As long as there are enough vests, the plot can't kill me
Chapter 178 Performance of Contract
[King, do we really want to gamble? ]
Upon learning of the king's thoughts, the older Bai Yu became even more uneasy.
Because no matter how you look at it, Lin Xiao has nothing to do with the legendary immortals, and there is not a trace of immortal air on him.
Not only is he not a god, he looks more like a complete 'liar' and businessman.
Immortality has always been an illusory concept.
In the eyes of many mortals, a cultivator with extraordinary means is an immortal.
But in the universe, cultivators are not mysterious, so they don’t have the halo of immortals.
But for those who can vaguely perceive the powerful beings in another world, such as Lao Su, the supreme existence in the real world may be the true immortal.
When their sight came to the real world, the indigenous Baiyu clan knew very well that there were no immortals in this world.
At least, not yet.
Even if a master has great cultivation and is the emperor of the human race or a master of other races, he is not an immortal.
It is no secret in the real world that immortals are elusive and almost extinct.
Therefore, when the King of White Jade connected the scene before him with the legendary immortal's guidance, the older White Jade could not accept it.
[Uncle San, let’s not talk about whether this is a good fate or not. Even if it is wrong, what impact will it have? ]
The real name is indeed important, and it affects whether the child can achieve enlightenment in the future.
But looking back at the billions of years of the real world, is there any enlightened person who came from outside of human beings?
No, none at all.
[Guaiguai's blood concentration is indeed far higher than mine, but think about it carefully, even if she grows up to be able to match the First Ancestor in the future, can she take on the finger of the adults? ]
Gudong!
When the master's name came out, the older Bai Yu couldn't help but swallow hard.
Yes, no matter how high the little princess's blood concentration is, if she doesn't have a heaven-defying opportunity, she can at most become an existence like the First Ancestor.
But becoming the first ancestor is extremely difficult. In today's environment, it is almost impossible.
What's even more cruel is that living in this world that loves humans, even someone as strong as the First Ancestor could only barely maintain the continuation of his clan.
A human emperor can suppress all other races so much that they cannot raise their heads.
The most terrifying thing is that there are several similar beings in the human race.
[King, do you think that in today's world, the little princess cannot reach the level of the First Ancestor? ]
[This is inevitable, and not only will we be affected, but the human race will be affected as well. Otherwise, the major forces of the human race would not be so anxious to act and frequently focus on the boundary sea and the virtual world. ]
Spring River Plumbing Duck Prophet.
The Baiyu clan has lived in Jieguan for generations, and any changes in the outside world cannot escape their eyes.
The King of White Jade expressed his thoughts vaguely, but in fact he had a guess in his heart that he dared not say out loud.
After you, sir, there will be no more emperor!
She had a hunch that His Excellency might be the last emperor of the human race.
Even those emperors who are already supreme beings, beyond life and death, will probably be affected by the changes in heaven and earth.
The most direct evidence is that there has been no news from them for a long, long time.
Apart from you, the only news about the previous emperor was when a certain madman was still alive.
[Uncle San, do you really think that I made a mistake by choosing to take this gamble? ]
Emotionally, the older Baiyu thought Wang was wrong.
The immortal's guidance is too mysterious. Once the little princess's name is given by a human, she will be inseparable from that human girl.
But if we put aside our emotions and start from a practical point of view, Wang's decision is undoubtedly correct.
No matter how small the hope is, it means there is still hope.
Using a real name that was destined to not play a decisive role, in exchange for a hope that was even smaller than the little princess becoming the first ancestor, once it became true...
[King, trust your own judgment. I think this Lin Xiao is the Lin Xiao blessed by the adults.]
【Third uncle?】
Although the King of White Jade has supreme authority in the clan, he still feels that the pressure on his shoulders is much less when he has the support of his elders.
At least she didn't act on her own and lead the tribe down the wrong path.
[King, fate is very mysterious. Everyone living in the boundary is looking for their own fate. Who can guarantee that the appearance of this girl is not an opportunity for the little princess? ]
The situation is irreversible, so the elder is very open-minded.
Now that you have decided to gamble, try to think positively.
Perhaps this girl really has the potential to become an immortal. When the time comes, the little princess will embark on the path pointed out by the immortal and become the first supreme being outside the human race.
It’s no wonder that when the older Bai Yu had the dream, he felt that the dark bottom of the water seemed to be brighter, and he inexplicably liked Lin Xiao a little more.
【I hope so.】
The King of White Jade was not as optimistic as his elders and did not dare to really link Lin Xiao with the immortal.
The higher your cultivation level, the more you will realize how powerless your bloodline is in the face of a solid barrier.
There is no hope of becoming supreme, let alone becoming an immortal above that.
Perhaps it was because they lived too close to humans and were unconsciously influenced by them that the king of the Baiyu clan did not interrupt his child's sudden whim.
What is karma?
……
"Your Highness, this is inappropriate. How can I name you?"
It is the nature of children to act on their own accord. Lin Xiao tried to refuse.
"Why is it inappropriate? You are my only friend. What's wrong with you coming up with a human name for me?"
Dabaiyu was not that stupid. He knew that his name would be given by his mother the moment he came of age. This was the tradition of the Baiyu clan.
Then, she had an idea and immediately thought of the idea of human names.
The little princess of the Baiyu clan has one name within the clan and another name when interacting with her friends. Perfect!
The more the little fellow thought about it, the more excited he became, and it was hard not to feel proud of his own quick wit.
When this logic came out, Lin Xiao didn't think there was anything wrong with it. The older Bai Yu also thought that this method was very good. The little princess who had freed herself from the blood constraints was really smart.
Only the King of White Jade had a smile in his eyes. He stood there without any expression, but looked at his own flesh and blood lovingly.
Silly child, heaven and earth cannot be deceived!
"Your Highness, are you really determined to let me give you a human name?"
Lin Xiao thought about it again and again, but still couldn't find the problem. After all, many stories and legends have recorded similar things.
The Baiyu clan is similar to the demon clan, so it should be okay to give them a human name, right?
With this thought in mind, she confirmed it one last time.
"Yeah, it has to be something nicer, and have a meaning."
The little princess would float to the surface from time to time to look for someone to play with, and subconsciously she had a good understanding of the human race.
Looking at the little guy with an expectant look on his face, Lin Xiao, who was giving someone a name for the first time, gradually became serious.
"Your Highness, do you want to use the surname Bai?"
"Yes, yes, yes, I am from the Baiyu clan, so my last name is Bai."
The cheerful tone passed down the water surface, and the sound waves caused subtle vibrations in the thick river water, which were captured by the King of White Jade.
White?
After learning of his daughter's choice, the last bit of hesitation in the heart of this strongest man of the tribe disappeared.
[You lead your tribe to pledge allegiance to me, and I will help your descendants break free from the shackles...]
It was not until this moment that the King of White Jade could clearly see the face of the person who initiated the transaction. It was a face that was inconspicuous among humans, but had sharp edges and corners.
A madman whose appearance is not outstanding but whose fighting power is comparable to that of the emperor!
Bai Wuhen, Bai Zun...
There is no concept of retainers among species other than humans.
But the vast majority of them follow the rule of strong masters and weak servants.
They know better than humans what loyalty means.
After many twists and turns, the long-awaited promise was finally fulfilled.
It was concluded by two completely new parties in an almost absurd way.
One side is the ignorant and immature sole heir of the tribe.
On the other side, there are young humans who seem to be completely clueless but have somehow made it to this point.
Whether it was fate or destiny, the King of White Jade did not want to delve into it.
Since an extremely powerful being has left a path for the Baiyu clan in advance, they have no choice but to take it in the absence of a better choice.
The bet was won, the sea was wide and the fish leaped free, and from then on, he was freed from the shackles of blood.
I lost the bet, haha...
"Your Highness, how about calling me Bai Xi? Xi means sun, which symbolizes the hope of new life."
Lin Xiao's knowledge is limited, so between the pleasant sound and the meaning, he focused on the meaning.
"Bai Xi? It sounds nice. Hehe, I have a name too. My name is Bai Xi, Bai Xi!"
The little princess seemed very satisfied with the name. She liked it as soon as she heard it and couldn't help but shout it out.
The sound flowed on the water, echoed among the distant peaks, and then drifted towards the border pass with the wind. It was caught by Old Li who was digesting his food, and was heard by the city lord who was standing on the top of the city wall and watching, until it spread to the alley.
Jun Ge suddenly opened his eyes from the chaos, raised his hand and waved it to transform the sound into a visual image.
Looking at the harmonious scene of a man and a fish living together in the water, the corners of her mouth couldn't help but curl up.
"What a clever little fellow..."
The cheerful swimming fish brought a slight freshness to the dull sea of consciousness, and the Emperor pointed at the center of the picture through the water curtain.
【Bai Xi, I will clear your name.】
After doing all this, she closed her eyes again and merged into the dead silent courtyard once again, without a trace of life in her body.
Apart from his senior brother and Sister Hua, Jun Ge would not owe anything to anyone.
After eating a piece of white jade and gaining a bit of the little guy's spirituality, the emperor gave his answer by clearing the name of the little princess.
However, she subconsciously ignored the account between her and Lin Xiao.
Lord Emperor, who has always been slow in dealing with human relationships, has not yet realized the problem and has not realized that his attitude towards Lin Xiao is too natural.
It’s just like treating a former senior brother, I don’t want to make a clear distinction.
Boom!
A huge thunder roared, but Lin Xiao and the little princess were unaware of it.
The two new friends had a great time chatting, one found ease in the other, and the other experienced a feeling he had never experienced before.
On the distant embankment, Old Li, who was still in shock, looked up at the sky from time to time, and then at the two children in the shallows, feeling uncomfortable all over.
The second time, one day later, he actually witnessed the divine thoughts that seemed to belong to the Emperor again.
Just, outrageous!
All this is just too much of a coincidence.
Old Li didn't think about anything else and his eyes were fixed directly on Lin Xiao.
You little liar, you said you don’t know the Baiyu clan, then what are you doing now?
……
PS: Speaking of which, the author has something to say about the 300-word limit, which cannot be accommodated.
Late in the night, I saw an interesting comment. A cutie thought that I shouldn't find too many reasons for Lin Xiao to take action. Just kill him and that's it. From this, it can be concluded that the author himself has a heavy burden and is very concerned about his reputation.
After thinking about it carefully, I don’t know if I am this kind of person, but since I have written it, it can more or less represent what I think.
As for why I wrote it this way, there are probably two reasons. First, I was afraid that if I didn't give a reason, some little cuties wouldn't understand it. They wouldn't know Lin Xiao's principles for killing people, and wouldn't be able to tell why he did it this time, and why he didn't do it next time when the situation was similar.
The second is that as I get older, my state of mind has gradually changed, and I have been infected by all kinds of rules and old-fashioned atmosphere.
Lin Xiao’s strength will make the author in reality look weaker.
As a weak person, it is natural to hope that the strong people in the world are not crazy, the kind of people who are moody and can destroy other people's lives based on their likes.
This is what makes Lin Xiao different from his teacher. Wu Heng can bring about a catastrophic flood for the people he cares about, but Lin Xiao will not do that.
She has been a businessman from the beginning to the end, a businessman with her own unique value system and who adheres to her own set of principles.
It can be understood that anything, including emotions, can be quantified by value under this system.
If I were ten years younger, the protagonist I created might not have so many scruples and would be the type who enjoys taking revenge.
But as we learn more, the pleasure of revenge is replaced by rationality.
Reason and logic tell me that if power is not shackled, it will surely lead to madness.
People’s bottom line is lowered again and again. This time, they wipe out an entire family because of someone else’s offense and insult. What about next time?
In the end, when you get used to killing, will you kill someone just because of an unhappy look?
is it possible?
Of course it's possible.
Because killing can also be addictive.
The desire to kill, the pleasure of destruction...
The best example is that soldiers who are far away from the battlefield will suffer from various sequelae.
I didn’t want to write about a madman, so we got the Lin Xiao you see.
To be more specific, face has value in Lin Xiao's heart, and everything else also has value in her heart.
When the damage to value exceeds her tolerance limit and touches the bottom line of the rules, she will take action.
Simply put, no matter how you curse Lin Xiao, whether it is just insulting him or involving his family, there is a clear damage value.
Before reaching the red line, there is room for turning back, but once it exceeds the red line, even the King of Hell will be of no use.
Killing is easy, but restraining the desire is more difficult.
Of course, this is just my unilateral opinion, and I don’t require everyone to accept and agree with it.
You may have noticed that I wrote this book completely at my own whim, without considering anything related to profit.
Including updates, I only write when I have time, and I will skip them if I don’t.
In this case, as the author of this book, I would like to say sorry to all the book friends who have supported me until now. It is very likely that the final result may not be what you want to see.
Putting aside the profits, I still insist on writing because I want to get emotional value from this book, which is the source of motivation.
It can also be considered a kind of hope for the weak, hoping that the strong who possess absolute power will have the same rationality as Lin Xiao.
Let me be a hypocrite, maybe I am one of them, but I just haven’t realized it.
