Chapter 1485: Chapter 145: Make It So He Can’t Turn Back
Just as Yu Beidou finished speaking, the Diviner sneered: “I calculated with the blood divination for you, what does it have to do with Jiang Wang? You deliberately gave Jiang Wang a broken amulet, trying to misdirect Saint Water to Qi Country’s hands, thinking others are fools to let you deceive them? Have you ever considered, if I am truly interested in the Immortal Palace, why would I just co to find Jiang Wang now? Back when I was in Yong Country, I already knew about Jiang Wang, yet I did not seek him out!”
He turned his head to look at Jiang Wang: “When Zheng Fei and Li Shou were working at Green Cloud Pavilion, you were there too, right? You even saved soone and left. After the event, did I ever co looking for you? Ask yourself, if I sought you out back then, would you have had a chance to escape?”
Jiang Wang remained silent.
Yet silence itself is a form of attitude.
Diviner turned back to Yu Beidou: “Today I brought people here to kill you. How would I know where Jiang Wang is located? It was you who deliberately revealed that you have a friend in the Innate Chaos Array hunting for the Blood Demon’s life blood, only then did I send people to search… Ultimately, Jiang Wang is risking his life because of you, or because of ?”
The whole matter in Diviner’s words takes on a completely different nature, yet his logic is clear, and coherence is evident.
Yu Beidou spoke in an astonished tone: “Good nephew, how could you distort black and white?”
Diviner replied coldly: “Uncle, who is distorting black and white is clear in your heart! You must know that deceiving for a mont is easy, but deceiving for a lifeti is hard!”
Jiang Wang already knew about their relationship from the Masked Demon, so he wasn’t too surprised.
Seeing them arguing intensely and confrontationally, he couldn’t help but say: “Gentlen, am I that important?”
“Of course!” Yu Beidou quickly said: “This person is a notorious evil, and the Blood Demon is a scourge of the Human Race. I suppress them single-handedly, unable to spare any effort. As for you, you are heaven-sent talent and peerless genius. Today, who else but you to eliminate evil for the sake of the people?!”
“Do you decide what is good and evil? What is good, what is evil?” Diviner retorted: “You envied the virtuous, plotted to kill your senior brother, can that be considered good? Moreover, even if I am a villain, when have I ever hard Jiang Wang? Who dragged him into danger, who turned a proud genius into a person with missing limbs and ears?! You, the self-proclaid saintly person, why do you speak lies?”
“Alright, alright.” Jiang Wang interjected, his tone eerie: “What I an is… since I’m so important, can you ntion sothing important?”
Important things?
Diviner was briefly stunned.
What is important? Isn’t the debate between good and evil crucial for such a peerless genius and passionate youth?
“Ahem!” Yu Beidou was the first to catch on, offering: “I’ll give you twenty more Pri Stones!”
“Ha! Uncle, do you seem to underestimate Jiang Tianfu?” Diviner, sensing the pulse precisely, imdiately upped the ante: “Jiang Qingyang, I am not like so habitual charlatans who fool around. I won’t speak falsely with you. If you help today, I’ll give you a thousand Pri Stones, a Vestnt robe, and three Outer Building level secret techniques! If you have any enemies, regardless of their cultivation level, I’ll perform a blood divination for you!”
“It sounds quite attractive…” Jiang Wang turned to Yu Beidou: “Senior Yu, are you not going to raise the offer?”
Yu Beidou was suddenly filled with righteous indignation: “Isn’t the Human World Righteous Path worth defending? Isn’t the safety of the Human Race worth your dedication? If you align yourself with demons, how are you different from demons? For re small profits, will you abandon your stance? If this news spreads, where in the world will you find a place to stand?”
“If I kill you, it won’t spread.” Diviner kindly reminded.
Yu Beidou glared angrily at him, and Diviner matched his glare without backing down.
Jiang Wang rely said “Oh” and moved forward slightly, looking at the Blood Demon with a clean-shaven face: “And you, sir?”
Liu Huai seed unprepared for such a possibility.
He just silently observed the dispute between Diviner and Yu Beidou, feeling it was irrelevant to himself.
After all, demon, public enemy of the Human Race, right?
How could he possibly be bought?
He hesitated a mont and then cautiously said: “If you help , I could send you to the All-world desolate graves?”
Jiang Wang sighed and said to Yu Beidou: “Otherwise, I should help you exterminate demons first? I think he’s practically beyond salvation. This can be priced cheaper, you decide how much to give.”
Yu Beidou laughed heartily: “This one is hard to slaughter; killing them won’t be easy. You’d better start with the Human Demon!”
“Jiang Wang! Conditions can still be negotiated!” Diviner urged: “Dragged into peril, life hanging by a thread, aren’t you at all angry? Slaying Wan E and them, even for a peerless genius like you, would an certain death! Aren’t you willing to just let yourself be manipulated like this? You’ve already been deceived into Broken Soul Gorge, yet you are again tricked into the array. How long will you let yourself be deceived? Until you die? Really, without resentnt?”
After hearing his words, Jiang Wang sighed deeply, looked at his empty left leg, then at Yu Beidou, his gaze becoming serious: “Honestly, I am indeed very angry. I have no obligation to fight for you, regardless of whether you pursue justice or moral righteousness or so great Human Race duty, you have no right to deceive into the ga, nor to compel to risk my life.
A master once told — ‘To demand others with your standards is already harsh, to demand the world with your standards, then you are evil without knowing it, you are the demon among demons.’
Senior Yu, I deeply agree with this.”
“That must be a master of great wisdom.” Yu Beidou praised and then, collecting his smile, earnestly said: “I need to tell you this, in my life prediction technique, your venture into Broken Soul Gorge this ti was calculated to be without danger. Clearly, I overestimated myself and underestimated my nephew, which resulted in an oversight in the Innate Chaos Array, leading you to face four Outer Building Human Demons directly at the Inner Mansion Realm. This is my mistake, one I cannot deny, and I will certainly find a way to make ands.
I expended considerable effort to re-establish communication with you in the Innate Chaos Array, but at that ti, you had already finished the battle.
What I’m saying now, perhaps you believe it, perhaps you don’t. If you trust , I am grateful. If you don’t, it is justified, you have every right.”
This was probably Jiang Wang’s most serious and solemn conversation with Yu Beidou.
Gone were the “Wushuang Tianfu’s supre Amulets” and other nonsense that he typically spouted, rely recognizing his mistake straightforwardly as a so-called “True Man of the Age” known for his “half-life divination technique.”
“As the number one in life prediction technique of the present age, Yu Beidou makes oversights?” Diviner sneered: “Only fooling young people!”
“Hahaha,” Yu Beidou laughed, seeming genuinely happy: “Human calculation is outdone by heavenly calculation. How can one account for everything? If I were free of miscalculations, how could I have led your master astray back then? If I were flawless, how could you have escaped all these years? If there were no mistakes… why would the life prediction technique have arrived at this point today?”
He laughed heartily while looking at Jiang Wang: “I too wish to account for everything like gods and spirits! But my divination has always only been accurate throughout the first half of life! Laughable, laughable!”
There was a ghost-head blade stuck on his forehead, his posterior brain swelling with blood, his face covered in blood as he laughed hauntingly —
“If the second half of life can’t be predicted, why predict the first half? Predict it to be irreversible, predict it to lack return, predict it to reach this stage, predict it to be powerless! Hahaha…”
