Wang Wei was silent, but it was an answer in Li Huowang's eyes.
“You used them to test , right?” Li Huowang asked.
Wang Wei took a deep breath, and his expression beca serious as he said, “Little Li, I was your doctor, so I'm familiar with you. I have a thod that will allow you to make full use of your power! I can let you live like a king on both sides!”
Li Huowang shook his head and threw the thesis onto the bed. “I’m sorry, but no. I can’t do it.”
“Are you scared that I might take advantage of you? You're the one who gets to decide what to take from the other side! I can’t force you. Bring a lifespan pill from there, and we'll continue talking”
Li Huowang shook his head once more and explained, “No, I'm saying that I’ve been cured, so I will never have those illusions again.”
“What did you say?” Wang Wei asked blankly when soone tackled him and pinned him to the ground. Wang Wei's hands were cuffed in the blink of an eye, and then he was forced to stand up. It was only then that he saw several scowling guards standing before him, along with a man wearing a white hospital robe. He recognized the latter, as he was none other than Li Huowang’s current doctor, Yi Donglai.
“Doctor Wang, you're sick. You need treatnt,” Li Huowang said calmly.
Li Huowang had told Yi Donglai about his eting with Wang Wei. Since Wang Wei had made use of him, why couldn't he do the sa? There was no reason not to capture Wang Wei, as the latter could kick up a fuss, which would delay Li Huowang's discharge from the hospital.
Wang Wei struggled against the guards holding him down as he glared at Li Huowang. “It’s useless even if you lock up! I'm just a pawn! Your potential is too big, and it cannot be kept a secret!”
The guards dragged Wang Wei outside, leaving Li Huowang and Yi Donglai alone in the room.
“Don't worry; his illness is quite severe, so he's not going to be able to bother you for a while."
“I’m worried about sothing else.”
“Is it your illness? Don’t worry; you've stabilized. Soone else has brought it up to you, but you did not relapse."
“Is that so? Do you really think that I’m fine? How would you explain Bei Feng's words, then? Why do I feel that you've instigated it?” Li Huowang asked Xuan Pin while holding his head made out of lotus root.
Xuan Pin was quiet for a while before responding, “It's because sothing happened, and we need your help.”
“Help? How may I help you? Why are you acting as if I were your Twisted One?” LI Huowang asked.
“There’s no reason to differentiate between ourselves. I am you, and you are . We have the sa Heavenly Dao.”
Li Huowang rubbed his temples; flesh had started growing on his lotus root head.
“The denouent has co. Can’t I even live in peace?”
“You chose this, and my choice is your choice, too, so you should not complain.”
“Fine," Li Huowang said. He sighed in exasperation before asking, "Tell what to do.”
“The Sitting Oblivion Dao has been annihilated, so this is our golden opportunity. I need your help snatching away Yinyang Doulao’s Heavenly Dao of Truth and Lies.”
Li Huowang was outraged. He found the suggestion so absurd that he almost laughed. “You need my help doing that? Pfft! I’m just an ordinary person. How can I snatch those away? How can I help you deal with a Siming with two Heavenly Daos? Also, aren't you responsible for the Heavenly Dao of Bewildernt? Are your hands not full just taking care of your own Heavenly Dao? Why do you need more Heavenly Daos to the extent that you've actually considered robbing a Siming for it? I’m tired... I'm really tired. Can’t I rest for a few years?”
"Xuan Pin" replied, “I’m not the one seeking trouble here; I am simply trying to protect myself. Don’t forget that helping equals helping yourself. If anything were to happen to , what had happened would change.”
“Protect?” Li Huowang was shocked. He stared at "Xuan Pin," who was actually Ji Zai, and asked nervously, “Did sothing happen at Baiyu Capital? No, even if sothing had happened, how could that event be significant enough to harm you—a Siming?”
“You'll know the answer if you think about the reason why the Surveillance Bureau wanted the Sacred Mountain Ghost Eye. You should also think about why Shai Zi even ca up with such a complicated plan to obtain the Dragon Vein. Sothing major is happening, and they can feel it. How about you? Don't tell that you don't feel anything.”
Li Huowang was confused, and he sat down silently, pondering everything that had happened to him. He had the feeling that sothing major was going down, but he thought that it was none of his business.
He thought that even if the heavens ended up collapsing, soone would be there to hold it up.
However, Li Huowang couldn't have imagined that his future self would be the figure who'd end up protecting everyone.
“Is it God Yu’er?” Li Huowang asked, recalling the ruined Qi Kingdom and Qiu Chibao’s illusion, whose head was covered with a white cloth.
It was all God Yu'er's fault, along with the Sun-Devouring Heavenly Dog in the Qi Kingdom, which had devoured half of the sun.
“If it were just God Yu’er, it would be easy to handle,” Ji Zai said, and his words made Li Huowang feel afraid of what was to co.
“Who could it be other than God Yu’er? Who are they, where did they co from, and what do they want?”
“I can’t tell you that, as they'll imdiately learn of your existence the mont you learn of their existence. In addition, even your future self did not tell your present self.”
Li Huowang was confused; he had no idea what Ji Zai was talking about.
“You want to help you snatch Yinyang Doulao's Heavenly Daos, but you haven’t told how to do that. What do I need to do?”
“You can probably do it through Bei Feng. Find Bei Feng and the Doulao's Twisted Dao. Kill them and leave the rest to ,” said "Xuan Pin.” Monts later, his figure started to crumble like sand.
“What?! You could have told that earlier! The Surveillance Bureau has just captured Bei Feng! They are never going to let make contact with Bei Feng!”
Ji Zai ignored Li Huowang and simply disappeared into nothingness.
Frustrated, Li Huowang sprawled out on the bed. He closed his eyes and tried to sleep. He didn’t want to do anything, but he understood that he had to do it.
It was going to affect his future self and the future of the Liang Kingdom.
Regardless of what was to co, becoming even stronger would not hurt him at all.
Li Huowang knew that he could end up failing to save everyone, but he wanted to save his loved ones, at the very least.
“Ji Zai can’t be trusted. I need to think of a way myself…” Li Huowang muttered to himself.
Almost no one knew what happened on this fateful night, as everyone was in the common area for New Year's Eve. In other words, they had no idea what had transpired in the ward.
The higher-ups in the hospital were the only ones aware of what had transpired, and they ended up removing Li Huowang's restraints.
Li Huowang could move freely now!
Sun Xiaoqin was happy but for a different reason.
