Chapter 481: Searching for Zhang Bairen Again, A New Life is Born
The Su Family in Wuxiang City.
At this moment, the quiet courtyard of Huafeng was filled with people.
Even Bai Ze, who had disappeared for a long time, was now present at the Su Family.
Bai Ze was seen shaking its large head, constantly leaning towards the infant, but was pushed away by Meng Yu’s hand.
“Bai Ze, keep your distance, will you? You might drop him, he’s still little.”
Hearing this, Bai Ze rolled its eyes dramatically.
“Wait, are you kidding me? How can you say such absurd things?”
“You think I might drop him? Are you joking?”
Facing Bai Ze’s retort, Meng Yu pouted.
“I don’t care, you’re still too close, so stay away from Chen Xiang.”
Saying this, she took a few steps back while holding Chen Xiang.
Seeing that Meng Yu wouldn’t let him approach Chen Xiang, Bai Ze could only sway its head and lean closer to Yin Qi.
Looking at Bai Ze, who was filled with affection, Hu Potato said.
“Bai Ze, where has Changsheng gone? Why isn’t he here for such an occasion?”
“I don’t know. After he entrusted these two children to me, he said he had some matters to attend to.”
“Why are you all worried about him? With his strength now, can anything really happen?”
Facing Bai Ze’s words, Hu Potato didn’t respond further, but the worry in her heart remained unresolved.
……
In the Flower Domain.
“Huafeng has opened the way and made you my master; everyone knows that the God and Demon Cemetery is your work.”
“The title of the New Heavenly Court is ingrained in everyone’s heart.”
“If nothing unexpected happens, the New Heavenly Court will rule this world for the next ten thousand years.”
“I’ve even found a resting place for you. In another twenty or so years, it should be ready.”
“So, do you have any lingering wishes?”
Listening to Chen Changsheng’s narrative, Zhang Bairen nodded rapidly.
“No, I am quite satisfied with your actions.”
“Then if you’re satisfied, why are you still alive? What are you waiting for?”
As he spoke, Chen Changsheng looked up at Zhang Bairen in front of him.
“Other than a wisp of consciousness trapped in the Thunder Tribulation, you are now just a ghost of your former self.”
“But even in this condition, you stubbornly cling to life. What exactly are you waiting for?”
Looking at Chen Changsheng’s serious expression, Zhang Bairen grinned.
“I’m just waiting to see you make a fool of yourself.”
“Since you have reappeared in this world, you’ve been scheming from behind the scenes, making everyone fearful.”
“Now it’s someone else’s turn to come up with plans against you. I genuinely want to see you embarrass yourself.”
Hearing this, Chen Changsheng raised his eyebrows and said.
“How do you know about this matter too?”
“Why wouldn’t the son of the Supreme Saint know?”
“It’s a pity that Nalan Fuyao and Nalan Xingde have kept that child so closely guarded.”
“On the contrary, taking him as a disciple might be a better choice.”
“After all, if you want to deal with you, it’s best to target the people around you.”
Facing Zhang Bairen’s smug expression, Chen Changsheng responded calmly.
“What kind of person is Nalan Fuyao, after all?”
“A seeker of longevity.”
“Is it really that simple?”
“Yes, it truly is that simple.”
“You, Chen Changsheng, wish to pursue longevity; naturally, others desire it even more.”
“But seeking longevity is like flowers in a mirror or the moon in water; everyone yearns for it, yet all know it’s unrealistic.”
“Nalan Fuyao is naturally aware that achieving longevity is impossible, so he wishes to help Nalan Ziren attain it.”
“I see, but how does Nalan Fuyao’s teaching of Nalan Ziren relate to obtaining longevity?”
Upon hearing this, Zhang Bairen didn’t answer immediately but instead quietly looked at Chen Changsheng.
“Chen Changsheng, we are all clear-headed individuals. Why play dumb? You seriously don’t think no one is paying attention to you, do you?”
“I know some may be watching me, but what does that have to do with longevity?”
“You’ve lived for so long, can’t you give me a little more time too?”
Seeing Chen Changsheng avoid the question, Zhang Bairen chuckled. “Well, since you won’t say, I won’t ask.”
“I can tell you everything about Nalan Fuyao. After this, we’ll be even.”
“Not enough, if I’m to prepare the resting place for you, simply having some information won’t suffice.”
“What else do you want?”
“I want you to safeguard this Crimson Realm. I know you have the means.”
“This Crimson Realm is not only our collective effort but also part of your efforts. I don’t believe you would watch Nalan Fuyao destroy it.”
In response to this, Zhang Bairen remained silent for a long time.
“If I were still alive and hadn’t fallen out with the Ancient Forbidden Ground, perhaps I could still challenge him.”
“But I’m already dead now; the power and means at my disposal are extremely limited.”
“What if you included me?”
“We could give it a try, but you have to withstand Nalan Fuyao’s attacks.”
“If you d*e, I don’t want to have to bring out my last trump card.”
“No problem.”
“So, what is the truth behind Nalan Fuyao?”
“I can’t tell you directly; once I speak of this information, certain people will pick up on it.”
“If you want clues, you should start from the Wang Family’s grandfather and grandson.”
“Given your intelligence, you should be able to guess some things.”
“Are you talking about Wang Hao?”
“Yes, your encountering Wang Hao may be coincidental, but the character of Wang Hao is not necessarily just by chance.”
“I understand now, thank you.”
After speaking, Chen Changsheng got up to leave.
Looking at Chen Changsheng’s receding figure, Zhang Bairen murmured.
“Nalan Fuyao, how is it that you just happened to cross paths with Chen Changsheng?”
“This is the first time I’ve seen this guy so serious, actually coming to find me.”
“You better be able to defeat him in one blow; otherwise, you’ll be in serious trouble.”
“Hahaha!”
……
At Mountain River Academy.
Just after finishing a class, tutor Tu Yi stepped out and encountered Chen Changsheng, who had been waiting for a long time.
Seeing Chen Changsheng appear, Wang Hao was somewhat surprised.
According to reason, there was nothing for him to do in this era.
“You coming to find me truly takes me by surprise.”
“Let me think, you don’t expect me to help you deal with someone, do you?”
“One could say that.”
“That’s not acceptable. According to our agreement, I’ll help you deal with those who slipped through the net if you don’t interfere with my matters.”
“Now that you’re looking for my help again, it means you’ve encountered a stronger enemy. While we’ve cooperated, I don’t want to be forced to serve you.”
“You should look for someone else for this matter.”
As he spoke, Wang Hao waved his hand and turned to leave.
