"If you feel bored, you can try coming to my party next time."

Kevin rarely said anything philosophical, but instead spoke something that sounded like an invitation to Jing Liu.

"Your party? If there's a chance, I'd really like to go and see it. Let's just consider it as an agreement we've made."

Jingliu grinned and responded to Kevin's invitation, then quickly turned around and said to Jingyuan who was walking behind him: "It's time to send me off to Xuling, Jingyuan."

"The laws of the alliance cannot be changed... Unfortunately, your next stop is not Xuling, but Yuque."

Jing Yuan mercilessly cut off Jing Liu's thoughts, and then explained: "I reported this matter to the Marshal, but unexpectedly, the 'General Rong Tao' was quite interested and actually stopped him halfway, setting up the 'Ten Directions Light Reflecting Dharma Realm', hoping to meet you two first."

"...Jing Yuan, you are still the same as always, always trying to struggle and break other people's plans."

Obviously, Jingliu didn't believe that this incident was caused by someone else. But she didn't get angry, she just said softly: "But you, Yunqi, and the generals of the Imperial Bow... are just pawns in the game of God. I am tired of walking on the predetermined fate."

"It's okay. I'll walk a little further with you, but the ending won't change. I'll always be on the winning side."

I don't know what price Jingliu paid, and what method he found to be so sure that he can eliminate "abundance" from the universe. But as a former disciple and comrade-in-arms, Jing Yuan can only do a little bit now...

"Then I will play this game to the end."

Chapter 214 Because They Will Do It

While everyone was talking not far away, the guy who used to be called Ying Xing, but was now just Ren, just stood there, watching everything motionlessly.

It was not until everyone was about to get up and leave that he slowly walked forward and stood beside Jingliu.

"Wait! Jingliu, before you leave, you still owe me a reward."

"I tried, but I couldn't help you more than leaving more wounds on your body."

Jingliu turned around and faced his former companion, telling the truth: "Your immortal body is definitely not something that can be easily dismissed. Killing the flesh and blood of the immortal god with a human sword, this should have been told to you by the 'Slave of Fate', right?"

"Slave of Fate" - this is the code name that the "Company" gave to the star core hunter who could predict the future on the wanted list. They obviously knew a lot about his ability, but they had never really made it public.

But regarding the term "slave of fate", in Kevin's opinion, it may be more suitable for Aponia at the time... She had tried countless times to cut the strings of fate over mankind, but had never truly succeeded even once.

That feeling is undoubtedly despairing.

However, based on the current known situation, the situation predicted by the star core hunter is obviously not so absolute.

And as for the immortal body that Blade possesses...isn't it just as Jingliu said, that Ying Xing originally attempted to get his hands on the flesh and blood of the God of Fertility, but ended up getting infected and degenerating into this state?

Just Jianmu alone has the power to bring dead things back to life and grant immortality. So what kind of ability should the true messenger of "Abundance" have to be worthy of his status?

But Kevin had reason to believe that, just like the illusion he had when he was blessed by Jianmu, Blade's immortality could not have come without reason - it was just that his connection with "abundance" was closer and more obscure, and it was a level that mortals could not reach at all.

Otherwise, Jingliu would not have given such an answer.

"He did. But you still owe me a sword."

As a short-lived person, he was able to look down upon the factory of Xianzhou. Don't think too much about it, and you can tell that Ying Xing was definitely an arrogant and humble man who would never be willing to be inferior to anyone, and was full of youthful spirit.

But at this moment, there was no arrogance on his face, and even no expression. It can be imagined that he did not lose most of his memory like Dan Heng... This is even more painful.

"I told you this when I taught you the sword. I don't attack people who have no interest in life and are waiting to be killed--"

"--Only an opponent can make you draw your sword." Ren added the second half of Jingliu's words expressionlessly, then took a step forward, holding the sword and facing the teacher who taught him this set of swordsmanship.

"Jingliu, I am here to return your teachings of the sword."

It's easy to imagine that the teaching was not so gentle at the beginning. Instead, Jingliu engraved the pain into Ren's body with one sword after another, which made him realize such extreme sword intent between life and death countless times.

"Alas... cherish this moment. I'll give you a brief opportunity."

As Jingliu agreed to the duel after an imperceptible sigh, the people nearby consciously retreated to the back, giving the two men enough space to distinguish life from death.

The two of them circled each other and gradually distanced themselves from each other. After reaching the right position, Ren raised the sword in his hand without hesitation. However, Jingliu...recalled the past as if no one was around.

"Seven hundred years ago, we were here like this... chatting, laughing, fighting... full of energy and looking forward to the future."

"The way you looked at that time is still lingering in my mind, as if it was a dream from last night."

boom--!

With a loud bang, the sword energy from the blade plowed through the ground and rushed in front of Jingliu. However, Jingliu just slightly turned sideways to avoid this seemingly oppressive attack, and even took a few steps forward to arrive in front of the blade in an instant.

boom--!

Along with the initial collision sound, two sword blades, one blue and one red, quickly began to interweave on the ground - they were so fast, almost like flashes of light, flashing here one moment and lighting up dozens of meters away the next.

At first, the red blade was chasing the blue one. But soon the situation began to reverse. First, the speeds of the two gradually became equal. Later, the blue sword light completely suppressed the red one...

boom--!

After a deafening collision, the blade fell from midair to the ground, and with the blade inserted into the ground, it slid for several meters before successfully stopping. However, Jingliu stood on the high wall without any damage.

"I thought such happy days would last as long as the lifespan of the immortal boat people, day after day, indefinitely."

"But... the dream... will eventually end, like clouds dispersing. Just like this seemingly long life, it will also come to an end one day."

As soon as he finished speaking, Jingliu's figure instantly transformed into a stream of light and rushed downwards. Ren naturally stood up again and faced the stream of light. After jumping up, he swung his sword and rushed straight up -

----boom!

The dazzling light in the air only lasted for less than half a second, and the blade flew down from it at a faster speed. After hitting the ground heavily, it even slid for dozens of meters before finally stopping at Kevin's feet in an unsightly shape.

"It feels so familiar..."

"It was like returning to the first day of swordsmanship training. She held the sword made by Yingxing...piercing, cutting, and piercing again and again, over and over again..."

"The sword moves that once descended upon my enemies are now engraved on this abominable body, and I can only watch my flesh and blood twitch, heal, and recover... She seemed to be asking, 'Why, why did you commit this evil with Yinyue?'"

"I know I can't give her an answer, and she doesn't expect my answer. But there is always one question that makes me ask myself a thousand times in my mind -"

Blade, who was lying on the ground, raised his head and looked up at Kevin, who was looking down at him. He asked softly, "Why do you think that only evil creatures can come back again and again?"

"..."

Just like what Ren said, Jingliu didn't expect his answer, in fact, he might not expect Kevin's answer either. But Kevin still closed his eyes slightly and gave him an answer.

"Because this world has never changed in the slightest due to anyone's will. Even the Star Gods will only do what they want."

Chapter 215: There are many ways to say goodbye to the past

"So what you mean is that I'm not strong enough, or even crazy enough, which is why I ended up in this situation?"

"Perhaps this is true, otherwise, I wouldn't be so eager to die... Because at least in that short, dreamlike death, I wouldn't feel so painful..."

As Kevin watched, Ren, lying on the ground, gradually closed his eyes and stopped breathing. There was no doubt that, at least at this moment, he was indeed in a state of physiological death.

No matter how advanced the medical technology is, it is almost impossible to revive a person in this state. But just a few seconds later, the blade that should have been dead suddenly opened his eyes wide.

He opened his mouth wide and tried his best to breathe in the air around him, just like a drowned person who had just climbed onto the shore from the ocean. The functions of his entire body were stretched to the limit in an instant... Kevin had reason to believe that the feeling would definitely be very uncomfortable.

But Ren only relaxed for a moment before he stood up again with his torn spirit. When he looked around again, he found that Jing Yuan and Jing Liu had disappeared - they did not give him another chance.

As a star core hunter wanted by the "Company", he probably won't have a chance to meet Jing Yuan, the general of the Immortal Boat, in private again. As for Jing Liu... he doesn't know what the other party's plan is, nor does he know if she can come back.

"When she left, she said that maybe when she witnessed the fall of Abundance with her own eyes, you and I would be able to experience true liberation."

As a result, Dan Heng did come to Ren and brought these words to the man who had been chasing him.

But Jian just stared at him coldly, just like he did every time before. The only difference was that this time he did not rush to take action, but just said: "Her sword can't do it, she still can't do it. Then the two of us can only continue this chase, this is the price you and I have to pay."

"I will stick with you till the end."

To this day, Dan Heng still does not think that he and Dan Feng are the same person without any difference. However, his sense of responsibility makes it impossible for him to completely abandon this price.

"Hmph... In Elio's script, you still need to stay alive for the time being. My old friend, although we have become enemies, hunting is the only chance for us to meet."

Even though the words sounded quite ambiguous, the murderous aura revealed by Ren did not seem fake at all. He turned around and walked away, replying with cold eyes: "I don't mind prolonging the process of revenge. Maybe it will be more interesting this way."

After he finished speaking, Ren turned around and left, without any attachment to this place that he once was so familiar with.

"..."

After watching the other person leave, Dan Heng finally turned his head and looked at the person standing next to him: "Sorry, Mr. Kevin, I made you laugh again."

"Do you think you are still Dan Feng? Or do you feel unfair because you bear his sins?" Kevin suddenly asked the boy, who was not that old mentally.

"To be honest, I don't really know the answer to this question... because my past self, or that person named Dan Feng, didn't actually leave me with many useful memories."

"I don't remember the other four of the Cloud Five, nor do I know what unforgettable memories I had with them... These things occasionally appear in my mind, but they are not something I can catch whenever I want."

"But General Jing Yuan told me that due to the methods used by those Dragon Master Elders, I have not experienced a true reincarnation. In other words, although I am Dan Heng, I am also another person who is not completely separated from Dan Feng. I will inherit his past, but this does not mean that I will abandon myself."

Is it true that as long as a person loses his memory, he can completely say goodbye to his past?

The answer is definitely not that simple. Because in a sense, people are not completely independent individuals. Their social nature means that they will meet and interact with many different people in their lives. Their lives do not completely belong to themselves, but are also an extremely important part of other people's lives.

"There are many ways to say goodbye to the past. But escaping is definitely the worst one." Kevin nodded, agreeing with Dan Heng's answer.

In comparison, with Dan Heng as a precedent, the performance of those other naughty kids can simply be described as disgusting.

Can't they learn from others?

After secretly shaking his head, Kevin finally remembered the original reason why he came here, and asked Dan Heng: "Then you should have seen Bai Lu, right?"

"I want to know if the memories left by Dan Feng tell you whether there are any hidden dangers left in that child?"

After hearing Kevin's question, Dan Heng was stunned for a moment, then he slightly turned his head to cover his forehead. After a moment, he asked Kevin softly, "Mr. Kevin, don't you care at all why Bai Lu was able to become the new Dragon Lord?"

If all the ideas went according to plan without any accidents, then Dan Feng and Ying Xing's plan had not actually failed completely... and such a truth might even still attract people's covetousness, because any intelligent creature would inevitably fall into the bitter pursuit of longevity.

But Kevin happened to be the kind of person who didn't care about such things at all.

"Why did she become like this? This question has no meaning to me. Isn't this how the Chiming Clan reincarnates? Will it wash away everything from the past?"

Kevin replied calmly, "I don't care about other things. I just want to know if there are any hidden dangers in this child now."

After hearing Kevin's answer, Dan Heng was stunned, and then he sighed:

"As expected of Mr. Kevin..."

"Please rest assured, the power inheritance of the Chiming tribe will never bring them any negative effects. Any seemingly abnormal changes are actually only for her good."

"After all, that person back then...how could he bear to let anything happen to her again..."

Chapter 216: Oh no, Boss Kevin, someone is coming from the company! ! ! !

Time flies, and soon several days have passed quietly. Compared with the time in dangerous events, the leisure time seems so short. It makes people feel that they have not done anything yet, and time has quietly slipped through their fingers.

Of course, this only applies to Kevin - for the girls who trained under him, those were completely nightmare days.

After all, Kevin's training was completely unconventional. Not only was there no systematic training tutorial, there was no high-level theoretical guidance either. It was just following the route he arranged and repeating certain movements that looked easy, but after a few hours, it made people want to bang their heads against the wall.

But the most outrageous thing is that these seemingly weird movements are actually very effective?

Every time after a hard day of training, they can clearly feel that their strength has increased... This is something they couldn't achieve even with several months of normal training, so who could have expected it to become so easy at this moment?

Wait...okay, this doesn't seem simple at all?

But finally, after more than half of the day's training had been carried out, Kevin, who had been sitting in the corner reading a book, suddenly stood up, called everyone to him, and preached like this -

"As of today, I have nothing more to teach you."

"Increasing your strength is a process that accumulates over time. In this short period of time, all I can do is to allow you to maximize your existing strength. As for how to improve yourself... I don't think you need to teach me that."

After all, the essence of these girls' power is completely different from Kevin's. Kevin himself doesn't understand the principle of the so-called "fate", so how can he teach them how to go further on this "fate"?

After all, they all have their own elders, so Kevin doesn't need to worry about that. It's not like Xi'er back then... She could only rely on herself to find the way forward, so Kevin left a "mark" for her.

"Wait, eh? The special training is over so soon?!"

San Yueqi had looked forward to the day when training would end more than once, and had already thought about how she should celebrate the end of such busy days - but when this day suddenly came before her, she suddenly realized that she was actually somewhat accustomed to such day-to-day training?

Unlike the others, Bai Lu has always enjoyed this very fulfilling training process. When she heard that her life was about to end, she immediately asked: "Besides, I haven't learned the ice control technique yet..."

"No, you already know how to do it."

Before Bai Lu could finish her words, Kevin interrupted her roughly. Then he waved his hand lightly, and huge ice cones formed around him and rushed towards Bai Lu's head at an extremely fast speed.
