Against the Gods

In the empty hall, Yun Che and the ninth acquaintance of the palace sat opposite each other.

The appearance of the Jiu Zhi of Senluo Divine Son Palace is as gentle and handsome as the rumors say. He does not feel oppressed by being the first divine son, nor does he have the fierce and fiery aura of dominance like his father.

But looking closely at his eyes, Yun Che could still catch the hidden edge in them.

Yun Che would never believe that the first divine son who had grown up from being trampled on would be as humble as he appeared on the outside, a humble gentleman who did not care about past grudges and was tolerant of the world.

"Brother Jian Yuan, this visit is very presumptuous. I hope you won't be offended."

Dian Jiuzhi is the first son of God, but his attitude is so humble and polite. If it were any of the Dream Weaver Emperors at this moment, they would probably be surprised and frightened.

Yun Che said with a smile: "What are you talking about, God Son Jiuzhi? I have been aware of the reputation of God Son Jiuzhi since I was young, but I never dared to think of making friends with him. Now that Son of God Jiuzhi has stooped to visit me, I am extremely honored. Why? Come to blame. In addition, I have not yet attached myself to the identity of Meng Jianyuan. Just call me Yun Che."

The ninth acquaintance of the Palace nodded directly: "Okay, Brother Yun. The so-called 'Son of God' is just a false name given to the world. I have made you fifty years longer. If Brother Yun doesn't mind, just call me Palace Brother in private."

Yun Che also smiled and nodded: "Then I don't know what my brother has to teach you when he comes here."

Dian Jiu Zhi was startled for a moment, then laughed loudly: "Hahahaha! In the past, when I said this, the other person would either take it as a courtesy, or be more frightened, and then they would still call him the Son of God. Brother Yun is really a wonderful man, look. It was the right choice to come here to make friends.”

Yun Che's expression remained unchanged, and he smiled as before: "Three points are friendship, and seven points are testing. It's really hard to let go of the fact that my brother is willing to be my aunt to Senior Sword Immortal."

Dian Jiuzhi's smile suddenly faltered. He looked directly into Yun Che's calm and sincere eyes, laughed again, and sighed softly: "You and I are obviously just meeting for the first time today, but you can turn me into someone else." He peered into his thoughts so thoroughly and spoke so directly... It was only now that I realized that there was such a wonderful person like you in this world. "

"Brother, you are so complimentary." Yun Che narrowed his eyes slightly and looked at the tea cup in his hand. He was completely unmoved by Dian Jiuzhi's words that sounded like surprise and praise: "Brother, your name is known throughout the world. But compared to this The one who is more famous as the first son of God is you, the Goddess of Fuzhetian. The infatuation for painting colored glass has not changed for thousands of years. Senior Sword Immortal is the aunt of the Goddess Zhetian, and is also her master and guardian of swordsmanship. In addition, she never speaks falsely to anyone, but allows me to shout. Her aunt, and declared her protection to me in public.”

He raised his eyes again and looked at Dian Jiuzhi: "So, it's not because of my sharp mind, but because it involves the person that I love, so I must have this reaction."

Dian Jiuzhi shook his head, but he was not denying Yun Che's words, but seemed to be mocking himself: "Brother Yun is so frank and honest, but I, a man of fifty years, am quite ashamed. Okay, then I will say it frankly, I I really feel sorry for the special care you gave me, Senior Sword Immortal, and I hope Brother Yun can clear up my doubts.”

He always knew that Hua Caili must be protected by Hua Qingying, either brightly or covertly. Every time Hua Caili left the Pure Land, he would leave everything behind to visit, and naturally had more contact with Hua Qingying.

However, even though he was Hua Caili's betrothed, Hua Qingying would never look at him twice. The only communication he had was basically him performing the courtesy of a junior, Hua Qingying giving a faint response... and nothing else.

He has long been accustomed to this. After all, even his father god... the most powerful god in the Six God Kingdom, Luohu, Hua Qingying, would never look at him.

But today, he was so special to Yun Che... so special that he couldn't believe it for a long time.

And Hua Qingying, whose temperament can be so indifferent to the point of being almost desireless... the only reason he can think of is to paint colored glass.

"Brother, have you ever heard of the 'Fog Emperor'?" Yun Che said suddenly.

"I heard something." Dian Jiuzhi's brows moved slightly: "The Pure Land is above, but this person dares to take the name of 'Emperor'. No matter who is hiding the secret, once exposed, there is only death."

Yun Che held the tea cup in his hand and smiled but said nothing.

"Brother Yun mentioned this person, could it be..."

He was not disappointed. Yun Che took a sip of tea, and then said calmly: "Since my brother knows about the Mist Emperor, he should also know about the ancestor Lin Shen who appeared with the Mist Emperor, and... appeared above the fog sea. purple sword mark."

The ninth magistrate of the palace thought for a moment and suddenly realized something: "That purple mark was really left by the senior Sword Immortal?"

"That's right." Yun Che nodded slightly: "Brother, I think I just heard some rumors about what happened that day, and there will be many mistakes and biases. But I happened to be in a similar place."

He narrated eloquently: "At that time, the place where the Mist Emperor and the ancestor Linshen appeared was just close to the place where the goddess Zhetian was training. The sudden appearance of the ancestor Linshen caused the goddess Zhetian to be seriously injured and almost died."

"What!!"

Dian Jiuzhi suddenly stood up, his expression changed dramatically, and the sudden and chaotic air wave destroyed all the tea cups of the two people.

Yun Che raised his fingers, and the dust and water marks immediately passed over his fingers without touching his body.

He continued to say lightly: "Auntie... Oh, Senior Sword Immortal must pull the ancestor Linshen away as soon as possible, it is difficult to care about the head and tail. I felt compassion at that time, gritted my teeth and rushed into the dangerous situation where my aunt and the ancestors Linshen were fighting, and I was about to break. The Goddess rescued him and he was lucky enough to escape.”

Yun Che raised his gaze slightly and looked at the frightened Son of Senluo on his face: "That's why Senior Sword Immortal allowed me to call her aunt and promised me to protect her."

When he suddenly heard that Hua Caili was seriously injured and on the verge of death, his reaction was really shocking.

After a long while, Dian Jiuzhi murmured: "It's actually... so..."

"That's right." Yun Che said.

Dian Jiuzhi let out a long breath. Although it was already in the past, he still seemed to be greatly frightened.

His breath gradually returned to calmness, and when he looked at Yun Che again, he was faced with a pair of eyes that were extremely frank and frank. It seemed that all hypocrisy, cunning, filthiness, and slander... were in front of these too clear eyes. No place to hide.

His eyes changed, there was less exploration and scrutiny, but there was much more gratitude.

He suddenly took a step back, and then gave an extremely solemn salute to Yun Che.

Yun Che seemed to be stunned. It was not until he finished the bow that he stood up in confusion and said: "Brother, you are... you are really too much to offend me."

Dian Jiuzhi said sincerely: "Caili has been secretly accompanied by Senior Sword Immortal during this training, so I thought I would be safe. Unexpectedly, Caili encountered such a fatal disaster."

"The boundary of the power of Senior Sword Immortal and the ancestor Lin Shen is unimaginable, and every step leads to death. If Brother Yun hadn't risked his life to save me, I... would be unimaginable..." After speaking, his voice , obviously trembling with fear.

At this moment, he completely understood why Hua Qingying was so special to Yun Che.

For Hua Qingying, painting colored glass is more important than her life. He saved Hua Caili's life, and no matter how he repays Hua Qingying, it would be no exaggeration.

"Brother Yun saved Caili's life, which is equivalent to saving the lives of the nine magistrates of our palace." He took a step forward, stretched out his hand and patted Yun Che heavily on the shoulder: "Brother Yun, you will never forget your life-saving grace, come here I will definitely repay you a hundredfold!”

Yun Che said quickly: "Brother, there is no need to do this. I also ran away that day, so it was convenient to rescue the Goddess Zhetian. Moreover, I got the protection of my aunt, and I returned to dream weaving because of the recommendation of Zhetian Divine Kingdom. I have already obtained It’s a huge reward.”

Dian Jiuzhi shook his head and said with great sincerity: "Brother Yun, you must not understand how important Caili is to me. You saved not only Caili's life... but also my life."

Yun Che: "emmm..."

"I don't know how to repay such a great favor." He thought for a while and said solemnly: "In the future, if you can be of use to my nine magistrates, Brother Yun, please feel free to ask."

Yun Che seemed to hesitate for a while, and then he smiled casually: "Brother is indeed a very affectionate person. Well, brother is so kind, so I would be disrespectful. If there are any difficult things to solve in the future, it is indispensable. "Excuse me, brother."

"Hahahaha!" Dian Jiu Zhi laughed heartily: "Refreshing! My name is Jiu Zhi, and one of them is 'Zhien'. If I can't repay such a great kindness, I'm afraid I will have trouble sleeping and eating."

The two sat down again, and there was no longer any alienation in the atmosphere.

"May I ask my brother, what is the Nine Knowledges?" Yun Che asked casually.

Dian Jiuzhi said with a smile: "This is the name given to me by Father God when I was made the Son of Senluo God. The name 'Jiuzhi' means 'Know yourself, know others, know all life, know kindness, know shame, know Know what is good and what is evil, know how to advance, know how to retreat, and know destiny."

Yun Che smiled, but did not comment. He just said: "I see."

The Jiu Zhi of the palace looked curious: "'Nine Zhi' means, in the past, the other party always praised the name given by Father God for its profound meaning, and should uphold it for the rest of his life. Brother Ru Yun is the first to react like this. indivual."

Yun Che thought for a while and said: "Brother is a gentle and straightforward person, so I will speak frankly about what I feel in my heart."

Dian Jiuzhi smiled: "I am all ears."

Yun Che tapped his fingers lightly on the tea table, but asked instead: "Brother, do you think you truly understand yourself?"

Dian Jiuzhi thought for a moment, but did not answer immediately.

Yun Che looked ahead and spoke directly in the calmest tone: "How many people have spent their whole lives and devoted everything to finally get what they expected, but instead of feeling happy and satisfied, they feel like they have lost it. Suddenly looking back, I see the path of my life. There are scars everywhere, but there is no one who has walked through the scars together... I got what I thought I wanted, but what I lost and missed became an eternal soul hole."

"So, does he really know what a person really wants?" Yun Che glanced slightly sideways: "Brother, are you sure you understand what you really want in this life? Are you sure you have done what you have to do for it? Are your efforts correct and without regrets?”

Without waiting for his answer, Yun Che continued to talk to himself: "It's even more difficult to know someone who is a close friend... It can even be said that in this world, perhaps no one has ever truly understood another person completely."

"Similar question...Brother, are you sure that what you give a person with all your heart and soul is what she really wants? Are you sure that her thoughts are what you think she is?"

"..." Dian Jiuzhi seemed slightly moved.

Without looking at Dian Jiuzhi's reaction, Yun Che directly summed it up: "Know yourself and know others, know your kindness and shame, know your progress and know your retreat... Knowing oneself is nothing but self-deception, knowing others is nothing but self-righteousness, knowing kindness is easy to be hijacked, and knowing shame is easy Trapped by shame, it is easy to regret not retreating when you know how to advance, and it is easy to regret not working hard when you know how to retreat.”

"As for knowing all life, knowing good and evil, knowing destiny..."

"It is difficult to know oneself, how can one say that one knows one's whole life?"

"What is good? What is evil? When a mysterious person enters the sea of ​​fog, to him, the abyssal beast is an evil that threatens his life and must be killed. But to the abyssal beast, the mysterious person is the evil one who invades their territory. . How can we know good and evil?”

"Know the destiny?" Yun Che shook his head and smiled: "What is the destiny? Should a man know that 'the destiny cannot be violated', or should he say, 'My destiny is up to me and not from God'? If the destiny can be known, why are you fighting for this life? If the destiny cannot be known, Then wouldn’t it be true that destiny is just a fallacy?”

In just a few words, this name given by the Lord Jueluo was worthless in Yun Che's mouth: "Therefore, the name of my brother sounds like it has a broad meaning, but in my opinion... it is only empty."

After finishing the evaluation, he did not forget to say humbly: "These are just my personal feelings after hearing it at first. I guess my experience is shallow and I am unable to understand the profound meaning of Lord Jueluo. My brother is just talking nonsense."

Dian Jiuzhi's eyes were fixed, as if he was thinking. When he came back to his senses, he suddenly asked: "Brother Yun has always insisted on using the name 'Yun Che'. I don't know this name. Do you have any hopes for it?"

Yun Che said: "Yes, and no."

Dian Jiuzhi: "?"

Yun Che's face showed nostalgia: "My name was given by Master. The word 'Yun Che' means that he hoped that my body would be as smooth as clouds and my heart would be as clear as water. I don't expect how far into the world I will go and how high I will gain." What kind of fame and achievements will I leave behind? My only hope is that I will live a peaceful and joyful life without any disasters."

It is undoubtedly in sharp contrast to the "Nine Knowledges" of Dian Jiuzhi, who are full of expectations, warnings, and vigilance.

Yun Che continued: "So, as far as I am concerned, whether it is good to others, whether it is good to myself, whether it is kindness, whether it is shameful... it all depends on your heart. If you attach too much importance and persistence, it will bind your heart and soul."

Li Suo's voice suddenly sounded in Yun Che's soul sea: "Your insights are rare and touching. Is this what you have realized in your lifetime?"

Yun Che secretly twitched the corners of his lips and said: "It's just a bunch of nonsense meant to disturb his heart and soul, but you actually got it into his heart? Forget it immediately."

Li Suo: "..."

Dian Jiu Zhi was silent for a while, and suddenly sighed softly: "Since I became the Son of God, no matter what happens, I will remember to abide by the commandments of the 'Jiu Zhi' and never overstep it. Today I suddenly heard Brother Yun's words... …I feel a little confused.”

"Hahahaha!" Yun Che suddenly laughed: "I told you that it was just nonsense. It should only make my brother laugh. How can I make my brother upset by it?"

Dian Jiuzhi did not obey his words, but said seriously: "It is a great blessing to be able to make friends with people like Brother Yun in this life. It is a great regret not to have made friends earlier."

He stood up and said, "Brother Yun, I still have some important things to attend to, so I will stay here soon. Although it was just a short chat today, it was a long time to see each other, with a lot of feelings, and it was extremely enjoyable."

Yun Che said: "Me too."

Dian Jiuzhi sincerely invited: "After today, Brother Yun's name will definitely resound throughout the abyss. If you have time, you must come to our Senluo Divine Kingdom as a guest, and I will accompany you throughout the entire journey."

"Haha, definitely."

"So, farewell!"

Dian Jiuzhi nodded heavily to Yun Che, and just as he was about to turn around, he suddenly asked: "Brother Yun, I have something, and I suddenly want to hear your opinion."

"Brother, please speak."

"Brother Yun, do you have someone you like...?"

Yun Che answered without hesitation: "Of course."

"Then," Dian Jiuzhi looked sideways: "If it were Brother Yun, how would he win more affection and favor from the other party?"

Yun Che smiled and replied: "The phoenix will come, and the fragrant flowers and butterflies will come. True love is not sought, but attracted. What can be truly begged is never true love, but compromise and compassion."

Dian Jiuzhi's body swayed slightly.

He smiled and said, "Thank you, Brother Yun, for teaching me. I'll say goodbye."

"Zhanyi, send the Son of God away from the temple."

Yun Che watched Dian Jiuzhi walk out of the Divine Son's Palace with a rather subtle expression.

He whispered: "I think back then, when I first arrived in the Eastern God Territory, Qianying was the number one goddess at that time. Her mind was full of conspiracies and calculations, and her methods were endless. They were all sinister and more sinister than any devil I knew at that time. It’s so scary, especially the Brahma Soul Death Seal. Every time I think about it, I want to be cruel to her ten or eight times!”

"And the number one divine son of the Six Divine Kingdoms is actually filled with these things."

Li Suo: "Isn't this just what you want?"

Yun Che put his chin in his hand, thought for a long time, and said to himself: "The oppressive feeling brought to me by his profound energy aura is extremely strong... The First Son of God, in this respect is indeed not an empty name."

"With such cultivation, such status, and the fact that his mind is full of colored glass... if used properly, it will be an extremely useful tool."

Li Suo: "..."
