The Tao is far away

Wang Chi and Xu Qianyu looked at the corpse on the ground, wondering what they were thinking.

Wang Chi exhaled, buried the two bodies in the pool of blood, and covered them with a fireball.

The black shadow was originally a remnant soul. It dissipated when it died, leaving nothing behind. Wang Chi had no way to bury him.

"Let's go." Wang Chi called Xu Qianyu softly.

Xu Qianyu felt very disappointed and nodded.

After leaving the blood pool and walking out of the ruins, there was no small town around, only desolate mountains and wilderness.

The dilapidated ruins seem out of place in these barren mountains and wilderness.

Wang Chi didn’t want to think about it anymore. The safety of him and Xu Qianyu was the most important thing.

After completely covering the blood pool, Wang Chi prepared to leave.

After experiencing this, they were no longer in the mood to travel. Who knows if they will encounter such a thing again.

Wang Chi took out the yellow-patterned tripod, enlarged it and jumped on it.

"Come!" Wang Chi stretched out his hand towards Xu Qianyu.

Xu Qianyu grabbed Wang Chi's hand and jumped onto the tripod.

As the sun sets, the blood-red setting sun emits its last rays of light, covering the entire world with a layer of golden gauze.

A light breeze blew by, ruffling their hair softly.

Wang Chi was lying on the huge yellow tripod. He narrowed his eyes slightly, put his hands behind his head, and stared quietly at the setting sun that was gradually disappearing in the sky.

Xu Qianyu on the side has been silent since she stepped onto the tripod. Wang Chi knows her inner thoughts and feelings, and understands her loneliness and melancholy at the moment.

Wang Chi gently stretched out his hand and gently pinched Xu Qianyu's beautiful face, with a doting smile on his face, and said softly: "Okay, those things are in the past, don't think about them anymore."

Xu Qianyu smiled slightly, slowly closed her eyes, and felt the warmth from Wang Chi's palm with her heart.

After a moment, she slowly opened her eyes, revealing a trace of confusion and bewilderment in her eyes, and whispered softly: "You say...what is this love...?" Her voice was as light as petals in the wind, but carried with it endless sorrow.

"For her, he can give up his chance to build his foundation."

"But she turned around and fell in love with someone else, and treated him in the most despicable way."

"She can die for love for others."

"He can do it for her..."

Wang Chi was not much touched by the experiences of those three people. They all had their own stories, and Wang Chi did not think about whether what they said was true or false.

Their love or hate is not within Wang Chi's scope of thought.

Burying those two people is considered as fulfilling my promise.

What Wang Chi is worried about now is the invasion of demons. If what the black shadow said is true, then things will be bad.

If the demons invade, the Southern Country is located at the front line and will inevitably be affected when the war breaks out. Where will there be a quiet place to practice?

You might even lose your life in it.

Wang Chi gently held Xu Qianyu's hair and kissed her on the forehead.

Xu Qianyu appears to be cold on the outside, but is extremely emotional on the inside. The experiences of those three people had a great impact on her.

"The entanglements between the three of them may be love, or may not be. Only they themselves know."

Xu Qianyu seemed dissatisfied with this answer, and said with a disappointed look: "Then you...no! What about us?"

Wang Chi held Xu Qianyu in his arms, resting his chin on her face, and said, "I always believe that love is not a simple choice, but the unwavering determination to spend the rest of your life together after two hearts blend with each other."

“We’ve all been through a lot along the way.”

"Whether it's setbacks or something else, are you willing to go on with me?"

Xu Qianyu left Wang Chi's arms, half sat up, looked at Wang Chi's face, and said word by word with a firm look in her eyes: "Whether it is the ends of the earth or the corners of the sea, I will be by your side, never leave you, and depend on you through life and death."

Wang Chi half-sat, looking at Xu Qianyu, with the corners of his mouth slightly raised.

How could I have deserved to make such a woman behave like this?

Since Qianyu is determined, I will protect her even if I sacrifice my life.

Never give up...

Life and death depend on each other!

The last rays of sunset left their faces and darkness enveloped them.

After returning to Tianji Gate, Xu Qianyu returned to Tianqin Peak first. Wang Chi rushed to Qingluan Bamboo House and told her what he had experienced.

Wang Chi didn't know why he had to tell Qingluan first. Things like the invasion of the demons should be told to the Holy Lord.

After hearing what Wang Chi and the other two had experienced, Qing Luan asked in panic, "Are you okay... Are you two in no danger?"

Wang Chi shook his head and asked Qingluan, "Master, if the demons really want to invade, will the Muyu Empire not care about such a matter involving war?"

In Wang Chi's opinion, the actions of the Demonic Path simply showed that they did not take the Muyu Empire seriously.

Qing Luan glanced at Wang Chi and asked, "What superpowers are there in the Eastern Wilderness today?"

Wang Chi thought for a moment and said, "The most powerful one must be the ruler of the Eastern Wasteland, the Muyu Empire. As for the other forces, they must be the Righteous Alliance and the Demonic Alliance."

Qing Luan asked again: "Since the Muyu Empire is the most powerful, why did the demons dare to start a war?"

A thought flashed through Wang Chi's mind, "It's the tacit approval of the Muyu Empire!"

"It's not just tacit approval, it's support."

"The Righteous Alliance is now in its heyday, integrating the righteous forces of the Southern Territory Alliance and the Northern Territory. What does this behavior mean in the eyes of the Muyu Empire? It's an attempt to seize power!"

Wang Chi was speechless. He didn’t expect this to happen.

Once a war breaks out, the low-level cultivators will definitely suffer, and some mortals may also be affected.

"This has happened many times. In the past, when the righteous were strong, they would suppress the righteous, and when the evil was strong, they would suppress the evil. But this time the righteous went too far. The Muyu Empire must have him calm down."

"To put it bluntly, the war in the world of immortal cultivation is all about exchanging resources. After so many years of fighting, the righteous path is still the righteous path, and the evil path is still the evil path. Nothing will change. Maintaining balance and consolidating rule are what the Muyu Empire wants."

"Moreover, some of the powerful people in the sects of both the righteous and evil ways are secretly from the Muyu Empire. Every time a war breaks out, they will take the opportunity to get rid of some dishonest people."

Wang Chi smiled, "It seems that what that person said is true, the devil is really coming!"

"Whether it's true or not, it has nothing to do with you. Even if war comes, I won't let you go to the battlefield."

Wang Chi was puzzled, "Why is this?"

Seeing that Wang Chi's brain wasn't working properly, Qing Luan subconsciously wanted to give him a slap, but she stopped herself and said, "Who dares to touch Mu Yu Xiao Xiao's people?"

Wang Chi was speechless. Mu Yuxiaoxiao was really arrogant.

However, he and Mu Yu Xiaoxiao really don't have much friendship. Wang Chi still doesn't know why Mu Yu Xiaoxiao gave him those huge resources.

"Okay, go back now. I will inform the Holy Lord about this. When you have time, write a letter to your two senior sisters and ask them to be careful in Demon-Suppressing Pass." Qingluan ordered them to leave.

After walking out of the house, Wang Chi felt relieved.

What does the invasion of demons have to do with me?

In a few days, Qianyu and I will become a Taoist couple, this is the most important thing!
