All Heavenly destiny reduced to ashes
Chapter 132 - 131: Heaven’s Will Child

Chapter 132: Chapter 131: Heaven’s Will Child

"I understand."

An Jing stood calmly in front of Instructor Li, waiting for the latter to catch his breath.

The person before him had, from the beginning, given An Jing an exceptionally large sum of servitude fee, and likewise, without Instructor Li’s favor and recommendation, Master of the Medicine Manor wouldn’t have taken a special interest in An Jing when he first arrived at Hanging Fate Manor.

Although An Jing would have attracted attention with his own abilities later on, without a doubt, Instructor Li had been one of his greatest supporters from start to finish.

The subsequent chase alongside the White-robed Scholar was also thanks to him, Instructor Li indeed had a lot of fate intertwined with An Jing.

Even... An Jing had a speculation in his mind.

"I will kill you before the Heavenly Demon completely erodes you."

So, An Jing spoke, "Tell me now, how is the situation with the Evil Born Demon?"

"It’s doing very well, a single slap from it could kill dozens of Inner Breath Martial Artists like you."

After spitting out that mouthful of black blood, Instructor Li’s complexion turned abnormally rosy, clearly a sign of a brief resurgence before death.

And to scare An Jing away, his words were an exaggeration: "Let’s not talk about the Red Armored Guards, nearly ten peak Martial Meridian Grandmasters and others with Inner Strength like Tide from the Divine Sect’s local forces have died, and we even lost one Martial Meridian Grandmaster in battle!"

"Believe my last words, you better run away as soon as possible!"

"A Martial Meridian Grandmaster actually took action?"

An Jing, as if he hadn’t heard the intimidating tone in Instructor Li’s words, started contemplating, "I didn’t expect that in just a few days, the Demon Sect could rally so many people to pursue me in such haste. Do they really value me that much?"

"An Jing, can’t you understand?"

Seeing An Jing’s fearless demeanor, Instructor Li, who was running out of breath, could not help raising his voice, "The Divine Sect needs you alive. If you die, or get turned by the Heavenly Demon, the deaths of those kids at Hanging Fate Manor, along with everyone else’s, would have been meaningless!"

"Weren’t you planning to run away before? Now is the best chance, so why aren’t you planning to leave now?"

At this moment, even Instructor Li let out an ironic laugh, gasping for air as he mocked, "Could it be that you have some karma entangled with the Heavenly Demon, and you are destined to battle it?"

And An Jing looked down, making eye contact with him.

"There is no destiny."

He said, "I ran before because I wanted to run, now I fight because I want to fight."

"Whether to flee or to fight, it’s all in my nature."

"I can escape a tribulation, and I want to fight this battle, both choices are results of my nature."

"And whether I live or die, it doesn’t mean that the lives and deaths of others in Hanging Fate Manor are meaningless. They are all independent people, not my vassals... You always regard people as incidental to their Fate Pattern, but you never want to acknowledge that Fate Patterns depend on the person for their existence, the person is what’s most important."

"Hey." Instructor Li let out a light chuckle, but An Jing was unfazed, "If you truly do not wish for me to die, then tell me the truth. If I truly cannot win, I will leave."

"Moreover." As he spoke, An Jing bent down to check Instructor Li’s pulse, "Protecting the people is Da Chen’s heavenly mandate."

"Yet even you would fight to the death against the Heavenly Demon, for your own ’followers’ and ’territory’."

"I am not like you; I am a person. Killing you is one thing, slaughtering the Heavenly Demon is another."

"I just want to know, Instructor Li, since you are obviously an undercover agent for Da Chen, why do you seem so loyal to the Demon Sect in this matter?"

"Undercover? So you misunderstood that..." Hearing this, Instructor Li paused, then he laughed, and even began to laugh loudly, coughing up blood as he did, "Yes, I indeed provided some information to Da Chen’s side to make them come as quickly as possible."

"But that has nothing to do with being an undercover agent."

"You surely don’t think that Da Chen and the Divine Sect are bitter enemies, irreconcilable?"

"You surely don’t think that there’s no one from our side within the court?"

"Among this batch of Red Armored Guards, there are also our people, that’s why we could cooperate so smoothly."

"It’s just a pity that there are also people from Da Chen within the Divine Sect, so we ended up having our fruits plucked... but that doesn’t matter, Bai Qinghan has returned to his home mountain and you have been wandering in the Wilderness, Da Chen didn’t get either of you, so this peach-plucking plan was a failure."

Blood oozing from the corner of his mouth, Instructor Li looked at An Jing with a mocking gaze, "An Jing, don’t think you can escape the karma of the Divine Sect!"

"On this journey, I’ve long since sent all your information to the infiltrators on Da Chen’s side... What does it matter if you detest the Divine Sect?"

"Even if you leave the Divine Sect and join Da Chen, perhaps you will still be serving the Divine Sect! But then... cough cough, haha, your title will change from Divine General to Heaven’s Chosen, but nothing else will change!"

"Who said I was going to join Da Chen?"

Compared to the agitated Instructor Li, An Jing was utterly calm, "I’ve known all along that Da Chen must have your people inside, I just didn’t expect the undercover agent to be someone else."

"Indeed, this dynasty has completely rotted away. No matter how glorious and strong it was in the past, it has now become corrupt flesh that poisons the people. I must put an end to this deeply rooted and complicated system."

"Whether it’s you, Da Chen, and all those who collude with evil, all those who kill indiscriminately and don’t treat people as humans."

Saying so, behind An Jing, a river of crimson blood flames surged ferociously, forming a Blood Fiend great star: "Instructor Li, you must understand that only by completely destroying all this..."

"Can the world be reborn."

"I believe that this is the true ’Heaven’s Will’!"

Seeing An Jing’s unwavering determination, the originally agitated Instructor Li was taken aback.

"Is this your purpose? The ’Heaven’s Will’ that you’ve determined?"

The dying man, upon seeing the ever-expanding blood flame totem and the spreading aura of sharp weapons behind An Jing, finally came to a realization, "You really are born of the Divine Sect, but... do you truly believe in your success that much?"

"Success does not have to come in my lifetime, but I will definitely do it, be the first ’Pioneer’."

Hearing An Jing’s answer, Instructor Li gradually calmed down, "Are you really not afraid of dying?"

"An Jing... you’re not... are you saying you didn’t run away because you were afraid of dying?"

An Jing did not answer this question.

Finally understanding a bit of An Jing’s thinking, although completely unable to comprehend it, Instructor Li finally had an epiphany.

His voice grew softer and, with his head bowed, he murmured, "So, this is the true ’Heaven’s Will Child’ that the Divine Sect wanted to select..."

"So that’s how it is, I’ve always misunderstood..."

His mind somewhat blurry, Instructor Li began to recite the chanting of Heaven’s Will Cult softly, "Great is Imperial Heaven for creating this body, foolish are the people who do not recognize the grace."

"Where does life’s tribulation lead to after death? Only my path is the beacon light."

"My guide is the divine. One who walks the divine path is of heaven. One who comprehends Heaven’s Will is a saint."

"So, ’divine’ has this meaning..."
