Chapter 148 The Man Who Disrupts Destiny
Lu Li glanced at Zen Master Manjusri and couldn't help but admire him in his monk seemed to be honest and ignorant of human nature, but he always hit the nail on the head, and his words made everyone let down most of their guard.
It can be said that he is wise but appears foolish.
He added:
"Now that we have come to this, I, Lu Li, will make it clear that no matter what the outcome of the battle is, I will defend this teahouse to the death. This is my sincere statement, and the heavens and the earth can bear witness to it!"
Lu Li said this sincerely because it was the truth. To him, this teahouse was the safest place in the world.
Cheng Sijin was moved and said:
"I knew I was right about you, Mr. Lu! I, Old Cheng, will live and die with you! Isn't he just a demon emperor? If I can cut him with a knife before I die, it will be worth it!"
Beilu Hou Road:
"There's no need to be like this. Maybe the Demon Emperor has never been here. We are just waiting blindly."
Sun Li said firmly:
"I have spies in the Monster Country. From the intelligence I got in the past few days, the Monster Emperor has indeed not returned to the Monster Country."
Everyone was shocked. Some were surprised that Sun Li had such a wide range of connections that he could even plant spies in the Demon Kingdom. Others were shocked that the Demon Emperor would really come.
General Kong Xuan said:
"In fact, if Mr. Lu can guarantee that he can successfully suppress the Demon Emperor, I have a plan. That is to take the initiative to find the Demon Emperor and lure him into this teahouse. It is better than him suddenly showing up and we passively counterattack."
"There is just one difficulty. There is no trace of this demon emperor anywhere to be found."
As soon as he finished speaking, a voice came from outside the teahouse:
“It can be found!”
Old man Tianji came over wearing a bamboo hat with a smile on his face.
When everyone saw him, they all stood up and saluted.
Elder Tianji looked at Lu Li deeply, and then said:
"I should also do my part in this crusade against the Demon Emperor. No matter what your intentions are, it's best not to harm the human race, otherwise I won't let you off easily."
After that, Old Man Tianji took out a hexagram plate from his arms. He stared at the hexagram plate and said:
"I have explored countless secrets of heaven throughout my life, and my body has long been harmed by the way of heaven. I will use my old bones to settle the score one last time."
"I will set up a large formation and use my life span to calculate the whereabouts of the powerful people in the calamity realm, and help you all."
"I also hope that your plan can be implemented successfully."
Mr. Wanshi quickly advised:
"Senior Tianji, you absolutely cannot do that. Although I don't understand the way of Tianji, I also know that if you estimate the cultivation level of someone far beyond yours, your life span will be greatly reduced."
Old Man Tianji smiled, but his voice was firm:
"Don't try to persuade me. I have made up my mind."
He glanced at Lu Li again and said:
"Mr. Lu, since you are good at the way of heavenly secrets, please help me set up the formation, so that we can move faster."
Lu Li stared at Elder Tianji and could only bite the bullet and agree:
"it is good."
Everyone wanted to help, but Old Man Tianji refused, saying that they did not understand the way of Tianji and would only get in the way.
Lu Li and Old Man Tianji walked out of the teahouse. It was dark outside. Lu Li waved his finger and a beam of flame shot out and hung in the air, instantly illuminating an area of a hundred meters.
Old Man Tianji looked at the fireball in the sky, was stunned for a while, and suddenly said to Lu Li:
"In fact, you don't know the way of heaven's secrets at all, right?"
Lu Li was alert and pretended not to know:
"Senior Tianji, what are you talking about? Yesterday we were..." Old Man Tianji sneered:
"Don't pretend. The reason you know everything in the world is because you got this information from somewhere, no matter the past or the future!"
"How should I describe it... To you, we should be the characters in the book, right? Just like the people in "The Legend of the Great Love Immortal" you mentioned, because you have read the whole book, so you know everything about this world!"
"The reason why I can't figure out anything about you is because you are not from this world! Right!"
"How does The Legend of the Great Love Immortal describe people like you... a demon from outer space, right?"
Lu Li's heart was shocked!
At the same time, he was filled with endless murderous intent!
This old man Tianji actually told me his origins! How could I keep him here? !
A sharp look flashed in the old man Tianji's eyes:
"Such a strong murderous aura, haha, young man, your character is still a little lacking. You got angry after just a few words from me. It seems that I was right, at least half right."
Lu Li was shocked and immediately cursed himself for being so impatient!
Old Man Tianji smiled and said:
"Don't be depressed. I read The Biography of the Great Love Immortal and I admire Fang Yuan in it very much. You should also want to be like him, right? It's very difficult!"
Lu Li calmed down and said calmly:
"People like Gu Yue Fang Yuan are beyond our reach, so how can we dare to talk about achieving anything like them?"
Old man Tianji nodded:
"You don't have to worry about me telling anyone. After this calculation, I won't have the chance to speak anymore."
"In fact, I got the inspiration from your book 'The Legend of the Great Love Immortal' last night. You and the demon from outer space you mentioned are so similar."
"Well, after figuring out your origins, I feel relieved."
A strange light flashed across Lu Li's eyes:
"Oh? How do you say this?"
Elder Tianji said:
"When I was young, I followed my master to learn the way of heaven. My master told me that everything in this world is predetermined and destined."
"For those of us who delve into the ways of the heavens, there is a taboo: never interfere with the fate you have calculated."
"I am very obedient, but I am also very conflicted."
"If everything in this world is predetermined, what is the meaning of the way of heaven's secrets?"
"When I have achieved success in my cultivation and have ambitions, I want to do something for the people of this world."
"I have tried to interfere with fate several times because I am not satisfied with the results I have calculated. I think it is unfair. Why don't good people get good rewards, and bad people always have the last laugh?"
"But I failed every time...Finally, I understood the deep meaning of Master's words!"
"Haha, gradually, I retreated to the mountains and forests, and tried not to predict the fate of the world. This can also be considered a kind of escape."
"But one time, I observed destiny and learned that in the near future, the demon race will go to war with the human race. By then, all lives will be devastated, and hundreds of millions of people will die at the hands of the demon race."
"At that time, I just felt desperate and even regretted knowing the result!"
"Because even if I knew, there's nothing I could do or change. Everything would still happen in the end!"
"Until... you showed up!"
Old man Tianji suddenly stared at Lu Li with a complicated look, mixed with expectation and suspicion.
"Lu Li, you disrupted the original destiny!"
