Destiny is ashes

Chapter 203 Life-Nourishing Device (33)

In fact, it is easy to understand Aunt Huai’s identity.

If we say that Kanming City is a big city controlled by the Tianyi Demon Cult, then in fact, the underground veins of this city are also controlled by the Demon Cult.

If that is the case, how could Aunt Huai, who can live in a geocentric node and rely on the geocentric veins for survival, have no connection with the Demon Cult?
Plus, the smell of medicine on his body was so familiar, An Jing should have reacted long ago.

The other party's initial reaction indeed confirmed An Jing's guess - the owner of the medicine shop and the Wei Yang Fist were indeed acquaintances of Aunt Huai, and even extraordinary acquaintances!

It can only be said that no matter how normal the people of Tianyi Demon Cult may appear on the outside, they are completely different from ordinary people... They are not sad at all when such a close person died. This is their indifference like "heaven".

"Son, I'm not crazy."

As if she had noticed An Jing's confusion, Aunt Huai shifted her gaze away from the brass knuckle fragments. Her eyes were calm, without any resentment, only relief.

She said softly, "Brother Feng (Deputy Medicine Envoy) has already fallen into the evil path, making one mistake after another. His crimes are unforgivable. He deserves to die at the hands of anyone, let alone a good child like you."

The old lady looked at An Jing calmly and smiled gently: "If you can cut him into pieces, I will be happy because this is God's will, his fate."

"And I was saved by him when I was a child. I will pray for him for his kindness at that time... That's all."

"As for Xiao Shu."

Turning her head, Aunt Huai looked at the fragments of the brass knuckles and said in a complicated tone, "He has always been a good person...but his parents are evil people who have fallen into evil ways and offered their son to join the religion."

"He is a sacrifice of the religion of God, and he is a man of the religion of God."

"He has always done a good job. Although he has been working for the Church of God, he has not helped the evil, but has been conscientious in doing everything he should do..."

"For example, hunting down a defector like me?" An Jing had been silent until now. When he heard this, he raised his eyebrows and looked at the old lady seriously: "The establishment of Xuanming Manor in this deep mountain near the border must have been due to his contribution."

"He may not be a pure evil person, but he is definitely not a good person either... He cannot escape the accusation of aiding and abetting evil."

"Maybe." Aunt Huai did not refute An Jing's statement. She just expressed her own thoughts: "It's just that children, you and I were born into this world. Can we make our own choices?"

"As long as you are alive, even if you are just alive... you may help evil."

"People are not born by their own will, it can only be God's will. And how to walk your own path under God's will... is the answer that the Divine Religion wants to find."

"Excuse me...can you show me this fragment?"

Aunt Huai asked with some sadness, and An Jing silently handed her the brass knuckle fragment, causing the old woman to thank him repeatedly: "Thank you, thank you..."

Holding the pieces of the brass knuckles in her hands, Aunt Huai stared at them and stroked them gently: "I didn't know what happened to Xiao Shu before, but now I finally know..."

An Jing felt it... Through Instructor Li's words before his death and Aunt Huai's words, he could vaguely guess what the original teachings of the Tianyi Demon Cult were.

——From the endless complexity of the universe, find the true "my intention". This original intention hidden among many distracting thoughts is the "God" that guides me.

——And what can lead me to follow my will is not enough to rely on my own efforts. This unpredictable opportunity and the path I walk together is "heaven". This is "heaven's will".

Follow my will, walk my path, and tread my path.

Act in accordance with your innate character, pursue your own goals, walk on the path shown to you by 'God', and eventually become your 'true self', which is the so-called 'will of God'.

It has to be said that this set of doctrines can even be said to be [positive], at most it is a bit [unkind] and not beneficial [to the public].

But why did the Church of God's Will become the Devil Cult of God's Will?

"Jingxuan, although the old lady is also a member of the Tianyi Sect, it is very likely that..."

At the same time, You Ruhui also came over and whispered to An Jing about Aunt Huai's past.

At this point, You Ruhui has roughly guessed An Jing's true identity.

After all, she is a very smart person, but she has lived in the deep palace for many years and is ignorant of human relationships.

But from the few words exchanged between An Jing and Aunt Huai, she could fully understand that this 'Chenli Genius' in front of her actually had a great connection with the Demon Cult...

He even killed those Demon Cult owners and the "defectors" who escaped from the Demon Cult's training grounds!
And all the acquaintances that Aunt Huai knew, more or less, died at the hands of Jingxuan!
But this group of people got together.

It’s fate and coincidence…but it’s only natural.

While You Ruhui was sighing, he couldn't help but realize something: No wonder he is so confident and so strong... If he can fight his way out of the Tianyi Demon Cult, he can naturally defeat the Zhen Demon Cult!
But strangely, Aunt Huai was not angry about this, and An Jing also behaved unusually calmly.

"Resurrection and borrowing energy... I see, this is your fate."

After knowing all this, An Jing looked at Aunt Huai again, his eyes suddenly realizing: "The fate of the owner of the medicine manor is also to return to the soul and borrow energy - and the core of the blood pill medicine, the fate carried by the 'treasure vessel', is also to return to the soul and borrow energy!"

An Jing understood, and even understood why Aunt Huai was so kind and helpful even though she was in the Demon Sect.

"They want to use you to nourish the treasure tripod... They are keeping you alive just to wait for you to die!"

He murmured to himself, and his eyes turned sharp as he looked at Aunt Huai: "So that's how it is, Aunt Huai, you are the 'artificial life instrument' they have been raising all this time!"

Aside from those that are naturally created, the most common life instrument is "after the death of the person who holds the life, his spirit, soul and mind are placed in an object, forming a life instrument."

Aunt Huai has been helping others for many years and has a strong destiny. No matter she dies of natural causes or in an accident, as long as she dies, her spirit will inevitably condense into an object she uses in her daily life under the influence of the veins of Kanming City, and that object... will become a brand new 'life-supporting dish'!
Once Aunt Huai dies, her fate and destiny instrument will become the core of the Tianyi Demon Cult to open a new "Xuanming Manor"!

"Even, Auntie." After understanding everything, An Jing said in a deep voice: "Haven't you ever thought that... the source of all your suffering is a little too coincidental?"

"The entire caravan was almost wiped out, and you were the only child who survived with an awakened destiny. At that moment, the Northern Patrol arrived and saved you."

"Don't you think this is all too coincidental, like something that was planned?"
