The mountain wind was too cold.

On the stone steps going up the mountain, the Peaceful Ghost Messenger with a black scarf over his face stood like a statue, more rigid than the divine sculptures in the Sea of Ten Thousand Gods.

"The glory mission has already been issued, why haven’t you gone after him?" She Guyu’s voice suddenly rang out, colder than the mountain wind.

Jiang Wang leapt out from the mirror, which was hidden in Pig Dali’s arms, and brought into the Chai family’s old residence by Pig Dali... these details would not be overlooked.

Logically, Pig Dali was the one who should most prove himself. Yet, he stood still here.

"Ah?" The Peaceful Ghost Messenger was stunned for a moment, as if only then reacting to the question, he said distractedly: "Yellow River Leader, first Inner Mansion, Marquis Wu’an... there are too many people, I don’t know whom to kill."

A thousand words, all summed up into one: don’t know.

Do not know, Dao.

Before encountering the Taiping Taoist, when had Pig Dali ever understood what "Dao" was?

Nothing but muddled, drifting through day by day.

That person named Jiang Wang, maybe he’s a bad person, maybe he’s not.

The Taiping Divine Wind Seal has also disappeared, as if it had existed, as if it never had.

But the sword skills learned from the Taiping Treasure Saber Record still remained.

When the Daozhu’s thoughts descended upon him, that exquisite combat experience could still be recalled.

The feeling of breaking through the Evil Cult for the first time, killing off the evil Evil God... he still remembered.

In his heart, there existed a peaceful cause, but only mundane affairs of power struggle and gain!

What is it that he seeks in this life?

Nothing but..."Atop the Long Night, looking towards the Bright Moon, seeking peace for the common people."

He thought, Taiping Dao must exist, hidden in some corner of this world, the dream of world peace must be realized.

"Indeed." She Guyu seemed to be touched by the Peaceful Ghost Messenger’s reply, simply saying, "There are too many people in this world, too many gods, and too many demons."

"With my strength as such, going would do no good." Pig Dali said, "Then what about you, why don’t you go after him?"

She Guyu’s voice fell upon the stone steps: "To the Demon clan, we are all unforgivable. What’s the difference between him and me?"

She did not hide it as she said, "Of course, he is very dangerous as well, one of the reasons.

They fell into silence again.

Silence continued in the mountain wind, and was broken by the waves in the Sea of Ten Thousand Gods.

That Golden Platform forged by divine power shone brilliantly here. In that brilliant light, two terrifying phantoms were solidifying, a violent wind arose suddenly—

The True Monster was about to descend!

"I want to live." She Guyu suddenly said.

"I want to live, so I killed them all."

"I don’t know why I want to live, but I want to live."

As she said this, holding dual blades, she rose, her body was marked by flowing red patterns, disappearing and reappearing as she leapt outside the Divine Mountain.

Pig Dali thought for a moment, only then realizing She Guyu was answering the question he previously asked—why she slaughtered her kin.

She wants to live.

Not going to participate in hunting down Jiang Wang is also in order to live.

Now with the True Monster descending, immediately deciding to flee was also to live. She naturally had no backing, but with her notorious name, should any True Monster conveniently eradicate her, no one would step forward to speak up.

Wanting to live, a truly simple reason.

As for why wanting to live means slaughtering one’s kin, what the logic in this is, what the specific reasons might be... it seems to no longer matter.

She Guyu merely gave a reply to the Peaceful Ghost Messenger.

She never intended to convince anyone.

...

...

Wanting to live!

Survival is the greatest instinct of life.

Jiang Wang knew he could not match force, couldn’t allow himself to be surrounded, so when the plan to ignite the Heaven Demon Dharma Altar failed, his first choice was to leave the Divine Mountain. As long as the pursuit and evasion unfolded, with different speeds of pursuit, the chance for isolated attacks naturally appeared.

Whether he could seize it, however, was another matter...

The punch from Shujia Lan before dying was truly heavy!

The seal of the Knowledge and Hearing Bell could not be undone, and the series of battle plans associated with it were all declared shattered.

His not yet recovered flesh body once again returned to a severely wounded state.

He used Shujia Lan’s flesh body to restrain Zhu Lanruo, leapt into the air to draw out Lu Qilang’s sword, then turned to fall and escape down the mountain.

Going up or down the mountain didn’t matter, it was merely a decision made on the spot, staying away from the God Enthronement Platform resulted in infinite possibilities.

But whether it was Lu Qilang or Zhu Lanruo, both chosen as Heavenly geniuses, possessing strong will and lacking no combat wisdom, naturally couldn’t always be led by the nose by him.

If Jiang Wang had the advantage of knowing both himself and the enemy when he jumped out of the Red Mirror, after successively killing Shujia Lan and Yang Yu, his tactics were already perceived!

At this moment, Zhu Lanruo stood in the Eternal Youth Spring, a Blood Bead bouncing on the broken string, which laid horizontally in front of her.

She had a pair of eyes that captured cause and effect, in her view, Jiang Wang, though strong, had not yet reached the level of sweeping through the Heavenly List’s Demon Kings.

Yang Yu and Shujia Lan died in succession.

Though Jiang Wang was a reason, though it was also about the Knowledge and Hearing Bell, about their choices in battle, but more so it was the inertia of history!

They had died twice, each time they were retrieved by the stirring of time.

The cause of death was already there, the fruit of death already formed.

Without the continuous interference of the Great Bodhisattva behind them, in this world of Shenxiao, they would eventually be swallowed by the backlash of reversing life and death. Unfortunately, at this moment, the Shenxiao world has no Evil Beyond the Heavens.

The human race’s celestial genius came down from the mountain, she met them halfway up.

The deathly stillness of the Eternal Youth Spring couldn’t nourish her, but it could grant her strength.

The Blood Bead on the broken string, smooth and reflective, even shrunk to reflect the image of that blue-robed monk.

And so the blade light, sword light, spear glow, and flying arrows rising with the sound of the zither... all struck accurately around Jiang Wang, no matter how ethereal and unpredictable his movement technique was, not a single strike missed.
