Chapter 1290 - The Tower of Wisdom (1/2)
Jing Yi hesitated for a moment. He definitely wouldn't mind going to take a look and finding out but he also didn't want to miss out on being able to see more of the city. But then again, he would probably also be able to look around later on. Nobody said that they had to do it all immediately.
Thinking of that, he finally nodded. ”Yes, let's do that. I guess in the end, we can just go and look around further when we have taken a look at the tower. There's no need to do everything at once, is there? In any case, it'll probably take a few days for them to come up with something, right?” Find authorized novels in , faster updates, better experience, Please click #.-my.-fate-!_10609838905077905/the-tower-of-wisdom_51976188930876930 for visiting.
Qiu Ling felt complicated when Jing Yi said that. In any case, what this basically meant was 'they will need a few days before they decide how to kill me', didn't it? That was definitely something he didn't want Jing Yi to think about it. But he was right. Sooner or later, the gods would come up with something. Thinking of that, he sighed and then nodded. ”Yes, it probably will.”
Jing Yi smiled and grabbed his arm, forcing himself to show a smile. ”Don't look like that. You'll make me feel guilty for saying it in the first place and making you unhappy. It's okay. I know that this isn't your fault. This is just how things are. I'm sure we'll be able to deal with it somehow.”
Qiu Ling nodded but he didn't really feel happy. If he could, he definitely wanted to make things easier for Jing Yi. ”Well, let's go then. If there's something else you want to take a closer look at, just tell me. I'll take you there.”
Jing Yi nodded and continued to hold onto his arm. ”Yes, don't worry. I'll tell you if I think of something.”
The two of them went over to the Tower of Wisdom while Jing Yi pondered what he had found out so far. He was a little angry about the thing with the scroll of fate but that Fate's Scribe had just done his job. He would like to go and find out what exactly his original fate said but he didn't know if it was possible. That was something he would either have to ask Qiu Ling or he would have to find out here in the Tower of Wisdom. He didn't really think that Qiu Ling would be able to give him an answer so it would likely be the latter.
Then, he would also like to find out more about the people that were close to Jing He. He didn't know what he could do with that kind of knowledge but just having it in the first place might be helpful later on. The easiest person to approach would probably be his uncle. They had already met once and back then, he hadn't shown any bad attitude. Even today, he had seemed a little apologetic. He was definitely much better than Jing Yi's parents, especially his father. So if he wanted to make some progress and could somehow use these people for that, then Jing He's uncle would be the first he should start with. After that would come the Heavenly Empress, and then finally, the Heavenly Emperor, even though he didn't hold much hope in regard to him.
Finally, the two of them reached the steps to the door of the Tower of Wisdom.
Jing Yi looked up at Qiu Ling, wanting him to take the lead.
Qiu Ling looked at him and wasn't quite sure how to proceed. ”Well, let's go in then?”
Jing Yi nodded and continued to hold onto his arm, trying to put on a good expression. So far, most people wouldn't know who he was. Aside from Jing He's family and that God of Justice, there had only been the soldiers and officials at that moment. Nobody else should be aware of his identity. So leaving others with a good first impression would be for the best.
