An Ascender
Outside a simple village.
A young man in tattered clothes had a lifeless look in his eyes. His eyes were lifeless as he was led over by two guard-like men.
"Xue Qi, this is for your village," the guard called out.
The guard shouted a few words, and not long after, a young man who looked less than 30 years old walked out of the village. He was clothed in sackcloth, with two patches at the cuffs.
It was obvious that this young man lived a poor life. It could even be said that he was in dire straits.
"Something's wrong. Why would an ascender be sent to our village?" Xue Qi scratched his head in confusion. When he saw the young man next to the guard, his face instantly darkened.
"I knew it. Why would good stuff be sent to our village?"
Xue Qi couldn't help but curse inwardly. His slightly hopeful heart gradually calmed down.
"Hurry up, this is the last one. Hurry up and give it a stamp. We're in a hurry to go drink."
The guard furrowed his brows in displeasure. Xue Qi nodded, quickly walked over, and spoke in a somewhat speechless manner.
"I say, sirs, although our village has fallen a bit, there's no need to send all sorts of repulsive people here. Look at this brat, what's he like now … He can't even do the most basic farm work. Food is so tight right now … "
Slap.
The guard slapped Xue Qi's head and scolded, "You talk too much.
It's already good enough that we're giving you a share. Hurry up, we're in a hurry. "
"Fine. Then can I ask about this brat's background?" Xue Qi shrugged helplessly. One of the two guards said, "I saw him on the Ascension Spiritual Formation. He should be an ascender …"
"You really know how to joke," Xue Qi shrugged helplessly.
Xue Qi pursed his lips. After all, he was the village chief, so he should have some knowledge, alright? Two years ago, an expert with the strength of a False Earth Immortal ascended from the village next to theirs. That heroic appearance …
If it wasn't for the fact that the village chief gave his woman away as a concubine, his village wouldn't have been suppressed so badly.
False Earth Immortal. That's the strength that an ascender should have.
Look at this guy, he's just an idiot!
"Who's joking with you? Do you think I'm that bored? Let me tell you, he was assigned here because of our many years of friendship. Maybe you've picked up a treasure. "
The guard smiled faintly. When he said this, even he himself did not believe it.
When they first saw this ascender, the two of them walked up to him respectfully, but in the end … they saw an idiot.
Who knew how this kid ascended to the Immortal Realm.
"Thank you."
Xue Qi couldn't help but twitch his mouth. Friendship … It's probably because the other villages didn't want him, so they sent him here.
He took out a square stamp from his bosom and placed it on the golden ranking board in the guard's hand.
"Alright."
Xue Qi put away the golden board and left. He squatted on the ground and stared at the young man in front of him.
"Brat, give me some hope. Tell me you're just pretending to be crazy!"
There was no response.
"I f * cking know."
Xue Qi rolled his eyes speechlessly. Not long later, a girl wearing a floral dress walked out of the village with a white wildflower in her hand.
"Brother, what are you doing here?"
"There's an ascender sent to our village," Xue Qi rolled his eyes. Xue Qi rolled his eyes. Hearing this, the woman hurriedly ran over and giggled, "Wow, there's actually an ascender coming to our village. I have to take a look …"
When she got closer and saw the young man, the girl blinked and circled around him twice.
"How strange!"
"It's strange if it's not strange. Don't think about it. It's impossible for good stuff to be sent to our village. Seriously, we have another mouth to feed. "
Zheng Qi sighed and shook his head. He grabbed the young man's shoulder and said to the girl.
"Let's go. Bring him to our house. I'm worried about leaving him alone. I'll put him in the house beside yours. Take care of him when you have nothing to do! "
"Okay," the girl nodded with a smile.
The fact that an ascender had settled in the village made everyone in the village smile. They all wanted to see the glory of the ascender, but Zheng Qi only smiled bitterly and shook his head.
He had purposely spread the news. The guards had indeed been here, so there was no doubt that an ascender had settled in. He had spread the news in order to instill fear in the neighboring villages.
However, he couldn't let outsiders know who the ascender was. Otherwise, the other villages might suppress their village even more.
"Let me tell you, Ye-zi. I want you to be immersed in despair and hatred. Do you think … she's enough? "
"How pitiful. How does it feel to watch the woman you love die?"
"Ye-zi, I can only say that you're lucky. I'll wait for you to take revenge. See you in the Three Realms. "
"I really look forward to it. I wonder how much you'll grow with hatred in your heart."
"Live on with hatred, hahahaha …"
The scenes played in his mind like a movie, and not long after, Old Man Lin's words before he left rang out in his mind again.
"It's been hard on you, but you're the only hope of the Modern Realm. I'll leave the demons to you."
Phew.
Color gradually returned to his lifeless eyes as he sat on the bed and clenched his fists.
"Su Yiyun, wait for me."
"Ye Zichen, you're awake?" A comforting voice sounded out in Ye Zichen's mind. Not long later, Xuan-Yuan Xiang walked out of the simple room with a faint smile. "I thought you would collapse because of that."
"Almost," Ye Zichen scratched his head. Ye Zichen scratched his head a few times, then said with a hint of self-mockery. "I really want to sink down just like that, but … I feel like living on with a grudge isn't bad either. People have to have a goal."
"You want to take revenge?"
"What else!?"
Ye Zichen's gaze instantly darkened. He snorted as he looked out the window with a sneer.
He snorted as he looked out the window, "I can't just let Yumei's matter go. Su Yiyun … I won't give him any chance the next time I see him. Since he likes to watch revenge dramas so much, then I'll let him watch them. "
Xuan-Yuan Xiang frowned at Ye Zichen's reply.
She could feel the intense hatred in his voice. She was very afraid that Ye Zichen would lose himself in his desire for revenge.
But in the end, she was just an artifact spirit. Her master's sword was her path.
"Ai, oh yeah, what is this place?"
Ye Zichen retracted his gloomy expression and looked around the room curiously. From the layout of the room, it didn't seem like the Modern Realm …
The Modern Realm couldn't be so backward!
What's more, it seemed like a small village from outside the window …
Xuan-Yuan Xiang followed his gaze and looked over, then shook her head with her brows raised.
