Chapter 391: An Old Friend Appears, Calamity Lasts a Thousand Years
Faced with Chen Changsheng’s gaze, Qian Ya realized something was wrong, so she hurriedly pulled Huafeng aside to leave.
However, Huafeng, seeing the situation, was not so willing to leave.
She had heard the story that Tian Guang told earlier.
But from the looks of it, this story was likely true.
If this story were true, then the secret behind it would be far beyond imagination.
Seeing Huafeng stay rooted in place, Qian Ya was almost frantic.
“My dear aunt, whatever it is, we can talk about it later.”
“If we don’t leave now, we won’t be able to later.”
Despite Qian Ya’s earnest persuasion, Huafeng completely ignored her, her gaze fixed firmly on Chen Changsheng.
Eager to hear him speak, she wanted to see if she had the qualification to hear this secret in Chen Changsheng’s heart.
Though Huafeng was incredibly determined, it was unfortunate that Chen Changsheng never glanced at her.
It seemed as if all of Chen Changsheng’s attention was drawn to the painting on the wall.
Seeing this, Huafeng had no choice but to leave the academy with Qian Ya.
At that moment, Huafeng also made up her mind that one day she would stand at the same height as Chen Changsheng and speak with him.
Once the “uninvited guests” had left, Chen Changsheng gradually spoke.
“Wang Hao, your name is quite audacious.”
“The character ‘土’ combined with ‘一’ spells ‘王.'”
“And then you gave yourself the nickname ‘Master Haotian,’ do you really think others can’t guess your identity?”
“Hahaha!”
Hearing this, “Tu Yi” laughed.
“When it comes to audacity, who can compare to you, Chen Changsheng?”
“Walking the world under your real name, yet very few know your true identity.”
“I’m just learning from you.”
At this, Chen Changsheng shot a glance at Wang Hao and said blandly.
“You and your grandfather have reunited after a long separation; you must have a lot to say.”
“How about this: you talk first, and once you’re done, I’ll slowly speak.”
With that, Chen Changsheng once again looked at the painting on the wall.
Wang Hao’s gaze also shifted to the side where Ye Yongxian was standing.
“Ancestor, it’s been many years; I did not expect you to still be alive.”
“I always thought that over the years, I had cleaned out the Wang family’s bloodline completely; I didn’t expect you to still have a backup.”
Upon hearing this, Ye Yongxian coldly chuckled.
“If you weren’t dead, how could I dare to take a step first? But your survival does indeed surprise me.”
“If it were another era, that’d be fine, but this is the era of Thunder Tribulation. With all your karmic debts, you should have long been reduced to ashes by now.”
“It truly is a calamity that lasts a thousand years!”
“Hahaha!”
“What the ancestor said is true; good people don’t live long, calamities last a thousand years.”
“Since I didn’t d*e, it means I still have unfinished business; perhaps Heaven thinks that I have a battle with the ancestor ahead, which is why I am still here.”
Saying this, Wang Hao glanced at the truly painting-watching Chen Changsheng and said.
“With the ancestor so confident, it seems you are seeking allies.”
“To think that the Undertaker is working alongside former enemies is truly absurd.”
“But does the ancestor really believe that the Undertaker can protect you?”
“They have other matters to attend to; they can’t possibly follow you forever.”
“Heh!”
“Do you really need their help to k*ll me? That’s simply a grand joke.”
“Don’t think that occupying a slight advantage will guarantee your victory; in front of me, you will forever be just a three-year-old child.”
With that, the eyes of the two turned cold, displaying signs of a potential confrontation.
“Are you done?”
“If you’re planning to fight, I can step aside for you.”
After observing the painting on the wall, Chen Changsheng turned his gaze to the two.
Seeing this, Ye Yongxian paused for a breath and then calmly sat down.
“Heh!”
“Even the Undertaker has personally come out; it seems the Thunder Tribulation of this era is truly a great trouble.”
“However, this is not the ancestor’s temperament; you’re not…”
“Speak clearly; if you keep spouting nonsense, believe it or not, I will sew your mouth shut.”
Wang Hao’s words were interrupted mercilessly by Chen Changsheng.
Looking at Chen Changsheng’s gaze, Wang Hao fell silent for a long time before finally smiling and sitting down.
Scanning the two to confirm they were temporarily at peace, Chen Changsheng slowly spoke.
“Let’s not beat around the bush; we are all familiar faces, and we are all intelligent people, so I won’t waste time.”
“This time I come out is for us ‘old fogies’ to find a way to survive, for those who should d*e and those who shouldn’t.”
“If the problem of Thunder Tribulation is not resolved, we will eventually turn to dust one day.”
“So during this time, I hope no one causes trouble.”
“If anyone obstructs my path due to causing trouble, I will k*ll them. I hope you understand my words.”
Faced with Chen Changsheng’s confident tone, Wang Hao replied indifferently.
“The Thunder Tribulation is an unsolvable deadlock; are you really that confident?”
“Whether I am confident or not, I don’t know, but my success rate is surely greater than yours.”
“When I established the Sea of Suffering System with the Emperor Huangtian, your father hadn’t even appeared yet; you’re still too young to doubt me.”
“There’s a saying your ancestor spoke correctly; you are just a child who has seized a bit of an advantage; sometimes, don’t be too self-righteous.”
Hearing this, Wang Hao coldly laughed.
“When did the immortal cultivation world judge heroes by lifespan? That was not the case in the era of Emperor Huangtian…”
“So, the Emperor Huangtian was driven to run like a stray dog; it was like that back then, and it is still like that now.”
“If you don’t believe me, ask your ancestor; he has always been a match for the Emperor Huangtian.”
Upon hearing this, Ye Yongxian smiled slightly.
“The Emperor Huangtian’s talent is unmatched throughout history. His vision and ambition are admirable, and his determination is indeed terrifying.”
“Each time he finds himself in a deadly situation, he is always able to break through.”
“Even with such extraordinary talent as the Emperor Huangtian, it does not change the fact that he has never broken through the Ascension Road.”
“It also does not change the past that he was once hunted.”
“So, in our eyes, you can only be a child who has seized an advantage.”
Faced with the two’s insufferably arrogant words, Wang Hao fell silent for two breaths and then said with a smile.
“Coming to Mountain River Academy, I’ve come to understand a principle.”
“That is, when you encounter your shortcomings, you must learn. If I have no intention of learning, how can I become the strongest Demon Cultivator under heaven?”
“So may I ask, do you two need someone to do what you want?”
“I am not talented, and I’d like to recommend myself.”
“How do you feel about that?”
After listening to Wang Hao’s words, Chen Changsheng said lightly.
“Since we’re going to work together, let’s be straightforward.”
“We’re all veterans; I believe you shouldn’t need to be taught like newcomers.”
