In the Deserted World that had been silent for countless years, it was impossible for a harmless little boy to exist.
His appearance in such a situation was even more suspicious.
Chang Ling could not help but speculate because it was beyond common sense.
So much so that she began to think about how to retreat.
Seeing that she did not speak, the little boy on the back of the green bull suddenly sat up straight and looked at Chang Ling with his bright black eyes. "Are you afraid of me?"
She was still speechless and did not know how to answer.
Right at this moment, a voice that couldn't suppress its anger rang out. "Get out of my way!"
Chang Ling was shocked. Only then did she remember that she was still on top of the little Emperor. She hurriedly got up and retreated.
"So, sorry …" She blushed and said in shame.
The little Emperor suddenly sat up and looked at her with a murderous gaze. "If there's a next time, I'll take your life!"
Chang Ling knew that she was in the wrong and could not refute. She could only sulk.
Then he propped himself up and stood up with difficulty. He was almost on the verge of collapsing.
At this moment, the little Emperor saw that there was a boy riding a green bull behind him.
He subconsciously touched his waist and was shocked to find that the protective soft sword had been left in the beast's eye.
"Who are you?"
The little Emperor slowly retreated and stared at the boy on the back of the green bull.
"Can't you tell? I'm a cowherd," the little boy said crisply.
He was stunned. Cowherd? Cowherd in the Deserted World that had been silent since ancient times?
This was simply too inconceivable.
"Why? You don't believe me?" the little boy asked again.
The little Emperor, who was cautious and suspicious by nature, did not say much. He was thinking about how to leave.
At this moment, Chang Ling said, "I believe you. Of course I believe you. But this place is so dangerous. How did you survive until now?"
Hearing this, the little boy took off the bamboo hat on his head. "No, there's only me and a bull here. We've always been like this. How could there be any danger?"
Chang Ling and the little Emperor were slightly stunned. Obviously, they were starting to doubt him.
Just the Heavenly Beast that had almost killed them was enough to prove that the Deserted World was not simple.
However, when she saw the little boy's serious expression, she was puzzled.
Right at this moment, the young Imperial Lord dragged his Immortal Body that had yet to recover and directly left.
Seeing this scene, Chang Ling also subconsciously wanted to follow, but stopped in her tracks, somewhat at a loss.
"Who are you looking for?"
The boy leaped down from the ox's back and landed firmly on the ground. He raised his head and looked at Chang Ling with sincerity.
She hesitated for a moment, and finally said softly, "Have you seen a young Derived Immortal here? The kind with a very unique aura, unforgettable."
When the boy heard that, he grinned. "I've never seen him before. I said that ever since I gained spiritual awareness, there's only me and a green bull here. There are no other Derived Immortals."
Chang Ling was speechless. She wanted to retort and prove that the Black Ox Boy was not the only one here, but she felt that there was no need.
She forced a smile. "If that's the case, then I'll have to bother you. I'll go look for it alone."
After Chang Ling finished speaking, she nodded slightly and continued forward.
The boy turned his head and looked at the figure in the distance. He said, "I'll look for it with you."
Chang Ling was just about to decline when she realized that the Black Ox Boy had already arrived beside her. He raised his head and let out a heavy sound, as if urging her to move forward.
"Moo —"
She was helpless, but seeing that the Black Ox Boy did not have any ill intentions, she decided to move forward together.
The vast world was filled with clouds and smoke that could not be dispersed. Everything was barren and occupied by eternal loneliness. Time had long lost its meaning.
In this place, there was only loneliness as a companion.
"Moo —"
His entire body was covered in blood, and his plain white clothes were soaked. His thin and weak figure was on the verge of collapse, as if he could fall at any time and would not get up again.
However, he was incomparably tenacious. Although he was on the verge of collapse, he still moved forward resolutely.
Chang Ling followed closely behind, maintaining a distance that was neither close nor far. She wanted to go forward and support him, but she was also a little afraid.
Looking at that determined figure, the inherent impression in the depths of her heart had already quietly changed.
At the same time, she also had many doubts in her heart. The young Imperial Emperor did not seem to be as perverse, violent, and unreasonable as the rumors said. Although he was a little frivolous and lecherous, he was still approachable.
As Chang Ling's thoughts ran wild, she followed him unhurriedly into the depths of the Deserted World.
It was silent, and only the Black Ox Boy's low cry could be heard.
After an unknown period of time, a Heavenly River blocked their path forward.
The Heavenly River was so wide that it almost divided the Deserted World into two.
The dark and lightless Heavenly River was like a void that had been silent for thousands of years, and it was enough to swallow everything.
Chang Ling also followed him to the boundless Heavenly River, and her gaze was a little serious.
And just as she was thinking about how to cross the Heavenly River, the young Imperial Emperor did not hesitate at all and leaped into the sky above the Heavenly River.
Then, his Immortal Body's injuries were far from healed, and his head was dizzy, so after crossing less than a hundred miles, he simply fell into the Heavenly River.
There was no splash of water, as if he directly merged into it. It was extremely strange.
Seeing this scene, Chang Ling's Immortal Body trembled. In great shock, she did not have time to think and also leaped into the Heavenly River.
But an even more strange scene appeared. Almost at the same time that she stepped into the sky above the Heavenly River, her Immortal Body directly lost control, and the development force in her meridians could not be used at all.
And the Heavenly River below her had an indescribable and irresistible suction force that even a Grand Development Immortal like her could not cross.
In the blink of an eye, she also followed in the footsteps of the young Imperial Emperor and fell into the Heavenly River, and there was not even a splash of water.
A faint sigh came from the shore. The young boy riding on the back of the green ox shook his head, and there was a maturity in his eyes that did not match his appearance.
Then, facing the boundless Heavenly River, he rode the ox down.
The green ox raised its head and mooed. Then, its huge body floated on the water surface, and it did not sink.
It was like a lone boat, moving forward in the Heavenly River.
The young boy riding on the back of the green ox seemed to be used to it. He drove the green ox under him and slowly crossed.
And when they passed by the place where they fell, the green ox's head dove, and then an unconscious figure appeared.
The young boy reached out and took the unconscious Chang Ling, and then he placed the unconscious Chang Ling on the back of the ox and continued forward.
After dozens of breaths, the young Imperial Emperor's body was also found and placed on the back of the green ox.
It was like sitting on a lone boat, moving forward alone.
The Heavenly River came to an end, and at the end was a barren mountain that towered into the sky. It was filled with a desolate and ancient aura.
The green ox floated out of the water and stood on the shore.
The young boy patted its horns, turned around, and gently waved his hand, placing the young Imperial Emperor and Chang Ling on the ground.
