You're using me, and I'm using you too.
Li Taixuan wanted to retort upon hearing Chu Xinghe's words.
But the facts were right before his eyes.
If not for the help of the System, he wouldn't even have reached the God King Realm by now.
Yet the guy before him possessed a Space Saint Body; if he could take him as a disciple, it would be a tremendous boost for him.
He was unwilling to give up this opportunity.
He suddenly thought of a problem.
Originally, Wen Rushui wanted to use this child to threaten him.
Now, she wanted to kill him outright.
It seemed that because he sold Wen Rushui to a Brothel for one tael of silver, she was now in a berserk state.
He could still withstand a few more of Wen Rushui's attacks.
But now this kid thought Wen Rushui was coming after him.
And that it was because of him that this child was being targeted by Wen Rushui.
This kid's brain was sometimes sharp, sometimes not so sharp.
He was a bit hard to fool.
It seemed he would have to use another method.
"Since you don't believe me, I will leave first."
Li Taixuan had no good way to stay for the time being.
Chu Xinghe took a deep breath.
"Forget it. Although I was targeted because of you, you also saved my life. It's late, so go to my place and stay for the night, then you can leave tomorrow."
Chu Xinghe walked ahead after finishing his sentence.
Li Taixuan's lips curled upward.
This guy was also a kind-hearted person.
The two of them did not speak the entire way.
Both had their own thoughts.
Long Yi, who had already made arrangements in advance, was also stunned upon hearing the message sent by Chu Xinghe.
He had sold Wen Rushui for one tael of silver.
Now he was telling them to run far away.
Chu Xinghe said someone was protecting him, so he wouldn't be in danger.
Long Yi led his eight brothers away.
The following matters would be left to their master for the time being.
Since the master hadn't made a move yet, he must have other plans.
They only needed to follow the arrangements.
Chu Xinghe was quite satisfied looking at the small, dilapidated house that Long Yi had prepared.
Li Taixuan looked it up and down; it was just an ordinary room.
There were even fish scales in the small courtyard.
There were clothes drying next to the well in the courtyard.
"There is another room over there; you can stay there for now, and leave tomorrow."
Li Taixuan nodded and turned back into his room.
He took out a voice transmission jade.
"Back then, you two betrayed me at the Tianxuan Holy Land. This time, I am giving you both a chance. I need you to do something. Once completed, I will consider taking you back under my tutelage."
When he first took in Jiang Wuwei and Ye Pingfan, he had given them life-saving means.
He hadn't expected that they would be able to survive that battle using those means.
Later, the two of them sent him a voice transmission to explain.
After he investigated, the resentment in his heart gradually dissipated.
Putting himself in their shoes, even he couldn't have made a better choice.
The two of them and this guy were of the same age, so they should have common topics.
Chu Xinghe returned to his room, not yet knowing the Child of Destiny's plans.
"Luo Yao, let's begin."
【Very well, Master.】
Back when the Child of Destiny was taking him to escape, he had also left behind some means.
Chu Xinghe could guess that the Child of Destiny would definitely use other methods to force him, encountering danger multiple times, saving his life, and forcing Chu Xinghe to become his disciple.
Of course, Chu Xinghe also thought of a method—a very special method.
You are using me, but how could I not be using you as well?
Besides, Li Taixuan was a ready-made identity, one that wouldn't make anyone suspicious.
Moreover, during that battle, Zhongli Qingmeng also discovered Li Taixuan's existence.
This was a naturally antagonistic identity.
Chu Xinghe's eyes flickered.
Wen Rushui.
It was time to have some real fun.
As the night deepened, it became quiet outside the house.
Even the sound of the wind had disappeared.
Li Taixuan, who was Cultivating in his room, opened his eyes.
While he was Cultivating just now, he felt the surrounding Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi pause for a moment.
A powerful expert had appeared and affected the operation of this world.
At this moment, Wen Rushui was standing outside, wearing a long black dress, her long hair hanging down.
She stared at the room, her eyes filled with killing intent.
A compass appeared in her hand.
The Formation Plate flew into the Void Realm.
"Since you've discovered me, why don't you come out?"
Wen Rushui said.
Li Taixuan walked out from the shadows, his eyes filled with surprise.
He had already cleaned up the traces of his escape.
He didn't expect that it hadn't been long before Wen Rushui found him again.
"Wen Rushui, your target is me; why must you keep hounding him?"
Wen Rushui looked at Li Taixuan.
"You must die too."
Li Taixuan narrowed his eyes.
"Wen Rushui, many factions are currently searching for your trail. You can't kill me, and besides, do you think I don't have means to deal with you?"
Wen Rushui did not speak.
She waved her arm, and the ground cracked open directly.
The house collapsed instantly, and long thorns appeared from the ground.
Li Taixuan took out a bead, and it enveloped the area around the house.
Wen Rushui stared at this bead; even her Formation could not penetrate inside.
"Heaven and Earth Compression."
Wen Rushui said, and the space became heavy.
Even with the protection of the mysterious bead, Li Taixuan still felt a strong sense of oppression.
Several Talismanic Incantations appeared in his hand, each radiating Supreme-level attacks.
Wen Rushui extended her fair wrist.
"Shatter."
The Supreme-level attacks disappeared without a trace.
Li Taixuan's expression was ugly.
Wen Rushui was at the Quasi-Emperor level of Cultivation; she was too difficult to deal with.
These Supreme attacks were rewards from the System, and every time he used one, there was one less.
"System, make a move."
Li Taixuan directly ordered the System to act.
【Very well, host.】
The Aura within Li Taixuan's body suddenly surged, and the Formation sealing the space developed dense cracks.
Wen Rushui's expression was indifferent; she was no longer surprised by whatever means these people had.
It was truly unfair.
As the Formation shattered, Wen Rushui's expression finally changed upon feeling the Aura coming from afar.
The distant sky had already become bright, and powerful Auras appeared one after another.
Wen Rushui snorted coldly, turned, and disappeared.
Li Taixuan's expression also changed; he grabbed Chu Xinghe and broke through the space, disappearing.
Chu Xinghe, pretending to still be unconscious, was already communicating with the System.
"Luo Yao, how did it go?"
【Rest assured, Master. His System made a move, and I have already caught it and successfully infiltrated it.】
【Does Master want to act now?】
"Do not act yet. This guy broke through to the Divine Emperor Realm, so he must have found another disciple. That disciple hasn't appeared yet; let's wait until we find them."
"Every disciple he finds, once they grow up, will also be at the level of a Child of Destiny. We'll take advantage of the situation. There isn't much time left for us, so we must increase our strength as quickly as possible."
【Very well, Master. I have left some means in his System to steal the treasures he manages to obtain.】
Chu Xinghe nodded.
As for those powerful experts being able to find Wen Rushui's trail, it was, of course, Chu Xinghe who had Long Yi and the others do it.
He believed the Child of Destiny had means, but he was unwilling to place his life in someone else's hands.
Waiting until dawn, Chu Xinghe woke up.
Looking at the person who appeared before him, he became excited.
