Regarding Ruan Feng's problem …
Liu Xiaojiang didn't think too much about it. No matter if Ruan Feng was the kind of person who would resort to unscrupulous means to survive and didn't hesitate to teach the Liuku Immortal Thief to others in order to protect himself, Liu Xiaojiang didn't have any personal feelings toward him.
Hatred? No …
The reason why Liu Xiaojiang had such strong murderous intent toward Ruan Feng was entirely because Ruan Feng's casual teaching of the Liuku Immortal Thief would indeed affect the plan that he came up with with a certain old man.
Moreover …
Liu Xiaojiang had to kill Barron Grylls personally in order to find out about Ruan Feng's whereabouts. Even though he wouldn't push the blame to Ruan Feng, he more or less felt that Ruan Feng … was the main culprit of this tragedy.
Considering the fact that Ruan Feng taught the Immortal Thief Liuku so casually, there was a high possibility that it was just for him to have more shields in this world. Barran's death was just wishful thinking … Why would he give a despicable person like Ruan Feng a chance to live?
But …
Ruan Feng's performance in the face of the calamity had greatly exceeded Liu Xiaojiang's expectations.
He didn't expect Ruan Feng to sacrifice himself in exchange for a chance for his friends to escape when he knew that he was going to die. Besides … he didn't hesitate at all when making the choice.
This left Liu Xiaojiang with no choice but to reconsider Ruan Feng's problem.
After all, he was never a devil who liked to kill the innocent. Moreover, even if the 36 Thieves, including the Rootless Brothers, were in the wrong, the years of hardship made them pay for their mistakes.
In this world, no one deserved to die because of their birth …
It was impossible for Liu Xiaojiang to want to get rid of the so-called scourge for the world just because Ruan Feng made a mistake in the past. He even wanted to kill this guy who didn't want to enter the world again and only wanted to live.
As for Ruan Feng's casual teaching of the Liuku Immortal Thief …
Liu Xiaojiang didn't think that killing Ruan Feng was the only way to solve the problem, which was why he wanted to confirm Ruan Feng's reason for doing so.
However, if this reason proved that the other party was a factor of unrest and disregarded the stability and stability of the world for the sake of his own survival, then even if Ruan Feng looked very pitiful living in hiding, he would definitely not let such a despicable person continue to live in this world.
…
"What do you want to ask?" Ruan Feng retracted his gaze from Chen Duo. He knew that he had no chance of winning against Liu Xiaojiang. Naturally, he wouldn't let go of the chance to live that the other party had given him.
As for why Chen Duo also had her own method and seemed to have developed another powerful constitution, he couldn't possibly ask … nor did he dare to ask.
"Reason." Liu Xiaojiang saw that Ruan Feng was willing to cooperate, so he asked without delay.
"I want to know what you think of the Eight Mystical Skills, and more importantly … Why did you casually teach it to others like today?"
Hearing this,
Ruan Feng looked at Liu Xiaojiang in confusion. He didn't seem to understand why a person like Liu Xiaojiang would care about something like the Eight Strange Skills that didn't amount to much.
However, he was very clear about his current position. He wouldn't ask about Liu Xiaojiang at all. He only thought about it carefully and answered,
"Although I know that I don't have the right to create it and that I only got it by chance, even so … It's something that no one else has seen before except for me. Passing it down can be considered as not letting down the opportunity I had back then."
"As for my opinion of it …"
At this point,
He remembered Liu Xiaojiang's attitude that he had clearly expressed earlier. For a moment, he didn't know whether he should tell the truth or not.
"Even I'm conflicted about this …"
"I'm very clear about my mistake of becoming sworn brothers with the evil path back then. I also understand that the Eight Strange Skills might not have appeared, but it's a precious thing that can satisfy the desire of the world to live forever. Even if I want to give it up rationally … I can't do it in reality."
"I can only say …"
"The reason why I am where I am today is because I can only blame myself for not being able to cultivate properly enough …"
"You know it's wrong, but you keep making mistakes …" Liu Xiaojiang didn't believe Ruan Feng's words completely. Instead, he looked at him calmly and said,
"Although the Liuku Immortal Thief is a consummate skill that you comprehended after a fortuitous encounter, the opportunity left behind by Taoist Zi Yang in the valley can be said to be a heavenly secret … It's impossible for mortals to understand it."
"If it wasn't for the rootless life as a bridge, you wouldn't have been able to comprehend the consummate skill through this opportunity. However, even if you really comprehended it back then, you only ate something that others had chewed on. With your talent … it's even more impossible for you to live forever with it."
"After understanding this fact and understanding the principle of short-term pain is better than long-term pain, are you still unwilling to give up on the Liuku Immortal Thief?"
"What if?" Although Ruan Feng didn't know why Liu Xiaojiang knew so much, he wasn't surprised by what he said. Then, he retorted with a burning gaze.
"Your words prove that it can indeed allow people to reach the realm of immortality, and I … have indeed experienced its power. I'm already over a hundred years old, but I'm still in my prime."
"Even if my talent isn't enough, as long as I have more time, I believe that I can achieve true immortality one day …"
"Fifty years is too short. A hundred years is not enough. Five hundred years is just a fraction. A thousand years … can barely be considered to have lived in this world, but it's still not enough … It's not enough at all."
At this point.
He looked up at Liu Xiaojiang and the other two and spread his hands agitatedly.
"What do you mean by eternal loneliness …"
"What can only watch as your family and friends leave one by one …"
"What immortality? It's just an almost eternal loneliness and pain …"
"These so-called rational arguments, this so-called suffering of immortality, in my opinion … are all nonsense!"
"There are plenty of reasons in this world that can support people to live for a long time. Loneliness? Loneliness? If you're so antisocial that you don't want to make new friends, if you're so weak that you can't face life, old age, illness, and death … then let your family and friends achieve immortality together! "
"Suffering of immortality? Haha … It's all bullshit! "
"What a pity …" Liu Xiaojiang looked at Ruan Feng without any emotion in his eyes, but he couldn't help but feel some sympathy for Ruan Feng, who longed for immortality.
"You're all just tools in his hands. Although the Liuku Immortal Thief does have the possibility of achieving immortality, on you … I don't see any chance of success."
"You …"
"No, not just you. There's also that guy beside you, and Barron Grylls, who died in my hands. Even if you get the Liuku Immortal Thief … you won't be able to live past 500 years old."
