Chapter 334: Zhi Ze, a Perfect Child!

Upon hearing Chen Changsheng’s words, Ziping was momentarily stunned before smiling.

“Xiancha is jesting. There are people beyond the heavens and talents beyond the earth; I have never considered myself to be the best in the world.”

“If you’re not the best, then it’s only natural that you might fail someday in the future.”

“For such matters, I naturally wouldn’t take them to heart.”

Hearing this, Chen Changsheng fell silent for a moment before laughing.

“Hahaha! You little rascal, you weren’t scared at all, good job.”

“You few are the future of this realm. From now on, I will give you an opportunity.”

With that, Chen Changsheng quickened his pace.

…

After traveling through the endless void for an unknown duration, a floating island appeared before everyone.

Feeling the malevolent aura emanating from the island, everyone couldn’t help but feel a surge of excitement.

This was finally the lost Qiongqi Tomb they had been searching for.

Looking at the tomb before him, Chen Changsheng pondered for a moment and said, “This Qiongqi Tomb is the burial place of many powerful beings.”

“After so many years of changes, it must be extremely dangerous.”

“I will go with Qiu Ze first to scout the area. Once we confirm it’s safe, you can come up.”

With that, Chen Changsheng led Zhi Ze onto the island.

…

Upon reaching the island.

Zhi Ze looked around and, after confirming there were no dangers, spoke.

“Tell me, what exactly is going on? Why did you call me out alone?”

Hearing this, Chen Changsheng replied calmly, “How do you know I wanted to speak with you?”

“Others may not know, but I do. You, Chen Changsheng, are not one to be soft-hearted. Witch Force, Thirteen, Tianxuan…”

“None of these people escaped your ruthless pursuit. Now, here you worry about their safety.”

“What more, you want to investigate personally. Do you think I would believe such talk?”

Facing Zhi Ze’s words, Chen Changsheng fell silent once again.

“Why suddenly seek the Qiongqi Tomb?”

“I don’t know, I just felt like it, just like being hungry and wanting to eat.”

Hearing this, Chen Changsheng pursed his lips.

As a divine beast, Zhi Ze’s instinct to avoid danger was deeply ingrained.

Originally playing happily outside, Zhi Ze suddenly began to search diligently for the Qiongqi Tomb.

The only explanation was that Zhi Ze sensed danger and wanted to hide.

“How long do you plan to stay here?”

“I don’t know, but I have a feeling it will be quite a long time.”

Upon hearing this, Chen Changsheng sighed softly and said, “This great calamity is finally coming.”

“Even you seeking a hiding place indicates that this calamity is not simple.”

“By the way, what do you think of Ziping as a child?”

“He’s great!”

“Wise and brave, diligent and studious, calm under pressure, extraordinary talent, he’s the most perfect person I’ve ever seen.”

For Zhi Ze’s words, Chen Changsheng made no response, only staring straight at Zhi Ze.

Chen Changsheng’s gaze, capable of piercing through the soul, made Zhi Ze uncomfortable.

After half a cup of tea, Zhi Ze could no longer bear it.

“I do dislike him a bit, are you satisfied now?”

“But that doesn’t prove anything, he really is a perfect child.”

Seeing Zhi Ze’s somewhat angry expression, Chen Changsheng softly said, “You also said he’s a perfect child.”

“Yet you didn’t say he’s a good child.”

“So what, I could rephrase it. Nalan Ziren is a good…”

The last two words got stuck in Bai Ze’s throat, unable to be spoken.

Given Bai Ze’s personality, lying was second nature, yet it couldn’t bring itself to utter that word.

It seemed harder than climbing to the sky.

Struggling for a while, Bai Ze ultimately gave up.

“Indeed, I sensed something bad from Ziran.”

“But those are future events, they shouldn’t count.”

“Besides, how do you see him?”

Hearing this, Chen Changsheng glanced at the few people waiting in the distance and spoke.

“I’m not too sure, but you should understand the principle of overcorrection.”

“From Emperor Huangtian to Chen Shisan, countless prodigies have some flaws.”

“But I didn’t see any of these things in Ziran. I even feel he’ll surpass everyone in perfection.”

“It’s because of this that I’m worried, for there’s no such thing as a perfect person.”

“If a truly perfect person appears, it won’t be a good thing.”

Hearing this, Bai Ze fell silent as well.

At Chen Changsheng’s level, cultivators develop a certain intuition about matters.

Chen Changsheng’s insight was unparalleled. If even he felt something might go wrong with Ziran, it indicated a significant issue.

“What do you plan to do?”

“I don’t know.”

“Just as you said, it’s just a premonition, and it pertains to the future.”

“I dare not be sure how things will unfold. Perhaps he might carve out his own fate like Thirteen did.”

“So who do you plan to use to balance him?”

“Bookworm is your method to balance Tianxuan. Thirteen is your method to balance the Heavenly Court.”

“Who do you plan to use to balance Ziran?”

Facing Bai Ze’s question, many choices flashed through Chen Changsheng’s mind. Finally, Chen Changsheng softly said,

“I’ll do it.”

“I’ll personally teach Ziran, and I will be the means to balance him.”

“But I still can’t imagine what action he might take that would make me act against him.”

“Causing chaos across the world, does that count?”

“No, d*ath is part of the cycle. If Ziran becomes a tyrant, others will deal with him.”

“Disregarding family ties and attacking old friends, does that count?”

“No, by the time Ziran emerges, those old acquaintances should be long gone. Who could he attack then?”

“Even if he attacks his future friends, that’s his own choice. I won’t interfere.”

“I’m not a righteous knight, bent on eradicating all evil.”

“What if he attacks you?”

Upon hearing this, Chen Changsheng instantly closed his mouth.

“Changsheng, you’ve revealed many secrets of yours to others.”

“In fact, your judgment of people is correct. They all consider you the most important person in their lives.”

“They will always protect your secret.”

“But there are always exceptions. If someone close to you wants to explore your secrets, what would you do?”

“I don’t know.”

“But I really feel he will attack me. He’s too perfect, without flaws, and thus unbound by emotions.”

“The only flaw he has is his inability to live long.”

“When he reaches a certain point, he will try to remedy this flaw, and I will be the only answer.”
