Liang Hongzhuang looked at Su Li, his face expressionless, as if he was a dead man. He asked, "Why?"
Silence. No one could answer this question.
He smiled bitterly and said, "I thought that the laws of heaven would always come in cycles. It's not that I won't avenge you, it's just that it's not time yet. It's just that it's a little late, but there will always be a result. Who would have thought that there's no such thing as the Heavenly Dao? Why can a person like you live so well? Now that you're about to die, another person like him pops up."
Chen Chang Sheng lowered his head and didn't look at him. The hand that held the short sword slightly trembled.
"How exactly did our Liang Clan offend you? What benefits did the Tianliang Chen clan give you? More than ten years ago, you wanted to exterminate my Liang Family! "
Liang Hongzhuang's laughter grew louder and louder. His blood flowed faster and faster, and his voice grew more mournful. By the time he finished speaking, the question had already turned into a roar. It was the roar of an injured beast, and it was filled with rage, unwillingness, despair, and pain. It directly pierced into the deepest part of the soul of the person who heard it.
Chen Changsheng lowered his head even more, his face even paler. His hand trembled more and more, as if he would not be able to hold onto the hilt of his sword in the next moment. He did not want to look at Liang Hongzhuang, who was already in a state of madness, and he also did not dare to look at Su Li. This was because he was very worried that if he were to look at it, he would feel irrepressible regret for what he had done, and thus fall into pain and struggle.
Hearing Liang Hongzhuang's sorrowful and indignant questioning and seeing Chen Changsheng with his head lowered, Su Li still remained expressionless — what had already happened could not be changed, so whether or not he regretted it was meaningless. There was no need to reflect on it. Even if there was, it could only happen in his heart. He absolutely disdained explaining anything to the world.
This was the kind of person he was. If it was in the past, no matter how miserable Liang Hongzhuang was, he would leave without batting an eyelid. Today, his expression did not change, but for some reason, he said a few words before leaving. Or was it because Chen Chang Sheng's head was hanging too low and his hand holding the sword was shaking too much?
"How many people and clans did your Liang Clan's ancestors kill in the south when they were emperors?"
Su Li looked at Liang Hongzhuang and said expressionlessly, "As for exterminating your entire Liang clan … if I really wanted to do that, how could you still be alive today? How could Liang Wangsun still be alive?"
His mood suddenly became a little irritated. He looked at Chen Chang Sheng and said coldly, "Why are you standing here and not leaving? Imitating loneliness or pretending to be desperate? Don't think that you have the right to lecture me just because you saved my life. "
After saying this, he walked towards the barren mountain.
After a few days of recuperation, he was still heavily injured, but he could walk slowly.
The two furry deer ate their fill of grass and returned to the field. Seeing Su Li walking off into the distance and Chen Changsheng still standing with his head lowered, they seemed somewhat perplexed, not knowing who to follow.
Chen Chang Sheng raised his head and looked at Liang Hongzhuang. He wanted to say something, but in the end, he only said two words, "Sorry."
He finally said these two heavy words, but his mood didn't become a bit more relaxed because of this. He reached out to grab the reins of the two furry deer's necks, silently chasing after that somewhat lonely figure.
On the other side of the barren mountain was the south.
Liang Hongzhuang could no longer support himself and fell to the ground. Looking at the two gradually leaving, he yelled in pain, "Do you really think you can return to the south? If you continue to follow him, you will also die! "
Chen Chang Sheng didn't turn his head back. He lowered his head and continued walking silently.
Su Li walked very slowly. It didn't take long for Liang Hongzhuang to catch up.
The furry deer bent its front knees and prostrated itself on the ground. He helped Su Li up.
From start to finish, there was no conversation.
… …
… …
After passing through this barren mountain, they crossed over two other barren mountains. The furry deer stopped by a grassy slope that was as green as a carpet.
Chen Chang Sheng dismounted from the back of the deer and rushed to the side of the road. He bent down and began to vomit.
Su Li looked at him and said mockingly, "That guy didn't die, so what's there to vomit about."
Chen Chang Sheng waved his hand. He wanted to explain, but he couldn't suppress the discomfort in his chest and began to vomit again.
This battle with Liang Hongzhuang was the first time he had directly and single-handedly defeated a Star Condensation expert. If this battle were not so ordinary and unremarkable, so understated, perhaps it would have been even more worthy of its place in history.
However, the price he had paid was not ordinary. A battle of surpassing cultivation levels was naturally not as understated as it seemed on the surface. Under the pressure of Liang Hongzhuang's Star Domain, he had also suffered very heavy injuries. All the bones in his body felt like they were about to split apart. Previously, his body had been trembling the entire time. That was because of his emotions, but also because his body really could not hold on any longer.
However, the true injuries were not in his body, but in his mind.
He did not have Xu Yourong's talent in calculations, nor did he have a sufficiently powerful bloodline. He had only just started on the path of learning the Intellectual Sword, and now he had to forcefully use the Intellectual Sword to meet the enemy. Moreover, he had to use seven swords in one move. This was not something he could currently endure. The large amount of information that could even be described as a sea, or even as vast and boundless as the starry sky, directly squeezed out all his mind, causing his sea of consciousness to tremble until it was on the verge of collapse.
His spiritual sense had been completely consumed by those seven swords, and his sea of consciousness had become empty.
The body of a cultivator was a boat in the sea of consciousness. Right now, his sea of consciousness had dried up. That boat was constantly falling in the empty space, forever without end. This was a very terrifying process. He felt that everything around him, the barren hills and grassy slopes, were constantly spinning and changing. The azure sky seemed to be currently falling over his head. This made him feel incomparably vexed, uncomfortable, dizzy, painful, and weak. It was like he had continuously drunk wine for seven days and seven nights. That wine was strong wine, and even bad wine.
This sort of feeling was extremely painful, extremely uncomfortable. Moreover, this was a matter of the mind, and there was simply no way to expel it from the body.
He vomited out all the roasted meat and wild fruits he had eaten last night and this morning, and he also vomited out his stomach juice. In the end, all that was left was something that looked like clear water. Even when he could not vomit anything out, he still did not stop. He began to retch, as if he wanted to vomit until the seas dried up and the rocks crumbled, until the end of time. Only by doing this could he express his attitude towards this world.
Su Li looked at the youth vomiting on the side of the road and said nothing.
After some time, he used the Yellow Paper Umbrella as a staff and slowly walked behind Chen Changsheng. He slowly raised the Yellow Paper Umbrella and struck the back of Chen Changsheng's neck.
With a thud, Chen Chang Sheng slowly fell to the ground. Before he collapsed, he used the last of his strength to ensure that when he fell backwards, he would not be stained by the filth that he had vomited out.
However, he did not faint. His eyes were still open, looking at the sky. He was in incomparable pain and extremely weak.
Su Li indifferently said, "If you're not willing to faint, there's a chance that you'll go crazy."
In that strike just now, he had used up all the strength that he had secretly accumulated over the past few days. He originally thought that it might not be enough to kill the enemy, but it could be used to save someone. However, he did not think that this youth's body would be so tough.
Chen Changsheng opened his mouth like a fish on the verge of death. He weakly said, "Senior, there's a blade of grass on the mountain."
"You're not thinking of writing a poem before you die, are you?" Su Li said, "Don't be like this, it makes people uncomfortable."
Chen Changsheng raised his hand with difficulty and pointed at the blade of grass. "That's the Hundred Days Intoxication."
Just as Su Li had said, if he continued like this, his sea of consciousness really might rupture, and he might directly die or become an idiot. Moreover, the most crucial thing was that right now, he really was in a very uncomfortable, very painful state. If he could guarantee that his vision would not be blurry right now, that he could clearly see the white clouds in the blue sky, he would definitely remove the needles at the first moment and knock himself out. However, he could not do it.
Fortunately, when he fell, he saw a blade of grass that could knock him out.
Su Li understood what he meant. He plucked the blade of grass, and somewhat roughly tore it into pieces with his hands, stuffing them into his mouth.
Chen Changsheng finally closed his eyes. His face was still pale, and his eyelashes trembled slightly.
Su Li breathed a few times tiredly, then sat down cross-legged. He glanced at the silent and uninhabited barren mountain, and his right hand rested on the handle of the umbrella.
After a while, Chen Changsheng suddenly opened his eyes, and looked somewhat absent-mindedly at the sky.
Su Li's eyelids drooped slightly. "Still not willing to faint?"
Chen Changsheng said tiredly, "The medicinal effect isn't that fast.
Su Li said, "Then shut your mouth, close your eyes, and wait."
Chen Changsheng said with difficulty, "But I have something I want to say to Senior."
Su Li was silent for a while, then expressionlessly said, "Release."
"Senior … in the future, it's better if you kill less people."
After saying this, Chen Changsheng felt that he had finally done what he had to do. His mind relaxed, he closed his eyes and fell asleep.
