On the grasslands outside the Lake of Truth, six figures sat gathered together: the Heroes, Vega, who had been waiting outside all along, and the Demon King, Chu Ke.
"Wait, wait, let me get this straight." Vega clutched her head, her expression strange. "You're saying the Heroes' original mission was to destroy the world, while Chu Ke, who had been following us the whole way, was actually the Demon King meant to save it?"
"That's completely backwards, isn't it?!"
After leaving the Lake of Truth, Zhang Xiu ultimately decided to tell Chu Ke the whole truth.
Before this, Zhang Xiu had still harbored some concerns—what if that bizarre Multiverse Chat Group was the Demon King Chu Ke's skill, specifically meant to mislead his judgment? But after witnessing Chu Ke's strength, he had let it go. The other party had no need to deceive him. He could probably blow Zhang Xiu away with a single breath until not even his bones remained.
But the old man who claimed to be his past self could not have been fake either, because Zhang Xiu had clearly sensed at the time that the old man had truly appeared through his own skill. There was no possibility of forgery.
Then there had to be some sort of misunderstanding between the information provided by the two sides.
But whatever that misunderstanding was, it was no longer his problem to solve.
Zhang Xiu decided to give up trying. If the sky fell, the tall people would hold it up. So he laid out every fact and every detail, leaving Chu Ke to judge for himself.
What? You were asking why he had gained a chance at reincarnation in his previous life because he had refused to accept defeat, only to give up again in this life? Heh.
