“So for the sake of this so-called dao struggle, is it worth it to shed blood like a river and have corpses litter the fields?”
“For the cultivators in your world who can be killed by weapons, they are at least the level of the head of a sect or even the ancestor. As long as they can prolong their lives, why would they care about these things?”
Fairy Lingyue said lightly.
Xu Taiping once again felt the coldness and ruthlessness of the cultivation world.
However, after being reminded by Fairy Lingyue, he indeed smelled a hint of conspiracy in the struggle between Baishu Kingdom and Wujiu Kingdom.
“The solution to the inevitable death situation of the Sixth Princess may lie in the two words ‘Dao Struggle’, and the key to the ‘Dao Struggle’ lies in the two points of unlocking the seal and breaking the seal. But which one of the Sixth Princess and the emperor of Wujiu Kingdom is the one who unlocks the seal and which one is the one who breaks the seal?”
Xu Taiping muttered to himself while seriously thinking.
“Taiping, do you still want to break the game and save the Sixth Princess?”
Fairy Lingyue suddenly asked Xu Taiping with a smile.
“She can die anywhere, but she must not die in the imperial palace of Wujiu Kingdom.”
Xu Taiping said with firm eyes.
This training mission was finally completed to the last step. Even if he knew it was a dead end, he didn’t want to give up all his previous efforts like this.
When Fairy Lingyue heard this, she giggled.
“But I advise you to be prepared for the worst, because unless we can know which one of the imperial concubine, the Sixth Princess and the emperor of Wujiu Kingdom is the celestial being, and what their respective Dao seals are, otherwise this dead end has no solution at all.”
She then reminded Xu Taiping with a serious expression on her face.
Upon hearing this, Xu Taiping couldn’t help but feel a bit disheartened.
Because what Fairy Lingyue said was right. The information he knew was really too little, and it was extremely difficult to break the situation.
“Let’s follow the will of heaven and do our best. We can’t give up so easily.”
Xu Taiping leaned back on the chair.
Even if the experience fails, it fails. But giving up like this is not his style.
“Bang, bang, bang…”
Just then, the door of the inn room was suddenly knocked on.
“Who is it?”
he asked vigilantly.
“Nuquanzhuang, Fan Ye.”
The person outside the door said coldly.
“Fan Ye?”
Xu Taiping was a bit surprised.
Because this Fan Ye was none other than the grandson of the owner of Nuquanzhuang.
“My great-grandfather left a letter for you.”
Fan Ye outside the door said.
After thinking for a while, Xu Taiping finally went forward and opened the door.
“My great-grandfather asked me to give this letter to you.”
As soon as the door was opened, Fan Ye directly handed a letter to Xu Taiping.
“A letter left for me by your great-grandfather?”
Xu Taiping took the letter with some confusion.
I also found it when I was dying up his relics. It specifically instructed me that if you could defeat him uprightly with your boxing skills and make him lose convinced, then let me hand this letter to you.”
Fan Ye nodded indifferently.
“The battle between my great-grandfather and you today is the most enjoyable one among the competitions I have watched. Especially that last punch, I never thought that the intention of my great-grandfather’s fist could be so peaceful. So I think, in this battle with you, he should have lost convinced.”
After saying this as if talking to himself, Fan Ye turned around and left without looking back.
Looking at the back of Fan Ye leaving and the letter in his hand, his heart was filled with mixed feelings.
“Take a look at this letter. Maybe you can find some clues. After all, that Fan Qi must have known about the imperial concubine’s plan long ago.”
The voice of Fairy Lingyue rang in Xu Taiping’s ear.
“Hmm.”
Xu Taiping nodded and then took the letter back to the room.
……
After a stick of incense.
Xu Taiping, who had carefully read the letter, slowly raised his head.
He looked at Fairy Lingyue beside him and then said with a sigh:
“As we guessed, this Fan Qi is indeed also a chess piece laid out by that imperial concubine. Whether it is surrendering, massacring the city, or even setting up this Life and Death Arena here, it is all the imperial concubine’s plan.”
“However, this chess piece ultimately left a trick up its sleeve.”
Fairy Lingyue smiled and pointed to the last paragraph of that letter——
“More than ten years later, the old man finally discovered that I was deceived by her. All that she did was not for the common people of the Baishu Kingdom at all, but for that dao struggle.”
“She is the immortal on that mountain, and the emperor of the Wujiu Kingdom is also an immortal exiled from the mountain. She wants to use the Sixth Prince as a sword to destroy the dao seal of the emperor of the Wujiu Kingdom, making him unable to return to the mountain for all eternity.”
“Although I don’t know what enmity she has with the emperor of the Wujiu Kingdom, I accidentally saw a secret letter from her. This secret letter, which she kept close to her body, is written in a strange script, and she once said to this secret letter, ‘Your dao seal will never be untied in this lifetime’. So I guess it may be related to the dao seal in the legend, so I copied down the words on it.”
“If you, little friend, can recognize the words above, perhaps you can break the game with this.”
“She was the love of my life, but she also ruined my life. I can’t hate her, but the Sixth Prince is an innocent and poor person. If you can help, little friend, please do so. If not, then please burn this letter and pretend that none of this ever happened.”
After reading this passage seriously again, Xu Taiping was speechless for a long time.
“I’m becoming more and more curious about this imperial concubine.”
At this time, Fairy Lingyue raised her mouth.
Whether it’s a close relative or a loved one, to her they are all pawns in her hands. Such a person can’t be an unknown nobody. Maybe we’ll encounter her in the future.”
She said with a hint of a desire to win in her eyes.
“It’s better not to encounter her.”
Xu Taiping was a bit at a Fairy Lingyue’s sudden desire to win.
“Do you recognize the words on this piece of paper, Sister Lingyue?”
He then took out another piece of letter paper with a somewhat special texture from the envelope.
According to what was said in Fan Qi’s letter, the content on this piece of paper is very likely to be related to the Dao Seal.
