Chapter 354: A Favor, Chen Changsheng: This Is Hard to Handle!
After successfully drinking the bitter tea, Little Immortal leaned his arm on the table and moved closer to Chen Changsheng.
At the same time, he also peeked at Chen Changsheng’s tea canister.
“Brother, this time I really need to trouble you.”
“In our place, there’s no manpower left. Brother Fancan has a solution, so he definitely wouldn’t come to you.”
“And those fools, they’re not fit for handling aftermaths at all.”
“This favor can only be done by you!”
Facing Little Immortal’s rapid change in attitude, Chen Changsheng’s eyelids twitched.
He had always thought that Bai Ze’s shameless personality was learned from him, but now it seemed not entirely so.
Perhaps this was something he had picked up long ago.
“No problem helping you. Shouldn’t you answer some of my questions too?”
“That’s not possible!”
“Your path is different from ours. I can’t force you.”
“Speak plainly!”
“The group around the Emperor Huangtian doesn’t want you involved in these matters. When Zhang Bairen bore the Heavenly Mandate, he asked for your help.”
“As a result, he got beaten up. If I tell you the truth, I would be beaten to d*ath!”
Hearing this, Chen Changsheng stared at Little Immortal for a while and said, “Wu Li and the Scholar came to find me because of this matter, right?”
“Yes.”
“They were sent back by the little girl. I don’t know what happened later, but they formed an alliance with her again.”
“This time, I came to find you when they were busy.”
“If you don’t agree, I’ll just stay here.”
As he spoke, Little Immortal lay down on the chair, adopting a relaxed posture.
Seeing this, Chen Changsheng couldn’t help but take more interest in this “Little Immortal.”
Having met so many powerful beings, he had never seen someone so casual.
“I can understand if you don’t tell me the truth. Then let me ask another question.”
“How many enemies are there? Why haven’t they been dealt with yet?”
“When the heavens and earth are shattered, how can such battles be resolved? When will it end?”
Upon hearing this, Little Immortal smacked his lips and said, “How strong the enemy is, you can see from our lineup.”
“If shattering heaven and earth could make some existences disappear, then there wouldn’t be so many troubles.”
“Conservatives, reformers, saviors, people with ulterior motives…”
“There are too many beings in this world, and their thoughts are too numerous.”
“As the saying goes, different paths cannot walk together. Natural conflicts lead to enemies.”
“Furthermore, paths keep extending and can even turn corners.”
“Friends today might become enemies tomorrow, so the enemies here are endless.”
After listening, Chen Changsheng pondered for a moment and said, “So who do I need to deal with?”
“The conservatives, namely the remnants of the Thirty Thousand States and the Lower Realm.”
“Cultivators are hard to k*ll, especially those with great power.”
“Even though the world has been shattered and reassembled, there are still many stubborn remnants left.”
“Human clan, divine clan, demon clan, various sects, all have powerful beings who survived the world’s destruction.”
“Their existence hinders the development of the new world, even turning the new world into the former Upper Realm and Lower Realm.”
“So I need you to clear them out, accurately speaking, to help transform the entire world.”
After finishing, Little Immortal looked at Chen Changsheng sincerely.
Looking at Little Immortal’s gaze, Chen Changsheng calmly said, “You want me to carry out a massacre?”
—
“Absolutely not!” Little Immortal shook his head repeatedly. “If I were to start such a brutal purge, I wouldn’t bother you.”
“I need you to use other means to help them change.”
“If changing their minds is impossible, then even if I k*ll them all, it won’t help, as conservative thoughts continue to spread in the cultivation world.”
Regarding this request, Chen Changsheng did not immediately agree but instead tapped his fingers rhythmically on the table.
After a long pause, Chen Changsheng continued, “This matter is complicated. Besides me, there aren’t many people who can handle it well.”
“Now I understand why you’ve been persistently looking for me.”
“I can help, but you owe me a favor.”
Upon hearing this, Little Immortal’s face instantly twisted.
“Can’t we change the requirement?”
“Chen Changsheng’s favor is hard to repay. This is too much!”
“How about this, weapons, pills, techniques, heavenly treasures.”
“Whatever you want, I can help you get it.”
“I want a favor,” Chen Changsheng said with a smile. “Promise to owe me a favor, and I’ll help you.”
“If you don’t agree, then you can just stay here. I have plenty of time to wait.”
“Also, don’t say I didn’t warn you. What you need to do is very difficult; it’s not just about being strong.”
“Of course, if you can recreate the heavens and k*ll all living beings, everything I said is meaningless.”
Seeing Chen Changsheng’s firm expression, Little Immortal said doubtfully, “Are you fooling me?”
“This matter is challenging, but not as difficult as you say.”
“Not that difficult!”
Chen Changsheng raised his voice.
“Are you joking with me?”
“People say that killing someone is easy, but changing their hearts is ten times harder.”
“For example, everyone knows that feces stink. To change their established thinking…”
“It means making everyone eat feces and enjoy it.”
Facing Chen Changsheng’s relentless words, Little Immortal was confused.
“No, it’s not that extreme.”
“I just want them to reform. It’s good for them.”
Seeing Little Immortal’s lack of confidence, Chen Changsheng grinned.
“Seems like you haven’t understood the difficulty.”
“Alright, if you can accomplish a small task, I’ll help you for free.”
“What task?”
“In the next thousand years, you cannot wear any clothes or cover yourself, and you must meet your friends and companions in this state.”
“What kind of joke is this? How can that work? That’s just making things hard.”
Hearing this, Little Immortal stood up excitedly.
“You know it makes things hard!”
“With your realm, you are already immune to cold and heat and have transcended physical appearance.”
“So whether you wear clothes or not doesn’t matter to you. But your ingrained thinking prevents you from not wearing clothes.”
“Reasonably, the entrenched thoughts of the sects have existed for a long time.”
“Do you think it’s easier to make a sect not wear clothes or to change a long-standing rule?”
Facing this question, Little Immortal thought for a moment and seriously said, “Not wearing clothes is easier.”
“Well, then. Now, I’m asking you to change not just one sect or race, but the entire cultivation world.”
“Is that difficult or not?”
Little Immortal: “…”
It seems you have a point. Tù Huǐ feels that owing you a favor isn’t such a loss after all.
