Chapter 737 - 737 Ji Lutian's Origin, Dealing with the Great Change (2)
737 Ji Lutians Origin, Dealing with the Great Change (2)
Zhou Shu nodded. He had come to find the Qin emperor only to try his luck. After all, Ji Lutian was missing. Even if he could find him, Ji Lutian might not tell him anything.
Now, Zhou Shu realized that almost everything was related to Ji Lutian.
The Divine Stone had attracted the covetous eyes of the Xu Ling Grotto-Heaven. Zhou Shu didnt believe that Ji Lutian had been forced to hand over the information about the Divine Stone to them.
Ji Lutian was not an ordinary person. How could he not know the value of the Divine Stone?
In addition, Ji Lutian had asked Yao Yi to give him the forging legacy of the Red Water Heaven of Dan Mountain. Not long ago, Tang Qianluo had said that he was chosen by Ji Lutian. These things made Zhou Shu extremely puzzled.
It was precisely because of this that he was in a hurry to leave the front line and come to Great Qins capital to find the Qin emperor.
Since he couldnt find Ji Lutian now, he would investigate his background first!
Zhou Shu didnt mind the Qin emperors presence. He sat on a chair and began to flip through the thick stack of information on the table.
Great Qins intelligence bureau was very powerful. They had investigated Ji Lutians eighteen generations of ancestors clearly.
From his birth to where he learned his forging techniques, when he became a forger, and when he revealed his talents in the Great Qin Imperial Court, almost everything was recorded in detail.
But the more Zhou Shu looked, the more he frowned.
He looked up at the Qin emperor.
The Qin emperors expression was very calm as he said, This is the result of two generations of Great Qins investigation. I can guarantee that theres definitely nothing wrong with this investigation.
On the surface, Ji Lutians background is clean, and we are able to trace his every step.
Then, why are you suspicious of him? Zhou Shu frowned.
It cant be considered suspicious, the Qin emperor said. Ji Lutian didnt hide his extraordinariness from my father from the beginning. Otherwise, my father wouldnt have cooperated with his plan.
He revealed his cultivation that surpa.s.sed the first rank of the Martial Dao in front of my father. At the time, he directly said that he didnt do this to help Great Qin but for another purpose.
Its just that he didnt say what his motive was.
So, youve investigated for so many years and found nothing? Zhou Shu frowned. What was the point of hiding a pile of useless information in a secret chamber?
Why dont you read these first? The Qin emperor pointed at the remaining books that Zhou Shu had yet to read.
Zhou Shu was puzzled, but he still took the books and flipped through them.
Zhou Shus expression changed slightly.
The next moment, he quickly flipped through the pages.
After more than two hours, Zhou Shu finally finished flipping through the last book. Then he raised his head and looked at the Qin emperor.
The Qin emperors expression was solemn as he slowly said, Great Qin has investigated for a hundred years, and we have finally found something.
This isnt the first time Ji Lutian has appeared in the thousand years of Great Qins history.
Even the establishment of Great Qin is related to Ji Lutian, Zhou Shu said in a low voice. This can only mean that Ji Lutian has lived long enough
Of course he has lived long enough, the Qin emperor said with a serious expression. Thats not the most important problem. You should be able to tell that Ji Lutian is from the Heavenly Mountain Villa!
Or rather, hes the master of the Heavenly Mountain Villa and the person in charge of the ranking of the Armament Manual.
The information that Great Qin had spent a hundred years collecting was extremely detailed after being screened and cla.s.sified by professional intelligence personnel.
Zhou Shu didnt doubt the authenticity of this information, nor did he doubt the level of Great Qins intelligence personnel.
But even if Ji Lutian was really the master of the Heavenly Mountain Villa, there was nothing strange about it. It still couldnt resolve the doubts in his heart.
Ji Lutians background was definitely not ordinary. There was no doubt about it. Moreover, from the previous situation, Zheng Sanguang of the Sima Grotto-Heaven should know him.
Otherwise, even though Ji Lutian was seriously injured at the time, it would be impossible for Zheng Sanguang to bring him away.
Now that they knew that Ji Lutian was the master of the Heavenly Mountain Villa, it was just another ident.i.ty. They still knew nothing about the origin of the Heavenly Mountain Villa.
Hes already mysterious enough. Even adding the ident.i.ty of the master of the Heavenly Mountain Villa wont change anything, Zhou Shu said solemnly. What I want to know is his true origin and his true goal.
Im afraid only he knows. The Qin emperor shook his head. I even suspect that he deliberately let us find out about him.
Otherwise, with how meticulous he is, its impossible for him to leave any clues.
Zhou Shu nodded. He had personally experienced Ji Lutians schemes.
He sighed. With Ji Lutians style, it was unlikely that he would leave any flaws. He had thought too well. It seemed that it was impossible to obtain any useful information in Great Qin.
If he wanted to know the truth, he could only wait until he met Ji Lutian in the future or think of a way
Zhou Shu suddenly thought of something. Qin emperor, before Ji Lutian went to the Demon Realm, he was an official in Great Qin for many years. Didnt he have any wives, concubines, or children?
The Qin emperor shook his head. Back then, he was obsessed with forging and didnt get close to women. Everyone in Great Qin knows this.
Did he leave anything behind? Blood or hair or something? Zhou Shu continued asking.
The Qin emperor didnt say anything. He looked at Zhou Shu with a strange expression.
Zhou Shu was also a little embarra.s.sed. It sounded a little strange to ask for a mans blood and hair. It sounded like a pervert.
But if he wanted to use the Zhuang Zhou b.u.t.terfly Dream Technique, he could only use these mediums.
Other than the Zhuang Zhou b.u.t.terfly Dream Technique, Zhou Shu couldnt think of a better way to understand Ji Lutians secrets.
How do you know that Great Qin kept these things? Could it be that you also know witchcraft? the Qin emperor asked.
Zhou Shu was stunned. Theres witchcraft in this world?
But after hearing the Qin emperors explanation, Zhou Shu suddenly understood. The witchcraft he mentioned was different from the witchcraft on Earth in his previous life.
What the Qin emperor was talking about should be curse techniques that could curse others through a medium.
It seemed that Great Qin didnt trust Ji Lutian completely back then.
A smile appeared on Zhou Shus face. Qin emperor, if youve really preserved Ji Lutians hair or blood essence back then, perhaps we will know Ji Lutians true goal.
What Tang Qianluo had said about Zhou Shu being chosen by Ji Lutian made Zhou Shu feel uneasy. He didnt know what this so-called chosen meant. In order to figure this out, he would rather endure the pain of using the Zhuang Zhou b.u.t.terfly Dream Technique.
As for being chosen by Ji Lutian, Zhou Shu even thought of the Legendary Armament Canon!
Ji Lutians background was mysterious, and Zhou Shus was not much different.
He came from another world, which was the deepest secret in his heart. He had never told anyone about it. The Legendary Armament Canon was also his biggest secret.
At the thought that this might be related to Ji Lutian, Zhou Shu felt his hair stand on end.
Therefore, no matter the price, he had to figure this out!
Back then, just in case, my father thought of a way to obtain a drop of Ji Lutians blood essence and saved it with a secret technique, the Qin emperor said solemnly.
The Qin emperor hesitated. But Ji Lutian is mysterious and unpredictable, and his cultivation is extremely high. Moreover, he hasnt shown any obvious hostility to us now, so theres no need for us to do anything to him.
Youve misunderstood. Zhou Shu shook his head. I dont want to deal with Ji Lutian. I just want to figure out his goal. Qin Emperor, the world is probably going to change drastically. Our Ten Nations should be prepared in advance.
Even if theyre not our enemies, knowing ourselves and the other side will at least put us in an invincible position. Dont you think so?
