"Ahem... Zhou Lingfeng lied to me... Or did you lie to Zhou Lingfeng..." Jing Daoxian, who had lost all the blood in his body, had only one breath left. He coughed repeatedly, but he couldn't even cough up blood.
"You two are the only humans who have seen my true form." Lord Emperor said calmly.
"So... speaking of it... I was defeated... not unjustly..." Jing Daoxian said, the vitality in his body quickly dissipated, and he soon lost his breath.
Lord Emperor's sharp eyes were fixed on Zhou Wen.
"Ahem, Sir Emperor, please don't misunderstand me. I knew Jingdaoxian was no match for you, so I just tricked him into revealing his true colors." Zhou Wen coughed lightly.
"You are not a good person either." Master Di snorted coldly.
"Lord Emperor, you also lied to me, didn't you? Everyone is talking to each other, don't tell anyone else." Zhou Wen said.
Lord Di glanced at Zhou Wen and said coldly: "I didn't expect that I would lose to you and your son. Everything belongs to you, but there will be plenty of opportunities in the future, and I will get along well with you and your son."
Zhou Wen couldn't help but smile bitterly to himself. He had probably guessed some clues.
The things Lord Emperor said were basically the truth, but he still lied to Zhou Wen in the key point.
Lord Emperor was obviously an immortal, so why did he have the shell of a human body? Zhou Wen had always doubted this issue at that time.
Later, I finally figured it out, and now I can basically confirm that my original judgment was correct.
The reason why Lord Emperor has a human body must be because the things in the box can only be owned or used by humans.
If Zhou Wen had opened the box before, the contents inside would most likely be taken away by the emperor.
Now that there is no human body, Lord Emperor loses the qualification to get the contents of the box, and the threat to Zhou Wen is much smaller.
However, it can be inferred from what Lord Emperor said that the truth of the matter should be more complicated than Zhou Wen thought before.
It is very likely that the woman who came by boat was also involved. Maybe Lord Emperor's human body was made by that woman. There was some kind of agreement between the two people.
"Lord Emperor, a person like you naturally promises a lot of money. Since you said you would settle accounts with us father and son in the future, you shouldn't embarrass me today, right?" Zhou Wen is not willing to fight to the death with Lord Emperor now.
"Try saying nonsense again?" Master Di was obviously in a bad mood.
Zhou Wen smiled, said nothing, took out the key, inserted it into the keyhole of the jade box, and turned the key gently.
Both Emperor Di and Zhou Wen were stunned, because Zhou Wen tried hard several times, but the key didn't move.
"Did you really use the key to open this box?" Zhou Wen looked at Lord Di.
Lord Emperor's face looked a little weird, and he asked Zhou Wen to pull out the key, hold it in his hand and look at it for a long time, then returned it to Zhou Wen and asked Zhou Wen to try again.
The result was still the same. No matter how hard Zhou Wen tried, the key could not open the jade box at all.
"How could it be...impossible..." Master Di looked in disbelief.
"It seems that I can't help you anymore. I'd better give this back to you." Zhou Wen threw the key to Lord Emperor.
In fact, Zhou Wen had already guessed that he might not be able to open the jade box, because he was not at all the Earth's Companion Pet that the emperor said.
If he was the companion pet of the earth, how could the prisoner not feel it at first? After all, he was once the companion pet of the earth, so it was impossible not to notice it at all.
"This is impossible. You are the companion pet of the Earth. You should be able to open it, unless... it is impossible... If you were not the baby taken away by Zhou Lingfeng, how could you possibly practice the Mysterious Immortal Sutra..." Lord Emperor had obviously figured something out. joints, but I haven’t completely figured it out yet.
Zhou Wen had already figured it out a long time ago. Zhou Lingfeng didn't lie to him. He and An Jing had indeed switched. If nothing else, An Jing was the Earth's companion.
What Zhou Wen couldn't figure out was what kind of method Zhou Lingfeng used to hide the truth from the outside world. Even the existence of Lord Emperor was not discovered.
"What a Zhou Lingfeng, he really took great pains to prevent me from getting out of trouble!" Mr. Di seemed to have figured everything out and gritted his teeth in hatred.
Born at the end of the world, he was almost invincible throughout his life. His only defeat was at the hands of an unimaginable person, and that person died because of it.
Now that he is being plotted against by mere humans, this makes Lord Emperor feel extremely shameful and humiliated.
"Lord Emperor, what's going on? One person is plotting against the other and two are plotting against each other. Let's talk about it and let's analyze it together. I'm still confused." Zhou Wen asked pretending not to know.
"You are Zhou Lingfeng's scapegoat. What qualifications do you have to make sarcastic comments here?" Lord Emperor said coldly.
"You mean, my father asked me to die for the Earth Companion Pet?" Zhou Wen said in surprise.
"Hmph, you are really hopelessly stupid for still calling me daddy and treating a thief as your father. If you were really the biological son of that shameless man Zhou Lingfeng, how could he let you be the scapegoat and hide the true companion of the earth? "Master Di looked at Zhou Wen as if he was looking at an idiot.
"It's just that I don't understand, why can you practice the Immortal Sutra when you are not the companion of the Earth? This is impossible." Master Di looked Zhou Wen up and down. She still hasn't figured out this question until now.
"Why is it impossible? Didn't you already say that the Earth Companion Pet is a human being, and I am also a human being? Didn't Jingdao Immortal also practice the Mysterious Immortal Sutra?" Zhou Wen said.
"Is that thing he practices worthy of being called the Immortal Sutra?" Lord Emperor said disdainfully: "They are both stones. Can granite be compared with diamonds?"
"Maybe I am the stone that looks more like a diamond?" Zhou Wen said.
"Let's go. This is a shame I have never felt in my life. But even if there is no Earth Companion Pet to take away the things, it will be a matter of time before the ban is broken. In no more than a year, this thing will be born naturally, and my vow will be fulfilled Break it, then I will see how Zhou Lingfeng can stop me." Mr. Di sat back on the box, closed his eyes and ignored Zhou Wen.
Zhou Wen saw that Lord Emperor no longer paid attention to him, glanced at Jing Daoxian's body and said, "I took his body away."
Seeing that Lord Emperor still ignored him, Zhou Wen picked up Jing Daoxian's body and walked out.
When a person dies and his debts are gone, he is already a dead person, so there is nothing to worry about. Liu Yun is still waiting outside. After all, this is his only relative. Bring his body to Liu Yun and let him bury it.
After leaving the Nuwa Temple, I saw Liu Yun still guarding the door.
When Liu Yun saw Jing Daoxian's body, his expression suddenly changed.
When Zhou Wen was about to return the body to Liu Yun and explain what happened, he suddenly felt the body in his hands move.
Zhou Wen was startled and threw the body on the ground.
I saw a crack on the back of the shriveled corpse, and something was squirming inside, tearing open the crack bit by bit and getting out from inside.
First a finger, then the entire palm, an arm emerging from it, then the head and body.
A young miniature version of Jing Daoxian, with a body as delicate as a baby, emerged from it, leaving only a strange empty skin in the ground.
"You're not dead?" Zhou Wen looked at the young version of Jing Daoxian with some surprise.
"The Sutra of Confused Immortals, the Sutra of Confused Immortals, can't confuse even a mere immortal clan, so how can it be called the name of Confused Immortals? Naturally, my old man will not die so easily." Not only did Jing Daoxian's body become a teenager, but his voice also changed very much. It was immature, like a child whose voice had not changed. It didn't match the tone of his voice at all, and it sounded weird.
"The Well Dao Immortal is indeed the Well Dao Immortal!" Zhou Wen couldn't help but secretly admired that none of the old guys who were able to control the Federation back then were fuel-efficient.
Only now did Zhou Wen understand why Jing Daoxian had to bring Liu Yun here to guard the gate. It seemed superfluous before, but now it seems that he is really cunning.
