Chapter 533: Start with Debating

Translator: TransnEditor: Transn

The fallen knights supported each other to patch their wounds. They all became alert and rancorous when they saw the black carriage.

They rushed down the mountain like a thunder, but in the end, they were even unable to touch the carriage. The worst part of it was that they had lost a companion's life and received multiple injuries. It was unacceptable for them who were at the Seethrough Realm.

The rain was still falling. Inside the Red Lotus Temple there was chaos and the carriage was drenched.

Ning Que had gone back inside and closed the roof. He watched Long Qing through the window and suddenly remembered something. Then he asked, ”Hey, how did you survive?”

Long Qing opened his eyes and answered, ”That's a long story.”

Ning Que raised his head to look at the sky and said, ”In that case, maybe I won't be able to hear the whole story.”

Only during the time before the Jing Fu disappeared could Ning Que listen to the story. Once the Jing Fu disappeared, the man who told the story and the man who listened would have to return to their original identities— bitter enemies. The Jing Fu in the rain was no longer horrible. Instead, it brought a temporary peace or balance.

”You can recognize me even if I am wearing a mask and you are so interested in my story. It is reasonable for people to say that we are a couple of fateful enemies.

Prince Long Qing said, ”Since this is so, I naturally could not allow for you to be Mr. Thirteen from the Academy, the only successful person at the top, so I came back.”

Ning Que ironically said, ”Don't think I would be in awe of you because you have reached the Knowing Destiny State. You know, back at my place, there are so many students who are at the Knowing Destiny State, as many as cabbages.”

Long Qing said calmly, ”I'm not an ordinary man at the Knowing Destiny State. I think you've already felt it.”

Ning Que indeed felt something odd on Long Qing, which was more powerful than ordinary the Knowing Destiny State, so he laughed and said, ”An unordinary cabbage is still a cabbage.”

Looking at the mask on Long Qing's face, he stopped smiling and said, ”What the hell happened to you?”

Long Qing began to tell the story of the things that happened in these years.

This was a very long story, but he chose the simplest language to describe it. Only by a few keywords could Ning Que figure out how cruel and sad the story was.

His tone was calm, without any emotional changes, as if he was telling someone else's story.

In fact, he wasn't willing to tell anybody about this, but Ning Que meant something to him. So, he needed Ning Que to know what he had lost and regained before he died.

This was a spiritual need.

The fallen knights had known their Priest's story, but they didn't know the details, so they all listened carefully and were somehow touched.

”A nice story but a little old fashioned.”

Ning Que coldly and uncharitably commented.

However, Long Qing didn't care.

”I don't believe in the so-called fateful enemies. Or you could say I don't believe you can successfully claim revenge for all the humiliations you have suffered, after you went through those difficulties and came back to the world.”

Ning Que said, ”Your two humiliations came from me. If you are able to take revenge, how can I face myself?”

Long Qing said, ”Since you are going to die, why do you care about that?”

Ning Que said, ”But I won't die.”

Long Qing said, ”I am the one Haotian chose and I own the Manifest Destiny. I shall not die, so you must die.”

Ning Que looked at him and suddenly felt a chill. Then he remembered what Second Brother had said to Liu Yiqing, so he asked, ”Can you prove that?”

”It's Haotian's will. I don't need to prove it to mortals.”

The answer was boring.

Ning Que ironically looked at him.

Long Qing said, ”If I said I had a Heavenly Power Pill, could it serve as proof?”

”Is the Heavenly Power Pill very rare?” Said Ning Que.

Long Qing nodded honestly.

Ning Que suddenly smiled and said, ”I had one a few years ago.”

He flashed an unkindly smile.

His voice was cold.

”I can also tell you that there are a large number of Heavenly Power Pills in Chen Pipi's hand. If we need to, we can eat them like fried beans. What does it prove? Can it prove that we are the illegitimate children of Haotian?”

Although he knew that was not the truth, Long Qing could not help changing his face.

He could be as calm as water and as cold as ice, or even crueler than anyone else in the world, but he became irritable under the Ning Que's mocking attacks.

Ning Que continued, ”You and your fallen knights have killed so many people that the West-Hill Divine Palace has to hunt down all of you. How dare you consider yourself as the chosen one. Don't you think that's funny? It's just your mental masturbation.”

After a long silence, Long Qing said, ”Maybe you are right. Maybe I am not the chosen person. I think I am the Son of Yama, so I suffered a lot and still was able to see hope in the dark. But eventually I may sink to the bottom of the endless abyss.”
