The sect is full of evildoers, but I am the eldest brother.

After spending several days in Qili Cave, Xi Zhaozhao felt extremely upset every night when she lay down on the couch to fall asleep.

Sometimes she worries about her good sister Shen Lingjiao, sometimes she worries about whether monsters will suddenly attack here...

But generally speaking, the former is more common.

As for the monster that appeared briefly and had not appeared for several days, Xi Zhaozhao gradually almost forgot about it!

It was simply because his little head loved to daydream that he remembered the monster attack over and over again... To be honest, the battle ended too quickly that day, and Xi Zhaozhao didn't think the monster was scary.

Maybe it’s because Lao Ba is too strong.

But it is true that it is ugly!

I have never seen anything so ugly in my life...

"Haha~, celebrating another day of survival~"

Hua Jingchen yawned early in the morning and came to the blacksmith shop as usual.

Without pressure, there is no motivation.

It had been a long time since Hua Jingchen had seen such an oppressive monster like the One-Eyed Dragon, and he himself had become a lot more relaxed.

At this time, Xi Zhaozhao was seen cleaning up the debris scattered in the blacksmith shop, which was unusual for him.

Hua Jingchen suddenly had an idea. He swayed forward, raised his eyebrows, and teased, "Little sister, are you alone? If you have nothing to do today, would you like to join me, hand in hand, under that beautiful sunset, and spend the limited youth in your life?"

"Go away, can't you see I'm busy?"

Xi Zhaozhao pushed away Hua Jingchen's face with disgust. She didn't think this was flirting.

Why would a sissy girl who likes men try to pick up other people's girls?

It’s so sad to watch!

"Ho ho."

Hua Jingchen asked with a smile: "Are you worried about something?"

Xi Zhaozhao didn't bother to pay attention to Hua Jingchen and replied calmly, "Why do you think so?"

"Isn't it obvious?"

"Is it obvious?"

"A little bit."

Hua Jingchen shrugged nonchalantly, then asked, as if deliberately or unintentionally, "Why didn't I see you and Master Mu Youli learning weapon refining today?"

"I was thinking of patronizing your business since you're working so hard!"

Xi Zhaozhao is no longer the same person she used to be, and she knows the other deeper meaning behind Hua Jingchen's words.

Perhaps thinking this wasn't such a difficult secret to share, Xi Zhaozhao put the scattered items back to their original places. Without giving it much thought, he casually replied, "Next time. I'm going on a long trip soon."

Seeing that Xi Zhaozhao was not on guard at all, Hua Jingchen also took off his disguise: "Where are you going?"

"Zhongyuan, Nanwu...it depends on my mood."

Xi Zhaozhao clapped his hands and called it a day, then turned around and reminded him, "Aren't you from Gucheng? If something this big were to happen, there's no telling when the whole world would be in chaos. You'd better go back and take charge of the situation as soon as possible."

Jokes aside, Hua Jingchen, as the "Young Master Chen" who is as famous as the "Western Demon", is worthy of the title of the best in Mobei in terms of vision and cultivation.

Sometimes you really can’t blame Hua Jingchen for being too weak. If you have to blame someone, blame the one-eyed dragon for bringing too much oppression.

It’s so powerful, so ridiculously powerful!

Xi Zhaozhao has seen many truly strong people.

But whether it's the Qingshan guest who sleeps until noon and refuses to wake up, or the Xiaoyao Tower boss who is so busy that he feels like he has no desire to live...

These people might be able to kill the one-eyed man with a slap.

But the feeling given to Xi Zhaozhao...

It’s better not to mention it, so as not to damage Xi Zhaozhao’s awe of the strong.

The truly strong ones never show off deliberately, they know what they want!

The exceptions were Qing Shan Ke and Lei Zun. One of them was racking his brains trying to become famous and have the world praise him, while the other, even if he revealed his identity with a loud speaker, would only attract spitting from passersby...

"I've asked a few passersby about the situation these past few days. Honestly, it's worse than I imagined... Do you really want to leave now?"

Hua Jingchen said seriously: "Some things are scarier than monsters!"

Even scarier than monsters is the human heart! Ever since the Bailian Pavilion's Saint Shen Jin was murdered, Bailian City has been sealed off, and no one is allowed to enter or leave at will.

Monsters mostly appear at night, but the desert bandits who commit crimes during the day are not much weaker than monsters!

It’s because these desert bandits have already broken the traditional conventions.

Far better than the evil people in remote areas!

Among them, practitioners make up the majority.

They might be young masters from aristocratic families with a long and rich heritage, or orthodox disciples of a cultivation sect, or independent and renowned cultivators...

There are few poor people who are forced to become bandits due to life difficulties.

But why would they be willing to give up their glamorous appearance and degenerate into desert bandits that the world fears?

No, they never gave up!

They want to...

Take everything you like into your arms!

After all, things obtained in a fair and honest way are very few. If you can use some means to satisfy your inner greed, why not do it?

The so-called desert bandits are actually extremists from various forces. They gamble with their lives. If they win, they can not only get what they want.

As long as you wipe your butt clean, nothing will happen.

But if I lose...

This is a gamble with life.

Taking that step means you are ready to match it.

"I've seen the sky fall."

Xi Zhaozhao said absentmindedly, "What could be more terrifying than the sky splitting apart? Besides, I have my senior brother here, so I'm not alone."

"So good."

Hua Jingchen thought that since Xi Zhaozhao and Lao Ba were going to leave for a while, there was no point in him staying any longer, so he might as well go back to Lonely City to take a look.

The world is in chaos and everyone is in danger. Without a powerful backer to protect them, the cultivators in the Kaihai realm are nothing more than slightly stronger ants in the eyes of those with great supernatural powers.

Similarly, in the eyes of the celestial beings in the Henian Realm or the Xuanyou Realm, any person with great supernatural powers is the same.

However, as far as Hua Jingchen can remember, the only big shot in the Henian realm who is still active in front of the world is Jing Cangshan, the leader of the Mingshen Sect.

Many of the others who are worthy of being called famous have already been obsessed with the great Dao and no longer care about worldly affairs.

Hua Jingchen even felt that the reason why the leader of Mingzong indulged himself so much was that he could no longer see hope of a breakthrough in this life, so he wanted to live a wonderful life while he had it.

It's a pity really.

If Jing Cangshan had not chosen to give up, he might not have been able to break through to the legendary state of unity between man and nature after so many years. With his qualifications, he is also in the upper-middle level in the state of unity of man and nature, and it is difficult to find an opponent.

But rather than saying that Jing Cangshan gave up, it would be better to say that after being struck by the divine thunder, he became more open-minded.

Something will occur if it belongs to your life, if not, do not push it.

Jing Cangshan has achieved such success today.

He is already content.

After all... after practicing hard for most of my life, I was caught up by a group of young people who had only been practicing for less than 60 years. Comparing myself with others is really frustrating!
