The woman shook her head. "That may not be the case. We just don't kill people who don't deserve to die. The best way to solve a problem is to solve the person who created the problem. That should be right, right?"
Xu Qingyan felt a slight headache.
He couldn't help but ask the other party, "Does the Zhao Tang Kingdom's affairs have anything to do with you?"
The woman shook her head. "I know what you're thinking, but it really has nothing to do with us. The plague has nothing to do with it either."
"And the four witches?"
Xu Qingyan frowned.
The woman raised her pretty eyebrows slightly, her long chestnut hair lazily falling on her shoulders. Although it was covered by her black robe, it could not hide her tall and beautiful figure.
Especially the temperament of an intellectual lady... the demeanor that is like a real goddess, the unique style that is hard to describe.
"You just believed what I said so easily?"
Xu Qingyan smiled and said, "I will definitely say I believe you in person. After all, I am still in the illusion you gave me. As for how I will think about it afterwards, that is my business."
The woman also smiled, as if she had no airs at all, and her expression was free and easy.
"Well... it's not bad to think so. It's just that everyone thinks they are sober, but they don't know that in the larger world, you may be the only one who is intoxicated. To answer your question, it's better to talk to Wu Xijia than to vent your anger, but... it's not all Wu Xijia."
"Who else?"
Xu Qingyan frowned.
The woman looked at Xu Qingyan, and there seemed to be light rippling gently in her clear eyes, like a lake filled with moonlight.
"Once you have dealt with this matter, you will know."
"Do you really think I can handle it to the end? You should know that my power is also very small. The most life-saving thing to do should be to return to my own sect, report the situation here truthfully, and then wait for more capable people to handle it."
The woman who claimed to be a priest said softly.
"If that's the case, then you're not the one we're waiting for. Then everything that follows has nothing to do with you. Don't expect me to persuade you. It's not necessary. The true destiny is that no matter what you choose, no matter if there are hints or not, everyone will go to where they should go. No difference at all."
Xu Qingyan sighed.
"Another riddle... Can the riddle man die?... Oh, by the way, what should I do next?"
The woman didn't seem to feel offended. She glanced at Xu Qingyan's messy collar, and a hint of awkwardness flashed across her eyes.
Then I couldn't help but reach out my hand.
He straightened Xu Qingyan's collar, very seriously and meticulously.
She didn't even bother to answer until she was satisfied with the arrangement, then she nodded slightly.
Xu Qingyan looked at this scene, feeling puzzled.
Is this person...nosy or does he have obsessive compulsive disorder?
Is this the start?
After the woman had done this, she seemed to remember something, and a faint, unnatural blush appeared on her cheeks.
"Excuse me."
Xu Qingyan shook his head.
"I am lucky to be served by a woman like you. There is no need to apologize. If you apologize, can you please tell me your name?"
The woman thought about it.
"You can call me Priest Su."
"The long-cherished wish?"
"Um."
It's really weird.
Xu Qingyan frowned, "So what's next?"
The woman said softly, "You will know what to do next after you leave here."
"I don't even know how to leave!"
"I'll let you leave, you're so anxious."
The woman's slightly complaining words made Xu Qingyan stunned. Damn.
What's that tone? Like acting like a spoiled child?
Big sister, shouldn't you be more classy? At least you should appear cooler than that woman Song Xiyan, right?
You make yourself look like a person without quality.
Xu Qingyan sighed.
"Okay, then I'll trouble Priest Su."
Su remembered something.
"Oh, there's one more thing you might want to deal with first."
"What?"
“You’ll know when you go there.”
"Riddles again!!"
Su - the riddle man - the barefoot lover - the obsessive compulsive patient - the priest said to Xu Qingyan very calmly.
"So are you going?"
"...Do I have any choice but to go?"
"Okay, then remember what I said."
As she said this, she stretched out her hand and pointed with two fingers.
Then.
"Try your best to become one of the millions."
“Boom.”
She poked her finger into the center of her forehead.
At this moment, Xu Qingyan did not feel an epiphany, but a strange feeling.
It's just like...
Many years ago, an arrow pierced his forehead.
and many more!
arrow?!
An arrow piercing yourself?!
When Xu Qingyan opened his eyes wide in astonishment and looked at the woman in front of him, wanting to say something, wanting to reach out and grab something.
A huge panic spread throughout my body at that moment.
The woman's figure is blurred.
Everything before my eyes suddenly changed.
It was the flying of flames and the sound of fighting that filled the mountains and plains.
It was Pei Yu in front of him...whose hair was almost disheveled and whose face was full of confusion.
The moment when space and time almost tore apart.
The moment when the scene in front of me suddenly changed.
Xu Qingyan seemed to feel an extremely familiar, even panic-inducing feeling.
Because he remembered it deeply.
In that previous life, at the last moment, I pierced myself, right between my eyebrows, bringing everything to an end, and also bringing everything to a new beginning.
It was that arrow.
And the finger of the woman who called herself the priest Su that poked him between the eyebrows... was definitely more than just a similar touch.
It's exactly the same.
Although Xu Qingyan couldn't remember who the other person was, and whether he had really met her in his past life.
That memory seemed to be lost out of thin air.
But he clearly remembered this feeling, how could anyone forget such a feeling.
It's as if my soul has been pierced and I've instantly fallen into an endless darkness...
Could it be...
A terrifying thought flashed through Xu Qingyan's mind, a possibility that he couldn't believe or even accept.
Could this priest Su be the woman who killed me in my previous life?
But... who is it?
The memory I lost...is it related to this incident?
And what is everything now? What is her purpose in appearing on her own initiative and creating an illusion not only for herself but also for Pei Yu?
It happened to be at a time like this.
What do those words, which are almost like a riddle, represent?
What does it mean to know when the time comes?
Not sure, but the current situation...
Looking at the embarrassed Pei Yu in front of him, Xu Qingyan frowned.
Her eyes were dull, as if she had lost all faith, staring blankly at the flames of war ahead.
"I ran away again..."
"I ran away again..."
Xu Qingyan lowered his head slightly and looked at the woman in front of him.
"Pei Yu?"
Hearing the boy's voice, Pei Yu seemed to realize that there was someone in front of him.
She raised her head and looked at Xu Qingyan, and then her eyes burst into intense anger.
"It's you! It's you! It's you!!! I'm going to kill you!!"
After saying that, he actually stood up and rushed towards Xu Qingyan.
Xu Qingyan frowned.
“Pah.”
He stretched out his hand and easily grasped the other's wrist.
A little weaker than I thought.
what happened?
Pei Yu noticed something was slightly wrong, but he was still angry.
"Why did you do this to me, why did you kill my father and mother, why did you do this, why did you let me..."
"Pei Yu, are you crazy?"
Xu Qingyan said coldly.
This sentence made Pei Yu's eyes confused for a moment.
She looked at the boy blankly, and Xu Qingyan grabbed his wrist tightly.
"Take another look at who I am?"
Pei Yu's eyes instantly turned furious again.
"Xu Qingyan...!"
