Looking directly at the ancient gods for a whole year

Chapter 2434 The Prophet is Dead (Part 40)
It's reassuring that Senior Ji Feng's will seems to be still quite active.

Everything happened too fast. From the moment Holler attacked Akasha, the changes were overwhelming.

Although the two men who arrived by carriage seemed quite satisfied with the final result.

Akasha's words clearly indicate that the pervasive black, white, and gray atmosphere is the result she wants, suggesting that her team might be trying to exploit something triggered by outsiders.

Even though Lord Andy was excessively kind and never laid a hand on her again after they reunited, he still couldn't avoid this outcome.

So much so that she no longer needed to expend any effort to instigate him; she could simply leave.

In short, it's very gratifying.

What Akasha may not know is that Lord Andy is equally pleased to see this change.

That's right, seeing through the other party's intentions and then refusing to cooperate—I never planned to do something so pointless.

Before me was Brother Ji Feng's follow-up visit. All his actions were the same as last time: always "conversing" with the patient and observing his reactions.

This treatment principle has never changed.

Therefore, for those who are prepared, the goal of this trip is never to avoid accidents, but to observe how they happen.

For example, even if one tries to keep a low profile, nothing can be changed; the "eternal night" still descends irrationally.

Yes, judging from Akasha's reaction, if that team's aim was to use her as a trigger for "Eternal Night".

Given the current situation, could we conclude that the specific form of "Eternal Night" is this seemingly gray substance seeping out from everyone, combining together, and finally covering the entire Hill of the Unseen?
In conclusion, Fu Qian believes that Mr. Ji Feng still retains a certain degree of subjective initiative and is not simply reacting to his own stimuli without acting on his own, but rather demonstrating his own will.

Otherwise, if the ash formation appears even though one hasn't even had a sip of wine, it's just too sensitive.

In other words, He seems to be more positive about the coming of "eternal night" than one might imagine.

If that's the case, then the question we asked at the beginning—why this mission exists—seems to be starting to have an answer.

The old man, for some unknown reason, went to the other extreme after the matter of the Mother of the Gospel was resolved, wanting to completely destroy this unseen hill.

……

From this perspective, aren't Akasha and the others doing what is in accordance with the will of Heaven?

After making a series of conjectures without revealing his thoughts, Fu Qian seemed to have gained a deeper understanding of the continuous criminal activities currently taking place in Anmi-no-Hill.

After all, don't forget who these troublemakers are.

From the unlicensed healer to the lord, they are all characters who seem to have been "enlightened".

Including the way Akasha dealt with Holler just now, it far surpasses the methods of an ordinary demigod.

Before paying, I even did a special test and found that even if I made movements inside the spider web, I would inevitably suffer damage.

Are these insights actually the will of the Unseen Hill? Is Brother Ji Feng going through his rebellious phase?

If that's the case, then the danger of this trip has increased considerably.

Because the target is no longer a few criminals, but a direct confrontation with Ji Feng, the incarnation of You Su.

And it was on His home turf.

"you flatter me."

Assessing the current situation, he still made time to humbly praise Akasha, saying that he was just an ordinary outsider, and did not try to persuade her to stay.

Instead, the next moment he listened intently, as if there was something unusual happening.

Why does it sound like a woman is crying?

Holler frowned and spoke directly.

"She was crying, and her voice sounded quite young."

Fu Qian nodded to indicate that he hadn't misheard.

……

It's not just idle talk; as the gray dust filled the air, the sobbing of a young man became increasingly clear.

It wasn't a particularly sad sound; in fact, it resembled the relaxed posture of the people around them, giving off a sense of being asleep and having a nightmare. So who was crying? It couldn't possibly be the old man's original voice, could it?

Rejuvenation combined with gender swapping—that's a bit too rebellious.

"do you know?"

Before paying, he glanced at Akasha and casually confirmed.

This person had said they were leaving earlier, but hadn't actually done it yet. Even now, listening to the commotion, they seemed a little surprised.

"I'm sorry I didn't know, and this really means goodbye... You're not trying to stop me from staying, are you?"

However, after Fu Qian asked her a question, Akasha seemed to have adjusted her state and took her leave with a smile.

"No, please go ahead."

The response before payment was swift and decisive; not even the Silk Queen and her web disappeared without the use of the Thread of Longing.

"Should we go out and see what kind of trouble you've caused?"

Then he turned to Holler and offered his advice without batting an eye.

Given Akasha's euphemistic expression, Holler remains the culprit who triggered the current situation in this context.

"...But where to go?"

As expected, Holler hesitated for a moment before seemingly deciding to take responsibility.

However, he clearly had no idea how to do it.

"Go to places with lots of people."

Fu Qian, however, had already made up his mind and walked ahead.

……

Night had fallen, and even the entertainment street in Unseen Hill had quieted down, shrouded in a dull black and white.

The ashfall is still expanding, with no sign of stopping.

Those who had quickly emerged from the bar were not spared either; more than one person could be seen lying asleep on the street.

"That door?"

Not only Holler, but Crystal also came out.

Faced with this scene, she clearly understood Fu Qian's explanation: why they should go to crowded places.

The situation seems to be getting out of control, and this ever-expanding thing seems to be centered around individuals.

"Okay."

After glancing at her, Fu Qian readily accepted the offer.

"Why not clear out a seatbelt?"

Although Ashbringer had some differing opinions, Holler, who also understood that people were the key, was inclined to take some emergency measures.

"The one who should be dealing with this is yourself."

Unfortunately, I was rejected in a second. Before I could even explain, they just kept moving on.

……

Indeed, as a "source of infection," it seems that the first thing to do is self-isolate.

Holler wasn't so slow-witted that he immediately realized the problem with his suggestion.

“Even if you stay here and don’t move, the lord can still go and find other people. We’d better go and see if there’s any way to stop him.”

Fortunately, Crystal stepped in at the right moment, easing Holler's embarrassment somewhat. She said that it was impossible to deal with the fire now, and the only meaningful thing to do was to deal with the arsonists directly and find out what the group of people were trying to do.

Densely populated areas are clearly places they might prefer.
