The Path of Evolution

"With the secret treasure in front of him, Zhao Hao is really not an easy man to be able to cut off a strong man's wrist and yet be willing to give up."

On the top of the mountain, Gu Chen showed some interest and some displeasure.

"Senior brother, do you think it's a pity? If he gave up halfway, senior brother wouldn't be able to be that profitable fisherman."

The woman in green clothes finally spoke. Although her tone was calm, there was a hint of teasing in her words.

"Yes, I feel a pity. If those people didn't join forces, neither you nor I would be able to see the true face of the Emperor's Palace." Gu Chen was also a ruthless character and admitted openly: "A good show, if this is the case The ending would be too boring.”

In front of the Emperor's Palace, there was a small twist in the plot.

Su Yurong, who originally believed in fate, was no longer obsessed with the seemingly destined treasure in the maze, and changed her mind: "Son, Mom knows that your dad and I are here, and you can't let go. Mom still says that we are a family. Being together is more important than anything else. Since you think the maze is dangerous, then we won’t go in. We will survive the three hundred and sixty days, and when we leave this ruins, we will find a way to go home together."

"No!" Dad Zhao actually contradicted his wife and expressed a completely different view: "Xiao Hao, you were bitten by a snake once and were afraid of well ropes for ten years. You haven't come out from the shadow of Drifting Island yet. , this is the fundamental reason why you don’t want to get married and let us, the old couple, have grandchildren! A man must be able to take things up and let them go. After so many years, you have to let go of things that need to be let go! At your age, dad doesn’t need to teach you. You know what you want to do."

After hearing this, everyone present reacted normally, but the man and woman on the top of the mountain couldn't calm down.

The woman in Tsing Yi could not maintain her calm state, and a wave of emotions flashed across her beautiful and refined little face.

This scene couldn't escape Gu Chen's eyes. Senior Brother Gu seemed to be quite touched, and he suddenly became artistic: "Asking what love is in the world, you can tell me whether life and death are mutually exclusive... Junior sister, I can't help but think of Senior Brother Pei Lie."

The woman in green clothes said: "Is it Pei Lie, who is known as the number one true disciple of our sect? Why did senior brother suddenly mention him?"

"Senior Brother Pei Lie and Senior Sister Li were originally a couple. They practiced the secret dual cultivation skills of our sect and were ranked in the top ten in sect competitions many times. God's will brings about an accident fifty years ago, and Senior Sister Li's beauty disappeared. Passed away. From then on, Senior Brother Pei Lie never married, and drank all day long to drown his sorrows. After being depressed for more than ten years, he suddenly realized something overnight and practiced a unique skill of our sect. After that, Senior Brother Pei Lie won the sect competition every ten years. , won the first place three times in a row. To be honest, there are many sect members in this sect, and I only obey Pei Lie. Now, it is Senior Brother Pei Lie who is responsible for taking care of the third-order heaven." Gu Chen explained one Story, if any.

The woman in green was silent, as if she didn't hear the underlying message.

At this moment, Xiao Zhao, who was being educated by Lao Zhao, was greeted by his sister-in-law who burst out: "Uncle Zhao is right, you haven't come out of the shadow of Castaway Island yet! Also, you have to shoulder all the responsibilities It’s all your fault. Don’t forget, before we went to Castaway Island, we voted in the Ice and Snow Castle, and everyone voted in favor. This is not your responsibility alone, why do you torture yourself like this?”

Zhao Hao also got emotional: "You don't need to say such words to comfort me. I was the one who went to Drifting Island to check out the points and said that the Blue Dome was not a very strong person. It was me. If I hadn't made my own decision, none of this would have happened. .”

"What ifs? There are so many ifs in the world. Things have already happened. Is it useful for you to blame yourself all day long?" My sister-in-law became angry and turned into a complete red pepper, turning back into the fierce and crazy girl she used to be. : "Zhao Hao, let me tell you, I have never complained about you in these years! I am sure that my sister did not blame you for that incident. It was an accident that no one expected! You are still a king now. , if you can’t even pass this level, then I will always despise you in this life, the next life and the next life after that!”

Zhao Hao was speechless.

In the past few years, many times he thought he had given up.

But now, when that familiar yet unfamiliar feeling of heart palpitations came, he realized that he had not truly let go.

The person present who can really understand Zhao Ritian's mood is not Red Pepper or Zhao Hao's wife Su Yurong, but Cang Yun.

The proprietress, who is good at observing words and emotions, has a clear idea: to activate the statues of the four demon kings now, Princess Xiang needs to cooperate seriously. The prerequisite for Princess Xiang's cooperation is that Zhao Hao agrees to her condition.

There is such a progressive relationship between the two.

In other words, the person who decides everyone's fate is still Zhao Ritian.

Because of this, Xiao Zhao was under great pressure, and one of his decisions would affect the fate of everyone present.

If there are various treasures in the maze, everyone will be happy. But if there is danger hidden in the maze, or if you accidentally release an old monster that is more ruthless than the Mirage Emperor and has been sealed for thousands of years, then the fun will be great.

Just as Zhao Hao said, his parents are here, his sister-in-law is here, and his old friends are here, so he can't afford to lose.

"Ahem..." Cang Yun coughed twice. With Zhao Hao's parents present, she did not show off, and her words and deeds were very generous and decent: "Teacher Zhao, I have never expressed my position on what happened back then. Because I have the same question as you. , we were trapped in that water balloon by the Mirage Emperor, and we were all suffocated and unconscious. How did we survive in the end? Over the years, I have been looking for answers. Today I can tell you with conscience, you are not alone in what happened on the Drifting Island. It’s everyone’s fault. If someone has to take the blame, then all of us are at fault.”

"I agree." The aloof Fengyun Jian actually spoke, and for the first time, he said more than twenty words of lines: "I don't have any big reasons to say. If you lose today, go back and practice hard, and win back tomorrow. That’s it. The only reason to blame is that we weren’t good at our studies back then. It’s useless to feel sorry for ourselves. It’s better to find ways to improve ourselves.”

This kind of simple and unpretentious remarks brought a positive energy to Zhao Hao.

Seeing that his expression softened a little, Cang Yun added: "Teacher Zhao, what you are most worried about right now is that there is a big threat in the maze, which may threaten the safety of your relatives and even lead to the annihilation of our entire army. In fact, from another perspective Think about it, the Ten Thousand Demon Emperor has been planning for thousands of years just to deal with us humans. Doesn’t he think too highly of us?”

"What the boss lady said makes sense. Don't forget, there are statues of the Four Demon Lords here, which means that the Heavenly Demon Emperor may have a back-up here. Even if the Ten Thousand Demon Emperor really does something wrong, I guess the Heavenly Demon Emperor will not let her get her wish." Xue Qing used her criminal investigation ability and analyzed rationally: "Also, although I don't know the Ten Thousand Demon Emperor, but after listening to everyone's remarks, I can Imagine that she is a strange woman who is rare to see in ten thousand years. Her pattern is not as small as that of the Mirage Emperor!"
