Chapter 416: The Nine-Life Demon Fox also has serious moments
Lu Chengwen walked over, helped Qi Meishao stand up, wiped away her tears.
"You... stop crying, I know you weren't willing... this matter, I also didn't..."
Qi Meishao burst into laughter: "Silly, where did I say I wasn't willing? I just..."
Qi Meishao bit her lip and finally started crying: "I'm just happy!"
Lu Chengwen held Qi Meishao, looking utterly confused.
[No way!? This isn't right!]
[Didn't she like Long Aotian!? This... after a few days with me down there, she likes me?]
[Nuwa descendant and Taigu Yuan Shen... are they really that compatible?]
Lu Chengwen looked at Ming Disha. Ming Disha played with his beard, nodding at Lu Chengwen with satisfaction:
"Kid, cry and thank me! Nuwa descendant and Taigu Yuan Shen were originally a pair, shouldn't have been separated."
"In the vast sea of people, you were always searching for each other. What Luo Shiyin, what Zhuge Xiaohua, how can they compare to this fragrance? Can't even choose women properly. You, without Shishu, would just take detours!"
Lu Chengwen gently pushed Qi Meishao away a little: "You... are willing to follow me?"
Qi Meishao smiled through her tears: "Otherwise? Been... completely messed up... by you, who else can I go to?"
Ming Disha said: "Chengwen, the blood contract within your Dantian, try refining it yourself. It might take some time; the key is your foundation is too poor. Smoking, drinking, perming hair, and indeed entering Shangsimen too late. Ai, if only you had been with me since childhood."
Ming Disha was very satisfied with his masterpiece.
"See! Still hate me now? Obediently come over, kowtow to me a few times too! You should."
Lu Chengwen looked at him: "Old man, have some face!"
"Hey! How dare you talk like that, kid?"
Lu Chengwen said: "The only reason I haven't beaten you up is because I can't beat you, understand?"
"Ai, you traitorous thing who betrays master and ancestors! I worked hard to find you a girl, I worked hard to imprison you, I worked hard to torture you, I worked hard..."
"Do you believe I'll work hard to kill you?"
"Fine, fine, fine, good deeds are hard to do, hard to be a good person. You, just like your Shifu, your way of seeing the world is rigid. Always don't want to hurt this one, want to protect that one too. Do you really think you're saviors? You don't have Long Aotian's ruthlessness, that decisiveness to go all out. You'll suffer losses later, hey, you just watch."
Lu Chengwen thought:
[I just damn well can't beat you!]
[If you had told me these things earlier, I could have pursued the girl myself, at least there would have been a romantic process!]
[At least could have given the girl a beautiful memory! At least it would have been mutual between both parties, it would have been... moving towards each other.]
[Now everything is messed up by you! I will live with this shadow for the rest of my life. Thank you? I thank your eight generations of ancestors!]
Ming Disha stood up: "It's a few mountains from here to there. You two head back yourselves."
Lu Chengwen said suspiciously: "You... are letting us go?"
"Otherwise? Keep you here to anger me? Curse me? Damn me?"
Ming Disha softened his tone: "I sensed it, Shixiong is back."
"Shifu!?"
Lu Chengwen suddenly felt confidence well up inside, wishing he could immediately fly to his Shifu's side.
Then he felt something was wrong: "Wait, weren't you looking for my Shifu... for revenge? You're not going? Ah! I understand!"
Lu Chengwen smiled and said: "Scared, right? Know you can't beat my Shifu, right?"
Ming Disha appeared particularly serious: "No, it's after meeting you, figuring out your trump cards, I suddenly understood something."
Ming Disha suddenly becoming serious made Lu Chengwen very surprised.
[Holy crap, this grandson suddenly got serious?]
Ming Disha stared at Lu Chengwen, his pupils radiating a gravity and solemnity that made Lu Chengwen feel incredibly serious.
"Shifu was right."
"Ah?"
"Dashixiong wasn't wrong either."
Ming Disha said: "The Heavenly Tribulation is really coming."
Lu Chengwen panicked slightly: "Hey hey hey, stop kidding, don't scare me! You fellow, just love to joke! Haha, think I'll be scared of you? Don't think you can intimidate me just by using that tone and look! I'm a rich man, seen plenty of big scenes!"
Ignoring Lu Chengwen's bluster.
Ming Disha's eyelids drooped, looking at the ground.
"I've been misunderstanding Shifu, misunderstanding Dashixiong... The Wu Laoweng didn't miscalculate, rather, they calculated wrongly."
"Guess if I understood that?"
Ming Disha looked at Lu Chengwen: "Otherwise, why do you think I went through so much trouble, did such shameless things, and even had to listen to your bed sounds every day?"
Lu Chengwen said: "So, you also know what you did wasn't human, right?"
"Shixiong wouldn't do it this way. He always believed the world's operation shouldn't be interfered with too much by humans. His philosophy is to let you walk all paths yourself. The ninety-nine eighty-one tribulations must be overcome by you personally. Too much interference, things will deform, the Heavenly Dao will deviate... fate will change."
"But I am different from him. I feel if more can be done, more should be done. Even if not understood by the world, even if against morality and conscience. Because who knows, doing just a little bit less, might mean all future developments will completely deform..."
"Chengwen, if the Heavenly Tribulation is truly approaching, the time left for you won't be much."
Lu Chengwen's eyes glazed over, staring blankly at him: "Wow you... you're suddenly so serious... strangely... scary. Can you smile?"
Ming Disha smiled and stood up.
He walked outside, stood at the doorway.
A beam of light descended from the sky, striking him through the gap between two large trees.
For some reason, at that moment, Lu Chengwen felt this person was damn handsome!
Ming Disha muttered: "So, from Shifu, to the three of us, we are all funerary objects for the Heavenly Dao... Our fates were calculated accurately by Shifu from the very beginning."
"His old self knew everything, but couldn't say anything. If said, it would change."
"Our lives... hehe, how laughable?"
"No, not laughable."
Ming Disha turned his head, looking at Lu Chengwen.
Lu Chengwen was stunned, holding Qi Meishao, trembling all over.
Because he clearly saw that madman, that scum, that degenerate...
His face was full of tears.
"Ahahahaha..."
Ming Disha suddenly threw his head back and laughed loudly, laughing madly, laughing desolately.
Laughing made Lu Chengwen's hair stand on end, suspecting he might go crazy at any moment, instinctively holding Qi Meishao tighter.
"To hell with your Heavenly Tribulation! Ruined my Shifu's life! Ruined my Dashixiong's, junior Shimei's lives! Now you finally want to reveal yourself, is that it?"
"Come on! Laozi isn't afraid of you!"
"Shifu said, the Yuan Shen lineage is the highest glory! I'll do the dirty work! I'll spill the black blood! Let the heavens strike me with lightning!"
"Dashixiong follows heaven's will, I will defy heaven's way!"
Finished speaking, he pointed domineeringly at Lu Chengwen: "The chosen one has taken his place! The four pillars of heaven have shifted! He is your nemesis! You are the world's calamity, he is your calamity!"
Ming Disha shouted madly.
Lu Chengwen said cautiously: "Shishu, maybe be a bit more polite to Heaven, don't casually make decisions for me, I haven't decided yet!"
Ming Disha wiped away his tears with one hand, leaped up.
His last words drifted from the sky: "Shizhi, you remember this for me, the Kingly Way and the Hegemon's Way, they are both damn Ways! Your Way is your Way..."
Lu Chengwen cupped one hand around his mouth to amplify his voice, the other hand still holding Qi Meishao's soft small hand, jumped up and roared: "I don't understand a damn thing!"
...
Ming Disha left.
The two who hated him to the bone before were left with very complicated feelings by this final scene.
Lu Chengwen stood stunned on the spot for a long time, gritted his teeth and cursed: "Where the hell is there a single normal person?"
Qi Meishao seemed thoughtful: "The chosen one... huh..."
She looked up at Lu Chengwen: "I believe it."
"Believe what?" Lu Chengwen said: "He's crazy, talking nonsense! The chosen one is Long Aotian, he should be the one saving the world! Aiya, you wouldn't understand even if I told you."
"Think about it, weren't you four originally with my Dashixiong, right?"
"My Dashixiong fell, I followed. Otherwise, they would only have my Dashixiong as a disciple!"
"The one with Wang Ba Zhi Qi is also my Dashixiong!"
"Even now, if I were brought down by Long Aotian, bankrupted and reduced to the streets, Ming Disha would still lock you two down there... you wouldn't even need locking up, you could justifiably dual cultivate!"
"It was me who broke all balance, it was me who messed everything up! I don't belong to this world at all, this world damn well shouldn't have me, you know?"
Qi Meishao looked at Lu Chengwen, neither scared nor nervous, nor eager to state her position.
Only after Lu Chengwen finished venting his temper.
She gently wiped the sweat beads from Lu Chengwen's temple: "Don't be afraid, no matter what happens, I will accompany you."
"Me afraid!?" Lu Chengwen deliberately shouted loudly: "What do I have to fear!? Laozi is worth hundreds of billions! The future income from the shantytown is also in the hundreds of billions level, me afraid!?"
Lu Chengwen roared towards the sky where Ming Disha flew away: "I fear your grandma's grandson! Laozi isn't afraid of you! Saving the world, you damn well don't look for Long Aotian, you damn well look for me! Does it concern me, I'm just a delivery guy!"
"Catching an honest person and bullying them to death..."
Lu Chengwen muttered: "Bastard turtle eggs... bunch of..."
Qi Meishao's eyes moistened: "Actually, seeing you know fear makes me quite happy."
Lu Chengwen finished venting, walked to a large tree, leaned against the trunk, slid down to sit on the ground.
Tilted his head, staring blankly.
Qi Meishao didn't make a sound, just silently walked over and sat beside him, turned her head to look at him.
After a long time, she said cautiously: "Are you angry?"
Lu Chengwen didn't move: "No."
"Oh."
Qi Meishao bit her lip: "If you're unhappy, you can take it out on me."
Lu Chengwen turned his head: "What are you talking about?"
"I just..." Qi Meishao lowered her head: "I want to be useful to you. Seeing you unhappy makes me sad. So... if you... want to lose your temper, you can direct it at me... however you want... is fine."
Finally, her voice was almost only audible to herself.
