Chapter 676 Homecoming
Di Changan frowned: "What feudal superstition? This is a mythical method."
Ji Xuanwei was furious: "You have absolutely no basis for this."
Di Changan's so-called fortune-telling really depends on pure luck. He believes whatever fortune-telling is told.
However, even if the myths are about people with great fortune, this kind of divination cannot be accurate every time!
“…Really?”
Seeing that he failed to scare Ji Xuanwei, Di Chang'an could only shake his head and sigh.
"Xuan Wei...it's already this late, and you still don't know how to give way to the old man."
Upon hearing this, Yu Cang immediately said, "At this time? What do you mean? Emperor Shenhua, you..."
"Don't be impatient."
Emperor Chang'an Road.
He picked up the wooden sticks on the table one by one.
"When you take over the Soul Card Master Association in the future, you must be patient."
Di Chang'an's tone was very light, with a smile on his lips the whole time he spoke, and his tone was also very calm. But listening to such content... Yu Cang felt that he was making arrangements for his funeral arrangements.
However, Yu Cang took a deep breath and calmed himself down.
That's right, he has to be patient.
Di Changan gathered all the wooden sticks neatly and placed them in a bamboo tube. Only then did he raise his head and look at Yu Cang.
Seeing that Yu Cang had calmed down, he nodded: "That's right."
"…So can you tell me what happened?"
"Nothing has happened that has affected our plans."
While speaking, Di Changan kept looking at Yu Cang.
After a pause——
"Homecoming and dead."
…
!
Hearing this, Yu Cang's pupils suddenly constricted!
Returning home... If he remembered correctly, wasn't it Di Changan's "companion soul"? !
As Emperor Changan's "talent", it is also his "supernatural power" and also a "mythical soul card"!
Even if we put aside the issue of strength, just the fact that he has been with his friend for a thousand years and that he has returned home is of vital importance to Emperor Chang'an!
Having previously interacted with Duan Feng and Aqiu, he knew very well how deep the bond between a soul card master and his companion soul could be.
If this happened to Duan Feng, this proud genius would probably go crazy on the spot...
And in front of him, Di Changan seemed... very calm.
Yu Cang opened his mouth, but didn't know what to say, so he could only remain silent.
Ji Xuanwei looked away. It could be seen that she was trying very hard to maintain her normal state, but unfortunately, the moment Di Changan opened his mouth, tears quickly welled up in her eyes.
After a long time.
Di Changan spoke again:
"Why aren't you talking anymore?"
"You..." Ji Xuanwei swallowed the words he had just said, then gritted his teeth, turned around and left the room.
Yu Cang: "..."
"……well."
Di Changan sighed softly.
"That's not quite right—Homecoming has become one with me."
"Merge into one?"
"Yes." Di Chang'an nodded. "My life is almost over. If I want to continue fighting, this is the only way."
Yu Cang fell silent again.
At this moment, many images flashed through his mind.
When he met Di Chang'an for the first time, La said to himself in his heart that Di Chang'an had already made up his mind to die.
Later, even Di Changan himself said that if he went to fight the God of Wilderness, his chances of winning were zero.
However, after Yu Cang mentioned to Di Chang'an the matter of Roland Kongjie's quota for becoming a god, Di Chang'an changed his words and said that he was 100% sure.
There's a world of difference between zero and 100%... but at the time, Yu Cang didn't notice anything was wrong.
He thought that this might be the myth. Just a change in mentality could lead to an extreme change in the winning rate.
But how could this be the case?
The God of Wilderness is not an ordinary myth. Even if Di Changan finds many teammates and cooperates with Yu Cang to catch the God of Wilderness off guard and break one of his arms right from the start... it will still be difficult to win.
From the beginning to the end, Di Chang'an's determination to die never changed.
But... from the beginning, when Guixiang and I both died in battle, it has become like this now...
Going back home first allows Emperor Chang'an to fight in two divine wars with his dying body and surpass the myth.
Then fifty years later, Emperor Chang'an went to look for him again.
Yes, that's it.
Thinking of this, Yu Cang couldn't help but clench his fists.
He should have realized it earlier.
When he was in the Golden Jade Palace, he should have thought of this when he saw the tragic end of Emperor Khan...
Also nearing the end of his lifespan, Emperor Khan's "body" dared not even take a single step out of the Golden Throne, and had to wait for the infusion of power gained through sacrificing everything... When a myth's state transitions from the living to the dead, the power generated therein cannot be violated by anyone.
At that time, he just thought that Emperor Khan was a special case.
But, myths are myths. Even if Emperor Khan's foundation is unstable and he is plotted against, this realm will always be similar. At least at the end of his life, there will not be much difference.
At this stage, Emperor Chang'an also needs a golden throne, or an equivalent sacrifice to prolong his life and strength.
Obviously - this sacrifice is homecoming.
Guixiang merged with Emperor Chang'an, allowing him to fight freely in the following time, just like when he was young.
However, for Di Changan, compared to dying in battle, perhaps this is more painful for him.
The next fifty years would probably be even longer and lonelier than his previous thousand-year lifespan...
Looking at Di Chang'an, who was still calm and even had a smile on his face, Yu Cang felt extremely complicated for a moment.
At this moment, his mind suddenly recalled the first time he met Guixiang in Lingxiao Tower, outside Tianmen.
At that time, did he...know about this?
Subconsciously, Yu Cang substituted Aqiu and Duan Feng into the situation.
...Perhaps, Guixiang always knew what Di Changan was going to do and accepted it with pleasure.
"Yu Cang."
Di Changan's voice interrupted his thoughts.
"Don't feel sorry for me—after you take over the Association, I will just be a Yan countryman, no different from everyone else. You should use me even more ruthlessly—never stop at this level of sacrifice."
“…”
Yu Cang was speechless in response.
"Alright, enough lecturing." Di Chang'an clapped his hands. "I heard...something unexpected happened to the group from the Changsheng Account?"
Yu Cang nodded gently: "Yes...it's Tai Hina-senpai."
"Tsk, I really didn't expect that." Di Chang'an sighed, "I thought that none of you would be able to come back, but I never thought that this person would be Tai Chu."
As a myth, and an extremely rare card banner myth, Taichu's ability to survive is needless to say.
It can be said that even if Emperor Chang'an on the other side of the space did not stop the God of Wilderness when the god descended, allowing him to successfully descend into the Golden Jade Palace, Tai Chu could also slip away calmly.
Maybe I can even take Yu Cang with me.
Di Changan knew this old friend very well. If she wanted to leave, no one could stop her.
"And what surprised me even more is..." Di Chang'an looked at Yu Cang, "Without Tai Chu, you actually achieved something far beyond my expectations."
Although I had seen Yu Cang's fighting ability in Tianmen...but, there were prerequisites for Yu Cang to use mythical power. In a place like Tianmen where there was only one enemy target, it was fine. But in the Changsheng Tent, surrounded by enemies, Yu Cang's two moves were ineffective.
Once someone tricks you into using a powerful move, you can only be at the mercy of others.
But he still did those things - the Changsheng Tent has become the back garden of Yan State.
Yu Cang: "...Actually, Senior is not dead yet."
Di Changan's expression remained unchanged: "Tell me about it."
Yu Cang organized his thoughts and then started the story from the beginning with Di Changan.
Di Chang'an assumed a listening posture.
He had already read about what happened in the Changsheng Tent from the intelligence sent by the association before Yu Cang got off the plane, but he still wanted to hear Yu Cang's detailed account.
After all… this intelligence was compiled by Qiu Jindong, so it was naturally presented from his perspective. And Di Changan knew full well that Qiu Jindong might not know the full picture of many things.
While Yu Cang was telling the story, Gu Jieshuang was holding the chess piece with her head down.
…
"I see."
After listening to all of Yu Cang's stories, Di Chang'an breathed a sigh of relief.
"Senior." Gu Jieshuang also took out the sword spirit soul card at this time, "This is the soul card that teacher inhabits..."
"Just keep it for yourself."
Di Chang'an stood up from behind the desk and stretched his shoulders.
"Taichin... I know this old friend very well."
Di Changan said as he paced in the room.
"While the Evil God is theoretically a being beyond mythology... it's not certain they can truly defeat her. Perhaps she's thinking of doing something fun again."
For someone like this who has lived for so long, it's normal for their thinking to be a little abnormal sometimes.
Of course, there is another important reason, that is - before leaving, he also told Taichu a fortune, Xiaoji.
So, Taichung should be fine.
The scene described by Yu Cang is also consistent with this conjecture.
The things that Tai Hina left behind were flawless, and no one could possibly harm them... This also meant that she would definitely be revived at some point in the future.
Although it seems that the key to Taichu's revival lies in Gu Jieshuang's complete understanding of Taichu's sword intent, this is not actually the case.
Even if Gu Jieshuang fails, Taichu's foundation in the present world and the starry sky vision will not disappear. Theoretically, one day, due to various coincidences, the unfinished calculations will begin again.
But in that case, maybe she won't wake up again until a very long time later... maybe in the next era?
Thinking of this, Di Changan laughed.
Eternal life...how willful.
Yu Cang and Gu Jieshuang are so worried about Taichu because they are completely empathizing with the immortal species from the perspective of the short-lived species... It cannot be said that this is wrong, but it is a bit unnecessary.
Shaking his head, Di Changan had no intention of reminding the two of them.
"Jie Shuang," he said, "You should go with me to the place where the real dragon dies."
"Eh?" Gu Jieshuang was stunned. "Me..."
How else could she help?
It was already a stretch to bring her along with her in the Longevity Tent, and she really couldn't think of what use she could be in the Real Dragon's Death Land.
No matter how you think about it, it's a burden.
"Of course, you must be confident." Di Changan smiled.
He didn't tell me the main reason...it was just a guess after all.
Tai Hina must have seen the "results" that her little apprentice showed her, so she decided to become like this.
Otherwise, just based on a promise made to Emperor Chang'an, she is not worthy of going to such lengths to save Yu Cang.
As for Madam Yu... although her actions so far have no obvious direction or pattern, it seems that they are definitely closely related to the ultimate plan of the Desolate Sect.
Thinking of Yu Cang's description of Madam Yu by Tai Chu, Di Chang'an couldn't help but chuckle.
Love-brained?
The thought process of the card banner is indeed beyond the imagination of ordinary people.
"The Desolate Sect's final plan should be in the True Dragon's Death Zone." Di Chang'an said, "Yu Cang, I want to know what you think about this."
Faced with this problem, Yu Cang seemed to have anticipated it.
"If my parents were complicit in the Cult of Desolation, I would not relent."
"good."
“…”
When saying this, Yu Cang was firm and resolute.
Originally, he had already made up his mind to do this. However, the most important reason he could be so decisive now was because he was certain that his parents were not that kind of people.
There are many doubts about the elixir of immortality, but no matter which point, his parents are definitely on the opposite side of the Desolate Sect.
After these words were spoken, the room was silent for a few seconds.
Then, Di Chang'an continued, "This time, the God of Desolation has been severely damaged by us. Saint Falin has inflicted an irreparable wound on him. For a long time, it will be difficult for the God of Desolation to interfere in the affairs of Blue Star again."
Saint Farin is the myth of another country - Haiting!
"The power of the God of Desolation is indeed not beyond the level of myth, but..." Di Chang'an's expression grew slightly serious. "He probably didn't use his full strength in this battle. Perhaps he saw that we didn't have the strength to kill him completely."
Hearing this, Yu Cang's eyes narrowed slightly.
Not giving your all?
Strength, the primary goal of the God of Wilderness is to ensure that he himself cannot come to Blue Star.
So... when you find it difficult to kill yourself, deliberately getting injured is a good strategy.
However, since he didn't use his full strength, the wound caused by Saint Farin... might not be truly unhealable.
The God of Wilderness is still a potential crisis.
Emperor Changan obviously understood this as well.
"In short, in the battle for the True Dragon's death, we can temporarily exclude the God of Desolation - if we are only facing the Desolate Sect, then the current Yan Kingdom is more than enough to deal with it."
After a pause, Di Changan continued.
"The siege and blockade of True Dragon Death began half a month ago. Now, most of the area has been occupied by the Association. It's just a little strange. Logically speaking, at this level, the Ancestral Dragon Emperor should have woken up long ago.
"But it's nothing serious—Yu Cang, I have to thank you. With the Starry Sky Vision as a positioning tool, the military's exploration efficiency for the fragments of the Desolate Heaven Realm has greatly increased. Now... they have basically locked onto the headquarters of the Desolate Sect!"
Hearing this, Yu Cang couldn't help but raise his head.
"Headquarters?"
"That's right." Di Chang'an nodded, "So this time, I will go directly to the Netherworld Heaven Realm and attack Huanglong!"
"Great." Yu Cang couldn't help but say, "This way... Oh, remember, don't let Ren Zheng get close to the real dragon's death zone."
"No, quite the contrary."
Emperor Changan said decisively.
"Ren Zheng, we must enter the True Dragon's Death Zone!"
