Han Baling was indeed the Nascent Soul Stage Cultivator with the highest deduction abilities among the twelve experts from the Ancient Sages Sector. Or maybe he was able to a.n.a.lyze the whole event from a higher level because he was an outsider. After only a few words, he had managed to connect the disordered clips together as if they were glittering pearls.
Although it was not entirely flawless, it was at least self-consistent and could explain the situation perfectly.
Li Yao thought for a moment but shook his head. “No. Had it not been for our sabotage in Hundred Flowers City and our unexpected arrival to demolish the Black Wind Fleet’s s.p.a.ce gate, Boss Bai wouldn’t have been able to reverse the situation no matter how glamorous his sudden a.s.sault was. However, no matter how wise and meticulous Jin Tuyi was, he couldn’t have foreseen our arrival, could he?”
“No. So, Jin Tuyi was taking a gamble, too. Or rather, he had no choice except to wager on the happening of a miracle,” Han Baling replied. “Man proposes, G.o.d disposes. Even on the tiny, sole planet of the Ancient Sages Sector, who of the heroes competing for the hegemony of the world dare to declare that fate is in their favor and that they would surely claim the world? Didn’t they just unleash all their wisdom, determination, and valor and wager on the slim hope whose odds might be only one millionth?
“For Jin Tuyi, he had done everything he could under such circ.u.mstances. He had burnt his entire life without any reserve and released the most splendid, tenacious, and powerful strength in the deepest part of his soul. Then, the only thing that he could do in the next was to pray… that there were indeed miracles in the universe, right?”
Han Baling put on a rare smile and said to Li Yao, “I remember that this is what you said before, quoted in multiple editions of the Chronicles of Li Yao. This time, you have indeed brought a new miracle to Jin Tuyi, to Boss Bai, and to everybody of the Star Glory Federation.”
Li Yao coughed.
He was not necessarily a humble and low-profile man, and he was secretly delighted for his ‘grand return’ and ‘miraculous appearance’, too.
But right now…
Boss Bai first and then Jin Tuyi, the two old seniors taught him what a ‘miracle’ really was with their actions!
“Miracles do not happen because of prayers; Senior Jin Tuyi created one by himself,” Li Yao said solemnly. “I did not bring a miracle to him. It was Jin Tuyi who brought the greatest miracle to me, to his daughter, to everybody of the whole federation, and to himself!”
“Yes.” Han Baling nodded and said, “I believe that Jin Tuyi must’ve been elated when the news of victory was over and learned that Black Swirl, the Imperium’s s.p.a.ce gate, and the extraterrestrial devils had been located and destroyed.
“Perhaps n.o.body else in the whole federation had known the causes and consequences of the event and the dread of the extraterrestrial devils better than him. He was the one who understood how difficult and unbelievable the triumph was best, too. How could he have not roared in ecstasy for such a glorious victory?”
Jin Xinyue could not help but interject, “But he—”
“Yes. He chose death because he knew that the war was not over yet. He still needed to pour his infinite fury on the shameless extraterrestrial devils as the final closure!”
Han Baling curled his fingers and tapped his temples softly. “I believe that after all these years when he resisted the extraterrestrial devils, Jin Xinyue’s soul and brain must’ve gotten even worse. They were more severely damaged and about to fully collapse. Jin Tuyi was merely sustaining himself with the toughest willpower.
“Most importantly of all, although the extraterrestrial devils in Hundred Flowers City and the Black Wind Fleet were all slain, some of the ‘hidden problems’ might still be lingering deep inside Jin Tuyi’s brain.
“With the cunningness of the extraterrestrial devils, it would’ve been perfectly normal for them to implant something redundant into Jin Tuyi’s brain when they had procedures on him, right?
“That something might not be the real extraterrestrial devil but some sort of ‘seed’. Let’s call it ‘devil seed’ for now. Perhaps, after the devil seed sensed that the mature ent.i.ties of the extraterrestrial devils had all been annihilated, it would be automatically fertilized and continue bringing disasters to the human world.
“But the extraterrestrial devils could never have foreseen that Jin Tuyi’s mind could be as st.u.r.dy as such. They had truly chosen the wrong ‘host’ this time.
“Didn’t the eyewitnesses report that black flames dashed out of Jin Tuyi’s brain and that a tiny shadow seemed to be struggling crazily inside the fire before it was obliterated? Chances are that Jin Tuyi took the ‘devil seed’ to the deepest level of h.e.l.l where nothing would ever return with his last shred of life.
“This is about everything according to my deduction. There must be a lot of errors in the details. A lot of questions are not answered yet and perhaps will never be answered in the future.
“But I believe that this is the core of the whole event. Jin Tuyi was the real hero who supervised the whole situation behind the curtain and dealt a fatal blow to the extraterrestrial devils!”
