Capítulo 1967: Chapter 1966: Fate Coin, Ti-Space Marshal
Upon hearing Qizi’s words, the elder called Old Ghost at the counter slowly raised his head.
His face was sowhat ferocious and eerie.
His skin was parched like the yellow earth, with countless cracks.
His eyes were deeply sunken.
His nose was hooked like an eagle’s, and his hair was very dense, almost covering his eyes.
Old Ghost calmly said, “Do you know what the Empress’s legacy is?”
“I’ll know once I acquire it,” Qizi replied.
“That’s not a legacy, it’s a deadly poison. You can’t touch it, and neither can I,” said Old Ghost.
His gaze was profound.
Seeing Qizi’s seemingly disbelieving expression, he explained, “So Principles left behind by the Empress.
If you take those Principles, you’ll beco an enemy of the Heavenly Dao.
Years ago, I examined that legacy.
But I dared not touch it, and no one else dared to either.”
At this point, Old Ghost chuckled self-mockingly.
“There are many ancient monsters living in Victory City, so even surviving from the Ancient Era, as far as I know.
Do you really think they can’t see the mystery of those Principles?”
“Do you truly believe that after all these years, no one knows about the Empress’s legacy?”
“In fact, so do know, and even dream of it, but they still dare not touch it.”
At this point, Old Ghost stared at Qizi.
His gaze was chilling as he spoke each word forcefully: “Because it belongs to the Heaven Challenger.
It’s the forbidden mark left by the Empress.
But look, after the Ancient Era, the Empress failed in her Heaven Challenge. Has anyone else challenged Heaven?”
No one challenged Heaven, so no one dared to touch those Principles.
Before the Empress, there was a world she created, but ultimately it was a failure.
However, she did compile so experiences.
She left the frawork of the world behind, for the next Heaven Challengers to hopefully supplent upon.
Ultimately, through efforts like Yu Gong moving a mountain, generation after generation could complete this failed world.
To beco a true world.
It’s just that the Empress didn’t anticipate that after her, there would be no more Heaven Challengers.
Nor did she anticipate that Xu Zii would have a complete world, the frawork she left becoming nourishnt, integrated into the Divine Continent.
……
Listening to Old Ghost’s words, Qizi didn’t argue about this issue.
Though his heart still longed for the Empress’s legacy.
But he also knew he couldn’t out-argue the other.
So he said, “Years ago you owed a favor, I need you to repay it.”
“How do you want to repay you?” Old Ghost asked.
“Kill that person,” Qizi said.
Old Ghost didn’t agree rashly; instead, he turned around and took a small jar from the cabinet.
This jar contained several ancient copper coins.
The copper coins, covered in rust, seed to have been kept for a long ti, making the inscriptions barely discernible.
You could vaguely make out the words “Ancient Bagua.”
Old Ghost took out the copper coins and shook them a few tis.
From the outside, it looked like an ordinary shake, but if you looked closely, you’d find these coins seed to rge with Old Ghost.
The aura around Old Ghost and the aura emitted by the coins seed identical.
“Boom,” the small jar fell to the ground, and Old Ghost opened the jar.
Inside, the copper coins had turned into powder.
Old Ghost was startled.
What this ant, he hadn’t seen for many years.
The copper coins were remnants from the Ancient Era, known as fate money.
These coins could connect with the user’s fate, thereby preempting fate.
Before you do anything, you shake the fate money, and it will guide you on whether it’s good or bad.
If it’s sothing bad, the fate money will crack.
But preemptively, like this, the fate money turning to powder indicated sothing worse than bad.
It ant this matter was enough to bring about his demise.
In other words, he was destined to die, and the fate money had indicated as much.
He looked deeply at Qizi.
This guy is quite a trap, if he hadn’t preemptively calculated, he might have been deceived to death this ti.
“What’s wrong?” Qizi still cluelessly asked.
“You owe a favor, don’t you plan to default?
This isn’t your style.”
“Rember back then…”
Qizi wanted to continue but was interrupted by Old Ghost.
Old Ghost said, “I do owe you a favor, but for this matter, your favor is not worth it.
Choose another.”
“Why?” Qizi asked, stunned.
He knew the strength of the Old Ghost before him.
Perplexed, he asked, “It’s just killing soone, not sending you to die. Why can’t it be done?”
“In no way is it different from sending to my death,” Old Ghost snorted internally.
He didn’t reveal it but still trusted the judgnt of the fate money.
So he said, “In any case, as I said, anything else but this.”
As the two spoke, Xu Zii arrived at the doorstep of Old Ghost’s shop.
This place was truly hard to find.
Xu Zii had asked many people before finding this alley.
Arriving at the shop’s entrance, Xu Zii gazed around before walking in.
……
“You… why are you here?” Song Chang’an shouted.
Previously, he had bet with Xu Zii, challenging him to comprehend the Sorrowful Heaven Buddha’s divine power. Whoever lost would have to run around Victory City naked.
When the Acacia cult attacked, Qizi had taken Song Chang’an and left, Song Chang’an had always felt a little guilty.
Now eting again, it was inevitable his expression would beco uncomfortable.
Even Qizi was briefly shocked, quickly glancing at Old Ghost, whispering, “That’s the person I told you about.”
A piercing light flashed in Old Ghost’s eyes.
Suddenly, his hunched figure stood upright, he slowly smiled and said, “An esteed guest is visiting; it has been many years.”
Qizi was taken aback.
He thought Old Ghost was going to take action.
Who would’ve thought he’d say sothing like that.
An esteed guest?
One must know that not just anyone could be called an esteed guest at Old Ghost’s shop.
Qizi was not foolish. Seeing Old Ghost’s reaction, he seed to have figured sothing out.
He greeted Xu Zii and stepped aside.
“Are you Old Ghost?” Xu Zii asked.
He ignored Qizi and his group; though he had slain people from All-Heaven Academy, it was Wenren Xue.
There was no grudge between him and Qizi.
As for Qizi hiring soone to kill him, he was unaware of this.
“I am,” Old Ghost smiled.
His cracked face made smiling scarier than crying.
“I need to visit the Land of Chaos, and I’ve heard you have a Ti-Space Shuttle,” Xu Zii inquired.
“A Ti-Space Shuttle?” Old Ghost pondered.
He had many items, seed he had to think a bit.
After so ti, he nodded.
“The Empress had a War General nad Ti-Space Marshal.
After his Heaven Challenge, descendants exchanged the Ti-Space Shuttle here with .”
“This item should be the Ti-Space Shuttle.”
