Chapter 528: An Old Acquaintance, The Weight of Time
Facing Chen Changsheng’s words, Zhang Yusheng, although puzzled, still chose to keep this secret.
At the same time, Chen Changsheng was also paying attention to the distant battlefield.
With control of the cycle seized, those guys would surely be frantic. The next battle would be the main event.
Unexpectedly, after the control was seized, six Immortal Kings suddenly emerged from deep within the cycle, and all were at the Fourth Stage or higher.
Three of the Immortal Kings rushed toward Chen Shisan and Tianxuan, while the other three charged at Chen Changsheng.
Facing the attack of these three experts, Xu Hu was about to step in, but Chen Changsheng raised his hand to stop him.
“Patience, it’s not your turn yet.”
“Whoosh!”
The Pen Master appeared before the three Immortal Kings.
“I followed the Supreme Saint in reading, and even after the Supreme Saint passed away, I continued reading.”
“After reading for tens of thousands of years, today I’ve grasped some reason. Please evaluate it, you three.”
As the words fell, countless golden books flew out from the top of the Pen Master’s head, then trapped the three Immortal Kings inside.
Once done, a brush fell into the Pen Master’s hand.
“A touch of righteous spirit, a thousand miles of joyous wind!”
“Today, the Mountain River Academy cultivates righteous spirit for scholars across the world.”
After saying this, the Pen Master entered the cage formed by the books.
At the same time, the three Immortal Kings on the battlefield were stopped by two people working together; these two were Xu Mao and Moon Shadow.
Seeing the figures on the battlefield, Xu Hu became anxious.
“My lord…”
Before Xu Hu could finish speaking, his words got stuck in his throat because he saw Chen Changsheng’s calm and collected gaze.
It felt as if he was saying, “I know they are your parents, but these things are their responsibility.”
Feeling Chen Changsheng’s thoughts, Xu Hu clenched his fists tightly and said,
“My lord, can I take their place?”
“If I could, they wouldn’t be here.”
“If I could persuade them, it would be us who would appear on the battlefield.”
“Now is the last battle before peace. The older generation and the generation before that will use their last strength to clear the obstacles for you.”
“This is their wish, and I can’t persuade them otherwise.”
Hearing this, Xu Hu fell silent.
Facing the current situation, Xu Hu felt the burden on his shoulders grow heavier.
As the six Immortal Kings were blocked, more experts ran out from the Land of Reincarnation.
On the Nine Domains side, corresponding experts also engaged in combat.
However, most of these experts were veterans from the previous generation.
“You finally deigned to come see me.”
A middle-aged man appeared before Chen Changsheng. Seeing this, Chen Changsheng calmly said,
“Hiding from you for so long, I knew we’d eventually have to meet.”
“The greatest mistake of my Qian family was encountering you.”
“But the greatest honor of my Qian family was also encountering you.”
Looking at the middle-aged man before him, Chen Changsheng remained silent for a long time.
This person was an old acquaintance, the former president of the Wanfeng Merchant Association, Qian Bao’er’s father, Qian Fangkong.
“Fortune seals divinity; you should still be able to live for a while longer.”
Upon hearing this, Qian Fangkong waved his hand and said, “Forget it, I’ve grown tired of living long ago.”
“When our Qian family first ascended to the divine list, thirty-six members of our bloodline were listed. After such a long time, only I survived.”
“I thought I would continue like this, but later I found that living this way is meaningless.”
“Encountering you again, the position of God of Wealth is rightfully mine, and I can rest easy now.”
Hearing this, Qian Ya wanted to say something, but Qian Fangkong stopped her with a gesture.
“In terms of strength and ability, you far surpass this old ancestor. The Qian family is yours from now on.”

“Today’s achievements in this world have our Qian family’s contribution.”
“As a member of the Qian family, you must protect this world.”
After saying this, Qian Fangkong looked at Chen Changsheng.
“Can I ask you a question?”
“Yes.”
“Why can those people outside live so long? We can barely bear the weight of just a bit of age, how do they persist?”
Hearing this, Chen Changsheng looked toward the cycle in the distance and said,
“Cut off the seven emotions and desires, either through seclusion or self-sealing, time is merely a measure of lifespan for them.”
“To some extent, they are no longer human.”
“They are merely puppets executing a task, which is why they can live for so long.”
“If you want to live as a human, you must bear the weight of time.”
“How many beings in the world can bear the weight of time?”
After listening, Qian Fangkong nodded and said, “Makes sense, you are indeed you, seeing through worldly affairs more clearly than anyone.”
“I must go now, I can’t bear this weight of time any longer.”
As the words fell, Qian Fangkong rushed toward the distant battlefield.
Watching Qian Fangkong’s back, Xu Hu’s hands trembled.
“Son, I’m angry!”
“If you’re angry, don’t hold it in. There are people waiting for you outside, go.”
“Yes, sir!”
Saying this, Xu Hu rushed toward the sky.
The Sword God and the cycle were in a fierce battle, and some people hiding in the dark were preparing to strike when they saw the opportunity.
Unlike the cycle, these people wouldn’t engage in a head-on fight.
“Take this!”
Chen Changsheng threw a basin-shaped magic treasure to Qian Ya.
“As the God of Wealth, how can you lack a Treasure Gathering Basin?”
“I know you’re angry too, let it out.”
“Those guys are here to take advantage of the situation, they won’t fight to the d*ath.”
With Chen Changsheng’s permission, Qian Ya gritted her teeth and said, “Thank you, Xiancha!”
After Qian Ya left, Chen Changsheng slowly said, “Do you plan to personally invite me?”
As the words fell, Ye Yongxian and Wang Hao appeared before Chen Changsheng.
Looking at the somewhat unhappy Chen Changsheng, Wang Hao smiled and said, “We are protecting your safety.”
“Your current realm isn’t high enough, and if anything happens, it wouldn’t be good.”
Ignoring Wang Hao’s words, Chen Changsheng pointed forward and said,
“There are two choices: either descend to the cycle battlefield below, or fight those taking advantage of the situation.”
“Regardless of your choice, no internal strife during the battle.”
“My mood isn’t great right now, so I don’t want to say much. Can you understand my feelings?”
Looking at the masked Chen Changsheng, Ye Yongxian’s lips moved slightly, but he ultimately didn’t retort.
The Demon Emperor and the Sword God were facing d*ath, and Chen Changsheng’s mood had already hit rock bottom.
Recently, the Eight Desolates were in turmoil, and countless familiar auras descended.
If his guess was correct, someone in the cycle must have provoked Chen Changsheng.
Given the current situation, considering safety, it was best not to provoke this madman.
“Fine, I agree.”
“After this, there won’t be any other matters, right?”
“No, even if you want to do something, it’s over.”
“However, you’ll still need to assist in the cleanup after the Eight Desolates, and you seem to enjoy doing such tasks.”
After hearing this, Ye Yongxian ignored Chen Changsheng and directly flew toward the sky with Wang Hao.
