736 Ji Lutianâs Origin, Dealing with the Great Change (1)
Great Qinâs capitalâ¦
The Qin emperor was sitting cross-legged, his pale face flushed.
He had already taken the Essence Cleansing Pill that Zhou Shu had given to Xu Shi, and Xu Shi had sent someone to deliver it as quickly as possible.
It had to be said that the Essence Cleansing Pill was indeed very effective for the Qin emperor.
Great Qinâs imperial cauldron had shattered, and the Qin emperor had been implicated. Now, he had lost more than half of his cultivation, and the meridians in his body were almost torn apart.
If not for the Essence Cleansing Pill, even if he could wake up in this life, he would probably be useless in the future.
But the Essence Cleansing Pill had the effect of a complete transformation and could treat the Qin emperorâs injuries.
Of course, it was impossible for him to recover his first-rank Martial Dao cultivation. He would have to cultivate it back himself in the future.
The Qin emperor was already satisfied with the current effect. After all, he had already been prepared to die.
Suddenly, the Qin emperor opened his eyes and shouted, âWho is it?!â
A breeze blew past, and a figure suddenly appeared in front of him.
âYouâve lost most of your cultivation, yet you still have such sharp senses. Qin Emperor, with your aptitude, even if you cultivated step by step back then, you could have still become a first-rank martial artist. Why did you take a shortcut and use the imperial cauldron?â Zhou Shu looked at the Qin emperor.
âSo, itâs you.â The Qin emperor heaved a sigh of relief. He and Zhou Shu had only met a few times, and the process of their previous meeting was not very pleasant.
But when he saw Zhou Shu, the Qin emperor felt an inexplicable sense of security. He didnât know where this feeling came from.
âI didnât expect you to really return from the Demon Realm,â the Qin emperor said.
âI didnât expect it either,â Zhou Shu said. âQin Emperor, I didnât come to chat with you.â
âI know. Thereâs nothing to chat about between you and me,â the Qin emperor said. âTell me. Why are you looking for me? I owe you my life now. If thereâs anything you need, just tell me. If I can do it, I wonât decline.â
Without Zhou Shuâs Essence Cleansing Pill, the Qin emperor would have been useless in the future. With his pride, it was impossible for him to accept such an outcome. In the end, he would have just killed himself.
Therefore, it wasnât an exaggeration to say that he owed Zhou Shu his life.
âYouâre exaggerating. I just came over to ask you something.â Zhou Shu shook his head. âDo you still remember Ji Lutian?â
âYou want to know about Ji Lutian?â The Qin emperor understood. How could he not remember Ji Lutian?
Speaking of which, the destruction of Great Qinâs imperial cauldron was related to Ji Lutian.
If not for Ji Lutianâs plan a hundred years ago, Great Qinâs imperial cauldron wouldnât have been damaged in the first place. If Great Qinâs imperial cauldron hadnât been damaged, it wouldnât have shattered under the attacks of the demonic beasts.
If Great Qinâs imperial cauldron hadnât shattered, he wouldnât have been injured.
But then again, without Ji Lutianâs plan back then, it wouldnât have been so easy for the Qin emperor to become the number one person in the Ten Nations.
âYes.â Zhou Shu nodded. âI think you should know what happened in front of the barrier between the two worlds. You know Ji Lutian better than me. I want to know his true origin!â
Now, anyone with a discerning eye wouldnât believe that Ji Lutian was just the Great Qin forger Ji Lutian. Or rather, Ji Lutian already wasnât an ordinary person back then.
âI know.â The Qin emperor nodded. âJi Lutianâs cultivation back then had already surpassed the first rank of the Martial Dao. If not for this, why would Great Qin have bet on an opportunity with the destiny of a nation?n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
âActually, when we chose to cooperate with Ji Lutian back then, Great Qin already thought of the possibility of failure.
âYou are the Side-by-side King of Great Qin. You are qualified to know about Ji Lutian.â
As the Qin emperor spoke, he slowly stood up. âFollow me.â
The Qin emperor emphasized that Zhou Shu was Great Qinâs Side-by-side King to convince himself.
After all, everything about Ji Lutian was a secret of the Great Qin imperial family. A hundred years later, only the Qin emperor knew the truth of this secret.
Even Xu Shi and the officials of Great Qin only knew the modified story.
The Qin emperor walked in front of a wall and swiped his hand across it. With a rustling sound, the wall parted, revealing a dark hole.
The Qin emperor gestured to Zhou Shu and walked in.
Zhou Shu didnât hesitate and followed the Qin emperor in.
After walking down hundreds of steps, Zhou Shuâs eyes lit up. He found that they had arrived at an underground space.
The space was not big, only four or five steps long and wide. On the walls, there was a row of priceless night pearls. Other than these things, there was only a table and a chair in the middle of the space. On the table were a few thick books.
âThis is all the information related to Ji Lutian that the Great Qin imperial family has.â The Qin emperor pointed at the books on the table. âEver since the late emperor met Ji Lutian, weâve been secretly investigating his background. Although weâve gained something, we havenât gained much.
âYou can read it yourself. You might find what you need.
âBut I advise you not to get your hopes up. Ji Lutian is not an ordinary person. He might have deliberately let me obtain this information.â
The Qin emperor was a sensible person. He knew about Ji Lutianâs mysteriousness from the beginning, but in order to become stronger, he chose to take the risk.
