Chapter 192 The whole life is fake
Zhuo Qingfeng's sudden sword attack caught everyone off guard, and everyone was shocked. No one expected that Zhuo Qingfeng would suddenly attack Bai Qiliao.

However, Master Jingkong was right in front of him, and he quickly carried Bai Qiliao on his back and retreated to avoid Zhuo Qingfeng's sword.

But at the moment he stepped back,

Suddenly, I felt a burst of scorching heat coming from behind me. It turned out that Gu Chudong had also taken action. She waved the Gou Chen Demon Sword and slashed towards Bai Qiliu.

The suddenness of this knife strike was no less than Zhuo Qingfeng's sword strike. The key was that he and Zhuo Qingfeng were one in front and one behind, and their coordination was too tacit.

Master Jingkong had no time to take Bai Qiliao to hide, and could only worry.

However, what shocked everyone even more was what happened next. Bai Qiliao, who was clearly in a dying state, actually broke free from Master Jingkong's back at the moment when Gu Chudong's knife was about to fall, turned into a stream of light and flew past, avoiding the knife.

Gu Chudong's knife almost hit Master Jingkong's back, but it was stopped at the last half inch.

For a time,

Inside the cave, everyone was stunned and completely confused.

Zhuo Qingfeng and Gu Chudong's sudden attack caught everyone present off guard, but Bai Qiliao's sudden resurrection with full blood shocked everyone present even more.

For a moment, no one knew what to do, and their eyes looked back and forth between Gu Chudong, Zhuo Qingfeng and Bai Qiliu.

At this moment, Bai Qiliao was standing in the corner of the cave. However, he no longer looked weak at all. His spirit and energy seemed to have changed completely. He looked at Zhuo Qingfeng with confusion and said, "I don't understand. How did I give myself away? I believe I have done nothing wrong."

Zhuo Qingfeng didn't answer, but looked at Gu Mo and said, "Brother Gu, I'm also confused. How did you notice the problem?"

Everyone looked at Gu Mo.

Gu Mo said calmly: "Intuition."

Bai Qiliao was slightly stunned, then smiled and said, "What a hunch! You are indeed the Yunzhou hero, the youngest internal energy master in the world. I've heard that when one's internal energy reaches a certain level, one can become as powerful as nature and possess a sense of connection with the universe. I didn't believe it before, but now I do."

Gu Mo: “…”

It's true that when one's inner strength reaches a certain level, one can possess a sense of divine connection. He often experiences this feeling now. Just like when he gifted Yu Shijiu with the sword at Jackdaw Ferry. While part of this was because he truly admired Yu Shijiu, another part of it was that he had an inexplicable feeling that the sword belonged to Yu Shijiu.

As expected, the sword played a great role in Yu Shijiu's hands and saved Master Jingkong.

Just like when they were in Qingzhou City, Master Dingchan insisted on sending the ancient Buddha's relics to Gu Mo. Later, Gu Mo also speculated that a big reason for this was that Master Dingchan also felt that the fate of the Buddhist beads was in his hands.

but,

This time is different.

This time he was able to sense that something was wrong with Bai Qiliao, mainly because of the system.

The five-star mission the system had assigned him, to hunt down "zombies," wasn't a failed mission, which meant the zombies were alive. Previously, he'd fallen into a misconception, subconsciously assuming the zombie was He Changqing.

Until just now,

Lin Duanyun said that he led Ke Wenshui to believe a life story he made up for him.

Gu Mo suddenly realized that the system's mission target had always been the zombie, not He Changqing. This also meant that the zombie didn't necessarily have to be He Changqing. Back then, everyone thought it was He Changqing, but that didn't necessarily mean the real zombie was He Changqing.

Subsequently,

I also heard Master Jingkong swear that He Changqing was dead.

Gu Mo was basically certain that He Changqing back then might have died for someone else just like Ke Wenshui, and the real zombie was someone else.

And if this speculation is correct, it means that Lin Duanyun is also a substitute, and the most likely person who can subtly guide Lin Duanyun to become a substitute is Bai Qiliao.

Immediately, Gu Mo decided to give Bai Qiliu a try, and sent a message to Zhuo Qingfeng and Gu Chudong, because their positions were the most suitable for attacking, making it impossible for Bai Qiliu to react.

……

"Master Gu, aren't you afraid that your intuition is wrong?" Bai Qiliu asked.

Gu Mo shook his head slightly and said, "My sister's swordsmanship is not bad, she can control it. But, Master Bai, I'm afraid you don't dare to gamble."

Bai Qiliao said, "I'd bet on Lord Zhuo's sword, but I wouldn't bet on the knife in Lady Gu's hand. That knife could really kill me. What a pity! My perfect plan was ruined by my intuition!"

at this time,

The bound Lin Duanyun was bewildered and exclaimed, "What the hell are you talking about? Bai Qiliao, what's wrong with you?"

Not only Lin Duanyun was confused, everyone present was confused, including Yang Tingyun, Master Jingkong, and others, all of whom looked bewildered.

Zhuo Qingfeng said in a deep voice, "Master Lin, I have to tell you a very sad truth. Everything you do is under the control of Bai Qiliao. Even you, just like you guided Ke Wenshui, everything you do is guided by Bai Qiliao, and his purpose is the same as yours. You guided Ke Wenshui to perfectly hide the fact that you practiced zombie skills, and Bai Qiliao did the same thing."

"Impossible!" Lin Duanyun roared, "How could he possibly practice Zombie Kung Fu? Moreover, once Zombie Kung Fu is mastered, the Eight Extraordinary Meridians will disappear. Even if one has achieved the Golden Body Perfection, it is impossible to restore the Eight Extraordinary Meridians. Bai Qiliao has been imprisoned here for so long. He has the Eight Extraordinary Meridians and he has fresh blood. How could he possibly practice Zombie Kung Fu?"

Zhuo Qingfeng said, "That's not difficult. The Zombie Art you practiced was actually taught to you by Bai Qiliao. From the beginning to the end, there was no mention of He Changqing teaching you the art. It was all done by Bai Qiliao. Therefore, your Zombie Art is incomplete. That's why you don't know that after mastering the Zombie Art, you can return to a normal body." Having said that, Zhuo Qingfeng looked at Bai Qiliao and asked, "Master Bai, am I right?"

"Yes, and also wrong."

Bai Qiliao said slowly: "He Changqing is indeed a genius. He once explored the Ruins of Xuanxu, which appears only once every forty years, and found a secret martial arts manual there that cannot be practiced.

That secret manual was also created by a person of extraordinary talent, but unfortunately, it was never recorded in the world. It was a martial art that broke with conventions, abandoning the eight meridians and tendons. However, strangely enough, it was impossible to practice it at all.

But He Changqing was a genius. Although he couldn't practice that martial art, he applied its concept. He adapted the Huajian School's inherited martial art, Bingpo Gong, also known as Zombie Gong, based on that martial art's concept. This was also the Zombie Gong that Lin Duanyun practiced.

But I'm no weaker than He Changqing. Building on his foundation, I've further refined the Zombie Kung Fu. Once it's fully developed, it can reshape the Eight Extraordinary Meridians and cultivate a fire-attributed internal energy, allowing frozen blood to circulate once again. This will achieve a state of yin and yang balance, eliminating the need to suck blood to resist the cold poison.

Lin Duanyun looked at Bai Qiliao and said, "You have nothing to be proud of. If my father hadn't died, he would have definitely done what you can do better than you. You still want to compare yourself with my father? It's a joke. When he was alive, who were you, Bai Qiliao? How dare you say you are not inferior to my father?"

Bai Qiliu looked at Lin Duanyun, chuckled, and said, "Alas, I didn't want to kill you, but you're almost dead, so I think I should let you know the truth. Lin Duanyun, you are not He Changqing's son. The life story you are so proud of is fake!"

Lin Duanyun widened his eyes and roared, "What nonsense are you talking about?"

Bai Qiliao shook his head slightly and said, "I'm not talking nonsense. To be honest, you are sympathizing with Ke Wenshui, thinking that he is living in a lie and that he is very pathetic. In fact, he is not pathetic. The real pathetic one is you.

Ke Wenshui, he is really He Changqing's son. Although everything he did was manipulated, it was at least meaningful. He has indeed been avenging his father all along, and you are the real pitiful creature! "

"Nonsense!" Lin Duanyun's anger was so intense that he felt like he was about to explode. He roared, "Don't you dare try to deceive me? I made up Ke Wenshui's life story based on my own. Don't I know whether he's real or not?"

Bai Qiliao smiled and shook his head, saying, "What you said before makes a lot of sense. The best substitute is one that does everything by its own choice.

The same goes for lies. The most unbreakable lie is the one that's actually true. Think about it, you haven't been with Ke Wenshui for a long time. Why do you think the story you fabricated for him is perfect? ​​Ke Wenshui isn't stupid, so how could he not notice it from the beginning?
Why did he never doubt his discovery of his origins? It was because his origins were real. No matter how he checked, the results were all true, because he really was He Changqing's son, and his childhood experiences were real, too; he just recalled them.

Lin Duanyun staggered and nearly fell to the ground, his breathing becoming rapid. He said, "Then...what about me...why do I have memories? Why have I never doubted it?"

Bai Qiliao said, "I originally planned to bring Ke Wenshui to Qiongshan Sect, but his talent was too ordinary to complete my plan. You are the one I carefully selected.

A child with a poor memory and a weak mind and will, I used mystical spiritual techniques to control and guide him day after day, gradually changing his memory. Then I disrupted Ke Wenshui's memory and sealed it away.

Otherwise, do you really think a five or six-year-old child like you could hide your desire for revenge from me? That you could hide it from so many people in the Qiongshan Sect? It's because I've been covering for you, training and guiding you intentionally or unintentionally. Including your finding Ke Wenshui and guiding him to be your substitute, all of this was planned by me.

Lin Duanyun, the truly pathetic person is you. You have never had a life of your own."
