Volume 2: Achieving the Nine Heavens and Breaking the Cage Chapter 599: Original Intention
"…If I break this oath, I will never be happy again!"
The moment this sentence appeared in Gu Xiaoxing's mind, it was like a seed that fell into his heart.
This seed is the Tao, but also the catastrophe!
Gu Xiaoxing's Tao is to become a more worry-free and happier person, but at this moment he swears on the happiness of his life, which is equivalent to a Tao oath!
If he fails to fulfill this oath, then this seed will eventually turn into a calamity, a calamity that will make Gu Xiaoxing suffer from eternal suffering!
On the side, Mo Xuyou thought that Gu Xiaoxing would be furious, and was even prepared for him to attack at any time.
But unexpectedly, Gu Xiaoxing looked very quiet, eerily quiet!
On the contrary, it was this kind of silence that made Mo Xuyou even more uneasy. Looking at Gu Xiaoxing, he inexplicably felt a trace of... fear !
All the might and power was withdrawn, and Gu Xiaoxing seemed to be no different from before.
But if someone is familiar with Gu Xiaoxing, they will find that at this moment, there is a hint of indifference in his eyes that was not there before.
Gu Xiaoxing looked at Mo Xuyou again and said, "I will deal with Ling'er's matter later, so let's not talk about it for now. I came here this time to talk about you."
"Talking about me?" Mo Xuyou was stunned.
Gu Xiaoxing nodded, then looked directly into her eyes and said, "Do you know... who you are?"
Mo Xuyou's pupils shrank, and the look in her eyes when she looked at Gu Xiaoxing changed, but she didn't say anything.
Seeing that she didn't say anything, Gu Xiaoxing continued, "I once saw a corpse in the memory of the Suzaku spirit. You and her... are very similar, just like the same person. I don't think this is a coincidence!"
"It's not a coincidence." Mo Xuyou spoke.
"The person you saw is called... You Youyan, my mother."
Gu Xiaoxing was startled when he heard this, and then stunned.
You know, the picture that Gu Xiaoxing saw from the Vermillion Bird's soul was tens of thousands of years ago. He thought that Mo Xuyou was at most the descendant of that corpse, but he didn't expect that it would be Mo Xuyou's biological mother!
So, doesn't that mean Mo Xuyou has already lived for countless tens of thousands of years?
That's not right!
Gu Xiaoxing suddenly recalled that Master Guan once said that Mo Xuyou was only about a thousand years old. Isn't this completely wrong?
As if he saw Gu Xiaoxing's confusion, Mo Xuyou's eyes suddenly showed a bit of loneliness and he spoke slowly.
"She is indeed my mother. She gave birth to me countless thousands of years after her death."
Gu Xiaoxing was speechless. He had once dreamt about a dead person. It seemed reasonable for a dead person to give birth to a child after countless tens of thousands of years... What a ghost!
Can a child born from a dead person still be a normal child?
Now, it was Gu Xiaoxing who found Mo Xuyou a little creepy.
"It seems that you already know a lot. Tell me everything you know. In return, I will tell you something you don't know."
Gu Xiaoxing saw Mo Xuyou's reflection in his eyes and looked at her deeply. After a slight hesitation, he began to tell her "everything" he knew.
This "everything" does not include some of Gu Xiaoxing's own secrets.
For example, the matter of the Yu Dao True Spirit taking over another's body was almost Gu Xiaoxing's biggest secret. He didn't even tell Dongfang Yu, let alone Mo Xuyou.
But apart from some of his own secrets, Gu Xiaoxing told almost everything.
For example, some things about Jiu Ming Mountain and the strange and magnificent pictures that he saw in the memory of Suzaku's soul, the ancient fairyland, and the sun-catching giant!
Even the dream about the dead person was told out by Gu Xiaoxing.
Mo Xuyou just listened without saying anything, but the more he listened the more shocked he became. It turned out that he already knew so much!
Especially when she heard at the end that "Hengyang is fire, Fanlong is furnace, Jiutianyu is elixir", she was surprised, but also a hint of sadness appeared in her eyes.
Only after Gu Xiaoxing finally finished speaking did Mo Xuyou sigh and slowly say, " Most of what you said, including your guesses, is true."
"Eternally, the True Ancient Immortal Realm was just like the Primordial Realm, an endlessly vast and prosperous cultivation world..."
"The Hengyang Continent you see is called the Ancient Continent, and it is the center of the Ancient True World..."
"And the one who destroyed the ancient world and the ancient continent was the Sun-Picking Giant... my father!"
Although Gu Xiaoxing had some guesses, he still couldn't help but be shocked when he heard the answer.
Sure enough, it was the Sun-Picking Giant who destroyed the ancient true world.
"Why does he want to destroy the ancient true world?" asked Gu Xiaoxing.
Mo Xuyou glanced at Gu Xiaoxing and said, "Because the True Ancient Immortal Realm wants to destroy him."
This time, Mo Xuyou did not give him a chance to speak, and continued: "In the ancient world at that time, there was one continent and four seas."
"And my father was originally just a disciple of a small sect in the First Sea. Later, due to an opportunity, he gradually rose to become a genius of his generation and led his people to glory."
"But it was that chance that killed him!"
"Rumor has it that this is an opportunity to enter the fourth ancient realm!"
Hearing this, Gu Xiaoxing couldn't help but hold his breath.
The fourth ancient realm, this is a realm that Gu Xiaoxing dared not even imagine.
As far as he knew, only the True Spirit of Yu Dao had reached this realm in the First Era.
And Mo Xuyou's father actually had such a miraculous opportunity.
"I believe you have guessed the result. Who wouldn't be tempted by the fourth ancient realm? At that time, my father had just entered the third ancient realm, but he had to face the joint siege of the four great Daohais."
"That battle lasted for a very long time. My mother died in the battle, as did countless members of our clan..."
"And in the end, my father discovered that the opportunity was set up by someone... a trap!"
Having said this, the sadness in Mo Xuyou's eyes deepened.
"But it's too late...!"
"After losing everything, my father was possessed by the person who set up the trap using shocking means. The purpose of the person who set up the trap was to destroy the ancient world from the beginning!"
"He calls himself... Zed!"
At this moment, Gu Xiaoxing could no longer hold back the throbbing in his heart, because in the dream of the dead, Gu Xiaochen had also said that he was life and death, as well as calamity!
It's hard for Gu Xiaoxing not to make a connection between the two!
“But my father had already entered the Third Ancient Realm for many years. It would not be easy for the person who set up the scheme to take over my body.”
"However, my father knew that he was powerless to resist, so in the end, he borrowed a passing cage and wanted to use the True Ancient Eternal Yang Fire to refine the Nine Revolutions Returning Yang Pill to revive my mother."
“But when he was halfway through refining the Nine Transformations to Rejuvenate the Yang Pill, he discovered me inside my mother’s corpse…!”
"In the end, my father did not continue to refine the Nine Transformations Rejuvenating Pill, but chose me instead."
"After my mother died, he used the Imperial Dao Furnace as a placenta and the constant yang as nourishment, allowing me to be nurtured in the Imperial Dao Furnace for tens of millions of years..."
"Finally, with the help of my master, I was able to survive!"
Mo Xuyou looked at Gu Xiaoxing, his eyes red, "This is everything I know from the memories of my mother's corpse!"
Gu Xiaoxing took a deep breath. Although the amount of information was huge, he connected everything together. The past events of the True Ancient Immortal Realm were clearly presented in front of him.
Just looking at Mo Xuyou with red eyes, Gu Xiaoxing suddenly felt that her figure seemed a little thinner than before.
But Gu Xiaoxing did not feel any sympathy or pity in his heart. Rather, he felt more of a sense of sympathy.
One of them crawled out of a corpse, and the other was transformed from an inch of incense ash, born to be the cauldron for the rebirth of the Yudao True Spirit.
They...have no choice.
Mo Xuyou slowly closed her eyes, and when she opened them again, the red in her eyes had disappeared.
"As for Master's affairs, I know no more than you do. You will have to ask her yourself when the time comes."
"Who is the giant guarding outside the cage?"
"His clone."
Gu Xiaoxing knew that the "he" that Mo Xuyou mentioned was not her father, but the person who took over her father's body!
Endless years have passed, perhaps her father is no longer with us!
"No, he's still here!"
Suddenly, Mo Xuyou spoke in a decisive tone as if he had seen through Gu Xiaoxing's thoughts.
Gu Xiaoxing looked straight into Mo Xuyou's determined gaze, and at this moment he suddenly understood why the other party wanted to leave the cage so much.
The so-called going home probably means returning to the ancient world to find her father.
This is undoubtedly an extremely stupid decision.
It has been tens of thousands of years since Fan Long left the True Ancient Immortal Realm, and no one knows how far he has wandered.
Not to mention whether Mo Xuyou can go back, even if she goes back, is her father still her father?
But it is precisely this kind of stupid decision that is often more difficult to refute.
It is the nature of moths to fly into the flame and move towards the light.
But when people go to die, they follow their heart.
Mo Xuyou knew better than anyone how difficult this journey was, but she still went ahead without hesitation.
This is the essential difference between her and the moth, so no one can stop her.
"We can't choose life, but we can at least try to choose this life. I promise to help you break the cage!"
Gu Xiaoxing stood up and bowed deeply to Mo Xuyou.
"Ling'er and Yanran, thank Youtian for taking care of you over the years!"
After saying that, Gu Xiaoxing turned around and left.
Mo Xuyou looked at Gu Xiaoxing's back, not knowing if it was an illusion, but in a trance, she seemed to see the back of her father in her mother's memory!
As soon as he walked out of the tower, Gu Xiaoxing saw Dongfang Yu standing outside the door, looking at him with ill intent.
"Aren't you going to visit Zhu Tian? Why did you end up in her tower?"
"Not only did you get in, but you also isolated yourself from all directions. You can do it, Gu...Xiao...Xing!"
At the end of his speech, Dongfang Yu almost gritted his teeth, and it was obvious that he wanted to bite someone again.
In her eyes, not only Qiao Yanran is a vixen, her master Mo Xuyou is just as bad!
But seeing that Gu Xiaoxing didn't show a guilty look as usual, but just stood there looking at him, Dongfang Yu couldn't help but be stunned.
Then he stepped forward and said, "I'm talking to you, give me some reaction!"
Lone Star grinned.
Dongfang Yu frowned: "What are you laughing at?"
"I'm happy to see you."
"Stop smiling at me!"
"hey-hey……!"
"Don't laugh, come with me to Haotian City for a stroll!"
"Do you know why I'm looking for Zhu Tian?"
"Why?"
"because……!"
"???"
The two figures are walking further and further away...!
