"Daxing, what's your plan after all this?"
"What plan?"
"I meant to ask you, are you on the side of fate or the side of sin?"
Faced with Gu Qingfeng's question, Daxing shook his head fiercely and replied, "I'm neither on the side of fate nor on the side of sin."
"So, you're just going to stay neutral and watch the show?"
"What else can I do?"
Daxing said, "I like to gamble sometimes, but there are too many variables in this one. I don't dare to gamble."
"Do you have so little confidence in me?"
"Hehe!" The Mad Monk Daxing said seriously, "Little Gu, let me ask you, are you confident in yourself?"
"Nonsense! Of course I have confidence in myself! "
"Bah! What confidence do you have?! " Mad Monk Daxing looked at Gu Qingfeng with disdain and said, "I've been following you for the past few days and I've finally understood that you've never taken this matter seriously from the beginning. You've been taking things one step at a time, wandering around aimlessly like a headless fly. Why don't you take a look at the situation now?"
"I say, Daxing, you don't mean anything by that, do you? I've been taking one step at a time, but isn't that what you taught me? You said the situation wasn't clear and told me to be careful, to understand the whole situation before making a decision. That's what you said, and that's what I did. Why are you blaming me now? "
"Yes! I admit that I told you to be careful, but you … Aren't you being too careful and cautious? No! You're not being cautious at all. You're f * cking doing whatever you want and letting nature take its course. You don't care about this matter at all. When I'm with you, you're like a spectator. On the contrary, I'm more like the destined Son of Original Sin. "
Daxing seemed to be very disappointed with Gu Qingfeng. He opened a jar of wine and drank a few mouthfuls, then said, "I won't lie to you, kid. I did want to be on your side from the start, and I also hoped that you could become the True Master of Sin and wipe out fate. But all along, you've disappointed me more and more, and I've lost more and more confidence in you."
"Oh my! You're finally willing to tell the truth? "
"What do you mean by finally telling the truth? This old monk has always been honest with you, okay?"
"Honest?"
Hearing this, Gu Qingfeng did not even bother to mock him. He said, "I knew you didn't have any good intentions when you lured me into this ancient black hole. Looks like I was right."
After a short pause, he asked, "Daxing, tell me the truth. Did you set a trap for me when we met in the One-Line-Sky Forbidden Place? You said you were the Prophet Buddha from the Qianji Heavenly Region. You knew that I could guess that the Prophet Buddha was the First Headmaster. You also knew that I would go to the Qianji Heavenly Region to look for him. Then, you asked your disciple to wait for me in the Qianji Heavenly Region. You tricked me into the space of your Zen Sect through the Transmitting Formation. Then, you tricked me into this ancient black hole in the name of protecting the Zen Sect's relics."
"In all honesty! Little Guy Gu, you can drink whatever you want, but you can't say whatever you want. This old monk has always been open and aboveboard. I would never do such a despicable thing … "
"Fine, fine, fine! I don't want to listen to your nonsense. Just tell me one thing, why do you want to erase fate? "
"What do you mean why? Didn't I tell you just now? Fate is not a person, it is a law. Whoever controls fate will control all things in this world. I don't want my fate to be controlled by someone else. "
Gu Qingfeng continued: "Since time immemorial, who wants to control fate in this world? Who can do that? "
"Well … I don't know."
"You really don't know or you don't want to tell me?"
"I really don't know."
Gu Qingfeng didn't give up and kept on asking: "Is it those ancient clansmen?"
"Well …" The monk didn't expect Gu Qingfeng to suddenly bring up the ancient clansmen. He stared at Gu Qingfeng and shook his head. Then, he nodded and sighed: "Maybe, I really don't know."
Despite the monk's repeated denials, Gu Qingfeng more or less had an answer.
Even now, he could still clearly remember a voice appearing in his mind after he fused with the Lone Star Tear. That voice told him that the ancient people had been looking for him all this time. It also warned him to be careful of the ancient people and not to trust them.
"Daxing, I remember you saying … Ancient Nameless is one of the ancient clansmen, right?"
"Little Guy Gu! I didn't say that! Don't talk nonsense! "
"That can't be right. I may have a bad memory, but I still remember some things clearly. Not only did you say that Ancient Nameless is one of the ancient clansmen, but you also said that the mysterious witch queen is one of them."
"This old monk is just suspecting, I didn't say that they are definitely …"
"You have to have a basis for your suspicions, right? You can't be suspecting someone for no reason, can you? "
"This old monk is just randomly guessing. Don't take it seriously."
"What do you think the ancient clansmen are?"
"This … How would this old monk know?"
"Then I'm even more confused. You don't even know what the ancient clansmen are, so why do you suspect that Ancient Nameless and the witch queen are one of them?"
"This old monk … Didn't I say that I'm just randomly guessing?"
Gu Qingfeng stared at Mad Monk Daxing. Mad Monk Daxing felt uncomfortable under Gu Qingfeng's stare. He coughed dryly and said, "Little Gu, can you stop being so suspicious? Don't tell me you don't believe me? Why would this old monk lie to you? "
Gu Qingfeng shrugged. "That's hard to say."
"I say, Brat Gu, aren't you being too heartless? This old monk … "
Before the monk could finish, Gu Qingfeng interrupted him and asked: "Are you one of the ancient clansmen?"
Gu Qing Feng's sudden question really stunned the Mad Monk, causing him to freeze on the spot like a wooden chicken. After a long while, he finally regained his senses and said, "You little brat …"
For some reason, the monk's voice became hoarse and sharp. He coughed and said: "Brat, why … why would you suspect that this old monk is one of the ancient clansmen? F * ck … How could I be one of the ancient clansmen? F * ck … "
Gu Qingfeng patted the monk's shoulder and smiled faintly: "Speak slowly, don't be nervous."
"Nervous? Since when was this old monk nervous? Which eye of yours saw this old monk nervous? This old monk is very calm, okay … "
"Daxing, this old monk knows that you are not one of the ancient clansmen. I was just joking, don't take it to heart. Besides, so what if you are one of the ancient clansmen? This old monk doesn't care."
