"Grandpa?" Yuan Xuejian had been waiting downstairs for a long time, but she didn't hear anything. She thought that something must have happened upstairs, so she couldn't help but want to go upstairs to take a look. However, just when she was about to go upstairs, she felt that an invisible hand was forcefully rolling towards her.
"Go down!" Chu Yunsheng clenched his right hand and said coldly.
Before Yuan Xuejian realized what was going on, she was already swept down the stairs by the invisible hand mercilessly. She was in a very awkward situation.
"Are you okay?" A young man's figure flashed, and he quickly caught Yuan Xuejian, who was falling down the stairs. His tone was full of concern. "What?
"Thank you, I'm fine!" Yuan Xuejian quickly regained her senses and stood firmly on her feet. She then left the young man's arm and said softly.
Ever since she was born, she had never been treated so rudely by anyone. Because of her father's identity, her wood elemental awakening, and her peerless beauty, everyone spoiled her and protected her. Even later on, whether it was Chu Clan's disciples, Yun Sect's disciples, or even that small fortress that Xiang Chaoxi lived in, they were all very polite to her. They never offended her. Today's scene was the first time that she had ever been treated like this.
However, she didn't dare to say anything. Because she was smart, she knew that in this old man's eyes, other than the concern that he showed when he suspected that she looked like an old friend, there was nothing else special about him. Perhaps, he was not even comparable to a finger of his disciple.
And this old man was definitely not an ordinary person. He was actually a Yuan Tian stage three master who dared to call the world's most powerful man by his name without any respect. This was enough to make her feel helpless.
Yuan Xuejian pulled back her hair that was messed up in front of her forehead and tucked it behind her ear. Then she began to tidy up her clothes that were messed up by the invisible hand. Suddenly, she noticed that behind the young man, there was a young girl staring at her with a pair of envious eyes.
She smiled. Naturally, she understood what was going on. Although she was wearing a mask, the foundation of her beauty was still there. Even if half of her elegance was removed, the remaining five points were enough to make people look at her!
Yuan Xuejian had encountered this kind of situation many times before, so she was very familiar with it. She didn't say anything and just pretended that she didn't see anything. However, she still subconsciously kept a certain distance from the young man and waited on the side.
"Is your grandfather okay?" The young man didn't seem to notice the small movements between the girls at all. A trace of doubt flashed in his eyes as he looked upstairs, as if he was concerned.
Yuan Xuejian shook her head. She suddenly had a strange feeling in her heart. When she went downstairs, she suddenly had an idea. She said that Chu Yunsheng was her grandpa. But now that she thought about it, judging from Chu Yunsheng's attitude towards her, it seemed to be a bit inappropriate. She didn't know if the old man would get angry because of it.
The young man saw her worried face and thought that she was worried about what happened upstairs, so he smiled and said, "if you trust me, I might be able to help. Two years ago, when I was trying to break through Yuan Tian stage one, something also happened. Maybe I can give them some advice."
Yuan Xuejian did not hide the fact that Yu Hanwu was breaking through Yuan Tian stage one, because it was impossible to hide it. As long as one was at Yuan Tian stage two, they would be able to feel the familiar energy fluctuation. However, she never thought of asking these people to help her. The old man downstairs was a Yuan Tian stage three master. He had a lot of strange and powerful abilities, so he did not need anyone to tell him what to do.
Just when she was about to politely decline, since it was just an act, she naturally had to make it look real. But suddenly, a strong and powerful voice came from upstairs. It seemed like it had been suppressed for many years.
"You lost!"
Yuan Xuejian and the people downstairs were all shocked when they heard the voice.
"Is there a competition upstairs?" the young man blurted out in surprise.
Other people also looked back and forth between Yuan Xuejian and the people upstairs. They were all surprised. If there was really a competition, why didn't they hear any sound of fighting just now? But if it was not a competition, then what was the explanation for this sentence?
Not only them, even Yuan Xuejian herself was also confused. Now that she thought about it carefully, the more she thought about it, the more she felt that not only the old man's ability was strange, but even his behavior and the way he talked were also different from ordinary people. 'Is there something wrong with his brain?'
She couldn't help but shiver when she thought of this. It was not a big deal if the old man was a madman, and Yuan Tian stage three masters were not that scary either. But if the two of them were gathered in one person, then it would be a very scary thing!
Just as she was thinking about this, a series of footsteps came from the stairs. Everyone turned on the light source and saw an old man with messy white hair slowly walking down the stairs empty-handed. However, his eyes were as sharp as torches. Starting from Yuan Xuejian, he glanced around the room as if there was a gust of wind.
The young man's eyebrows twitched, and then he stepped forward and said, "I am Yan Ge, nice to meet you, senior practitioner. Just now, your granddaughter was still worried about you, so she was going to help you."
Chu Yunsheng glanced at him and didn't say anything. He just felt a little happy. He didn't expect that he would also become a 'senior practitioner'. But when his eyes finally fell back to Yuan Xuejian, he noticed that she was secretly winking at him. When their eyes met, a beautiful smile appeared on her face, and she quickly stepped forward and said, "grandpa, are you okay? Where is junior martial brother? "
But she never thought that Chu Yunsheng would ignore her. He just walked past her and walked to the jealous girl and said, "did you come from the Zhiwu forest?"
When Chu Yunsheng was following them before, he had eavesdropped on some information, including the origin of this girl. Because she had been complaining that the conditions in the Zhiwu forest were better.
Hearing this question, not only the young man, but all the people in the room also became alert. They all stood up and looked at Chu Yunsheng vigilantly, as if they wanted to see through him. But they could only rely on their intuition to judge that Chu Yunsheng was a master, but they didn't know exactly what stage he had reached.
The jealous girl was also startled at first, but when she saw the depressed expression of Yuan Xuejian behind Chu Yunsheng, she couldn't help but feel proud. She didn't think that Chu Yunsheng was a powerful master. Even if he was powerful, they still had the advantage in numbers. So she naturally wouldn't be afraid of him. So she proudly raised her chin and said, "why should I tell you?"
Chu Yunsheng smiled. To everyone's surprise, he abruptly cut off the conversation, ignored her, and went straight to the door. Looking at the glimmer of light in the sky, he narrowed his eyes in excitement.
He won. This was the first time in his life that he had defeated the rule of destiny. Although the price was still very heavy, he still won. And that was enough.
He had waited for this day for too long, too long, and he had sacrificed too much …
Thinking that Yu Hanwu still didn't know that he had become a leech, and he was still in a coma, it would probably take some time for him to wake up. So he needed to use this time to sort out his plan.
He didn't know why, but in the past few days, he had been repeatedly thinking about the relationship between him and the other forces. In the end, he found that apart from Dark, the only force that could give him hope was the Zhiwu forest.
Although Old Sun and the members of squad 9 were not good people, when he was at his weakest, they always treated him as one of their own and always protected him. When his life was in danger, what was even more unexpected was that they would devote all their power to save him. This kind of reminded him of the time when he was in the Special Attack Team of Seven Insects. If even the kind and weak Xiao Chuan and the innocent and simple Xiao Cao had changed, then he didn't think that the other old people who had interacted with him before would also change. He didn't need to waste time on them one by one.
If it really came to that, then there wouldn't be a single place on this land that he would miss.
Chu Yunsheng stood there for a long time. He didn't feel too much joy or arrogance because he had defeated the rule of karma. It was just that at this moment, the grudges of the past didn't seem to be as heavy as before. It was as if he was buried in a grave and couldn't breathe.
The words that Gen Zi said before his death were gently echoing in his ears …
"Senior practitioner, we are all scattered people now. Xiao Yang has indeed joined the Zhiwu forest before. This is not a shameful thing. I heard from your granddaughter just now that you also don't belong to any force. I have a suggestion, I don't know if senior practitioner is interested in it." Yan Ge glanced at the jealous girl who was ignored by Chu Yunsheng and walked to Chu Yunsheng's side.
He had already noticed that Chu Yunsheng might have "eavesdropped" on their conversation. Otherwise, how could a stranger who met for the first time know Yang Xixi's origin at a glance?
Since their conversation had been eavesdropped, then that secret must have been leaked. However, he didn't care. Because when he found out that Yuan Xuejian was an extremely rare wood elemental warrior, he already had a plan to recruit her.
"Tell me about it." Chu Yunsheng knew what he was referring to. Everyone knew it, but they just didn't want to say it out loud.
"Three days later, there is a rumor that the cultivation propagator will gather all the scattered martial artists in the south to discuss something important!" Yan Ge subconsciously looked outside the door and whispered.
"What important thing?" Chu Yunsheng felt very strange. Even if it was the real Edgar, what was the use of looking for those scattered martial artists?
He didn't know anything else, but among this group of people, the most powerful one was just the young man who was talking to him. But he was only at Yuan Tian stage two, what kind of big waves could he set off?
A light flashed in Yan Ge's eyes, and he said sternly, "now the second war between the human race and the god is imminent, the situation is precarious. Once we are defeated, the result may be even more miserable than the war between the human race and the insect. And it is said that the King of God, Huang Bei Ying, is about to come out. If the major forces can't elect a leader before she returns to the human world, then no one will be able to resist her power, and we will definitely lose! "
"Huang Bei Ying?" Chu Yunsheng vaguely remembered this name. He thought for a while and said, "in that case, since the war is already coming, why are we still fighting? Why don't we quickly elect a leader?"
Yan Ge had heard Yuan Xuejian's story before. He only knew that Chu Yunsheng and the others had been hiding in the forest for a long time, so they didn't know much about the world. So he was not surprised. He sighed and said, "if it is that easy, the cultivation propagator would not have disappeared in the first place. In this world, people's hearts are unpredictable. Now the situation is getting more and more urgent. Several surviving cities in the north have been destroyed by the monsters controlled by the divine power. None of the people in the cities survived. The global war is coming soon. So it is said that the cultivation propagator is also forced to avoid the major forces this time and choose another successor."
