Upon hearing this, the Fairy Lingyue beside him suddenly had a cold look in her eyes, and at the same time, she also communicates to Xu Taiping in her heart:
“Taiping, your name will appear in this last Sword Query. This Su Chan should have put in a lot of effort.”
“This Sword Query is clearly a killing game set up by Su Chan for you.”
“I even suspect that murdering Elder Chu of the Nine Mansions was originally a part of this plan.”
“The purpose is to divert your attention so that he has time to replace all the cultivators in the same group as you.”
Xu Taiping replied calmly in his heart:
“If that’s really the case.”
Xu Taiping looked at Su Chan, and continued in his heart:
“What kind of hatred, or reason, could make a strong Demon Emperor like him spend such a great price to set up this deadly game for me?”
Although there have been many conflicts, both openly and secretly, between Xu Taiping and Su Chan since the experience in the Jade Gourd Secret Realm.
Even so, Xu Taiping still doesn’t quite understand why Su Chan has such a strong hatred for him.
Just like at this moment.
Just to see him die on the Asking Sword Platform, she didn’t hesitate to spend such a huge price to replace all the cultivators in that Asking Sword, except for him, with Demon Cultivators.
Xu Taiping stared deeply into Su Chan’s eyes for a moment.
Facing Xu Taiping’s gaze, Su Chan’s eyes remained as calm as ever, as if what she just said was not “kill you” but “love you”.
“Can I ask you a few questions?”
After a slight silence for a few breaths, Xu Taiping finally spoke.
Su Chan nodded calmly and said:
“Yes.”
So Xu Taiping asked:
“Demon Cultivators never need a reason to kill people, but this Asking Sword you prepared for me this time is obviously not the case.”
Su Chan raised her head and carefully stared at Xu Taiping for a moment, and then said, “Xu Taiping, haven’t you noticed yet?”
Xu Taiping asked in confusion:
“Notice what?”
Su Chan replied:
“Since you first sounded your sword on Jade Gourd Peak, it was doomed to be either you or me.”
Su Chan continued:
“Our Dao both originated from Qingxuan and are both from the line of Lü Daoxuan. Even if I have fallen into Magic Path , I cannot change this.”
“To wipe away this smear of dirt on my Great Dao.”
“I spent a long time, slowly severing the karma related to Qingxuan Sect and Lü Daoxuan bit by bit.”
“Even, including some places you can’t see.”
Hearing this, Xu Taiping’s heart trembled.
He thought to himself, could the place that Su Chan said we couldn’t see be the River of Time?
At this time, only to hear Su Chan continue to say indifferently:
“In the Jade Gourd Secret Realm back then, the flying sword left in the Blood Pool was originally the last karma between me and Qingxuan Sect.”
“If I break it, there will be no more dirt on my Great Dao.”
When saying this, Su Chan suddenly paused for a moment, and then looked at Xu Taiping with sharp eyes and a cold tone:
“But you just happened to sound your sword on Jade Gourd Peak at this time.”
“Your sounding of the sword this time divided the Dao that originated from Qingxuan Lü Daoxuan into two.”
“As long as your Dao is not destroyed, my Dao will not be cut off.”
“For others, this may be a good thing, but for me, Su Chan.”
“It’s not!”
“Not to mention that I don’t want to follow Lu Daoxuan’s path in the first place. Even if I were to, I would take my own unique path.”
“How could there be the shadow of others on my path?”
“Therefore, you must die.”
After hearing Su Chan’s answer, Xu Taiping was shocked and at a loss for words for a moment.
Because what Su Chan said had somewhat exceeded his understanding of the path of cultivation.
Just when Xu Taiping was a little at a loss, he suddenly felt a heavy weight on his shoulder.
Turning his head to look.
It was Fairy Lingyue, who put her hand on his shoulder.
Fairy Lingyue didn’t look at Xu Taiping. Instead, with a look of disdain in her eyes, she looked at Su Chan and said to Xu Taiping without looking back:
“Taiping, don’t listen to his high-sounding words. What wiping away the dirt of the Great Dao, what my own unique path, are all just some words to deceive others and oneself.”
Upon hearing this, Su Chan’s eyes lit up.
However, he didn’t refute Fairy Lingyue’s words. Instead, he smiled and waited for Fairy Lingyue’s next words.
But Fairy Lingyue didn’t continue. Instead, she turned to look at Xu Taiping and asked him:
“Taiping, do you remember the words that sister said to you when you first tried to cultivate?”
Upon hearing this, Xu Taiping was first stunned, and then his heart trembled.
In an instant, the fog in his eyes disappeared, and his pupils were clear.
Immediately, Xu Taiping looked at Su Chan’s gaze again and then asked:
“Su Chan, do you still remember why you cultivate?”
Upon hearing this, the smile on Su Chan’s face suddenly disappeared, and a murderous intent suddenly enveloped the room.
Facing Su Chan’s murderous intent, Xu Taiping continued with an unperturbed expression:
“The consequences of forgetting one’s original heart in the cultivation of the Great Dao, you should be clearer than me.”
“So all that you have done and all the plans you have made for me today are not as you said, to erase the impurity of your Great Dao and to embark on your path of only me.”
“But to erase your original heart.”
“Because you saw your original heart in the Qingxuan Sect’s mountain gate, because you saw your original heart in me.”
When saying this, Xu Taiping paused for a moment, looked at Su Chan’s murderous gaze without showing any weakness, and then asked again extremely seriously:
“Su Chan, do you still remember your original heart of seeking the Dao?”
As soon as Xu Taiping’s voice fell, only a “boom” was heard, and an extremely violent fluctuation of breath suddenly spread out centered on Su Chan’s shadow.
However, as the countless “immune to all evils” handwriting in the room lit up together blocking this breath in front of Xu Taiping.
But just as the two sides were at a tense standoff, Su Chan suddenly withdrew all of his killing intent.
Subsequently, as if nothing had happened, he looked at Xu Taiping with a calm face like water and said:
Little junior brother, don’t think that just by saying ‘don’t forget your original intention’, you can restrain me. After all, under this heaven, except for myself, who else knows my original intention?
He paused, looked at Fairy Lingyue again, and continued:
Moreover, how can you determine that I have lost my original intention?
These words made both Xu Taiping and Fairy Lingyue fall into silence.
However, Fairy Lingyue immediately transmitted a voice to Xu Taiping and said:
Leaving aside other things, today we at least know that Su Chan’s change is most likely related to his original intention of seeking the Tao.
As long as we investigate based on this, we will definitely be able to find the flaw in his Taoist heart.
Xu Taiping responded in his heart and said:
Well, that’s right. Since Su Chan cares so much about others knowing his original intention of seeking the Tao, it means that we should have found his lifeline.
Just at this time, I only heard Su Chan smile again and say:
Little junior brother, is there anything else you want to ask?
