Proud Sword Emperor

Chapter 908
"Whether it's hard or not, it's worth it."

Xu Chen glanced at the two women and nodded slightly. After so many years of cultivation, these two women have now reached the quasi-sage realm.

He turned his gaze to the sky, and saw a person standing in the sky. This person was extremely strange. He was clearly standing next to everyone, but everyone seemed to be unable to see him. He had no sense of existence, as if he was standing in a different world. .

This person is Lu Jiuyin.

Xu Chen nodded to Lu Jiuyin: "Thank you for silently guarding the human race for so many years."

Lu Jiuyin has embarked on this unique path since he became the emperor. No one in the sky or the earth can see him except the incarnation of humanity, as if he was erased by someone.

"Can you see me?" Lu Jiuyin was slightly startled and then realized, yes, the current Xu Chen is already the existence of Aspiration, and he is not affected by the way of heaven, so it is normal to be able to see him.

Xu Chen nodded: "Yes, you have to endure it for a while, and I should be able to recover you after I transcend."

"Really?" Lu Jiuyin was emotionally fluctuating. Although he was used to this state, he had been in this state for a long time and was forgotten for a long time. His emotions were somewhat affected. After all, people always It is gregarious.

"really."

Xu Chen nodded, then looked at the crowd and said: "You are all heroes of the human race, and when I transcend in the future, it will be the time for you to prove the Tao and become holy with your strength."

Now he has become a world alone, and he also has a holy place that belongs to him alone in this world. Even if the difficulty of becoming a saint is much less, but the people here are still affected by the way of heaven, and it is impossible to prove the way with strength. Sanctification by virtue of merit, or sanctification by beheading three corpses, but these two methods have always failed.

However, if Xu Chen can transcend, according to what Jin Ding said, he will have the ability to make these people all prove the Tao and become holy.

"what do you mean……"

Everyone was overjoyed.

Xu Chen nodded and said: "Before I transcend, you don't have to rush to become holy with the following method, and you can become holy with strength in the future."

"Understood!"

A group of people nodded solemnly.

Xu Chen glanced at them again, and after a few words of pleasantries, he issued an order to evict the guests, and he left the human race world and returned to the prehistoric land.

He wants to seek detachment, which is a special process of asking, with no direction at all.

For this reason, he returned to the Great Desolation, turned into the power of penance to cultivate the seal, walked on foot, waded through mountains and rivers, and felt the reality of nature between heaven and earth. It took him thousands of years to walk from one end of the Great Desolation to the other.

It was another thousand years, and he found nothing again. He looked for the direction again.

For this reason, he turned into a bird and soared around the world, looking at all the habits of thousands of beasts, no matter whether it is the king of beasts or the snake and mouse, they all have different habits. It has been another thousand years, but there is still no harvest.

The third millennium, again nothing.

There was no trace of the Tao for 3000 years.

So even if Xu Chen's heart is firm, he still looks at the sky and sighs at this moment, how to achieve the way of detachment and where is the road.

Abandoning these roads, Xu Chen became ordinary and came to a small town. He was used to the prosperity of the world, so he specially picked a quiet place like a water town in the south of the Yangtze River, set up an inn, and returned to the world.

This is a town where martial arts is not prosperous. Although there are many warriors and some strong ones, most of them are ordinary people, living a life of necessities.

When Xu Chen bought the inn here, he thought that maybe the true meaning can only be seen in the ordinary, so he named his inn 'Mortal Inn'.

The Fanchen Inn is on a back street in the town. Although there are many shops around, most of them are small shops, which are not comparable to the big business buildings in the city. Therefore, the pedestrians seem a little lonely, and there are only a lot of lazy shopkeepers. Sit and chat at the door.

Many people pointed to the Fanchen Inn where Xu Chen was.

"Strange things happen every year. Everyone in the backstreet that has become a wasteland is trying to escape. This Fanchen Inn is still open here. Isn't this a waste of money?"

"Maybe the store family is also the same as us, and the money in their hands is only enough to open a store here. After all, the price of opening a store here is low."

"That's not true. You haven't seen this Fanchen inn being renovated. It's quietly brand new. It's just that the money for the renovation is enough to go to Middle Street to open a good inn."

Many discussions circulated in the lonely backstreet.

In the Fanchen Inn, a chair was placed out, Xu Chen just like other shopkeepers, sitting lazily by the door with the chair straightened, as if imitating the people here, with the same expression and behavior.

"This kid..."

When the shopkeepers saw Xu Chen, they were slightly surprised and said, "You're so young."

There was only a moment of surprise, and soon everyone changed the subject because of Xu Chen's appearance, chatting about other things in a mess, and stopped paying more attention to Xu Chen.

Time slipped by.

Xu Chen has been like this for the past few days. He followed these people to open the store early, and then moved out a chair to sit at the door, and gradually began to chat with the surrounding shopkeepers, chatting about the history of the back street, talking about things nearby, and chatting Talk about life and death.

Most of the shopkeepers here are quite old people, at least five or sixty years old, some people are even seven or eighty years old, with white hair, and they seem to be dawdling at the door every day waiting to die.

According to the people here, they are queuing up to die, and what they talk about most every day is betting. Every day, they bet on who will die first, and they never get tired of it. It is better to threaten to die sooner.

This made Xu Chen frown.

People here lack interest in life, and are full of decadence and a lot of negativity.

A brand new day Xu Chen looked at them and pondered whether it was a mistake to come here, and whether he should change another way.

While he was thinking, the first customer appeared since he opened the shop.

This is a woman with a child in her arms. She is full of travel and dust, and her clothes are shabby. After arriving here, she inquired about several shops, and finally found that Xu Chen's asking price is the cheapest, so she decided to live in Xu Chen's place. That's a month long.

A few days later, Xu Chen and the mother and son became a little more familiar. The woman's name is Ji Yue, and the child's name is Qiuqiu. They stay in the inn every day and don't go out except for dinner. Only eat one meal.

Later Xu Chen found out that the mother and son really only ate one meal a day because they didn't have enough money.

Another day.

The mother and son came down from upstairs holding hands.

Xu Chen sat at the door, set up a drawing board, and drew on it. He drew many pictures that young children might like.

When the child passed by, he stopped involuntarily, watching Xu Chen's paintings engrossed.

"Go away." Ji Yue pulled the child, as if afraid of disturbing Xu Chen.

The child responded, but did not move. He still looked up at Xu Chen's painting, his big eyes full of longing.

At this moment, Xu Chen looked back at the child, smiled, pointed to the brush and said, "Do you like it?"
