Chapter 370 You are not sincere
In the belly of the mountain, at the bottom of Zhangcheng underground base.
The moss-covered mountain wall was chiseled open, revealing a huge stone Buddha statue lying peacefully. Cold underground river water flowed beneath the Buddha's lowered eyelids. A magic circle composed of green diamond-shaped gems in the air slowly rotated, dyeing the deep and empty cave a fluorescent green.
Jing sat leaning against a huge rock by the underground river, playing with a handful of small pebbles leisurely.
In front of him, a tall, hooded man was trapped in a rectangular cage of shadows.
The man took off his hood, revealing the face of a handsome middle-aged man who looked somewhat similar to Jing Po.
Adrian, who used Tuoba Zong's true face, said in a comforting and loving tone: "My most beloved child, we left in a hurry last time, and your brother was beside me, so I couldn't ask you properly, how have you been these years?"
Jing Youyou sighed, "How can a ten-year-old child without a father or a mother have a good life? But no matter how hard it was before, it is better now."
Adrian looked ashamed and self-blaming: "I'm sorry for making you suffer."
Jing shrugged indifferently: "It doesn't matter. If I don't suffer, how can anyone feel sorry for me?"
Adrian observed Jing's expression and said patiently, "Child, now that we are reunited as father and son, as long as you come with me, I will take good care of you from now on."
Jing's eyes curved slightly, and he tilted his head and asked, "What about my brother?"
Adrian said disdainfully: "Your brother has a bad temper and is an ungrateful person. It's better not to mention him."
Jing shook the pebble in his hand and smiled slightly: "No, I see that my brother is well taken care of by my sister, so it must be you who didn't take good care of him, right?"
Adrian's face darkened. "He is so stupid and foolish. He is blinded by lust. You must not learn from him for a woman like that."
Jing casually raised his hand and threw a pebble in his hand suddenly. The pebble successively shattered the three green gems in the magic circle that was slowly rotating in the air. The magic circle suddenly lost a corner, the mountain belly trembled, and broken stones kept falling into the water from the top of the cave.
Jing chuckled: "I seem to slip my hands whenever I hear something I don't like."
Adrian frowned fiercely. Of course, he couldn't have any feelings for Jing, nor did he think that he could persuade Jing to change sides with just a few words. He just wanted to delay a little time.
He was not going to anger Jing anymore, so he said, "With so many men around her, how much attention can she pay to you? Good boy, since you like her too, how about Daddy helping you snatch her away?"
Jing's smile deepened: "There are so many men around my sister, all of them are older than me. If they can monopolize my sister by snatching her away, why don't they snatch her away?"
"You keep saying you want to be nice to me, but you give me bad advice. You're not sincere."
After saying that, he threw another pebble, shattering three gems in the magic circle.
Half of the magic circle collapsed suddenly, and the light emitted from the magic circle decreased sharply. Adrian's eyes focused, and the part of the magic circle that absorbed energy was destroyed by Jing.
In this case, there was no need for him to pretend anymore. Adrian resumed his indifferent and arrogant expression: "I'm just making a suggestion. If you're willing to be a fish in her pond, what can I do?"
Jing was not angry. He took out another pebble and tossed it in his hand, then asked with a smile, "Why are you angry? You are so old, but you are still so naive. Did you forget to put your heart back when you were resurrected?"
Adrian snorted but didn't say anything.
Jing knocked on the shadow cage with a pebble and asked curiously, "I'll ask you a question. If you answer it well, I'll let you go. How about that?"
Adrian's dark brown eyes fixed on Jing: "What's the problem?"
"The last time we met in Frost City, my brother saw your back and called out a strange name, Adrian. Do you know what it means?" Jing said with a smile.
He was curious about his past life, and Adrian's brain was working at high speed.
He thought of the perfect plan he had set up in his previous life.
Suspicion is always the most powerful weapon to destroy a team.
Adrian's voice was low and magnetic. He whispered, "My silly child, you talk about your brother every three sentences, but do you know what he did to you in his previous life in order to monopolize that woman?"
Jing didn't respond.
Adrian sighed deeply and said, "Your deaths in the previous life were all caused by him. And now, he clearly remembers those things, but he can still shamelessly meet you, the people he killed once, day and night, and call you brothers. Such a deep-minded and cruel person is not worthy of you calling him brother."
Jing stroked the pebbles in his hand and smiled: "Did I ask you this? I asked you who Adrian is, why are you telling me this?"
Adrian curled his lips: "Isn't this more important than who Adrian is?"
Jing threw another pebble with his backhand, shattering the three green gems in the air.
"Boom--" The mountain shook violently, and for some unknown reason, the water in the underground river churned as if it was about to boil.
Jing smiled again and said, "Since you know about the past life, you are not my father. You are not my father, and you still want to teach me how to do things. Do you think you should die?"
After that, Jing stopped talking nonsense with him. The shadow cage compressed inwards, and was about to squeeze Adrian into a meat patty. Suddenly, a shocking explosion came from the underground river behind Jing, and a lightning-like crack quickly extended from the river bank towards the shadow cage. Jing was startled, and the last pebble flew out of his hand. At the same time as the last three green gems in the magic circle exploded, the shadow cage fell into the abyss under the crack, suddenly shrank in mid-air, and exploded into a bloody mist and meat paste.
At this time, the magic circle in the underground cave had dissipated, and the deep darkness submerged the entire cave. In just a moment, a thick, scaly, long-tailed fish in the abyss swam away and quickly sank into the bottomless darkness.
Jing Jian frowned slightly, feeling a little strange.
What it is?
However, his father's skin had indeed been crushed by the Shadow Cage. No matter whether that soul from nowhere was dead or not, he could no longer use his dead father's face.
As for what he said, about his cheap brother killing them in his previous life.
Jing raised his eyebrows, he really wasn't surprised at all.
The Hellwell was closed, and when Jing returned to the ground, the remaining monsters and demons had been almost wiped out.
There was a piece of open space on the noisy and busy tarmac, and Jing saw Ai Wanxin who was surrounded by people in the center.
Jing walked out from the shadow passage behind her and said obediently, "Sister, I turned off the magic circle."
Ai Wanxin smiled at him and quickly turned her gaze back to the corpse on the ground.
