Protagonist:

Xuan Ge

"Xuan Ge, do you still care about moral kidnapping?"

The Gui Ji Dice began to turn, and upon discovering Xuan Ge had not made a move, he continued speaking.

"Someone like you, are you really fit to be Emperor?"

"Gui Ji, I've repaid the debt of favor."

Huan Long interrupted Gui Ji's mockery; she came to Xuan Ge's side, just wanting to explain, but Xuan Ge interrupted her.

"I know you owe Gui Ji a karmic debt, but you've repaid it now."

Xuan Ge currently had no mind to pay attention to Huan Long; he kept thinking about Gui Ji's ultimate purpose.

Was it ultimately for Ji Zi, or simply wanting to kill himself...

"Haven't seen each other for hundreds of years, your verbal Kung Fu has improved, but your strength, is it somewhat mismatched?"

Xuan Ge's right hand slowly condensed gold-blue lightning, and then a Chu Ya Jiao formed from pure Hunt causality was grasped in his hand.

Gui Ji has mechanics, but I have stats.

What insight into the future, choosing the most favorable timeline — go tell that to the Hunt's causality.

One spear strike doesn't kill, count it as a dud.

"Wanna try?" Gui Ji spread his arms, not using any ability, just standing there utterly defenseless.

Xuan Ge is the type who listens to advice most; since Gui Ji said to chop him, he would satisfy Gui Ji.

Fu Xuan was flashed by that violent golden lightning to the point of somewhat closing her eyes.

But when she opened them, she discovered His Majesty's spear tip was stopped at a distance of one inch from Gui Ji's dice head.

"Gui Ji, if you dare do this, I'll make you wish you were dead." Xuan Ge coldly looked at the dice head; this one spear thrust down, and the entire Wu Liang Ta would cease to exist.

"Like this gift?" Gui Ji's right hand reached toward the Chu Ya spear tip, cheekily flicking it.

After learning Ji Zi had become Xuan Ge's consort, he immediately bound the karmic debt to the source of Wu Liang Ta, onto Hui Shi's body.

Because Hui Shi was still alive,

This way, as long as Xuan Ge dared to violently kill him, then the entire Wu Liang Ta, from beginning to end, would be completely destroyed.

Xuan Ge put away the Chu Ya, speaking mockingly: "Have to admit, you really are a good adoptive father."

"Hehe." Gui Ji laughed faintly, "What's this? Compared to me, you're actually even more despicable."

"The Emperor Shen Wei, from birth, kept pressuring the Abominations, forcing them to launch the Third Fertility Civil War, and afterward thoroughly shattered Fertility's backbone, achieving the unification of the Six Harmonies."

Fu Xuan stepped out, beginning to refute Gui Ji's words.

"These are all solid military achievements, not to mention with Shen Wu present, the Destruction Corps couldn't cross a single step."

Clap clap.

Gui Ji clapped his palms, agreeing with Fu Xuan's words.

"Hmph, His Majesty has always been open and aboveboard, unlike you rats in the sewers." Fu Xuan coldly snorted, not accepting Gui Ji's agreement.

Huan Long, hearing Fu Xuan's indiscriminate attack, her brow twitched.

Every sentence was said to Gui Ji, but also seemed like every sentence was said to herself...

Gui Ji glanced at Xuan Ge, then looked at the pink-haired girl: "Since Emperor Shen Wei is so bright and towering, why didn't he save his companion, Bai Hang?"

"In that battle, His Majesty was not unable to contend with the Fertility Emissary's Shuhu, but His Majesty's achievements are written in Xian Zhou history."

"Hehe, Shen Wei, truly impressive."

Gui Ji shook his dice, then toward Xuan Ge's front, took a step.

"Pink-haired little miss, what I've been asking is, Xuan Ge, why, did he not go save Bai Hang?"

"You, this person, don't understand..."

Fu Xuan frowned, just wanting to explain again, but Xuan Ge raised his hand, interrupting her words defending him.

Gui Ji strode around to Xuan Ge's side, facing Fu Xuan and Huan Long, but his gaze remained on Xuan Ge the whole time.

"Emperor Shen Wei is merely a lucky child favored by the gods. The Hunt chose him, Fertility embraced him, Harmony favored him, Destruction favored him."

"You think you walked to today by yourself?"

Gui Ji coldly laughed.

"Since you're so impressive, do you dare answer me one simplest question."

"The Shuhu Rebellion back then — you, really couldn't save Bai Hang?"

"Gui Ji! You're courting death!" Hearing this question, Huan Long's pupils shrank, without any hesitation she directly erupted with power, wanting to force back Gui Ji.

Huan Long could no longer let Gui Ji and Xuan Ge continue their dialogue, otherwise Nihility would crawl further toward Xuan Ge.

She really hadn't expected Gui Ji would bring up Bai Hang to provoke Xuan Ge, and the angle was extremely tricky.

Gui Ji's meaning was self-evident: Xuan Ge could follow causality back to the past, so why not give his younger self a hint?

Why must Bai Hang be sacrificed?

Is it really just for power, that even a good friend must be schemed against?

The Gui Ji Dice first turned a bit, then didn't move at all; those Fertility Power branches could not advance a single inch toward Gui Ji.

"Heh, Huan Long, back then you watched Xuan Ge suffer."

Gui Ji looked at her; since the cooperation had already ended, and Huan Long was moreover in cahoots with Xuan Ge, there was no need to consider colleague sentiment.

"Yeah, I watched." Huan Long spoke with cold eyes: "But what you said, it's all Nihility."

"Because Xuan Ge's hatred was never about the Whispering Chaos or Yin Yue's Chaos, but..."

Huan Long glanced at Xuan Ge, she took a deep breath and revealed the reason: "But hatred for his future self."

A military man of ambition—how could he fail to figure out who that person was, the one he met by the sea back then who bought him a pile of snacks?

When Xuan Ge reached his youth, the moment he saw himself in the mirror, he had already figured everything out.

"You must become strong. Stronger than anyone." That was future Xuan Ge's warning and admonition to himself.

Xuan Ge had not failed to consider saving Bai Hang; he simply could not do it.

But if he were to forcibly interfere, what about the others?

What about Jing Yuan? What about Jing Liu? What were Dan Feng and Ying Xing supposed to do?

What kind of fate would his own soldiers have to suffer?

So Xuan Ge had always hated himself—hated himself for not changing, hated the Hunt, for giving him such power.

Until this hatred drew the gaze of the Hunt Star God Lord taking the initiative, completing the causal loop.

"Xuan Ge, say something."

Gui Ji sensed that Xuan Ge's aura was still so calm, and he grew somewhat anxious.

Was this not enough to provoke Xuan Ge? That Void Order Bearer named Huang Quan, eradicated so cleanly?

He had only just learned these things Huan Long spoke of.

From others' perspectives, Xuan Ge was merely a lucky one; who would have thought there were so many twists within?

Xuan Ge was now very calm; all these things were in the past, Bai Lu was doing well, happy every day—that was enough.

Moreover, he bore this power, and would not allow another tragedy to happen before his eyes.

His golden eyes locked onto Gui Ji, and in one sentence he laid bare Gui Ji's purpose: "Gui Ji, you want to use the Tie Mu, right?"

Gui Ji's aura sank; Xuan Ge had guessed correctly.

"Heh."

But immediately afterward, Gui Ji was angered into laughter.

This martial man Xuan Ge, ever since he got involved with causality, has truly become smarter and smarter.

"Correct, I do indeed want to use the Tie Mu, but my purpose is only for Ji Zi."

Gui Ji admitted it generously; anyway, he had not lost yet, he still had a chance to secretly kill Xuan Ge.

"Hah?" Now it was Huan Long's turn to be bewildered; what on earth was this Gui Ji doing?

What did it mean to use the Tie Mu, just for Ji Zi?
