Chapter 793: Confucianism’s Sage Words, Xu Wanqing’s Reasoning
Without waiting for Yuchi Chunlei's answer, Xu Wanqing took the lead in taking action. She kept pinching the magic formula in her hands, and the large formation in the house opened in an instant. Then she took out several talismans with breath-suppressing and isolation effects and triggered them one by one. After that, she took out several pills from her arms and poured them into her mouth frantically.
The pill was very effective. The moment Xu Wanqing took it, the aura that she had habitually suppressed disappeared in an instant, as if she had become dead.
All of this was completed in almost an instant, leaving Yuchi Chunlei beside him stunned:
"Master...Xiaoqing..."
"You...what are you doing?"
She had to admit that Xu Wanqing's methods were indeed very effective. If she hadn't been standing right in front of her, and she had only used her spiritual sense to investigate, she wouldn't even have been able to sense Xu Wanqing in front of her.
Just a pity.
Xu Wanqing ignored Yuchi Chunlei's questioning and just murmured to herself:
"The sacred words of Confucianism, it's actually the sacred words of Confucianism!"
"Could it be that person?"
"With his strength, why would he resort to such means, and why would he do such a thing?"
"If it's not him, who else could it be?"
"But if it's him, what does he want to do? Why is he doing this? Who is he targeting? Is he going to deal with Baiyulou? Why is he involving us?"
"..."
At this moment, Xu Wanqing was extremely nervous. Cold sweat oozed from her forehead and her body was shaking uncontrollably.
She vaguely guessed something.
But she didn't dare to admit the result of this guess. She was clearly in the formation and restrictions at the moment, but she had a feeling that she was being spied on and had no secrets.
This feeling is terrible.
It was as if a huge net was covering her.
"You said that the man in black asked you to wait for Gu Xiu. Did he tell you where you should go after waiting for Gu Xiu?" Xu Wanqing suddenly asked.
Yuchi Chunlei looked bewildered and shook her head:
"No, he asked me to wait for you, and said that if I couldn't wait for you, I would be finished."
"Fortunately, I waited for you, Junior Brother."
"Junior brother, you don't know how hard I waited for you. I even thought I was going to die there..."
These words made Xu Wanqing break out in a cold sweat, and she emphasized again: "I said, I am not Gu Xiu, not your junior brother. You can call me Xiaoqing, but don't call me junior brother anymore!"
"Okay, okay, I'll just call you Xiaoqing." Yuchi Chunlei didn't understand why her junior brother still said that, but she nodded and agreed to his wishes.
Xu Wanqing felt helpless.
She knew that Yuchi Chunlei had misunderstood, but it was really hard to explain. She simply didn't emphasize anything further and just continued to speculate in her mind:
"The man in black robes set up a grand scheme, and this scheme includes the fool Yuchi Chunlei, and it should even include me..."
"Then, is the ancient book about the Three Yuan Sea of Sin that I obtained earlier also part of the black-robed man's plan?"
"If he really used the ancient tome of the Three Realms Sea of Sin to lure me in, then that means he wants Yuchi Chunlei and I to go to the Canglong Secret Realm. He even wants us to successfully open the subsequent secret realms in the Canglong Secret Realm until the entire Three Realms Sea of Sin is reborn. Is this what that mysterious person wants to see?"
"As for today's events..."
Xu Wanqing glanced at Yuchi Chunlei, who was still bewildered.
"Because that person called Gu Ping'an is asking for an extra magic weapon, and the mysterious person also knows this, so he helped Yuchi Chunlei at the critical moment. In fact, he hopes that we can get the qualification to enter and get the Azure Dragon Key?"
"If this person is really that person..."
"What is his purpose?"
"What is he planning?"
At this moment, Xu Wanqing felt that her mind was unusually clear. In fact, Yuchi Chunlei had already told her about the mysterious man in black robe, but Xu Wanqing had not cared about it before, because all her thoughts were on the Three Realms Sea of Sin. But this time, when she discovered that there was an existence beyond imagination and used Confucian methods to help Yuchi Chunlei, Xu Wanqing finally connected all this together.
Myself and Yuchi Chunlei.
They all became pawns of that mysterious man!
The other party has already spread out a large net and set up the chessboard, and may even be luring them step by step in the direction they want.
The plan is very big!
It's a pity that she couldn't figure out what the other party was going to do. The Three Realms Sea of Sin was extremely special. According to ancient books, any slight change could have prevented the Three Realms Sea from being born. But the other party could calculate it to this extent, which meant that at least the other party knew the Three Realms Sea of Sin very well and could have taken action on his own. Why did he still do this?
and……
"Why must it be us?" Xu Wanqing thought of a question that made her even more alert:
"Even though Yuchi Chunlei and I both have some skills and are not weak, compared to Zhongzhou, which is full of talented people, our skills are just so-so. Why do we have to do this?"
"Could it be that……"
"cause and effect!"
Suddenly, Xu Wanqing suddenly thought of a key point, or rather, she thought of something about cause and effect that Mi Xinghe had mentioned during his lecture before.
Cause and effect are intertwined!
Her and Yuchi Chunlei's abilities are not particularly outstanding in Zhongzhou. If they have to be chosen, it is very likely that the other party does not value their abilities or their cultivation, but values the cause and effect between them. They use the law of cause and effect to entangle those who have a deep cause and effect with them!
Thus, the goal is achieved!
"We are all from Qingxuan. Since they want to use karma to entangle us, then the other party's target must be someone from Qingxuan, someone with whom Yuchi Chunlei and I have a very deep karma."
"Who could that be?"
"Guan Xuelan?"
"Guan Xuelan is our master. The cause and effect itself is extremely profound. Moreover, she is the Supreme Being and has strength. She has many treasures and even more mysterious methods. It is very likely that the other party is using us to guide Guan Xuelan!"
"Or Gu Xiu?"
"Everyone knows that he is a person with great fortune. Maybe his strength is average, but the fortune on him is so great that even immortals like Jiang Xun care about him. This possibility is also very high!"
"Or……"
"Is it Jiang Xun?"
After thinking for a while, Xu Wanqing's pupils suddenly contracted:
"Yes! The most likely person is still Jiang Xun!"
"Jiang Xun is an immortal. Whether it's strength, vision, or even his methods and mentality, they are beyond imagination. The Three Yuans Sea of Sin itself involves the power of immortals and gods. The other party is using us to calculate Jiang Xun. They want to use our power of cause and effect to lure Jiang Xun out, and then use Jiang Xun's immortal methods and identity to achieve their goals!"
It is worth mentioning that until now Xu Wanqing did not know the news that Jiang Xun was dead, even though many people already knew the news, and even the Beiming had spread it, and even Yuchi Chunlei understood it.
But she really didn't know.
She had Taixu wax on her body and lived a secluded life. She basically didn't communicate with others much and knew nothing about these things. As for Yuchi Chunlei, she was also the butcher who killed Jiang Xun, but she knew that Jiang Xun and Gu Xiu were not on good terms. She thought that her junior brother must know that Jiang Xun was dead, so naturally he would not tell Xu Wanqing these things. Yuchi Chunlei even never mentioned Jiang Xun's name.
Of course, there is one most important reason.
"Jiang Xun is an immortal. When he wanted to refine me into a pill, I could clearly feel that he had used some kind of method on me. As long as he wanted, he should be able to let me die in his place at any time. I have never encountered Jiang Xun triggering any of his methods on me, which means that Jiang Xun is still alive and well!"
"It's impossible that he's truly dead after his defeat at Qingxuan. He must be secretly sharpening his blade, ready to strike back at any moment!"
"Does that mean..."
"Is this chess game between that person and Jiang Xun?"
When Xu Wanqing thought of this, she felt a chill run down her spine.
The most terrifying thing in the world is not being kept in the dark and knowing nothing, but being able to clearly feel that there is a problem, or even having discovered part of the problem.
But I am still powerless.
This game of chess has exceeded her understanding. She clearly knows that she has become a chess piece in the opponent's hands, but she is completely unable to resist. She doesn't even know what her next move should be.
"Xiaoqing...?"
At this moment, Yuchi Chunlei's voice interrupted Xu Wanqing's thoughts. When she looked up, she saw that the other party was looking at her cautiously, a bit like a child who had done something wrong.
Seeing her like this, Yuchi Chunlei felt inexplicably angry.
But in the end...
"I'm fine." Xu Wanqing replied.
Although she felt a little resentful towards this idiot for dragging her into this chess game, she actually understood that as a chess piece, Yuchi Chunlei was as innocent as herself and could not be blamed on her. Moreover, with the existence of Taixu Paraffin, even if she was extremely angry, she could only extinguish it.
"That's great, I'm glad you're okay. You scared me just now." Yuchi Chunlei breathed a sigh of relief and then asked:
"What should we do next?"
This problem also gave Xu Wanqing a headache.
She had originally intended to simply follow what she found in the ancient book to find the Three Realms Sea of Sin, but she had never imagined that there would be so many twists and turns. Now faced with further questioning, she was a little unsure of how to make a decision.
Seeing that she didn't speak, Yuchi Chunlei could only change the subject:
"You just said that the people who secretly helped me were from the academy. Then why did you say that the people from the academy helped me steal things?"
"And why would they do that?"
"Are they planning to use us to work for their academy for free, or to do something that is inconvenient for them? Could these people be like Mo Ran, who talks about morality but is actually selfish?"
Xu Wanqing didn't dare to respond.
However, Yuchi Chunlei's words made Xu Wanqing suddenly remember a question.
Since I guessed that this was a game of chess between that person in the academy and Jiang Xun, then whose chess piece am I now?
Obviously, the identity of the man in black is not known for the time being, but the person who can use the Confucian sacred words must be the almighty master.
Since the other party is helping at this time, it means...
I am the Master's chess piece!
At this moment, Xu Wanqing felt that her whole body was clear. Facing Yuchi Chunlei's question, she immediately made a decision:
"The plan continues."
"Since the Master wants to give you the things from the White Jade Tower, then you should give them to Gu Ping'an. We must cooperate with Gu Ping'an no matter what!"
