That's What Villains Are Like

The mist is lingering, the cliffs are green, and the silver waterfall falls down and splashes into the boundless abyss. The environment is very beautiful.

Jiang Ruxian followed Jiang Lan to a cliff in Buzhou Broken Mountain. The mountains in the distance were majestic and majestic, and the vast sea of ​​clouds was surging. The edges could not be seen at all, as if they were completely isolated from the world and independent from the outside world.

"What do you want to know?" Jiang Rushian finally spoke first.

"What is your relationship with the Queen? Who asked you to leave that golden tripod of luck to me?" Jiang Lan stopped, looked back at her and asked.

"If there is a hierarchy, she should be my sister after that day."

"However, you can also say that she is of the same race as me, but she was conceived before me." Jiang Rushian did not hide it in front of Jiang Lan.

"Is the Queen of Heaven also a congenital fairy?"

There were some changes in Jiang Lan's expression, and he appeared to be thinking, as if he had thought of something.

Jiang Ruxian nodded and said, "After the great world is completely destroyed, strange objects like the World Stone will be born. Before the chaos was divided and the world did not appear in the world, there would also be all kinds of incredible divine objects."

"The Queen of Heaven was conceived and born from a fairy womb on the banks of the Ten Thousand Dao Mother River."

"After she was born with spiritual wisdom, she picked me up in the dry Wandao River and took me with her at all times." Jiang Ruxian said.

She was also born from the womb of an immortal. After the collapse of Yaochi, Kunlun Mountain also collapsed and turned into a fragment, becoming the forbidden Kunlun Fairy Ruins.

It was also Jiang Lan's parents who entered the Kunlun Immortal Ruins when it was manifesting in the world and accidentally brought Jiang Ruxian out.

However, at that time, Jiang Rushian had not recalled many experiences in Yaochi.

As her cultivation became stronger, those memories were slowly coming back to life.

During this period of time, she truly understood her identity and origins.

"That's true."

Jiang Lan thought of many things at this moment.

Considering the relationship between Jiang Rushian and Tianhou, it is reasonable for Buzhou Xian, as a disciple of Tianhou, to be so respectful and polite to Jiang Rushian.

But he still had some guesses in his mind, whether Jiang Ruxian really returned to the present from the future, or whether he went to the future due to various adventures or accidents, or saw the so-called fragment of the future.

With the improvement of his cultivation and his understanding of the various rules and orders between heaven and earth, Jiang Lan did not think that Jiang Rushian could easily step into the long river of time and return to the present from the future.

She couldn't bear this kind of cause and effect, let alone disturb it until now.

The slightest change now is enough to turn the future upside down. Everything from the past to the present proves that there are inexplicable and unexplained general trends in the world that maintain order and operation.

What happened is in the past and cannot be changed. Anyone who wants to reverse this trend will suffer endless consequences and be shattered into pieces.

In other words, in the future that Jiang Rushian experienced, Jiang Lan died at the hands of Lin Fan. If this is true, then Jiang Lan's death is something that cannot be changed.

Even if Jiang Ruxian cultivates to the heavens, reverses the years, and wants to change everything, various accidents will happen.

Either she is lost in the long river of time, or there are beings upstream or downstream in the long river of time, trying to block her. In short, there will be countless indescribable and unexplained forces in the world to stop her.

But now Jiang Lan is not dead, but Lin Fan has died in his hands, which means that the so-called future is not the real future at all, and what he is experiencing now is reality.

The part of the future that Jiang Ruxian experienced could only be one of countless possibilities or trajectories in the future.

As long as the future has not happened yet, it is unknown and disorderly. For Jiang Lan now, the era he established is now.

The real future will only be known by those creatures and entities living in the future.

Of course, if Jiang Lan really reaches the point where he can consolidate the three timelines of the past, present, and future, then the so-called general trend of heaven and earth will naturally not be able to affect him.

He turned the world upside down in the blink of an eye, returned to chaos, recreated the world, fabricated everything, and naturally didn't care about any timeline.

It's just that this level is still too far away from the current Jiang Lan, and Jiang Ruxian obviously can't reach it.

"That golden cauldron of luck was personally refined by the Emperor of Heaven during the time of the Ancient Heaven. It was used for the sacrifices of all races in the world. It absorbed faith and luck and suppressed it in the center of the Ancient Heaven. It also suppressed the luck of the Ancient Heaven." Jiang Rushian continued. explained.

"Do you know who the Emperor of Heaven is?" Jiang Lan asked again.

Jiang Ruxian shook his head and said, "My memory of that era is very vague, but I often remember that the Emperor of Heaven would come to Yaochi, drink tea with the Queen of Heaven, and talk and laugh in front of the peaches. The Golden Cauldron of Luck was very important to the Emperor of Heaven. Say, it’s very important.”

"So I think you should take it away."

"As for the true face of the Emperor of Heaven, no one has ever seen him. He always wears a crown and his face is hidden in the fog. Perhaps only the Queen of Heaven has seen his true appearance."

"No one has seen the Emperor of Heaven?"

Jiang Lan nodded, thoughtfully, and then asked, "By the way, what did you take from the Temple of Heaven, and who attacked you?"

After hearing this question, Jiang Ruxian frowned slightly and said, "I don't know who attacked me, but when I left the All Heavens Palace, I had no fear of the Realm Lord who could attack me. I'm afraid They are also some restricted areas, or ancient creatures sleeping in some mysterious fields."

"I can only use the method of cause and effect to deduce it afterwards to see if I can find any clues."

"As for the thing I took from the Temple of the Heavens, it was a mysterious object that the Emperor of Heaven and the Lord of Zi Zi Tian found in the upper reaches of the Ten Thousand Dao Mother River. I did not open it. I just knew that the mysterious object was covered by a piece of immortal The source is sealed."

During the period when Gutianting existed, she was not always awake, and was in a deep sleep for a long time.

Even when you are awake, your spiritual intelligence is ignorant and hazy, and it is difficult to truly understand some truths.

Jiang Lan knew that the existence of Jiang Rushian and Tianhou was actually somewhat similar to the Shiling clan on the shores of the North Sea in Kyushu.

Shi Tian and his younger brother Shi Ning were conceived and born from the Sky-Building Stone. They were nourished by nature and protected by heaven and earth.

Jiang Ruxian and Tianhou are similar, except that Tianhou was conceived and born in chaos first, and is more complete innately, while Jiang Ruxian slowly develops his spiritual intelligence through the day after tomorrow.

Then he didn't ask anything else.

Almost everything that needs to be understood is already understood.

As for why Gutianting collapsed, he knew that Jiang Rushian probably couldn't explain it clearly.

"At the end of the ninth era, the Emperor of Heaven will return. The Emperor of Heaven will destroy all living beings and all three thousand ways. If the heavens want to usher in the final peace and prosperity, they must kill the Emperor of Heaven."

"No one knows when the Ninth Age will end. It may take millions of years, or it may only take a few years. For all living beings in the world now, this is the last time." Jiang Rushian then said with a heavy tone. Speaking of this.

This is the truth that keeps popping up in her mind as her memory recovers. Perhaps it was told to her personally by the Queen, or perhaps it was a scene she witnessed in person.

In short, the Emperor of Heaven is no longer the supreme lord of heaven, but the enemy of all living beings.

"How strong is the Emperor of Heaven?" Jiang Lan asked.

"No one knows, no one knows, but the power of the Emperor of Heaven radiates every inch of the heavens, reflecting the infinite universe and trillions of time and space." Jiang Rushian shook his head.

If ordinary people heard this, they would probably feel desperate. How could it be eliminated in the face of such an unknown and almost invincible existence?

Jiang Lan felt very calm in her heart. Whether the Emperor of Heaven destroyed all living beings or all living beings destroyed the Emperor of Heaven, peace was destined to be impossible in the future.

What we can do now is to improve our strength and cultivation as much as possible.

The fairy mist surged, and the silver waterfall fell down into the abyss of unknown depth, splashing up layers of water mist that filled the edge of the cliff and wetted the corners of his clothes.

The two of them stayed here in silence for a long time, neither of them using their magic power to resist the splashing water vapor.

Jiang Lan did not take the initiative to mention the past, and Jiang Rushian did not talk about it again.

Having reached this level of cultivation, Jiang Lan naturally no longer clung to what he thought was the fragment of the future.

Every future moment holds hundreds of millions of possibilities, and every moment of thinking can determine a different trajectory for the future.

There is no need for him to torture Jiang Ruxian because of this future that is no longer possible. Whether it makes her feel guilty or makes her suffer, it will not bring him any substantial benefits in the end.

This is not his ultimate goal either.

"Look at this water vapor. It reflects different scenes at dawn, dawn, noon, dusk, and time...at twelve hours a day. Time is like flowing water, sometimes making waves and ripples, reflecting the water mist, even if it doesn't move. , what you see today will be different tomorrow.”

"Carving a boat to seek a sword, resting in a quiet place, you are going in the opposite direction."

Jiang Lan didn't like to talk about big things, but he felt that Jiang Rushian should have understood all this long ago, instead of still falling into paranoia.

"I know……"

"But you should know that that's not what I care about."

Jiang Rushian's heart was not as calm as it seemed.

Jiang Lan shook his head and said, "Then I can only tell you in the same sentence that the Jiang Lan you know is already dead."

Jiang Ruxian's pupils trembled violently, and his face turned pale as he said, "Don't lie to me."

"Why should I lie to you? I am Jiang Lan, and Jiang Lan is me, but I am not the Jiang Lan you think."

"What happened in the past is long gone. You have been immersed in it and are unwilling to get out. This is your inner demon."

"Memories will always torture those who are nostalgic. No one is the same. You are like this, and so am I." Jiang Lan tried to be as calm as possible.

"That is to say, no matter what I do, it is impossible for you to forgive me..." Jiang Rushian's words were trembling slightly.

"I never blamed you or hated you, but no one is perfect."

Jiang Lan's tone was very calm. He looked at Jiang Rushian's slightly pale face, paused for a moment, and then said,

"That's not right. You used to be perfect in my heart. You were beautiful, intelligent, gentle, considerate, and considerate. I always dreamed that marrying you when I grow up would be the greatest blessing in my life. .”

"In this life, I may never meet you as perfect as you were at that time. No one can compare to her."

"what about now?"

The light in Jiang Ruxian's pupils dimmed, and even she felt that the question was weak.

She already knew what the answer was.

"No one has ever been as good as you were then, not even now."

Jiang Lan did not deliberately arouse Jiang Rushian's emotional changes, he just explained a fact clearly.

The Bai Yueguang in her youth will always be the spotless and flawless Bai Yueguang. No one can compare with her, not even her in the future.

"I understand..." Jiang Rushian lowered his eyes slightly.

No one is perfect, but she has always wanted to maintain a perfect and flawless image in Jiang Lan's heart. For this reason, she is willing to pay any price and do anything to wipe away the stain and repair the cracks.

But obviously, this is no longer possible.

Her paranoia is that she does not allow her image in Jiang Lan's heart to become stained and no longer perfect.

It's just that everything in the past has happened, and a broken mirror can't be reunited, let alone a human heart.

Jiang Lan is no longer the kind, simple, humble and elegant young man in white he used to be...

But she was still paranoid about perfecting herself into the flawless "gentle sister" image she had in his heart.

…

In Buzhouxian's cave, the rays of light dispersed, and along with bursts of five-color divine light, Buzhouxian's blurry figure emerged from there.

"The Picture of the Four Immortals is about to be released, probably within the next six months, and I'm afraid it will be competed by the beings in the other restricted areas."

"In the past six months, you must go and bring Chenyu and Shame Flower back." Bu Zhouxian ordered Gu Luoyan and Xi Guanyue who were standing in front of the cave door.

"Yes, sister."

"Jiang Ruxian has been released from seclusion. She has the Yaochi Token on her body. Maybe my sister can use the Yaochi Token to summon back the former Queen's subordinates. With the help of those subordinates, it should be much easier to seize the Four Immortals Picture." Gu Luoyan said.

"Now is not the time to use the Yaochi Order, so as not to alarm the former subordinates of the Emperor of Heaven. The people in the Palace of the Emperor of Heaven will probably be born and walk soon." Bu Zhouxian's voice was a little solemn.

…

In the following days, after Jiang Lan's guidance, Jiang Rushian gradually opened up a lot and no longer clung to the "misunderstandings" that had occurred in the past.

Regrets are common, and no one's life is truly without regrets.

Cherish the people in front of you and cherish the time in front of you.

So, she moved her cave to next door to Jiang Lan and drove Ye Chanyi away.

At this point in her cultivation, she has actually reached the limit of the current heavens. If she wants to break the limit, she must wait for the heavens to appear, so she has no interest in daily retreats and spiritual practice.

Instead, it seemed to be her greatest pleasure to watch Jiang Lan reading ancient books on the stone table in front of the cave, meditating quietly, and occasionally coming forward to offer him tea.

Even though they haven't seen each other for many years, there is still a tacit understanding between the two. When Jiang Lan flipped through the book, she sat quietly beside him without disturbing him.

When Jiang Lan puts down her book, she will pour hot tea.

Although this kind of life is a bit boring, Jiang Ruxian enjoys it. He even opened a spiritual field next to the cave and planted some very simple fruits and vegetables. Then he chopped green bamboo and built a simple house. Bedroom, kitchen, and a complete set of furniture.

Behind her, she rolled up her sleeves, revealing her beautiful wrists, and tied up her hair, revealing her slender neck. Wearing only a simple linen apron, she went into the kitchen with the vegetables she grew herself.

Whenever he sees Jiang Rushian's nose stained with a little bit of charcoal black, his beautiful face filled with an unprecedented smile, and he walks out with steaming hot porridge, Jiang Lan always looks a little dazed.

Perhaps what I hoped to see when I was young was exactly this scene when I grew up.
