Destiny is ashes

Chapter 699 Shadow's Plan

Since returning to Mingjing Sect, Bai Luo has only met his master once.

And since his master's death and disappearance, he has only seen his master three times.

The first time was when his grand-grandmaster True Lord Biying asked him whether his master Su Ran had told him where he was going in the Arctic ice field. Bai Luo knew the answer, but after he answered with a place name, he saw his grand-grandmaster leave in a hurry without saying a single extra word.

The second time was when the master summoned all the uncles and other true disciples of Weichen Peak. The master asked himself haggardly, if the master had fallen, would he be willing to follow the other uncles? And the uncles and uncles also said that they would definitely treat him well and regard him as their own son.

Bai Luo didn't quite remember how he felt at that time. He had already guessed what was going on, so he was silent for a while when he heard the news, and then replied, "Yes, but it's not necessary."

If the master asks him to do so, he will do it. But if there is no request, then he is the disciple of Master Su Ran, and he will practice under this name, become stronger, fight, and then seek revenge.

The master was silent for a while, then said okay.

Then, at the signal of True Lord Biying, Bai Luo left the increasingly strange mountain gate of Mingjing Sect and came to the inconspicuous but well-built Hongta City outside the Mingjing Sect's sphere of influence to serve as the city lord, avoiding the eyes and ears of others.

The third time was when Bai Luo accompanied An Jing back to the gate of Mingjing Sect and was summoned by the master.

"I have found Su Ran's burial place."

When True Lord Biying spoke, Bai Luo could only grit his teeth and clench his fists in silence: "He died at the bottom of the Great Mysterious Condensation Sea in the Arctic Icefield. I found traces of his magical powers. Su Ran was besieged by at least five Shenzang of the same level during his lifetime. There were also many Shenzang ghosts blocking the heaven and earth. In the end, he killed two of them. He is worthy of the sect and my teachings. He is a true good man and a good warrior."

"Now, as Su Ran's only true disciple, Bai Luo, you have to make a choice."

Next, Zhenjun's words became more solemn: "First, you can stay in Mingjing Sect. I will tell you some deeper truths, but next, I have some instructions. If you are unwilling to do them, I will have to erase your memory and throw you into the depths of Chenli."

"Secondly, if you leave Mingjing Sect now, I will give you all the inheritance jade books of our Weichen Peak and all the property left by your master. In name, I will expel you and send you to Yanye Realm in the south of Dachen, where there is a small sect of a friend of my master. I will also change your appearance. From now on, you will hide your real name and practice with a new identity."

As long as one is not hopelessly stupid, anyone can understand the meaning behind these words of True Lord Biying.

"Why, Master?!"

Bai Luo was naturally horrified. He couldn't imagine why Biying, as the True Lord of Manifestation, would make such a decision that was almost like a "last will" and "entrustment of the future" - was the Mingjing Sect going to perish? Was he going to be sent away as a seed of inheritance?

"I am going to do something that will forever be remembered in infamy."

True Lord Biying said calmly: "You also understand that if we rely on our own strength, there are some grudges that we will never have the chance to avenge."

"Your master Su Ran is my disciple who inherited all my teachings. He will surely surpass me in the future. Now that he is dead, my life is coming to an end. There is nothing I can do to make me give in. I don't care about the overall situation. I don't want to think about morality and weighing the pros and cons anymore, so there is no need to persuade me."

"Where are the uncles and uncles?"

Hearing Bai Luo's words, True Lord Biying laughed.

He raised his hand, touched Bai Luo's head, and said with emotion: "Silly child, Su Ran is only your master, and you have only been together for ten years."

"And your uncles and uncles are fellow disciples who have practiced martial arts with your master and have been through life and death together for more than half a century... They are the ones who are truly friends with you and are the ones who want revenge the most."

Bai Luo had no reason to refuse.

But after knowing his master's plan, he wanted to refuse.

This is too crazy. Bai Luo completely understood why Master Biying did not discuss cooperation with other peak masters, because his choice was to dig up the roots of Mingjing Sect, sacrificing one thousand of his own and killing one thousand and two of the enemy! But... this plan, in a sense, can indeed turn around the crisis of Mingjing Sect being spied on by all parties and the building is about to collapse!

"Master."

At the end, Bai Luo only had one last question: "Although I am willing, I still have to say that this is too risky."

"It would have been fine if it was before, but now that we have An Jing in the Mingjing Sect, as long as we wait for him to grow up, then all the problems will be solved, right?"

Biying didn't say anything to shirk responsibility like 'We've waited too long for An Jing to grow up' or 'An Jing's talent is too great and will attract too much attention, which will lead Ming Jing Sect into a more dangerous situation'.

He nodded silently, sighed and said, "Yes, if the normal flow of destiny is followed, he is the son of destiny who was sent by God to my Mingjing Sect to reverse all decline and humiliation and fulfill the duty of revenge."

"If we endure this time, perhaps we can give him a better environment to grow, allowing him to become stronger more smoothly."

"My plan is indeed unfair to him. But I can't give up the opportunity to take revenge with my own hands... I won't give it up to anyone."

"So this time, Bai Luo, you will visit An Jing on behalf of our Weichen Peak and give him some valuable gifts."

So, half a month later, Bai Luo took the air shuttle and arrived at Mingguang Peak.

Compared with the other eight peaks that have long been developed to the extreme, Mingguang Peak today does look relatively simple, but it is surprisingly complete.

Although small, it has all the necessary facilities. It is not a wasteland with only some huts. Now Mingguang Peak has a complete set of facilities - whether it is a single-family house or a martial arts arena; whether it is a library or a alchemy hall, a complete set of facilities that a sect should have are here, and they are by no means shoddy.

"It's really good..."

Looking down from the air shuttle, Bai Luo could see that the entire Mingguang Peak's geomagnetic veins had also been artificially adjusted. The originally rough flow of spiritual evil had now become gentle, and the abundant waves of earth energy were no longer restless, but flowed gently and docilely within the established orbit.

The refined 'Ming Guang Ling Quan' that flowed out from the Ling Sha Lake on the top of the mountain turned into a series of crisscrossing streams, like spider web patterns or water ripples in an array, evenly connecting the arrays of the many pavilions and halls on the entire Ming Guang Peak.

The weather was just right that day, with the sun rising in the east, clouds filling the sky, and the blue light of the lake reflected on the sky, illuminating half of the sky like blue sea waves, which was breathtaking.

"An Jing really put a lot of thought into this."

Mingguang Peak has begun to take shape. Bai Luo also knows that before An Jing came, Mingguang Peak had never been so orderly and prosperous. All the changes happened after his arrival, just like everything around Hongta City was reversed after An Jing arrived.

Because of his personal experience, Bai Luo believed that if it was An Jing, when he grew up, even the decline of the Mingjing Sect would be reversed one day.

But as time goes by, they can neither look forward to nor imagine the future and can only choose to grasp the present.

At this moment, Bai Luo noticed that many air shuttles were gathering from the direction of other peaks, obviously the true teachings from other peaks had also arrived.

"That's fine."

With a sigh, he jumped off the shuttle.

"The true disciple of Weichen Peak, Bai Luo, is here to visit!"
