Why deliberately nurture my murderous aura and accumulate resentment in my heart?
He Boqi didn't want to discuss He Laoxie's plans with He Jiubo anymore, because he also understood that things had come to this point and there was no room for maneuver.
Whether he wants to or not, accept or reject, he has to face the Way of Heaven and the order of the universe behind it.
Because all the people that Uncle Jiu just listed were born because of him, and he couldn't bear to part with them.
But when asked this question by Qi Boqi, Qi Jiubo shook his head.
"I don't know."
"I am just doing what your ancestor instructed me to do, but I don't know the specifics."
This made Yi Boqi frown again. He could sense that Yi Jiubo was not lying, but it also made him extremely wary.
Nothing that Master Xie does is without purpose. His deliberate cultivation of his murderous aura and inner rage must have a purpose.
"At the beginning?"
Uncle Jiu sighed and nodded.
"Yes, I haven't seen him for thousands of years either."
Then he turned to look at Yi Boqi.
“But I believe he must still be alive. Qi’er, you are my descendant. I know you are disgusted by the ancestor’s schemes and do not want to be a puppet to be manipulated.”
He then patted He Boqi on the shoulder.
“I used to firmly believe in the Founder, but since I got to know you and saw everything you did, that belief has begun to waver.”
"Although I would never have admitted it before I came, this is what I truly believe."
“Senior Dongfang is right. I can’t become like my father, and you can’t become like him either, but there’s more than one way to succeed.”
"Now, I'm on your side because your temperament and personality are really similar to mine, but you're more confident and determined than me."
“I like you as you are now, and I like Daqi as you are now. Since that’s the case, I, your ancestor, will be an unfilial son and accompany you, little guy, on this journey.”
"Even if I really have to die, I can still have a house full of children and grandchildren after I die."
“In this respect, he is half a son of my father.”
As he turned to leave, he tossed a token to Yi Boqi.
"Time is running out. The alien races will soon launch an attack on the boundary battlefield. Before that, let's take down Yun Qin. With this token, Yun Qin's people will be at your disposal."
Uncle Jiu, who had already walked more than ten zhang away, stopped and turned around.
"With you by their side, they won't die in vain."
He turned away after speaking.
"Leave the filth in the Heavenly Emperor's Palace to me. Go ahead and do it without worry."
"Don't pay too much attention to those good-for-nothings from the Zhang family. In front of my family, the Zhang family will always be a vassal."
"That old bastard Zhang isn't convinced, so I'll go beat him until he submits."
As Qi Boqi watched Qi Jiubo, the true ancestor, slowly disappear, his gaze became somewhat complicated.
He didn't spout any nonsense about saving the world or being entrusted with a great mission, nor did he use his status as the ancestor to force himself to act according to Xie Laoxie's plan.
He simply told Ye Boqi that at this point, the only option was to fight to the death, and that was the only way.
By handing over the Yunqinyi people to him, he made his stance clear.
He also disagreed with Old Xie's style of doing things, just like the saying, "If they follow you, they won't die in vain."
He was right about one thing: I am very similar to him, but I am more stubborn and have more reasons to persist.
After Uncle Jiu left, Xiao Gu arrived carrying a food box.
He placed the pastries one by one in front of He Boqi and spoke in a stiff tone.
"Everything in it is poisoned, are you going to eat it or not?"
He picked up a piece, threw it into his mouth, and chewed it vigorously. Then he gave her a thumbs up.
"It tastes terrible."
But these words brought a smile to Xiao Gu's tense face, because Xiao Boqi had eaten all the snacks on the table.
Finally, just like Xiaoxing, they put the residue in their palms and poured it into their mouths.
"Why do that? If you like it, I'll make it for you again."
He Boqi patted the crumbs of pastry off his hands and smiled slightly.
“No, those kids in Boqitang idolize me. How can an idol waste food? That would disappoint them.”
Xiao Gu sat opposite Qi Boqi with a reproachful expression, hesitated for a moment, and then asked Qi Boqi.
Are you confident?
Upon hearing this, Yi Boqi vigorously rubbed her head: "When have I ever done anything without being sure?"
Little Drum didn't show any displeasure at his actions; instead, she grabbed his hand and said earnestly.
"If it really comes to that, I will die before you."
"I can't bear to see you die in front of me."
She spoke very seriously, as if she were making a vow.
He Boqi sighed softly, reached out and smoothed a stray strand of hair from her forehead, then gently patted her head.
Don't worry.
He didn't offer much comfort to Xiaogu, nor did he know how to do so.
But that's why I persevered, and why I had to win.
After bidding farewell to Xiao Gu, Ye Boqi went to see Li Miaoru.
The young girl smiled sweetly at Xiao Boqi as always.
"His Highness is always the last to come and see me."
These words startled Ye Boqi, who sensed a hint of resentment in them.
To his surprise, the phoenix, covered in bandages, bowed respectfully to him.
With not a single feather left on its body, the ugly bird no longer held a trace of disdain in its eyes.
It seems that Xiao Jin's approach was correct; using violence to control violence can be effective in some ways, such as dealing with this wretched bird.
"I have everything prepared here, and I am ready to accompany Your Highness to the Imperial Land at any time."
After Li Miaoru finished speaking, she pointed in the direction of Wei Su.
"Qin Feng should be emerging from seclusion soon. I'm not so sure about Ninth Master, because Ninth Master is really..."
Even without Li Miaoru saying it, Yi Boqi knew that according to Yi Jiu's despicable methods, even if they were to engage in dual cultivation, they wouldn't do it quietly; he would cause so many troubles that it would make one want to kill him.
Fortunately, Lingxi is strong enough that with Lingxi around, this scoundrel can restrain himself quite a bit.
As for Li Miaoru, Yi Boqi had never hidden anything from her, so he told her everything he knew, including about Xiaoxing and the origin of the earth's core.
Because Li Miaoru is the only person in Daqi that Yiboqi can communicate with normally.
To Yi Boqi's surprise, Li Miaoru showed no worry or fear after hearing these shocking truths.
With a smile that never faded, she told Yi Boqi.
“I was originally a peasant girl from a mountain village. It was Your Highness who made me who I am today and changed the trajectory of my life.”
"Everything I have belongs to Your Highness, and fighting alongside Your Highness is what Miaoru desires most."
"I will die in battle without regret."
