Chapter 1604

As substitutes for the will of the humans of the previous epoch, the Pangu clan swayed this newborn world in the capacity of gods, and because the Pangu clan transcended the six realms, even Fate found it difficult to dominate their fate.

Therefore, the Pangu clan was Fate's greatest nemesis; after this race was created, in order to continue dominating the fate of all living beings as it had in previous epochs, Fate had to eliminate the Pangu clan.

But little did it know that for the Pangu clan, after the heaven and earth were first opened, their greatest goal was actually to capture Fate and then eliminate it.

The entire heaven and earth, from the very beginning, was a grand game of chess.

Now, before the outcome appeared, no one knew whether this game of chess would end with Fate destroying all living beings, or with Fate itself being destroyed.

It was precisely because Zaijie knew of the existence of this game of chess that he came out of the Eternal Kingdom and existed in this world as a bystander.

Due to his identity, it was inconvenient for him to be tainted by too much karma in this epoch.

Because the more karma there was, the more it would cause him to fall into Fate, subsequently being controlled by Fate.

But if possible, he still did not mind helping Ma Xiaoling and the others a little.

Ma Xiaoling, Kuang Tianyou—these people were an extremely important link in the Pangu clan's plan to deal with Fate.

Wanyan Bupo was also the same!

It seemed that his turning into a zombie was an accident, but little did one know, how could this not be some arrangement in the dark?

After all, Wanyan Bupo's past life was the Heavenly Brave who saved the world in the Battle of Luohou Worshipping the Moon.

And his future self was Yamamoto Kazuo.

He was also a crucial existence.

After Yamamoto Kazuo's clone, Situ Fenren, died in battle fighting Jiang Chen, now, there was no Yamamoto Kazuo in the future, nor was there a Situ Fenren.

And now, Kuang Tianyou was trapped in the Pangu clan's holy land and could not come out.

In order to deal with the Holy Mother of Yaochi's destruction of the world, Ma Xiaoling came to this era, preparing to take away Jiantou, the past life of Kuang Tianyou. Similarly, Wanyan Bupo, the past life of Yamamoto Kazuo, also had to exist.

He was also a crucial contingency.

Therefore, there could not be any changes in this Battle of Zhuxian Town.

Because Zaijie had always been outside the game, he was well-versed in many things, both ancient and modern.

To him, all living beings in heaven and earth were like a game of chess.

Of course, it was not that he saw everything clearly.

For example, the time period when the three books were too close; because of the special nature of the Heaven, Earth, and Human Books, that period of history was extremely chaotic, and he could not see it clearly.

Or for example, certain existences.

Zombies, because they did not enter the six realms, had a fate that was hard to determine, and he could not see the fate of zombies clearly.

But in this world, it was not only the fate of zombies that could not be seen clearly.

There was also one person's fate that he could not see clearly.

That was... Taishang Daozu!

Zaijie was extremely curious about Taishang Daozu, who preached to all living beings and single-handedly created the myths and gods of the current Immortal Realm and Buddhist Realm.

For the Pangu clan and others, the emergence of cultivators was a matter of heavenly numbers, a matter destined by fate.

But Zaijie, as a person who survived from the previous epoch and the only outsider, saw things more clearly than the people of the Pangu clan.

The existence of Taishang Daozu was neither a heavenly number nor a fixed number, but... a variable.

Although this person was born among the human race, starting from the very bottom.

But Zaijie discovered that he could not see the other party's fate trajectory.

There was always a layer of mist shrouding the other party; this mist did not completely cover Su Xuan's fate—in the eyes of outsiders, Su Xuan's fate trajectory was clearly visible.

But Zaijie knew that this was merely an illusion brought about by the mist.

Su Xuan's true fate trajectory was always covered, making it difficult for people to grasp.

That was why Zaijie concluded that Su Xuan was a variable.

At this key node of the Battle of Zhuxian Town, Su Xuan, this variable, came here; Zaijie did not know if it was an accident or if Su Xuan did it on purpose.

But after contacting Ma Xiaoling, Zaijie contacted Su Xuan again, hoping that Su Xuan would not interfere in this matter, so as to avoid complications.

After all, the plan to capture Fate spanned from ancient times to the present and really could not afford any mistakes.

After pondering for a while, Zaijie used the Heart-to-Heart Connection to converse with Su Xuan again: "I cannot sway the will of Taishang Daozu, but I sincerely hope Taishang Daozu will not interfere in this matter."

"If Taishang Daozu agrees to my request, after the Battle of Zhuxian Town, you can come to Kunlun, and I will thank Taishang Daozu in person!"

"You are truly arrogant!" Su Xuan's tone was complex. "To thank me, you actually want me to go to Kunlun myself."

Hearing this, Zaijie was about to explain.

Su Xuan's words sounded again: "But I also understand that you don't want to be tainted by too much karma in this world; even if you are a person from the previous epoch, all karma has long since vanished with the destruction of the previous epoch, but if you generate too much karma with this epoch, you will still change from 'Zaijie' (Inevitable) to 'Zaijie Nantaotao' (Inevitably Doomed)."

As for Zaijie taking Yue Yinping as a disciple?

It seemed like he was taking her as a disciple, but in reality, this itself was a layout.

Regarding many things, Zaijie did not pay any more attention after handing them to Yue Yinping, so this karma was not very much.

But if he were to take action personally, the nature of it would be completely different.

Therefore, Zaijie was currently only "Zaijie" (Inevitable), not "Nantaotao" (Doomed).

"However, considering this is your first offense, I will give you some face; I will not participate in this matter."

"You just wait for me obediently in Kunlun Mountain!"

In Kunlun Mountain, Zaijie suddenly breathed a sigh of relief after hearing Su Xuan's words.

He was truly afraid that Su Xuan would directly interfere in this matter.

Regarding this person Su Xuan, he could not see through him, and to this day, he did not know if Su Xuan was a person from the previous epoch or if he was related to Fate.

This person was an out-and-out variable; although his fate trajectory seemed very clear, it was actually shrouded in mist.

If Su Xuan were to get involved in Zhuxian Town, with Su Xuan's strength, no one knew to what extent this matter would evolve.

Now that Su Xuan had agreed not to get involved in this matter, it was truly great.

In the time that followed, Zaijie prepared in Kunlun Mountain, intending to welcome Su Xuan's arrival.
