1182 Night Guardian Is Dead 1
Boom!
Thunder Calamity struck again.
A bolt of lightning struck Xu Xiaoshou's brain.
Although the Night Guardian did not speak much, how could he not understand the hidden meaning behind his words?
"So, the power of the Higher Void at that time was just...the power of Ghost Beast without its scent?" Xu Xiaoshou felt that the secret he obtained from the Night Guardian was even more exaggerated than what the Big Mouth of Fringe Moon Immortal City had said!
He thought of Lu Ke.
What was she like?
Was she just a Ghost Beast host body or something similar to the Night Guardian?
"Maybe." The Night Guardian smiled noncommittally. "Just as you said, you need to find some answers yourself, especially answers for questions like these..."
He suddenly looked up at the thunder at the top of the deep sea, and determination appeared in his eyes.
"I will go and find it!"
The thunder exploded again, and the expressions on their faces became more apparent.
"It hurts..."
Xu Xiaoshou held his bloody head and couldn't let it go for a long time.
He only felt that the Thunder Calamity brought pain, which was even worse than the words from the Night Guardian.
It was too much!
The Holy Divine Palace had specially established a red-clothed organization, and there was also a white-clothed organization.
Of these two large organizations, one focused on killing Ghost Beasts and the other on killing the dark criminals.
In the end, the Holy Divine Palace itself was still using the Ghost Beast to strip its ability and "parasitize" it onto the spiritual cultivator?
How was this method different from the brutal Ghost Beast host body they mentioned?
"No wonder..."
Xu Xiaoshou suddenly thought of many things.
He recalled what Caramel had said when she handed over the Ghost Beast contract to him in the White Cave.
He also thought of how Bazhun'an, a respected figure, had become the leader of the dark faction and was bound to overthrow the rule of the Holy Divine Palace.
At the same time, the "Qiu Long Words" from Elder Sang of Tiansang Spirit Palace became more transparent.
"When a stone is thrown into the lake, are the ripples in the lake the ripples of the lake itself, or are ripples created because the heavens are watching?"
In the same way...
"When the part of the sky that trapped the world is pierced through, is it because man overcomes the heavens, or is there a heaven beyond the heavens, and what you see after defying the heavens is what the heavens beyond the heavens want you to see?"
"The truth that I used all my strength to find" and "the self-righteous truth that I wanted to find" were two completely different things.
Xu Xiaoshou could not calm down from what Night Guardian had said.
He thought of everything that had happened in the Holy Divine Palace.
It could not be denied that such a powerful faction on the continent gave all the spiritual cultivators in the five regions and all the ordinary people in the secular world mighty protection.
Without them, the world would be in chaos.
The dark forces of various factions, the Ghost Beasts, the power rivalry, and people living in poverty...all of these could be imagined.
Therefore, from the perspective of the Night Guardian, Elder Sang's "Qiu Long Words," what he saw and questioned about the Holy Divine Palace was his version of the story.
Perhaps the most righteous Holy Divine Palace also had their unspeakable secrets?
Xu Xiaoshou was already confused by the world of chess. He couldn't believe anything anyone said.
Bazhun'an had his version of the story.
The Holy Divine Palace also had its version.
Both sides had their versions of the story. They were both "righteous" and "radical" but "reasonable" at the same time.
"The struggle for the Great Path..."
Xu Xiaoshou thought of this long-lost phrase.
Perhaps what everyone was fighting for was the so-called right to write history.
The answer...returning to the words of the Night Guardian, Xu Xiaoshou thought about it and felt that compared to the utterly righteous Night Guardian before, he had become calmer. However, he was filled with hostility and was even more dangerous.
"How do you want to find the answer...or rather, how do you want to do it?" Xu Xiaoshou thought about the words and added, "What I mean is, what do you plan to do next?"
The Night Guardian raised his eyes silently and looked at the Thunder calamity descending from the sky. After taking the Thunder Calamity head-on, his body had only slight injuries. He smiled and said, "Survive the Thunder Calamity."
Xu Xiaoshou was again struck until his flesh was split open, and he grimaced in pain.
He felt that perhaps the Thunder Calamity was angry. It realized that two people in the deep sea were ignoring it and talking to each other. Therefore, the lightning that struck was more potent than the one before.
"What happens after you pass the Thunder Calamity?" Xu Xiaoshou asked again.
He compared the performance of the night guardian with his performance under the Thunder Calamity. He felt that the Night Guardian might have a 70% chance of passing the Thunder Calamity in his current state.
This was if no other accidents took place.
"One step at a time," the Night Guardian looked at Xu Xiaoshou's bloody appearance. He did not understand why this guy insisted on talking to him during the Thunder Calamity.
Everything could be discussed after the Thunder Calamity ends, couldn't it?
Facing other people, the Night Guardian might hide, counterattack, and kill to silence them.
But in the face of Xu Xiaoshou, the Night Guardian would never do that!
"..." Xu Xiaoshou was silent.
He could hear the strong determination in the Night Guardian's words.
This confidence and certainty differed from when he was part of the red-clothed organisation.
At that time, the Night Guardian was merely following orders. But now, he seemed to have an exact target, and because of this, he might go to the other extreme.
