Chapter 813: People Who Get in the Way
Li Shiwei didn't say much to Li Qi in the end.
She just stayed with Shen Shuibi and chatted for a while, and during this time, Li Qi came to the Demon Prince.
Before Li Qi spoke, the Demon Prince took the lead and said: "You are really amazing. You are already a fourth-grade, which is beyond my expectation. It's worth it that I regard you as a friend and try every means to save you."
"I told you not to attack my daughter. Why did you do this?" Li Qi didn't answer, but asked his own question.
"I didn't attack her. She came to me herself. She wanted to save you, but she didn't have enough ability, so she found me, and I... came to help you because we are friends."
"She is possessed by the devil." Li Qi said, with suppressed anger in his tone.
"Really? Are you going to blame me?" The Demon Prince tilted his head: "I never advised her, you know me, I never do such meaningless things."
"And, if you ask me, she was possessed by the devil because you forced her to do so. You put too much pressure on her. She urgently needs to improve her cognition and find her own way, so that she can help you."
"But she doesn't have enough experience and understanding. She can't see the big picture from the small, and she may even ignore the existing roads around her. In this case, it is impossible for her not to get stuck in a dead end. If she gets stuck in a dead end, then for you, it is naturally possessed by the devil. After all, your world is too complicated, not as simple as the magic way."
The Demon Prince rarely said a lot of words, and even directly used the adjective "possessed by the devil".
Originally, with his identity as a magic way, it is impossible to say that he is possessed by the devil, but Li Qi didn't care about these, but said: "That's because... you are too strong."
Yes, Li Qi guessed what Li Shiwei was thinking.
Li Shiwei needs power, and she wants to help.
So, who is she most likely to go to?
Of course, it was the ‘strongest’ in her eyes. The strongest person she thought was the Demon Prince.
In fact, it was true. No one in the fifth rank of the entire universe was the opponent of the Demon Prince. Even some weak, not good at fighting, and not strong enough fourth rank might not be able to beat him.
It was so unreasonable.
Just like now, facing the joint efforts of dozens of fifth rank of humanity, he broke through the opponent alone, like a tornado sweeping over the opponent, without even a little bit of difficulty.
After finding the Demon Prince, her mentality would naturally change.
The Taoist method she originally practiced was to take it slow, to advance slowly, to refine her heart through the mortal world, to summarize her own Tao little by little, and to make progress slowly. It was the authentic Xuanmen, open and aboveboard. Although it was slow, the progress was one point at a time, visible.
Her experiences in various worlds were all paving the way for these powers.
However, she had doubts about this.
Are these really useful? Why can't she make progress?
This doubt reached its peak after Li Qi and Shen Shuibi took risks and might even be pushed down by humanity.
Since outsiders can't believe it, just believe in yourself.
And believing in yourself can indeed bring immediate results.
There is no need to communicate with the outside world, no need to go to the mortal world to refine your heart, and no need to use the real world to verify what you think in your heart.
What I think is the truth.
Even if my thoughts are different from reality, it is the world that is wrong, not me.
Under this thought, all thoughts will not affect the Tao, and there will be no such thing as "Tao heart collapse". Even if your own Tao is completely denied, you can still move forward.
As long as you have firm beliefs and firmly believe that you are right, that is enough.
Although others may think you are "possessed by demons", "unrealistic", and "completely crazy", only you know that you are right and others are wrong. They just can't understand you.
Just like... now.
The pursuit of power, the misunderstanding of parents, but what she must do...
Even if the world does not understand her, she is alone and moving forward alone, she must do it.
With this mentality, the magic path is simply her best way out.
The ultimate self, implements her own will, is not hindered by the outside world and others. In this world, only "I" is right, and everyone else is just an obstacle.
To be honest, if it were not for the relationship with the demon, Li Qi actually did not think that the magic path was inferior to others, but it was because of the existence of the demon that the magic path became a public enemy.
After all, the magic path is a path that parasitizes on other paths.
You must first have a concept of the world, and then you can "become a demon" because of paranoia.
Seeing Li Qi silent, the Demon Prince did not stop talking, but said: "I didn't bewitch her to anything. I didn't even tell her what the Demonic Path was. She came to me for help, and I lent a hand, that's all."
"As for the reason why she became a demon, your reason is much bigger. Besides, from my point of view, the Demonic Path is not a bad thing, right? Live more freely, instead of being bound by the Taoism."
"The freedom of the Demonic Path... Forget it, I don't want to discuss this with you. I only know that this matter is definitely not that simple. The Heavenly Demon is still staring at me. You Demonic Path has no good intentions." Li Qi was a little tired, but as the Demon Prince said.
The Tao is your own, it was chosen by Li Shiwei herself, and no one can interfere.
Besides, entering a certain Tao is not an option.
This is not a game. There are several buttons in front of you. If you press any of them, you will join a certain path and gain certain abilities.
On the contrary, you must believe in something from the bottom of your heart, feel that something makes sense, and practice these principles, wholeheartedly explore this attitude towards the world and the way to transform the world. Then, after doing all this, you look up and find out... Oh, this is my path.
Everyone's path is completely unknown. The Taoism is just a classification. Even practitioners of the same Taoism have completely different views on the world. For example, the Taoism is divided into many factions, and each faction supports different views, but they have no differences in core views, so they are classified into one category.
Li Shiwei is not a child anymore. In all her past experiences, she has summarized and formed a set of her own views on the world, her own summary of values, and her own plan for life.
And all of this comes from her own thinking, and no one can interfere or change it.
Li Qi and the Demon Prince both know this, and Li Qi deeply understands that the Demon Prince did not lie.
So he was particularly angry.
Yes, no one did anything wrong, but things turned out like this.
This is not the work of the demon, what is it?
Li Qi is very familiar with the "coincidence" thing. Although he has no evidence and even his sixth sense is not used, as long as the result is inclined to the demon, Li Qi dares to guarantee with his head that it is definitely related to the demon.
Li Qi has a lot of thoughts on his side, but the demon prince is extremely simple.
Yes, extremely simple, he didn't think so much at all, his thinking organs were completely empty, just watching Li Qi's face over there, that face was green, black, white, and red, which made the demon prince feel quite interesting.
He watched all this with a cane, as for other things... he didn't care at all.
As he said, his magic way is very simple, the demon prince wants to do whatever he wants, and the world should be the way he sees it.
The demon prince who holds this attitude is naturally very simple, his motives and his behavior are so simple, rough and straightforward.
Li Qi's twists and turns are completely impossible to appear in his mind.
Of course, this is by no means to say that the Demon Prince is stupid. In fact, he is quite smart, extremely outrageous in all aspects, and each attribute is incredibly strong. Each grade can break the "theoretical limit".
This is simply an unimaginable record. The "theoretical limit" of the world is summarized and practiced by countless people in the entire universe. Although it is not an absolute truth, it is definitely a golden rule.
But the Demon Prince completely ignores it. He can break these golden rules at each grade and then create a new "standard".
His wisdom is not weak at all, but his wisdom tells him that he only needs to use his strength to solve most problems. For example, now, the seriously injured Li Qi is not his opponent.
The complete state is another matter. The complete fourth grade is still difficult to challenge.
However, for him, Baiyue is not important at all.
Seeing Li Qi's face changing constantly, Prince Devil spoke: "Okay, don't waste time, this has been resolved, then I will leave first."
"As for you want to find the culprit...then go find the Heavenly Demon, you and I both know that if there is a problem, just throw it to the Heavenly Demon, I also like to use this trick, anyway, just throw it to him, he is a scapegoat, everything is thrown to the Heavenly Demon, and no one will care." Prince Devil waved his hand, then turned and left.
Li Shiwei followed the other party.
Li Qi did not stop him, but he stopped Li Shiwei.
"Father... I just want to save you, but it seems that I am in your way again, don't worry, I won't do it again in the future." Li Shiwei looked at Li Qi and said so.
Li Qi wanted to say something, but he noticed Li Shiwei's attitude.
What was Li Shiwei thinking at this time?
He found out and couldn't stop it.
But what Li Shiwei and Prince Devil said did make Li Qi feel uncomfortable.
Prince Devil said it very clearly.
Prince Devil felt that it was Li Qi who forced Li Shiwei to become a demon.
Just like now: "I'm in your way again, I won't do it again."
Even Li Qi didn't know how to respond to this sentence.
Blame his daughter for being too nosy? Blame himself for not being able to defeat the enemy with ease? Or blame the Demon Prince for helping?
It doesn't matter, just like what I said just now, Li Qi can throw it to the Heavenly Demon as much as he wants, anyway, let the Heavenly Demon bear everything, it is the largest trash can in the universe, the collection of all evil thoughts.
This made Li Qi sigh.
Yes, there is no need to throw it to the Heavenly Demon.
It's hateful, if he could defeat Qiu Zhi with ease and win this battle, he wouldn't let Li Shiwei worry about him to this extent, so that in order to save his parents, he chose to beg the Demon Prince, and his own demon.
Li Shiwei and the Demon Prince turned and left, without even stopping.
At this time, Li Qi felt that someone was hugging him from behind.
Looking back, it was Shen Shuibi.
"Don't worry too much, she is a good child, this will not change because of the path." Rabbit said.
Li Qi held the other person's hand and sighed, "I'm afraid this is the catastrophe that Shi Yan mentioned... To be honest, I would rather let the catastrophe fall on me and let me face a powerful person than it is now."
"This is not something we can control... Don't be affected." Shen Shuibi said.
"It's okay, it won't affect me, but what about you? You are about to break through, is your body okay?" Li Qi turned around and glanced at Shen Shuibi.
"I'm fine, and don't indulge in family affairs for too long. There are many new fifth-grade Baiyue around, and everyone is watching." Shen Shuibi reminded.
With Rabbit's reminder, Li Qi woke up from Li Shiwei's affairs.
He turned his head and looked.
Indeed, many fifth-grade escaped.
Moreover, it was already night at this moment.
The moon began to occupy the sky.
From above the moon, the Emperor Liujiang like a river and sea fell from the sky.
"Everyone, you are all newly promoted to the fifth rank. I think you are also very curious about the affairs of Baiyue. Although you have some speculations in your heart, you have also experienced many thrilling adventures."
"Then, everyone, listen to my preaching and listen to the story of Baiyue by the way."
Li Qi smiled, then left Shen Shuibi's side, sat down cross-legged, and welcomed the landing of Emperor Liujiang.
At the same time, he also began to preach.
But he did not talk about those very profound principles, but narrated the history of Baiyue in a plain and straightforward manner.
Li Qi's own things in the era of boatmen, until the background of the human-witch war, and then to the war and progress of the previous sixty years, and the war of the Baiyue people themselves.
This war that lasted for sixty years ended just like that.
The creatures of Baiyue, in this war, used their actual results and spirit to prove that they are not only people who deserve freedom, but also people who can create great deeds.
The wisdom of life is advancing step by step under their unyielding, just like the progress that keeps rising like the tide, allowing Baiyue to finally resist the tide of humanity.
Of course, they could not do it alone. They had wisdom and determination, but humanity had far more wisdom and determination than them. However, with the help of witchcraft and magic, they succeeded.
But this does not mean that they stood up only by witchcraft and magic.
The knowledge of witchcraft and humanity poured in, but knowledge is just knowledge. If no one learns and no one can get the correct answer from it, then the knowledge is actually meaningless.
However, the creatures of Baiyue are diligently and willingly learning all this.
Their beliefs support them. Even if they cannot see the hope of victory in their careers, this momentum also inspires these creatures oppressed by the power of humanity.
When they lose oppression, when they can rely on their own strength to decide their own destiny, they will immediately feel a heartfelt joy.
This is the joy of being free from the "oppression of the world". Before, everyone was bound by the world, but now they have broken free.
This joy makes them feel that they have escaped from the unfortunate situation of being trampled as dust by various oppressors and have restored all their dignity.
And in order to prevent this dignity from falling and being covered with dust again, they are willing to do everything.
