Chapter 753
When Shui Yuncong left with his gloomy expression, Long Chen suddenly laughed, âIâm rich, Iâm rich!â
Long Chen had originally been planning on trading . The only reason he had brought up so many shortcomings was to con Shui Yuncong out of more money . Guo Ran had said that he never had enough money for his use .
âYouâre both a pair of old foxes,â sighed Shui Wuhen helplessly .
Previously, she had really thought Long Chen had been unwilling to trade . But now she realized that even she had been tricked by his act .
âHehe, that old fox isnât anything good . This Heavenly Water Pearl is something Shui Guanzhi had to have, but I also needed that World Piercing Jade Talisman . Iâve heard that the Immemorial Path is a place where the Eastern Wastelandâs peak experts will gather . It really will be very dangerous for Meng Qi!â said Long Chen .
Shui Wuhen nodded . âThe danger of the Immemorial Path far surpasses that Jiuli secret realm you entered previously . That secret realm is merely a speck of dust left behind by the destruction of a world from the ancient era .
âBut the Immemorial Path is a true minor world . There is a whole new set of laws there . It is rumored that the Immemorial Path possesses the foundation for a cultivator to become an immortal or god .
âOf course, the Immemorial Path has long since crumbled . It is a severed path that no one can reconnect . So no more gods or immortals ever appeared in the Martial Heaven Continent . However, the Immemorial Path is its own world, so you have to be careful . Not only do you have to be careful of the Righteous and Corrupt experts, but you have to be careful of experts from other races!â
âOther races?â asked Long Chen .
Shui Wuhen solemnly said, âYes . The Eastern Wasteland might be a desolate place, but there are still countless sects and hundreds of races . Some of those races are even stronger than our Xuantian Dao Sect!â
âReally? Theyâre even stronger than the Xuantian Dao Sect?â Long Chen was shocked .
âYes . More precisely, theyâre stronger than our Eastern Wastelandâs branch sect . Our branch sectâs power is a drop in the ocean compared to the head sect in the Central Plains .
âAs for those races, there are some who have inherited bloodlines from the immortal era . They rarely interact with the rest of the world . In order to keep the purity of their bloodline, they never marry outside of their race .
âThere are many races, and itâs very easy to recognize them . If you can avoid it, donât provoke them . Their clans are very protective, in addition to being domineering and unreasonable!â warned Shui Wuhen .
âAs long as they donât provoke me, I naturally wonât be so bored as to provoke them . But if they try to bully me, well, you know my temperament . If itâs bearable then Iâll bear it, but if itâs not, then thereâs no way around it!â said Long Chen .
Long Chen never considered himself to be someone who provoked others . But when others provoked him, he definitely wouldnât retreat .
The cultivation path was one where if you compromised, your enemies would continue to force you back . If you wanted dignity, then you had to reveal your fangs to show others that you werenât prey .
âThose races possess ancient bloodlines, and they inherit special abilities . You have to be careful about them . However, itâs not the Righteous path, the Corrupt path, or those races that are the most terrifying . The most terrifying ones are the aboriginals of the Immortal Path!â Terror flashed across Shui Wuhenâs eyes .
âThere are people still living there?â Long Chen was stunned .
âYes . That place is a world that exists beside our world . It is said that those people are the earliest protectors of the Immemorial Path . But later, for some unknown reason, the Immemorial Path was destroyed and it became ownerless, becoming a separate entity from the Martial Heaven Continent .
âThe Immemorial Path is said to be the foundation to becoming an immortal or god, so countless cultivators wish to explore those mysteries inside . Every thousand years, experts will forcibly open the Immemorial Path and send their disciples in as a trial .
âDue to its destruction, the Immemorial Path was turned into quite a few separate sections . The Eastern Wasteland has an opening to one of those sections . Be careful, because when I entered the Immemorial Path, I was in a group of seven people, and we ended up running into an ambush from the aboriginals . As a result, I was the only one to escape with my life .
âThe aboriginals treat the disciples undergoing the trial as invaders, as enemies . At the same time, they are also viewed as prey, and so they will slaughter you the second they see you . â
Shui Wuhen fell back into her memories of back then . That had truly been a desperate struggle . Those aboriginals were too vicious .
âIt seems that Shui Yuncongâs World Piercing Jade Talisman actually came at a perfect time . If I couldnât find some powerful Magical Beasts, I feel like Meng Qi shouldnât take on this danger,â said Long Chen . A Beast Tamer without powerful Magical Beasts was too weak .
âOther than those threats, the Immemorial Path itself is filled with dangers . You absolutely canât be careless!â warned Shui Wuhen .
âBig sister, donât worry . Iâm not the kind of person who would play with my life,â laughed Long Chen .
Leaving Shui Wuhenâs residence, he returned to his own room . What Long Chen hadnât expected was for there to be a guest waiting for him . That guest was currently chatting with Tang Wan-er .
âSister Biluo?â
âOh, didnât you call me wife back then? Do you refuse to own up to the truth?â laughed Hua Biluo .
âNo, you definitely canât joke around like this . It might be fatal . â Long Chen hastily waved his hand . In front of an easily jealous girl like Tang Wan-er, how could she make such a joke? He wouldnât be able to endure the cost to his life expectancy .
âJust look at your foolish expression . Do you think she would be so unreasonable? Sister Biluo has already explained what happened between you two to me . For you to be this nervous, does that mean you have a guilty conscience?â Tang Wan-er rolled her eyes .
Oh, Tang Wan-er actually understood what had happened without getting jealous? How rare . Long Chen smiled toward Hua Biluo . âHow are things with your family?â
âHua Jinrong is dead . I personally killed her! As a result, I become the future inheritor of the family . I came here to find you and pull you into my Hua family,â said Hua Biluo .
Long Chen was startled, but then seeing the slight curl at the corner of her mouth, he realized she was joking . âThen what about the Immemorial Path?â
âYes, thatâs what I came to talk to you about . I wonât be participating in the Immemorial Path . Iâve also given up on the struggle of the martial path,â said Hua BIluo .
âWhy is that?â Both Long Chen and Tang Wan-er were startled .
âBecause Iâm tired . After what happened this time, Iâve found that I am just a leaf floating on an angry sea . Thatâs what the cultivation path is . Nothing is within my control . But if I withdraw from the martial path and just calmly focus on being a family head, Iâll be able to live a relaxed life . Iâm a Celestial, and once I reach Sea Expansion, then with my familyâs Treasure item maintaining our karmic luck, I can live a carefree life . â Hua Biluo smiled a content smile .
But Long Chen and Tang Wan-er couldnât help feeling a bit disappointed . It seemed they had lost a companion .
âThen Iâll have to congratulate you . From now on, youâll be free,â said Long Chen with a smile .
âThereâs no way around it . Compared to you two, Iâm lacking talent, as well as a certain confidence . And the thing Iâm most lacking in is luck . Wan-er has it good, and Meng Qi also has it good . Theyâre both your women . But youâve only ever treated me as a friend!â said Hua Biluo with a bit of disappointment .
âCough, isnât is good being friends?â said Long Chen awkwardly .
âAlright, letâs not talk about that . I just came here to tell you this so you wonât worry about me when the Immemorial Path opens . Other than that, remember to go see the wife you snatched away when you have time . Perhaps you could leave something behind for me? You understand!â said Hua Biluo . Although she did her best to act natural, her face reddened slightly .
After sending off Hua Biluo, Long Chen couldnât help feeling uneasy inside . A genius that had been incredibly grand back in the Jiuli secret realm had now turned out like this . Her sharpness and arrogance had been ground away by the merciless passing of time . She had lost a martial artistâs ambitious heart .
âAre you thinking about when to go see that sister and leaving something behind inside her?â said Tang Wan-er extremely frankly .
Long Chen was speechless . This girl was becoming more and more corrupt under his influence . How could she say something so directly?
âHehe, what kind of joke is that? Do you think Iâm stupid?â
Tang Wan-er laughed and wrapped her arm around Long Chenâs arm . âIâm just teasing you . Donât you like beautiful women? Sister Biluo is very beautiful, andâŠâ
Tang Wan-er gestured at her chest with her hands, meaning that Hua Biluo was also a woman with a grand chest .
âIn truth, Iâve always felt that liking someone is completely dependant on the feeling they give me . I donât have that kind of feeling toward her, nor would I feel an impulse to risk my life for her, so you can be sure that I donât like her!â Long Chen shook his head .
Putting it like that made Tang Wan-er smile . âAlright, since youâve put it that way, Iâll allow you to go find sister Biluo when you absolutely canât hold back anymore!â
Long Chen raged, âYou foolish girl, without feelings as a foundation, wouldnât it be no different than beasts mating? Since you like it when I leave behind things, how about I leave something behind for you right now!â
âNoâŠ!â
The next day, Shui Yuncong returned with three million middle grade spirit stones and the World Piercing Jade Talisman . Only then did Long Chen hand over the Heavenly Water Pearl . After the exchange, both sides smiled sinisterly .
After obtaining the World Piercing Jade Talisman, Long Chen called Meng Qi out of seclusion . Meng Qi had completely placed her mark on all the spiritual crystals, and it was no longer taxing for her to keep them in her spiritual space . She could easily refine them over time, and it wouldnât affect her combat ability .
Once he arranged a few things with Shui Wuhen, he brought Meng Qi out of the Xuantian Dao Sect . Meng Qi summoned her Violet Phoenix Sparrow, and they rushed into the distance .
