Hearing this..,
Barron considered Liu Xiaojiang's attitude towards the Eight Strange Skills and could not help but slowly frown, he said,
"Liu, you spent so much effort just now. Could it be that you want me to cooperate … Are you trying to make me betray my savior?"
"Because of some reasons..." Liu Xiaojiang knew very well that Barron was not a villain. He said so much so that the other party could understand him, so he said,
"I happened to find out that Zhang Huaiyi was not the only one among the 36 thieves who was lucky enough to escape with his life. Other than Feng Tianyang and Zheng Zibu, almost all the people who comprehended the Eight Strange Skills … did not get the ending they deserved at that time."
"Even though they already possessed the Eight Mystical Skills, they were still inferior to Zhang Huaiyi in terms of ability. They even brought the Eight Mystical Skills and escaped from the company's jurisdiction. Among them … was Mr. Barran's savior."
As he spoke..,
His gaze became colder. "When Mr. Barron obtained the Liuku Immortal Thieves, at that time … I really thought too simply of everything, so much so that I thought that the 36 thieves would not be able to escape their deserved ending in the end."
"After all, even Zhang Huaiyi, who had mastered the source of gas, even if he had the strength to rival the thieves, in the end, he still chose to walk towards the destined ending."
"I thought …"
"Since the 36 thieves were able to become brothers with different surnames, they should more or less have something in common. Even if the others were completely different individuals from Zhang Huaiyi, their views on the Eight Strange Skills would not be too different. In the end, I was wrong."
"Zhou Sheng, Ma Benzai … they did choose to bear the sin like Zhang Huaiyi. They did not choose to escape from the ending they deserved."
"The reason why the two ultimate skills, the Wind Empress and the Hundred Refinements of the Divine Armament, still exist is because regardless of whether the two of them know their sins or not, they still have the same obsession as ordinary people towards this godly … realm that is almost impossible for them to reach."
"But even so …"
"When they left behind their ultimate skills, they at least made it clear that they shouldn't exist. They also didn't casually pass on these two ultimate skills to others. They either kept them in their sect and let the sect decide whether or not they should exist, or … they chose a suitable successor."
"This shows that they are the same as Zhang Huaiyi. They know very well whether the Eight Mystic Skills should exist or not, and they also know that it was a mistake to comprehend them. So … they will try their best to prevent them from causing the chaos that happened back then."
"Duanmu Ying's situation is indeed somewhat complicated. However, she is indeed dead. Moreover, due to certain circumstances that are inconvenient for me to tell you directly, her revenge … I will not choose to decline or ignore it."
"Gu Crooked Pavilion was just a pitiful person who was blindly loyal to the rootless life. But I have to say … it was because of his existence that I was able to understand what happened back then. Only then did I know that there was a thief in this world who would do anything to survive."
"As for this Ruan Feng …"
"Mr. Barran, he passed on the actions of the Immortal Thief Liuku to you. In your eyes, it might be a kind action to 'save' someone. Based on human considerations, it could be considered a correct choice. But in my opinion … this person's attitude towards the Eight Mystic Skills is rather dangerous."
"You mean …" Barran's brows were tightly furrowed. "An outsider like me shouldn't live?"
"Mr. Ruan, in order to save me, he passed on the actions of the Immortal Thief Liuku to me … in reality, it was also a rather big mistake?"
In response to this …
Liu Xiaojiang didn't directly reply. Instead, he looked straight into Barran's extremely dissatisfied eyes and said:
"Mr. Barran, you can say that my thoughts are inhumane, and you can also treat me as an inhumane monster …"
"But you can't deny …"
"If it was people like Zhang Huaiyi, Zhou Sheng, and Ma Benzai, regardless of whether they were willing to watch you lose your life, these Eight Mystic Skills … they wouldn't casually pass it on to a stranger, let alone an outsider like you who even looks different from us."
"And Ruan Feng …"
"Not only did he casually pass on the Immortal Thief Liuku to you, he didn't even mention the problem of its existence to you. He completely didn't care if you would pass it on to … pass it on to an even more innocent outsider after you learned it. He didn't care if you would be erased by the mutants because of it."
"Mr. Barran, he might have passed on the Immortal Thief Liuku to you in order to save you, but he definitely wouldn't treat you as his successor, let alone treat you as the so-called 'one of us'. Moreover … he might even treat you as a shield to attract firepower outside."
"After all, he had already escaped abroad, and the mutants in the circle didn't know where he had gone, nor did they know whether he was dead or alive …"
"But at this time …"
"If a successor like you suddenly appeared under the noses of the mutants, would Ruan Feng, whose whereabouts and whether he was dead or alive for many years … be more important than the Immortal Thief Liuku?"
Barran naturally understood what Liu Xiaojiang meant, but his eyes were still filled with disbelief.
"You've never even met Mr. Ruan, so these are just your guesses …"
"Okay …" Liu Xiaojiang didn't wait for Barran to finish his words, and waved his hand with a smile.
"Since Mr. Barran thinks that Ruan Feng is a good person, then tell me … This great benefactor who saved you and passed on the Immortal Thief Liuku to you, has he ever told you where he is?"
"Mr. Barran, although you think that you are an unacknowledged successor, you have indeed inherited the Immortal Thief Liuku's ultimate skill …"
"Besides, even if Ruan Feng doesn't treat you as his successor, as someone who has also learned the Eight Mystic Skills, you have a great relationship with him. Under normal circumstances … how could he not have contacted you?"
Hearing these words, Barran couldn't believe it.
Even if he didn't want to believe the truth, he couldn't help but start to have doubts. "Since you know very well that I don't know where Mr. Ruan is, then why did you ask me to come here today …?"
"Because Mr. Barran is a good person …" Liu Xiaojiang interrupted with a smile.
"Regardless of what kind of person Ruan Feng is, and whether or not he is what I say he is, he is still Mister Barran's savior, and even the teacher of the Immortal Thief Liuku. How can you not care about his situation, and how can you not search for his whereabouts?"
"Besides …"
"I believe in Mr. Barran's abilities. Besides, based on Mr. Barran's previous identity and occupation, is there anyone in this world who knows better than you where to hide?"
