Destiny is ashes

Chapter 417 It’s true! (13)

"Why do you... guess so?"

An Jing asked carefully, and Huo Qing did not hide anything. He honestly told An Jing all his guesses about himself and Tie Shou. The boy's pupils trembled and his face showed an incredible expression: "Oh my God, your idea..."

An Jing had only one comment on Huo Qing's guess: This idea is too wild, just like how Xuan Tianji, the Holy Ancestor of Dachen, actually started out by selling ditches.

“Hahahaha!” Fu Xie’s sword rang clearly, and he laughed happily: “I have to say, their guess wasn’t wrong!”

"There is not much difference between visitors from other places and the survivors of the ancient ruins. Especially the fact that we opened up the Taixu Channel to leave, there was really no sign at all for the locals, and they couldn't contact you at all, so they would naturally guess your true origins."

"Not to mention, the strength you and I have demonstrated, as well as our research into various methods of cultivation, really don't seem like something that can be cultivated in the wilderness - even if it can be cultivated, it must be a powerful force in the wilderness."

"what."

An Jing also laughed when he heard this: "If you must say so, then I am indeed a legitimate survivor of the ancient times - Fu Xie, aren't you the ancient sword of the ancient times? And I have wisdom, so I might also be a person from the ancient times."

"In this way, from a certain perspective, we are truly the descendants of the ancient immortals."

You can joke around, but Huo Qing's guess shows that An Jing's identity has begun to arouse suspicion from Tie Shou and others. Their guesses are already quite bold and they are unlikely to go any further.

Being stuck here is a good thing for An Jing, but if this rumor spreads, then as other people's investigations become more in-depth, the fact that An Jing can travel through the void may be discovered.

In addition, An Jing also learned from Huo Qing the reasons for a series of actions by Tie Shou and Guiyi Army.

——The Tianxuan Zhenfu in his hand may be of great use in exploring this strange ancient fairy ruins.

The reason why the Luofu Group transported this talisman to Xuanye City was to use it to open certain levels, but it was secretly hijacked by other groups and the Guiyi Army. After many twists and turns, it finally fell into their hands.

There were also factions within the Guiyi Army. The man who gave him the Tianxuan True Talisman was probably not from the same faction as Tieshou and the others. The two sides did not share any information, allowing him to hide.

So An Jing thought about it and felt that he still had to explain: "The organization behind me... is indeed not an ordinary wilderness force. It is normal that the Iron Hand Guiyi Army can't find me."

"But I am not a remnant of the ancient immortals."

"The main reason I came to Xuanye City is to use the resources here to improve my own strength. My hometown didn't give me any tasks... I do want to explore the ancient ruins, but you can see that I'm not in a hurry."

"……indeed."

Huo Qing still believed in An Jing. After hearing An Jing's calm statement, he thought about it carefully and found that the details did prove what An Jing said.

First of all, An Jing's surprise at the existence of the ancient immortal ruins was not fake, and if he was really a remnant, then An Jing would not show so much concern for his "Yi Qi Yang Shen Jue", because the techniques in the hands of the remnants are definitely more numerous and complete than his.

Even if this reason is not sufficient, it is definitely not false that An Jing initially knew nothing about the history of this world - the civilization of the Tianyuan Realm has only weakened, not been completely cut off. Although it has indeed lost a lot of control over the former Dao Court territory and can only retreat to a corner of the safe zone, the overall historical heritage is still clear.

An Jing didn't even know this, so he obviously couldn't be a remnant of the ancient immortals. At most, he was a man from the wilderness with great power and good family education.

"But your inheritance..."

Huo Qing still felt puzzled by some things: "It's really too subtle. It doesn't feel like a wilderness person."

"It's just an ancient martial arts inheritance dug out from the ruins." An Jing wasn't lying. To him, the inheritance of the Tianyi Demon Sect was just an ancient martial arts secret book he had picked up. "Because the spiritual energy in the wilderness is polluted, most of the martial arts are physical training. Don't you think this path doesn't require that much spiritual energy, and is more about pure essence?"

"Besides, I don't just practice martial arts. I also practice Qi training... Of course, I'm not asking you to learn from me. With your talent, it would be better for you to focus on martial arts and formations. Your achievements will definitely not be inferior to others. I believe this."

"Yeah." Huo Qing had a series of doubts answered, and he felt completely relieved.

It was easy to make Huo Qing believe it, because Huo Qing had indeed seen the original An Jing and knew that he did not lie about this, but the suspicion of Tie Shou and others was a bit difficult to deal with.

"Next time I see Tie Shou, I need to be open and honest and have a chat."

An Jing sighed. One lie had to be covered up with more lies. He was unwilling and too lazy to lie, so except for the key information, he basically did not lie. But even so, it was very troublesome.

“It’s too late to buy anything.”

Looking at the time on the water mirror, An Jing realized that he had been chatting with Huo Qing for too long, and Nian Quan's message had also been sent. He had recovered some of his strength and wanted to personally thank the two for their support.

Soon, the two arrived at the emergency room, where Nianquan, Principal He and the doctor were waiting.

Nian Quan was lying on the hospital bed, and the gray-haired doctor was analyzing the data in amazement: "Contestant Nian, your physical data is amazing. We originally believed that you had multiple alien spiritual energies corroding your body. This time it would take at least ten hours to perform a detailed meridian restoration surgery on you. But it turns out that you were not affected by the alien spiritual energy at all. Although your meridians were severely damaged, it was all caused by your own homologous sword energy. Although it will take longer to recuperate, there will be no sequelae."

"Is this your family secret skill? Or a special physique? Excuse me, this skill is very useful in treating various patients..."

"This... can be considered a high-end application of sword intent."

Nian Quan answered with a smile, and what he said was not a lie - An Jing was able to use the sword energy to treat injuries because his magical power of condensing energy into weapons could condense all the energy in his body into killing weapons and penetrate it out of his body, and Nian Quan was able to activate it because he used the sword intent to force out all the strange energy.

When An Jing is activated, the damage to oneself will not be too great, but after using Nian Quan once, one must take good care of oneself.

"That's it."

After hearing this, the doctor felt quite regretful. If it was a skill that only those with sword intent could use, then there was no way to popularize it.

After the doctor confirmed that Nianquan's condition was stable, he said goodbye and left, and Nianquan waved happily to An Jing and Huo Qing: "I got first place!"

"we are the champion!"

"Haha, we are the champions!"

An Jing walked forward and checked Nianquan's injuries. The doctor was right. Apart from some overload damage to his meridians, he did not have any extra erosion injuries. In addition, the spiritual energy in Nianquan's body became more refined, which seemed to be due to his state of mind and the improvement after defeating a strong enemy.

"You are Nianquan's friends, right?"

Principal He stood up slowly from his seat next to the fruit basket. An Jing raised his head and looked at the other person: "Indeed, may I ask who you are..."

"I'm He Yongzhi." He said, "I'm the principal of Xuanye No. 3 Middle School where Nianquan is."
