Chen Xuan raised his head and saw Zhang Huaili floating above his head.
On the other side, Yue Chen fell to the ground with a plop.
His face was pale, and it took him a while to realize that his clothes were already wet with his cold sweat.
"Fine."
Chen Xuan nodded, "Since Dean Zhang has asked for mercy, how can I not give you face?"
After speaking, Chen Xuan looked at Yue Chen again, "It's not bad, but it's a pity that it was me who met him."
Yue Chen's expression kept changing.
He is the proud man of heaven!
Have you ever been seen so clearly?
He didn't know where the strength came from, and stood up suddenly, glaring at Chen Xuan, "Chen Xuan! What are you so arrogant about? You are just a waste body now, and you can only cultivate to the Xuan level in this life! "
"Do you think you can always be like this? Let me tell you, in a hundred years, I will leave you far behind!"
"I can become the dean of the Heaven-Swallowing Sword Academy in the future, but you will always be able to crawl in the mire!"
As soon as these words came out, Zhang Huaili also changed his expression.
He had already rescued Yue Chen from Chen Xuan's hands.
But Yue Chen actually dared to provoke Chen Xuan!
really.
Zhang Huaili saw a flash of cold light in Chen Xuan's eyes.
He was about to stop him.
Buzz!
An inexplicable force instantly restrained Zhang Huaili.
Zhang Huaili's body shook slightly, but it was already too late.
Uh-huh!
I saw a cold light sweeping towards Yue Chen.
Yue Chen's expression changed drastically.
Unexpectedly, Chen Xuan would dare to commit murder with Zhang Huaili here.
laugh!
Along with the blood flying, an arm flew high and fell to the ground again.
"ah!!"
A shrill scream sounded.
Yue Chen covered his broken arm with his hand and stared at Chen Xuan.
"Your future realm may be higher than mine, but in the past hundred years, I can kill you at any time."
Chen Xuan said indifferently.
Yue Chen's face turned pale and he hugged his severed arm, although his heart was full of anger and unwillingness.
But he didn't dare to say another word.
Chen Xuan looked away, and then said to everyone present: "Is there anyone else who wants to challenge me?"
"One hundred Xuanjing once."
Even the No. 1 seed in the Tiantian Sword Academy was defeated by Chen Xuan. How could anyone dare to cause trouble to Chen Xuan?
Everyone lowered their heads, not daring to look at Chen Xuan.
Chen Xuan shook his head, "It's boring."
He flew up and flew in the direction of Xiaoyao City.
He knows.
With his behavior today, I am afraid that the three major sword academies will not dare to cause trouble for him again in a short period of time.
Unless some elders are shameless and do not hesitate to bully the young and attack him.
soon.
Chen Xuan has disappeared without a trace.
Zhang Huaili also said calmly, "Okay, I've seen it. Now you all know what it means to have someone outside."
"Let's all disperse."
After hearing Zhang Huaili's words, everyone returned to their respective sword courtyards.
However, today, Chen Xuan became famous in one battle, which has planted unrivaled seeds in the hearts of these people.
Wait until all the disciples and elders leave.
The deans of the other two sword academies also appeared.
Zhang Huaili did not speak to the two deans, but raised his head, "How long do you plan to hide?"
The words have not yet finished.
A figure slowly floated down from the top of the cloud.
It was Tao Yuansheng.
"What?"
Tao Yuansheng took out his ears, with a bright smile on his face, "Your disciple can't compare to my disciple, so you want to cause trouble for his master?"
"I can tell you that every injustice has its own owner, and whoever committed the crime will be punished."
The three deans looked helpless.
"Chen Xuan... I'll leave it to you to take care of."
Zhang Huaili said softly.
When Tao Yuansheng heard this, he immediately curled his lips and said, "My disciples, I won't bother you anymore."
"Don't you know Chen Xuan's physique?"
The dean of Haoran Sword Academy frowned, "The Holy Saint Steps on the Celestial Body, how can you let him grow up just because you are alone?"
"Why not?"
Tao Yuansheng sneered, "Don't look at our masters and disciples with your narrow eyes. Methods are thought out, not waiting for."
"Instead of preaching to me here, you might as well think about how you treat Chen Xuan."
"How ridiculous!"
Before he finished speaking, Tao Yuansheng flew away and disappeared in the blink of an eye.
The three deans looked at each other.
Unexpectedly, they were scolded by Tao Yuansheng.
the other side.
On top of the mountain.
Chen Xuan sat on a tree branch, Yue Chen's words still echoing in his mind.
Doesn't this reveal Chen Xuan's thoughts?
The Holy One steps on the celestial body!
The divine body from five million years ago.
Today's waste body.
After cultivating to the Xuanyi realm, if you want to go further, the amount of heavenly materials and earthly treasures you need to spend will be a terrifying astronomical figure.
Although Chen Xuan now has a total of 600,000 mysterious crystals in his hands.
But Chen Xuan didn't think that so many mysterious crystals could support his cultivation for how long.
at this time.
Tao Yuansheng flew in from a distance.
With a bright smile on his face, he said to Chen Xuan: "Disciple, you really show off to me this time!"
As soon as Chen Xuan saw Tao Yuansheng, he became angry.
This old man!
He left himself behind three times!
He even appeared in front of him shamelessly!
"With over 600,000 Xuanjing, my disciple, how are you going to honor your master?"
Tao Yuansheng walked to Chen Xuan's side with a smile and put his arm around Chen Xuan's shoulders. "Being a teacher doesn't require much. Once you achieve something, it's enough."
Chen Xuan glanced at Tao Yuansheng and was speechless by Tao Yuansheng's shamelessness.
"Oh, you kid, you can't help but be funny."
Tao Yuansheng sighed, "How can I not know, as a teacher, that you are planning for the future?"
"But have you ever thought about it? Because of your spiritual fetus, your cultivation level cannot be improved at all. Even if you get more Xuan Crystals, what's the use?"
"You don't need to tell me again."
Chen Xuan spoke angrily.
Tao Yuansheng was not angry because of Chen Xuan's attitude.
Instead, he smiled mischievously and said, "Since you call me master, I can't treat you badly!"
As soon as these words came out, Chen Xuan's eyes suddenly lit up.
Could it be that Tao Yuansheng has a solution?
"Hum hum."
Tao Yuansheng hummed proudly, "Master has found a solution to your spiritual fetus problem."
"Give me some time, I will definitely help you recover!"
"At that time, you boy, try your best to make me Xiaoyao City famous all over the world!"
Chen Xuan glanced at Tao Yuansheng with a strange expression.
He really doubted whether Tao Yuansheng's words were true or false.
"What's that look in your face?"
Tao Yuansheng glanced at Chen Xuan very dissatisfied, "Don't you believe what I said?"
Chen Xuan said nothing.
But the meaning has been expressed very clearly.
"You kid..."
Tao Yuansheng shook his head helplessly.
"Master."
Chen Xuan suddenly said, "You must have been present when I fought with the disciples of the three major sword academies before."
"of course."
Tao Yuansheng nodded, "How can I let my disciples suffer? If they dare to rely on their old age, I will beat them to death!"
"What grudges do you have with the Three Great Sword Academy?"
Chen Xuan asked.
This is a question that Chen Xuan has wanted to ask for a long time.
Tao Yuansheng must have connections with the three major sword academies!
Tao Yuansheng was stunned.
He didn't want to say it, but after seeing Chen Xuan's curious eyes, he finally said softly: "Oh, it's nothing actually. Back then, I was thinking about the swordsmanship in the world, and it will never change from its sect. Incorrect."
"Then what?"
"Then I took on three identities and stayed in the three major sword academies for ten years."
Tao Yuansheng smiled sheepishly, "Then the Dongchuang incident happened, and I was driven away."
Chen Xuan: "..."
He originally thought he was bold enough.
But he didn't expect that his cheap master was not bad at all.
He used three identities to stay in the three major sword academies for ten years each.
The three major sword academies didn’t even notice it!
"It's not that much of a trick."
A proud expression suddenly appeared on Tao Yuansheng's face, "Every time I stay for ten years and I have learned almost everything I need to learn, I find an excuse to fake my death and escape."
"I was considered a young talent back then, and I had a good personal relationship with Zhang Huaili and the others. When I died, they were extremely sad every time..."
Chen Xuan blinked.
That is to say...
Tao Yuansheng faked his death three times in total.
Zhang Huaili and the other three also held three funerals for Tao Yuansheng!
If he were Zhang Huaili, he would probably slap Tao Yuansheng to death when he knew the truth!
"Only this?"
Chen Xuan asked.
Tao Yuansheng's eyes rolled around, "That's all."
Nonsense!
Chen Xuan didn't believe Tao Yuansheng's lies at all.
He believes it.
Tao Yuansheng must have something to hide.
But since Tao Yuansheng didn't want to say anything, he couldn't say anything more.
"Now that you're asking."
Tao Yuansheng suddenly spoke and changed the subject: "Master, I will teach you a good lesson today."
"Integrating the masters of the three major sword academies, I will teach you the sword intention that I have learned today!"
As soon as these words came out, Chen Xuan's eyes suddenly lit up.
Tao Yuansheng was a brother-in-law with Zhang Huaili and other three deans at that time.
How could the sword intent he created be a simple thing?
I saw Tao Yuansheng curling his fingers, and suddenly a branch flew into Tao Yuansheng's hand.
This moment.
Tao Yuansheng's cynicism disappeared.
Just standing there gave him a sharp look.
Chen Xuan couldn't help but be a little fascinated.
It looks like...
This cheap master like me is really no ordinary person!
Immediately afterwards.
Boom buzz!
I saw Tao Yuansheng holding the branch and sweeping it casually.
In an instant.
The wind howled.
A brilliant sword energy swept across.
In that sword energy.
Chen Xuan unexpectedly found that he couldn't understand the sword energy.
He could even see his understanding of the art of swordsmanship from the sword energy.
But when he looked carefully, he felt that this was not the case.
finally.
The sword energy fell.
Chen Xuan's expression was a little dull.
Only a distance is seen.
A crack that stretched for at least a thousand feet appeared on the originally flat ground.
The power of a sword is so terrifying!
"how?"
Tao Yuansheng said proudly to Chen Xuan.
"Very strong!"
Chen Xuan's answer was very sincere.
"What did you realize from my sword?"
Tao Yuansheng asked.
"All in one pot!"
Chen Xuan said without hesitation.
Tao Yuansheng: "..."
He didn't expect that.
Chen Xuan, who had spent his whole life understanding the sword intention, actually gave such an evaluation!
Tao Yuansheng was so angry that he blew his beard and glared, "You kid, you really don't understand anything. I'm just playing the piano to a cow!"
"But that's the truth."
Chen Xuan acted a little more sincerely, "There are countless sword intentions in the world, and not everyone is suitable for one kind of sword intention. Everyone has their own way of living, and sword intentions are also all kinds of strange. In my opinion, your sword intention is just messy and gaudy." "
"Okay, okay..."
Tao Yuansheng waved his hands repeatedly, "Stop talking, I don't want to talk to you anymore."
Chen Xuan also obediently shut his mouth and stopped talking.
"You can stay here by yourself for the next few days."
Tao Yuansheng said.
Chen Xuan looked at Tao Yuansheng in surprise, "Are you going to run away again?"
"Can you, kid, say something nice?"
Tao Yuansheng looked at Chen Xuan dissatisfied, "Shouldn't I go out and collect things that can help you recover for a little white-eyed wolf like you? Do you want to stay at the eighth level of Shattering Sky for the rest of your life?"
"You don't think it's embarrassing, but I do. How can I, Tao Yuansheng's founding disciple, stretch his hips like this?"
Although Tao Yuansheng's words didn't sound good.
But Chen Xuan still heard concern from Tao Yuansheng's mouth.
"Thank you, Master."
Chen Xuan bowed his hand to Tao Yuansheng very sincerely.
"snort!"
Tao Yuansheng snorted coldly, and then his body disappeared without a trace.
Chen Xuan had no choice but to stay here alone, waiting for Tao Yuansheng's return.
After Chen Xuan had made such a fuss in the Three Great Sword Academy.
During this time, he did get some long-lost peace.
No one came to trouble him at all.
Chen Xuan was also happy, just as he was trying various methods to restore his spiritual fetus.
Unfortunately.
His spiritual fetus seemed to be really dead and could not be recovered at all.
This day.
Chen Xuan is still practicing.
Suddenly he opened his eyes suddenly and looked into the distance.
Just see it over there.
Several figures are flying quickly.
Everyone's body is filled with an extremely terrifying aura.
Chen Xuan frowned.
these people……
You’re not here to cause trouble for yourself, are you?
soon.
Those people have already arrived above the soil bag.
They lowered their heads, their majestic mental power roaring out, but they did not find the person they were looking for.
Immediately afterwards.
The eyes of those people fell on Chen Xuan, "That boy, do you know Tao Yuansheng?"
Listening to that extremely rude voice, Chen Xuan shook his head expressionlessly, "I don't know him."
"What are you doing here?"
"You're practicing, can't you tell?"
Chen Xuan asked angrily.
"You little bastard, you have no rules!"
One person sneered and flicked his finger at Chen Xuan.
Chen Xuan immediately sensed the danger.
He quickly hid aside.
The next moment.
Bang!
A bottomless black hole appeared on the ground where Chen Xuan was standing just now!
Chen Xuan's eyes turned cold.
If he hadn't dodged in time just now, I'm afraid this blow could have killed half of his life!
"Um?"
Those people looked at Chen Xuan in great surprise, obviously not expecting that Chen Xuan could still avoid it!
"It's quite capable."
The person who took action nodded slowly, not feeling at all that there was anything wrong with his behavior just now.
"Who are you?"
Chen Xuan asked in a deep voice.
These people act unscrupulously and are a nuisance!
"us?"
Another person sneered, "We are here to find someone. You said you don't know Tao Yuansheng, but that's not the case."
"That's right."
Seeing that these people would not let him go regardless of whether they told him or not, Chen Xuan nodded, "I am his disciple."
"Ah……"
The man sneered, "I didn't expect that old guy Tao Yuansheng, there would be people willing to become his teacher."
"It's okay, I didn't find him, but if I capture you, I won't believe that he didn't find you."
As he spoke, he already stretched out his palm towards Chen Xuan.
Chen Xuan suddenly felt his body tense.
A force of pressure suppressed him, unable to move.
Chen Xuan's face was extremely ugly.
In the Northern Territory, Southern Continent, and Eastern Frontier, there are very few people who can suppress themselves with just their breath.
But when you come to Middle-earth, you can see them everywhere!
Just when that big hand was about to snatch Chen Xuan away.
A plain voice suddenly sounded, "Fellow Taoist, you have crossed the line."
As soon as these words came out, the big hand was shaken away.
Immediately afterwards, Chen Xuan saw Zhang Huaili arriving.
"The dean of the Tiantian Sword Academy?"
The faces of those people also became embarrassed.
They had already found out.
This so-called Xiaoyao City has nothing to do with the three major sword academies.
But he didn't expect that just when they were about to attack Chen Xuan, the deans of the three major sword academies arrived.
"Tao Yuansheng has a grudge against you. You just go after him. Why do you need to do anything to this little guy?"
Zhang Huaili said calmly, "There is always a wrongdoer and a debtor. You can just go to the rightful owner. Why bother with him?"
"Dean Zhang, we have no intention of starting a war with you, but we have a blood feud with Tao Yuansheng, so you'd better not take action."
Those few people refused to give in and actually confronted Zhang Huaili!
"This little guy is old to me."
Zhang Huaili just raised his hand and pointed at Chen Xuan and said.
For a while.
Everyone's eyes fell on Chen Xuan.
The eighth level of Shattering Heaven?
He was actually able to get the dean of the Tiantian Sword Academy to protect him?
Who is this guy?
"What if we don't?"
An old man with a sinister appearance said in a deep voice: "In order to lure out Tao Yuansheng, he must come with us!"
Chen Xuan frowned slightly.
These people already know Zhang Huaili's identity.
How dare you confront him.
What are the identities of these people?
"Then we have no choice but to start a war."
Zhang Huaili's attitude was also very firm.
"That's fine."
The old man nodded, "In that case, let's see if the three famous sword academies in the world are as tyrannical as the rumors say!"
For a moment.
Several people have already broken out into terrifying battles.
Even though there was only one Zhang Huaili, he still did not fall behind when facing these people.
There was only one young man left on the spot, looking at Chen Xuan with a sneer.
"What, you want to sign too?"
Chen Xuan grinned.
"I think so too!"
The young man flew towards Chen Xuan without hesitation.
A sword as black as ink in his hand reflected crystal clear light under the sunlight.
"Well done!"
Chen Xuan shouted loudly, took out the Holy Dragon Sword, and fought with the young man.
Unfortunately.
Although this young man has a strong momentum.
But his strength was even much worse than that of Yue Chen a few days ago.
In just a few rounds, he was already at a disadvantage.
Chen Xuan's face was expressionless, and his attacks were extremely ruthless.
He has never been kind to women.
Since it is an enemy.
Then go all out!
This is Chen Xuan’s creed!
finally.
The young man was already a little overwhelmed.
With a panic look on his face, he resisted Chen Xuan's offensive with difficulty, and at the same time shouted loudly: "Uncle Master, save me!"
The words have not yet finished.
A majestic force swept over.
Chen Xuanru was hit hard, his chest instantly sunk, and his body flew backwards.
Just for a moment.
Chen Xuan had more than a dozen broken ribs!
A man appeared beside the young man.
The young man let out a long breath and stared at Chen Xuan, "How dare you hurt me! And you want to kill me! I'll kill you!"
He roared and rushed towards Chen Xuan.
The man was looking at Chen Xuan calmly.
But when he saw the cold light flashing in Chen Xuan's eyes, he immediately reacted, "Stop!"
Unfortunately it's too late!
The moment the young man rushed to Chen Xuan.
A flash of cold light lit up the young man's eyes.
A sword energy as bright as the sun roared out as if connecting the heaven and the earth.
The young man was so frightened that he froze in place and even forgot to dodge.
laugh!
Blood is flying!
The terrifying sword energy completely destroyed the young man's body!
"ah!!"
His spiritual fetus whizzed upwards, trying to escape.
Chen Xuan stretched out his hand and grabbed the spirit fetus in his hand.
"Let me go! If you dare to hurt me, my master and uncle will never let you go!"
The spirit fetus was still screaming.
"Let him go."
The man also spoke indifferently, with anxiety surging deep in his eyes.
"Why?"
Chen Xuan asked back, "It's reasonable that he wanted to kill me and was killed instead."
Before he finished speaking, Chen Xuan crushed the spirit fetus in his hand without any hesitation.
"Baby! How dare you do this!!"
The man was furious.
Endless coercion burst out from him, covering Chen Xuan.
Chen Xuan felt that all the bones in his body were creaking.
It seemed that Chen Xuan would be suppressed into a ball of blood mist in an instant.
at this time.
A sword fell from the sky.
The man's pressure was shaken away.
Chen Xuan's body lightened and he looked above his head.
Tao Yuansheng, who had been away for several days, appeared.
He was dusty, but his eyes were filled with cold murderous intent, "You want to kill my disciple? I think you are looking for death!"
He rushed towards the man without hesitation.
Chen Xuan breathed a sigh of relief, knowing that he was saved.
Above the sky.
There were constant sounds of dense explosions.
The battle between those monks who far surpassed the Xuanyi realm made Chen Xuan feel his eyes stinging so much just after watching them for a while, as if his eyeballs were going to explode.
A full hour.
Someone else came from afar.
"Do you think people from my Tianyi Sect are easy to bully?"
There was a sneer.
A dozen more people joined the battlefield.
This time.
Even Zhang Huaili and Tao Yuansheng found it a bit difficult.
There are even people who are eyeing Chen Xuan on the top of the mountain and want to get rid of Chen Xuan.
Tao Yuansheng also noticed this.
He frowned, ignoring the offensive behind him, and quickly landed next to Chen Xuan, helping Chen Xuan block the fatal attacks.
"Master..."
Just as Chen Xuan spoke, he was interrupted by Tao Yuansheng, "No, this place is too dangerous. I need to send you away."
deliver?
Chen Xuan was stunned.
How to send it?
Tao Yuansheng's fingers were seen shining brightly, and then he pressed directly on Chen Xuan's eyebrows.
Chen Xuan's expression was dull for a moment.
just now.
Tao Yuansheng stuffed a coordinate into his head.
"where to!"
Tao Yuansheng roared.
Then, he bit his finger and squeezed out a drop of blood.
The essence and blood condensed and did not disperse, instantly surrounding Chen Xuan.
Then, Chen Xuan quickly flew towards the distance at an incredible speed.
"snort!"
Those people looked at Tao Yuansheng with a sneer, "Send your disciple away? What a deep friendship, but it doesn't matter, we are here for you, as long as you don't leave."
The war resumes.
After all, Tao Yuansheng's level is still inferior to Zhang Huaili.
Zhang Huaili fought against more than a dozen people by himself, but Tao Yuansheng couldn't bear it anymore when faced with three opponents.
"Old Zhang! Let's go!"
Tao Yuansheng said loudly to Zhang Huaili.
Although Zhang Huaili heard Tao Yuansheng's words, he ignored them.
Another half hour passed.
The other two deans finally arrived!
"Why are you here too?"
Tao Yuansheng asked loudly.
The two deans didn't even look at Tao Yuansheng and directly joined the battlefield.
With the addition of the two deans, Tao Yuansheng's pressure dropped dramatically.
On the other hand, the people of Tianyi Sect were retreating steadily under the offensive of the three deans.
Although there have been no casualties yet, they are all unable to hold on.
"snort!"
An old man in black robe snorted coldly, "Everyone in the world says that the three major sword academies are connected by the same spirit. When I saw them today, it was indeed the case."
"You can protect Tao Yuansheng for a while, but I don't believe you can protect him!"
"Walk!"
Give an order.
Everyone evacuated quickly.
Their courage was also broken.
Facing the three most powerful deans.
Only by leaving can they have a chance of survival.
Tao Yuansheng was covered in blood, panting like an ox, and looked at those who escaped with a sneer, "Come back! Aren't you going to kill me?"
"Why are they all running away with their tails between their legs now?"
"Talk less."
Zhang Huaili glanced at Tao Yuansheng helplessly, "I'm so injured, but I don't forget to scream."
Tao Yuansheng snorted and said nothing.
"Where's Chen Xuan?"
The other two deans descended and looked at Tao Yuansheng.
"I sent him away."
"Sent away? Sent to where?"
Dean Haoran Sword Academy frowned, "Don't you know that the Wen family has been keeping an eye on Chen Xuan? If the Wen family discovers it, Chen Xuan will inevitably die!"
"Don't worry, I'm not stupid."
Tao Yuansheng said angrily: "I sent him to a very safe place."
Zhang Huaili was stunned for a moment, and then seemed to think of something.
He looked at Tao Yuansheng, "Did you send him to that place?"
"That's right."
Tao Yuansheng nodded, "That's where his opportunity lies."
When he said this, Tao Yuansheng's eyes flashed with sadness.
However, Tao Yuansheng's expression was not seen by the three deans.
Zhang Huaili hummed and said nothing.
…
Chen Xuan's whole body was wrapped in blood and he flew for three days and three nights.
finally.
The bloody light shattered, and Chen Xuan finally stopped.
"Where is this place?"
Chen Xuan looked confused.
Immediately afterwards, he heard the sound of waves crashing on the shore.
Chen Xuan's body stiffened.
He looked in the direction of the sound and saw a vast ocean.
Chen Xuan: "..."
This is for him...
Sent to the edge of Middle-earth?
To know.
Middle-earth is huge.
Even if Demon King Peng took them flying, it took a long time to send him to the jurisdiction of the three major sword academies.
If flying on his own.
I'm afraid not a few months.
He can't go back to the Three Great Sword Academy.
"Isn't this just a trick to trick me?"
Chen Xuan muttered, "This is China, a place I'm not familiar with... did you send this to me?"
soon.
Chen Xuan put away his thoughts and landed on the ground.
He was thinking about the memories that Tao Yuansheng stuffed into his mind before leaving Xiaoyao City.
It is a city.
A very big city.
Tao Yuansheng only asked him to become the city lord there. As for the rest, Tao Yuansheng did not explain what he wanted him to do.
"But where is that city..."
Chen Xuan was talking, and then he saw a huge city in the distance.
In the dark.
The city was like a giant beast, opening its mouth wide to devour everyone.
"What a coincidence?"
Chen Xuan murmured.
It seemed that Tao Yuansheng sent him here deliberately.
He looked at the city and then flew towards it.
The city was very silent.
Looking around, it was pitch black with only a few lights.
This made Chen Xuan very surprised.
Why are there only so few families in such a big city?
soon.
Chen Xuan came to the city gate.
He looked up and saw that the writing on the city gate was blurred and difficult to read.
And there was no one guarding the city gate.
Chen Xuan walked in easily.
As soon as he entered the city, Chen Xuan felt an uncomfortable feeling enveloped his whole body.
However, apart from being uncomfortable, Chen Xuan did not feel any other discomfort.
After walking a few steps, Chen Xuan's head felt slightly empty.
Only one voice echoed in Chen Xuan's ears.
"I am ashamed of heaven and earth..."
"I am a sinner through the ages..."
"My life is just a joke..."
"Even death can't wash away my sins..."
Chen Xuan had heard the same words countless times.
The Forbidden Emperor of Sin!
Chen Xuan blinked.
Why...
Will he hear the voice of the Forbidden Emperor of Sin in this city?
Or……
Is this city related to the Forbidden Emperor Sintian?
Chen Xuan turned around and looked at a house next to him.
The house was dark and the door was closed.
Chen Xuan took a deep breath and finally walked towards it.
He stretched out his hand and pushed gently, and the door was pushed open by him.
Even though the room was pitch dark, Chen Xuan could still clearly see everything in the room.
He saw a house.
At the table.
A woman was holding a bowl in her hand and something on her chopsticks, about to feed the child next to her.
On the bed, an honest-looking man watched all this with a smile on his face.
Yet all this.
Everything is frozen in this moment.
Yes.
This is a family of three.
Not a living person.
Rather, it is like a stone sculpture, frozen here forever.
Chen Xuan frowned.
Don't know what all this is about.
He always felt that these stone carvings were not real stone carvings.
He slowly exited the house and closed the door, as if he didn't want to disturb the family of three.
Next, Chen Xuan walked a few more rooms.
Inside those houses, without exception, are all kinds of stone carvings.
There are old couples and young couples.
There are also single men and women.
All sentient beings have all kinds of things.
The more Chen Xuan looked at it, the more creepy he felt.
This city is so weird!
Even though they were all stone sculptures, he had a feeling that these people would come alive one day.
soon.
Chen Xuan has arrived in the whole city, and there is only one of the few houses with lights on.
He stood at the door and hesitated for a long time, but finally stepped forward.
This time, he did not open the door directly, but gently knocked on the old and broken door.
Bang bang bang...
The dull sound was particularly harsh in this city.
However, after Chen Xuan knocked on the door, he didn't hear any sound.
There was confusion on his face, and he was thinking whether these houses with lights on were also stone sculptures?
at this time.
Chen Xuan finally heard a very slow moving sound.
Someone is coming here!
Chen Xuan waited patiently.
After a while.
The door finally opens.
The door was opened by an old man.
He was in tatters, and he didn't know how long he had been wearing it.
One of his trouser legs was empty.
Even one of his eyes was gone, leaving only a very deep scar.
"Young man, what can I do for you?"
The old man spoke, his voice hoarse, like a broken bellows.
"Old man, I came here for the first time and wanted to stay overnight, but I found many houses empty. I am causing trouble late at night. I hope you can forgive me."
Chen Xuan said softly.
The old man nodded, "Since you're here, you're a guest. Come in."
Chen Xuan followed the old man into the room.
The room is very simple.
An earthen bed.
a table.
a chair.
Nothing else.
"Old man, why are there so few people in this city?"
Chen Xuan asked casually.
"Dead, all dead."
The old man spoke softly, "How did you come here?"
"My master asked me to come."
Chen Xuan did not feel the slightest malice from the old man, and directly stated his purpose of coming, "He said he wanted me to come here to serve as the city lord."
"City Lord?"
I don’t know if it’s Chen Xuan’s misunderstanding.
Chen Xuan seemed to see a deep light flashing in the old man's one eye.
"Yes."
Chen Xuan nodded, "I don't know what my master wanted to do, and then he sent me here."
"Here... there has been no city lord for a long time..."
The old man said softly: "I don't know if you are qualified to be the city lord here."
Another moment passed.
Suddenly there was the sound of footsteps outside. 33
Chen Xuan suddenly narrowed his eyes and looked towards the door.
The old man was very calm, "Don't worry, they are all my old friends. It must be that new people have finally arrived in this city, and they all want to come and have a look."
Chen Xuan nodded, but did not let down his guard.
Not long after.
The door was pushed open directly.
Immediately afterwards, Chen Xuan saw a dozen people filing in.
These dozen or so people all looked old and decrepit.
Some had broken arms, some were blind.
There was also an old woman with all her teeth missing, her waist stooped, and she was not even half as tall as Chen Xuan.
"See you old people."
Chen Xuan stood up and saluted respectfully to those in front of him.
Although none of these people have any aura around them, they are just a group of ordinary people.
But there is something strange about this city.
Moreover, all the people living in the city looked like this, so he couldn't help but treat them with caution.
"What a polite young man."
The old woman stepped forward and tried to pat Chen Xuan's shoulder, but failed. In the end, she could only pat Chen Xuan's arm.
"Young man, why are you here alone?"
Another old man asked aloud.
"This young man said that his master asked him to come here as the city lord, hahaha..."
The owner of the house laughed.
But his laughter was hoarse and sounded particularly unpleasant.
And after the owner of the house laughed, laughter actually came from outside.
That was not laughter, but a braying donkey.
"Old Ma, why did you bring your lame donkey here?"
The owner of the house looked at an old man.
The old man was the only healthy person present besides Chen Xuan.
He chuckled and scratched his head, "Now it's just me and my old donkey who depend on each other. Of course, wherever I go, it will follow."
Chen Xuan also laughed.
Don't know why.
He actually felt very relaxed when getting along with these people.
It was as if they were old friends gathering together for many years.
"Young man."
Lao Ma looked at Chen Xuan, "You said you wanted to be the city lord here, is that true?"
Chen Xuan nodded immediately, "My master asked me to come. I don't know what he wants to do, but since he has spoken, I can only agree."
"Okay, okay..."
Lao Ma chuckled and nodded, "How many years has it been? This city finally has a new city lord. This is a good start! It means that it won't be long before our city will be full of vitality again. Got it!"
When Chen Xuan saw all the old people in high spirits, he promptly asked a question in his mind, "Old people, what is the name of this city? When I was at the city gate, I found that the writing on it was all messed up."
As soon as these words came out, Chen Xuan found that everyone's expressions became a little weird.
After a while, the owner of the house said softly: "Young man, this city lost its name many years ago."
"Since you want to be the city lord, then it's up to you to choose the name of this city."
Chen Xuan immediately waved his hands, "Old people, please don't do this."
"How virtuous and capable is this boy that he can actually name this city?"
"What's more, it's still uncertain whether I can still be the city lord here."
"Young man, don't underestimate yourself."
The old woman grinned and said, "All the people in the city are here, and we all support you as the city lord, then you will be the city lord."
"Why are you so polite?"
When Chen Xuan heard this, his brows furrowed slightly.
It's so weird here!
Whether it's this city or these people.
It all gave him a very strange feeling!
Some people died, but not completely...
