Chapter 852 This Is My Era (1)
"You can say it's related, but it's not related at the same time," Ji Lutian said.
Zhou Shu frowned. "Can you not beat around the bush?"
"Let's put it this way. Wang Xuanyi and the others, as you've said, want to poke a hole in Heaven."
"Are they fighting against Heaven?" Zhou Shu's eyes lit up. This is a good idea! Won't it be over if they directly kill Heaven?
"I don't know the details." Ji Lutian pointed at his head. "They're probably facing Heaven."
Zhou Shu realized that Ji Lutian was really a shameless person. If he had really lost some of his memories, who knew what he remembered and what he didn't?
If he didn't want to talk about something, he could just say he didn't remember it.
This was simply being shameless!
But he really couldn't do anything to Ji Lutian. He couldn't beat him up over such a minor matter.
If he didn't want to talk about it, even if he beat him up, he still wouldn't talk about it.
"Alright, let's not talk about them for the time being. Mr. Ji, you've been around the world for so many years, so you should know about Tianji of the Red Water Heaven of Dan Mountain, right? Who used Tianji to publish the Armament Manual and cause chaos in the world?" Zhou Shu stared at Ji Lutian without blinking.
Once upon a time, Zhou Shu had suspected that the person behind the Heavenly Mountain Villa was Ji Lutian.
But from all the signs, Ji Lutian didn't seem like the person who released the Armament Manual.
"I don't think it causes chaos in the world." Ji Lutian shook his head. "I do know about the Heavenly Mountain Villa. You also know the person behind it."
"I do?" Zhou Shu asked curiously.
Many figures flashed through his mind in an instant, but he eliminated them one by one.
He knew many people, but the only person he suspected to be the mastermind of the Heavenly Mountain Villa was Ji Lutian.
"Who is it?"
Since Ji Lutian said so, it definitely wasn't him. Zhou Shu really couldn't think of who it could be.
"Shi Changsheng," Ji Lutian said.
"Shi Changsheng?" Zhou Shu was a little stunned. He really hadn't thought of him!
It was mainly because Zhou Shu had never treated Shi Changsheng as a human!
After all, when Zhou Shu met Shi Changsheng, he was a sword.
"Shi Changsheng is the master of the legendary Heavenly Mountain Villa?" Zhou Shu said in disbelief.
"The so-called Heavenly Mountain Villa is just a rumor based on Tianji," Ji Lutian said. "But Shi Changsheng was indeed the one who came up with the Armament Manual.
"This can't be considered causing chaos in the world. He only created the Armament Manual to promote the development of forging techniques."
Zhou Shu frowned slightly. "That's it?"
"That's right," Ji Lutian said. "What else could it be? After so many years, has the Armament Manual really caused any harm? On the contrary, its existence has promoted the competitiveness of the forgers of the Ten Nations."
"So what? Before me, the forging techniques of the Ten Nations were far inferior to those of the grotto-heavens. Since Shi Changsheng wanted to promote the development of forging techniques, why didn't he teach them to the forgers of the Ten Nations? What's the use of just an armament manual?"
"Didn't you show up?" Ji Lutian asked.
"I'm different!" Zhou Shu said.
"How are you different?" Ji Lutian said. "It's not that Shi Changsheng doesn't want to impart his knowledge, but there are actually problems with the forging techniques back then. He did it so that he wouldn't implicate the forgers of the Ten Nations.
"Otherwise, I wouldn't have held the legacy of the Red Water Heaven of Dan Mountain for so many years without looking for a successor in the Ten Nations.
"This is also the reason why I handed over the library of the Red Water Heaven of Dan Mountain to you after you comprehended the forging technique of connate divine weapons."
Zhou Shu frowned. Ji Lutian's words answered many of his doubts, but the answers didn't satisfy him.
He had a feeling that Ji Lutian wasn't telling the truth. Perhaps Ji Lutian's old illness was acting up again, and he lost some of his memories.
Zhou Shu felt that his words about the Armament Manual didn't make sense.
But he didn't know where Shi Changsheng had gone. Even if he could find Shi Changsheng, Shi Changsheng was even more difficult to deal with than Ji Lutian. Nine out of ten sentences that this old man said were false.
"Although I still don't understand what you're doing, it doesn't matter." Zhou Shu looked at Ji Lutian. "Now is my era. I have the final say in what I do.
"Mr. Ji, why don't you tell me how you intend to get rid of all the Grotto-Heaven realm experts in the world?"
Zhou Shu's eyes were as calm as water, but his body emitted a special aura that gave Ji Lutian a slight illusion. He felt as though he was young again and facing a dignified master.
"It's enough to get all the Grotto-Heaven realm experts to cut down their cultivation," Ji Lutian said.
Zhou Shu's face darkened. Aren't you talking nonsense?
How can you make them cut down their cultivation? Will Grotto-Heaven realm experts obediently let you cut down their cultivation?
If they don't cooperate, can you defeat so many Grotto-Heaven realm experts?
Even if you can fight them, won't you die of exhaustion if you fight them one by one?
"I'm confident in persuading them to cut down their cultivation, but I need your help to do it," Ji Lutian said seriously.
Zhou Shu said, "I don't think I can help you. I can't even appear in front of those Grotto-Heaven realm experts."
