Zuan: "..."
This guy is acting like he's in a melodramatic soap opera. He talks a lot normally, but he stops talking when it really matters.
Lu Sheng clearly knew that his words were hardly convincing, so he slowly said, "The Empress should know that I obtained the 'Book of Records' back then. With this book, I can predict good or bad fortune within a certain period of time. As it turned out, that time I predicted that no matter what, I would definitely die."
"I really can't understand why, with my cultivation level back then and having left prematurely, I was bound to die. But the Record Book can't be wrong, so I split off a wisp of my soul in advance to prepare for any eventuality and see what was going on."
"Then what exactly happened? Did Ying Zheng kill you himself?" Mi Li asked, believing that this was the most likely explanation.
Lu Sheng shook his head: "Although I knew the truth at the time, I don't remember it now."
Zuan: "???"
Mi Li also sneered: "Are you trying to make fun of me?"
Lu Sheng sighed softly: "Although I don't know why I don't remember, I can deduce that since I already know the truth but don't remember, it's obviously due to a protective mechanism. Back then, my original body decisively made me forget these things, otherwise, this remnant soul of mine probably wouldn't have survived. But I still remember that extreme shock and fear. For me to have that feeling back then, it must have been something earth-shattering."
Mi Li frowned: "Since you don't even dare to remember, what's the point of you just clinging to life like this?"
Lu Sheng said, "The mission of my remnant soul is to wait for a destined person to reveal the truth about what happened back then, and at the same time, to avenge my original body. And just now, I sensed the aura of that destined person."
After saying that, he turned around and stared straight at Zu An.
Zu An sneered, "Do you think I'm a three-year-old child? What makes you think I'm the one with the destiny?"
Lu Sheng said, "Have you forgotten the 'Book of Records' I just mentioned? I have a certain ability to foresee the future, and it told me that you are my destined one."
Zuan shook his head: "You say it's fate, so why should I help you? It's obvious that what you're doing is extremely dangerous, why should I get involved?"
Lu Sheng revealed a mysterious and eerie smile: "This is no longer up to you; you are already caught in the middle of it."
