Chapter 996 I am not afraid of death
That night.
There were gusts of cool wind and the whole town was dead silent. There was not even the sound of night watchmen. It was like a silent dead city.
Ever since many uninvited guests with strange behaviors and obviously difficult to deal with have come to the city in recent days, the people in the city rarely dare to go out after nightfall.
"Boom boom boom"
In the north of the city, inside an inn.
The candlestick in the corner emitted a faint light. There was a gentle knock on the door. A man in black pushed the door open and walked in. He quickly walked behind the silent man standing by the window and knelt on one knee.
"Sir, I'm sorry that I'm incompetent and have not yet found Wei Changtian's whereabouts."
“.”
"knew."
Without turning around, Chu Xianping still looked at the bright moon in the sky and replied calmly.
"Young Master."
Behind him, the man in black hesitated for a moment, then continued in a low voice, "Although we haven't found out yet, in my humble opinion, Wei Changtian must have heard the news and came to Fangcun Mountain."
"He may even be in the city right now."
"Sir, there are still two days until February 2nd. Do you want to send someone to investigate carefully?"
"check?"
Chu Xianping replied calmly: "If he wants to hide, can you find him?"
"Subordinates."
The man in black paused, his expression instantly became awkward, and he dared not say anything else.
"Okay, since we haven't found anything, let's leave it at that."
Finally turning around, Chu Xianping's eyes seemed somewhat eerie and strange in the candlelight.
"Even if he really comes, he will be alone, and at most there will be a new empress with him. He will not pose a threat to me."
"Our only opponent now is Qin Zhengqiu."
"Remember to send more people to keep an eye on their movements and report any abnormalities at any time."
"I understand!"
"Well, you can go out now."
"yes!"
“.”
The man in black stood up, lowered his head and slowly walked out of the room. Soon Chu Xianping was the only one left in the room.
He slowly walked to the table and sat down, his expression unclear in the flickering firelight.
"Sir, I actually hope you don't come."
"But if you're already here."
"I think you must be waiting to see me and Qin Zhengqiu fight to the death."
"In that case, I'll do as you wish."
"Sir, this may be the last thing I can do for you."
“.”
On the other side, south of the city.
"Master Qin, since Wei Changtian hasn't shown up for a month, he must have come to Fangcun Mountain!"
"Li Zimu had appeared in Lingmen Temple before. It must be the bald donkey in Lingmen Temple who leaked this!"
"That's right! And the new empress has also disappeared for half a month! In my opinion, she might have come with Wei Changtian!"
"Master Qin, there are already people like Chu Xianping waiting for us. If Wei Changtian is added to the mix, the variables will be too great!"
"Why don't we strike first? Since we can't find Wei Changtian for the time being, let's kill Chu Xianping first! That way, Wei Changtian won't be able to cause any big trouble!"
"Master Qin, don't forget what you promised me!"
"Yes! This opportunity is of great importance. Now that we are here, we must not let it fall into the hands of others!"
"Master Qin! Make a decision soon!"
“.”
The spacious room was brightly lit, and more than a dozen old men of different heights, weights and bodies were arguing together. Only Qin Zhengqiu, who was sitting in the first seat, had his eyes closed and said nothing.
At first glance, the scene seemed quite messy, as if the dozen or so people who were talking were all grumpy old men.
But in fact, everyone sitting here at this moment is the leader or patriarch of a major sect, and the lowest realm is the middle stage of the second rank.
To be honest, even if we ignore the forces behind them, these dozen people alone are enough to wipe out most of the dynasties in the world.
It is precisely because of this that this group of people are not very respectful to Qin Zhengqiu, the "number one person in the world" at this moment.
After all, even if it was Qin Zhengqiu, it would be impossible for him to deal with so many second-grade masters by himself.
What's more, the former now needs their help. "Everyone."
He slowly opened his eyes, and his cloudy gaze finally made the shouting in the room gradually stop.
Everyone stared at Qin Zhengqiu, their heartbeats somehow speeding up.
Although they didn't believe the former would take action, everyone still felt a little weak in momentum.
Qin Zhengqiu then slowly scanned the area before speaking: "What you all said makes sense, but I also have my own plans."
"Although Chu Xianping has won over some people from Kuilong, he is still not a cause for concern to me."
"It is still unknown whether the secret of the immortality is true or not. If we turn against them now, we may end up with nothing."
"So I think it won't be too late to discuss everything until February 2nd."
“If the divine will comes true at that time, and Chu Xianping really wants to compete with me for the opportunity, then I will kill him.”
"And Wei Changtian"
Having said this, Qin Zhengqiu paused, and everyone's expressions became meaningful.
Everyone in the world knows the relationship between the former and Wei Changtian.
Although the two had already fallen out, they almost came to blows in the capital of Daqian.
However, everyone present couldn't help but worry that Qin Zhengqiu would be reluctant to kill his grandson, which might lead to some accident.
After all, blood ties are not something that can be achieved. "Everyone, if Wei Changtian appears in Fangcun Mountain one day."
With his eyes closed, Qin Zhengqiu's tone was calm and indifferent.
His expression didn't change at all, and he gave the answer calmly, as if he was talking about something very ordinary.
"I will kill him."
"Wei Changtian"
There was no light in the guest room, and the moonlight poured in, faintly falling on Wei Changtian's profile.
Xu Suisui was lying on the only bed, while Wei Changtian was sitting at the table.
Although no one in the city was searching for them right now, Wei Changtian certainly didn't dare to take it lightly, so he decided not to sleep for the next two days so as to avoid being unable to react in time if any emergency occurred.
As a second-rank warrior, not sleeping for a few days is not a problem at all, so he is still in good mental state at the moment.
On the contrary, Xu Suisui tossed and turned and couldn't fall asleep.
"What's wrong?"
Turning his head to glance at Xu Suisui who was staring at him, Wei Changtian frowned and said, "Go to sleep quickly."
"I can't sleep."
Xu Suisui put his hands together to support his face, his eyes seemed to be full of longing: "Wei Changtian, do you think we can go back this time?"
"How should I know?"
Wei Changtian curled his lips: "It's hard to say whether I can survive."
"So if we die, can we go back?"
Xu Suisui seemed to have suddenly thought of something and said with a smile: "After all, we traveled here because we died in our previous life."
"Maybe."
Wei Changtian was obviously too lazy to think about such a meaningless question, and said casually: "You will know after you die."
“Is that so.”
For some reason, Xu Suisui's eyes suddenly flashed with a hint of loss.
"Wei Changtian, are you afraid of death?"
"It's OK."
Wei Changtian continued perfunctorily: "Anyway, I've already died once."
"Well, I'm not afraid either."
Xu Suisui shrank his head: "But I'm afraid of pain."
"pain?"
Wei Changtian glanced at her and recalled what happened two years ago when Xu Suisui just found him.
“Is chemotherapy painful?”
".It's fine."
Xu Suisui was obviously stunned for a moment, but soon replied with a smile: "It doesn't hurt much."
"oh."
Wei Changtian nodded: "Then have you ever thought about what to do if your illness still doesn't get better even if you go back?"
“.”
Xu Suisui's body suddenly stiffened, and then relaxed a little bit.
She gently grasped the corner of the quilt and whispered in a voice that only she could hear: "That doesn't matter."
"I'm not afraid of death."
