Chapter 261 My Destiny is in My Hands
Xie Jiuxiao was surprised by Chu Ge's attitude.
I thought I was doomed to die, but it turned out that this Heavenly Dao really didn't seem to care about my rebellion and provocation, or even my ambition to replace him?
What matters is “why” and “how”.
He thought about it and said slowly: "What if... I don't tell you?"
Chu Geqi asked: "Why? It's already like this..."
"I told you that after you fill the gap, no one in the world will be able to break free." Xie Jiuxiao said calmly: "Even Qiu Wuji and Yan Qianlie have become dogs under their saddles. This world is hopeless. I must at least leave a glimmer of hope for those who come after me."
"Bang" "Bang"!
Two loud claps of the table rang out at the same time: "Who are you calling a dog?"
Chu Ge waved his hand: "Sit down first, let's get down to business."
Yan Qianlie remained silent.
Qiu Wuji glared at Chu Ge, his face turned a little red, and he said nothing.
Dogs are different from each other, and the degree of humiliation is different. I'll teach you a lesson later when I get back.
Xie Jiuxiao had a blank expression on his face: "That's it. This is not the Qiu Wuji in my heart, nor is it the Yan Qianlie in my heart. This world is hopeless."
Three people: "..."
Chu Ge sighed, "Old Xie, why bother? If you don't tell us, we can search your soul and find out everything. To put it bluntly, I can even make you tell me everything like a dog, but I don't want to do that. It's a matter of respect."
Xie Jiuxiao's eyes moved slightly, and he became more and more surprised: "You respect me? I am just a creature created by you. Life and death are up to you."
"I respect every living being I created." Chu Ge said, "Why do you think Qiuqiu...Qiu Wuji, Yan Qianlie, are willing to join forces with me and submit to me out of fear of the power of heaven? Is that really Qiu Wuji?"
Yan Qianlie wanted to say that it seemed like he really surrendered because of the intimidation of the tyranny... Never mind.
Qiu Wuji asked: "Brother Xie, do you think I have been modified by someone?"
Xie Jiuxiao stared at her for a long while, and finally shook his head: "No."
There was some anger in Qiu Wuji's eyes: "So, I have been friends with Brother Xie for thousands of years, but Brother Xie thinks I am just a sycophant?"
Xie Jiuxiao was stunned, thinking of how Qiu Wuji had rushed to drink first and Tian Dao was silent, and seemed to be thinking about something.
He drank a sip of wine silently and whispered, "The flaws of the way of heaven actually have clues if you look closely. I noticed a long time ago that Chu Tiange and my daughter Yun'er had feelings for each other, but later they became ordinary friends for some reason. I asked Yun'er several times in a roundabout way and made sure that she herself didn't know that she had feelings for Chu Tiange... This is weird, how could I, as a father, be wrong? A father must be very sensitive to a brat who wants to kidnap his own daughter!"
Chu Ge: “…”
"It just so happened that I noticed the overlooking of Heaven at that time, and I was thinking that this must be fate forcibly distorted by Heaven, which led to the disharmony between the beginning and the end, and the transition in the middle did not even have any logic. Well, to be honest, I am quite grateful to Heaven for handling it this way... What brat wants to kidnap my daughter?"
Chu Ge: “…………”
"But the feedback from this incident made me think deeply. Our fate is controlled by the heaven. How can we get rid of it?" Xie Jiuxiao said this in one breath. He refilled his glass with wine, gulped it down again, sighed, and continued: "I thought, since the heaven distorts fate and there are inharmonious places, then if I carefully examine all the inharmonious places, can I feel a little secret of the heaven's secrets?"
Chu Ge took a deep breath: "Really?"
"Yes... Just like a crack in time and space, you can feel the meaning of time and space. The principle here is similar. Where fate is twisted, you can feel the tampering of fate. My daughter is one of them, and the other is..." Xie Jiuxiao smiled: "I didn't expect it to be Qiu Wuji at the time."
Qiu Wuji looked stern: "Have you discovered something different about me?"
"Yes." Xie Jiuxiao said, "At that time, it happened to be the decisive battle between you and Yan Qianlie. I nominated you as the leader without hesitation. From your order, do you know why? I originally thought that my strength must not be enough to go against the will of heaven. Can I contact Qiu Wuji and others to start an uprising together?"
Qiu Wuji said: "You didn't tell me this."
"This is a serious matter, so of course I have to observe first before I can say anything." Xie Jiuxiao smiled: "My Yunxiao City overlooks the world, and I do have the desire to be a hegemon myself, but I am willing to assist you, is it just because a gentleman does not fight? No, I think with your sharpness and fierceness, you will be the pioneer of the rebellion, so I am willing to follow in your footsteps, but after observing you, I am a little disappointed."
Qiu Wuji was silent for a moment, then whispered, "Did you discover something during my battle with Yan Qianlie? Do you think I'm leaning towards the Heavenly Dao?"
Xie Jiuxiao clapped his hands, "That's right. Not only during the decisive battle, but also before that, there were some strange behaviors that always made me feel that you might not be on the same path as us. This is another story... Mainly, the twisting of your fate at that time, and Yan Qianlie's suppression of Bai Yan when he wiped out the white flame, I saw it all, which was quite helpful for my understanding. Gradually, I also realized some methods of tampering with other people's thinking and destiny, and I named it the Qitian Gong."
Chu Ge said: "Very impressive. I never thought that this could be captured by someone with insight."
Xie Jiuxiao smiled: "So will Father God fill this loophole? In fact, I have also discovered that even if I don't say it, Father God seems to have already taken this action. Some of the previous feelings of separation and disharmony are disappearing."
"Is that why you're willing to be honest? You think I'm doing it anyway."
"Hehe..." Xie Jiuxiao smiled and said nothing more.
Chu Ge and Qiu Wuji looked at each other, and the couple sipped their wine in silence.
The so-called gap filling is of course the comics. Through the secondary completion of the comics, the styles of the past and present are unified and some gaps are filled.
The plot changes were made by Chu Ge himself, but the artist was Qiu Wuji. In a sense, if Chu Ge is the father god, Qiu Wuji is now a bit like the mother god...
So Qiu Wuji, with his thick eyebrows and big eyes, betrayed his class!
As expected, Xie Jiuxiao said, "Sect Master Qiu, after you dominated Jiuzhou, I returned to Yunxiao and we stopped communicating. I felt that you had descended from Heaven and were even working for it. Otherwise, even if Yunxiao City returned according to Heaven's destiny, our personal relationship should not be limited to it. Why did it end?"
Qiu Wuji sighed deeply: "So that's how it is. You didn't trust me at that time."
"Yes... On the contrary, I trust Yan Qianlie more and think that his rebellious intentions are definitely the strongest. I didn't expect..." Xie Jiuxiao looked at Yan Qianlie speechlessly, wanting to say something but stopping himself.
Yan Qianlie slammed the table: "You want to call me a dog again, right?"
"No." Xie Jiuxiao said with a straight face: "You said it yourself."
"Fuck..." Yan Qianlie wanted to flip the table, but Chu Ge waved his hand: "Wait, stop arguing, let's talk business."
Yan Qianlie drank in silence.
I thought he was here to fight, but he was here to listen to my complaints.
Although this chatter is somewhat interesting, Xie Jiuxiao is very thoughtful and observant, and he is really different from me.
Chu Ge said: "So you used puppets to approach Qiu Wuji and tried to modify her consciousness, while you tried to win over Yan Qianlie to cooperate."
"That's right." Xie Jiuxiao said, "Since Father God is here in person, I would like to ask, I think I have set up multiple suspicious arrays, and it is impossible to find that I am behind the scenes. How did Father God find out? Is it really that the Heavenly Dao overlooked it? Then are all our actions meaningless..."
"I'm not looking down, I'm just solving a case for fun." Chu Ge certainly wouldn't reveal that his bird's-eye view was actually very rough and it was difficult for him to discover all the details in the world. The main reason why he wanted to go out into the world was for these things. Only by seeing more of everything in the world could he gain a more subtle control.
He could only pretend to be calm and said indifferently: "Among all the sects in the world, there is only Yunxiao City, which has been in Yunxiao for a long time, that stands out the most. This is one of them."
Xie Jiuxiao listened attentively: "What about the second one?"
"Because only Xie Jiuxiao's thoughts would be so layered, like clouds and fog. To put it bluntly, his personality is hesitant and fussy." Chu Ge said helplessly: "I set it up... The more you bend, the more I guess it's you, and with Qi Tian's appearance, it's certain."
Xie Jiuxiao was silent.
Chu Ge said: "After you comprehended the Qi Tian Gong, you didn't dare to practice it rashly, fearing that I would find out, so you went to the southern border and exchanged the witchcraft puppet technique with the Gu God. You learned the puppet technique not only to deepen your understanding of the meaning of controlling fate, but also to let the puppet test the minefield to see if there is any problem with the newly created skill. But in the process, you changed."
Xie Jiuxiao looked up at him.
Chu Ge's expression was stern. "The puppets of witchcraft manipulate living people. When you ignore their own wishes and impose your will on them, over time you will develop the intention of... manipulating all living things, looking down on and playing with them as if you were a god. The puppets in your hands are just puppets, and they have lost their own compassion."
Xie Jiuxiao protested: "You don't? Have you ever cared about what we think?"
Chu Ge was silent for a while, then sighed: "Maybe. But... you were created by me, and before this I didn't know you had your own will. And Lu Shaotong is not a puppet you made, he is a living person. You think you are getting closer to the will of heaven, but have you ever thought that this is not the way of heaven, but the way of the devil?"
Xie Jiuxiao thought for a long time in a daze, and it was difficult to distinguish the difference between the cold way of heaven and the cruel way of evil.
"You blamed the Gu God and provoked a dispute between Shenzhou and Southern Xinjiang. Have you ever thought that this is also an evil act that will bring disaster to the common people? Step by step, you are going further and further astray. Your greed for seizing the heaven has replaced your ideal of rebelling against the way of heaven. Do you know that you are wrong?"
Xie Jiuxiao blurted out: "No, I have other intentions in blaming the Gu God."
"Oh? I'd like to hear more about it."
"When I did this, I knew it was not an honorable act, but I thought that Xie Jiuxiao would not do such a thing. There was no war between Shenzhou and Southern Xinjiang. But if I did it, what if there was a war? What would happen to the way of heaven?" Xie Jiuxiao sighed: "When I thought of this, I no longer had any scruples."
Qiu Wuji finally spoke: "This is an excuse, Brother Xie, it convinced you."
Xie Jiuxiao's words were stuck in his throat. He was stunned for a long time before he smiled bitterly: "Maybe."
He said slowly: "In fact, I have thought of another way to achieve a similar change, but I didn't want to at that time... I think now is the right time."
Chugo raised his brow.
Xie Jiuxiao was hunched over, his gaunt face looked old and haggard, he was actually practicing meditation on his own!
His voice began to grow old, and he smiled gently: "Father God just said that I have a life. But my life is controlled by me, not by Father God. I paid for Lu Shaotong and Venerable Green Snake's lives myself to atone for my own sins. Let me ask one more question. If I say that I have no life, does the Heavenly Dao care? Haha...hahaha..."
The more he spoke, the happier he became, and he finally laughed wildly: "The Lord of Yunxiao City thanked Jiuxiao for his contribution to the tribulation, which should be an important part of the destiny of heaven. Today, it ended unexpectedly. The wheel of destiny in this world is missing this wooden nail. Will it still move forward? I am looking forward to it!"
The laughter faded and the man was dead.
Yan Qianlie stared blankly at Xie Jiuxiao who committed suicide with a smile on his face. After a long while, he managed to utter, "There are also great people among the righteous. I, Yan Qianlie, admire them!"
