"At this point, do these things still matter?"

Chapter 598 Last Words (5)

Qin Wu was panting heavily. The battle just now had exceeded Qin Wu's normal strength range, and had already overdrawn his true energy and physical functions for a long time.

I was in a demonic state just now, so I didn't notice this problem. Or rather, the "Qin Wu" just now was only thinking about killing Yuan Hong and started using his body without considering the consequences.

Now that the battle has stopped, Qin Wu can't take it anymore; he suddenly feels completely drained.

Qin Wu, panting heavily and clutching his chest, looked at Yuan Hong and said, "So, you can defeat me as long as you extract my soul!"

Yuan Hong pressed hard against his wound: "I've already said, this issue is no longer important."

Qin Wu: "You clearly have the ability to defeat me, so why are you doing this? You know that doing this will cost you your life. Don't think I don't know. You are using your inner core to sustain your life. To put it bluntly, you are barely clinging to life!"

Upon hearing this, Chang Hao, Zhu Zizhen, and the other six oddballs immediately had tears in their eyes: "Big brother, how could you do this!"

Yuan Hong looked at the group impatiently: "Stop crying! Hold it in!"

Turning to Qin Wu, he said, "In this world, there are four monkeys roaming freely, these four clever monkeys..."

Before Yuan Hong could finish speaking, Qin Wu interrupted him directly: "I know, there are gibbon monkeys, red-bottomed macaques, spiritual stone monkeys, and six-eared macaques!"

Yuan Hong nodded: "You know far more than I imagined. I must say you are a very capable and respectable opponent. There are very few people in the Three Realms who know about the Four Monkeys in this world! I am now beginning to wonder what your background really is."

Qin Wu thought to himself, "You were born in a bad year. Anyone who has seen the episode about the real and fake Monkey King in Journey to the West probably knows about this."

Seeing that Qin Wu had no reaction, Yuan Hong had no choice but to continue, "But what you don't know is that all four of us monkeys have one ability: we know yin and yang, understand human affairs, and can see the past and the future. I had already predicted this outcome long ago."

"Then why did you do this today?" Qin Wu asked meaningfully.

Yuan Hong also looked at Qin Wu with deep eyes: "The Great Dao is fifty, and the Heavenly Evolution is forty-nine, always leaving a glimmer of hope; that is true, but in this great calamity of thirteen thousand five hundred years, who can truly escape it!"

"If I don't die, all seven of us brothers will be doomed! Even if I die today, I might still be able to give my brothers a chance to live!"

Qin Wu: "But this..."

Yuan Hong quickly waved his hand: "Don't say anything more, and don't ask any more questions. This is a secret of heaven, and I can't say too much. You will understand in the future!"

"You've won this fight! From now on, my six brothers are in your care! I don't ask for anything else, just treat them well from now on, and if you have the ability, do your best to protect them. The karmic obstacles I removed for you earlier are just a small compensation from me!"

"If you feel that's not enough, come on, have some more!"

As he spoke, Yuan Hong pulled out a jade slip from who-knows-where!

With a flick of his wrist, he tossed the jade slip to Qin Wu; Qin Wu caught it and looked at Yuan Hong with great confusion.

Just as he was about to ask, Yuan Hong gave him a wink, and Qin Wu immediately understood and quickly put the jade slip away.

He then said to Yuan Hong, "Okay, don't worry, I'll accept this. I'll also take good care of your brother."

Yuan Hong seemed to have finally put his mind at ease, and took a deep breath: "Listen up, brothers, from now on, Qin Wu is your eldest brother! You...you must never...you absolutely must not have any disloyal thoughts..."

Before he could finish speaking, Yuan Hong's head slumped, and he collapsed to the ground, ceasing to breathe.

Upon seeing this, the Six Eccentrics of Meishan rushed over, calling out to their eldest brother in unison, but unfortunately, their eldest brother could no longer hear them.

Qin Wu stood quietly to the side, watching these people, his heart heavy. He hadn't expected these transformed demons to be so loyal and compassionate. In contrast, what about some people today? They probably couldn't even do that. It was truly disheartening!

As Qin Wu watched, he couldn't bear it any longer. He wanted to go forward and persuade her, but before he could even move, he suddenly remembered that Chi Yaotai was still seriously injured and her life was in danger!

Thinking of this, Qin Wu quickly turned around to find the Gao Ming and Gao Jue brothers to check on the situation of the Chi Yao Terrace. However, as soon as he stepped out with his left foot, before he could even step out with his right foot, Qin Wu felt dizzy and the whole world was spinning.

Then everything went black, and I collapsed to the ground with a thud!

In a daze, I seemed to hear someone calling my name beside me, and gradually I went from being surrounded by a group of people to being alone!

Qin Wu slowly opened his eyes, but before they were fully open, he felt a loud slap across his face.

"You little brat, you went out and caused trouble the moment I wasn't looking. I'll teach you a lesson!"

Qin Wu finally snapped out of his daze. He raised his hand to retaliate, but froze as soon as he did: "Master?"

Looking up, he realized he was back at Jiang Ziya's house.

Just a moment ago I was watching the Six Eccentrics of Meishan weep for Yuan Hong on Meishan Mountain, but how did I end up back at Jiang Ziya's house in the blink of an eye?

·· ··Requesting flowers·· ··

Before Qin Wu could react, Jiang Ziya grabbed him by the ear and lifted him up.

"You little brat, I could tell you had a malevolent aura about you, but before I could even deal with it, you ran off and caused trouble for me. Why don't you just fly to the heavens!"

........ ......

Qin Wu covered his ears, crying out in pain, "You have the nerve to say that! If you hadn't been so preoccupied with your master's wife and so focused on going home, you would have made me look for that Prime Minister Bigan... Oh no, where's Prime Minister Bigan?! Did these guys leave Prime Minister Bigan behind on Meishan Mountain?!"

Thinking of this, Qin Wu quickly got up, broke free from Jiang Ziya's hand, and ran towards the door.

But before Qin Wu could take three steps, he collapsed to the ground with a thud once again. Qin Wu was filled with panic: What... what happened to me?

Jiang Ziya looked at Qin Wu with a disappointed expression, but still felt sorry for him and helped him up: "What's wrong? You've been unconscious for three days and three nights. It's no wonder your leg is so weak!"

"Three days and three nights? I've been unconscious for three days and three nights?"

Qin Wu was instantly dumbfounded. Jiang Ziya looked at Qin Wu and said, "Nonsense, you were unconscious for three days, and I watched over you for three whole days. You really don't take this old bone of mine seriously!"

Qin Wu quickly asked again, "What about Chi Yaotai? How is she?"

As soon as Qin Wu finished speaking, Jiang Ziya gave him a sharp rap on the head: "853!" "You little rascal, I've been taking care of you for three whole days, and you don't even bother to show concern for your master. You really have no conscience!"

“Oh dear, Master, you’re a terrestrial immortal, what could possibly happen to you? But Chi Yaotai is a different story. She’s just a woman, and she has no relatives in this place. What else can I do if I don’t care?” Qin Wu said, pleading with Jiang Ziya as he spoke.

Jiang Ziya stroked his beard, clearly quite pleased with the title of "Land Immortal": "You little rascal, at least you can still speak like a human being. Don't worry, it's thanks to your cronies that you came back in time. Junior Brother Baihe hadn't left yet. This old man had to swallow my pride and beg him to help heal Chi Yaotai!"

Qin Wu then patted his chest and said, "That's good, that's good, I'm relieved."

However, Qin Wu immediately asked, "Wait, what about the Six Heroes of Meishan? Have they returned to Meishan with Gao Jue and Gao Ming? Did those guys cause any trouble?"

Upon hearing Qin Wu's words, Jiang Ziya felt his head spin instantly: "How dare you say that? If only they had gone straight back to Meishan! Come, come, come and see your good friends!"

Qin Wu's heart sank. Damn it, the thing he feared most had happened.

The Gao brothers, Gao Ming and Gao Jue, were alright, but the Six Eccentrics of Meishan were a different story. These guys were either wild boars or worms, stubborn oxen or centipedes; not one of them had a good temper.

Even that old goat likes to butt people all the time, and with Yuan Hong around, he's become so lax that he's bound to cause trouble.

Now, judging from Jiang Ziya's tone, this matter is even more certain.

Qin Wu suppressed the agonizing pain in his heart: "Master, just tell me how many people have died. I'm mentally prepared for it!"

Jiang Ziya looked heartbroken: "A dead person? If it's a dead person, that makes things easier. Come and take a look right away!"

As she spoke, she helped Qin Wu to the window. Qin Wu looked out and saw the Six Eccentrics of Meishan and Gao Ming and Gao Jue eating at a table. Good heavens, these guys can really eat! They were eating with their cheeks wide open, their back teeth chattering, their heads down and eyes glazed over. Qin Wu was stunned...

Jiang Ziya pointed at the group of people, his voice trembling: "Originally, after you and Chi Yaotai were brought back by these guys, I told them to go back. But these guys insisted that you were their elder brother, and that wherever you were in 2.2, they would stay there, refusing to return to Meishan!"

Qin Wu stared blankly at these people, thinking to himself, "Are these the Six Eccentrics of Meishan? Something seems off about how we're doing this!"

Jiang Ziya: "I'll keep them, but the problem is these people eat way too much! They don't even have any dietary restrictions. All the money I earned from fortune-telling in Chaoge has gone to their food."

Chapter 601 Mental Breakdown (3)

Qin Wu was both amused and exasperated. These guys were really something else; they had practically driven Old Man Jiang to the brink of collapse.

Indeed, it's no wonder Jiang Ziya was devastated; these guys were either wild boars or oxen, so their appetites were naturally enormous.

Jiang Ziya had painstakingly saved up his retirement money through divination in Chaoge City, and these guys had devoured it all in just a few days. How could he not be devastated?

However, this also reveals a problem: it's time to arrange a place for these people, including Gao Ming, Gao Jue, and the Three-Eyed Jade Toad.

This kind of carefree attitude can't go on forever. Qin Wu is now starting to formulate a grand plan in his mind.

Planned...

"Master, Master, please stop crying! Please stop crying!" Qin Wu quickly comforted Jiang Ziya, otherwise the old man would cry himself to sleep.

Qin Wu: "Master, don't worry, I'll find a way to arrange a place for them right away, but for now, I'd like to take a look at the Chi Yao Terrace first."

Jiang Ziya sighed and said, "Alright, I'll take you to see her first, but let's make it clear beforehand: after you've seen the Jade Terrace, get rid of these freeloaders as soon as possible!"

Qin Wu slapped his thigh: "Okay, it's settled then!"

After discussing it, Jiang Ziya led Qin Wu into the courtyard, intending to cross it and visit Chi Yaotai, the place where Chi Yaotai was staying.

But as soon as Qin Wu appeared in the courtyard, the Six Eccentrics of Meishan and the Gao brothers, who were feasting and drinking there, immediately stood up and bowed to him in unison.

"Big brother!"

Qin Wu: "Get up quickly, get up quickly! I'm injured right now, so it's inconvenient for me to help you up!"

The centipede demon Chang Hao quickly said, "Brother, there's no need to be so polite. From now on, we're brothers, so there's no need to stand on ceremony!"

Qin Wu quickly chimed in, "That's right, from now on we're brothers. It's just a pity about Brother Yuan Hong... Alas, he was a worthy opponent!"

At this moment, the goat spirit Yang Xian stepped forward: "Brother Qin, there's no need to blame yourself. My six brothers and I are not unreasonable people. Moreover, our elder brother Yuan Hong explained the reasons to us beforehand, so we are even less likely to be narrow-minded. It's just... it's just that I miss Brother Yuan Hong a little!"
