160: The reason he is like this is because he is controlled!

"You specifically came out, is there something you want to say?"

"Precisely!"

Duan Wenxian replied in a deep voice.

【Life Choice Triggered!】

【You talked him into it, finally persuading Nangong Haotian to allow you to atone for your mistakes. Now Immortal Cultivators Emperor Ning Qianyu has also given you a chance, you decide—】

【A: Talk nonsense.】

【B: Appeal to emotion and reason, making Immortal Cultivators Emperor Ning Qianyu determined to gift the meteorite to Nangong Haotian.】

【C: Ask Immortal Cultivators Emperor Ning Qianyu to gift the meteorite to yourself.】

【D: Ask Immortal Cultivators Emperor Ning Qianyu to swallow the meteorite.】

'Hmm...'

Lin Sheng hesitated for a moment, finally tentatively choosing D.

"What I want to say is..."

Facing the curious and disdainful gazes of the Immortal Cultivators, Duan Wenxian frowned with a serious expression and spoke in a deep voice: "I want to ask the Immortal Cultivators Emperor to swallow this little meteorite!"

......?

The Immortal Cultivators were stunned.

"What did he say?"

"It sounds like he asked the Immortal Cultivators Emperor to swallow the meteorite?"

"??"

【Breakdown Value +30】

Hall of True and Great Brightness seemed to turn into a question mark factory, and a large number of question marks instantly appeared on the foreheads of the Immortal Cultivators.

How did his thought process lead here?

Is he serious..??

Unexpectedly.

Ning Qianyu was not angry, but her eyes sparkled as she calmly asked: "Why?"

【You didn't expect the other party to actually ask you the reason calmly, which greatly exceeded your expectations.】

【But it doesn't matter, you know you have a hundred ways to fool her, you decide—】

【A: Tell her it was just a joke.】

【B: Remain silent, pretend to be a reclusive expert.】

【C: Lie and tell her that eating the meteorite is the only way to know its secrets.】

【D: State directly that it would make you happy.】

D.

"Why?"

Duan Wenxian was startled, then burst into laughter: "Because it will make me happy!"

"It's such a stupid thing for the Immortal Cultivators Emperor to eat a meteorite just because someone else told her to."

"If you do it, how can I not be amused?"

"Hahahahaha......!"

Over a thousand Immortal Cultivators in the entire Hall of True and Great Brightness watched the former Immortal Court Prince laugh heartily in front of the hall.

The atmosphere was extremely quiet.

Only his laughter echoed in the hall.

Ning Qianyu closed her eyes, making her thoughts unreadable.

Dongfang Xuan also laughed, his expression like watching a monkey show.

Nangong Haotian's face turned pale instantly, and he looked at Duan Wenxian with a man-eating gaze again.

The other Immortal Cultivators were bewildered, looking at him in astonishment.

"Hahahaha!"

"Hahahahaha......!"

【Breakdown Value +80!】

"I never thought..."

In the silence.

Ning Qianyu reopened her eyes and sighed softly: "I never thought that one day, I would personally kill you."

"Back then, your father... Nangong Haotian gave me many name tags for his child, asking me to help see which name sounded better, and I immediately took a liking to the 'Wenxian' tag."

"Forget it, forget it."

Ning Qianyu slowly raised her smooth and fair beautiful jade hand.

Just then!

From the crowd below, an old voice called out: "Immortal Cultivators Emperor! Show mercy!!"

As he spoke.

A black-clothed old man darted to the front of the hall, arriving in front of Duan Wenxian.

His posture suggested, "If you want to kill Duan Wenxian, kill me first."

"How is it him?! Old Man Tianji?"

"What is he going up for?!"

"Not sure... These two don't have much interaction, do they?"

The Immortal Cultivators looked at each other.

"Oh? Old Man Tianji?"

Although Ning Qianyu recognized him, she still lightly tapped her jade finger.

Boom!

Instantly, as if crushed by a huge air column, Duan Wenxian was instantly pressed to the ground, his bones shattering and blood spurting from his seven orifices!

In that tragic state, a mortal would surely die.

"Thank you, Immortal Cultivators Emperor, for showing mercy."

Old Man Tianji sensed that Duan Wenxian was not dead yet, and quickly bowed respectfully to Immortal Cultivators Emperor Ning Qianyu to express his gratitude.

Afterward!

He raised his head, straightened his back, cupped his fists to the four directions, and said: "Fellow Immortal Cultivators, I believe many of you are also very confused and do not understand Duan Wenxian's actions."

"But I can clearly tell everyone!"

"The reason he is like this is because he is being controlled!"

Being controlled?

The Immortal Cultivators frowned, lost in thought.

Lin Sheng wasn't flustered at all, and even showed a faint expectation.

"Yes!"

"And my ever-victorious intuition also tells me that the creature controlling him is still alive!"

?

"Although I don't know where It is, although I don't know if the other party is male or female, human, demon, or monster, my intuition is extremely sharp!"

"I just feel that although everything Duan Wenxian did just now was from his own heart, it is not his fault!"

"He was influenced and controlled by external forces!"

.......

The Immortal Cultivators thought that Duan Wenxian was really controlled by something.

But after listening to this, they couldn't help but laugh.

"Acting from his own heart and yet saying he's controlled? What is this Old Man Tianji talking about?"

"Isn't that a catch-all phrase to shirk responsibility? Although I killed you, although it was from my heart, you can't blame me? Because there's an external force influencing me?"

"Good heavens, if everyone threw all conflicts onto non-existent third parties like him, the whole world would be in chaos."

"Old Man Tianji is crazy, right? This means that any bad thing Duan Wenxian does is controlled by others, and any good thing he does is his own? What a joke."

"I think Old Man Tianji is the one being controlled..."

As the scene became noisy.

In front of Lin Sheng, the system message popped up again.

【Old Man Tianji actually said you were controlled, which greatly angered you.】

【You decide—】

【A: Retort to Old Man Tianji.】

【B: Admit to Old Man Tianji, say you were indeed controlled, and hope everyone can blame any wrong things you do on a third party.】

【C: Indifferent, ignore it.】

【D: Say that the one controlling you is Old Man Tianji.】

B.

After making his choice, Lin Sheng sighed in his heart: 'Now it will be completely unclear...'

Old Man Tianji's intuition was strong.

But no matter how many tens of millions of times stronger he was, he couldn't find him.

Only Lin Sheng knew that the so-called mysterious meteorite was actually just leftover scraps from the Truth Black Lotus creating little black lotus clones.

Let alone the small piece in Immortal Cultivators Emperor Ning Qianyu's hand.

Even the entire large meteorite back then couldn't compare to the corner of the little black lotus he absorbed today.

And the two little black lotus only managed to upgrade the system.

It's conceivable that only when the Truth Black Lotus reaches the 'Supreme' level should Lin Sheng worry about being discovered.

And from the fact that the system can completely absorb the little black lotus, he can conclude—

System >= Truth Black Lotus!

Coming back to his senses.

He looked at the hall in front, seeing the dying, blood-soaked Duan Wenxian struggling to raise his upper body.

Like a final dying declaration.

He spoke to the Immortal Cultivators in the hall: "Actually... Old Man Tianji is right, I am really being controlled."

"I hope everyone knows this."

"From now on, if I ever do anything harmful, it's because I'm being controlled. Please don't blame me, okay?"

【Breakdown Value +60!】

Listening to his words.

Countless people just sneered.
