Chapter 568 The Young Swordsman's Tale: Underworld Chapter 14
When they saw 'Xiao Ruojin' on the screen successfully recruit Ye Dingzhi, the three of them were extremely anxious: "He should use this time to go find Yi Wenjun and hurry up and create Xiao Yu."
Before seeing Xiao Yu, everyone thought Xiao Ruojin was not bad, believing that he could make the people live in peace and prosperity during his reign and could be considered a wise ruler.
But people are afraid of comparison.
After witnessing Xiao Yu's incredible and awe-inspiring actions, their opinion of Xiao Ruojin plummeted.
There's no comparison between the two of them at all!
Xiao Yu is meticulous, thinks three steps ahead, has a broad vision, lofty aspirations, acts decisively, and possesses cunning and methods far beyond those of ordinary people.
Most importantly, Xiao Yu can raise his hand and enter the Divine Realm of Profound Journey, and even domineeringly ascend to the heavens.
Can he, Xiao Ruojin, do it?
Is it possible?
Can... um?
What? ? ?
'Xiao Ruojin' actually entered a state of mental travel?
Emperor Xiaoyi, Emperor Xiaokang, Emperor Mingguan, and Emperor Tai'an clutched their heads in disbelief: !!
What exactly did they miss?
In an instant, the four men's previous contempt vanished, replaced by intense focus on Xiao Ruojin's every move on the big screen. Their initial shock and disbelief completely disappeared, replaced by a utter "Holy crap!"
Emperor Xiaokang finally couldn't contain himself and said with surprise and doubt, "Why does this 'Xiao Ruojin' on the big screen look different from the one we saw before?"
"Indeed!" Emperor Mingguan quickly echoed, "His temperament, demeanor, wisdom, skill, and even his style of doing things are exactly the same as Xiao Yu's."
Xiao Ruojin smiled and shook her head, then handed over the Heaven-Slaying Sword: "Take it."
"Brother, are you tired?" Xiao Ruofeng didn't think too much and carefully took the Heaven-Slaying Sword.
"It's yours!" Xiao Ruojin said calmly.
Upon hearing this, Xiao Ruofeng was taken aback at first. After realizing the meaning of those words, he quickly declined, saying, "How can this be? The Heaven-Slaying Sword is the foremost of the Ten Famous Swords, and its significance is extraordinary. How can you give it away so easily, brother? Take it back immediately!"
Xiao Ruojin: "You are none other than my younger brother. No matter how precious the Heaven-Slaying Sword is, it is still just a sword."
“You are my brother. I hope you can use this sword to protect yourself and us. No matter how precious the Heaven-Slaying Sword is, it is not as important as you.”
"Is Xiao Ruojin really that generous? He actually gave the Heaven-Slaying Sword to Xiao Ruofeng?" Emperor Mingguan was somewhat incredulous and couldn't help but turn to look at Xiao Ruofeng, who hadn't spoken since earlier: "Besides, are the two brothers really that close?"
Xiao Yi had already regained his composure. Hearing Emperor Mingguan's doubts and recalling the recent advancement of 'Xiao Ruojin' to the Divine Travel Realm,' a bold hypothesis quickly formed in his mind:
"Perhaps it's not that Xiao Ruojin's style of doing things is like Xiao Yu's, but that he and Xiao Yu are actually the same person."
Upon hearing this, everyone was stunned and looked at Xiao Yi in surprise.
“That’s right, that’s it! Xiao Yu is the reincarnation of Xiao Ruojin in this world.” Xiao Yi’s eyes gleamed, his tone filled with barely concealed excitement as he continued:
"This explains why the Xiao Yu we saw earlier, who was clearly not yet twenty, could act so shrewdly. Although his body was only nineteen years old, it contained the soul of Xiao Ruojin."
Because Xiao Ruojin in this world has entered the Divine Realm and has been recognized as the master of the Heavenly Slash Sword, Xiao Yu, even though his talent seems mediocre, can easily break through to the Divine Realm. In fact, in times of danger, the Heavenly Slash Sword will resonate with him and protect him.
Therefore, Xiao Yu would call Xiao Ruofeng's tombstone "younger brother";
Therefore, Xiao Yu's angry rebuke of Baili Dongjun and the others was genuine; he truly felt Xiao Ruofeng was undeserving and wanted to avenge him!
As everyone listened to Xiao Yi's words, they silently compared Xiao Yu with 'Xiao Ruojin' on the big screen and instantly realized the truth.
"I see!"
"No wonder when I first saw Xiao Yu, I felt that many of his behaviors didn't make sense."
"Yes! If that's the case, it would explain why Xiao Yu valued Xiao Lingchen so much back then, and why he showed mercy to Xiao Chong and Xiao Chuhe."
Everyone nodded, and when they looked at the big screen again, their previous unease had vanished.
If the reincarnated Xiao Yu is so powerful, then the 'Xiao Ruojin' in this world must be just as amazing.
Xiao Ruofeng on the other side was completely stunned, staring at the big screen in disbelief.
Xiao Ruojin's words, "No matter how precious the Heaven-Slaying Sword is, it's not as important as you," still echoed in my mind.
So, in this parallel world, he and his brother had such a good relationship? So much so that his brother was willing to give him the Heaven-Slaying Sword without hesitation.
Why did he and his brother end up like that in the original world? Where exactly did things go wrong?
Xiao Ruofeng's eyes gradually reddened as he stared intently at 'Xiao Ruojin' on the big screen. His throat felt like it was blocked by a wad of cotton, unable to swallow or spit it out, making him feel suffocated.
Suddenly, it dawned on him!
It was because he didn't trust his elder brother at first, mistakenly believing that his brother had been corrupted by power, that he was the first to distance himself from his brother, and began to "compromise" in a self-sacrificing manner, but in reality he was not as he thought, and his words and actions were full of contradictions.
In fact, his elder brother had never changed; it was he who misunderstood his brother's good intentions.
His elder brother had always been thinking of him, knowing that he couldn't bear to kill General Ye Yu's only bloodline, so he released Ye Dingzhi and even painfully gave up the great beauty Yi Wenjun.
If he had trusted his brother a little more and told him about Ye Dingzhi's attempt to abduct the bride, the future would have been completely different.
Ye Dingzhi would not be lured into demonic possession, nor would he lead the demonic sect on its eastern expedition. Instead, he would join his elder brother's sect and embark on the righteous path.
Thinking this, Xiao Ruofeng felt an overwhelming sense of regret. Tears welled up in his eyes, threatening to spill over.
"It turns out, I was the one who was wrong all along..."
At this moment, Xiao Ruofeng had no idea that this 'Xiao Ruojin' was not the same as that Xiao Ruojin.
In his original world, even if he told his brother about Ye Dingzhi's abduction of his bride, he would only receive an order to kill Ye Dingzhi, thus deepening the rift between the two brothers.
The images on the big screen continued to play, and Xiao Ruojin's actions amazed everyone.
It turns out that 'Xiao Ruojin' is even more enjoyable in this world than she was in the world where she was Xiao Yu, and she acts even more decisively and efficiently.
Even with Emperor Tai'an, a father who liked to harm his son and take sides, Xiao was still able to quickly consolidate the court's power and drive Prince Qing and Prince Luoyu to the brink of despair.
They swiftly and decisively killed the four experts that the two had colluded with Nan Jue to acquire, then drove away Li Changsheng, and with the help of Baili Dongjun and Yue Yao, obtained the Pofeng Army from Baili Luochen. They even boldly put Baili Chengfeng to use.
Inside the hall, everyone was completely absorbed in the spectacle, while outside the door, Xiao Ruojin felt her hands and feet turn ice-cold.
