The clear sound of raindrops hitting the eaves tiles.
The whole attic fell into dead silence.
The lightning and thunder outside and the silence inside separated two completely different worlds.
"Say it!" It seemed that after being silent for long enough, Li Xuanzhen finally spoke.
This seems like a way of admitting defeat and surrender, but it can only go so far.
If she was truly someone who could completely let go of her self-esteem, she wouldn't have gotten worse and worse in the past two years.
After all, although Taixuanmen is not a place that cares about humanity, it is not an unkind place either.
It’s not that people are indifferent, it’s that if you don’t come to ask me for help, why should I help you?
Good people also have tempers!
Even among Li Tianxing's old friends, there are only a few who like to have hot faces but cold buttocks. After all, they are all masters and have dignity.
"It's been rumored recently that some people from the south are planning to put on a show here. I don't know what kind of show it is. But this is an opportunity for you and me," Jing Mu said.
Li Xuanzhen sneered and said: "After all, it's because of a lowly background and a petty attitude. If you think it's our Taixuanmen's turn for outsiders to get involved in the family scandal, you will be scorned by everyone."
Jing Mu frowned and said impatiently: "Of course I know that if you want to be protected by the rules, you have to act within the rules. If we bring things into the eyes of outsiders, we will become traitors. When the time comes, others will want to You don’t even have to find a reason to deal with us.”
"So we don't promote the ugly, but promote the beautiful."
Li Xuanzhen was stunned when he heard this and did not fully understand what Jing Mu meant.
In fact, even Jing Mu himself didn't quite understand the meaning of his words.
As if he had no brain, some words and some thoughts came out naturally.
What he said at this moment was not what he had planned in his mind before he came.
"Although Master Li Shan has been in seclusion for many years and has not been exposed to the outside world, he still had many legendary deeds back then. We can use one or two to let outsiders admire him. And you, after all, have a good skin."
"A good-looking person, even if he has some stains on his body, as long as he finds the right method, these stains will become pitiable in the eyes of people who don't understand the truth." Jing Mu spoke at this time without any politeness at all.
At this moment, Li Xuanzhen seemed to feel that the Jing Mu in front of him had changed.
Her feelings weren't wrong.
It was Lin Xi who said those two sentences!
Two years were enough for Lin Xi to silently control and exaggerate Jing Mu's soul. At some point, control and synchronization are accomplished without hindrance.
Even if Lin Xi replaced Jing Mu for a short period of time, he would not feel that he was being controlled, but that he would just have a sudden whim with the help of God.
"Does it make sense to do this?" Li Xuanzhen asked.
She no longer had much mood to care about the rudeness in 'Jing Mu's' tone.
In the past two years, he has heard too many unkind words.
So much so that she was a little numb.
"When people see something beautiful, they instinctively want to dig out the story behind it. They look for both its causes and its shortcomings. It is human heart and human nature to drag those who are high up into the mud." Jing Mu He said something that didn't seem easy to understand.
Li Xuanzhen understood it thoroughly.
"Let them discover the stories about you and me, so what"
"Do you think these people who came from the south will do justice for you and me? Let alone you and me. But without justice, we are just winners and losers!" Li Xuanzhen said with a sneer.
Jing Mu sighed: "It won't be worse than it is now, and I have already prepared for it. Although we both have a bad reputation among the top leaders, there are some things at the bottom that can still be changed subtly. Yes. At that time, the relationship between the mainstream and the gossip was very ambiguous. When everyone resisted the truth that was readily available to them, those decorated alternative narratives would become the truth that everyone recognized."
"There is no truth. It's just a different perspective."
Li Xuanzhen pointed at Jing Mu and suddenly laughed strangely.
Tears of laughter almost came out.
"Understood!"
"Everything is understood!"
"That bitch man and I are just your pawns. We are all giving you a chance. Your ambition is not just to cling to me and be the second boss. You want to be a real master, you have to In Taixuanmen, this land watered by immortal iron, tear apart your own territory."
"You are truly the most dangerous and profound one."
"We were all deceived by you. Your plan started two years ago. Maybe it was the moment you met me, or maybe it was the moment you met that bitch, or maybe even earlier."
Jing Mu was silent, without explanation or defense.
Some words cannot be explained clearly.
What's more, is this kind of result today, is it God's will or man-made?
Jing Mu himself couldn't explain clearly.
Although his memory seems to have become blurry, he was passive when the incident began.
But inexplicably, he felt that he was taking the initiative in all this.
Everything he has now is not something he asked for, nor is it due to fate, but he has already planned and prepared for it.
The night is getting darker.
The titmouse in the distance stands on the tree, hiding under the branches with buds, and its eyes are full of spirituality.
He combed his wings that were wetted by the rain, shook his body, then flapped his wings and flew high into the vast rain curtain, disappearing into the boundless night.
Jing Mu did not stay in the attic.
Even the relationship between him and Li Xuanzhen has long been unclear, let alone explained. And Li Xuanzhen did not resist him staying, and even attracted him and tempted him intentionally or unintentionally.
But Jing Mu had just drank, and people who had drunk alcohol were not suitable to drive.
Another half month passed.
A spaceship full of technology stopped at the foot of the Taixuan Gate.
Many Taixuan Sect disciples looked at the huge mechanical creation that shone with silver light, was inlaid with large crystals, and had runic auras, and showed curious expressions.
Although I have long heard that there are many incredible places in this world, and there are many civilizations that they have contacted and understood, and they are completely different civilizations.
But there are not that many people who have truly seen and understood it.
However, the senior officials of Taixuan Sect who were already waiting at the door were not surprised.
If one's cultivation reaches the realm of Yuanshen, the distance within the world is no longer a big problem.
Almost every Yuanshen monk of a certain age has had the experience of traveling around the world.
They have already seen the tricks in the south.
Although for low-level monks, that type of civilization may be more attractive, more diverse and strange.
But for monks who have truly reached a higher level, all the core elements have not changed.
Everything is still everything.
No matter what the outer covering is, the inner things remain unchanged.
The north is not purgatory, and the south is not a paradise.
