Chapter 414: Like Chewing Wax, Zhang Bairen: I’m Going to d*e
As he spoke, Zhang Bairen pointed to the grave in front of him and said.
“Those who prefer silence have chosen to dissipate, while those who do not like it have chosen to stay, just like Qian Bao’er did back then.”
“Moreover, by passing the Heavenly Path’s test, not only can you borrow their strength, but you can also borrow their weapons.”
“These weapons have been nurtured in the God and Demon Cemetery for so long, each one containing immense power.”
“Using them in battle should eliminate that situation where you can’t k*ll your enemies.”
Upon hearing this, Chen Changsheng slightly lifted the corners of his mouth and said.
“The Jade Emperor is indeed the Jade Emperor; with just a casual move, he solved two of my most troubling problems.”
“Speak, what do you want me to do?”
“There’s a trade-off; since you’re so straightforward, you must have other matters to address.”
Upon hearing this, Zhang Bairen looked at Chen Changsheng.
“You are the Undertaker, and I want you to help me create a grave.”
“What do you mean?”
“Chen Changsheng, I’m going to d*e.”
Zhang Bairen calmly stated this, while Chen Changsheng stared deeply into his eyes.
“You, Zhang Bairen, want to live; there must be many ways. I don’t believe it!”
Hearing this, Zhang Bairen laughed and waved his hand.
“Don’t make me sound so impressive; I am not invincible in the world yet.”
“The group sealing the Crimson Realm is too strong; if they weren’t, I wouldn’t need to plan for so long.”
“Facing such enemies, sacrificing one’s life is a very normal thing.”
After hearing this, Chen Changsheng was silent for a long time.
“Who exactly is your enemy, and why won’t you tell me?”
“There are many enemies, too many for us to count ourselves.”
“But as long as this group of us is not dead, you will never know the truth.”
“Why?”
“Because you are still alive like a human.”
“Chen Changsheng, we have sacrificed too much on this path of conquest; we have let go of too much.”
“To put it bluntly, we no longer live like humans.”
“We are the old friends in your memory, your concerns.”
“But you are also the last piece of pure land in our hearts.”
“Only with you alive does what we do have meaning.”
“Only if you are alive can you protect everything we have created.”
“So as long as we are not completely dead, you will not know the truth.”
“Whoever tells you the truth, we will find trouble with whoever that is.”
After listening to Zhang Bairen’s words, Chen Changsheng said lightly.
“I will guard this Crimson Realm for you, and I will also watch every corner of this world for you.”
“Everything that needs to be said has been said; I must leave now and continue on. Do you have any other matters to hand over?”
Hearing this, Zhang Bairen smiled broadly and said.
“Help me teach that little Peacock well; she is my disciple.”
“Also, tell her that if she wants to surpass me, she should come find me in the Thunder Tribulation!”
“The Heavenly Path not only records the power of those heroic spirits but also simulates their phantoms.”
“Defeating the phantom in the Thunder Tribulation will allow her to pass the test.”
“I also want to see who among me and Emperor Huangtian is truly invincible at the same level.”
After hearing Zhang Bairen’s words, Chen Changsheng turned and left.
Watching Chen Changsheng’s back, a smile unconsciously appeared on Zhang Bairen’s lips.
“Chen Changsheng!”
“When will my grave be ready? I can’t wait too long.”
“It won’t take long; what Chen Changsheng does is fair for everyone. Just prepare your reward.”
As soon as the words fell, Chen Changsheng had already stepped into the Void.
In the vast God and Demon Cemetery, only Zhang Bairen remained alone.

Outside the wooden house.
“Swish!”
Chen Changsheng appeared out of thin air outside the house. Seeing this, Sui Feng hurriedly approached to ask.
“Sir, has the matter been taken care of?”
“Get down on your knees and bow!”
Chen Changsheng suddenly said, and Sui Feng promptly knelt down.
“Remember, from now on, he is your master.”
“He is a man whose talent can rival Emperor Huangtian, and his vision exceeds your imagination.”
“If you wish to surpass him, you must contend with a man who stands on a high mountain, alone.”
“All living beings in the world may forget him, but you must not.”
“Because you are his disciple; you are Zhang Zhenren’s disciple.”
“Bang, bang, bang!”
After bowing three times, Sui Feng got up to look at the tightly closed wooden door.
“Sir, is my master going to d*e?”
“Yes.”
“But someone like him should not d*e like this.”
Hearing this, Chen Changsheng turned to look at Sui Feng.
“It’s not just him who will d*e like this; you will too.”
“This is the price of walking this path!”
“Since you want to surpass everyone, you will live longer than everyone else, until everyone around you has died.”
“That includes your brother.”
“Can’t this outcome be changed?”
“You might be able to use powerful strength to eliminate all your enemies in the world.”
“But you will never be able to stop life from reaching its end.”
“Your own life is like this, and so is everyone else’s.”
After hearing this, Sui Feng was silent for a long time.
Then, she took out a piece of cake from her storage magic treasure and gently put it in her mouth.
“Sir, is this the feeling of ‘like chewing wax’?”
“Yes.”
“Do you know why the Culinary Immortal exhausted herself to make delicious food?”
“Because she wanted to find the taste of the past.”
“But no matter how skilled she is or how high her cultivation, she will ultimately not find the taste of the past.”
“The past month has been deemed your worst days.”
“Because sweetness has become greasy and overwhelming.”
“But now you should cherish that memory, because from now on, you will never feel that way again.”
After listening, Sui Feng spoke.
“Sir, what shall we do next?”
“We have found a way to resolve the Thunder Tribulation; next, we need to make some preparations.”
“Those guys in the academy have had a few days of stable life; it’s time to give them something to do.”
“After we arrive at the academy, I will teach you a set of fist techniques. This set of techniques is a unique skill passed down from your master.”
Upon hearing this, Sui Feng looked slightly puzzled.
“If it’s a unique skill passed down from my master, how do you know it?”
“Under certain fortunate circumstances, I obtained the inheritance through other means.”
“So, in terms of seniority, I am his junior brother.”
Having said that, Chen Changsheng turned to leave, and Sui Feng quickly followed in his footsteps.
Chen Changsheng and Zhang Zhenren have a brotherly relationship, yet there was never a sense of this in their titles.
Sui Feng felt intuitively that there was a story within, but she did not ask.
Past events are like smoke; some things have passed and will remain in the past.
Exploring the truth will only add another stain to the memory of old friends.
