In love, there was no such thing as worthy of saying.
But in the end, humans were still valuable.
If that woman was in possession of her spirit, she would have despised Zhu Shigui and would have regretted the decision she made.
She had a deep affection for Zhu Shigui and it was built on the foundation that she thought Zhu Shigui had died.
If Zhu Shigui showed up right in front of her, how much pain would her heart ache?
Who could love a man who had abandoned his wife and children? Not to mention that other than abandoning his wife and children, Zhu Shigui also did a lot of evil things.
Taking out any one of them wasn't something she could accept.
She would find it dirty to be buried with such a man.
Unfortunately, no one knew who she was, and no one knew her story.
Her life came to an end a very, very long time ago, just like how there were many women in the mortal world with Tianjiang.
The proof that they had existed was probably only a name inscribed on a tombstone.
As for this name, most people would not care about it.
Ordinary life is like this, no one will understand your story, no one will pay attention to your existence.
In that case, the only thing a living person could do was to cherish and live a happy life every day.
To use a vulgar phrase, unhappy life, isn't it difficult to live with yourself?
Ye Lingtian carried the Han Knife and walked onto the embankment.
Very soon, he received a message from his cellphone — he stopped and waited by the river.
Ye Lingtian twitched his mouth at the screen, "You're so careful, you don't even dare to show your face."
Ye Lingtian slightly trembled as he weighed the key in his hand.
Pata!
The key fell to the floor.
Ye Lingtian stood in the cold wind for a long time before he bent down, picked up the key, and walked step by step towards the river bank.
He walked slowly, his steps heavy.
Ye Lingtian sat by the river, using his mind to scan the distance.
Many children were playing on the frozen river.
A trace of a smile flashed across Ye Lingtian's mouth.
Lighting a cigarette, Ye Lingtian raised his head and looked at the blue sky: "Fate is really strange and unpredictable."
A young girl wearing a down jacket slowly walked over, stepping on the frozen ground.
Ye Lingtian stood up and smiled at Ling Xi, "Have you suffered a lot these days?"
Ling Xi bit her lips as she squeezed out a smile from her pained face.
"Fortunately, she didn't do anything to me, but …"
"But she killed your family very cruelly."
Ye Lingtian took out the key from his pocket. His face was full of guilt.
"I've implicated you. I'm sorry."
Hearing Ye Lingtian's words, Ling Xi quickly said, "Uncle, don't say that."
"How do you say that?"
Ye Lingtian put the key in Ling Xi's hand and closed his eyes.
"Could it be that your family didn't die because of me, but rather the instant Zou Jiuzhou appeared in front of them, their fates were set?"
Ling Xi put the key in her pocket and replied with her head lowered.
"Maybe she didn't mention you, anyway?"
Ye Lingtian stared at Ling Xi's clear eyes. "Do you still remember how she killed someone?"
Ling Xi nodded slightly.
Ye Lingtian picked up the Han Knife from the ground and said slowly: "When she killed, did you think that she was an animal, an animal worse than pigs or dogs?"
A trace of fear flashed across Ling Xi's face.
"Uncle, she can hear us!"
"Of course she can!"
Ye Lingtian pulled the cold light out of his scabbard and smiled at Ling Xi, "Should I call you Ling Xi, or Zou Jiuzhou?"
Ling Xi's face was filled with fear. "Uncle, what nonsense are you spouting?"
Ye Lingtian pointed his Han Knife at Ling Xi and sneered: "Stop acting, Zou Jiuzhou, Ling Xi is long dead! I died before I met her! "
Ling Xi looked at Ye Lingtian with a weird smile on her face.
Pow!
She landed on her feet and scurried backward, waving her small hands behind her.
Bang!
The frozen ground exploded as the Thousand Souls Knife landed in his hands.
Ye Lingtian's hand trembled as he looked at his face, which was very familiar to him.
"Is this how you promote your Cultivation Level?"
The muscles on Ling Xi's face twitched, and before long, her appearance changed.
His ashen face and dull eyes made him look like an evil spirit from hell.
"Yes sir!"
"Deeply comprehending the Tao in the mortal world is not your patent, but why can't I do the same?" Zou Jiuzhou held the knife in his right hand and pointed it at the ground.
Ye Lingtian took a deep breath and scolded, "We can't be compared in the same way. I don't regard human life as worthless. You are willing to do anything to bring disaster upon the world."
"To cause trouble to the common people? Do you know what is called the common people? "
"Every flower and every tree has feelings. Since that's the case, what has Layman done to satisfy his own needs?"
"Since they can kill as they please in nature, why can't I kill some insignificant people in this world?"
"Deep down, everyone believes in the law of the jungle, what do I have to do with this?"
"Preposterous!" Ye Lingtian looked coldly at Zou Jiuzhou, "You forgot your identity, you are also human!"
"I am a god!"
Zou Jiuzhou's pale lips had a hint of arrogance. "Earlier, Secret World was controlled by Nine Great Venerables."
"From today onwards, Secret World are under my control. I am the supreme god of Secret World."
"I will protect this world and protect the dignity that a should have."
Ye Lingtian held his knife with both hands.
"If your protection is the same as before, no matter if it's in the mortal world or in Secret World, you don't need your protection!"
"As for protecting the dignity of Martial Cultivator, you are unworthy!"
Zou Jiuzhou laughed. His hoarse voice was filled with coldness and indifference.
"I am not worthy? The Secret Alliance that you painstakingly built up with all your effort is suitable for that? "
"Do you believe that I can turn the fruit of your painstaking efforts into dust?"
Ye Lingtian shook his head: "I don't believe it."
"The wheels of history roll forward, and anyone who tries to obstruct progress will be crushed under the wheels."
As for Ye Lingtian's judgement, Zou Jiuzhou was laughing maniacally towards the sky.
"Ye Lingtian, oh Ye Lingtian, you're so ridiculous!"
"The moving wheels? Don't shout the slogan of fake big sky there. If it really is the wheel of history, Secret Alliance leaving you would still work very well. "
"What about reality? If I leave you, would Secret Alliance dare to reach out to the Venerable One?"
"Humans cherish their lives. A Venerable One can't subdue your will, but he can destroy your desires!"
The azure straight line appeared once again on the blade. Ye Lingtian faced the eerie woman standing in the cold wind.
"Stop arguing, let's see the real deal."
Zou Jiuzhou raised his eyebrows: "Why are you so anxious to die?"
"Urging himself to die?"
Ye Lingtian frowned: "If you really want to die, don't tell me you don't even dare to reveal your true face!"
"It's not that I don't dare to reveal my true face, it's just that I want to kill you with ease."
Zou Jiuzhou glanced at the cold light in Ye Lingtian's hand, his eyes full of greed.
"Don't think I didn't see the war in the Wasteland. If you didn't have that blade, you would have already fallen under Ma Qingkong's blade."
Ye Lingtian nodded and praised: "What a great 'Zou Jiuzhou', his scheming is really gloomy!"
"Deceiver me from the Neijiang, and let me kill Zhu Shigui first. At the same time I get the secret key, I can then study that earth-shattering blade."
"In the end, he pretended to be Ling Xi and killed me when I wasn't prepared."
"One stone, three birds, your little scheme is truly ingenious."
Zou Jiuzhou smiled with a hint of pride.
"It is indeed very ingenious. When you killed Zhu Shigui, I thought that the plan has succeeded."
At this point, Zou Jiuzhou's mouth had a hint of regret.
"But you still saw through it, so I'm very curious, what went wrong?"
Seeing Ye Lingtian's sullen face and not saying a word, Zou Jiuzhou shrugged and spread out his hands.
"It's going to be a battle of life and death in a moment's time. Now that I've come to this step, are there any hidden reasons?"
"The key." Ye Lingtian answered concisely.
Key? Zou Jiuzhou frowned, his face was filled with confusion.
"I'm surprised what you can see in the key."
Ye Lingtian looked deeply at Zou Jiuzhou. The emotions in his eyes were very complicated.
"Other than Zhu Shigui's smell, the key also has Ling Xi's smell."
Zou Jiuzhou's eyes widened in realization.
"Amazing. You can even find the scent of it in the key. Your thoughts are indeed very meticulous."
"If I had known this would happen, I would have sprayed the key with perfume."
Zou Jiuzhou pondered over his mistake.
"But you can't be sure that Ling Xi is Zou Jiuzhou based on the taste alone."
"I'm very curious. Just now, during that conversation by the river, when did I expose a flaw?"
Seeing Ye Lingtian frown, Zou Jiuzhou's voice softened.
"To be honest, I have always been very confident in my acting skills."
"If you don't say I understand, then there's a problem in my heart."
Ye Lingtian smiled bitterly as he thought of Zou Jiuzhou's performance.
"Your acting is indeed at the peak of perfection."
"I didn't find anything abnormal about your Gaixia at all. I completely treated you as an ordinary high school student."
"You tricked me from the Neijiang, and even made me take out those two keys, your performance was still very perfect."
"But when I asked if I should call you Ling Xi or Zou Jiuzhou, a flash of surprise passed through your eyes."
"In that moment, I am certain."1
Thinking about the scene just now, Ye Lingtian was a little scared.
"Luckily you buried your sabre under the ground. If you had the sabre in your hand, that would have been the best opportunity for you to make a move."
Zou Jiuzhou laughed heartily.
The Thousand Souls Knife pointed at Ye Lingtian and slowly said: "Just now, I still had the thought of secretly killing you."
"Now that you've changed your mind, how many opponents like you can meet in your lifetime?"
"I do want the blade in your hand. However, since I've killed you in broad daylight, I think it will be beneficial for my comprehension."
Zou Jiuzhou brushed his hair that was lifted up by the cold wind and whispered to Ye Lingtian who was not far away, "If you didn't leave that night, I might not have killed you."
Ye Lingtian twitched his mouth, "Just because you didn't kill me back then doesn't mean that I won't kill you."
"That's right!" The difference in our ideals is too great. This is a barrier that we will never be able to overcome. "
The Thousand Souls Knife shone with a purple light and a cold Qi came out. The blue sky was covered by dark clouds.
Zou Jiuzhou raised his head and looked at the sky. The words that came out of his mouth were a bit erratic.
"If we knew each other, we would have definitely become good friends."
