A cafe.
Sitting opposite was a woman wearing a long black dress and tulle.
Louis asked the waiter for two cups of espresso.
The resentful woman's white thighs were folded together, her slender arms supported the table, and her voice was leisurely: "What? Are there any interim results?"
"There are no results, but there is one thing I need you to investigate for me." Louis looked around and then whispered.
"Huh? What's the matter?" The resentful woman showed a hint of doubt, and a hint of curiosity flashed in her eyes.
"Help me investigate what happened in the Yin family's ancestral land eleven years ago." Louis said after thinking for a moment.
"The ancestral land of the Yin family? Do you suspect that the fragments of the God-killing Spear or the Black Lotus are in the ancestral land of the Yin family?" The resentful woman raised her eyebrows slightly, with ripples of inquiry in her eyes. "Where did you get the information?"
"Hmm? I guessed." Louis stretched his palms toward the sky and spoke with a sigh.
"You...guessed?"
"hold head high!"
Hearing the resentful woman's question, Louis raised his chin and his eyes were full of certainty.
Louis explained: "Think about it, the two times the black lotus appeared were more than ten years ago, and the time was close. Could it be a coincidence?"
“I boldly believe that the legacy should have been sown more than ten years ago.”
The resentful woman lowered her head in thought for a while, then nodded gently: "You mean, although the time of the black lotus's appearance will vary, it won't be too much?"
"And it just so happened that something happened in the Yin family's ancestral land ten years ago in Humen, and the location you sensed happened to be near the Yin family."
"It just makes sense." The resentful woman's throat moved slightly, a touch of emotion appeared on her face, and her mind suddenly became clear at this moment.
“That’s right!”
......
On top of the Huangsha Mountain in Humen.
A Taoist gate stands on the top of the mountain.
A group of people in Taoist robes said respectfully to the person standing on the steps in front of them: "Master——"
In Huangsha Mountain, the head of the Sanqing Taoist sect, Tan Wei, had his back to the crowd. He bowed towards the picture of the Three Pure Ones hanging in the Taoist temple in front of him and said softly, "Twenty-fourth generation Qingshan Sect disciple, Tan Wei pays respects to the Three Pure Ones."
"A hundred years ago, the Tang Dynasty entered a period of chaos, and I was forced to leave the nearby Qingshan Sect. I eventually settled in Huangsha Mountain and rebuilt the Qingshan Sect."
"I wanted to spread the word about the Dao Sect, but I never expected that the sect would encounter an unexpected change a few months ago! The two nephews of the Qingshan Sect were both killed!"
"As their uncle, I didn't get back in time, which led to such a tragedy!"
"If I had known this, I should have returned to Qingshan Sect long ago instead of establishing a new sect outside!"
"Tan Wei knows that his sins are grave, and karma will surely bring retribution!"
"I will resign from my position as the head of the Qingshan Sect of Huangsha Mountain and I am determined to avenge my nephew!"
"With the Court of All Living Things!!! We are irreconcilable!"
As he spoke, Tan Wei seemed to cut off a corner of his Taoist robe to show his determination!
But he was stopped by his disciples: "Master, why do you have to resign? The hatred of Qingshan Sect is also the hatred of our Humen Huangsha Mountain!"
"That's right! Master, you don't have to resign. We should avenge our enemies together! We will never reconcile with all living beings!!!" a disciple with thick eyebrows and big eyes shouted.
In an instant, following the voices of the two disciples, many other disciples gradually spoke up: "We wish to be with the Master!"
"I will never reconcile with all living beings! The fight will not end until one dies!!!"
Tan Wei's eyes suddenly filled with tears. He didn't think this was right. He felt that he had implicated many disciples!
They should not have fallen into the vortex of hatred. It was his desire for revenge that made all the disciples sink into this revenge...
How could he accept it?
"No need to say more! I will take my revenge!"
"I should bear the debt of the Court of All Living Things alone, and not implicate you." Tan Wei's voice was hoarse, and a long sword with a gleaming green luster appeared in his hand. "Right and wrong, on the other side of the abyss, you don't need to worry about it."
"My Taoism is all about freedom and ease. If I were to be entangled in revenge, my Taoism would come to an end."
"When will the cycle of revenge end..."
"Let me end this hatred alone. There will always be someone with blood on his hands. Then, I will be the executioner."
At this moment, a feeling of sadness permeated the Qingshan Taoist Temple on the Huangsha Mountain.
Gloomy clouds gathered in the sky and a drizzle gradually began to fall.
Tan Wei felt the rain and slowly closed his eyes: "I will bear all the grudges and right and wrongs by myself. You don't need to worry about me."
As soon as he finished speaking, Tan Wei, who was originally standing in front of everyone, suddenly disappeared without a trace.
The drizzle soaked everyone's Taoist robes, and everyone's eyes flashed with an indescribable complexity.
“Farewell, Master—” The two disciples who had been taught by the master kowtowed in the direction where Tan Wei disappeared.
All of a sudden, all the disciples knelt on the rain-soaked ground.
At this moment, it is no longer possible to tell whether the water on their faces is rain or tears.
But one thing is certain.
The Taoist temple was filled with sadness that even rain could not completely wash away.
I don’t know how long this sadness will last.
Maybe it will take a long time for it to dissipate, or maybe tomorrow, when the sky is clear, the sadness will dissipate as well.
.......
The Archer family, far away in Western Europe, was once a glorious family, but now it was devastated.
The family is almost in ruins with broken walls.
The old man sitting on the sofa surrounded by the crowd looked shriveled, except for his eyes which were bright and lively.
He spoke in hoarse but fluent English: "Damn it, that Oriental guy actually trampled on our Archer family and humiliated them like this!!!"
"He will definitely pay the price."
"We want revenge!"
"The bowing now is only temporary."
"Just wait, Oriental, I will repay you for everything you did to my Archer family in the Tang Dynasty!!!"
"What do you mean?" the man at the side asked in a trembling voice.
The old man nodded, slowly closed his eyes, and held a cane in his hand, leaning on the ground. He said in a low voice: "Buy me a ticket to Datang Humen."
"I want to let that Oriental man know that our Archer family will never be easily bullied!!"
"I will make the Yin family pay the corresponding price!"
"Destroy their homes, then destroy their houses."
"Force them to bow their heads!"
"Since the Yin family is planning to march into Western Europe, there is no reason for our Archer family to stop there!"
Hearing the old man's words.
Suddenly, different expressions appeared on the faces of everyone around.
There is astonishment, bewilderment, confusion, doubt, and also enthusiasm, confidence, and yearning!
As the head of Archer's family, the man pondered for a while and said, "Father, we support you. This humiliation will only allow us to make a comeback and make the proud Orientals pay the price they deserve!"
"Yes, failure is only temporary, success is coming soon."
"Arrogance will definitely pay a price!"
