"I don't know if I should end all of this. I don't know how to make a choice.
"You don't know if you should end all of this either. You don't know how to make a choice.
"Since we can't make a choice …
"Then let's leave it to fate."
Jun Xuanji turned around and left. Her figure was like a wisp of smoke.
"Either you kill me, or I kill you.
"You can't bear to kill me, but I can bear to kill you." Jun Xuanji paused and said, "I can't bear to kill you either, but I won't go easy on you. When Wudao Mountain descends, I will no longer be the Jun Xuanji you met in the Ancient Age. So you don't have to go easy on me."
"Do we have to do this?" Gu Qingfeng asked.
"Do we have any other choice?"
"I don't have a choice. You don't have a choice either. If we have a choice, we won't be fated anymore. Everything is predestined. Perhaps this is karma.
"I'm leaving. Goodbye … Wudao Mountain."
Jun Xuanji disappeared.
Just like in the past, he disappeared as suddenly as he appeared, as if he had never appeared.
He closed his eyes and recalled what Jun Xuanji had said.
He might not have understood what Jun Xuanji had said in the past.
But this time, he understood.
Just as Jun Xuanji had said, since we can't make a choice, we'll leave it to fate. Either you die, or I die.
Does it have to be like this?
Jun Xuanji said that we don't have a choice.
But …
Is there really no choice?
Not necessarily.
At least …
Gu Qingfeng had a choice.
He didn't continue thinking about it. He disappeared from the mystic realm. He had to make a trip to the Northwest region. He had to visit Canyang Wuyou.
He felt that he had to meet Canyang Wuyou. He had to find out how all of this had started.
After leaving the mystic realm.
He returned to the outside world.
The sun was high in the sky.
There were no clouds in the sky.
The sky was the same as it was yesterday.
The sun was the same as it was yesterday.
The world was the same as it was yesterday.
The world was the same as it was yesterday. Nothing seemed to have changed.
The Great Northwest was still the Great Northwest of yesterday.
After returning to the northwest, Gu Qingfeng had mixed feelings. He was not sighing with emotion or reminiscing about the past, but his heart was throbbing.
Because the Great Northwest was the beginning of everything.
Five hundred years passed in the blink of an eye. All sorts of memories were like fleeting clouds.
Shaking his head, Zhang Xuan chuckled as he gulped down a jar of wine. Then, he stepped into the Crescent Sun Valley and entered the Crescent Sun Secret Realm.
Inside the secret realm, there was no sky, no earth, no sun, no moon, no Yin and Yang, and no five elements. There was nothing.
There was only darkness.
Endless darkness.
A woman was floating in the darkness.
The woman was wearing a dark red dress. She floated in the darkness of the void as if she was floating in the sea.
She was beautiful, but her beauty was very special. She was like a rose that bloomed in the darkness, mysterious and flirtatious, dignified and noble. This kind of nobility was not the nobility of holy light, but more like a nobility of evil and darkness that no one dared to violate.
She was Canyang Wuyou.
Gu Qingfeng had seen it once.
It was also here.
The only difference was that Canyang Wuyou had been completely lifeless back then. But now, Canyang Wuyou was full of life.
"In the end, you still … still managed to awaken that living drop of Original Sin Blood … What should come … will come in the end … It's destined, everything is destined."
Canyang Wuyou's voice echoed Jun Xuanji's.
Not only that...
Jun Xuanji's voice was filled with confusion.
Canyang Wuyou's voice was filled with confusion and hesitation.
"Are you awakening?"
Gu Qingfeng asked coldly as he stared at Canyang Wuyou, who was floating in the darkness.
"Yes."
"What are you awakening for?"
"To end everything."
"How do I end everything?"
"Either you kill me, or I kill you."
When he heard this, Gu Qingfeng laughed.
He did not know why he wanted to laugh.
"I have no choice. You have no choice either. Everything is destined. Since it is destined, let fate decide."
Gu Qingfeng laughed. "I just met Jun Xuanji. She said the same thing."
"Of course, she's more confused than I am, more hesitant than I am, and more helpless than I am.
"You know her very well."
"No, I don't. I only know my own destiny."
Gu Qingfeng didn't like the word 'fate'. Ever since he was born, he didn't like it. Not only did he dislike it, but he also hated the word 'fate'. It was an innate disgust and a deep-rooted disgust. It was so in the past, and it was even more so now.
"You said that you know destiny better. Then tell me, what is destiny?"
"I said that I only know my own destiny better. So, what is destiny? I'm sorry, but I can't answer that question." Canyang Wuyou changed the topic. "But if you want to know what destiny is, I think there is someone who can answer your question."
"Who?"
"Elder Tianji, Ancient Nameless!"
"The one who is said to be the embodiment of destiny, the messenger of karma, and the omniscient Ancient Nameless?"
"That's her, and only her. I think you should be able to sense her presence. She has already descended to the mortal world. You should be able to meet her soon."
Yes.
Gu Qingfeng could sense the presence of Ancient Nameless.
When he was fighting against the Immortal Dao and Buddha Dao, he had already sensed it. And if his guess was right, the one who used the Great Void Transference was none other than Ancient Wuming. In this entire world, she was probably the only one who had such capabilities.
"He came at the right time. I was just about to look for him. But before that, I have something to ask you."
"I have already said what I should say. Jun Xuanji must have told you what I didn't say..."
Gu Qingfeng asked, "Are you a sinner too?"
"Yes, just like Jun Xuanji, I am a sinner from the Daoless Era. She has fused with the blood of original sin, and so have I. However, we only fused with one drop of pure original sin blood. The drop of original sin blood in your body is not as simple as that. It is the only drop of original sin blood that has mutated. It is also the only drop of original sin blood that has a life of its own."
"Since you know this, why did you bring this drop of original sin blood back?!"
"No! You are mistaken. I did not bring this drop of original sin blood back. "
"Then who did it? Was it Jun Xuanji? "
"It was not Jun Xuanji either. No one brought it back."
"What do you mean by no one brought it back? Was it always here?"
"You are right. This drop of original sin blood has always been here. It has never left, never..."
