Volume 5: The Mystery of Shamo Chapter 80 There is a mystery in the dark
Mo Yi's eyelids twitched heavily. Although he had guessed the other party's identity the moment the Sky-Splitting Ruler was used, even though he had made countless speculations about what his father's trump card was, he never guessed that it would be the person in front of him!
How could it be him?!
In fact, as early as when he appeared in the world, Mo Yi had already felt that this Zhuo Wei was somewhat unusual. This person gave him a very familiar feeling from the beginning, but he could not find this person in his memory. Moreover, the motives of Zhuo Wei's actions were extremely strange. He did not seem like an ordinary member of the Nayu tribe. But just now, when his Sky-Splitting Ruler was used, Mo Yi finally understood the true identity of this person.
Yu Cheng.
This is someone he doesn't want to face, but has to face.
The depths of his memories kept churning. This person was closer to Mo Yi than his father, Mo Wutan. After his mother's death, his father became a distant and unfamiliar person to him, but the person in front of him had been with him throughout his long and lonely childhood and adolescence.
They were once thrown into the glacier of Mobei together to accept the trial of the God of Mobei, and they also went through mountains of swords and seas of fire together to complete various inhuman trials of the Nayu tribe. This person can barely be regarded as one of the few people in the world that Mo Yi can trust, and it is also the one who finally fulfilled Mo Yi's eternal life with his own life.
But why was this person here? If he was the reincarnation of that person, why did he hide his identity when he first appeared in this world? Why did he pretend not to know me ?
Mo Yi absolutely did not believe that it was a coincidence or accident. How many secrets and calculations were hidden behind this?
Suddenly, he remembered all the things that had happened before, even including their first encounter as Zhuo Wei, and how he later guided himself and Gong Lili back to the Xu Ming Realm. Mo Yi's heart suddenly became as cold as ice. It turned out that everything was a carefully set up game.
Mo Yi had always been a man who fought bravely and dealt with any challenge head-on. He wasn't particularly averse to these so-called plots and conundrums, but now, he felt blood rushing to his throat. Why him? Why this close friend from five hundred years ago? Why?! A strange rage surged through him, and his breathing quickened!
"Yu Cheng, why is it you!" The 'Dragon Slaying Roar' in his hand seemed to be infected by Mo Yi's anger. The ice-blue dragon suddenly became violent, and the solemn and vast majesty immediately enveloped the four directions, as if an eternal god was overlooking the world!
The other party smiled awkwardly and said, "I thought you would be a little happy to see me, your good friend who has returned from the dead. After all, we haven't seen each other for five hundred years."
"You shouldn't be here in this identity!" Mo Yi's words were as sharp as a blade cutting through the wind, and his expression became increasingly gloomy.
Yu Cheng laughed dryly twice, but asked in return: "Then what identity do you think I should appear in? Or should I be like those people, ignorant and knowing nothing?" When he said this, he was pointing at the unconscious Nayu people.
This was a very sharp remark, leaving Mo Yi speechless. Perhaps Mo Yi had never thought that after Yu Cheng fell into reincarnation in this world, he would still carry the memories of his past life, just as he had never tried to find him in this world, because Mo Yi felt that the past was the past, and everything in the past life was just a burden.
Since he was reincarnated, he should live a good life again and not be burdened by the things in his past life. So Mo Yi did not want Yu Cheng to remember the past five hundred years ago, but the fact is that Yu Cheng was reincarnated again, and he still retained, or had, the memories of five hundred years ago. Why is this?
Someone deliberately awakened or imposed on him the memories of his past life.
But when did he regain his memory? Mo Yi carefully sorted through his memories and quickly sorted out a rough outline in his mind.
If he guessed correctly, when he first met Zhuo Wei in the present world, Zhuo Wei, or Yu Cheng at that time, actually had no memory of his previous life. At that time, he was just a simple reincarnation of the Nayu tribe, so he fought with him.
But later, after Gong Lili's memory was awakened, Zhuo Wei contacted him privately one night, told him some secrets of the past, and told him the way to return to the Xu Ming World. Thinking about it now, Mo Yi was almost certain that it was at that time that Yu Cheng had already recovered his memory. The way to return to the Xu Ming World was probably deliberately revealed to him by someone with ulterior motives, in order to let him bring Gong Lili back to the Xu Ming World.
This made Mo Yi start to wonder, could it be that his arrival in the modern world, and even his encounter with Gong Lili, wasn't accidental? Was it someone's deliberate act?
I had never thought of such a thing before. I originally thought that everything was accidental. Now looking back, those accidents were actually carefully calculated. From the fact that I didn't know why I was stranded in the human world, to finding Qing Lili, and then taking her back to the underworld, all the things in between, if viewed separately, seemed very natural and smooth. However, if you think about it again, it seems like a play that was arranged perfectly . Step by step, it seems to be following a certain trajectory!
Wait, Mo Yi felt that he seemed to be grasping some key point. If there really was a driving force behind the scenes, then what was the real purpose of this driving force?
Mo Yi looked at Yinglili who was not far away, and suddenly realized that the key point was him and Yinglili~!
He and Gong Lili were important and indispensable characters in this elimination. From the beginning to the end, many things, including many things surrounding Tianshi, seemed to be deliberately tying him and her together, including his and Gong Lili, and even Yao Ji's feelings, which seemed to have been calculated long ago.
Or, could we make a bolder assumption, that perhaps my encounter with Yao Ji five hundred years ago wasn't accidental, but rather the result of a deliberate arrangement by someone with ulterior motives?
Who is that person with ulterior motives?
Could it be his father? No, his father alone couldn't do it. The most his father could do was to give Yu Cheng memories of his past life, or even use him to tell him how to return to the Netherworld.
The rest of the things were not something that his father could do alone. Even his meeting with Yao Ji five hundred years ago could not have been arranged by his father.
Thinking of his first encounter with Yao Ji, Mo Yi suddenly remembered that his mother had instructed him before she passed away, saying that he should go to Yonghui City when he was sixteen years old. He remembered that his mother said that there was the only and last gift she left for him.
Mo Yi had always thought that the so-called gift was Zhuo Ao's martial arts inheritance. Now that he thought about it, could the so-called gift be referring to Yao Ji?
Could it be that my mother had already calculated this before she died, or in other words, arranged for me and Yao Ji to meet?
This speculation struck Mo Yi like lightning. No, it was impossible. Such a thing was too absurd, just like a fairy tale. However, Mo Yi suddenly remembered that his mother seemed to be the "Sky Speaker" in the legend of the Nayu tribe, that is, a person who could predict the future and flatter the will of heaven.
Although Mo Yi didn't believe those rumors at all, it was not impossible that someone had arranged everything more than five hundred years ago, just like what Zhuo Ao had done for his mother.
Wait, Zhuo Ao?!
Yes, Zhuo Ao! Mo Yi's mind suddenly became clear. It seemed that this great master had done a lot in the past.
But, is his purpose really just for the Heavenly Stone?
Furthermore, was his father truly unaware of what Zhuo Ao had done? Looking at his former best friend, Mo Yi's mind gradually began to form even wilder speculations. Was his father truly clueless about Zhuo Ao's affairs? Or had he known something long before, and was deliberately playing along?
But there is one thing that Mo Yi is convinced of, Zhuo Ao and his father are definitely not in the same group. Both of them are extremely aloof and arrogant people, and as rivals in love, they will definitely not join forces. So, what is his father's purpose?
Just when Mo Yi was finally starting to piece together the myriad things in his mind, Yu Cheng suddenly said, "Yi, you disappoint me."
Mo Yi subconsciously raised his eyebrows, curled his thin lips slightly, and had a slightly mocking expression, as if he had heard something ridiculous, and did not respond.
Yu Cheng didn't seem to expect Mo Yi's answer. He continued to talk on his own: "Do you remember what the biggest taboo of us Nayu people is? It's emotions. We Nayu people never need those useless things. I remember that five hundred years ago, you were not such a sentimental person. I didn't expect that you are getting worse and worse now. You actually went to this extent for a woman!" He paused slightly, and suddenly stretched out a finger, pointing Yinglili in the golden light shield not far away: "That girl has become your biggest weakness! You will never be able to surpass the clan leader like this!"
"Whether she is my weakness or not has nothing to do with you, and you don't need to tell me." Mo Yi interrupted him coldly: "What I want to know is why you are here! I want to know your purpose!"
"My goal is to kill her." Yu Cheng looked at Mo Yi steadily, and suddenly smiled awkwardly. The expression on his face was extremely playful, as if he was deliberately provoking Mo Yi.
