Chapter 1314 Farewell
The evening breeze is blowing, and the peach blossoms are falling.
Still under the peach tree, Qin Zun looked up in a daze at the falling peach petals.
Just now he sensed Qin Chengjiao's breath, but unlike the first time when he rushed into the comprehension space, he hesitated.
He also truly lost the courage to face Qin Chengjiao.
Because he knew very well that he was the one who owed half of the debt in that bloody night. In fact, if it weren't for his half, Qin Chengjiao would not have fallen into death with his strength.
So after a serious self-examination, he did not take that step.
But Qin Chengjiao didn’t think so.
"Xiao Zun, big brother is leaving. Won't you come and see him for the last time?" Qin Chengjiao appeared behind Qin Zun with a body condensed from a thought.
Qin Zun turned around with some trembling. He lowered his head. The usually confident man seemed a little at a loss.
"I don't have much time left, but I still can say goodbye properly." Qin Chengjiao said in a relaxed tone. He walked past Qin Zun and lay directly on the recliner that had been placed under the peach tree. His lazy look was very similar to that of Qin Fan, who was also used to lying here before.
“Are you still fighting with yourself?”
Seeing Qin Zun remained silent, Qin Chengjiao sighed.
"If that's the case, why were you so eager to see me before?"
"I, I don't know." At this moment, Qin Zun was completely unlike the mature and steady appearance he showed when facing Qin Fan, Feng Mo and others. His nervous look was like that of a rookie who had not yet been baptized by the dangerous world.
In fact, this is also the appearance of Qin Zun that Qin Chengjiao is most accustomed to.
"It may be difficult for you to complete your self-healing. I don't have that much time. Faner can help you take the first step to get out of the closed mind and consciousness. I believe he can also resolve your knot in the future.
In fact, everything is not as complicated as you think. The real reason is not on you. It's just that the fire happened to borrow a little help from you, so it burned a little more vigorously. As for the ending, it is inevitable."
"You don't have to die!" Qin Zun said hurriedly. He didn't know what arrangements Qin Chengjiao had made for Qin Fan, but he could clearly feel that the other party was about to truly die.
Even if his existence was not wiped out directly from the root, even if he always remembered Qin Chengjiao, he would not be able to buy him a chance to revive.
Because this is Qin Chengjiao's choice.
"Ya'er has waited for me for more than 20 years. That's enough." Qin Chengjiao shook his head slightly. His tone was light but extremely firm.
He did not tell anyone about the information in "The Jade Book of the Heavenly Emperor". Even Duanmu Ya, who provided help in perfecting the technique, did not know how incredible the skill her husband had created was.
Only Qin Chengjiao and Qin Fan knew about the situation. In order to help the latter, Qin Chengjiao used his last strength as King An to build a solid pillar for him, which was what Qin Chengjiao considered to be the most meaningful sacrifice.
Part of the reason he made this decision was the death of his wife.
Duanmu Ya did not cultivate to the seventh level of immortality, so he could not find a chance to revive like Qin Chengjiao. He indeed died in that bloody night, and his heart, along with Qin Chengjiao's, was also buried in this villa.
"This is already the best result." Qin Chengjiao said lazily.
There was a sense of relief in his voice, as if the impending death made him feel more comfortable physically and mentally.
Qin Zun didn't understand. He was a playboy. Although he was devoted to every relationship, he had never thought of following someone's death after witnessing their death. Not to mention that Qin Fan was still alive and the other party was not without any worries.
But he would not continue to persuade him because he knew Qin Chengjiao's firm personality.
Moreover, he could truly feel that the other person's smile now revealed an unprecedented relaxation.
So all he could do was respect.
Although making this choice was extremely painful for him.
"I understand. I will take good care of the owner of the manor. But the current owner of the manor is worthy of being your son." Qin Zun tried hard to smile, and his tone revealed the pride that came from his heart.
"He is better than me." Qin Chengjiao smiled, not at all serious as he was when facing Qin Fan.
But then he changed the subject.
"But it is precisely because I know that he is stronger than me that I want to entrust you with a task."
"You say." Qin Zun's tone was impatient, as if only this could relieve his inner pain and guilt.
"If he is in danger, please tell my brother for me. After all, with Fan'er's personality, he will never ask for help from King Ying Realm. Oh, by the way, should we talk about the Great Qin Heavenly Palace next? It's really amazing."
Qin Chengjiao let out a long sigh. He actually knew everything.
He knows everything that happens in the Mountain and Sea Realm.
Including Leng Hanyi and Yu Cangmiao, two particularly weird junior brothers and sisters who are from the same sect as Qin Fan.
Just as Qin Fan still had many questions that he had not had time to ask Qin Chengjiao, Qin Chengjiao actually also had some things he hoped to find answers to from Qin Fan.
He had been waiting for the day when they would meet again.
It was only because of the experience of Qin Fan meeting the imprint of his soul left behind when he was comprehending the space that Qin Chengjiao's mind changed.
He had been able to give Qin Fan the best things he could think of.
It also provides them with the most suitable stage to display their ambitions and aspirations.
He did everything he could, including building the first powerful pillar for him that would not need to be replaced until he cultivated to the third level of the Jade Book of the Heavenly Emperor.
That's enough.
Qin Fan is not a child anymore, he even doubts himself. Although this incident made Qin Chengjiao a little hurt, he was even a little sad and stayed in this secret realm of karma fire for two days after receiving the mark of the soul.
But it was also this growth that made him realize that Qin Fan had grown up.
The young eagle always wants to break away from the protection of his parents to fly freely, so in the end he should not play the role of a nagging father anymore. He would rather leave a cold and domineering impression in Qin Fan's heart.
This is much better than asking questions that you know won't lead to anything crucial, but still going ahead and asking for trouble.
He believed that no matter what troubles there were in the future, Qin Fan would definitely find a way to solve them.
What it is doing now is to provide another layer of insurance for the other party.
But Qin Chengjiao's seemingly casual words made Qin Zun stunned.
"Do you want to talk to that person?"
"Well, after all, he is Faner's uncle and one of his few relatives in the world. Of course, because of me and Faner's personality, he will definitely not rush to become the prince of heaven.
But I hope that when Faner really encounters unsolvable danger, he can stand up and give me support.
This is what I, Qin Chengjiao, am asking of him as his brother.”
Qin Zun didn't know how to answer at this time.
Because he knew how strong Qin Chengjiao's desire to win over Ying was. Even when facing that bloody night before, Qin Chengjiao did not bring up Ying for help. And when he was practicing the Dream into the Heaven's Secret Reincarnation Method, Qin Chengjiao, who had suffered countless failures, had never bowed his head to Ying.
But at this moment, he used the word "plead".
In the end, for Qin Fan, Qin Chengjiao truly admitted his failure to Ying.
Qin Zun didn’t know what Ying would think when he knew about this, but now he felt inexplicably sad and indescribably moved.
"I see."
Qin Zun said solemnly.
“I will do it with my own life.”
"Don't!" Qin Chengjiao interrupted, "If you die, the world will be in chaos. Don't sacrifice your life for every little thing. I asked you to take care of Faner because you are also my brother and his elder.
This is a last wish before death, but you have to be bound by shackles."
Qin Zun nodded, but his stubborn silence showed that he obviously disagreed with the argument.
Even in reality, Qin Zun regarded Qin Chengjiao as the king in his heart. As for his brothers... Even though Qin Chengjiao mentioned them several times, it was not because of the favor he had shown long ago, or the guilt caused by the incident more than 20 years ago.
All of this made Qin Zun unwilling to admit that such a useless and lowly person like himself had no qualifications to be the other party's brother.
Qin Chengjiao could naturally see what the other party was thinking, but he really didn't have much time left.
There is no chance to enlighten the other party anymore.
The body transformed by this thought was becoming increasingly blurred, until Qin Chengjiao stood up and waved towards Qin Zun, then it shattered into illusory particles that disappeared into the sky.
And there was a violent vibration from the secret realm of karma fire under the peach tree!
Immediately afterwards, a powerful breath gushed out, and the boiling energy and blood turned into a red dragon roaring towards the sky!
Qin Zun didn't have time to continue feeling sad, so he hurriedly concealed the leakage of his breath and prevented this energy and blood from destroying the entire Wuyou Villa.
Then the peach tree that had stood in the backyard for a long time was overturned. A figure stepped out and with a wave of his right hand, the broken peach tree was restored to its original state, including the damaged recliner.
Immediately afterwards, Qin Fan jumped onto the recliner. He first nodded to Qin Zun, and then stared blankly at the red light of the sunset that passed through the gaps between the layers of peach petals.
The fatigue that surged in his heart made his eyelids start to twitch.
Gradually, after taking a last look at his personal interface which was undergoing some changes, Qin Fan fell into a deep sleep, while Qin Zun stayed by his side as usual.

Time passed quietly, and the entire mountain and sea world fell into a strange period of peace.
There is no more conflict among the top forces of all parties, and they all develop peacefully in their own territories.
Apart from a royal war in the Far West Demon Realm, the situation in Jiuzhou currently does not even have any minor friction.
Of course, the arrival of public beta players did cause some minor disturbances.
It's just because of the limited strength, and the fact that all parties have basically learned to use players to rule players, that some unexpected incidents have been fully prevented from happening.
Part of the reason for this is that the most noisy public beta players initially choose either the Far West Demon Realm or the World of Ten Thousand Beasts.
Anyone who is not so restless knows that the best thing to do in Jiuzhou, especially in the territory of Ghost City, is to survive for a while and develop steadily.
As for the Far West Demon Realm, the current royal melee is just a waste of effort by throwing players in, and it will not cause any big trouble at all.
As for the World of Beasts, various ferocious beast players have emerged. They specifically target humans, that is, the public beta players born in the World of Beasts, and even develop an offline industrial chain.
It is to trade, collect, and offer rewards for the flesh and blood of those powerful warriors, and mark the price with real currency.
For some kryptonians, this is actually the right track, because the growth rate of ferocious beast players is extremely fast, and in this way the more you feed them, the stronger they will become.
Especially today, the qualifiers for the third Taoyuan Cup Martial Arts Conference have officially started. Although it is only open to players who have participated in the three internal tests, it has also caused many public beta players to begin to urgently challenge their own combat power limits.
Those who knew they couldn't beat the beast players in terms of money have happily gone to the selection areas of major cities to watch the games.
It’s just that the viewing experience in a few places was not very good.
For example, in Yaofo City in the northeastern provincial capital.
On the wide arena, [Knife Maniac and Sword Fanatic], with a knife case on his back, was repeatedly confirming with the Tianji Hall member in charge of the selection for this event.
"So no first-time test player signed up in Yaofo City?"
The selection competition lasted for three days, and only the top one hundred players were selected from each group. This represented the nine states of the Mountain and Sea Realm. In each state, there were eleven regions, and each group had ninety-nine arenas. The hundredth arena was set up in southern Xinjiang.
It is obvious that the number of players in the first test is the smallest, and those who have some intelligence channels know that [Blade Maniac and Sword Maniac] has been staying at the King's Chess and Card Room in Yaofo City playing cards these days.
Those who choose the Yaofo City arena can stage the final battle in advance.
No one would be stupid enough to challenge the hell difficulty right away.
On the forum, there are special posts tracking the locations of some big players. Few people come to challenge them in the huge cities in their regions. This also leads to the situation where players crowd together in some corners for a spot. (End of this chapter)
