."
Fashi paused, and then said:
"As the current spirit year, I naturally have to seek the guidance of 'longevity'... However, I came here mainly to find the traces of longevity."
Qiu Jindong frowned slightly: "Why are there traces of immortality here?"
"...Of course there is." Fa Shi said as a matter of course, "Didn't you sense it? This isn't a blessed land, but a battlefield... That desolate god is fighting something, and he's been defeated.
"Although the God of Wilderness is a false god, his strength is indeed extremely powerful. He can defeat such a being... Looking at the entire Blue Planet, only Changsheng should be able to do so. He must have sensed the usurpation and is gradually awakening..."
"Puchi." Yu Cang on the side suddenly laughed out loud.
Fashi turned his head and asked, "What's wrong?"
"It's okay, just continue."
Yu Cang said nothing.
It’s bad, Chao Ci Cheng was born.
Fashi: "...Even if it's not immortality, there must be a weakness of the God of Desolation here."
Faced with such remarks, Yu Cang kept smiling.
Looking for the weakness of the wild god?
It's meaningless, and there is no weakness of the God of Wilderness here.
Being able to say such words, it is obvious that Fashi's understanding of the God of Wilderness is quite shallow... But it is normal. If the God of Wilderness had not appeared in front of Yu Cang in person, he would have no way to understand this god.
Looking at Yu Cang's half-smile, Fashi frowned slightly.
What kind of attitude is this?
……never mind.
"So, I came here to seek 'divine grace,' but not the grace of that false god," Fashi said. "You... came here across the Land of Blessing?"
Qiu Jindong nodded: "Yes."
"Then you didn't pass through the center of the battlefield?"
“Yes.”
"You didn't find anything?" Fashi frowned. "Changsheng must have left some instructions there! That might be the chance for Changsheng to wake up!"
Autumn is approaching winter and there is a moment of silence.
He glanced at Yu Cang and said:
"...It wasn't Changsheng who defeated the God of Wilderness."
"Do you know who it is?" Fashi looked at Qiu Jindong's expression and said, "Tell me."
"You don't need to know."
"...The Immortal Tent is now completely under the control of the Desolate Sect. You should also know that this won't be a simple exchange, right?" Fashi's expression became more serious. "The environment within the Immortal Tent is complex. If you tell me this information, we can cooperate."
"How to cooperate?"
"The Imperial Master has no defenses against me. I can provide you with information secretly."
"so……"
Qiu Jindong pondered for a moment, and then looked at Yu Cang again.
Yu Cang smiled.
Directly said: "It's me."
Fashi turned around and asked, "Do you know who it is?"
"It's me."
Fashi was stunned: "You what?"
Yu Cang sighed: "It was me who defeated the God of Desolation."
“…” Fashi was silent.
After a long while, he took a deep breath.
"Donor...even if you don't want to cooperate, there's no need to joke with me..."
Qiu Jindong: “It’s him.”
Fashi: "...Do you all think that I am easy to deceive?"
Yu Cang said calmly: "The God of Desolation is just a myth, not rare."
“…”
Fashi looked around.
But I found that everyone looked very serious.
But how is this possible?
Their hunting tribe has been in seclusion for how many years... Does the outside world no longer take myths seriously?
Fashi shook his head. "If you really have the power to defeat the God of Desolation, then just go find him. The Desolate Sect can be destroyed in a snap. Why act like this now?"
Qiu Jindong: "..."
Yu Cang looked to the side.
Seeing the two people's reactions, Fashi was stunned for a few seconds, and then his eyes suddenly widened: "Ah? Don't say it, I was right?"
"It's not that simple." Yu Cang said, "Yan Country has many things to deal with, and the God of Desolation is just one of them."
At this moment, Fashi fell into a long silence.
The "one of them" that Yu Cang mentioned is now almost destroying the Hunter Tribe...
Are you serious? Or are you just trying to bluff him...
After a long while, he hesitated and said:
"But even so, you are so young..."
"You don't need to know the specific details." Yu Cang's eyes changed, "I can guarantee that this is the truth. As for you - we do need some cooperation, but it's not just with you."
Fashi frowned: "Do you have anyone else in the Hunter Clan? But no matter who it is, it's impossible for them to provide more than I can."
"No? Not necessarily. And anyway, I can trust him, but not you."
Yu Cang looked straight into Fashi's eyes. His words had an inexplicable aura that made it difficult for Fashi to remain calm in front of Yu Cang.
The person he was talking about was naturally Wen Yang.
Yu Cang believed in Wen Yang, not because of his loyalty to Yan State, but because of his character and instincts.
Yu Cang is Wen Yang's only chance of survival, and he will not give up.
As for Fashi... from the few words he had just exchanged with Lou Yan, he already knew what kind of person he was.
Fashi: “You…”
"Let me guess." Yu Cang didn't give Fashi a chance to speak. "By now, your Imperial Master should have ambushed people on every route we take to the Immortal Tent, right?"
"Um……"
"The Imperial Master didn't think we would reach the Immortal Tent via this route, so this route has the fewest ambushes. You're here because of the Imperial Master's orders, but he doesn't expect you to accomplish anything—the Imperial Master doesn't trust you, or perhaps you're just bait."
“…”
At this point, Fashi has fallen silent.
While speaking, Yu Cang has been looking into Fashi's eyes - now, Fashi's eyes are no longer as calm as at the beginning.
Yu Cang: "Which type do you think you are?"
Yu Cang's imperial heart has been quietly opened, and the weeping girl has also maximized her emotional perception ability, always paying attention to Fa Shi's emotions.
Before this question was asked, Yu Cang's guess had already been confirmed.
This guess is based on Taichu's calculations.
The logic behind this is very simple... The Imperial Master doesn't know which route they will take to reach the Longevity Tent, so if there are ambushes, there should be ones on every route.
Although the God-Condemned Wasteland is dangerous, once an ambush is set up, the effect will be the best. The National Master should not have failed to think of this.
So there is only one possibility - the national teacher believes that normally they would not go to the Shenquanhuang ruins, and once they go here, it means that Yu Cang and others have guessed that there will be ambushes on the road and must have prepared in advance. In this case, it is basically impossible for the sneak attack to succeed.
So, this path is completely safe, but there will be a legal explanation.
He prepared an excuse in advance, creating the illusion of discord with the imperial teacher, and after getting close to him, he would probe for intelligence, and perhaps even infiltrate the enemy, and at the critical moment, pass on false information as an "informant."
Or maybe, it was just because the national teacher didn't trust him and sent him to die.
Whatever the possibility, there is no need for them to cooperate.
After saying this, Fashi lowered his head slightly in front of Yu Cang and remained silent for a long time.
After a while, he said, "I can only say... I didn't lie to you."
"Don't try that on me." Yu Cang remained unmoved.
Ever since Zulong Snow Mountain was almost cheated by that person, he would be more careful about everything he thought about.
"Okay." Fashi took a deep breath. "So, what you just said was indeed meant to amuse me?"
"I didn't lie to you either."
The corner of Fashi's mouth twitched.
He was now certain that Yu Cang had seen through him and treated him as a clown, making fun of him with random nonsense.
He almost believed it... That is to say, no matter how talented Yu Cang is, he can't defeat an opponent like the God of Wilderness.
"It was indeed the Imperial Master who asked me to appear here... but it was also because I've been staying in the Blessed Land recently, and the Imperial Master gave me a mission." Fashi said, "My purpose is genuine, and I don't share the same aspirations as the Imperial Master."
"so what?"
"So, we can cooperate more openly." Fashi's expression turned serious. "You came to the Longevity Tent to inquire about Emperor Khan's current health condition, right?"
Yu Cang remained noncommittal: "One of them."
"I can take you to see the Emperor Khan... Of course, you will suspect that this is a siege set up by me and the Imperial Master, so - to show my sincerity, before that, I will..."
Fashi paused, then took a deep breath and spoke, emphasizing each word:
"I will. Kill the Imperial Master first!"
Yu Cang narrowed his eyes: "You?"
"Of course—you can kill the gods, so why can't I kill the Imperial Master?"
