238: Chapter 99: The Defector of the Demon Sect 238: Chapter 99: The Defector of the Demon Sect After pointing out each other’s true identities and real intentions, the two of them exchanged a smile.
But afterwards, Mingguang Dust’s expression turned serious, “Indeed, a clever child of the Demon Sect…
Aren’t you afraid I might kill you?”
As he finished speaking, the True Master of the Divine Repository opened his eyes.
As the golden Six Yang Force gathered in his pupils, rays like the morning sun’s evil qi and killing intent locked onto An Jing.
anwhile, the sunlight that shone through the snow clouds and frost took on an indescribable sharpness, like knives and swords sweeping over the young man’s clothing, causing it to rip open.
However, as the blade passed over the leather, there was no sound of it cutting, prompting the True Master of the Divine Repository to let out a soft “hmm” of appreciation, “Interesting.”
“Your thod of Body Refinent is quite exquisite.
Which Dharma Gate did you exchange for it?”
“I have an exceptional talent.” Facing the power of the Divine Repository, An Jing remained unruffled, smoothing over his torn clothes sowhat, “If True Person rely wished to tell this joke that compelled to change my clothes, then there was no need.”
“Exchange?
What do you an by that?
To tell the truth, I didn’t understand the ‘Endless Heavens’ you ntioned just now.”
“Hmm?”
Even soone as composed as Mingguang Dust appeared slightly moved.
He looked at An Jing incredulously, “You don’t know Endless Heavens?
You didn’t exchange?”
“Wait…
then how could you hear the three words ‘Endless Heavens’?”
In that mont, An Jing could sense that Mingguang Dust had released a killing intent far heavier and more serious than before.
What did this an?
The initial killing intent released by Mingguang Dust was real; he truly wanted to ‘kill’ him.
That was not at all surprising.
Not only because An Jing was from the Demon Sect, but also because he had been embroiled in You Ruhui’s affairs…
Regardless of the relationship between King Jing and this True Master from the Divine Repository, their plans surely did not include a spot for a defector from the Heaven’s Will Demon Sect.
But, An Jing was also clear that the other party would not really do anything to him.
After all, You Ruhui was watching right behind them, and if Mingguang Dust was truly a friend of King Jing, he would at least consider the opinions of King Jing’s daughter.
But now, unlike the initial gentle probing, Mingguang Dust truly harbored a montary killing intent.
However, this killing intent ca quickly and left just as swiftly.
Mingguang Dust furrowed his brows and pondered, “Since you rember these three words, it proves you indeed have a connection with Endless Heavens…
Hmm, could it be that I am your connection?
Or is it sothing in the future?”
“Never mind.”
He shook his head, “In any case, you’ll understand eventually.”
“True Person, if you wanted to kill , you would have had the chance long ago.”
Finding Mingguang Dust’s attitude to have beco friendlier than before, An Jing was puzzled but didn’t mind.
He calmly looked at the other person, “You indeed thought about killing , but since you didn’t at that ti…
it’s even less likely now.”
With blinding Spiritual Light, his eyes also emitted Spiritual Light, spontaneously shifting into True Spirit Eyes to et the other’s gaze, “Now, I’d like to ask.”
“Why did you entertain the thought of killing ?”
“You’ve developed Spiritual Pupils in just a few days…
Are you really not from Endless Heavens?” Mingguang Dust scrutinized An Jing seriously, nodding slightly as an apology, “Forgive , it was just a misunderstanding.
As for Endless Heavens, you needn’t ponder over it, you will understand later.
“As for probing, generally speaking, it was to see your ttle.
I must say, it’s even better than I expected.
“It’s not that I’m making excuses for myself, but you must know, among the defectors from the Heaven’s Will Demon Sect, one third are spies, one third are Dark Hands, and one third will eventually return to the Demon Sect.”
“Only one out of ten truly wants to leave, and this doesn’t an those defectors are good people; they commit monstrous cris and create chaos after leaving the Demon Sect.”
Mingguang Dust shook his head, “The ‘great achievents’ made by historical defectors from the Demon Sect really can’t but make cautious, and the fact that they all eventually return to the Demon Sect makes it seem like a ritual of ‘departure and return’.”
“Not to ntion, your escape was just ‘too perfect’, and it happened exactly with that old lady…”
——Ah?
Are all the defectors from my Demon Sect like this?
An Jing wasn’t surprised by Mingguang Dust’s probing; he had anticipated it and even felt that the other party had been too lenient in their approach.
What really made it hard for him to keep a straight face was the Demon Sect’s fine tradition: “I wondered why everyone, including the Vice Envoy of dicine and anyone else, showed no reaction to my defection.
Even Granny Huai acted as if it was perfectly normal…”
“So the ‘seniors’ before were all like this?
Your Demon Sect’s fine tradition is really…”
As for Endless Heavens, An Jing could guess, from Subdue Evil’s words, that it must be an organization related to the ‘Great Void Shuttle’?
Mingguang Dust had no reason to lie to him; since he said that An Jing would know in the future, there was no rush for the ti being.
“But you are different,” An Jing realized, as Mingguang Dust slightly shook his head, reflecting, “I first noticed you when you tornted that Constable Chen to death.”
“At that ti, I thought, even if the victim was a mber of the True Demon Sect, the way you tornted him to death couldn’t possibly be a good thing, especially since it seed driven by personal revenge, pure Demon Sect ntality.”
“However, later on, when I heard about you slaying the Demon Soldiers and rescuing many captives, I realized that I was wrong; maybe you weren’t acting out of personal grudge.”
“Being quite interested in you, I observed you carefully for a while…
and it was only now that I discovered you are the ‘Little Leader’ who escaped from Hanging Fate Manor.”
“An Jing…”
Murmuring the na, Mingguang Dust said gravely, “I don’t doubt your character.
Based on what those rescued Children of Calamity said, and what I saw with my own eyes in Ming City, I can assert that you are different from those defectors whose minds have long been twisted.”
“At that ti, I was also curious as to where you got the strength to escape from Hanging Fate Manor.”
“But now, I just want to know, what are your plans for the future, being involved in the chaos of Da Chen’s Emperor’s Blood?”
“Isn’t that obvious?
Finding my parents,” An Jing replied, sowhat puzzled, “You Ruhui has t you already, so next she’s definitely going to follow the plan left by her father, King Jing.”
“The sooner you guys turn Da Chen’s and the Demon Sect’s attention away from all this ss, the easier it will be for to quickly return to Hanhai alone.”
——Unlike You Ruhui, my parents are still alive.
I need to find them and make sure they’re settled before I can consider my future plans, right?
An Jing had so emotional intelligence and wouldn’t say the above out loud, but his aning was clear enough.
Mingguang Dust remained silent.
“You really are…
different.”
After a long ti, the Divine Repository True Person shook his head and sighed, expressing his emotions, “Your way of thinking is too normal, entirely that of an upright and benevolent young man who despises evil as one would an enemy.”
“So it’s abnormal—after going through so much, through the Frost Calamity and the Heaven’s Will Demon Sect, you still value life so much and haven’t forgotten your friends and family…
It’s truly rare.”
“But forgive my bluntness, soone with a Fate Pattern like yours usually has a trendous Evil Qi, and generally speaking…
the situation with your parents might not be too good.”
“Hmm.” An Jing didn’t care about Mingguang Dust’s frankness, and nodded, saying, “I know about Mars Guarding Heart; it wouldn’t be strange if my parents were gone.”
“My father is most likely dead, but I think my mother might still be alive.
I need to go find her.”
He spoke calmly, as if it were a matter of course, “It’s a promise I made.”
Having said this, An Jing changed the topic.
He’d been questioned by Mingguang Dust all this ti, but now he had a question of his own: “Now, returning to the matter of exterminating Hanging Fate Manor, it shouldn’t be the task for a Divine Repository True Person from Dust Li…
True Master Mysterious Mirror, may I know who hired you to co here?”
It was a topic that shouldn’t have been addressed, but Mingguang Dust looked at An Jing, and considering his relationship with Gu Yeqi and others, he nodded and said, “The Gu Family.”
“The Gu Family of Hanhai.”
