Chapter 380 Blood Moon
Urgent! Major plot twist! Watch now!
The Golden Priest stood atop the Tower of Imprisonment, gazing at the full moon in the sky without moving for a long time, as silent as a statue.
The top of the Tower of Imprisonment is a square, and he stands on the edge of one of the sides. Behind him is the base where the Xuanyuan Sword is placed, and above the Xuanyuan Sword is the floating Core of Imprisonment. As the tallest building in Crescent City, the Tower of Imprisonment is indeed a good place to admire the moon. If he takes just half a step forward, there is endless void, and the entire Crescent City seems to be prostrate at his feet.
The Tower of Imprisonment—what exactly is imprisoned within it?
"This blood moon must be quite intriguing." A man appeared beside him at some point, standing near the edge with his hands behind his back. The evening breeze gently swayed his white clothes, and his demeanor was composed and elegant. If Qin Xiaochuan saw him, he would definitely recognize this man as Du Cheng, whom he had met twice before.
The Golden Priest was not surprised at all by Du Cheng's appearance; he didn't even turn around to look at him.
"What are you thinking about? Power or redemption?" Du Cheng asked before the Golden Priest could speak.
"There's not much difference between the two. Sometimes redemption requires the support of power, especially in the world of Crescent City," the Golden Priest said slowly.
"The time has come," Du Cheng said. "Everything you want will soon be yours."
"Is this the only way to break the curse of the Blood Witch Clan?" the Gold Priest asked.
"You still don't believe what I'm saying," Du Cheng said. "Do you need me to show you that future again?"
"No need." The Golden Priest resolutely refused. The man beside him possessed extraordinary abilities, not only knowing others' past but also foreseeing their future. He was also well-versed in the affairs of both the Yin and Yang realms. Twenty years ago, when he met the man, the man showed him the future of the Blood Witch Clan. In the future, the Blood Witch Clan could completely break free from the torment of their own curse and live freely under the sunlight of Huaxu, just like normal people. Since then, he had been almost always led by the nose by the man. He knew in his heart how terrifying the man was and that he must have some unspeakable secrets, but the miracles the man displayed made him have no choice but to believe him, because only the man could give him, no, could bring hope to the entire Blood Witch Clan.
Despite this, deep down he still harbored a strange wariness towards Du Cheng, which was the reason for his hesitation. "I'm sorry, I must be careful. If you deceive me, then I will become a sinner of the Blood Witch Clan."
Du Cheng said coldly, "Becoming a sinner of the Blood Witch Clan is inevitable, at least that's how everyone else sees it. The key is that you yourself must understand what your purpose is in doing this. You are doing this only to save them. If you don't go to hell, who will?"
"I know exactly what I'm doing," said the Golden Priest, gazing at the entire Crescent City with a complex expression in his eyes.
Du Cheng noticed his hesitation and continued, "The Buzhou Realm is a place of exile. You are all sinners, exiled here and sentenced to life imprisonment. The punishment is eternal loneliness. Have you forgotten? What are you still clinging to? This cage? Or the punishment?"
The high priest frowned, and after a long pause, slowly said, "But besides this place, where else can we find a place to live?"
Du Cheng let out a soft chuckle, almost mocking, before saying, "Have you forgotten the prophecy of your Blood Witch Clan? When the thousandth Blood Moon appears, the ancient souls will break free from the prison of darkness, the forbidden blood will be reborn in the light, and the Tower of Imprisonment will shine with the light of redemption, illuminating everyone. You are the one chosen by fate; only you can light the Tower of Imprisonment."
Du Cheng paused here, then suddenly changed his tone and continued, "A person who is destined for great things should not be as indecisive as you. In the end, you are not as decisive as the previous Blood Witch King."
Du Cheng's words indeed provoked the Golden Priest, who said indignantly, "I am not a hesitant person. For the Blood Witch Clan, I will not hesitate to sacrifice my life. Now that I have made up my mind to take this path, I will never turn back. From today onwards, the Blood Witch Clan will be reborn."
Du Cheng looked at the Golden Priest's confident demeanor, a cold smile flashing in his eyes. In truth, he knew that the Golden Priest had already made up his mind. He was only saying these things to him today to confirm with him that what was destined to happen would not change.
