Chapter 519: Thirteen’s Request, Niansheng: Even if you lose the entire world, you still have me
Chen Changsheng’s stubbornness made everyone present feel a pang of heartache.
Everyone knew the sages had come one after another, but no one knew how much Chen Changsheng had sacrificed behind the scenes.
However, faced with the situation, the crowd did not know how to speak up.
It was the silence of the crowd that caused Chen Changsheng’s emotions to erupt even more.
He looked at Wu Li and shouted angrily, “Wu Li, you tell me, is the fate of the world more important, or is a single heart more important?”
Faced with Chen Changsheng’s question, Wu Li bowed his head in silence.
Seeing this, Chen Changsheng then pointed the accusation at Nalan Xingde.
“Shuchan, you are well-versed in ancient and modern texts, you come and tell me, should I indulge myself this once?”
Looking at Chen Changsheng in front of him, Nalan Xingde pursed his lips and said, “We all respect the sages, and the entire Crimson Realm respects the sages. No matter what the sages do, no one dares to utter a word against it.”
“But do you truly wish to see all the efforts of the crowd turned to ash?”
“Don’t talk to me about that; I don’t want to hear it.”
“The mission to save the world is not mine, Chen Changsheng. Whether this world collapses or is split into pieces, what does it matter to me?”
As he said this, Chen Changsheng’s gaze fell upon the phantom of Huafeng.
“Huafeng, right now I want to destroy the Eight Desolates and obliterate the cycle of reincarnation. What are your plans?”
In response, the phantom of Huafeng softly replied, “What the sage wishes to do is wrong, but this is what the sage desires. Huafeng is willing to go through fire and water for this.”
“Very well, having your word is enough.”
“Having taught and helped so many people, yet it’s this group of juniors who have a conscience.”
“Some people, I see, have lived for all these years in vain.”
“Well then, without them, I, Chen Changsheng, can still destroy this Crimson Realm.”
Chen Changsheng’s words pierced Wu Li and the others’ hearts like a sharp blade.
“Swipe!”
Just as he spoke, a crack appeared in the Void, and a voice of complaint came from inside.
“You truly are my ancestor; from such a great distance, you made me bring your true self over. I nearly lost my life.”
Ge Hong walked out of the Void accompanied by a fairy in white.
Seeing the fairy in white, everyone present became serious, with Wu Li and Nalan Xingde showing a bit of fear.
The fairy in white scanned the crowd before walking up to Chen Changsheng, raising her hand to stroke Chen Changsheng’s face and saying, “How long has it been since we last met? How has my elder brother changed like this again?”
“Who bullied elder brother? Niansheng will help you get your revenge.”
Hearing Niansheng’s words, Chen Changsheng took a deep breath, his excited emotions settling somewhat.
“It’s nothing; elder brother is powerless, not only losing to others but allowing them to take more.”
“Losing is losing. Even if elder brother loses the entire world, there is still me.”
As she spoke, Niansheng turned to look at Ge Hong and said, “Little Immortal, you owe my elder brother a favor; will you recognize this debt?”
Upon hearing this, the Little Immortal glanced at the figures in the distance and then looked back at Chen Changsheng, whose eyes were slightly red, and helplessly said,
“This debt, of course, I recognize, but…”
“There are no ‘buts.’ You just need to acknowledge this debt. If you don’t acknowledge it, you can leave right now.”
Faced with this, the Little Immortal anxiously scratched his head, and finally looked at the figures in the distance and said,
“They’ve already won; why provoke him?”
“He’s already on the edge of madness; you all want him to go completely insane.”
“Now look, everyone might as well d*e together.”

Seeing the situation at the scene, the once-silent Chen Shisan spoke up again.
“Sir, Thirteen knows you have been wronged. Now that your anger has subsided, it’s time for you to return, right?”
“I am merely a dead man, and before I disappear, if I can do one last thing for you, for this Crimson Realm, Thirteen will be satisfied.”
“I won’t agree!”
“Thirteen, you need to believe me. Although I can’t bring you back to life, letting you live another three to five thousand years isn’t a problem.”
“I understand,” Chen Shisan said with a smile, nodding: “Sir, you can always achieve what ordinary people cannot.”
“But what then, after living another three to five thousand years?”
“Everyone ultimately has to d*e; life is as brilliant as summer flowers, d*ath as tranquil as autumn leaves.”
“This is what Thirteen wishes in my heart, and what I think in my heart.”
“Thirteen has always been stubborn since childhood, so I never ask for help; today, Thirteen sincerely requests of you.”
After finishing, Chen Shisan cupped his hands in a deep bow to Chen Changsheng.
Gazing at Chen Shisan, who was formally “asking” him for the first time, Chen Changsheng felt tears welling in his eyes.
“Ha!”
Taking a deep breath and slowly exhaling, Chen Changsheng’s lips trembled as he said, “Meng Yu, your man is going to seek d*ath now; persuade him.”
Hearing this, Meng Yu smiled slightly, then looked at Chen Shisan beside her and said,
“Sir, I am merely a woman; all the major matters in the family are decided by the men.”
“In my eyes, my man is the most outstanding presence in this world; no one can compare to him.”
Upon hearing this, Chen Changsheng painfully closed his eyes.
After a long time, Chen Changsheng opened his eyes and said, “When I first met you, I said that as long as you are willing to ask me, I will help you.”
“Since you’ve said it this way, then I will fulfill your wish.”
“Let’s all go; everything is as you wish.”
With that, Chen Changsheng turned and returned to the somewhat dilapidated room.
Watching Chen Changsheng’s retreating figure, everyone opened their mouths but ultimately couldn’t say anything.
After a while, the crowd began to disperse, leaving only Niansheng and Ge Hong behind.
“My ancestor, hurry back.”
“That place cannot be without people; it’s become very dangerous since I’ve been away for a while.”
“I understand; let me look for a little longer.”
After ten breaths, Niansheng left with Ge Hong as well.
…
In the Void.
“Swipe!”
A sharp Sword Qi cut through the endless Void, and the figure before was being pursued by Chen Shisan.
“Sword God, don’t be arrogant; do you really think I can’t defeat you?”
In response to the figure’s words, Chen Shisan calmly replied, “In my current state, I naturally can’t win against you, but taking a part of you is still no problem.”
“If you want my life, I can give it to you, but you shouldn’t bully the sir.”
“If you are sensible, let me strike you down with one sword. If you resist, then this last sword will be left for you.”
Upon hearing this, the figure almost cursed in anger.
The Sword God had indeed exhausted his energy, yet everyone knew he still had one last sword in his heart.
This meant that he could choose someone to perish with him.
No one would want to be dragged down by someone on the brink of d*ath.
Thinking this, the figure slowed his flight speed somewhat; after all, being slightly injured was better than losing one’s life.
