Chapter 380: Skill is better than skill.
When Zhang Cheng found Daji, Daji was sitting on a green stone, leisurely enjoying the breeze.
Zhang Cheng sat down next to Daji, hesitated for a moment, and then whispered to Daji: "Jiang Ziya does things by any means necessary. If I have offended you today, please forgive me."
"Also, I want to say sorry to you. I brought you out of the Dream Forest. But I still used you in the end!"
Daji gently waved her hand at Zhang Cheng and said, "Although I have used you, I have also benefited a lot from this trip. I finally remembered who I am."
Zhang Ben originally wanted to test it out, but he didn't expect Daji to be so direct.
Turning her head and smiling sweetly at Zhang Cheng, Daji said, "Now I finally understand what you said to me before. Did you know about my past a long time ago?"
Without waiting for Zhang Cheng to reply, Daji continued, "Of course, you, Jiang Ziya, and Yang Jian should all know about my past, but I am the only one who has been kept in the dark."
"It turns out that I am a puppet of the devil. My purpose in appearing in this world is to do something to overthrow the rule of Chaoge."
"King Zhou gave me life, but I am not grateful to him at all, because I know that the person King Zhou loves is not me, but another Daji, a real half-blood demon."
Zhang Cheng sighed secretly.
About Daji's background story.
Zhang Cheng knows a thing or two.
King Zhou's favorite concubine, Daji, died unexpectedly for some reason.
King Zhou was heartbroken.
After Jiang Ziya learned about this, he used his abilities to create a magic puppet.
This evil puppet is the current Daji.
Jiang Ziya presented Daji to King Zhou.
King Zhou was extremely happy when he saw that Daji looked exactly like his former beloved concubine.
So King Zhou treated Daji as a substitute for his beloved concubine.
After spending a long time together, King Zhou gradually forgot Daji's identity.
He completely treated Daji as his beloved concubine.
As time passed, King Zhou finally could not accept Daji's identity as a puppet of the devil, so he gave his heart to Daji.
After Daji obtained King Zhou's heart, she took control of her own life.
But Daji was not happy.
Upon seeing this, King Zhou sealed Daji's memory in order to make her happy every day.
In short, whether it is Jiang Ziya or King Zhou.
They all treated Daji as a tool.
The former was to use Daji to destroy Chaoge.
The latter regarded Daji as a substitute.
The smile on Daji's face gradually disappeared, replaced by a hint of anger.
"Every time King Zhou said that he would make me the happiest woman, my disgust for him would increase."
"Because I know that King Zhou still regards me as a substitute."
“I just want to live for myself now.”
Having said this, Daji couldn't help sobbing softly.
Seeing this, Zhang Cheng couldn't help but put his arm around Daji's shoulders.
"Daji, you can live for yourself now. When we get the Chaoge treasure, you can take some of the wealth away. With this wealth, you can travel around the King's Continent and do what you want most."
"As for King Zhou, there is a high probability that he will not be able to escape this time. No matter whether it is Jiang Ziya or Yang Jian, they will not let King Zhou go in the end."
After listening to Zhang Cheng's words, Daji nodded slightly and turned her gaze to the distance again.
On the way to the ruins of Chaoge, Xi Shi and A Ke met up with everyone.
When Xi Shi and A Ke learned the approximate whereabouts of the ruins of Chaoge from Qin Feng, Xi Shi's pretty face immediately revealed an expression of "as expected".
"I know that the treasure of Chaoge is hidden in the void."
Hearing Xi Shi's words, Jiang Ziya couldn't help but smile and said, "Little girl, Xu is one of the twelve wonders, and its greatest feature is hiding. Xu is hidden in the void, let alone ordinary people, even gods find it difficult to find it."
Xi Shi was as fearless as a newborn calf and did not consider Jiang Ziya's identity at all.
As soon as Jiang Ziya finished speaking, Xi Shi said, "Even if Xu is good at hiding, he is not without trace! If you observe carefully, you will still find some clues."
Jiang Ziya couldn't help but snorted coldly.
"Then tell me. What clues did you find in the ruins of Chaoge?"
Xi Shi stood with her hands behind her back and talked freely.
"I know Chaoge Ruins very well and remember every corner of it clearly. That's why I found a space in Chaoge Ruins that is a little unnatural."
"To put it simply, this space is a copy of the space next to it."
"When snowflakes fall from the sky, the snowflakes in this replica space are exactly the same as the snowflakes next to it. When a bird flies through this replica space, the bird's flying movements and posture are exactly the same as those in the space next to it."
"So, I have already discovered that there is something wrong with this space. Unfortunately, I don't know much about the ruins. If I knew more about the ruins, I would have found the Chaoge treasure long ago."
After hearing what Xi Shi said, King Zhou couldn't help but snorted coldly.
"What a joke! How can you see through the ruins? I personally hid the Chaoge treasure in the void. I don't know how many people were deceived by this wise decision of mine."
"You little girl, do you think you can defeat the priest's eyes?"
After hearing what King Zhou said, Xi Shi suddenly felt a little dissatisfied.
"My cultivation and strength are definitely not as good as those of the clergy, but when it comes to my talent for finding treasures, no one in the King's Continent can compare to me."
"You are so arrogant! If it were in my time, I would have ordered people to strip you naked and torture you with fire and fire."
"Humph, you are so cruel, no wonder you can't be a hero. No wonder Chaoge was destroyed in your hands."
Seeing that King Zhou still wanted to speak, Zhang Cheng quickly changed the subject.
"Okay, stop arguing, both of you. Xishi, you said you knew where the ruins were. Tell me where it is, and then we can go to the ruins of Chaoge to verify it."
Xi Shi nodded and said loudly to Zhang Cheng: "The place I'm talking about is above the West Square of the Chaoge ruins. If I remember correctly, the West Square should be the place where Chaoge held grand ceremonies in the past."
After hearing Xi Shi's words, King Zhou's eyes widened instantly.
After a while, King Zhou smiled at Xi Shi and said, "Little girl, I underestimated you. I didn't expect that there is someone as observant as you in the King's Continent. If you lived in the era I lived in, I would definitely take you as my concubine."
