Chen Yang stared directly at Chen Shuai, silent and speechless.
"I'm not the kind of person who won't accept defeat."
Chen Shuai slowly walked over, stopping a ter away from Chen Yang, and said calmly, "There are so things that the Sect Master is unwilling to tell you for various reasons, but I still want to say them."
"Perhaps, I can say that I, Chen Shuai, implore you."
Pa.
Chen Yang lit a cigarette, "Go ahead."
"Can you give one?" Chen Shuai asked.
After taking the cigarette handed by Chen Yang, Chen Shuai clumsily lit one, squinted his eyes, and continued, "The revival of the Changsheng Sect has always been the dream of the Sect Master. Personally, I hope you can consider yourself a part of the Changsheng Sect and take on this responsibility."
"After all, the Changsheng Sect cannot always hide away in these remote mountains."
"You have never received any training from the Changsheng Sect. Now when I ask such a thing of you, it is indeed sowhat excessive, but you have shown hope."
Hoo!
Chen Shuai exhaled a puff of smoke, staring into Chen Yang's eyes.
"You regard too highly." Chen Yang t his gaze and said indifferently, "I never deny that I am a mber of the Changsheng Sect, but to be honest, I cannot bear this responsibility."
The extermination aid at the Changsheng Sect fifty years ago, Chen Yang had heard about from various sources multiple tis.
To put it bluntly, it was as if he was confronting the entire Yuning Mountain.
And this Yuning Mountain is not like the secular world; as a place for martial arts practice, it is full of masters, always soone stronger than the strongest.
Consider the Divine Conquest.
In the secular world, the strongest might only be at the Half-step Divine Conquest level, but in Yuning Mountain, they are as abundant as cattle, not an exaggeration to say they can be found everywhere here.
And this is just the southern region of Yuning Mountain, so what of Lingjing City, the center of Yuning Mountain?
At the very least, it was sothing Chen Yang could not imagine.
"Who can say what the future holds?"
Chen Shuai let him pass, "Go on, I'll help you in the future."
Chen Yang said nothing more, mounted his horse, and rode off swiftly.
"Cough, cough."
With smoke stuck in his throat, Chen Shuai couldn't help but cough, his poker-faced expression broke into a slight smile, "I believe what you can achieve in the secular world, you can also accomplish in Yuning Mountain."
Looking at the big picture, Chen Yang indeed cannot bear this responsibility right now, but the terrifying thing about a true prodigy is that their growth rate can unravel the whole situation.
Although Chen Yang didn't agree, he didn't refuse either, did he?
"I, as a flower in the greenhouse, should go out and experience so rain and storm."
...
At the sa ti.
In the vast Red Lotus Valley, the atmosphere was oppressive, even the air seed to be freezing.
In a garden, Liu Changzheng stood with his hands behind his back, gazing at the increasingly abundant and dark clouds gathering at the vault, thinking that soon the blazing sun would be covered.
This Yuning Mountain's weather is always changing, just like the martial world of Yuning Mountain.
"Grandfather."
Liu Qingi dressed in a white gown walked in, her face a mask of pallor, one hand clutching her skirt tightly, her knuckles pale.
"Three thousand disciples have assembled at the mountain gate," Liu Qingi said.
Liu Changzheng lowered his head slowly and asked Liu Qingi, "Is there news of Chen Yang?"
Liu Qingi shook her head, a painful shadow flashed over her already pallid face, "No matter whether it's disciples going to the Northern Mountain or people heading to Shisu Town, there's been no news."
"Well, with the Divine Conquest in action, his talent is high, but he can only fall."
Liu Changzheng had a face of bitterness, "In the end, it was my Red Lotus Valley that hard him; otherwise, with his talent, he would certainly beco a dominant figure in ti."
"It's all my fault."
"No!!"
Liu Qingi shook her head in pain, "The root of this matter was caused by ! If I had agreed with Biluo Sword Valley from the start and married Gu Tianxing, none of these subsequent events would have happened."
"Chen Yang wouldn't die, nor would our Red Lotus Valley fall into such a state."
At this, Liu Qingi couldn't control her tears, covered her mouth, trembling all over.
"How can you be blad for this?"
Liu Changzheng patted Liu Qingi's shoulder, "Everyone has their bottom line and steadfastness; that's sothing no one can ever deprive."
"In the end, our Red Lotus Valley has weakened for so long, without successors, naturally becoming prey in others' eyes."
Liu Changzheng sighed deeply, "But Chen Yang is innocent."
"Alas..."
Finally, Liu Changzheng waved his hand and said, "Let the three thousand disciples disperse; go down the mountain imdiately, there's no need for senseless sacrifice here."
"I've said as much, only a few left, the rest insisted on staying to share Red Lotus Valley's fate."
Said Liu Qingi, hesitating for a mont before continuing, "Liu Changfeng has also gone, taking away a group of core disciples, claiming to welco Biluo Sword Valley."
"Scoundrel!!"
Liu Changzheng's eyes suddenly clouded over, coldly saying, "Go, I don't care, but to fall into the enemy's arms? Ha..."
"How could Red Lotus Valley not fall with such juniors?"
Liu Changzheng laughed angrily, appearing to age ten years in this mont, full of desolation.
"These days, he always resented how you punished his mother, Liu Xuejun, already filled with hatred." Liu Qingi said helplessly.
"Is this the reason he surrendered?"
All the three thousand disciples know to stay and share Red Lotus Valley's fate, yet Liu Changfeng, a direct descendant, chose to surrender at the first opportunity, is this not ironic?
Moreover, Liu Changfeng is the only talented male core disciple left besides Liu Qingi in the entire Red Lotus Valley.
And yet...
"Misfortune at ho."
Liu Changzheng laughed at himself, then said harshly, "Should he appear, we must eliminate him at any cost."
"Understood, grandfather."
Half an hour later.
A thousand-man group arrived outside Red Lotus Valley, a mass of darkness exuding an aura of slaughter.
Leading was an aged figure.
The elder's physique was exceptionally tall, his eyes like brass bells, deep and bright, emphasizing his face lined like old tree bark, appearing particularly eerie.
He was dressed in a broad black robe, serious, unsmiling.
A Edgeless Heavy Saber hung at his side, reflecting a heavy, desolate luster in the setting sun.
As he approached Red Lotus Valley's mountain gate, he slowed his pace, stopping every few steps.
Upon seeing the three thousand disciples gathered at the gate, this Great Elder of Biluo Sword Valley first mocked with a disdainful laugh, then his mouth twisted into a grim, unsettling smile.
"A re Red Lotus Valley dares to defy Biluo Sword Valley's will, refusing the toast, preferring punishnt! With these scattered gangs, they think they can block my path? How presumptuous!"
This elder nad Gu Li stopped indifferently to mock and criticize.
Having said so.
Gu Li brushed his heavy saber.
Boom!
A deafening roar exploded in the void before him, followed by a beam of saber light slashing down, the mountain gate over tens of ters high crumbled instantly.
One saber crushed.
Red Lotus Valley's mountain gate was shattered with one blow, completely collapsed.
"..."
