In front of the bonfire, a group of young people were singing and dancing, while those who were already married were there, drinking wine and enjoying the food. Life was really colorful.
Zhang Ronghao also picked up a jar of wine and went to find those people from hundreds of years ago to reminisce about the past.
Lin Xiu, on the other hand, looked up at the bright moon in the sky and drowned his sorrows with wine. He really did not know how to make the village chief change his mind and bring these extremely powerful people to the battlefield in the Immortal Martial Continent.
It had been a while since he left Huai Ning City, and he did not know if his family was still living well.
At this time, a young and beautiful girl suddenly sat down next to Lin Xiu, then a pair of big bright eyes looked at Lin Xiu non-stop. In the end, it only made the leader's hair stand on end. He shrugged his shoulders and revealed a bitter smile.
"Miss, why don't you go down and dance? What are you doing next to me? "After saying this, he raised his head and drank the wine in one gulp.
"I heard from the elders in my family that you're only 20 years old, but you're already a master of the universe realm. Is this true?" The young girl had an innocent look on her face.
"So what if it is true? Even if I reached the Universe Realm, I still can't protect the perseverance in my heart. What's the use of this kind of cultivation?" Lin Xiu revealed a self-mocking smile and looked exceptionally desolate, causing the girl's heart to skip a beat and actually feel a little sad.
"Can you tell me about the outside world? I have always been in the village since I was born. Dad and Mom told me that the outside world is too dangerous, so we just need to cultivate in the village. "The girl blinked, then held her cheek with her jade hand and stared at Lin Xiu.
"There is nothing much to say. In fact, I am quite envious of your life, but when the nest is overturned, how can the eggs be unbroken? Once the outside world is really occupied by the Netherworld Palace, I believe it won't be long before the flames of war burn here. " Lin Xiu was slightly taken aback, but he still opened the conversation box and immediately told the young lady beside him everything that happened outside in full detail.
Ever since he could remember, he worked hard to cultivate for the sake of reuniting with his parents and family. Now, he carried a heavy burden and continued to pursue the highest realm of cultivation for the sake of the world. Lin Xiu had gone through countless bloodshed along the way, but he was the only one who knew the pain. However, when facing the girl beside him, he spilled out his heart, which was rare for him.
Ever since he started on the path of cultivation, he had honed himself between life and death. He had traveled thousands of mountains and rivers. From a remote domain, he had come to the brilliant world. He had competed with many geniuses. In the end, he had stood out in his early twenties and became the youngest Universe Realm warrior in history. He had told the girl everything.
"Actually, to be honest, I should be very satisfied to be able to reach my current cultivation so quickly. However, time waits for no man. If I want my wife and children to be able to live happily and peacefully, just like the two of you, it's really too difficult." Lin Xiu let out a sigh, then reached out for the jar of wine beside him, only to find that it was already empty. The extremely considerate girl smiled at Lin Xiu, then bounced over to a villager at the side and brought over a jar of wine for Lin Xiu.
She sat down beside Lin Xiu again and revealed a hint of sadness in her eyes. Then, she said to Lin Xiu, "Actually, the people in our village are not as unbearable as you think. They also want to go out and do their part for the continent. But do you know? It was thousands of years ago, before our village came here. It was also an extremely glorious example. I heard from the elders in the village that there seemed to be a war at that time. Many of the seniors in our village shed their blood and shed their last drop of blood on the battlefield. "
"However, when we finally gave our all and finally calmed the war, we found that some of our friends and relatives had all disappeared in the smoke of war. Disheartened, we chose to hide from the world and came to this isolated place."
After hearing the girl's words, Lin Xiu was a little lost in thought. He could imagine that after going through so many hardships and finally completely quelling a disaster, bringing peace and stability to the continent for thousands of years, when he looked up and saw that the people he was familiar with were all gone. This was indeed disheartening.
If the battle against the Netherworld Palace was as the young lady had said, even if they won in the end, all the people they were familiar with would be gone. What would be the point of fighting with their lives on the line?
Lin Xiu couldn't help but fall into deep thought.
The girl beside him saw that he seemed to have something on his mind, so she didn't disturb him. She just sat quietly beside Lin Xiu and stared blankly at the men and women in the field, as well as the occasional hearty laughter of the uncles in the village.
The moon was bright and the stars were sparse. This banquet lasted until dawn before everyone gradually dispersed.
The girl also left under the call of her family. In the end, only Lin Xiu, Zhang Ronghao, and the middle-aged man were left. Even the village chief had returned to his residence.
"Kid, your talent is not bad. To be honest, even when I was young, I didn't have your cultivation." The middle-aged man, who had been indifferent to Lin Xiu, suddenly threw a jar of wine to Lin Xiu and started to talk.
"During the banquet just now, that kid Zhang Ronghao also told me some things about the outside world. If it was a few hundred years ago, then even if I disobeyed the orders of the village chief, I would go out and fight to my heart's content. But as I continue to grow older, I just want to see all the people in the village live safely." The middle-aged man drank the wine in one gulp and said with flagging interest.
Lin Xiu opened the clay seal on the wine jar and took a big gulp of wine. He then turned to the middle-aged man and said word by word, "The rise and fall of the world is everyone's responsibility. Even if you guys live in seclusion here, it is undeniable that you are still a part of the Immortal Martial Continent. Right now, the continent is in an abyss of suffering and is in danger of being crushed at any time. Once the Netherworld Palace completely quells the war, they will definitely think of ways to investigate the situation of the entire continent. At that time, you guys will definitely be discovered by them."
"By that time, although the people in your village are extremely powerful, you have no idea how powerful the people of the Netherworld Palace are. Once they completely quell the war, they will definitely think of ways to investigate the situation of the entire continent. If they discover you guys, the strength of your village alone will definitely not be a match for them. If you really want to obtain a stable and peaceful life, then you must have the courage to cut off all means of retreat and fight to the death with the Netherworld Palace. Only then will we be able to welcome the hope of life! "
"No one likes war. Ever since I was born, I've been living in bloodshed. However, my greatest wish is for my family to be able to live peacefully together. I want to be able to watch my infant son grow up bit by bit. I want to be able to spend the rest of my life with my beloved wife. I want to be able to lie side by side in the courtyard at night and watch the stars. Who wouldn't want such a life? But do I have a choice? If I choose to escape, I can obtain a moment of peace, but the goal of the Netherworld Palace is to sacrifice all the living beings on the continent so that Nine Nether can obtain the true cultivation base of the Dao Comprehension Realm. "
"No one can stay out of this, no one …" Lin Xiu looked exceptionally sad.
After a series of words, the middle-aged man also had a thoughtful look on his face.
After a long time, the middle-aged man looked up at the bright night sky and let out a sigh that no one could hear.
"Yes, who can really stay out of this?"
