My Father Is Definitely Possessed-Chapter 334 - 190: Caught in the Game, Who Is the True Player? (Part 2)
"Come over and sit."
Luo Xiaochuan didn’t look at Li Hengsheng, he just quietly spoke.
Li Hengsheng walked over to Luo Xiaochuan, watching from a distance, Luo Xiaochuan seemed like an ordinary person. But the closer Li Hengsheng got to Luo Xiaochuan, the more he could feel a mysterious power drifting over Luo Xiaochuan’s body.
It was a feeling that Li Hengsheng found familiar.
It was as though he had felt it on an Immortal from the "Zhao Mountain Gazing at Immortals Map," but it was different.
Complex and mysterious.
Luo Xiaochuan was like an enigma, so profound and without an end in sight.
"Master."
Li Hengsheng bowed respectfully.
"Sit down." Luo Xiaochuan said.
Li Hengsheng looked around, there weren’t any chairs, so he sat on the ground just like Luo Xiaochuan did.
"Did you call me here for something?" Li Hengsheng took the initiative to ask.
"Do you remember how you got into the Mountain Ancient Land?" At this moment, Luo Xiaochuan asked Li Hengsheng a question that caught him off guard.
"I got in through the trials."
Li Hengsheng still remembered how he came with a group to the Mountain Ancient Land to take part in the trials, but his aptitude was too poor, almost not meeting the standards in any aspect.
But in the end, Li Hengsheng still entered Wanzai Peak as a service disciple.
Originally, there were only ten spots for service disciples, and Li Hengsheng had no chance. Out of nowhere, an outer sect elder said they needed more labor at Wanzai Peak, so the spots increased to twelve, allowing Li Hengsheng to sneak in at the last place.
Listening to Li Hengsheng’s answer, Luo Xiaochuan merely smiled.
"I let you in, otherwise, with your scores, how could you have entered Wanzai Peak?" Luo Xiaochuan said with a chuckle.
"Ah?"
Li Hengsheng was somewhat shocked.
Was it Luo Xiaochuan who opened the back door for him?
Thinking back, the whole thing indeed seemed strange, but Li Hengsheng couldn’t understand why.
"Why?"
He was just an ordinary person, why would Luo Xiaochuan let him in?
"The reason doesn’t matter anymore," Luo Xiaochuan did not answer but said: "You let that Blood Leaf from the Longevity Sect go, didn’t you?"
"Disciple admits fault." Li Hengsheng quickly stood up.
"Sit down, sit down."
Luo Xiaochuan raised his hand and pressed down.
"I don’t mean to blame you. Some people are destined not to die at this time, even if you didn’t let him go, he would find another way to leave." Luo Xiaochuan then gazed at his Celestial Derivation Staff and said, "The fate of a person’s life is already predestined, and it’s hard to change. With the power you have now, you can’t turn the tide of his life or death."
This left Li Hengsheng feeling somewhat confused.
"Master, I believe human willpower can overcome destiny, aren’t we martial artists supposed to defy the heavens?" Li Hengsheng pondered for a moment and said to Luo Xiaochuan.
"Hehe." Luo Xiaochuan couldn’t help but laugh: "You boy, do you know what Heaven is? Do you know what destiny is? To defy destiny is not something cultivation alone can do. Not even your master, nor a land god, and even the Cangyuan Realm Master can talk of reversing their fate is simply empty words."
What Luo Xiaochuan said was too esoteric, making it hard for Li Hengsheng to understand.
Luo Xiaochuan did not continue with the topic, but said: "The Blood Leaf can’t just be Lord Zhou, right?"
These words made Li Hengsheng’s heart skip a beat.
Luo Xiaochuan glanced at Li Hengsheng, then continued, "Though I cannot change destiny, I can glimpse it. The Longevity Sect has planted two people in my Mountain Ancient Land, Lord Zhou is one, and the other is known only to you and me. Your efforts to hide her are futile."
"Master, although Lord Zhou told me, I found this whole thing very suspicious, so I wanted to investigate thoroughly before..." Li Hengsheng said hurriedly.
"Then let me tell you, no need to investigate, she is indeed one of the Blood Leaves too." Luo Xiaochuan said calmly, firmly looking at Li Hengsheng, as if seeing through his soul.
Li Hengsheng sat paralyzed on the ground, not wanting to believe it, but the look in Luo Xiaochuan’s eyes forced him to.
Li Hengsheng vaguely recalled what Lord Zhou whispered to him last night.
"The second Blood Leaf... is a disciple from Wanzai Peak, named Lu Qiaoqiao."
The words echoed like thunder in Li Hengsheng’s ears.
His first reaction was disbelief.
Lu Qiaoqiao had already been captured by the Ghost Race, how could she be with the Longevity Sect, how could she be a Blood Leaf?
Lord Zhou was certainly talking nonsense!
However, what Lord Zhou said next made Li Hengsheng fall into doubt.
"Some plans were set long ago, you’re just a pawn in the game. You thought that Lu Qiaoqiao was taken by the Ghost Race, but you didn’t consider that she was part of a scheme to get to the Long Night Ancient Kingdom, including the Destiny Star Hall, Yin Shi Tower, and Yan Dongchen."
"You were only supposed to be an insignificant pawn, but surprisingly, you turned out to be a key. The mission of the Blood Leaf is to capture your soul. If not for me diluting the poison of the Ghost-devouring Rhinoceros Beetle and the concentration of the Ghost Lord’s blood, you would’ve died at Lu Qiaoqiao’s hands."
"Master, what on earth is happening?" At this moment, Li Hengsheng felt as if all hope was lost, like the last glimmer of hope shattered.
