The Eternal battle

Chapter 345: The Right Choice

" Hahahahaha "

Die Yingming couldn't help but burst out laughing.

" Change him? Hehehehe, girl, don't you know that you Argh! "

Before Die Yingming could finish his sentence, Shi Tu was thrown at Mingzhi Mei with a word in his face.

" Shi Tu! You bastard, just wait, don't think I'm going to cover you up this time. You will pay as soon as I tell him. "

Mingzhi Mei approached and grabbed Die Yingming's arm and dragged him away while the rest left in turn.

Zhan Xieshen didn't understand what was going on but looking at the atmosphere, he felt he had to leave now.

Looking at Alice, Zhan Xieshen thought of the proverb that says'' there was no point in raising a daughter '' but quickly shook his head because he couldn't say to himself.

Zhan Xieshen also turned to leave, but Shi Tu's voice stopped him.

" Old Ghost "

Shi Tu's voice rang in Zhan Xieshen' mind

Zhan Xieshen did not stop and nothing strange appeared, " Boy, isn't it time for you to change the way you call me? "

"It won't happen, not even in dreams, so forget it. "

" What do you want "

" Wufa Wutian is here in the Yin-Yang World, so you have to leave quickly before he notices, to not spoil my plan. "

Shi Tu seemed to remember something and said, " By the way, given our relationship now, why don't you join me? "

" You want me to listen to your orders? In your dream! "

" Of course not. "

Shi Tu condensed a soul crystal containing some information and threw it at Zhan Xieshen without anyone noticing.

Zhan Xieshen read this Memory Crystal and said, " Your plan is good to destroy all the Sovereign Realms at the same time, although there are a lot of things that this information didn't touch on how you would do it, you must be confident. "

" Sure "

" I don't mind cooperating, but I will deal with the giants and Olympus personally and kill them with my own hands. "

" Sure, but... can you spare Athena? She's on our side. "

Zhan Xieshen wanted to refuse, but Shi Tu said first, " You know very well my revenge with the giants. Isn't it fair that you also give up a little? "

" Okay "

Zhan Xieshen tore the void and left, leaving a man and three women in an awkward atmosphere.

.................................

Mingzhi Mei dragged Die Yingming away while Sun Chiwei's group did not dare to follow them and returned to collect treasures.

" Why did brother-in-law beat you? "

Die Yingming clicked Mingzhi Mei's forehead and said, "you now really call him Brother-in-law? "

Mingzhi Mei gently puffed her cheeks, " Am I wrong? "

" No "

Die Yingming shook his head and said, " He beat me for threatening to tell the brother of Sister-in-law Alice that the first brother intended to hide her existence from him. "

" Why would he do this? "

There was some hesitation on Die Yingming's face and he seemed unwilling to speak.

Mingzhi Mei frowned and said, " Don't you want to tell me? I don't mind you keeping some secrets but... is it too dangerous for you to tell me, your wife? "

Die Yingming showed some bitterness and said, " It's not like that, I just didn't want you to see so much darkness. If you insist, I can tell you. "

In short, there were two main choices for Alice.

The first, which is the logical one, is to reject Shi Tu's offer completely and lose her faith in him, and this is what Shi Tu wanted in the beginning.

If Alice did this, Shi Tu would be assured of her walking alone in the cultivation world and she would have a great chance of reaching the peak because she is someone who could decisively differentiate between emotions and reality.

In this case, they can help her from the shadows to pave her way and tell her the truth later when Alice reaches heights where she can understand their thoughts and most likely can understand their reasoning.

If she naively accepted Shi Tu's offer, that meant that she was ridiculously stupid and emotional because she truly believed Shi Tu could hand all his secrets and plans to her so simply after all the lies, he had told. 

This means that she is also very attached to Shi Tu, which will limit her future, so they will protect her at all times without endangering her life.

But she did not take either of these options.

Her decision can be considered naive in a way, but it can be said that her instincts are astonishing when she notices something strange.

Also, it's not that she trusts Shi Tu unconditionally too much, but rather that she realizes how deceitful he is. She simply refused so Shi Tu would not hold a grudge against her for spying on him.

She confidently said that she would change Shi Tu and understood the huge difference between them.

At least the education of Shi Tu was not wasted.

Therefore, it could be said that she made the ideal choice that even Shi Tu had not expected that she would make and did not even include it among the possible choices.

Upon hearing this explanation, Mingzhi Mei was truly speechless.

" Are you saying that brother-in-law made all this effort .... just because she is her brother? "

" Of course "

Die Yingming nodded and said, " Whatever the first brother act harshly with strangers, he is someone willing to do everything for the family "

" Isn't there another reason? For some reason he seemed strangely happy then. "

Die Yingming thought and said, " Well there is a possibility in my head but .. it is almost impossible so I guess the reason for his happiness is that he won't have to kill her in the future. "

Mingzhi Mei was surprised and said, " Why would he kill her? "

Die Yingming smiled helplessly and said, " Didn't I explain it to you before? Because of the vast difference, whichever option she choose among the two options, there is a high chance that she will betray us in the future and then ..First Brother will have to kill her as he always used to. " 

" Why? "

Mingzhi Mei couldn't understand, " Why would she do something like this? You obviously do everything for her. "

Die Yingming shook his head and said, " Because of the time pressure "

" The time pressure? "

'' yes "

Die Yingming nodded, "The resulting pressure on the aspirations of strangers, the weight of their attachment to us, and their inability to keep pace with us will generate ideas that we are willfully ignoring and isolating them from us. Not only that but will start to think that we are the reason for their inability to progress and that we are hiding the secrets of power from them and in the end ..... they will commit treason to prove to us that we are wrong "

" Even if we don't do anything, even if we do everything we have to help her rise, because of her mentality and choice, her future is limited and even we, can't do anything. "

" Why are you saying that like you're sure? Who knows the future? You just judge before you even try and ."

Looking at the sadness in Die Yingming's eyes, Mingzhi Mei remembered the past stories she had seen in the Dream and couldn't say anything.

They have every right to this prejudice because they have had many experiences before.

This tragedy happened to them many times before.

Die Yingming smiled and didn't blame Mingzhi Mei.

" It's okay, at least Sister-in-law is the first to make the right choice. Even the first brother couldn't hide his happiness. "
