Chapter 1619: Chapter 518: Dark Forest

The Virgo quickly bade farewell to Wen Xishu.

The words she left for Wen Xishu were quite shocking.

Yet Wen Xishu always felt that among those words, there was one or two sentences that were problematic.

Wen Xishu pondered silently.

He moved forward in the direction indicated by the Compass.

With Liu Jianxin following beside him, he felt much safer.

Since Liu Jianxin’s strength was recognized by the Virgo, it must have significantly improved by now.

Liu Jianxin was also well aware that Wen Xishu had something on his mind, but he remained silent. After bidding farewell to the Virgo, he quietly followed Wen Xishu, also observing his surroundings like a reliable bodyguard.

Wen Xishu actually still remembered that Wen Chaohua had mentioned a sentence in the old house:

"This conspiracy involves many matters, not just Gemini, but also Pisces and Capricorn."

This sentence certainly wasn’t a lie to him.

Firstly, before Wen Chaohua became Gemini, he himself should have been in the "Evil Land."

He indeed possessed... a complete memory, a complete human memory from childhood.

If at that time Wen Chaohua wasn’t Gemini, nor was he Gemini himself...

Then who was the "Gemini" at that time?

The power of Pisces is related to time.

The power of Capricorn is related to space.

Wen Xishu felt there must be a lot of room for maneuver here, but...

How should it be maneuvered?

Could Pisces send a person back to the past... to become a child? She couldn’t possibly do that, right?

Could Capricorn allow a person to enter the Evil Land without leaving a trace, and then enter the Bunker? It seems unlikely. After all, from the current perspective, merely returning to the Bunker would require a "sacrifice."

Therefore, the authority to cheat with space and time doesn’t match up.

Moreover, Capricorn and Pisces... have no memory in this regard.

This is what Wen Xishu couldn’t figure out.

He felt there was a sentence from the Virgo that might be wrong, and only if that sentence was wrong could Wen Xishu figure some things out.

He began to think about the details. This was what he excelled at.

"Everyone longs to become a twin. Outside of battles, this is the only way to enhance the power of the authority."

"Pisces and Capricorn... their authority is insufficient to support a particular plan, but what if there is a way to enhance it?"

"Gemini can erase both the memory of the twins themselves and everyone’s memory of the twins."

"This conspiracy involves Pisces, Capricorn..."

Wen Xishu suddenly stopped in his tracks.

"I seem to have a vague idea of how it could possibly be done to achieve this situation."

That sentence must be problematic, but Gemini, or rather Wen Chaohua, had to say it that way; only by saying it that way would it make sense.

The sentence is — Yet the brother and the younger brother, no matter how they exchange strengths and weaknesses, have always been those two people, never changing from start to finish.

Wen Xishu was sure that if this sentence wasn’t true, if Gemini had changed, even for a very short time, then everything could be connected.

He was a bit excited but soon calmed down.

Liu Jianxin said:

"Are you okay?"

Wen Xishu said:

"I’m okay. From your perspective, I’m in the middle of a monumental secret, shrouded by a conspiracy."

"But this conspiracy might be something I designed myself."

Liu Jianxin didn’t understand:

"I don’t get it, but it doesn’t matter. Whether it’s a conspiracy or not, I trust your character."

Wen Xishu smiled.

The secret of Gemini remains to be unearthed. The current self must not consider himself as Gemini.

The Tree and the Flower are both still too weak. Currently, looking at the pace of the plan between himself and Wen Chaohua, it can be said that it has not failed, but it’s still a long way from success.

There is one thing Wen Xishu can be sure of. It is also one of the few things that do not require rational judgment.

"I can absolutely trust Wen Chaohua. We are brothers, the most trusted brothers."

Since Wen Chaohua said he would do enough to overturn others’ destinies, then I would do it too.

When we meet again in the future, it will surely be when the world undergoes significant change.

Wen Xishu no longer obsessed over this and turned his attention to what he would face next.

"Brother Liu, what’s your combat power like right now?"

Liu Jianxin said:

"Now my Inconstant Sword can easily slay demons, though I’m not sure exactly how strong I am."

Wen Xishu tentatively said:

"Red House?"

"Is it the kind of demon that induces sky anomalies and turns the clouds bloody? I’ve slain it before, not easy but not too difficult, either," Liu Jianxin said with a smile.

Wen Xishu felt assured.

That was the peak of the Red House, akin to masters on the level of Tang Rui and Qing.

This is truly a master. Arguably the strongest force below the constellations.

However, compared to the constellations, the gap seems huge. But being stronger than myself is good.

Wen Xishu said:

"Twilight is approaching; let’s find a place to settle down first. The place we’re headed next is extremely dangerous, we might face a constellation."

Liu Jianxin was full of passion:

"The Sect Masters of the Twelve Sects, the twelve grandmasters of this martial world, I know, there is still a wide gap between us, but a sword only becomes stronger when wielded against such opponents!"

"One day, I will also reach that level."

Wen Xishu wondered... Not just the world he saw, even words, perhaps even scents, in Liu Jianxin’s view, were "Wuxia-ized."

It seems I don’t need to deliberately translate it; the content Liu Jianxin hears is already translated.

This is rather convenient, saves effort.

...

...

In the following two days, Wen Xishu and Liu Jianxin continued their journey, and along the way, they encountered several battles.
