A thousand-year-old Gou, the reincarnation of the Chicken King.
If life was a survival competition, the old man's chances of winning the chicken dinner would be far greater than anyone else's.
He wasn't afraid of his opponent being tough or reckless, he was only afraid of his opponent being cunning …
If he really met such a wretched opponent, no matter how strong he was, he couldn't help but mutter in his heart.
After all, who knew when this old fellow would pop out and stab him in the back?
Chen Xi was indeed very interested in the old man's secrets.
Thus, after obtaining the Udumbara Flower, he was prepared to return to the pavilion in the middle of the lake to have a good chat with the old man.
However …
He had just taken a step when the old man's voice suddenly rang out again.
"Since Sir has already obtained the Udumbara Flower, you should be returning from a rewarding journey today …"
"There are many matters to attend to in the clan. You've also seen the farce just now, please don't take it to heart …"
"I'll teach them a good lesson right now. I'll definitely make sure they remember what rules are …"
"That's all for today. It's inconvenient for me to move around, please forgive me …"
"Yuankui, help me send the guests off."
After hearing the Elder Master's words, Jiang Yuankui immediately stood up from the soil and wiped the mud off his face. At the same time, he replied rather excitedly, "Yuankui obeys!"
After he finished speaking, Jiang Yuankui shook violently and used his inner Yuan to shake off all the mud and dust on his body.
His entire person looked like a brand new person as if he had just taken a bath.
If the Elder Master had asked him to send the guests off, that meant …
In the Elder Master's heart, he, Jiang Yuankui, was still the current clan leader of the Jiang clan. The Elder Master didn't hold a grudge against him because of what had just happened.
How could Jiang Yuankui not be excited?
Thus, he immediately ran over to Chen Xi eagerly.
"There's no need to send the guests off …"
Seeing that the old man was closing the door to his guests, Chen Xi could only smile and shake his head.
No matter what, they were still considered allies now. Furthermore, he had received a greeting gift from the old man. Naturally, he couldn't cause any unhappiness with the old man over such a small matter.
After all, they had just formed an alliance and were still in their honeymoon period …
"I came in a hurry today, so I didn't bring any gifts. Instead, I received a big gift from you for no reason …"
"I'll remember this favor for now. Once I've refined this Udumbara Flower into a pill, I'll bring a portion back for you. That way, your grandchildren won't blame me for stealing their good stuff …"
Having said that, Chen Xi shifted his gaze to the direction where Jiang Fengyan was just now.
That location was originally a small forest. The forest was full of fragrant grass and flowers. It was indeed a place with excellent scenery.
But unfortunately …
After being struck by the old man in anger, all that was left of this place was a puddle of yellow soil and mud.
It looked like an abandoned construction site on a rainy day. It was a messy and messy scene.
The scenery on Heron Island was picturesque.
However, this scene was like a drop of ink accidentally spilled on a painting, completely destroying the beauty of the entire painting.
"This happened because of me. It's a pity for this forest …"
"I don't want to ruin the beautiful scenery of the island because of this …"
"Fine, then let it return to its original form."
As he spoke, Chen Xi raised his hands and made a gesture.
Immediately after, a flower formed by the condensation of Vital Qi slowly bloomed in his palm.
After Chen Xi gently waved his hand, the glowing green flower flew straight to the ruins.
The Jiang Clan members present were somewhat confused. They had no idea what Chen Xi was doing.
The only thing they could confirm was …
Everyone was quite dissatisfied with Chen Xi's words and deeds. They only felt that he was taking advantage of the situation and saying useless words.
To be honest, instead of wasting time here, he might as well get out of Dai Yu Island as soon as possible. Out of sight, out of mind.
Who didn't know how to say beautiful words?
It was just a small forest. If it was destroyed, so be it. Did they need him to repair it?
How was he going to repair it?
He was just spouting nonsense.
Because the Elder Ancestor had just flipped out, no one dared to directly express their dissatisfaction. They could only look at Chen Xi with a rather strange expression.
However, the next moment …
Something that caused everyone to be dumbstruck suddenly happened just like that.
It was clearly early autumn, but Heron Island seemed to have ushered in the return of spring and the revival of all things.
Green sprouts rapidly grew at a speed visible to the naked eye on the yellow soil and mud within a radius of a few hundred meters.
Then, in the short span of a few breaths …
These green sprouts grew into countless plants and flowers.
Large trees were uprooted from the ground, and fresh flowers bloomed brilliantly.
In an instant …
Fragrant grass covered the ground, and mountain flowers bloomed brilliantly.
Although it was still a far cry from the lush greenery from before, it was no less than a miracle in everyone's eyes.
Who present did not have the ability to destroy mountains and break rocks?
However, it was undoubtedly a fantasy to ask them to revive all things and rejuvenate them.
It was just like how humans had invented an unparalleled nuclear bomb but still had not found an effective way to cure cancer.
Destruction was always easier than construction.
As for them …
Clearly, they were still far from it.
After Chen Xi showed off his skills, the Jiang Clan members present finally understood why the Elder Ancestor was so friendly to this outsider.
As the saying went —
Knowing someone by their reputation was not as good as meeting them in person.
The Jiang Clan members present finally had a deep understanding of the three words "Mr. Chen".
"Sir, you have great skills. This old man has learned something today …"
The old man praised from the bottom of his heart.
After Chen Xi heard that, he smiled and waved his hand. He replied nonchalantly, "Alright, I won't say any more pleasantries. I'll visit you another day … Goodbye."
As soon as she finished speaking, Chen Xi suddenly disappeared under the watchful eyes of the crowd.
After he left, many Jiang Clan members seemed to have come back to their senses. They hurriedly looked around, trying to find his departing figure …
…
Chen Xi was also very satisfied with his performance just now.
Therefore, on the way back to Shang Jing, he was still recalling that feeling in his mind.
Compared to when he made Qing Shan wear the red makeup, his current methods could be considered to be more skillful.
In fact …
It could be counted as a spell, but it could also be counted as not.
Because it included the use of vital essence and Chen Xi's comprehension of the laws of heaven and earth. It was definitely not as simple as casting a spell.
The laws of heaven and earth were a very mysterious thing.
From the reincarnation of life and death, to the rotation of the sun and moon, to the rise of clouds and rosy clouds, to the blowing of the wind on the hills.
Even if it was as small as gravel or dust, it contained a certain amount of the laws of heaven and earth.
Just as the eminent monks often said —
Every sip and every bite was predetermined.
There must be a reason for the Lanyin Silk Fruit.
This made Chen Xi feel a little strange.
After all, he usually did not cultivate at all. When he had time, he would accompany his wife and play with his children. Why did his comprehension of the laws of heaven and earth become deeper?
Could it be …
This was the so-called cultivation in the secular world?
Only by experiencing the secular world could one taste the various forms of life and enjoy the seven emotions and six desires.
Since Tianxuan already had the three paths of 'Heartless', 'Unruffled', and 'Heartless'.
Then why couldn't he create a brand-new Emotional Path based on his own experience?
Benevolence, righteousness, propriety, wisdom, and trust, gentleness, respect, frugality, and tolerance.
With the traditional virtues of Hua Xia as the outline, he created his own 'Path' …
