Facing Chen Changsheng’s words, the sixteen forbidden grounds neither attempted to seize the God-Slaying Weapon nor took action against Chen Changsheng.
They merely watched him quietly.
Seeing this, Chen Changsheng smiled and said, “Why aren’t you making your move yet?”
“I have always been an eyesore and a thorn in your flesh. Now that the opportunity has come, what are you waiting for?”
“If you don’t k*ll me, I will k*ll you.”
Hearing these words, Mao Weng said calmly, “Chen Changsheng, the fall of the Supreme Saint is indeed regrettable.”
“This world ultimately has your contribution within it. If possible, let’s just forget about this matter.”
Upon hearing this, Chen Changsheng was instantly surprised.
“Living long enough to see this, the people of the forbidden grounds actually advise me not to k*ll anyone. This is truly unprecedented.”
“However, unfortunately, I do not accept your suggestion.”
“The God-Slaying Weapon promised to you has already been given. I, Chen Changsheng, owe you nothing.”
“From today on, whoever obstructs my path, I will k*ll them!”
“The appearance of the sixteen forbidden grounds together is nothing but an attempt to make me give up the future.”
“No problem!”
“Pick up the God-Slaying Weapon in front of you and k*ll me. As long as I, Chen Changsheng, am dead, peace will reign immediately.”
Chen Changsheng’s voice echoed in everyone’s ears, and everyone remained silent.
If the return of the ancient forebears would reshuffle the entire era, then the insane Chen Changsheng would destroy the entire era.
The destruction of the era is something no one wishes to see, including the major forbidden grounds.
Time passed bit by bit, and everyone weighed their options in their hearts.
After an unknown period, the Ancient Forbidden Ground was the first to speak, saying, “The fall of the Supreme Saint is the greatest loss of this era.”
“Although our paths differ, the Ancient Forbidden Ground holds the Supreme Saint in high regard.”
“Since you seek revenge for the Supreme Saint, the Ancient Forbidden Ground will give you some leeway today.”
As the words fell, a giant hand took a box and left afterwards.
With the Ancient Forbidden Ground leading, the remaining forbidden grounds also took their respective God-Slaying Weapons.
Soon, the sixteen forbidden grounds vanished without a trace.
What Chen Changsheng wanted was rivers of bl**d, while the ancient forebears sought territory.
Compared to the damage caused by Chen Changsheng, although it was significant, there would be fewer subsequent troubles.
After all, Chen Changsheng did not want territory or treasures; after killing everyone, he would leave on his own.
It was precisely because of this that the major forbidden grounds decided to abandon the idea of killing Chen Changsheng.
After the forbidden grounds’ people had left, Wu Li and others slowly descended from the sky.
Looking at many familiar faces, Chen Changsheng slightly raised the corners of his mouth and said, “To see you all again is truly comforting. You all have really worked hard.”
Hearing this, Ziping said with red eyes, “Father, I want to stay!”
Looking at Ziping’s red eyes, Chen Changsheng shook his head.
“Ziping, harboring hatred in your heart won’t lead to a good outcome. You need to learn to let go of the hatred.”
“Only by letting go of the hatred can you live truly.”
“But…”
“There’s no ‘but’!”
Chen Changsheng directly interrupted Ziping.
“There’s no room for discussion on this matter, and I’m not discussing this with you.”
At this moment, Wu Li, who had been silent, spoke up.
“Teacher, the responsibility lies with me.”
“If I had followed Nalan out back then, perhaps this wouldn’t have happened.”
Seeing the somewhat self-blaming Wu Li, Chen Changsheng smiled and patted his shoulder.
“This isn’t your fault. The Scholar and Hua Yu are not children; there’s no reason for you to follow them every day.”
“When such things happen, one can only say they were destined.”
“Since the war has ended, find a place to rest for a while.”
“Jian Fei was expelled from this era. After so much time, he should have found a place to settle down.”
“After you leave, contact him.”
“By the way, give me the list of participants in the frontline battle. I need it.”
Upon hearing this request, Xiao Xianweng silently handed over a jade slip.
Having obtained what he wanted, Chen Changsheng waved to everyone.
“We’re all acquaintances now. Let’s save the reminiscing for later.”
“My mood isn’t good today, so I won’t play the reunion game.”
Facing Chen Changsheng’s “dismissal,” everyone looked deeply at him and then all left.
Once everyone had gone, the smile on Chen Changsheng’s face gradually faded.
Replacing it was an endless murderous intent.
At this moment, Chen Changsheng’s emotions were about to spiral out of control, but he still rubbed his face with his hands, forcing a smile as he said.
“Yade, I’ve seen you. Playing hide-and-seek isn’t your match.”
As the words fell, Li Niansheng walked out from the void in a crimson robe.
“Big Brother Changsheng always does this. Can’t you let me win once?”
“That’s not how it works. If you always let others win in games, what’s the point?”
As she spoke, Niansheng appeared in front of Chen Changsheng.
Her delicate hands stroked Chen Changsheng’s face, looking at the unchanged appearance, Niansheng’s eyes welled up.
“Big Brother Changsheng, you’ve grown old.”
“You girl, don’t talk nonsense.”
“I, Chen Changsheng, am the only immortal seed in the world. All living beings will age, but I won’t.”
Hearing this, Niansheng shook her head and said, “Even if your appearance remains unchanged and your lifespan is endless, your heart is already riddled with wounds.”
“My previous Big Brother Changsheng wasn’t like this.”
Facing Niansheng’s words, Chen Changsheng’s lips trembled and said, “The Scholar is dead, and the only friend I had left in this world is gone.”
“From now on, I will have no friends.”
“I know Big Brother Changsheng is hurt, but you shouldn’t hurt those around you, and you shouldn’t doubt them.”
“You know, even if they d*e, they won’t harm you.”
Niansheng’s words calmed Chen Changsheng’s emotions somewhat.
Holding Niansheng’s hand, the two sat side by side on the city wall.
“I know they won’t harm me, but the Scholar’s d*ath was too strange.”
“After the Scholar died, all the fronts began to collapse completely. It’s clear that this was premeditated.”
“And this war was unjust from the start, so the thoughts of those involved are prone to go awry.”
“If possible, I really don’t want to doubt them.”
Upon hearing this, Niansheng suddenly said, “Is Big Brother Changsheng planning to destroy the entire era?”
“Yes.”
“Although I don’t know why someone wants to harm the Scholar, those who wish to harm the Scholar must have a goal concerning our current era.”
“If I can’t guess who is behind it, then I will k*ll them all.”
“When everyone is dead, naturally there will be no survivors.”
“But the d*ath of the scholar wasn’t participated in by everyone. Will you k*ll those people too?”
