The little ghost has always been arrogant. Although it would occasionally rub against her secretly, that was when she wasn't paying attention or when there were no other friends around. Now that it was asking her so actively, Ji Wushuang would certainly not refuse!

"Okay."

Little Ghost: “Ah?”

"What's wrong? Didn't you say you wanted me to take them in temporarily?"

"Yes, but you're not afraid of trouble..."

"Oh, oh, oh, as long as the Jiao Clan doesn't clamor to sign a contract with me, I have no problem. During this period, I can let them stay in the small world temporarily."

Ji Wushuang didn't look down on the Jiao clan, she simply didn't want to play the game. The job of a master of playing the game was not a human job, it was exhausting both mentally and physically.

If it were earlier, Ji Wushuang would not be able to settle the Jiao clan, but now with the blessing of the Lingyun Pearl, Ji Wushuang's small world has become very complete and non-contractors can also enter.

If I have to say, it is like a special secret realm existing in some mysterious area.

"Great! Thank you, Master!"

The little ghost was so happy that he couldn't help but circle around Ji Wushuang's neck several times and rub against him hard.

Its scales exuded a refreshing coolness, and it felt like a piece of jade when gently pressed against the cheek. Ji Wushuang was so happy that she couldn't help but rub it back.

Of course it smells furry!

But the scales are pretty good too!

After sucking enough from the cubs, Ji Wushuang coughed lightly and said, "Don't worry, as long as you are willing to accept them, Master, I will accept them."

After arriving at the Jiao tribe's territory, Ji Wushuang found that the little ghost was not in a good mood.

Not only did it not feel "happy" to return to its clan territory, it didn't even feel any "attachment" to it. Ji Wushuang guessed that something might have happened between it and the Jiao clan, but since the little ghost didn't say anything, Ji Wushuang wouldn't ask.

Out of respect for the little ghost, she did not let the Evolution Chart make any calculations.

Everything revolves around the little devil.

The little ghost is her important partner and family member. She will not betray her family just because she sympathizes with the Jiao clan's plight.

The little ghost's eyes flickered, and his mood darkened. "You, you knew everything? So when Jiao Zu asked to follow you, you refused?"

Ji Wushuang shook his head: "I don't know, but I can feel that you are unhappy. If you are unhappy, you must have your reasons. I will respect you."

The little ghost stared blankly at Ji Wushuang, its eyes quietly shrouded in mist. It approached Ji Wushuang again and said in a muffled voice, "Master... the Jiaozu and the other Jiao gods... they are all much more powerful than me. If you let them follow you, your power will be unprecedentedly strong... You can agree to this."

"Alright, idiot." Ji Wushuang poked the little ghost's head with his fingertips. "Your master is so powerful that he doesn't need any external force. So whatever you decide is fine. I'll listen to you."

The kid nodded.

After a long silence, the little ghost left Ji Wushuang's body and slowly flew in front of Jiao Zu. He looked up at it, and the oppressive feeling that came from his soul made every scale of the little ghost fragile, as if it could turn into blood mist in an instant if the other party wanted...

This is the absolutely powerful oppression that comes from the soul and blood.

Jiao Zu also looked at the little ghost with a complicated look, and after a while he said, "Why are you willing to help us?"

The kid gritted his teeth, tried to raise his eyes to prevent himself from retreating, and asked the doubts in his heart.

"The Jiao Clan... Why didn't the Jiao Clan expel us, the Ghost Jiao lineage? Was it because we practice the Underworld? But this kind of thing isn't something we can decide on our own, so why did they exile us?"

The little ghost had been wandering around as an egg for too long, and it was not completely without "consciousness" in the egg.

So it saw its compatriots being strangled, skinned and boned, and refined into various magical instruments and treasures... Even its egg was being fought over and domesticated by others day and night.

However, how can ordinary people bear the bloody storm brought by the dragon eggs?

After all... who wouldn't want to contract a dragon?!

It was constantly immersed in blood and death, and several times it felt like it was about to wither away... Fortunately, it met its master...

Although it has welcomed a new life, it will never forget the pain of the past!

Especially when it came to the Jiao Clan's territory...

I discovered that the Jiao clan was completely different from what I had heard and imagined.

According to legend, the Jiao clan is cold, selfish, cruel and bloodthirsty, and will even fight and devour each other.

But the real Jiao clan will protect and tolerate each other even when they are fighting against each other.

If so...

Then why couldn’t we tolerate these ghost dragons at the beginning?

They practice the underworld, so do they deserve to die?

The little ghost was angry and confused, so it kept hiding in the dark, silently watching Ji Wushuang and Jiao Zu negotiate, without any intention of trying to persuade them... until it saw that it was even willing to bow to its master for the sake of its cubs and bloodline.

At that moment, the little ghost suddenly felt extremely bored and dull.

It also understands that it is inherently not accepted by its own kind.

But it doesn’t matter, it has an owner and other friends.

This is enough.

As for asking the master to help the Jiao clan, it was probably its last bit of reluctance... Of course, the Jiao clan itself was powerful, and it might not be a bad thing if they grew up and could be driven by the master.

The Dragon Ancestor was silent for a long time before finally speaking frankly, "I expelled your Ghost Dragon lineage because death would follow me wherever I was..."

The little ghost's heart sank. "W-what?! Although I practice the underworld, I have nothing to do with death!"

"Do you know what the Ghost Dragon's magical power is?"

"..."

The Dragon Ancestor gently touched the little ghost's eyebrows with his fingertips, and suddenly countless fragmented images came to its sea of ​​consciousness.

It saw that wherever the ghost dragon passed by, it would devour the "vitality" of its own kind. Moreover, this devouring was a "passive skill" that they had no control over, whether they were adult or young. In the end, in order to protect the dragon clan, they had no choice but to expel the ghost dragon lineage...

"This..." the little ghost muttered to himself, "This is impossible. We might devour the vitality of our own kind. Look at me, I have been with my master for so long, and my master has so many friends around him, and I have never devoured the vitality of others!"

Jiao Zu's eyes flickered slightly, "You'll have to ask your master about that."

Ji Wushuang pointed at himself: "Ah? Ask me?"

"You are a ghost, right?"

"Ah, yes."

"The Ghost Dragon cultivates the Way of the Underworld, but it is not a creature of the Underworld after all, so its Dao roots are missing. After you made a contract with it, you made up for its deficiencies, and it can now cultivate normally. Otherwise, it would have long since embarked on the same path as the rest of the tribe, surviving by sucking life force..." The Dragon Ancestor sighed softly as he spoke, "The connection between you and this Ghost Dragon is truly a heaven-sent fate..."

fate?!

Ji Wushuang's eyes flashed. If there was only one Ghost Dragon, then Ji Wushuang believed it was fate.

but……

Ji Wushuang quickly pressed his brows and summoned Xiao Fenglian, then held its wings and brought it in front of Jiao Zu, "What about this one?"

Jiao Zu stared at the mottled black-haired little chicken for a long time, and said quietly, "Forgive my poor eyesight, this is..."

"Nether Phoenix! Nether Phoenix! This is the Nine Nether Phoenix!"

"You said this is the legendary... Nine Nether Phoenix, the most powerful creature in the Phoenix clan, capable of devouring and suppressing all evil in the world?"

"Correct!"

Wow, I've never seen such a dark phoenix that is neither majestic nor awe-inspiring. It really opens my eyes.

"Hey, that's strange. This little Nether Phoenix's path is quite complete, a little different from the Ghost Dragon."

Ji Wushuang remembered something and summoned Manman and the divine bird Wangmu again.

One after another, the Dragon Ancestor just couldn’t deal with it.

"Little girl... You also have the Messenger of the Dead and the Underworld Vine. Are you planning to build a new world independent of the laws?"

From the fact that Ji Wushuang's small world can accommodate Bai Ze, Bai Hu and Zhu Que, it can be seen that her small world is extremely complete. Now there is the undead messenger, the divine bird Wang Mu, the vine of the underworld, and a dragon and a phoenix as pillars. The underworld phoenix is ​​responsible for killing and suppressing, and the ghost dragon is responsible for nurturing vitality. It is no exaggeration to say that it has completed both life and death.

If nothing unexpected happens, Ji Wushuang's small world is the most complete small world that Jiao Zu has ever seen.

Yin and Yang, life and death.

The stars fall from the sky.

Ji Wushuang looked at Manman suspiciously. It was too guilty to dare to look at Ji Wushuang, and tried hard to disguise itself as an ordinary, featureless vine, but it was obviously too late.

Ji Wushuang approached Manman and asked, "Are you the Underworld Vine?"

Manman: "This...hahaha...uh..."

It's over.

Ying Ying Ying.

Exposed la la la la...

Ji Wushuang understood without a doubt, and narrowed his eyes as he said, "Speak up! If you don't tell me, I'll go ask Zhu Yan myself. If I remember correctly, you called me Master from the moment you saw me, and you even said you'd been waiting for me for a long time. I told you you'd mistaken me for someone else, but you said you didn't..."

Manman: “…” Woo woo woo, how come the master has such a good memory, woo woo woo.

Manman could only give Jiaozu a sinister look, then hung his head and grumbled, "That's right... I'm the Netherworld Vine..."

Ji Wushuang folded his arms in front of him and asked, "What do you mean by waiting for me somewhere?"

"..."

"Did not say?"

"It's not that I won't tell you, it's that I don't know..." Manman said pitifully, "In fact, I appeared in Tianlan Continent to actively integrate into the Heavenly Dao and create an opportunity for your birth..."

Create an opportunity for her birth?

Could it be that……

She can preserve her soul and be reborn, isn't it because of the power of evolution?

But was it some existence... that forcibly intervened with the power of the laws of heaven and sent her, a poor soul with nowhere to go, back into the "world"?

Tianyan: [……]

Tianyan was also sweating profusely.

Oh my god, archaeology, it’s its fault now. Is it too late for it to pretend to be dead now?

Just when Tianyan was getting extremely anxious and thinking about how to "get away with it", Ji Wushuang did not look for him, but collected all the little guys together, leaving only Manman outside, and saluted Jiaozu.

"Thank you for your guidance, Senior. If you would like to find a place for the younger generations of the Jiao Clan to develop, you can establish an anchor point between your small world and the Jiao Clan's territory. You can travel back and forth between your small world and the Jiao Clan's territory at any time. Do you think this is feasible?"

Jiao Zu was delighted when he heard this. "Great! As a reward, from now on I will stay in your little world with Bai Ze, Zhu Que, Bai Hu and the others, and I can occasionally give you some pointers."

Three Beasts: “…” So after saying so much, you shameless guy still wants to stay here?

Ji Wushuang said again: "Okay, but Senior Bai Ze will be nurtured in my sea of ​​consciousness, you see..."

"I also want to be nurtured in your sea of ​​consciousness!"

"it is good."

Ji Wushuang agreed without hesitation, took Suzaku and Baihu into his small world, and took Bai Ze and the Jiao clan into his sea of ​​consciousness. Then, with a stern face, he rushed out of the Jiao clan's secret realm with great momentum.

Outside the secret realm, Zhu Yan was waiting patiently. After sensing Ji Wushuang's breath, his eyes lit up quietly and he raised his eyes quickly, only to meet Ji Wushuang's unfriendly gaze.

Zhu Yan: “…”

Zhu Yan was stunned for a moment, and when he saw Manman with his head hanging down and leaning on Ji Wushuang's shoulder, he suddenly had a bad feeling.

As Ji Wushuang became more and more confused, Zhu Yan's mind raced, and he finally managed to utter, "I can explain..."

Ji Wushuang folded his hands in front of him and squinted his eyes, saying, "Okay, explain it, Lord of the Underworld."

Zhu Yan: “…”

Ji Wushuang finally saw clearly that there was no such thing as a "spiritual clone".

He was him from beginning to end.

It was precisely because of the intervention of the Lord of the Underworld that even though she was destroyed by forbidden techniques and her body was completely divided up, her "soul and consciousness" were still preserved.

Even though it was clear that the laws and the great way were no longer in harmony, one still found an "entry point" and entered the "world", no longer having to wander outside the world like a wandering soul...

"Why don't you speak?"

"Because I don't know where to begin..."

"Then I'll ask you to answer."

"it is good."

"You've always been you, haven't you?"

"Correct."

"So, when you acted so silly at the beginning, was that intentional or..."

"No, the Tianlan Continent was about to collapse due to the war, so I used the Nether Vine to support it. However, as the Lord of the Underworld, I shouldn't interfere in the affairs of the universe, so I have been fighting against the laws of the universe."

Ji Wushuang thought of the "law". Even the way of heaven was constrained by it, so it was difficult for Zhu Yan to keep playing against it.

Ji Wushuang took a deep breath and said in a trembling voice: "I...was the birth of this body of mine the product of your interference?"

Zhu Yan shook his head: "No, according to the laws, you should have been reincarnated as Feng Ying's daughter, but without your memories... I took action and preserved your memories..."

"Then... what would happen to me if I had no memories, my original self?"

"Even if you fall into the abyss, you will climb out again."

"and then?"

"Then……"

Then... you will destroy everything just as Xia Yi, the Heavenly Man of Time, saw.

"You will seek revenge and revenge, and the war between you and Feng Ying and Xia Yi will continue until one of them dies."

Ji Wushuang's pupils trembled slightly, "Then...will I kill them...?"

"meeting."

Zhu Yan's eyes were bright, without a trace of concealment, and he spoke in a gentle voice.

"You'll kill them."

And you won't just kill them, you will bury the stars, you will annihilate all things, you will slash them to pieces...

Then, you will sit alone by the sea of ​​stars, mired in dust and ashes, staring at the universe with a withered and empty gaze. In the end, you will sleep forever in eternity along with countless monsters that have come here on the scent of blood and death...

Ji Wushuang shuddered violently and murmured, "That scared me... Fortunately, I still have my memory."

Zhu Yan's eyes were as gentle as ever, and he even reached out and rubbed her head: "Is there anything else you want to ask?"

"So... Manman is what you left for me?"

"Yes, I'm afraid you'll be bullied."

"What about Xiao Fenglian and Xiao Gui?"

“I did cast the bloodlines of the Dark Phoenix and Ghost Dragon in the Tianlan Continent, but whether they will meet you is your own opportunity.”

"...So, after I was divided, you were the one who saved my soul together with Tian Yan?"

"it's me."

Ji Wushuang asked in confusion: "Why are you helping me so much?"

Zhu Yan was about to say something when Ji Wushuang hurriedly said, "Don't try to fool me with the words from Minghaizhibian. Although we got along well during that time, it's probably not worth it for you to go to such great lengths to help me."

“Why is it not worth it?”

Zhu Yan's question made Ji Wushuang stunned.

"Ji Wushuang."

"Ok?"

"Don't forget what Wanshou Tiandao said to you. You are very good, very good. You deserve the best. You are worth my every effort and dedication to help you, because you are the best..."

Ji Wushuang was looked at by Zhu Yan's deep eyes, and for a moment, his heart skipped a beat for no reason.

——You deserve it.

——You deserve the best.
