To unite people's hearts, if you don't value me, I'll turn around and leave.
Looking at the divine beast egg, which only had more markings but hadn't hatched, Chu Xinghe's face darkened.
The bones inside the coffin had already turned to dust. Hidden inside was a black bead.
Chu Xinghe knew this was the item Zhongli Qingmeng was looking for.
He put away the bead and the divine beast egg, then buried the ashes.
Chu Xinghe then set his eyes on the white jade pillars and the coffin.
Crack, crack.
The pillars crumbled, and dense cracks appeared all over the coffin.
Chu Xinghe sighed.
"Damn it, I didn't manage to get anything."
【Master, you actually managed to get quite a lot. By hijacking the Child of Destiny's Opportunity halfway, his Luck dropped by forty thousand directly.】
【The Child of Destiny didn't recover his Physique, didn't obtain the Cultivation Technique, and the demon god pearl didn't fall into his hands either.】
【Master, your heart is a bit black.】
"system little cutie, why are you being sarcastic again?"
"Now that most of the Disciples have left, only Li Changsheng and I remain."
"If I didn't get the Opportunity, it must have been Li Changsheng. How do you think Zhongli Qingmeng will treat him?"
【Uh... she will kill him, and he will die a miserable death.】
"Besides, the Zhongli Family is at the pinnacle of this Grand Void Heaven Realm; he won't be able to run even if he wants to."
"You also said that while I was in seclusion, Zhongli Qingmeng killed five other Children of Destiny."
"With Li Changsheng right under her nose, do you think he can escape?"
【He cannot escape.】
"Therefore, he is not the Child of Destiny we are looking for. He has no background, only high Luck and a Golden Finger to find treasures."
"It would take forever for him to help us complete our mission."
"If I help him now, all my previous efforts will be in vain, and I will be in danger myself."
"If I die, will you still be able to complete the mission?"
【No.】
"Since you know we can't complete the mission, even if Li Changsheng obtained the Opportunity, he would still die, and I would be exposed. It's better to continue biding my time."
"Once the Divine Beast hatches, I will have a great helper."
"Knowing it's a dead end and still helping him—doesn't that make us both look stupid?"
"I am already very smart, and System, you are even smarter than me. Wouldn't you agree?"
【Correct, this Child of Destiny is not the person we are looking for.】
【Master is undercover with dedication, waiting for the right moment. Rewarded with four hundred thousand help points.】
Chu Xinghe sighed.
It's so good to have no conscience.
It's so happy.
No wonder they say that only those without a conscience can get rich. Those with a conscience can't.
When Chu Xinghe walked out, Li Changsheng looked at him.
"Let's go."
Li Changsheng looked back.
"That Senior?"
Chu Xinghe glanced at him.
"Do you really want to be subject to Possession?"
Li Changsheng opened his mouth wide, his eyes full of disbelief.
"Old people who refuse to die are nothing but thieves. If I didn't have life-saving measures, I might have been subject to Possession."
"Also, what do you think I came in here for? Was it really for the Opportunity?"
"All these years, the number of talented Disciples in Tianyan Holy Land has been dwindling. Have you never suspected anything?"
After saying this, Chu Xinghe patted his forehead.
"You are just an Outer Sect Disciple, why am I telling you this?"
Li Changsheng hadn't spoken yet.
Just now, he felt as if something important was leaving him, but now his mind was in Chaos.
Everything just now felt like an illusion.
"Take these Medicinal Pills and Cultivate well."
Chu Xinghe turned and left.
Li Changsheng watched Chu Xinghe walk away.
He glanced at the cave entrance behind him, gritted his teeth, and walked back in.
Seeing the white jade pillars and the coffin had collapsed, a sense of absurdity rose in his heart.
It really was going to be Possession.
He had naturally heard that when many old monsters were nearing the end of their Lifespan, they would attempt Possession on young Prodigies.
Rumble.
At this moment, the cave entrance suddenly collapsed.
Li Changsheng's face turned pale.
A large rock was about to smash into him.
Li Changsheng had only one feeling: my life is over.
Bang, bang, bang.
The stones shattered.
Chu Xinghe dragged him out, coughing up several mouthfuls of blood.
His face turned pale.
"If you really want to die, I will grant your wish."
Li Changsheng opened his mouth, then closed it again.
"Damn it, when I go back, I'm quitting being this Saint. I have to take care of the Disciples, and who knows when I'll get myself killed."
Li Changsheng looked ashamed.
"Saint, are you alright?"
Chu Xinghe didn't speak.
He dragged him and disappeared into the Secret Realm.
When they came out, Chu Xinghe was a bit stunned.
Dense crowds of Disciples were standing there, looking at Chu Xinghe with fanaticism and excitement in their eyes.
"Great, the Saint is out!"
"Haha, I knew the Saint is blessed with great Luck and would have no problems."
"The Saint stayed out for so long just to save a piece of trash."
"I wish I could be carried by the Saint too."
"I can't believe what it would be like to become the Saint's brother."
At this moment, the several Elders also breathed a sigh of relief when they saw Chu Xinghe come out.
Chu Xinghe put Li Changsheng down.
"Let's go, to the Tianyan Palace, I have things to discuss."
Chu Xinghe said to the Eight Great Elders, then disappeared in the lead.
In the Tianyan Palace, the Eight Great Elders looked at one another.
"People from the Killing God Hall have infiltrated; what do you intend to do?"
After Chu Xinghe finished speaking, he remained silent.
The Eight Great Elders looked at one another.
They naturally knew about the Killing God Hall.
It was precisely because they knew that they were hesitant.
Chu Xinghe sighed.
"Go discuss it with the Old Ancestor, and tell me the result afterward."
As Chu Xinghe's voice faded, an old voice rang out.
The Old Man from before appeared.
"No need to discuss, just take them out."
"Seventh Ancestor."
They looked at the Old Man before them and bowed in salute.
"Let's go, I know a few of their strongholds."
"You eight are truly cowards; the Saint has been bullied, and you are still hesitating here."
"You have no backbone at all. If things continue like this, I wouldn't be surprised if the Tianyan Holy Land were destroyed by others."
After the Seventh Ancestor finished speaking, he took Chu Xinghe and disappeared.
In the spatial tunnel, Chu Xinghe looked at the Old Man strangely.
"Aren't you afraid that the Tianyan Holy Land will really be destroyed?"
The Seventh Ancestor sighed.
"We are old. We have been waiting for someone who can carry forward the Tianyan Holy Land. After waiting for so many years, we finally have hope."
"If we don't stand up for you today, you will turn around and leave the Tianyan Holy Land without staying, right?"
Chu Xinghe nodded.
"That mindset is good; keep it up in the future."
Chu Xinghe was a bit surprised.
"If the Tianyan Holy Land is of no help to you and can't stand up for you when you are wronged, then what's the point of staying here as a Saint?"
"If you hold in your anger, your heart will not be at peace, and your Dao will not be smooth."
"The Saint is the face of a Holy Land. If survival is bought by forcing the Saint to suffer humiliation, it will eventually fade away."
"Many Holy Lands cannot see through this and have fallen into the long river of history."
"Even if many have seen through it, they have still sunk into the river—it is a matter of time and fate."
"We old guys can still contribute a bit of residual heat; it depends on how far you can go."
"As long as we are alive for one more day, you are the Saint; no one can change that."
"Unless we die and can no longer protect you, then how you fare at that time is none of our business."
