Chapter 525 Meeting
Tao Zi remained silent for a long time, with countless things running through her mind.
She knew clearly that what the master said was right. Xing Zhan and the others should not live in hiding like this. They should stand in the sun and tell their real names without any worries.
The pool of blood outside flashed through her mind again. She closed her eyes, bowed deeply, and said, "Thank you, sir."
Strength is respected, and the final choice should be left to them. She should not unilaterally decide their future.
A flash of relief flashed across the gentleman's eyes. Xiao Zi's previous growing environment was too bad, which caused her to occasionally go to extremes and get into troubles that she shouldn't have gotten into. Fortunately, there was still time to make up for it.
Only one thing...
He frowned slightly and said, "Xiao Zi, one last thing."
"Sir, please speak."
"Why was your reincarnation thread cut off?"
Tao Zi froze there, not knowing how to answer.
"Before, the aura of the broken sword obscured it, so I couldn't detect it, but now, I can see it clearly."
She pursed her lips and said, "Please keep this a secret for me, sir, and don't tell my brother."
The gentleman said, "Well, it seems you already know what's going on, so I won't say much."
"Thank you, sir."
Finally, the master called Cheng Wuchou in again, and Tao Zi went out for a walk, and inadvertently arrived at the blood pool again.
At this time, there was a person standing by the blood pool. She recognized that he was one of the people who had just participated in the discussion.
The man didn't turn around, but seemed to know she was coming. He said, "If the princess and my colleagues were still here, I would rather be torn into pieces than have to face them."
Tao Zi didn't know what to say and could only remain silent.
"Miss Tao, when you entered the Imperial Daughter's Ruins, did you see those souls?"
Tao Zi told the truth.
He turned around and listened carefully to what was said.
After that, there was another long silence.
It wasn't until he heard footsteps that he said, "Come to think of it, I'm actually looking forward to the Tiandao Sect taking action."
Tao Zi looked at him in surprise.
He said, "Being pointed at by thousands of people cannot erase the sins we have committed, but it can alleviate some of the torment in our hearts."
In response, she could only say feebly, "Your goal is also for mortals."
"No matter how noble our purpose, it cannot mask the cruelty and despicable nature of our means. No matter what, we can never change the fact that we once targeted the weak, innocent and vulnerable. Yet, three thousand years ago, those were the people we risked our lives to protect."
Tao Zi suddenly didn't know what to say.
Say, sacrificing the interests of a few is worth it?
Or is it something that cannot be helped?
But no matter which statement she made, she couldn't say it. After all, the people who were qualified to say these words had already turned into bones.
The man laughed again and said, "Okay, why am I saying these hypocritical words? It's as if I would change my choice if I had the chance to do it again. Forget it, Miss Tao, I'll go first."
As soon as his figure disappeared, Cheng Wuchou walked over with a complicated expression. Obviously, he also heard what was said.
Tao Zi called out softly, "Brother."
Cheng Wuchou patted her shoulder, looked at the path the man left on, and said, "If they lost their conscience along with their reincarnation, perhaps they would feel much better."
Tao Zi was silent.
People are complicated. Intellectually, these people killed innocent people, but emotionally, she could not blame them, and she had no right to blame them.
After all, she wasn't that clean.
Moreover, to be honest, if the mecha were to be reborn and truly benefit countless mortals, then these so-called sins would probably only become righteousness in the eyes of future generations, regardless of whether the sacrifices were voluntary or not.
Cheng Wuchou patted her shoulder again: "Azi, it is difficult for us to judge right and wrong, we can only act according to our heart."
"That's right, brother."
After returning to his residence, Tao Zi summoned the little ghost and looked at the neatly collected corpse. He said, "Your body has been recovered. What are you going to do with it?"
The little ghost glanced at his own corpse listlessly and said, "It's dirty. I don't want it anymore. Let's burn it. Find the materials to make a clean body for me. Is that okay?"
"Okay, I'll find someone to help you practice." Tao Zi pondered for a moment and made a decision, "Let's find Li Xiu and his master. You can draw the appearance yourself."
"Okay, I'm going to take a rest. You should burn this body as soon as possible. I'm tired of looking at it."
As soon as the little ghost rested, she took out the broken sword and called out softly, but there was no response.
She took out the notebook she had bought during her escape and tentatively called out, "Your notebook."
The broken sword shook for a moment, and then there was no movement again.
It seems that that attack did cause great damage to the inner demon, and I don’t know how long it will take to recover.
It just so happens that this period is a turbulent time.
Tao Zi sighed lightly, put the storybook away, touched the even more tattered sword, and decided to buy some more storybooks later.
As expected by the gentleman, on the next day, the Tiandao Sect suddenly convened a conference of the immortal cultivation world and required the Sword Sect and the three sects to participate.
There are three out of four doors, and it goes without saying which one is missing.
After receiving the news, Cheng Luo, who finally had a break, collapsed in his chair and rolled his eyes. The harm done by the Minglan Sect was more than ten times that of the Xujia Sect, yet they didn't receive this kind of treatment.
He said sarcastically, "Our sect is so impressive that we can even get the extremely noble Tiandao Sect to intervene~"
Cheng Wuchou said calmly, "No matter what the Minglan Sect did, they didn't mess with the mecha. Fortunately, Mr.'s identity was not revealed, otherwise the Tiandao Sect would not even have time to hold a meeting."
Hearing this, Cheng Luo sighed, "If that person knew Mr.'s identity, he wouldn't have been able to escape and would have died long ago."
At this moment, a voice came from outside the door: "Big Brother, the Third Elder said that many unknown people appeared outside the sect. Please go and deal with them."
Cheng Luo's face darkened, and he gritted his teeth and said, "Is this the end? How long will I rest for?"
Cheng Wuchou comforted him: "Brother Luo, it's okay. Now that Xujiamen is gone, it's over."
He looked up to the sky and sighed: "It would be better for the Tiandao Sect to kill me directly than to be beaten like a slave in the Xujia Sect."
Cheng Wuchou didn't know whether to laugh or cry, and asked, "Who hit you?"
Cheng Luo looked at the brother and sister dimly and said, "What do you think?"
Tao Zi kicked it and said, "Stop being so implicit."
After Cheng Luo left, Tao Zi asked, "The Tiandao Sect made such a big move just for the mecha?"
Cheng Wuchou chuckled twice and said, "Azi, don't underestimate mechas. Three thousand years ago, when spiritual energy was abundant, the royal family could still rely on the power of mechas to challenge the immortal sects. Let alone now when spiritual energy is weaker. It's a pity that the mechas are not yet complete."
She thought of the drawings in the storage container and leaned back in her chair without saying a word.
This is an opportunity, but also a murderous intention. It depends on whether Xing Zhan and the others will accept it and whether they can accept it.
