The only weapon that could kill Tai Ren was now in Tang Xiao's hands, and he pointed the dagger directly at his daughter's chest!
"Don't question my determination, daughter." Tang Xiao said through gritted teeth, "I can tell you that I live for the hundreds of billions of people in the Principality of Dawn! For them, I am willing to sacrifice everything! And you? Daughter, you survive
What’s the meaning of?”
"You can't understand." Her daughter's eyes became sharp. She stared at Tang Xiao, as if she might take action at any time.
"Indeed, I can't understand the meaning of your existence, but you can't understand mine either!" Tang Xiao said word for word, "But, in order to protect this, I would rather give my life! And this is my answer!
"
"My son has gone crazy, and you want to go crazy too?" the daughter said sternly.
"Before you accuse me of being crazy, you should think about what you have done!" Tang Xiao said loudly.
"This is for the balance of the Force!" The daughter also raised her voice.
"If the balance of the Force means sacrificing hundreds of billions of innocent civilians, then what is the difference between this balance and the dark side!" Tang Xiao yelled almost as if to vent his anger.
"You are crazy!" the daughter shouted loudly.
"Then kill me!!" Tang Xiao roared.
The daughter gritted her teeth and prepared to take action. She was about to smash Tang Xiao from the sky, but suddenly, she found something in her hand? Sharp, cold...
It's actually the Mortis dagger!
Tang Xiao actually put the Mortis dagger into her hand?!
"You...?" The daughter's beautiful eyes widened, and she looked at Tang Xiao dumbfounded. For a moment, she didn't know what to say.
However, Tang Xiao just lowered his head and let out a long sigh, "My son asked me to get this dagger, and then asked me to kill my father while he was performing the ceremony."
He took a deep breath, shook his head and said: "He told me that this ceremony requires me to sit in front of 'Father', and then he will put his hand on my forehead. At this time, 'Father' and I will
He will be very close, and he will be immersed in the long river of time and will not notice my movements."
The daughter was silent. She looked down at the dagger in her hand and said slowly: "It seems that he has indeed told you everything."
Her voice gradually became sad, "Did he really intend to kill 'father'? He actually...he actually...you, why did you give the dagger to me? Don't you hate me so much?"
"I do hate you, very much." Tang Xiao said, "But compared to the dark side, I believe in the light more."
The daughter was a little moved, and she asked doubtfully: "But you are a Sith..."
"You don't know my past, so you naturally don't know what the dark side means to me." Tang Xiao's eyes were deep and he looked up into the distance, "...it means survival."
"You..." The daughter no longer knew what to say. This was the first time in hundreds of thousands of years that she was so curious about a person.
Countless people have appeared in front of her, all kinds of people. Some are heroic and powerful, some are weird and secretive, some are evil and wretched... But without exception, those people can see through their past and future at a glance.
.
Those people are transparent to someone like my daughter.
But she couldn't see through Tang Xiao's past and future. There was only a fog in front of her eyes. Moreover, Tang Xiao's behavior was completely beyond her imagination almost every time, which made her very curious about what kind of person Tang Xiao was.
.
He doesn't seem to be purely dark side, he seems to be more complex.
"My son is serious this time. I can't do anything about his power, so I gave the dagger to you." Tang Xiao said, "I hope you can give me a chance, but you refused. But... I
I still hope I can give you a chance to stop my son."
The daughter stared at the dagger in her hand and said, "I will tell my father about this."
However, Tang Xiao smiled coldly and said: "Tell 'Father'? Then I'll tell you what will happen. 'Father' will confiscate the dagger and hold it in his hand. And after finding out that I betrayed him, my son will
He will kill me without hesitation, but 'Father' will not stop me. Because all he cares about is the broken balance of the Force... Then he will put the Mortis dagger back on the altar and warn you not to fight each other.
And then...what has happened countless times over hundreds of thousands of years will happen again."
The daughter didn't say anything, she knew that Tang Xiao was right.
"But the 'father' is weakening. He is no longer able to stop his son. The Mortis dagger in his hand has no effect at all. When the son sees what has happened, he will not hide his purpose. He will take the dagger back and kill him.
'Father' will also kill you. When Mortis collapses, he will escape from here." Tang Xiao said lightly, "Nothing has changed."
The daughter still didn't speak, but her hand holding the dagger trembled slightly and her eyes flickered.
Tang Xiao continued: "You are the only one who can stop my son. But you are no match for my son, so you need this dagger. You don't need to kill him, you just need to hurt him."
"Why are you doing this?" the daughter asked again.
"Having fallen into darkness, I know better than anyone else that the dark side will only lead to death and destruction. Would I expect my son to save the people of the Dawn Principality? Of course not. From the beginning, he only regarded me as someone who could be used at any time.
It's just an abandoned tool, but I can't die here. Hundreds of billions of people in the Dawn Principality are still waiting for me to save them! The only thing that can save us is light." Tang Xiao said seriously.
The daughter thought about it again, hung the dagger on her waist, raised her hand and waved it lightly, and the dagger disappeared without a trace. It was almost the same method as her son.
She said seriously: "I will not use the Mortis dagger against my son."
"This is your choice." Tang Xiao seemed to be expecting it, and was not very excited, "I am sandwiched between you, without the power to resist, just like the hundreds of billions of people in the Principality of Dawn, because of your words
Just..."
"Stop talking about those people!" The daughter finally got impatient with Tang Xiao talking about hundreds of billions of people and interrupted him.
Tang Xiao smiled, stretched out his hand in a begging gesture, "Then, at least you should save my life, right?"
"Save you?" The daughter didn't know what Tang Xiao wanted to say.
"My son will definitely kill me immediately when he sees that I don't have a dagger in my hand." Tang Xiao said, "So, at least you should give me a fake dagger so that I can hide it from my son."
"If I give you a fake dagger, your son won't kill you?" The daughter still didn't quite understand.
"My son will not think that I can reach an agreement with you after seeing my behavior towards you before. Therefore, if you give me a dagger that can hide it from him, he will not worry too much. As for the beginning of the ceremony,
After that, I was right next to 'Father'. If my son really wanted to kill me, at least I could hide behind 'Father'." Tang Xiao said.
The daughter thought for a moment, lowered her height, picked a branch from a tree and handed it to Tang Xiao.
The branch immediately transformed into the shape of Mortis's dagger. (End of Chapter)
