Chapter 149: The Pursuing “Human Immortal” of the Great Qian

【Day 15 since leaving Great Qian】

【In the Army of Survival, many figures have fallen along the way, but the survivors continue to move forward, following your footsteps, pursuing that dream of a future】

【You keep throwing punches in silence】

【You have slain many demons and monsters, your perseverance in killing them has brought you real improvement】

【You have become adept at exploiting the weaknesses of demons and monsters, an unseen force empowers you, increasing your effectiveness against them】

【Day 20 since leaving Great Qian】

【The Army of Survival moves both incredibly fast and incredibly slow】

【Compared to the speed of mortals, the Army of Survival is undoubtedly fast】

【Compared to the speed of an Innate Martial Artist, the Army of Survival is undoubtedly slow】

【To protect the elderly and children in the group, you throw punches again and again, shielding them from the onslaught of demons and monsters, the gratitude of the people is endless】

【Day 24 since leaving Great Qian】

【You suddenly turn around, sensing a palpitation from the rear of the group】

【It has nothing to do with A Niu, nor with anyone else, what you feel is a pressure resonating from distant Great Qian, causing your martial instincts to constantly warn you】

“Is it the Great Qian Emperor?”

“No, it could also be the so-called Human Immortal.”

“Such a strong sense of crisis… So, they have finally noticed the Army of Survival’s departure.”

Xu Xi stops in his tracks.

His gaze turns back, as if piercing through layers of mountains, witnessing everything within the Imperial Capital of Great Qian.

There are rebel armies being slaughtered in various places.

There are ruins of collapsed and broken buildings.

And there, the Great Qian Emperor, furious upon discovering the escape of the Army of Survival.

“We must speed up,” Xu Xi retracts his gaze, continuing to exploit the power of the Inner World of Blood and Qi, to carve out a safe path at a faster pace.

The current breakout is barely manageable with just the demons and monsters of the Ten Thousand Mountains.

If we add the pursuit from Great Qian.

Under the encirclement of both.

Even if the Army of Survival could truly break out of the mountains, the number of survivors would inevitably be few.

…

【Day 30 since leaving Great Qian】

【Under your leadership, the Army of Survival has traveled a great distance】

【Weapons are damaged, armor is incomplete, hoes and dung forks have broken one after another】

【You fight until exhaustion, drenched in blood, the filth from various demons and monsters】

【Wu Yingxue is concerned about your physical condition, suggesting that she take the lead, but you refuse her proposal】

【As you delve deeper, the demons and monsters in the Ten Thousand Mountains become increasingly terrifying, often appearing are Great Demons of the Second Stage of Innate Realm, the same level as the young girl】

【Such opponents, along with the endless tide of demons and monsters, are not something the young girl can handle alone】

【On the same day, you sense that the trap you left behind has been triggered by an unknown presence】

【It was a setup you used to mislead the pursuers from Great Qian】

【You hoped to use this method to misdirect their pursuit, buying more time for you and the Army of Survival to break through】

【Now that the trap has been triggered, it means the pursuers have arrived, a strong sense of crisis wells up in your heart, and once again you exploit the Blood and Qi within your body】

…

For a martial artist.

Fighting is a fun thing.

Whether one is of a dull nature or a timid one.

Under the stimulation of the Blood and Qi cycle within the body, few martial artists can remain calm, content with writing and painting.

Only fighting, fist-to-flesh combat, is what martial artists crave the most.

However.

No matter how much one enjoys fighting, no matter how much one enjoys the collision of life and death, when this behavior occurs tens of thousands of times in a row, the martial artist’s fervor will also cool down.

Xu Xi has been fighting for too long.

He fights demons and monsters while clearing the path.

His fists have smashed countless ferocious heads, the blood and flesh bursting from within, time and time again, highlighting the urgency on Xu Xi’s face.

The pursuers from Great Qian are right behind.

It’s possible they are demons corresponding to the Martial Dao Immortal.

At the thought of this, Xu Xi’s fists cannot stop, desperately trying to carve out a path forward.

Only at night does he take a brief rest.

“Sir, I’ve cooked a bowl of hot soup for you.”

Night falls.

The stars and moon are obscured by dense tree canopies.

Clusters of bonfires form stars on the ground, dotting the land while warming the fearful hearts of the people.

Wu Yingxue emerges from the side, still in her red and white martial attire, carefully handing a bowl of meat soup to Xu Xi.

“Thank you for your hard work, Yingxue.”

Xu Xi takes the hot soup, sipping it lightly.

The soup is simple.

A bit of wheat bran, a pinch of salt, a bowl of hot water, and some shredded dried demon meat.

Bland and tasteless, even strangely scalding hot soup, freshly made.

Given the current environment.

Xu Xi thinks, being able to drink such soup is already quite good.

“Sir, how does it taste?”, the girl asks in an expectant tone.

“Hmm, I think it’s quite good,” Xu Xi gives a versatile answer.

The girl is pleased.

She smiles happily.

She brings another bowl of hot soup, sitting beside Xu Xi, drinking the soup together, enjoying this rare moment of rest.

Wu Yingxue’s legs are restless, swinging as she sits.

Pale, like rising and falling jade.

Light, like willow branches in the wind.

The girl drinks the soup, happily chatting with Xu Xi, seemingly with endless things to say.

Only the fatigue on her face gradually shows, the girl who has been fighting all day soon becomes heavy-lidded, falling asleep in silence.

Xu Xi catches the girl’s back.

“Silly.”

Looking at the girl’s tired sleeping face, Xu Xi feels quite helpless.

He can see that Wu Yingxue is worried about him, but the girl herself is so tired, it feels quite unreliable.

Tsking.

Xu Xi gently lays the girl on the ground, creating a stable sleeping environment for her.

He then gets up, patrolling around the bonfires, checking for any oversights.

People see Xu Xi’s arrival.

They often call out respectfully, “Brother Xi.”

“A Niu?”

Walking along.

Xu Xi reaches the end of the group, he sees A Niu sitting alone, seemingly on night watch, or perhaps just daydreaming.

Only when Xu Xi approaches does A Niu hurriedly stand up.

“It’s okay, A Niu, sit down.”

Xu Xi gestures with his hand.

Sitting down beside the honest man.

“What were you thinking about just now, so lost in thought,” Xu Xi asks A Niu.

“Actually, it’s nothing…”

The sun-tanned man now appears shy, quite embarrassed: “I was just thinking, Brother Xu, you always say, letting people eat their fill is for survival…”

“Yes, I do say that, is there a problem?”

“I was just thinking, eating is for survival, then what is survival for.”

Xu Xi is greatly shocked.

Incredible.

A Niu is starting to ponder the philosophy of life.

Xu Xi laughs heartily: “So A Niu, have you figured it out, what is survival for.”

The man becomes even more embarrassed: “I survive to eat, to eat a lot, but I was thinking, maybe there’s something wrong with that.”

Xu Xi shakes his head.

He looks at the Ten Thousand Mountains at night, at the darkness that even the starlight is swallowed by.

He supports A Niu’s thoughts:

“That’s enough, A Niu.”

“As long as you feel happy, that’s the meaning of your survival.”

Is… is that so…

As long as I feel happy, that’s enough…

A Niu lowers his head, his eyes fixed on his rough palms, as if he has understood something.
