Chapter 537: The Imminent Farewell, Chen Changsheng Has a Home
Looking at the three silent individuals, Chen Changsheng spoke.
“Speak up, why are none of you saying anything?”
“I didn’t ask for an answer right now; if you don’t know, just say so.”
Upon hearing this, Chen Xiang glanced at Ziping and Yin Qi, then said, “Father, you know me. Ever since I was young, I only wished to live happily. Being able to live happily is already enough for me.”
“Then are you not happy now?”
“Now I am certainly living happily, but without your guidance, I might not be able to do so.”
“Furthermore, I cannot rely on you forever, so I want to be happier by relying on myself.”
After listening, Chen Changsheng nodded and said, “I understand.”
“Yin Qi, what about you? How do you wish to live?”
Facing Chen Changsheng’s inquiry, Yin Qi smiled and said, “Father, what I aspire to remains the same as when I was young.”
“But this era isn’t suitable for me.”
“Understood, I know what you want.”
“What about you, Ziping?”
Gazing at Chen Changsheng, Nalan Ziping hesitated before saying, “Father, I haven’t figured out my path yet, so I still want to learn from you for a couple more years.”
Having received their responses, Chen Changsheng continued eating.
Once he finished the rice in his bowl, Chen Changsheng put down his utensils and said, “I understand your thoughts.”
“After studying for so long, it’s time to explore the Crimson Realm outside.”
“This is the task I have arranged for the three of you. Move toward this goal.”
As he spoke, Chen Changsheng took out three jade slips.
Looking at the jade slips in his hand, Chen Xiang sighed, “Father, are you not going to let us go?”
“Let go?”
“With your limited potential, you should learn for five or six hundred years first.”
“Additionally, in a short while, your Phoenix Aunt will return. If you don’t achieve something, I can’t afford to lose face.”
Hearing this, Ziping asked curiously, “Can Phoenix Aunt return?”
“She’s almost there. She’s working hard to break free from the Heavenly Path, and in another hundred or eighty years, she should manage.”
“The Eight Desolates are expelling some stubborn elements. Your goals are related to them.”
“These people are extremely wicked; you must be careful.”
After saying this, Chen Changsheng got up and left the table, leaving behind the various expressions of the others.
…
Night.
Chen Changsheng sat alone on a tree branch to admire the moon. A graceful figure slowly landed beside him.
“Big Brother Changsheng, you’re leaving, aren’t you?”
Looking at Su Wan’er with a hint of reluctance, Chen Changsheng smiled and said, “Am I that obvious?”
“If your heart isn’t here, naturally you will leave.”
Hearing this, Chen Changsheng pursed his lips and said, “There’s nothing left for me to do in this realm. I need to go where I should go.”
“Bai Ze hasn’t been seen for decades, even roaming freely across the realm.”
“From its behavior, this realm is heading towards a long period of peace.”
“A peaceful realm doesn’t need the gloomy existence of ‘Undertakers,’ so I must leave.”
Upon hearing this, Su Wan’er pondered and said, “Then I wish Big Brother Changsheng a smooth journey.”
“Not so straightforward, is it?”
“I thought you would be reluctant.”
Facing Chen Changsheng’s words, Su Wan’er sat down, hugged her knees, and said softly.

“Like Big Brother Changsheng, he is the perfect husband in Wan’er’s heart.”
“But Wan’er understands, Big Brother Changsheng does not belong to anyone.”
“Being married to Big Brother Changsheng, Wan’er is already content, at least I’ve surpassed that woman.”
Hearing this, Chen Changsheng’s eyelids twitched uncontrollably.
“Wan’er, who told you this?”
“Naturally, it was from Sister Hu. When Hu’s grandmother was beaten by a woman, I won’t elaborate further.”
“After all these years, Sister Hu has harbored resentment.”
“If that woman causes trouble again, Sister Hu probably won’t let it go easily.”
“Also, I’m not the kind of woman who lets others control me. I won’t give anyone face.”
Feeling the emotion in Su Wan’er’s tone, Chen Changsheng smiled helplessly, “Not that, why are you fighting with her? She has always been like this.”
“Fighting like this hurts harmony.”
“Her temper is bad, is mine any better?”
“Who wasn’t once the cherished child of the family? Why should she have to teach others with such a tone?”
Seeing Su Wan’er’s growing anger, Chen Changsheng immediately wanted to console her.
But before he could speak, a delicate hand covered his lips.
“Big Brother Changsheng, you are a great man. Women’s quarrels should be handled by women.”
“It’s petty for a man like you to interfere in these matters.”
With that, Su Wan’er hugged Chen Changsheng and kissed him deeply.
The warm and soft lips made Chen Changsheng momentarily dazed. When he came to his senses, Su Wan’er had already left.
“Big Brother Changsheng, tell that woman that I am your legally wedded wife.”
“If she wants to marry into the Chen family, she needs to call me sister.”
Listening to the echoing voice in the wind, Chen Changsheng touched his warm lips and smiled.
“Potato, did you meddle in this?”
“It was me.”
Hu Tǔdòu appeared before Chen Changsheng.
Looking at Hu Tǔdòu, Chen Changsheng grabbed him.
Bending down, he gave a kiss.
After a long moment, Chen Changsheng looked up and said, “You little fox, always mischievous.”
“When you dragged me up the mountain to recite scriptures, you naturally need to take responsibility now.”
“I’m sorry, I couldn’t give you what you wanted.”
“What I wanted, I’ve gotten. Countless women couldn’t get a name from you in their lifetimes.”
“Getting what others yearn for, I am already satisfied.”
“As for love between men and women, could it be more important than my feelings for you?”
Hearing this, Chen Changsheng held Hu Tǔdòu in his arms and whispered, “I have thought about taking the one I love on this path.”
“But I truly have no way to make you stay with me forever.”
“There was once a woman who traded her life for a fleeting moment with me.”
“I’m truly afraid of encountering such a woman again, for that feeling is too painful.”
Feeling Chen Changsheng’s sorrow, Hu Tǔdòu reached out and touched his face.
“Everyone seeks different things. That woman sought your heart.”
“I seek only peace, a peace that belongs solely to you.”
“You, Chen Changsheng, protected everyone’s last hope. But who guards your own hopes?”
“Wan’er and I are not warriors on the battlefield. All we can do is guard your peace.”
“Starting from this moment, you, Chen Changsheng, are a person with a home.”
