Chapter 560 The Fate of Fire Mist
Seeing Xia Na sitting naked in the bathtub in a quite natural posture in front of her, Mu Qingzhi couldn't help but fall into silence.
Although she had been dragged into a bath by Eri in the past, the situation in front of her was obviously completely different from that time...or was it still similar?
For example, Eri doesn't have much common sense about life, and Shana doesn't have much common sense about life either...
Mu Qingzhi looked uncomfortably elsewhere and curled up subconsciously, complaining in her heart.
Shana grew up in a place like Tiandao Palace. For more than ten years, apart from a skeleton and a maid who couldn't even cook, there was only Alastair who was still a ball of flame. .
People who grow up in such an environment are bound to have many deficiencies in common sense of life, so the other party's behavior of barging in directly without knocking on the door may still be understandable...
"Look at me, I have something to talk to you about."
Mu Qingzhi hadn't finished thinking about one thing. The next moment, Shana held her cheek with her hands and turned her face away with dissatisfaction, and then looked into her eyes with a serious face.
"Also, do you know that your behavior is very rude?"
Mu Qingzhi: "..."
... She felt that the other party was not qualified to speak against her.
"I don't think this is the right place for conversation."
The corners of her eyes twitched slightly, and Mu Qingzhi took the other person's hand off her face.
"If you want anything, why don't we go to the living room together after I take a bath?"
"Why doesn't it fit?"
Tilting her head, Xia Na looked slightly confused.
"In the past, if Wilhelmina wanted to talk to me about important things, she would always do it while taking a bath."
“…”
...Mu Qingzhi found that she seemed to have found the culprit.
"At least remember to knock on the door next time you come in...forget it, tell me, what's the matter?"
Seeing the doubtful expression on the other person's face that didn't seem to be fake, Mu Qingzhi reached out and pressed her forehead, and sighed helplessly.
"About the ritual snake, I will explain it in detail later. You don't need to be so anxious, right?"
"...It's not about the ritual snake."
After a moment of silence, Shana shook her head.
"No? What else is there?"
Looking at Xia Na in front of her, Mu Qingzhi couldn't help being slightly stunned.
"Aside from his matters, I have nothing on my side..."
"What are our parents like?"
After interrupting her words, Shana looked at her seriously.
"I was brought back to Tiandao Palace by Wilhelmina when I was very young, so I don't remember many things. I don't even know that I have a sister. Now that everyone else is gone, I want to know something In the past..."
"Call sister."
Mu Qingzhi physically interrupted the other person's words by tugging on the other person's cheek with her hand, and bared her teeth at the other person.
"In terms of time, I'm older than you. Even if I'm older by a second, I have to call you sister. Don't think about overstepping me."
Shana: "..."
She actually wanted to resist, but after some attempts, she sadly found that she was not as strong as the other party...
"My stupid sister, there is no point in delving too much into the past. We might as well focus on the future, do you understand?"
Before the opponent was about to explode, Mu Qingzhi pulled back her hand in time.
"Rather than these, it's better to ask some interesting things."
Mu Qingzhi raised a finger in front of her and ignored the angry look on Shana's face. Mu Qingzhi looked serious.
"For example, what are your future plans and life ideals."
In the original plot, Shana's life experience was not highlighted, but this kind of thing can actually be understood with a little inference.
In the beginning, it was Wilhelmina who brought the infant Shana back to Tiandaogong for training. So what kind of situation would make Huowu notice that she was an ordinary human being who was a baby?
...When all the other party's family members were eaten up by the gangsters, and only the other party was left alone.
In this world where apostles are overflowing, this kind of tragedy is not uncommon. It is even very common. It does not even require the King of the Red World. A disciple of the Red World can eat hundreds of people in one go. Shana's experience is just like countless others. It’s just a microcosm of human experience.
Of course, when she got involved, what happened to Shana might be mistaken as a trap set by the Ritual Snake for the Heaven and Earth Tribulation... But it wasn't her who took the blame anyway, so it didn't matter.
Anyway, the snake being sacrificed is very wealthy and shouldn’t care about such trivial matters as reputation...
"Future plan……?"
It seemed that she had never thought about this question. When Mu Qingzhi asked this question, Shana, who was still angry at first, couldn't help but froze.
"Well... it means what do you want to do in the future and what kind of person do you want to be? This question is very simple, right?"
"...become a fire mist as powerful as the previous generation of contractors?"
After thinking for a moment, Shana answered hesitantly.
"I heard Alastair and Wilhelmina say that the previous generation's flame-haired Sakugan was the strongest fire mist in the world. Since I inherited her name, I will naturally work hard to grow into... …”
"No one's future is to become someone else."
Shaking her head, Mu Qingzhi interrupted the other party's words.
"Let's take a step back. Even if you really become the strongest fire fog in the world, what will happen next? What can you do after you become the strongest fire fog?"
"Of course, it's to protect the balance of the world."
As if she heard the disdain implied in her words, she looked up at her and frowned.
"The duty of the fire fog is to protect the balance of the world. I became the fire fog with this awareness."
"The awareness is right, but the method is wrong."
Not in a hurry to refute the other party, Mu Qingzhi shrugged slightly.
"Even if you become the strongest fire fog, you still can't change anything. The last generation of Yanfa Burning Eyes was very strong, right? That was the strongest fire fog in the world, but in the end, did she change anything? The world is still the same as before. The fight between the fire fog and the apostles that lasted for thousands of years is still going on. Everything is still repeated back to the starting point, over and over again."
Turning his head, Mu Qingzhi looked in the direction outside the bathroom.
"It was like this thousands of years ago, and it will be like this thousands of years later. Not only Huo Wu, but also the apostles have fallen into this vicious circle called fate. No one can break free, and they can only let it continue... But there is one thing that you all forgot."
"It is not fate that shapes us, but we shape fate."
