Chapter 131 The rise and fall of the sword for thirty years, life and death

The second day.

"Unfilial disciple Zhou Li can no longer serve his teacher, so he just... left..."

According to insiders, Zhou Lie suddenly felt something strange and sat cross-legged on the withered flowers. His mind began to blur and he murmured, then he sat down and passed away.

After hearing the news, Chen Sheng was shocked and leaned back in his chair, feeling more tired than ever before.

His presence ran through Zhou Lie's life, and Zhou Lie's influence on him was extremely profound.

They are master and disciple, but also like parent and son.

He grew up watching Zhou Lie, from a child to a teenager practicing hard, then to a young man getting married, the joy of having an heir, the sudden calmness of middle age, the subsequent sadness of losing his wife and son, and his lonely death in his later years.

One hundred and five years, to an immortal, is an inconspicuous period of time, but it feels very long to him.

It seems that he also spent his life in this experience, deeply aware of the ruthlessness and fleetingness of the world.

"Xiao Zhou Lie..."

Luzhu lowered her head and wiped her tears there. Chen Sheng regarded Zhou Lie as his own son, so she didn't. They had no children, and Zhou Lie's existence filled this gap.

Today, Zhou Lie passed away, and the sadness in her heart was no less than that of Chen Sheng.

"It's nothing, I'm here."

Chen Sheng felt sad, but when he saw Lu Zhu crying sadly, he had to go to comfort her.

He is always there and will not be found by those who care about him.

Until, he is still there, but the people he cares about will no longer be there, and one person can bear it all.

"Well, you are here."

Luzhu threw herself into Chen Sheng's arms and felt very warm. This was a good man with great power, but he could always take good care of her in every little detail.

The heart has the Tigers, fine sniffing the rose.

This is part of her understanding of Chen Sheng.

Zhou Lie was buried on a hill next to Yaolu. Chen Sheng could see him by flying over.

In front of the tombstone, Luzhu was burning incense and Chen Sheng was burning paper and talking in a low voice.

Not far away from the two of them, there were many people standing, including alchemists from Yaolu and relatives from Zhou Lie.

However, these people were very sensible and did not disturb the two of them.

Even people from the Zhou family can understand that their emotions and Zhou Lie's are not comparable to those of these two.

After the entire process was completed, the funeral ended and the crowd dispersed.

"Teacher, I'm watching you here."

At night, Chen Sheng was in the Longxing Hall, holding a candle, and he could see the tomb on the hill at once. He felt a touch of peace in his heart, and gradually got rid of his sadness.

Zhou Lieyi's momentum in Yaolu weakened. Regarding the new candidate for succession, several old people made secret recommendations, but Chen Sheng suppressed them.

The truth is, this is not a matter of urgency.

He needs to sort out his mood, at least in the next few years, he will not consider this matter.

Next.

Yaolu is running stably. With Chen Sheng in office, there is not much noise. Both the old people of Yaolu and the factions are working harmoniously.

This day.

An old man came to Yao Hu, and he was a person who made great contributions to Yao Hu.

During his reign, Yaolu had already developed very well, laying a solid foundation for Chen Sheng, and only then did he soar into the sky.

"Old Shen."

Chen Sheng was a little surprised, but he also gave him enough respect. This man showed great kindness to him, allowing him to legitimately inherit the position of the elder of Yaolu, and also gave him enlightenment when refining the golden elixir.

After entering the inner gate, the two discussed alchemy knowledge many times, and they could be said to be of the same sect.

"Long time no see."

Mr. Shen is very kind, his appearance has not changed much, his hair is neatly combed, and his clothes are clean, but he is much older.

"Yes, communication has always been in the form of letters."

Chen Sheng felt a little strange in his heart. This man had left the outer sect ninety-eight years ago and had been working in the inner sect.

Why did you come back today?

"I want to come back to Yaolu and have a look."

Mr. Shen's words were plain, but his eyes looking at Yaolu revealed a bit of reminiscence.

His affection for Yaolu was no less than that of Chen Sheng, and he spent most of his life here before moving to the inner sect.

"This is to test the performance of the juniors."

Chen Sheng said with a smile.

Over the years, he has worked diligently and diligently, which is not a bad thing.

"ha……"

Mr. Shen also smiled. For other successors, they may need the affirmation of their predecessors to consolidate their power.

But Chen Sheng is not needed. The power of this young man is now extremely powerful, and he can control the wind and rain in the outer sect.

Even if he became a powerful elder in the inner sect, he was not qualified to make a show.

There is equality between the two people.

No matter in terms of alchemy rank or status, he, a senior, has no advantage at all.

"There are a lot more buildings."

Walking in the Medicine House, Mr. Shen saw many strange buildings, which were no longer in their original layout.

"It was renovated before and expanded to thirty-six. In addition, there is the Lundao Hall, an open-air square."

Chen Sheng explained that the bottom floor of Yaolu has shown explosive growth. As the center of authority, for better management, it can only be expanded to accommodate more talents.

"It's different."

Mr. Shen sighed, feeling that everything was strange, and said: "As the saying goes, things change and people change. Now even things have changed, and nothing can be retained."

Nothing in this world remains unchanged, everything is changing and becoming beyond recognition.

Then it completely disappeared and turned into dust, dissipating between heaven and earth.

"Mr. Shen, why are you so desolate?"

Chen Sheng always felt that something was wrong. Mr. Shen's sudden arrival and his desolate mood all revealed that something had happened.

"I'm dying……"

Mr. Shen looked at Chen Sheng and said in a very calm tone.

"Why is it so fast? Is there any hidden disease? But it can still live."

Chen Sheng frowned and estimated in his mind that it was indeed quite close.

Mr. Shen has been away for almost a hundred years. Even though he was still young when he left, this period of time is too long for the Foundation Establishment Realm.

He was a little reluctant to part with him, this was probably the last senior he had a close relationship with in the outer sect.

"I can't extend my life. I have taken a lot of life-extending drugs."

Mr. Shen shook his head. He was also a second-level top alchemist. He was good at maintaining health and had no shortage of cultivation resources.

As early as thirty years ago, he took a lot of life-extending drugs, and this year is his final year.

"Do you have anything to explain?"

Chen Sheng asked.

Mr. Shen came out of Yaolu and was a person who made great contributions to Yaolu. If there are descendants or disciples who want to return, he will take care of them.

"No."

Mr. Shen still shook his head. He devoted himself to cultivation and used power as a tool. He entered the inner gate to seek the golden elixir path, but he failed in the end and had no more thoughts.

Chen Changchang sighed, Mr. Shen was a pure Taoist, but he, a younger generation, did not even have the chance to offer his sincerity.

When Mr. Shen left, he left behind his inheritance as a second-level alchemist.

In the same year, Chen Sheng received news that Old Shen had passed away, and all his elders in the outer sect had withered away.

…

starry night.
