Nanyang City became lively again, and immortal cultivators from all walks of life came back again and again, because the Mingyuexin Conference was coming soon, and they all wanted to come back to see it.
It’s just that although Nanyang City is lively this time, it is not as noisy and chaotic as before. Although this time the Mingyue Heart Conference is held publicly, not everyone is qualified to watch it. Those who have returned to Nanyang City are The elites of various sects, as well as ordinary disciples and cultivators from other small sects, are still out there dealing with ghost cultivators.
With Kunlun's indifference, the forces in the world of cultivating immortals are facing a reshuffle. Naturally, those small sects have formed their ranks early. A single word from those large sects can make those cultivators of small sects unable to help themselves.
Luo Cheng lived a comfortable life with Lu Yan, it was quiet and peaceful, and no one came to disturb him. He and Gu Chen hadn't seen each other for a long time, so the two seemed to have endless things to say. In the past ten years, their respective experiences were rich and colorful, and through their respective It’s wonderful to describe it in words.
However, Luo Cheng's experience was far more exciting than Gu Chen's. He walked into the human world, took care of injustices, and then avenged the villagers and killed evil monks. Every incident could be described as earth-shattering.
Nowadays, Luo Cheng no longer carries the burden of revenge on his shoulders. He looks much more relaxed and free. He truly lives for himself. Seeing this, Gu Chen is very pleased.
Lu Yan still has to handle some information from time to time every day, but now there is nothing important every day. It is just trivial matters such as who has returned to Nanyang City and where he lives. However, what makes Gu Chen a little puzzled is how to treat this kind of information. Lu Yan seemed to be happier doing trivial matters.
Putting down the information in his hand, Lu Yan rubbed his eyebrows and said, "That idiot Huangfu Qing is back again."
Upon hearing Huangfu Qing's name, Gu Chen and Luo Cheng became quiet almost at the same time and stopped talking.
Lu Yan did not doubt that he was there, and continued: "Nanyang City is really lively these days, but everyone follows the rules and there are no disputes. But that idiot Huangfuqing doesn't understand this. That kid will definitely cause trouble, and he will cause big troubles." , that old boy Huangfuren has been guarding him all day long, and I don’t know what he is thinking, and he doesn’t know how to discipline him.”
Gu Chen asked: "Where is the Enchantress?"
Lu Yan shook his head and said: "She's not here yet. She has been very active this month. Those ghost cultivators run away when they see her. She is so powerful. If they subdue another tiger demon, they can call her 'tiger'." "
Gu Chen shook his head and did not answer this sentence. He thought for a while and said: "The Enchantress is not in the city, so Huangfu Qing should be more at ease."
Lu Yan Mozhi said profoundly: "Then he must know this."
"The Tian Gu Sect also has an intelligence network, and Yao Ji is the core figure of the younger generation of Yao Sect. It should not be difficult to grasp her whereabouts."
Luo Cheng suddenly interrupted, which made Gu Chen inevitably look at him a few more times, with a hint of worry, because Luo Cheng did know that Huangfu Qing was from the Tiangu Sect.
"Then he has to believe it." Lu Yan showed a look that was either mocking or bitter, "Huangfu Qing is just a fool. He only wants to find the enchantress, and he is brainless. Unless the enchantress runs away in front of him, he won't believe anyone's words, anyway, there is something good to watch now."
As he spoke, Lu Yan looked at Wu Tiao who was hesitant to speak and said, "Kunlun people are still killing ghost cultivators everywhere and have no intention of coming back."
Wu Tiao glanced at Gu Chen and nodded.
These three people seemed to have their own thoughts and concerns, which made Lu Yan find it boring. He stood up and said, "I'll go out and join in the fun."
After Lu Yan left, the remaining three people remained silent and sat in their own places.
Not long after, Wu Tiao also stood up and said, "I'm going out for a walk."
Gu Chen and Luo Cheng were the only two people left in the yard.
After a long time, Gu Chen finally spoke: "Senior Senior Sword God said that the Sword Raising Technique is only passed down to future generations as a legacy and does not bear any hatred."
Luo Cheng smiled, shook his head and said, "Gu Chen, you are thinking too much. I have no intention of revenge. My revenge has been avenged long ago."
"Don't go looking for people from the Tian Gu Sect either." Gu Chen looked serious, "You can't let the Tian Gu Sect... no, you can't let any sect see that your inheritance is the Sword Raising Technique of the Sword God Residence. Only in this way, you can Only in this way can we protect ourselves.”
"How do you think you are protecting yourself? Are you acting like a turtle like this?"
"Luo Cheng..."
"Gu Chen, you don't understand me, and you have no way of understanding me."
"We are friends."
"We are best friends." Luo Cheng's face revealed a trace of emptiness, "It's just that you can never understand my current mood."
Gu Chen looked at Luo Cheng, waiting for him to continue.
"Ten years ago, my meridians were half destroyed. It was you who gave me the Sword Raising Technique, which also gave me hope. My strength improved greatly, and I successfully found my enemy. The enemy who made me despair and fear at the beginning, I can only take revenge." It was just one sword strike, and then, the hatred I had carried for so many years was gone in one fell swoop.”
Luo Cheng gently stroked the Wuyin Sword.
"I am not a cultivator, and I cannot embark on the path of cultivating immortals. As a mortal, it is natural for me to enter the world. It's just that I have advanced too quickly in the art of raising swords. In the mortal world, I no longer have any opponents, so I At first, I pointed my sword at immortal cultivators, ghost cultivators, and monsters, all fell under my sword. As I became stronger and stronger, I became more and more empty. I no longer knew what else I could do, and why I had to go out. Sword, I haven't encountered those more powerful beings yet, and even if I did, would they take me into their eyes?"
Luo Cheng sighed and said: "Gu Chen, I am very confused now because I no longer know which side I should be on. In the mortal world, I am too powerful to compete with immortal cultivators, so they will not regard me as An ordinary person, but in the world of immortal cultivators, I am still a mortal body after all. In their eyes, no matter how powerful I am, I am still a weak ant. With this level of understanding, I cannot become their kind. .”
Luo Cheng looked at Gu Chen, with a rare trace of sadness and loneliness on his face.
"I am different from you. My strength is always improving by leaps and bounds, because the Sword Raising Art is indeed powerful, but I am still a mortal. The limitation of life span means that I can never be compared with the cultivators of immortals. A mere hundred years is too short. I have reached the top in the world of mortals and am regarded as an alien, but I am not looked down upon in the world of immortal cultivators. I don’t know where I should go, and living such a life is too boring, and I am not willing to accept it. That’s how it ends.”
Gu Chen shook his head and said: "When the Sword God Residence was strong, even Kunlun had to pay three respects. You are still young now, and there is still a long way to go. Moreover, the catastrophe has already appeared in the world. Are you still afraid that there will be no place for you to be useful? "
"Not enough." Luo Cheng shook his head suddenly, "By chance, I got the Sword Raising Technique from you. Later I discovered that the Sword Raising Technique fit too well with myself. Ten years have made me go too far. There is no way to go back. Immortal cultivators of the same generation as me are now far from my opponents, but the Tiangu sect happens to be my natural enemy. Facing such a natural enemy, not only me, but Wuyin Sword is also secretly Excited."
Luo Cheng touched the Wuyin Sword and saw the Wuyin Sword trembling slightly, as if responding to his mood.
"No matter how strong the mortals are, they are still mortal bodies after all. They will get sick and be afraid of poisons. These are the Tiangu Sect's best methods. Facing them, I can feel the sense of crisis at any time. Only with this sense of crisis can I I feel like I'm still alive. I don't want to take revenge for Jian Shen Ju. I just feel that I need to do something for Jian Shen Ju. But in fact, it's more for myself. I can't stop here. .”
Gu Chen fell silent. He no longer knew what to say. Luo Cheng had already said this, what else could he say?
"I know the seriousness, and I will not act recklessly because of impulse. In the current catastrophe, I will not just go and attack the Tiangu Sect. However, if there is a chance, I will not let it go. If necessary, I want the sword to The name of Divine Residence once again resounds throughout the entire world of cultivating immortals.”
A surge of Lingtian sword intent rose into the sky from Luo Cheng, full of unyielding and unwillingness.
