Chapter 49 Just as You Expected of Me
It turns out that killing someone, something that was so far away from me, doesn't even require an impulse.
I thought about whether I would not be able to do it if it really came to this, and whether I would develop a disregard for life because of this behavior.
But when I clenched the formation knife in my hand, I realized that at this time, I would not think about anything.
——It was like taking a sedative, and the emotions in my heart were calm.
"Jing Yuan." A clear and familiar voice flowed into my mind, making me subconsciously look back.
Jing Yuan walked down the long steps step by step, but finally stopped where he was, as if keeping a sufficient distance from me to calm me down.
There didn't seem to be anything obviously abnormal about him, except that his hair, which was usually fluffy and smooth, was now a little messy, and it was obvious that he had rushed here.
Then he said, "Stop it, Jingyuan."
"...I thought you could understand." I felt my voice was a little dry, like an innocent person who was slandered and unable to defend himself.
But these things are just my subjective will, and I am not innocent, so I suppressed my dryness and explained, "Suppose there is a tree with countless holes eaten by insects here, how do you want to save it?"
As soon as Jing Yuan asked this question, he understood what Jing Yuan wanted to say, but he still answered in cooperation: "Killing insects."
Jing Yuan nodded in agreement, but then said with regret the next moment, "But conventional methods can't kill them all, so we can only use some unconventional methods."
Just as I never thought of violating the laws of Xianzhou, I also never thought of obeying them.
When the morality behind the law was also unable to restrain me, I suddenly realized that solving some problems was so simple.
But Jing Yuan still disagreed and asked me: "So you want to completely eliminate them in this way?"
I know that Luofu is facing a very difficult situation now, and any imbalance in the situation will bring endless troubles.
I also know that what the alliance sees is that incidents are frequent in Luofu and the situation is critical. Only stable development can dispel certain doubts.
I also know that as General Luofu, everything he has to do must have a reason. Only by seizing the flaws when defusing the enemy's attack can he launch a counterattack.
But......
Before I could even think clearly, Jing Yuan spoke first, "But you don't want to do that."
"Hundreds of years, time and again, you get tired of this so-called safe way."
...I kept my opinion and did not refute it. After all, in terms of the result, Jing Yuan did nothing wrong.
But I feel that my approach has not deviated from the "safe" state, otherwise I would not have made a call in the group chat after Baichuan entered the water.
Although given the current situation, Jing Yuan cannot be exempted from responsibility no matter what happens in Luofu, I am still in Luofu after all.
And what I have to do is to rationalize all this, at least it is enough for the outside world, as for the deeper responsibility...
If Jing Yuan does not show up, then even in the face of the worst situation - whether it is the divination of the Taibu Division or the dream divination of the Ten Kings Division, I am confident that I can completely exclude Jing Yuan from the game.
But Jingyuan came. Not only did he come, he also stepped forward.
"...You shouldn't have come." I whispered, clutching my sleeves anxiously, and further reminded him, "Since you understand what I want to do, you shouldn't have gotten involved in this mess at this time."
"On the contrary, I came here precisely because I understand."
The gentle and sad gaze cast over made Jingyuan understand the meaning of these words instantly.
It was precisely because Jing Yuan knew what he wanted to do that he didn't want him to get involved in a murder or to perish.
"......So you are here to stop me." He muttered to himself, but suddenly laughed, "That's right, after all, you are Jing Yuan."
If he is Jing Yuan, how could he remain indifferent after knowing that I was going to do these illegal things?
"It has nothing to do with who I am." Jing Yuan replied softly, "If "Yan Qing" has to bear the sin for you, what will you do? ”
"General, this is not a sin, it's just a different path." "Yan Qing" immediately reminded, "Not only me, but even "Ren" and "Dan Heng" will agree with this! ”
He pointed at Yu Zhao in a signal manner, silently giving another reminder.
Jing Yuan continued to remain silent. Jing Yuan knew that he already had the answer in his heart.
Therefore, Jing Yuan did not wait for his answer and said with certainty: "You will stop him as well."
"So, this is not because I don't agree with you, but because I don't want to lose you because of this."
"Jingyuan, you should stand in the sun, just as you expect me to do. ”
If I were really the "Jingyuan" of a certain world, I might agree with what he said. But I am not like that. I know clearly where my abilities lie.
I don't have the ability to play chess, nor do I have the planning pattern. All I have are my usable memories and the extremely convenient resurrection.
So, in order to take the only correct answer, I have no other choice.
"Jingyuan, I'm not on the wrong track." I responded like this, but I felt that even I didn't believe this explanation.
I threaten, I commit violence, but I am a good person?
Thinking of this, I couldn't help laughing after all. "Sorry, I didn't mean to make you feel psychologically burdened, but I still have to do this, so you can completely regard this as my personal behavior - not for anyone, and not for Luo Fu."
Jing Yuan probably didn't expect me to be so stubborn. He sighed and asked, "Are you going to tell me that you designed to arrest all the remnants of the Medicine King Secret Sect and followed the clues all the way into the Scaled Abyss Realm for personal grudges?"
"Why not?" I recalled my own settings and said with certainty, "If it weren't for the secret methods of the Medicine King and the experiments of Master Long, I wouldn't have become an immortal evil creature. It's a personal grudge, in the true sense of the word."
"Nonsense!" Master Long, who was still bleeding after being stabbed, spoke with full energy, "Who can be sure that you are from the future? Even if you are, what evidence do you have to prove that we have conducted experiments on you?"
"...Will the reincarnation of a vidyadhara affect the brain?" I looked at him hesitantly, and then rejected this speculation, "But Danheng doesn't seem to be affected at all."
Feng Huan's face flushed with anger, but he was afraid that I really had some evidence, so he simply changed his words and said, "If you don't have any evidence, apologize to me formally now, and maybe I can consider the wording of the appeal!"
"But I'm here to take revenge, why do I need evidence?" I looked at him with pity and kindly explained to him, "I'm here to kill you, I don't need any evidence."
"If I must say..."
I waved at the whirlpool that had reappeared in the ancient sea, and watched Dan Heng walk out of it. He nodded to me and said, "Everything has been settled."
"So the Chiming traitor he was talking about is you..." Feng Huan looked at "Dan Heng" with a pale face.
Then, the sound of a blade came from the connected jade omen, "The people from the Ten Kings Division are coming soon."
"I advocate and I provide evidence." I looked at Feng Huan in a good mood, and without waiting for him to speak again, I swung my formation knife directly - leaving no room for him. "And before that, you will not have another chance to speak."
Jing Yuan didn't even make any attempt to stop me, he just looked at everything in Linyuan Realm with a gloomy expression.
He seemed to have taken everything into his eyes, and also seemed to have scattered everything into the clouds.
...I didn't dare to make eye contact with him, so I could only say something to Dan Heng who was closest to me: "It took a lot longer than I thought."
"It's indeed a bit troublesome to have different letters, not to mention the handwriting problem." "Dan Heng" explained, and patted my shoulder and comforted me: "Don't feel burdened. Such a person is not as useful as the rich evil creatures. At least they can still drop some materials, but this guy doesn't give anything."
"You're right." I agreed with him, and then asked curiously, "You went down there, didn't you get anything out of him?"
Dan Heng was silent for a moment, and then he said solemnly, as if he had just realized that he could have such a train of thought: "I'll remember it next time."
"Do you think he is not completely dead?" "Yan Qing" poked the corpse on the ground with the tip of the sword, then pushed down hard, making a new cut on Feng Huan's body. "I always feel uneasy if I don't finish it off. This way I feel more at ease."
After saying that, he looked at the two bewildered guards and said coldly, "General, are we going to get rid of these two people?"
"What do you think?" I looked at Baichuan suggestively, "I can give you a chance to choose."
This is the last chance. If he chose to execute these two people, it would mean that he rejected "Jing Yuan".
Baichuan pursed his lips tightly, and then responded in a pleading tone, "General, they are just following Feng Huan's orders and have done nothing wrong. Please give them a chance to live."
"Really?" Jing Yuan deliberately left the two guards in suspense for a few seconds, letting their hearts beat fast. Then he smiled and said, "This is an internal affair of the Chiming Sect. I naturally have no right to interfere."
The two guards breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Thank you, General."
"No need to thank me, this is her decision." "Jing Yuan" looked at Baichuan with indifference in his eyes.
This is just the end of a stage for Jingyuan, but for Baichuan, it is just the beginning of intervening in the internal affairs of Chiming.
Master Long Fenghuan, who has held power in the Chiming for a thousand years, will obviously cultivate many loyal followers. As for how to deal with those people and how to use them, that is all Baichuan's business.
As for whether Baichuan will be out of control... at least until she gains a certain say in Master Yu Long's group, she will not leave the only pillar at this time.
And now...the people from the Ten Kings Division have arrived.
