Chapter 1318: The Path Of Apocalypse (41)
“I didn’t know that you have such huge aspirations and are such a kind person. You have my respect.”
Ming Shu seemed amazed.
“You should be one of the top ten touching characters!” Ming Shu suddenly changed the topic. “What is your name?”
“Xi Heng” was about to fume, but Ming Shu’s question extinguished his fury.
He gritted his teeth. “Night Shadow.”
“You still haven’t answered me. How did you know when the Spirit Water would appear?”
Even if he was a prisoner of the Apocalypse Pagoda, he shouldn’t be able to notice when the Apocalypse Pagoda entered its dormant stage. There were no changes inside the Apocalypse Pagoda.
He couldn’t see what was happening outside, either.
Night Shadow: “…”
Deep breaths.
She is still useful…
Night Shadow said, “Bamboo Jade Heaven Scripture.”
“What is that?” Ming Shu was curious. “Bamboo Jade Heaven Scripture?”
Night Shadow raised his hand. A jade bamboo slip appeared in his hand.
It was as long as his fingers and white.
There were some patterns on the surface of the bamboo slip. It seemed to be made casually by its owner.
Ming Shu remained silent.
No wonder she found his plan familiar.
Night Shadow said, “The time of the appearance of the Spirit Water is recorded inside. It even predicted the other appearances of the Spirit Water.”
Xi Heng was the one who acquired this jade bamboo slip. He didn’t know where Xi Heng got it from.
However, he realized that there was a lot of important information inside the bamboo slip.
The appearance of the Spirit Water was one of them.
He knew about the powers of the worlds because of this bamboo slip too.
There were other illegible things written in the bamboo slip. He couldn’t understand what they were.
Night Shadow continued, “The bamboo slip said that this pillar is the thing that is supporting the Apocalypse Pagoda. As long as we destroy this pillar, we will have freedom.”
“Erm…” Ming Shu looked embarrassed. “The things in the jade bamboo slip were written by me.”
Night Shadow: “…”
Night Shadow: “???”
He felt as though he were struck by lightning.
The jade bamboo slip was hers?
No way!
Such an important thing…
Night Shadow didn’t believe her. She must be tricking me!
The Elder said that she liked to trick people!
He would not believe her!
“I went to look for it. So this was where it went. If I knew this would happen, I would not have used it to hit people. How can it not come back to me? I bathed it in reiki all day long. Ungrateful little thing.”
She spoke really softly so Night Shadow didn’t hear her last sentence. However, Qi Yu heard it.
His mouth corners twitched.
Ming Shu pondered. “Your aim is not to destroy the Apocalypse Pagoda, right?”
She remembered what she wrote.
The name “Bamboo Jade Heaven Scripture” was given randomly.
The information inside…
It was more like a diary.
She was bored when she was locked up in the pagoda so she examined the pillar. A lot of information about the pagoda was carved on it.
She wrote about the 3000 big worlds in the bamboo slip too.
No wonder she found it familiar when he told her his plan just now. So this was where he learned everything from.
Night Shadow’s expression didn’t look good.
Ming Shu asked curiously, “What do you want me to do? Help you get the pillar so that you can achieve longevity?”
The suspicion that Night Shadow held toward Ming Shu disappeared. She knew what was written in the jade bamboo slip.
Was it really written by her?
“The pillar is the foundation of the Apocalypse Pagoda. You can achieve longevity if you get the pillar. You can even rule over the Thousand Mirror World and the other thousands of worlds outside.
“What you want is the pillar, right?” He kept trying to talk her into destroying the pillar. He pretended to be thinking of the greater good of the world and made himself out to be a self-sacrificial person.
Night Shadow’s face turned black when Ming Shu exposed him. Something dark appeared in his eyes.
Yes.
What he wanted was the pillar.
At the start, all he wanted was the pillar.
The Thousand Mirror World was the world where the Apocalypse Pagoda was. If he wanted to do anything here, the Apocalypse Pagoda would find out easily.
Hence, he left this world.
However, the pagoda was more difficult to deal with than expected. Before this, he tried on his own.
With his own power, he was unable to move the pillar at all.
Thus, she became his first choice.
He thought that she hated the Apocalypse Pagoda and would work with him to destroy it.
However, she was different.
The jade bamboo slip that he owned was written by her.
All this was outside of his expectations. He was caught off guard.
“Who… are you?”
He knew that she was special. She ended the Battle at Spirit Water alone.
He knew that she was called Ming Shu. This name was famous in the Apocalypse Pagoda.
She could move freely within the Apocalypse Pagoda, but she was not the manager of the pagoda. She was once a prisoner too.
Why was she locked up?
Who on earth was she?
No one knew.
Ming Shu laughed. “Why do you dare to use me when you don’t even know who I am?”
Night Shadow: “…”
“Heh…”
Night Shadow suddenly laughed.
“Luckily, I have a backup plan.”
This sentence was directed at Ming Shu.
“You have a backup plan?”
Night Shadow laughed. He pointed at Qi Yu. “You forgot that he had a pact with the Apocalypse.”
Qi Yu was shocked.
The Apocalypse belonged to Night Shadow. He could tamper with the pact if he wanted to.
“So?” Ming Shu asked indifferently.
“His life is in my hands.” Night Shadow smiled brightly.
Ming Shu stood up and walked in front of Night Shadow.
Night Shadow smiled. He knew…
Night Shadow took out the Apocalypse that looked like a gold coin. “When I left the Apocalypse Pagoda, I took some things from it. After infusing them together, they became a new Apocalypse.
“He had a pact with the Apocalypse and can use it, but I can kill him with a single thought.
“I don’t want to make you my enemy. I just need your help to get the pillar. The Apocalypse Pagoda imprisoned you for so many years. Isn’t it good if I destroy it for you?”
Ming Shu smiled. “Are you threatening me?”
The last person who used the little demon to threaten me died!
This idiot is doing the same thing!
I have my ego too!
Ming Shu nodded. “Fine, let me in.” I will go in and beat you to death!
Night Shadow was vigilant. Did she just agree?
He thought that he would need some time before she relented.
“Don’t try to pull any tricks!”
Ming Shu replied seriously, “His life is in your hands. What else do you want me to do?”
If I don’t agree, how can I go in!
Night Shadow felt that Ming Shu agreed a little too quickly, but when he looked at Qi Yu who was behind her…
He thought for a moment. The image on the door disappeared.
Ming Shu turned. “Give me the Apocalypse.”
Qi Yu handed it over without any hesitation.
Ming Shu leaned over and kissed him on the cheek. “Don’t be afraid. I’ll help you beat him.”
Qi Yu: “…” What was he afraid of?
How can a genius be afraid! He had been in all kinds of situations!
But if his wife said that he was afraid…
Then he was afraid.
Qi Yu kissed her back blatantly.
