Mingkong's expression froze. He had not considered this issue.
Just because Mu Tianxue had saved him, he just wanted to try and see if he could seize this secret.
If Mu Tianxue seized the secret of heaven, became the girl of destiny, and was favored by heaven, then Mu Lingjiu would be nothing. This shows that the way of heaven can be changed.
However, he never thought about whether Mu Tianxue was worthy of this position.
Now that he thought about it, Mu Tianxue wasn't such a good person except for saving him.
He knew what kind of person Mu Tianxue was, but in his heart, Mu Tianxue was a little different from other people, just because Mu Tianxue had saved him.
Then according to Mu Lingjiu, Mu Tianxue is not worthy of the position of empress.
"Master Mingkong thinks that he can change destiny at will and is more powerful than the way of heaven?" Mu Lingjiu asked again.
Ming Kong said coldly, "I don't have such thoughts. I just can't accept why Heaven chose you. Chosen by Heaven, you have the luck that ordinary people don't have."
Mu Lingjiu said coldly, "Do you think Heaven chose me for no reason? Have you ever thought that perhaps each of us is a test paper from birth, and every action we take adds or subtracts points from that test paper. This is similar to the Buddhist concept of doing good deeds and cultivating good results. When my test paper stands out the most among everyone else, then I am the one chosen by Heaven."
Mingkong was slightly stunned. The things he couldn't understand before suddenly became clear at this moment.
Yes, perhaps the way of heaven is also a kind of judgment mechanism, and he chose Mu Lingjiu simply because she was the most suitable for that position.
"But, when you were twelve, I already calculated that you were the one destined by Heaven. What did you do at twelve that would make Heaven consider you the most qualified person?"
"Perhaps, it's because I became the youngest general on the Lingzhou battlefield at the age of twelve." Mu Lingjiu said calmly, "The Lingzhou battlefield was blocked by water, and Chao Fengzong was besieged in Lingzhou. I led a team of troops across Yanshan to raid Lingzhou, destroying the enemy's spiritual stone base and defeating the enemy with a small force."
"The Battle of Fengshui in Lingzhou." Mingkong raised his eyes slightly, his expression moved.
Although he was a Buddhist, he had also heard of this war. The secular world regarded this battlefield as a divine work.
The general who led the troops to fight that year was the deceased man from the Bai family, Bai Wenjin's biological brother, Bai Jinyu.
Bai Jinyu was besieged in Lingzhou, and the person who brought a team of people to rescue him was Mu Lingjiu.
Therefore, Mu Lingjiu must have performed extremely well in that war and received the attention of Heaven.
According to the timeline, he was traveling in Cangzhou when he was accidentally injured by a ferocious spirit beast and was rescued by Chen Youxin's family.
At that time, he had just learned how to calculate, and he figured out that he would not be the person standing in the highest position in the future, and he also figured out that Mu Lingjiu would be that person.
Therefore, he decided to let Mu Tianxue give it a try. Perhaps, he could change the girl of destiny chosen by Heaven.
Later, there was indeed a period of time when all the results he calculated were Mu Tianxue.
That period of time happened to be the time when Mu Lingjiu faked his death.
However, when Mu Lingjiu appeared in front of the public again, the Heavenly Dao chose Mu Lingjiu again.
"Just a little bit." He sighed.
"Perhaps if you had chosen someone else, the result would not be the same as today." Mu Lingjiu said jokingly, "If you had chosen Sheng Mingyue or Lu Zhibai, they would have killed you long ago. But they wouldn't have used such despicable means to kill you."
Mingkong frowned slightly, quite disagreeing with the word "despicable", but he didn't know how to refute it.
Mu Lingjiu glanced at the place not far away.
"Master Mingkong, do you still choose to stand in front of me?"
Mingkong hesitated and was shaken, not knowing whether his choice of Mu Tianxue was right.
Perhaps, his choice of Mu Tianxue was not necessarily correct.
The moment he hesitated, Mu Lingjiu had already flown out.
Mingkong wanted to chase after him, but at this moment a voice in his heart kept echoing in his mind.
"Do you think your choice is the right one?"
"After the way of heaven is influenced, is it still right?"
Mingkong had many questions in his mind at this time. He doubted whether what he had done over the years was right or not.
Perhaps, what he did was never right.
Thinking of this, Mingkong couldn't help but feel a splitting headache, and his heart was suddenly disturbed by a chaotic breath.
Puff——
He spat out a mouthful of blood and felt a knot in his heart.
Mu Lingjiu came in front of Mu Lingyun.
Mu Lingyun brought Mu Tianxue and turned to look at Mu Lingjiu. He dodged her gaze for a moment and smiled, "Lingjiu, you are my biological sister. There is no need for us to go to that extent."
Mu Lingjiu sneered, "Do you think I'm your sister? You don't have to say such insincere words just to save your life."
Mu Lingyun was shocked. He had never heard Mu Lingjiu say such harsh words. This was the first time. He felt as if his heart was hit hard by something.
The person he thought would never embarrass him was now looking at him like a stranger.
Mu Lingyun was stunned for a moment, then hurriedly said, "Lingjiu, I know you have some misunderstandings about me. I was also deceived by Mu Tianxue, thinking that you had done something treasonous. I am your brother, how could I be bad to you?"
Mu Lingjiu didn't say much to him and quickly attacked Mu Lingyun.
Now that Mu Lingyun’s cultivation has reached the level of a Spirit Saint, she must find the opponent’s weakness before taking action.
Mu Lingyun naturally didn't expect Mu Lingjiu to attack so decisively, and by the time he reacted, he had already been hit.
Mu Lingyun spat out a mouthful of blood. He hurriedly said, "Lingjiu, listen to me. There is indeed a misunderstanding between us. I have captured Mu Tianxue and removed her from the position of Empress. You will be the new Empress from now on. We can call a truce, and I can declare you the new Empress."
Mu Lingjiu sneered, "If you are really willing to give up your position, then surrender immediately and write a letter of surrender."
Mu Lingyun twitched the corner of his mouth, "You don't believe me?"
"What do you have that I can trust?"
Mu Lingyun was silent. There was indeed nothing about him that was worthy of Mu Lingjiu's trust. Mu Lingjiu had become much smarter now.
In the past, one or two sentences could be enough to fool people.
He immediately pushed Mu Tianxue out.
"If I surrender, I will have to go back and write a letter of surrender to appease the soldiers in Zhongzhou. I will leave Tianxue here as a hostage. I will come back after I have dealt with it."
After saying that, Mu Lingyun didn't wait for Mu Lingjiu to react and directly pushed Mu Tianxue out.
Mu Tianxue reacted and wanted to run, but Mu Lingyun slapped her back and turned around to escape using the teleportation array.
Mu Lingjiu immediately took action to stop him, and at the same time Cui Yuanfeng also came with his men.
Chen Lin captured Mu Lingyun with a formation.
Mu Lingyun knew that something was wrong, so he had no choice but to take a Blood-Breaking Pill, forcibly improving his cultivation to break through Chen Lin's formation and prepare to break out.
