"No!" The voice sounded again, "I am just a ray of his consciousness. I only know what he wants me to tell you. I can't do anything else."
"Is this really the case?" I asked unwillingly.
"Yes! After completing this mission, I will also disappear." He responded, with a hint of relief in his tone.
"I have been waiting for too long. I have been trapped in this place. I really can't stand it! From this point of view, he must also be a freedom-loving person! Hahaha"
He laughed suddenly, with a bit of madness in his tone, which was completely different from when I was waiting outside the door.
It’s true as he said, unrestrained and free!
I just don’t know why, but when this voice burst out laughing, what appeared in my mind was that lonely figure standing on the plain, not very majestic, but very strong.
After arranging everything, he stood there alone, facing the inevitable battle alone!
This is probably also for freedom!
"What did he want to tell me? Why did he have to throw me into Dongfang Fort alone? If that's all, you don't need to tell me. I think I probably already know it."
I said angrily that after all these years of inquiring, especially what I finally heard from Yan Jing and what I saw in the cloud wall outside not long ago, I already have a slightly clearer context in my mind, and I have already understood it.
The whole incident was connected in series.
"Oh? Tell me!" He said slightly surprised.
So I organized my thoughts and said slowly: "He took me to escape for some unknown reason, and finally ended up here where he kept his sword."
"I didn't expect that his enemy was so powerful that he actually pursued him here."
"In order to better protect me and not expose the secret of his sword-raising, he arranged everything very carefully."
"Including rescuing Dongfang Yingwo and Yaoyao on the road, making a deal with the Demon Ancestor deep in the Moon Burial Forest, and activating the sword raising pool in advance, all are part of his plan."
"All this was arranged in a hurry. As soon as he made the arrangements, the enemy was already chasing him."
"In the end, he chose to meet the enemy alone here, completely attracting the enemy's attention. But he was defeated and captured!"
"Am I right?" I asked.
"Yes, I basically covered everything that needs to be said!" He praised.
"I think that if he wins the last battle, I'm afraid he won't grow up with me here, right? Instead, he will continue to escape alone and completely divert the enemy's attention!"
I am absolutely certain.
"There is indeed such a possibility." He responded calmly.
"I just don't understand. Since he has arranged everything, why can't he just leave a few words to tell me? Is it cool to always be so mysterious?"
I suddenly yelled, shouting out the biggest doubts that had been suppressed in my heart for these years with the greatest strength in my life. They had been settling in my heart for a long time and almost turned into resentment.
"It's good for young people to roar like this, so that they are worthy of their age!" He laughed, not angry, but said calmly: "But you are right about one thing, it is really cool for him to do this!"
"Why?" I asked puzzled.
"To protect you!" I didn't expect him to answer so thoroughly, and asked at the same time: "Do you remember what the moves his enemy used during the last battle turned into?"
"Isn't it just Zhang Tai Chi?" I said indifferently.
"Do you know the meaning of Tai Chi diagram?"
This time he didn't wait for my answer and continued talking to himself.
"There is a saying in Taoism that one is born with two, two begets three, and three begets all things! Tai Chi divides yin and yang, which represents the two that connects the past and the bottom. It contains everything, and everything can be calculated through it."
"His enemy is very terrifying. He is as powerful as him in cultivation, but even more powerful than him in calculation power."
"Back then, if he had left you anything related to himself, including words, I'm afraid it would have been figured out and you wouldn't have been able to hide it."
"I think this is why he chose not to leave much information in my memory. After all, safety comes first!"
"The reason why he brought you here is because this is a secret place that he spent a lot of effort to decorate. The purpose is to repair the Demon Emperor's sword."
"This matter is top secret. If outsiders know about it, I'm afraid it will cause huge waves in the entire world of immortal cultivation."
"The matter was too big, so he arranged it very carefully. There are multiple secret formations to deceive the sky, which can effectively prevent outsiders from making calculations through various covert means."
"Look, whether it's the sword spike he left for you or the sword spirit he left to grow with you, they are essentially owned by the Demon Emperor and have nothing to do with him."
"This will eliminate any possibility for outsiders to figure out your whereabouts from him."
"Including the fog formed by the last battle, it is actually a part of it. This place may seem ordinary, but it can also prevent others from exploring."
"It's just that the layout was too natural back then, and there are countless battlefield ruins in the outside world caused by master battles, each with its own characteristics, so it never aroused excessive curiosity from outsiders."
"And as a consciousness of me, this place was arranged with the help of his strongest move and heavily hidden. Do you still blame him for not leaving too much information to you?"
"It's not that I don't do it, I really can't do it. It's not that I don't care about you, it's that I care too much!"
"This heart is everywhere like the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, but it can't leave for a moment. It's just that you are already familiar with it, but you can't feel it."
"Then why did he run away? Who were the people who were chasing him? Where did he come from? Where is my mother?" I asked in one breath.
After listening to what he said just now, I already know too many questions that have confused me for a long time, and the resentment in my heart has been relieved a lot. However, there are also more key questions that remain unanswered. Fortunately, I asked them out in one go.
"I don't know, I can't answer these questions for you," he said.
Although I already had a premonition of his answer in my heart, I didn't expect that when this moment came, I still felt a strong sense of loss. He really didn't know.
"Then what is his relationship with the Demon King? Why does he want to repair the Blood-devouring Madness?" I continued to ask.
"I don't know." He responded.
"Why do you say that if the outside world knew about his repair of the Demon Emperor's sword, it would cause huge waves?"
"Because back then, the Demon Emperor led an army of demons to invade the human world, bringing tragedy to the lives of all living beings! Although the Demon Emperor was eventually sealed, it also became a taboo." (To be continued)
