Chapter 356: Grandpa Is Here! _2
"Did he suddenly lose control because you were behind it?"
"Behind it? I don't like that term."
The woman did not stop her movements; instead, a layer of golden light surrounded her.
She looked at Amina, as if imparting a lesson, and said calmly:
"I am merely fulfilling Xiao Huating's past life's obsession.
"You might not be aware, the civilization you are facing was one step away from collective ascension back in the day, and all of this was the assist left by that cultivator.
"But we are ultimately not cultivators.
"Our spiritual energy technology has advanced highly, but we have never been able to step into a more advanced world. Ultimately, our civilization gradually collapsed under the river of time, and this became our only regret.
"I, this remaining lonely soul, am unwilling to accept this."
Amina responded coldly, "And what does this have to do with you plotting against Wang Zheng now?"
She instead gripped a dagger.
The woman looked at the tip of the dagger and spoke calmly:
"I do not wish to lie to you, because you are one of the candidates to inherit this civilization.
"Right now, I just stirred up Wang Zheng's demon thoughts, putting him into a certain state of losing control. In fact, this is also helping him.
"I have already guided Xiao Huating, and now she is the only antidote to saving Wang Zheng. The offsetting of divinity and demonic nature, the reconciliation of redemption and slaughter, both of them will enter a new stage of life.
"At the same time, Xiao Huating admires him greatly. They can become partners, cultivate together, and then ascend to higher planes together. Our civilization's regret will thus be remedied.
"Do you understand?"
"Sorry, I cannot understand."
Amina stated calmly:
"I do not think spirit cultivators are inferior to cultivators."
"Spirit cultivators are merely the product of our compromise with time."
"Alright, but have you asked Wang Zheng?"
Amina frowned and said:
"Plotting against him like this will definitely have the opposite effect; he will come to despise you and Gao Huating.
"I know him well, he is definitely..."
"Do you really know him?" the woman countered.
Amina paused.
Suddenly, she thought of Wang Jixuan looking at her with a terrifying gaze, like a hunter, in the cafeteria of the Space Fortress.
The woman continued in a calm tone:
"Every human and sapient life form basically has three faces: etiquette and morals suppressing beastly nature, cowardice and inferiority suppressing divinity, environment and survival guiding human nature.
"Now I have merely triggered his long-accumulated demon thoughts, allowing him to release his repressed self.
"Is this not also his true self?"
Amina lightly frowned.
The woman continued: "You actually cannot imagine how deeply I understand him. Wang Zheng's real name is Wang Jixuan, Jixuan is his Daoist name. His master believed he enjoyed artifact refining and mechanical skills, hoping he could master cunning and profound skills to become a grandmaster. His greatest regret before coming to this world, of course, was failing to pass the ascension heavenly tribulation, followed by failing to cherish the present and the people before him, as reclusive cultivation caused him to miss out on a few confidants and worldly pleasures."
"How do you know these things?" Amina frowned and asked.
The woman just shook her head slightly: "So, Amina, Wang Zheng as a cultivator is far more complex than you imagine, and his cultivation was full of unstable factors. I am also helping him."
"But I think, you should stop now."
"You cannot stop me."
"But I must try..."
Amina suddenly lunged forward, but before her slender figure could unfold, a beam of golden light shot from deep within the hall, striking her form.
Amina's vision blurred, and then she fell into a series of teleportation passages.
By the time she regained control over her body, she was already on the surface.
...
Amina recounted her experience, and Wang Jixuan remained silent. Find thе trаnslаtiоn оn МV&LЕМРYR.
He was still pursuing that Pillar Blade Beast, the cracks on the Alien Soul were becoming more apparent.
After a full three to four minutes...
"Are you sure?"
"Yes," Amina inquired, "Is what she said true? Wang Jixuan, about those confidants."
Master Wang was truly bewildered now.
But since his origins were already revealed, there was no need to hide it from Amina.
This couldn't possibly bring any disaster to his sect, Wangxian Valley, it was just a little secret of his.
His true secret was [being a cultivator], though this was almost publicly known already.
"Hmm, what she said is indeed my past."
Wang Jixuan couldn't help but curse.
Wuliang, that Heavenly Venerable.
What was with that old witch? Did she read his memories? Or is his residual soul's reincarnation related to the relics of this ancient civilization?
It's bad.
Wang Jixuan suddenly realized that no matter what, he has to visit the ancient civilization.
Once curiosity is piqued, even cultivation would become uneasy.
"What exactly is going on?" Amina transmitted sound and asked.
"I'm not sure," Wang Jixuan suddenly chuckled, "Whatever demons or ghosts, I'll have to face them; however, this needn't be rushed, I'll wait until I'm fully prepared."
His tone shifted, carrying a hint of annoyance:
"That old witch!
"Daring to scheme against this poor Daoist!
"Previously using continuous devil skills left hidden dangers, but I kept suppressing them well, yet this time, I suddenly lost control, and the first time it happened was actually when facing you.
"I even thought my true nature was that of a lecher! Not even sparing you!"
Amina clicked her tongue: "It's not that far off, actually."
"Lust is human nature, but it must be pursued with the Tao."
Master Wang sighed softly:
