Outside the abandoned factory.
"By the way …" Xia He was following Liu Xiaojiang and Shen Chong. She noticed that the two of them were about to leave, so she couldn't help but ask with a puzzled expression.
"You clearly didn't say that before. Why are you hiding this kind of thing today? With the Taoist Master of Mount Longhu and Zhao Fangxu of the company, why would the higher-ups deliberately target us …?"
"It's a good thing to have a sense of crisis …" Liu Xiaojiang knew what Xia He wanted to say, so he slowed down his pace and waited for Xia He and Shen Chong to come to his side.
"Besides, among the people we met today, how many people do you think are truly unscrupulous?"
"… Grandmother Jin Feng?" Xia He thought carefully and said.
"Mei Jinfeng clearly doesn't agree with the idea of Quan Sheng. She also thinks that Quan Sheng, except for Quan Sheng, is a bunch of hopeless villains … but she still hangs out with Quan Sheng," Liu Xiaojiang said and shook his head.
"No, even if Mei Jinfeng herself has never noticed it, to say that she's unscrupulous … is too far-fetched."
"After all, whether it was back then or before she went to the Tang Sect now, her purpose has always been very clear … isn't it?"
"Even today …"
Liu Xiaojiang remembered what Mei Jinfeng said about Zhang Chulan's words to her before. Those words seemed to lead her to "love me, love my dog". He couldn't help but smile and shake his head again.
"Grandmother Jin Feng, what she pursues in her life may not be Quan Sheng, but the same as most other cultivators who don't have any special ideas. What she pursues … is the quietness that ordinary people don't have."
"Back then, when she was by Wu Gensheng's side, she had an indescribable feeling. Perhaps even she thought that it was the so-called feelings of love. But in reality … Did she ever express any obvious feelings for Wu Gensheng?"
"The reason why Grandmother Jin Feng is absent-minded now is not because she knows that Quan Sheng once married and had children, but because in her inherent understanding over the years, this quietness is something that only Quan Sheng has. Feng Yao … is completely denying her thoughts."
"Mei Jinfeng's previous path was to follow Quan Sheng and pursue the quietness that she longed for …"
"Mei Jinfeng's current path, under the active guidance of Zhang Chulan, is very likely to become Feng Bao Bao, who is very similar to Quan Sheng …"
"However, this is not because Feng Baobao might be the biological daughter of the Rootless. Instead, it is because Feng Baobao also possesses the serenity that most living beings do not possess when the Rootless was born …"
"Tranquility?" Shen Chong pushed up his glasses in confusion. "What's so good about this thing? Is it worth it for someone to chase after her like this? "
"Do you know about Warlocks?" Liu Xiaojiang suddenly asked.
..... Was the king like that too? Why did you suddenly mention Quan Sheng? "Shen Chong was stunned.
"If it's an ordinary Warlock, then it's fine …" Liu Xiaojiang slowly explained.
"These guys are sometimes similar to Jianghu swindlers. Although they do have some skills, they can't even tell what they have done and what they can do …"
"But if it's a powerful Warlock, like the Marquis Faction … or the well-known figures of the Magic Faction, they won't be satisfied with this situation. They will inevitably walk further on the path of magic, and magic … most of them will also involve the Occult Faction."
"Out of ten strange methods, nine of them are crazy …"
"These Quan Sheng are crazy because of the word 'quietness'. In fact, not only Quan Sheng, but almost all magic methods in the world also need to practice Quietness. Once they enter the door, they will also face the challenge of the Interior …"
"Joy of Leaving Life — the first time I experienced the feeling of quietness."
"Joy of Leaving Life — the feeling of quietness is gradually strengthening."
"Joy of Leaving Life — with the advancement of one's own Quietness, one can finally experience the pleasure brought by quietness."
"Peace of Abandonment — even the pleasure brought by quietness has been abandoned. It's a kind of perfect state of emptiness."
"In the world, except for 'Magic', the requirements for Quietness are not high. As long as one enters the initial stage of Joy of Leaving Life, it's enough to experience the feeling of quietness …"
"Of course, if one can practice in a state of Abandonment and Quietness, it's definitely the most perfect situation for people who practice magic or other martial arts. It's just that very few people pursue such an extremely difficult thing."
"After all, even if the practice state is not perfect, it doesn't mean that one is a person without talent …"
"Warlocks, on the other hand, are different. Their spells have a higher requirement for meditation because almost all of the strange spells used by Warlocks are made use of the loopholes in the Heavenly Axiom. At the very least, they need to be 'unmoved' …"
"Because …"
"Quan Sheng has a special cultivation method of Quietness. As soon as they start, they will enter the stage of Leaving Life — Joy of Leaving Life — Joy of Leaving Life — Joy of Leaving Life — Joy of Leaving Life — Joy of Leaving Life — Joy of Leaving Life — Joy of Leaving Life …"
"In that state, people will experience a lot of indescribable pleasure. They will even achieve everything they want in the Interior and become omnipotent … In the end, they will be addicted to the pleasure and can't extricate themselves from it. They will enter the so-called 'Greedy Zen' state."
"Addicted to the quietness of the Interior and reluctant to leave this feeling, even among Quan Sheng who knows this and has corresponding training, it's not a rare situation … Let alone other ordinary Qi Practitioners who have low requirements for Quietness."
"Silence can bring pleasure to people. It can make people feel that they are omnipotent …"
"People who practice Qi are usually very sensitive. Even if they have never experienced peace and quiet, after witnessing the peace and quiet of others, they will instinctively want to experience more of this feeling. The more they wish to have peace and quiet, the stronger this desire will be."
"In addition, those congenital Qi Practitioners who don't even know what quietness is, once they realize the 'benefits' of quietness, they will easily flock to it …"
"If the reason why Granny Jin Feng paid attention to Feng Bao was that Feng Bao was very similar to Quan Sheng in this matter, then it means that Quan Sheng at least overcame the stage of Li Xi Miao Le and reached a level of quietness that others can't reach."
"Under such circumstances, coupled with the fact that the rootless being was both good and evil, it was quite normal for a little girl who was born with Qi but didn't know Qi and didn't understand the Dao to be easily attracted."
"What about you?" After Xia He understood Mei Jinfeng's matter, she couldn't help but look at Liu Xiaojiang with deep curiosity again.
"You're so powerful that you can annihilate the Wang Family all by yourself … What's the extent of your tranquility?"
"It must be joy …" Liu Xiaojiang shook his head and said.
"Quietness is an extremely special thing. It can't be used as the basis to measure a person's strength. Besides, I'm not a magician. Even though I have some understanding of algebra on the mountain, I'm not very good at this kind of method that requires the use of loopholes in the Way of Heaven."
At this time, Shen Chong recalled Liu Xiaojiang's words again. He couldn't help but push up his glasses with a strange expression.
"So, what you're trying to say is that among all the people we've met today, only Xia He and I … are the kind of Mutants who have no morals?"
"Xia Liuqing, no matter what you did in the past, the moment you met Granny Jin Feng, your path was destined," Liu Xiaojiang said.
"To Sherlie, the most important thing isn't Rootless Rebirth, the future of the entire organization, or the eight mystical skills that can cause chaos. It's Granny Golden Phoenix …" Sherlie's eyes widened in shock.
"Besides, I even suspect that when Sherlie went to Mount Longhu with Quan Sheng, he was willing to help 'test' Feng Bao because of Granny Jin Feng. It's because Feng Bao reminded him of Quan Sheng's most important skill, Granny Jin Feng."
"Haha, Sherlie is an interesting person. Back then, the ferocious Ling actually turned into an old bootlicker after meeting Granny Golden Phoenix …"
"Tu Junfang …"
"Although he's not a good guy, at least he's smart. The more he knows, the less interested he is in the eight strange skills. Instead, he's more willing to continue his research on the Three Demon Sects and try to restore the complete inheritance of the Three Demon Sects …"
"I guess the reason why he's so close to Lu Liang now is that he found more possibilities of the Three Demon Sects on Lu Liang. Perhaps Lu Liang is willing to help him study the Three Corpses for some reason …"
"Speaking of Lu Liang …"
Liu Xiaojiang paused for a moment and said, "Although a pitiful person must have some hateful aspects, the things that are easy to hate about him are just cowardice and avoidance in human nature. These are not considered a big crime no matter how you look at it …"
"Besides, after escaping from Lui Village, the direction of this guy has changed. At least, he doesn't only run away like before. He understands that he has to pay the corresponding price for what he wants to know. After that … he just needs to wait and see for the time being."
"When necessary, he may become an indispensable and important person …"
"As for the hero of Quan Sheng Organisation …"
Speaking of this, a rare smile flashed across his eyes, and he said,
"Old Ding has never needed others to guide him. Maybe the moment he made up his mind to become stronger when he was a child, his temperament … has been ahead of many Qi-training people."
"No matter how powerful he is, his temperament is enough to be called a 'hero' even in ancient times."
"A man with talent, who knows what to do and what not to do, and who still has morality in his heart. If this guy was in ancient times … he may become a heroic figure like a hero."
"So …"
"You're right. At least among these people, only the two of you are the ones who need to be helped …"
"…" Shen Chong.
"…" Xia He.
"As for the others …" Liu Xiaojiang glanced at the two speechless people with a smile, and said, "Except for Granny Jin Feng and Old Xia, who may be in danger in the future because of Xu Xin and the Tang Sect's arrangement, no one needs me to tell them what to do in the future."
"And no one will choose to give up all the ideas they persist in because of me, the Sect Leader …"
"Haha …" Xia He couldn't help but tease him.
"Yo, I didn't expect you to be so self-aware."
"Cultivators are cultivating themselves. It's a process of internal exploration …" Liu Xiaojiang said indifferently.
"I'm not like the two of you. Is it … difficult to be self-aware?"
"… Is this a personal attack?" Xia He curled her lips and pointed at Liu Xiaojiang. She turned to Shen Chong and said.
"Shen Chong, he didn't even hide when he scolded us. Don't you have any opinion? You were the one who started the fight …"
"… Cough!" Shen Chong glanced at Xia He unhappily. "If you can't win against him, then don't look for trouble. Don't vent your anger on me every time you're frustrated … Okay?"
"I'm not your family's little master who can be bullied easily …"
"… Shen Chong, you've become more capable recently, haven't you? You actually dare to talk back to me!" Xia He immediately exploded at the mention of Zhang Lingyu.
Seeing this …
Shen Chong quickly ran past Xia He to the other side of Liu Xiaojiang. He used Liu Xiaojiang to separate Xia He, this crazy woman, and said,
"Don't do to others what you don't want done to you. This saying … is really true!"
"Shen Chong!!!" Xia He obviously didn't have double standards.
"Ahem …" Liu Xiaojiang saw that Xia He seemed to want to teach Shen Chong a lesson, so he immediately put his hand to his mouth and coughed softly.
"Alright, don't go overboard. I only have the two of you to help me now. In the future, when it comes to the other members, I obviously can't count on those people to help me …"
After saying that, perhaps because he had seen what a murderous gaze was, he had no choice but to open his mouth and add another sentence.
"Ahem, of course, as long as it doesn't affect the operation, Shen Chong joking about the matter between you and Lingyu … is indeed too much!"
"Yes, I still have something to do here. I need to contact Chairman Zhao. Xia He … you should know what to do, right?"
"What do you think?" Xia He said with a smile that was like a flower.
"Uh …" Seeing this, Liu Xiaojiang immediately quickened his pace, leaving the stunned Shen Chong on the spot. In a flash, he disappeared from the sight of the two of them.
Seeing this …
Shen Chong looked in the direction Liu Xiaojiang left, then turned his head mechanically to look at Xia He and said with a smile,
"Ha … Haha … He really knows how to joke. What's too much? With our relationship, what kind of joke can't he make? Don't you think so … Xia He?"
However …
What greeted Shen Chong's smiling face was a clenched fist …
