Embers of Sword

Chapter 55: Shared Destiny (Please Read!)
All of this started with a divination using the Hunyuan Instrument.

During this divination, Chen Jingxuan unexpectedly saw an extremely eye-catching blood light... If ignored, this blood light would bring an extremely painful lesson to Da Chu.

"The art of divination can reveal the secrets of heaven, but it cannot fully reveal the destiny of heaven."

Chen Jingxuan said: "Just to see the blood, I paid the price of three years of my life... It is impossible to find it out by relying on the 'Hunyuan Instrument' alone."

"So... this is the situation today?"

Xie Xuanyi murmured.

"good."

Chen Jingxuan said calmly, "In the Lichao City situation, Jiang Qihu is a chess piece, and the Bai Ze Secret Realm is also a chess piece. In a sense, I am also a chess piece. Everything I do is to make the Demon Nation believe... that within this secret realm, which came into being by chance, there is an opportunity to obtain the [Dao Brush]. "

There are also disputes within the demon country now.

Several great masters were digesting the relics left by "Great Master Mo Ji".

When the Great Lord of the Demon Country learns of this news, he will definitely try every possible means to snatch the [Dao Pen] from Bai Ze Cave!
Xie Xuanyi frowned slightly: "So, the Bai Ze Secret Realm was fabricated by you, and the so-called [Da Dao Pen] opportunity is also fake?"

"No."

Chen Jingxuan shook his head and chuckled, "How could Jingxuan be so capable as to fabricate the secret cave of an ancient demon saint out of thin air? This Bai Ze cave is real."

"Misfortune lies where blessings depend, and blessing lies where misfortune lies."

The young national teacher said calmly, "Although I saw blood during that divination, I also saw a breakthrough... There is a blessed light shining in Lichao City. I asked Qi Hu to check it out, and he found something strange. The hidden formation pattern of Bai Ze Cave Mansion has revealed a corner flaw after being washed away by the long years. This blessed cave is the key to Lichao City's entry into the game."

The Bai Ze secret realm really exists!
This is the brilliance of Chen Jingxuan’s plan. The bait is real, so how could the big fish take the bait?
"So... Jiang Qihu leaked the news."

Xie Xuanyi whispered to himself: "This test is actually also a 'search for the enemy', right?"

Chen Jingxuan lamented, "The Demon Nation was very cautious and didn't reveal its true trump card. Qi Hu only had a brief 'spiritual meeting' with Venerable Long Mu. Obviously, the Demon Nation didn't believe that such a loyal hero would choose to betray Da Chu later... It's just that the news of the Bai Ze Secret Realm was too attractive."

"These days, many 'monks' are moving towards Qingzhou."

Chen Jingxuan tapped the table again, and thunder and lightning burst out from the chess pieces, transforming into scenes reflected from the nearby cities.

The Hunyuan Instrument is monitoring Qingzhou all the time!
When Xie Xuanyi saw this scene, his heart skipped a beat.

But he quickly recovered.

Xie Xuanyi observed carefully, but did not find any scene in Tai'an City. The scene that appeared in front of him at this moment was limited to the border of Qingzhou...

Ok.

This is reasonable.

Although Chen Jingxuan was a monster, he was just an ordinary man after all. It was already a heaven-defying thing for him to monitor an entire state by himself.

Who would carefully read every city?

"I think... the 'existence' that was deliberately protected by the Demon Country has most likely arrived at Lichao City."

Chen Jingxuan said calmly: "If my prediction is correct, once the Bai Ze Secret Realm comes into being, this incredible blood light will rise into the sky."

"You're crazy! This is a man-made disaster..."

Xie Xuanyi frowned and said, "The secrets of heaven are predetermined, how can we tamper with them at will?"

The plan set by Chen Jingxuan was to make the bloody light of unknown identity appear in the world in advance!

This is disrupting destiny and going against the will of heaven!

Xie Xuanyi is a sword cultivator and does not practice the art of great fortune, but he also knows... this is the biggest taboo among taboos. This kind of thing seems to be for the country's destiny, but if something unexpected happens, the retribution for interfering with the disaster will fall entirely on the person who interferes.

The laws of nature are unpredictable and destiny is predetermined. Those who are lucky should be grateful if they can get a glimpse of it.

all the time.

The monks who practice the art of great fortune all emphasize "following the will of heaven".

But now Chen Jingxuan is "going against the will of heaven"!
"The destiny is with me." Chen Jingxuan's expression remained unchanged, and he said calmly, "Whatever disaster there is, I will bear it myself."

"..."

Xie Xuanyi didn't know what to say for a moment.

He stared at the foolish guy in front of him who had joined the game without caring about it, and asked seriously: "Is it worth it for you to do this?"

When Shen Yan was killed before, Shen Yan sneered at Da Chu.

Along the way, Xie Xuanyi saw the dilapidated and miserable state of Da Chu today... although he didn't know what had happened in the imperial city in the past ten years.

But he knew.

Shen Yan might be right.

Today's Da Chu is in the midst of chaos, and it is a mess from top to bottom.

It’s difficult for Chen Jingxuan to clean up this mess.

Moreover, the situation in Lichao City is only the first step in regaining the country's fortunes. Every step thereafter will only become more difficult.

Those who try to peek into the secrets of heaven will have to pay with countless lives.

"Maybe not."

Unexpectedly, Chen Jingxuan did not give Xie Xuanyi a satisfactory answer.

This young scholar with white hair sat in front of the desk, waving his sleeves to extinguish the glow of the chess pieces. He still maintained a dignified sitting posture, but a hint of melancholy flashed across his eyes.

Chen Jingxuan said softly, "Ten years ago, Da Chu did something that disappointed me... I was still young at that time, and there were many things I couldn't change."

“But it’s different now.”

“There are some things I want to try.”

Chen Jingxuan raised his head.

He didn't know why he opened his heart to a stranger he had never met before and said such words tonight.

But for the "Dayun" monk, what matters is doing what one wants.

After revealing his true feelings to Jialiu in front of him, Chen Jingxuan felt much more relaxed.

Ten years ago...

Xie Xuanyi remained calm on the surface, but a complex emotion welled up in his heart.

The disappointing thing that Chen Jingxuan mentioned was that Da Chu insisted on issuing a warrant for his arrest?
"Before Qi Hu left, I used the Hun Yuan Instrument to divine again."

Chen Jingxuan's words interrupted Xie Xuanyi's thoughts.

He cleared his throat and said, "This time, I saw a glimmer of light in the 'Carp Tide City' game that was not within the control of fate."

"???"

Xie Xuanyi was stunned.

"This glimmer of light had not yet appeared when I was planning it—"

"But this time when the Hunyuan Instrument was used for divination, this ray of light suddenly appeared in the center of the countless causal threads, almost at the same level as me."

Chen Jingxuan smiled and said, "This is why we meet tonight. My friend, whether you believe it or not, I have been waiting for you at the Zhidao Bookstore."

"For this game in Lichao City, I would like to ask you to join me..."

"We share destiny!"
