Junior sister, keep forbear for a while, I almost become invincible as soon!-Chapter 670: Calm Down a Bit
The Son of the Fate Energy, Zhang Ziyu, felt as if he were dreaming. He approached Liu Dayao and whispered, "That chicken? Is it preaching to others?"
Liu Dayao nodded. "Yes, Mr. Zhang, that's right."
The two exchanged a glance, their expressions incredibly vivid.
Just now, a little black dog had been teaching others the Sword Dao, and now... a chicken was instructing others in cultivation seals.
Oh?
Not far away, there was another one, an Eight Treasures Chicken.
It strutted back and forth, holding its head high. When its gaze flicked over the two men, it was filled with disdain and contempt.
Liu Dayao was startled. "Mr. Zhang, that chicken is mocking you."
According to Mr. Zhang's temperament, if someone dared to mock him, he would draw his sword in minutes to teach that fellow a lesson.
But this was Chen Pingping's home.
No! The dogs and chickens here are all very strange. That Eight Treasures Chicken must also have some special ability to mock the Son of the Fate Energy so arrogantly; there has to be a reason for it. Wait, that's not the point. This is Chen Pingping's home, so as a guest, he should be more low-key.
Zhang Ziyu wiped away a bead of cold sweat and asked, "So, what do chickens eat?"
Liu Dayao: "..."
Suddenly, a Saint King behind them exclaimed, "Oh, heavens! Mr. Zhang, look quickly!"
High above, the Divine Body, Wen Qingshan, was demonstrating Void Taoism. He merged with the Void, his figure ebbing and flowing.
The Saint King stared, dumbstruck. "The Divine Body! This is the legendary Void Body!"
Zhang Ziyu raised his head.
"Eh? Over there... there's a Fairy, too!" another Saint King exclaimed.
To their left, a Fairy was cultivating...
Zhang Ziyu's mouth fell slightly open, waves of shock sweeping through his heart. Is this really Chen Pingping's home? That supposedly poor household?
He felt a bit flustered. He was still trying to process the dog and the chicken when a Void Body and a Fairy were added to the mix. And he had only just stepped over the doorstep!
Chen Pingping looked toward Jiang Ni'er. "Ni'er, take them for a tour." With that, he strode away!
Before long, he reached the depths of the Wuji Sect where Yu Changfeng was in seclusion.
Chen Pingping said nothing, his eyes shifted, and he unleashed a Sword Slash.
I @%@&#(%...
Yu Changfeng burst out cursing, "It's a real shame the White Emperor didn't kill you!"
Chen Pingping responded with a smile, "Senior, calm down a moment. I have something to ask you."
"Is this really how you ask for advice?" Yu Changfeng pointed at the thatched cottage and cursed, "Don't think just because you've forged an Emperor Weapon and slain a Demon Emperor that I can't deal with you!"
He was furious. He had just begun his seclusion when this brat woke him.
Chen Pingping's smile faded. He gestured towards the heavens, then asked with a serious expression, "Is there a way to the Ancient Road?"
Hmm? Yu Changfeng's anger instantly extinguished, and he eyed him closely. "What did the White Emperor say?"
Chen Pingping glanced around. After confirming no one was nearby, he recounted the White Emperor's exact words and the scenes he had witnessed on the Ancient Road.
To tell the truth, his emotions had been in turmoil at that time. He had been desperate to rush onto the Ancient Road and sweep through the Ancient City right away. But after calming down, he increasingly felt that this matter was not simple. The Ancient City contained too many terrifying beings; there were definitely more than one at the Emperor Realm. His own Master, however, was far from reaching that level. Even if she knelt and used her ultimate trump card, it might not be enough to stop them. There's a problem here. Secondly, the way Wen Yuqing knelt, so calmly, didn't seem like Master's usual temperament.
Chen Pingping voiced his suspicions one by one.
After hearing them, Yu Changfeng was quite surprised. "You really saw that?"
Chen Pingping nodded.
"A long time ago, there indeed was such a saying," Yu Changfeng said solemnly. "When Wen Yuqing knelt, she awakened the Dynasty Lord Wenliang, who then slew many terrible enemies. But... times have changed. Too much time has passed, and she may not be able to awaken Wenliang now."
"The Dynasty Lord hasn't fallen?"
"Dead. As dead as one can be. What Wen Yuqing probably awakened was just a lingering wisp of will from the mortal world," Yu Changfeng judged. "That lingering will, borrowing Wen Yuqing's body, would undergo a form of rebirth—its consciousness reviving to briefly slay enemies."
"Then?"
"She cannot awaken it a second time. The cost is too great; she would die."
"Based on Senior's judgment, the powerful figures in the Ancient City should also know this, right? So, Master couldn't possibly have stopped them, could she?"
"Yes, that's the logic of it!" Yu Changfeng nodded.
The Ancient City, the Ancient Road... something must have happened. Otherwise, with all the commotion Chen Pingping had caused—forging the Heaven Tao Divine Weapon, slaying the Demon Emperor—it would have been enough to prompt the powerful figures of the Ancient City to take action. He would definitely die, and even the entire Wuji Sect could suffer catastrophe because of this. One only needed to look at what happened to Yu Changfeng himself in the past.
Yu Changfeng sighed. "You, young man, are blessed with good fortune. Someone is holding up the sky for you."
Blessed with good fortune? Perhaps!
Chen Pingping neither confirmed nor denied. "I want to go to the Ancient Road."
Yu Changfeng shook his head. "Your cultivation realm is too low. Setting foot on the Ancient Road would be a death sentence for you. Moreover, as you yourself said, that Wen Yuqing may not be the real one; it could be a fake. Taking a huge step back, even if it *is* her, it could be a ploy. She's very clever."
This was without a doubt. Otherwise, Wen Yuqing could not have survived until now.
"Secondly," Yu Changfeng continued, "there are only two ways to reach the Ancient Road. First, traverse the Void, but the risk is too great. Your Master succeeded because she has countless experiences. Second, fight your way into the depths of the Nine Heavens to step onto the Ancient Road."
"Fine then, I'll fight my way in," Chen Pingping declared.
"Calm down. With your current strength and the Wuji Sect's current stage of development, rashly starting a war with them now is simply not worth it." Yu Changfeng shook his head. "You still have time to grow, as does the Wuji Sect, so don't waste this chance."
Chen Pingping was silent.
Not strong enough, stay calm, there's still time... That sounds easy, but it's very hard to achieve. What kind of strength is needed to face those formidable adversaries? To be able to sweep through the Ancient Road and overthrow the Ancient City? And what does 'being calm' even mean? After leaving the Southern Region, he hadn't uttered a single word about Wen Yuqing's situation. Calm enough, right? And as for having time, how much time? Ten years? Twenty years? Or five hundred years? Or perhaps even longer?
Chen Pingping didn't know. Deep inside, he felt an urgency, wishing he could charge onto the Ancient Road right now, but reason told him it wasn't yet time. Yu Changfeng before him was also advising restraint. Yes! He should calm down, think long-term, rather than impulsively rushing onto the Ancient Road, which could very well backfire.
Chen Pingping raised his head. "I understand."
Huh? Yu Changfeng was startled. He had only said a few words; what could you possibly understand? He still had so much more he wanted to say!
But Chen Pingping simply walked away, leaving behind a confused Yu Changfeng...
However, just seven or eight breaths later, Chen Pingping returned. "By the way, Senior, have you heard of Jiu Yue?"
