This old man was originally a blade of grass in the World Sea, born amidst Chaos.
The Chaos he was born into wasnāt what Chen Changāan understood as primordial Chaos.
It was full of everlasting substances, a place where the group of Immortals contended.
In simple terms, itās what people commonly refer to as ancient times.
However, he was born in the Immortal Domain at the end of the ancient era.
Active before the Prison God Elephant used its body to suppress Hell.
As Shen Xuzi had mentioned, not long after his birth, a great upheaval had emerged.
An unprecedented war enveloped the entire Chaos Sea,
Every day in the boundless World Sea witnessed supreme entities fighting chaotically.
That conflict made heaven colorless, and the World Sea was completely turned over.
The fairyland where he resided was also affected during that time.
A random ray of light cut it away from the World Sea, leading to endless drift.
By the time it stabilized, it was already in this world.
Later on, due to its unique nature, it gradually formed a protective color.
And then it developed into a secluded geomantic site,
Which is now known as the Taixuan Geomantic Site.
As for him, from drifting until now, he had survived in the Taixuan Geomantic Site for an unknown number of years.
All these endless years, he could not go anywhere else.
Each day he could only stay in this space.
At first, it was bearable, after all, he was just a blade of grass,
So loneliness and solitude didnāt exist for him.
But later, as this area was continuously discovered by people,
He gradually learned about the customs of the outside world.
As the saying goes, ignorance isnāt a fear, knowing too much is.
Upon learning about these so-called prosperous worlds, the old fairygrass that had been silent for countless years couldnāt stand it any longer.
He didnāt want to keep staying here; he wanted to go out and see the magnificent world!
Thus, he started planning.
However, not everyone can enter into this place.
From when Shen Xuzi began planning until now, only two people were able to enter here within a span of millions of years.
One was a woman, and the other was Chen Changāan.
Originally, when the woman came in, Shen Xuzi wanted to take her body.
But unfortunately, after some trials, he found that he couldnāt possibly defeat her.
To save his life, he had to give up his plan.
He didnāt even dare to show his face!
Consequently, he had to watch her take away half of his medicine garden.
Originally, after this incident, Shen Xuzi was going to give up his plans.
But ironically, Chen Changāan entered right at this time.
How could Shen Xuzi possibly give up on someone as naĆÆve as Chen Changāan?
So a play began.
What Shen Xuzi didnāt expect was that he had once again misjudged.
Not only did he fail to seize the body, but he was also pinned down by this lad.
After contemplating for a while, Chen Changāan turned to Shen Xuzi and said,
"Shen Xuzi, huh? I can spare your life."
"However, what can you bring to me?"
Shen Xuzi was taken aback, asking in disbelief,
"What? Lad...ah no, my lord Chen, you wonāt kill me?"
Chen Changāan nodded: "If you prove your value, I can spare you."
"Thank you for sparing my life, my lord."
Upon hearing Chen Changāanās decision to spare him, Shen Xuzi knelt and thanked him.
The flattery in his words was unparalleled, a stark contrast to his previous wise and dignified image.
There was no dignity to speak of.
However, Shen Xuzi didnāt care about any of that.
Being able to survive was better than anything else!
As the saying goes, the longer you live, the more fear of death you have.
Those who have lived for a million years like Shen Xuzi are even more afraid of death.
Therefore, after being captured by Chen Changāan, Shen Xuzi gave in.
Only those who can bend and stretch are true men!
Chen Changāan waved his hand to interrupt Shen Xuzi, saying, "Thatās enough, old man, stop flattery."
"Letās focus on our business."
He knew why this old guy was acting so out of character.
Part of it was because he was ignorant, the other part was his fear of death.
Of course, the most important thing was that this old man himself was an eccentric old man.
That dignified posture before was just an act.
Next, Chen Changāan and Shen Xuzi signed a contract.
Chen Changāan would not kill Shen Xuzi, and even take him out,
But in exchange, Shen Xuzi would have to serve Chen Changāan for five hundred years without any compensation,
Additionally, when Chen Changāan needed Shen Xuziās original body - the Shen Xuzi Fairygrass - Shen Xuzi cannot refuse.
Of course, Chen Changāan promised not to harm his foundation.
He would only need some roots at most.
Moreover, everything in this space belonged to Chen Changāan,
It was the compensation for Shen Xuziās attempt to seize his body.
With regards to this, although Shen Xuzi really wanted to hit someone, he had to agree,
He had no choice because the situation was stronger than people.
The contract was bound by Chen Changāanās spiritual power,
If Shen Xuzi violated any of the terms, Chen Changāan could take his life in an instant.
Thus, Chen Changāan not only gained a fairy grass,
But also got a strong superhero for free!
Chen Changāan wasnāt sure how strong Shen Xuzi was, but he should be no different from any Ninth Stage in this world.
"Letās go, weāre leaving."
Once everything was prepared, Chen Changāan took Shen Xuzi and they left the space.
"Is this the outside world? Waka waka waka, I have come out, hahaha!"
"My divine power suppresses all ages, dominates the world, holds all realms in my hand, my Dao is the world of mortals."
